INFI is good :D If you dot like it you will be able to get your $ back. In this video, you can see what the thinnest ash1 can take. Stevie Wonder could of ground it better then him but the vid clearly shows its a tough hunk of steel. You wont be using your knife like this but it gives ya an idea of what its capable of.

Be sure to watch the later parts, gets real juicy.
 
yea i watched that one earlier and seen the other one he did with a busse, that is cool, but i want to see some real world use =) i dont have many concrete walls to cut through or missing steps to use my knife as

Well, ya just never know when you might need to cut through a wall, or need an extra step, DO ya? And if ya do, and you've got your ash, well then, ya got an extra step, a wall cutter, and a log splitter. (Small logs) :D

I have a BA and a Heavy Heart, both of which I've used to make kindling for the fireplace, and the Heavy Heart I've hammered through some pretty thick Hickory and Oak, with a Hammer on the spine with no problems. Busse knives are sharp enough to handle carving duties (depending on size and what you're trying to carve) fuzz sticks for instance, and tough enough to cut through CMU Walls and Cars. :D

Busses are WELL worth the money imo, especially since they are guaranteed. :thumbup:

I'd pick up the ASH before someone else does. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised ;) :)

ETA: I've chopped through wood and dug the blade of my Heavy Heart into the slate under my wood stove and had no chipping of the edge! These are by far the best general purpose blades I've ever used.

ETA 2: And they're not bad throwers either. :D
 
i just picked it up for 280, as stated before it has been stripped but the edge has not been touched by a sharpener, it isnt very sharp at all, but ill change that shortly, also it my excitement within 5 min of been home i made a fuzz stick, for a dull thick knife it did very well
 
Infi is a really durable steel and takes a good sharp edge and holds it well. I think you got a great deal and you could easily get your money back if you wanted to. So congrats and enjoy your new knife and post some pics.

Welcome to the Madness:D
