Now, I am used to hollers, hills and cornfields, but I just got into the swamp! I have an HRLM and an RMD on the way and I just cant wait to get these knives dirty! I am thinking that the HRLM will gut a few deer this fall, and the RMD will... um I dunno, just cut stuff, or maybe I will gut somethin with that too. I am just excited! These are my first Bussekin knives and I can't wait to try em out!
 
CongRats! :D

Great first two Rats! :)
 
The HRLM is a no brainer when it comes to skinning. The RMD is much better at it than one might think! I was pleasently surprised to discover this. You have 2 great knives coming and won't be disappointed.
 
Nice score, man! Be sure to post up some pics when they show up.

Just got my RMD yesterday and it's totally badass.
 
I absolutely will. I am really excited about these two. I am about ready to start selling folders to get more.
 
Nice score! I love the RMD, but have yet to get my mitts on the HRLM. Will have to keep my eyes open for one of those!!
 
Welcome Jon! You found a good spot here bro. Good people and great knives :cool:
 
Jon,
Great score on a couple of fine blades. You are going to love them.

The HRLM is getting harder to find, might want to find a proxy for Blade show, while I can't say if any will be there, a couple showed up at Knob Creek a couple of months ago so the shop still has a few that they are sending to shows.

Just saying ;)

:D:D

Thanks for the heads up!! :D
 
Hmmm... I wonder what other previous models the Swamp is bringing to Blade...

Welcome to the Swamp, Jon! Good choice on two great blades!
 
They are here, I sharpened them all up, just waiting on pants for em now... They will be in the woods next weekend!

I LOVE these blades... definitely the first couple of many...
 
Great knives, my first two rats as well. The ratmandu did a fantastic job cleaning my deer last year! The HRLM is my permanent truck knife.
 
I thought the HRLM would make a good skinner! Actually, now I don't know which one I would use...
 
The sheaths are the pancake style from Azwelke. I got the ESEE 5 molle back and they fit on them perfectly. The HRLM has half the molle back on it and I put it onto my Junglas sheath with the Molle panel. I think I am gonna do something similar with the M9, don't know if I am going to piggy back something on it yet or not. I am thinking of getting the molle back for the ESEE 4 (a little cheaper and smaller) and using that instead for the other RMD, or, cannibalizing the one on the HRLM. Not sure yet. I love kydex, but I really like a drop-leg style sheath, that is why I did the molle backs on them. It was a little pricey though, 40-45/each for the molle back is not cheap, it was more than the kydex, but to me they are much more functional.

I hunt, and like to have a chopper strapped to the side of my pack if I need to clear branches when I am climbing trees. The molle back for me is essential.
 
nice collection. I got my first SR a few weeks ago. My second Buseekin and by far my favorite.
 
HRLM? Could someone please tell me what the LM stands for? I believe the HR stands for Howling Rat?
Thanks
