Lets see your UK Busse's

[tom jones]

Hi Guys
Lets see what Busse's have made it over the pond to the UK.
This is all I've got so far. I still need to get more Infi but it's a start.

Thanks for looking
Tom

[stabber]

Joel Only seems to be doing Kitchen Hackers now

 

[David Brown]

I wonder what it looks like now

 

[tom jones]

Hahaha much much better since I met my brother David

Is there a recent photo to see how things are now nearly 8 years later.

Do they still let you have long pointy knives in the UK? I know they banned "zombie knives" or "zombie killer knives," and what's better for killing zombies than some TG variant? I mean, Daryl Dixon, for chrissake! it's like THE archetypical zombie knife!

 

[tom jones]

Yep so far we can, but probably not for long.
The Zombie knife thing is probably the craziest law (totally pointless hahaha). Can’t have a green knife because it has a mind of it’s own and thinks people are zombies.
Some people have suggested that we no longer need large kitchen knives unless we are a chef, others think that grinding the point off all kitchen knives would save lives.

It's crazy the laws they brought in there but they don't know how to deal with the problems they are having. My cousin is a trainee paramedic in London and seemingly knife crime is gone mad there, but criminals don't worry about these laws and colours of blades. So far Ireland isn't as bad for enforcement law wise, but you wouldn't want to be going around with a TGLB on your belt in Dublin.

I read back in 2005 that researchers from West Middlesex University Hospital had determined that long pointy knives have no legitimate culinary purpose. "The researchers say legislation to ban the sale of long pointed knives would be a key step in the fight against violent crime." It was published in the British Medical Journal, so you know it's right.

Here is some more recent photos of the ones that have made it over the pond.

So when I started this thread I only had the 3 Busses.
8 months later I took my first trip to the USA and met the awesome David Brown who helped me get a MOAB into the collection
Without all of David’s help over the last 8 years I would never have been able to build this collection.
David is a true gent and wonderful friend, to be honest he is a member of the family and my brother now.
The photos in my last post are how it grew from 2011 till 2014 , then at Blade I got to shake the Bosses hand at Blade.
Little did I know how dangerous meeting Jerry would be I caught a serious INFI addiction that night.
Jerry was amazing, I was unable to play in the trough that year because of an injury and Jerry asked me which models I was after?
I said a SOB and a TG14, Jerry then told me to see Garth the next day and he would see if they had any left.
The next day I was able to pick up a TG14 from the booth and was gifted a SOB too ( that SOB will always be with me because it was from the Boss himself).
Sorry for all the rambling but the last 6yrs have been tough and this place has been a great place to hang out and take my mind off stuff.
Took some more photos today of how the addiction has grown since 2014.
Hope you like them

You got the Infi fever
Fever in the morning

Hahaha yep INFI is addictive stuff.
But also the customer service, the Busse crew, all the guys on here , Dan and Jerry make it even more addictive
