Well as one Basic Hog said of the Basic 9

".... well where else can you pretty much get a SHBM for $300?"

OK now it is 350-375...

What is an SHBM???? I have searched and can't figure it out. I got the battle mistress part.

thanks,

SHBM - Straight-Handle Battle Mistress.

And it ain't no SHBM - it's got an almost Ergo-handle angle to it. Which is better than a SH.

Can't wait to see the knife-huckin pix.

Here are two Basic 9s with three various SHBMs. The point being that it is a heck of a lot of Busse blade for $300-400. The three SHBMs here would range from $1,000 to $1,600. The top SHBM is a 1-300 and is my user :thumbup:

Very nice TonyG! The Basics need more love!

Very nice TonyG! The Basics need more love!

With users I don’t switch around much.

I find that -for me- it is important to know what the knife will do and won't do and that I learn to trust them, so I very rarely switch users or add them.

Right now I have a warden or two that I use, an old MS, a custom AD, 1-300 SHBM, and a XXXL NICK.

I have used and retired (for now) a LMrS, older snake AD, CGFBM, and a SHSHII, a Basic 5, Basic 3, CPDABA… and I think that is about it for my time with Busse. I’d love to find a SHBA user and an older smooth micarta MS user. I may be missing one or two but I think that is about it.... well unless you count using 10 GWs as steak knives.

As I think about it I, over time I have moved to slightly thicker knives.
