Hi all!

When I started collecting knives again last June and started get locking folders instead slipjoints, I bought quite many knives. It was fun but I usually spent $25 to $ 48 on good deal with Kershaw knives. Mainly on 13c26 blades, few 14c28. I was happy with them and I never considered getting high ends.Now after Christmas I got Spyderco Caly 3 and well I guess that's where I evolved... or my addiction grew worse. Next there was Zero Tolerance 0500 which would cost usually 4-5 Kershaw knives I bought last year... and I really moving towards Busse... Darn how did this happen?!? :eek:

I just paid a decent amount from Scrapyard Knives Dumpster Mutt which have been modified. Used but in good condition as I wanted good general knife that could take the beating and Scrap yard informed their warranty would still be on for knife, dispite its modifications as modifications did not broke the knife. I have to love warranties for Scrapyard. Busse and Esee companies. Which might be one reason I am looking at them. I am ready to pay extra on good warranty.

The thing is, I am really looking at Busse Game Warden and thinking if I should get that (though I have no REAL need for it) or twice as expensive Busse Choppers...

I promised to get fewer knife this year... appareantly I am making so but I'll still spend more money on those than last year... :p I told myself I never going to get Sebenza but if this goes on, heck I am not sure what do I have next year...
 
July 09' I bought my first quality knife [kershaw chive], then an 1740 Ener-g, Leek, and then I bought a Spyderco Endura 4 wave. 23 Spyderco's later I have up'd to Sage 1&2, Caly 3 CF, Native CF, 2 Paras, and now the leap to a CR Sebenza.

I feel you. haha
 
I feel your pain. Take a look at the Swamp Rat manuf. forum on here. They are currently taking preorders for some sweet blades. Swamp Rat is part of the Busse family. I've got two Ratmandus on preorder. Should be ready to ship in 3-4 weeks.
 
You think it is bad now? Wait until you get into custom knives!! ROFLAO!!
