A couple of months ago I had the pleasure of playing with my friends Busse choppers and I quickly learned I had to get my own.

I picked this up about six weeks ago.

I used it in my first ever chop in and I was very pleased.

I etched the logo, stripped her down and hit it with a Scotch Brite wheel. I couldn't be more happy.

Nice! I love the way those look stripped- how long did it take?
 
AWESOME!!!!!!! Black canvas and nekkid infi is the BEST combo! very cool pics too man! :)
 
Looks amazing!

Nice knife! Have you swiched the handles of? I wonder what the stripper does with the handle material?!
Do you use some chemicals?

Congrats & welcome to the Madness!! :thumbup: ...She looks pretty damn hawt all nekkid like that. ;):D Nice work!
 
Wow that's a good job of stripping it, I'm a bit jealous I have always wanted an FBM.
 
Fyi stripper does not effect micarta or res c in any way. If it marks the micarta it will come off with soap and water.
 
Looks very good, the CGFBM is my all time favorite Busse.
 
Thanks guys. I'm very happy with it.

The handles are original. I used Klean-Strip KS-3 premium stripper and it did not affect the handles at all.

The logo etch looks awesome. How difficult was it and what did you use?

Thanks. It isn't difficult at all. I used Radio Shack PCB etchant solution. All you have to do is build a damn around what you want to etch with some painters tape and put the etchant on. I let mine set for about nine hours. The longer you let it set the deeper it will be. Just make sure it doesn't leak through because you definitely don't want the etchant on any other bare metal part of the knife. I think my daughter and I checked it about every half hour. OK, I was checking it and she was tagging along and rolling her eyes lol.

She sure is pretty JD, so, what are you gonna get next?:D

Thank you and whatever they come out with next...I'm hooked. CGNMFSH? :)

You can do it yourself for sure.
