Holy xxxx! Can I swear here? Too late!

After spending a day fondling this slab of INFI, I am starting to regret the last few years of knife collecting/using! I cant believe how over built these tanks are. I have owned many custom/quality knives, but this damn NMSFNO almost puts them all to shame. My go-to knife for years was an Esee6, but after getting to know my NMSFNO, the Esee feels like a damn toy(But I still love/respect Esee's very much). I have found that some custom/hand made knives are sometimes lacking the perfect fit and finish I expect, but this Busse is second to none in workmanship. I can see the effort and skill that went into it. Before it showed up, I was on the fence about making it a user or a collector, but there is no way this isnt coming quad'ing with me.

Well done Garth and everyone else who had a hand in making it. It will never be this shiny again.

Nice looking knife ya big jurk (had to sell mine and I am still bitter/jealous).
 
You really jumped in, It's gonna be hard to top that.
Congrats on your decision.
 
Great pictures!

Thanks! To be honest I have never tried taking quality pictures before and I was pleased the way they turned out. I usually just point and shoot with my cell phone and hope for the best. I think I found out its all about the lighting!

However, just a quick note concerning your post...

Inappropriate language is not permitted here and throughout most of this site as it is considered a family friendly forum and many young knife knuts do have access to what's written here through their parents' computers. I edited it out, and ask you to please watch the language in future posts. Thank you.

...Now go beat that NMSFNO! :)

Fair enough! I actually expected the site to put "***" over any words that were not allowed like other sites I frequent. Sorry about that. If it wasnt a miserable cold rainy day outside I would already have had some fun!

No worries, man. :) I know what you mean with the auto edit, but there are a few sub-forums here that allow R rated language, and that option is only either site-wide or off. All edits are...handcrafted, LOL. ;) :D:D

But I do understand your enthusiasm, because that's a helluva great lookin' NMSFNO. :thumbup: Enjoy it...and welcome to the Busse forum! :)
 
Nice first. Will make a great user.

The NM rounding makes them especially hand friendly.
 
So whats next? You just can't stop at one.
Something small for detail/food prep and a heavy chopper?

Aw I dunno. I would get another NMSFNO in crinkle or an ASH or even a SFNO would work. Between knives and guns and jetskis and quads the wife is going to kill me any day now!
