You can call me GatMan! for short. :D:D:D

I'm looking forward to it. I'm actually going to make it a user, though. Got an avocado tree just BEGGING for a beatin' out in the yard. :D

Btw...how do you like the colors on those snake scales? I can't get a clear idea of them because they look different on all my computer screens. Seems like there's brown and purple in there. Whatcha say?
 
BTW...I'll send you a Minty Nuke Badger for that Satin/Tiger SFNO. I'll even throw in a couple ducats, and I'll give you first dibs if I ever decide to part with her.

You and I BOTH know you need another Badger...especially a beautiful custom shop one! :thumbup::D
 
There is nothing like a SFNO for a post-birth gift :D, just tell her its an investment and that it's value will double within a year.....probably will too :D
The ice camo SFNO was mine, but when I showed to my dad and he loved it, so I decided to give it to him. I keep most all my blades at his place (he's got a safe and more room than me) I usually only keep the users with me. Thanks for the offer though.
 
GatMan, the snakeskin handles are great,the colors are black, red, dark brown and light brown, what looks purple is probably the small amount of black, which tends to looks either light blue or green in some cases, the scales are canvas.

I hear ya, man. When I first showed my father my Springfield EMP (tiny 1911 in 9mm) he fell in love with it. He would casually mention how he'd love to own it, blah blah blah. When I sold my Kimber and decided to move to Glocks for HD and PD, I decided to give him the EMP. He was ecstatic. He gave me the S&W 6906 he had owned for awhile, and that was traded away for my first Busse...BATACLE #39.

I'm being careful about my knives with him. I bought him his first decent folder, a Kershaw JYD, and he LOVES that thing. He wouldn't really have use for a big FB, but with the beauty of these things, there's no telling, is there...?

btw...you have a PM.

Ha! It was the same with me. But it's my old man....what can you do. When I come over we take out the toys and sit around and watch some old survivor man episodes together. I get to see her on the weekends an holidays.....sigh.
 
Don't sweat it...you know it'll end up back in your hands. All you've done is put aside your own joy for a little while in order to make your pops' life more enjoyable for a (hopefully long) while. :D:thumbup:

I know I'll get my EMP and custom leather back eventually, but for now I'd rather he carry a gun he loves to shoot because that means he'll shoot more often, and thus be better with it. Hopefully that means a higher possibility for him surviving any potential deadly threats. :thumbup:
 
The funny thing about the SFNO is that he wont use it, he loves to look at it an hold it but wont dare cut anything with it. He has the best blade at his fingertips and he uses and ancient buck folder for all of his cutting chores.
P.S. The only condition was that he had to put it in his will, with me as the benefactor :D.

HAHAHAHAHA

Kinda makes us seem like Indian givers, but hey it's all fair. Truthfully, though, my pops spends WAAAAAY more time enjoying the American Fender Strat and Fender Amp wifey and I bought him for his and my mother's 30th wedding anniversary/renewal of vows. THAT was something he'd ALWAYS wanted, and just wouldn't ever buy for himself. The gun is just gravy, ya know?

I know what you mean, the look on his face always reminds me of Ralphie when he lays his eyes on his new Red Ryder BB gun.
 
Awesome collection! That frosted camo SFNO is simply breathtaking. No wonder your father doesn't want to use it. Great knives. Nice set of Razors also :thumbup:

Thanks Tree Herder V, the HR is probably my second favorite Busse. Its has that same SF handle, but the blade is a bit more "stabbier" :D
 
Great collection, and certainly not meager.

- Can you tell us what Garth did on that one, beside the scales? Strip it and DCBB?

- How do the new and old Ratweilers compare in feel and use?
 
:eek: ... :eek: ... :eek:
