New SHSHII arrived today... PICS ADDED

[gleason128]

So after being delivered a day late, not the sellers fault, weather and usps I finally got it today. It's awesome, not a mark on it. It's thick and feels great in your hand. ( I think I've heard that before somewhere...) the spine has an awesome polish and its a really nice contrast on the black coated blade. Pics as soon as I get to a computer.

Congrats on the great score.
One of my all time favorite Busse knives.
Glad I was able to score a few.
Looking forward to pics.

I was eyeing that SHSHII when I saw that you grabbed it - great score! I guess old hogs slow down at some point.
Like Mulder, it is one of my favorite Busses. Looking forward to the photos.

Also an appreciator of this classic - I have three (so far). Nice snag...;-)

I saw that matching shbm in the exchange and thought about it lol
Thanks again I'd like to use it but don't think I can bring myself to do it.

I'd like to use it but don't think I can bring myself to do it.

That just means that you need to find yourself a user now. Beautiful blade, congrats

That is funny! I did the same thing years ago with a SHBM - I bought one in really nice condition and then bought a user (and I was glad I did).

That SHSHII looks fantastic! You got the premium sheath also (not all of them came with that sheath). Thanks for the photos, and congratulations on a great knife!
