For me it started with the gateway knives...Scrapyard and Swamp Rat. Careful. There is neither cure nor hope

I am normally a pretty quiet person, but I have had enough. I am tired of Busse owners and their constant raving about their knives. Your constant accolades are now costing me money…… I now have two Busse’s on order and am considering a third. Really?? Enough is enough!!
I have heard about Busse knifes for years. Never paid to close of attention as I had the knives I needed/wanted and did not see the need for more. Then my favorite field knife broke. After a few tears, and more than a few adult beverages, I decided to begin the quest of replacing my beloved broken blade.
Based on my criteria for a replacement knife, and the perpetual evangelizing by actual Busse owners, I called up Busse and spoke with a lovely young lady named Lexi. She helped my pick the blade/handle color combination or a new TBLG. Thank you Lexi….I think.
It did not stop there. Just one week into my waiting vigil for the TBLG, I decide to give Trevor a call at Knife Hunters, and then proceeded to order a satin ASH-1 with the black and orange G10 handles. Trevor was very helpful and answered a ton of my stupid questions.
Is this obsession normal?? Will it end with just these two knives?? Please tell me there is some sort of support group where I can complain about Busse knife owners sucking me in their world.
Just remember...everything in moderation Chad D...

Now I am really scared. Next I will start selling off guns to support my "Busse habit".
Don't be scared, you are in good hands. No Regrets!![]()
