:thumbup:I just purchased my first Busse Knife from Pete Nannini, A Batac CG. This guy was outstanding to deal with. I, as a buyer, was having difficulty getting the funds together due to circumstances that keep coming up. Pete, was very patient with me and surely could have sold the knife to someone else, or blew me off for not having my act together, but did not. Not only was he a great seller, he spent alot of time emailing me, answering questions and giving advice on how to convex a edge, different Busse models and their uses, and even sent some polishing compound with the knife for free. The packaging was above and beyond, protecting himself as the seller, and me as the buyer, and spared no expense with insurance, delivery confirmation and the proper shipping container. Pete was first class all the way and made my first Busse purchase, a fantastic experience. Pete is a asset to BF and Busse/kin knives for folks like me, that are new to the forum and the Busse product line. Thanks Pete!
