It was a hell of a long day but, after coming home grouchy, found a very pleasant surprise in the form of a post office pickup slip. My ASH-1 LE (#62) had arrived already, a good couple weeks ahead of when I was expecting it. So, 15 minutes before closing I managed to make it in and pick up the package. At this time I really wasn't sure about keeping the ASH1, especially in light of a recent layoff....but then I unwrapped it and picked it up. This knife is PERFECT! Its light and nimble yet has heft and enough thickness to feel substantial. The mag slabs fill the hand out nicely and the fit and finish are flawless. All in all, this is my excalibur and theres no way its leaving the fold now :thumbup:
Thanks a million to the Busse crew. You all outdid yourselves on this batch.
