Thanks for looking.

She might be making a trip back to Wauseon though...
I think somebody was drunk at the grinder for the holidays. :D

the bevel on the clip point (opposite the logo side) only got about one pass on the grinder.
I'm thinking about having the shop even them up...
and maybe thin the handles down a little while she's there. :cool:

A few more pics for ya...

Holy Crap! That's one gorgoeus score, L'il Foo! Congrats. :thumbup:

Is it a full convex grind (maybe it's just the lighting.)?

That is nice, straight from the custom shop or something you sent in to get fixed up?

I ordered it as a custom shop piece fall of last year.

I think it was right after I found out I didn't score one from the KnoboGanzaaaaa (?)

She sports a full flat grind, and transitions to
convex starting about a 1/4" from the edge.

And she's a portly .283" thick at the ricasso. :thumbup: :D :cool:

I am speechless...what a beautiful, beautiful blade!! :thumbup:

A girl needs a knife....
 
Can I have it?


















That is one gorgeous Mistress.
 
Well, that is ONE SWEET PIECE of INFI there, Foo... Very cool, brother! :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup: Nice pix. :D
 
Thanks for all the great comments...
She really is a beauty... my new favorite Mistress! :cool:

I think Boss Hog & Garth were feeling the Christmas spirit...
either that or it was all the JWB :D...
Or maybe it was because I told Busse I ordered it back in '98 :foot: ...
but they gave it to me for only $347. :eek: :eek:





Just kidding :D ... it wasn't so cheap... but it IS worth every penny! ;)
