My mind wandered while I was stropping my HR, and it somehow produced this:


When life pits against you the worst it can throw,
and all those around you are having a go,
but their blades are a-breakin' from e'en a small blow,
then take heart my young warrior, 'cos you're in the know!
For you're packing a Bussekin and it's not just for show,
It's the best hard-use knife - you can chop, pry or throw.

Whether you carry a warden or melted-down mistress,
you carry a blade that can handle the business,
of ripping through steel for emergency egress,
then carving a snare trap with delicate finesse.
This blade will not falter when even harder you press,
as you push ever closer to your endeavour's success.

For your trip through the jungle you don't need any more,
than a bushwhacker mistress to cut vines by the score.
As you slice your way through, you hear behind you a roar,
soon you're using that mistress to skin wild boar,
dig a firepit, built a shelter, sleep high off the floor;
This mistress won't kick you awake when you snore.

What if movies are true and the zombies attack?
Well then you just grab an AK-47 from your pack.
This isn't the one that fires bullets like flak,
instead it takes zombie heads with a reassuring "thwack".
You can make their heads fly if you've really got the knack,
then find those meddling scientists and give them the sack.

So get your ass to Busse Combat and make your selection,
Whatever you get, it'll be close to perfection.
You can polish it up 'till you see your reflection,
and just admire it like some do, I have no objection.
But for me, I like cutting stuff, that's my predilection,
And using a Busse Combat blade, well, it gives me an erection!
 
It would have taken me years to put that together. Very nice, and entertaining too. Thank you. Mike
 
You must have been stropping for a while to produce a poem like that. :thumbup:

Yeah, I didn't say how long I was stropping for.. let's just say the knife will whittle hair again now. I must admit that my HR doesn't see as much use as it deserves, but I like to keep it living up to its name.


Well said -- well written -- Oh Captain my Captain!

An even more appropriate quote right now for me personally than you could realise, given the great man's problems that seem to have finished him. Thank you.
