SHBM picture thread

Who cares about Hammy


We'll go all Jungle on his azz..

This center one is that one that Ducci must have owned for a while and tried to make an SHSH out of it :grumpy:

I guess I don't have enough of them to play here

Wow!

Then I definitely shouldn't post anything.

Well ... maybe just a little:

And since Skunk got away with it:

There's an FBM in here somewhere,

These are all the current SHBM's I've got minus the one I'm having Ban do a satin job and orange g-10 scales (OJBM ). That's probably going to be my ultimate go-to

Paul, I see my baby, I miss her so. :grumpy:

That Jungle assault knife must be seen in person to be believed. It is amazing. I have never seen more angles on any Busse knife. Definitely the hardest knife I think Jerry has ever had to make. It is also a full 0.295 inches thick with coating which would make it a solid 0.275 to 0.28 without coating. A true Fatty.

 

[Tony G]

you got that new "LE" yet?

Yes I got it after the PO was sitting on it for a few days. It is #38

No wonder there's no good food in the house :grumpy: :grumpy:

 

[Tony G]

Oh and a huge thanks to Eli for finding this one out for us to enjoy again. :thumbup:

BUT>>>>>>>the ones out the door were something to see!

Lovin all these pics,but I was thinkin.The way some of these knives get sold and traded in a circle SHBM could almost stand for SisterHood of the traveling Battle Misstress.

HERE's one of those SHBM's I wish I could get back I didn't appreciate the grips until I'd tried all the others :

It's a sweet knife Dennis! I took some 120 grit carbide paper to it yesterday to get rid of most of the machining marks. I think I might go with a hi polish job on her after playing around with putting a patina on and all the knife was black and spotty.....it was cool looking for a while, but I really like a clean knife . It's looking better than ever, got a nice grain and after a tad more groove removal, the blade will be cherry. Put a 2000 grit polish on the edge. It's back shaving sharp now! If I ever sell or trade it, it'll be going back to you. OH! Do you still have that D/C SHBM I traded you?

Chicken Plucker: They DO move in circles for the most part. I've only sold or traded SHBM's (with the exception of one) to either get more or finance more! Cobalt's gotten quite a few of mine, and I his....also sent 2 or three Tony's way I think it's his turn to send one south btw.

*drools*

Dennis, the one that stumps me is that smooth scaled slotted screw SHBM that looks to be polished pretty well by hand? What's the story on that one? Looks sweet!

 

[Cobalt]

If it is the third one from the right in this pic? then it is a very early model identical to Lil Foo's hood knife and wasp knife. They were all ground with thicker edges and tips early on.

 

[pbubsy]

Yes! Cool! That's a sweet one! I'll bet it's never leaving the nest

If I EVER sell one the buyer needs to agree that it comes back to me if they want to sell. :thumbup:

And when I buy one I always ask if the seller may want it back.

But then I only traded one away once . and that was for another SHBM

.

 

[Cobalt]

Paul, if you do need to sell it, I definitely want it back. And yes that other one is a keeper. And no the DC is gone.

Funny thing about the circle of knives. They do rotate throughout the same people.

I have really thinned out the herd but what I have left with the exception of some dupes like an extra factory satin, the rest are staying.

Tony, the factory satin I was selling a week ago has the exact same grind lines as the #236. Funny.

Oh I agree with you,just making a little comic observation!

Tony here is the factory slotted olt satin that I had up for sale and took down recently when I sold the sharpened clip SHBM first. look at the grind and the circularish pattern, exactly like #236

That ... is a real beauty.

it is basically a negative to the black one you have
