Could some of you who have Assault Shakers and Active Duties please post pictures of your knives and the sheaths you use for them in the pictures thread? I am primarily interested in the dead cows. No offense to our friendly local plastic benders, but I just prefer the warmth of meat skin.

And yes, this is an acknowledgement that I have two new Busses in the fold, thanks to Brother Bravado. I'll get pics up when I get a chance.

Rick - now waiting for Skunk to have some satin finished HOFSHs in the store.
 
Thanks, Peter, but I know what's available. I want to see what people actually have and USE.

Rick - feeling somewhat sheepish
 
Now THAT was helpful! Thank you.

Based on the other thread that was just started, it appears that I'm not the only one who was interested in getting these into the picture thread(s).

I have three different variations that I rotate daily, and use daily, and I mean USE. I'd take a few pics but they are so ugly now from sweat, dirt, and rocks etc that I am embarassed to show em off! :o
 
I'm kinda partial to this one from the guy above my post!:D

Sorry about that vitriolic response. I had just spent two hours in a public hearing listening to someone who assumed I was an idiot lecture me about the perils of plutonium (Pu238). The irony was that he knew less than your average high school senior and refused to listen to any explanations as to why he was wrong. Since the press was there, I stifled my urge to choke him senseless. You just happened to be the lucky recipient of my repressed anger.

I apologize. Please try not to hold it against me.

I also edited the original remark so I don't come across as a total jerk when this enters the big archive in the sky.

Rick - contritely

I can sorta figure that ASS stands for AS Sheath. What does the BAD stand for?

Good on yah man. I have days like that and lose pints of blood biting my tongue. I find that takin' a busse out and chopping down a forest helps. I'm sure some guys will come across some used sheath pics. Come to think of it, I may have one.... Lemme check

No problem whatsoever. :)

The last day of Grade 9 high school was almost as bad as your day. (I am not exagerating here) I had to spend four and a half hours in the gym watching and listening to the Grade 12s getting awards. The only problem was that the room was 34 degrees celsius (Sorry to my American friends, I do not know how to convert Celsius to F :rolleyes: ). I couldn't fall asleep as a teacher was drifting between the rows, like a vulture, waiting to harrass the first unlucky soul she found falling asleep. Strangely, the local TV crew was their for the ceromony or I would have gone to the bathroom/ just left (They were blocking to door :rolleyes: :( ). Anyways, I managed to stick it out for 4.5 hours until we were released from that Pit of Culcutta. It really was painful. At the end of it all I was a time bomb getting upset at everyone too. I am sure I came across that way here too. I will take this time to appologise for the way I undoubtedly sounded.

I find chemistry interesting and I do well in it, but lectures of any kind are not my style. In actuality, they are not that productive anyways. I don't know about you but my attention span only lasts about two hours if I am not interested. Then, it happens to in one ear and out the other.


KAAK, is right. As soon as I got home from the incident (see above) I went up to my safe, grabbed my EU-17 Magnum and went to the local conservation area (You all heard nothing :D ), and removed some trees, then split them into firewood. I chose dead ones as I want my children to enjoy nature and the wilderness as much as I do and I have to do my part if I expect others to.

Again, no worries. :)

BAD-ASS = Busse Active Duty - Advanced Sheathing System

I believe Gundy & Raden came up with the name back in april '03 while waiting for the sheath from Leatherbender, a.k.a. Dwayne.
http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=251165
Yep, that is about the jist of it, Gundy started the whole mess when he saw a pic of one of Radens sheaths by another maker, the rest is history. The names have gone from descriptive to downright silly now :D The name for the AS sheath is ASS Shaker. Somewhere we have all the to date ASS sheaths that have been done. As far as variations of the basic theme? At least a half dozen so far, its a pretty flexible style of sheath. Theres even a kydex/fusion ASS shaker out there somewhere. ;)
 
Seeing that mess cleaned up is what makes this forum so great. It's like friends venting on each other but still holding the friendship true. It earns my respect.
Peter,
C to F. Double and add 30 will get you to within + or - 1 degree.

That's far too easy! The full-on conversion is ((9*C)/5)+32 = F

If you want the technical derivation, consider that the 0C=32F and 100C=212F and you can figure it out from there.
