Hopefully this hasn't been done already, but we see a number of Busse/Bussekin knives that are pristine or showroom new but where are the ugly ones?

Looking for the workhorse Busse's that are like the F-100 with 500,000 miles with the original equipment. The Busse's that have character earned through constant use. They won't be the bell of the ball but are the ones you reach for when there is a job to be done.
 
This is a great idea! I love seeing users that have been put to the test. Bring on the pics everyone. :thumbup:

When did Toyota make an f-100?:D
 
Pound 'em, whack 'em, beat 'em--they just come back for more...

Busse's are amazing that they can be users/ abusers and still be stunners!
I love these threads, and I hate them at the same time because 9 out of 10 times, the OP never posts any pictures!

I wouldn't exactly call this Mistress "ugly", but it is the one that earned my faith in INFI after a "slightly mad experiment" (search those words for the thread ;)) and has traveled over 6000 miles cross country & back to Washington State as a "goodwill ambassador on loan", so to speak in addition to using it myself...

New, first use 6-1/2 years ago:

Jaxx, I've always wanted a CGFBM, but after viewing the Slightly Mad Experiment, you may have pushed me over the edge!!!!!!!!!

It has that effect! After its trip out to visit with mymindisamob, he snagged one, IIRC. Great Mistress, still my favorite version.

Nothing ugly about the Lil Ugly if you ask me. Wish I had one.

Well, when you & the Bossman are ready to get on with the Lil INFI Ugly, count me in for a few! ;) ...Needs something (other than G-10) resembling that old school micarta ...or some denim burl micarta would do nicely! :thumbup:

Okay the gauntlet has been dropped for me to walk the walk, so I shall. Even though I've only had my two for a couple of weeks, both the GW and Sarge 7 will have their baptism of fire shortly. Tree stump will do fine for the Sarge but got to find something for the GW to skin.
