Here is a pic of most of my snakeskin. Maybe a couple of others laying around now. Interesting that the snakeskin wasn't my favorite, now I wish I'd bought a few more pieces.

i could look at this picture forever... *sigh*

I really want to pic up one of those satin ABAs with snakeskin one day.

So, uhh....Eric, how many do you have left and do you want to get rid of one?

I could stare at this thread for hours.

Lisantica, I'm jealous. You've only been into Busse for a very short time (not that I've been here long) and you've already swooped in a scored 2 amazing blades that I'd kill for. Congrats.

Did anyone ever stop to think, maybe they want snakeskin handle on their Busse is because it's so hard to get? Does it feel better physically or stronger then G10? Or is it because it's next to impossible to get so everyone wants it?

It didn't use to be hard to get. It used to be a common handle material. Only recently has it become rare.

Someday you should sell me that little fella on the bottom.

Just so you know, that lil dude is Tim's EDC... If he's wearing pants, he's wearing that knife. Good luck!

Here's my snakeskin's. All pics taken with dodgy iPhone.

FFBM. God I love this thing:

CG BATAC. I think this might be my all-rounder (at least until I buy another SFNO LE):

The coating appears to change colour, depending on the background. Observe!:

And this BAD. I have never held a knife that looked and felt as good as this one. Thanks KH!:

One more pic to try and show the snakeskin in different light.

Group shot:

I thought BUSSE ran out of snakeskin 5 years ago.

 

[lisantica]

Maybe he bought it used. That's how I got my snakeskins.

SH-E LE With original Raptor Snakeskin. I think I've seen maybe one or two other Raptor Skakeskin handles.
