....have not had much time to play with the camera this year but today the weather was right and I had a half hour on my hands. Took a few snaps out by the pond... :D

My Battle Grade ASH1 that arrived this week ....



The Sabre Ground Fatty that will go in the ground with me I suspect...



One of the Mountainmandus taking a bath....



and with the sheath Dave Brown made for her...



And one I waited for :D :D a Custom Shop .22 with hand shaped black canvas...



and with a sheath Mashed Cat (Eric) put together...

Wow,,, lovely additions Andy! Do you have a preference between the hand shaped or textured micarta,, or apples and oranges?
 
Thanks all... Photobucket seems to knock the sharpness of the images a little but they look OK.

.... I struggle with this....I got two CS .22s in my quest for just "one" .... LOL The other is machined Black and Green G10 I also have a couple of skinnies with machined canvas.... I really don't know which I favour...I am leaning to the hand shaped though.
 
Oh man... great shots, great knives--the fatty is pretty awesome, but I imagine the thinner stock has to be the better all around performer--is that the case, Andy? I know you just got these, but maybe you can advise a man hungry for some ASH based on the ones you have.
 
Ooh! That Tanker Grey Fatty!!
I'm in love!!!!!! :D

Congrats on a great haul Andy!!!!!!!! :thumbup: :thumbup:
 
You have all the cool toys Andy. I got one of the BG ASH's and now know why you like them so much.

..... thanks mate... :) You know that really is the $64K question. My head says that the .22 should be the best all rounder, but I have not found anything that is prohibitive for the .32. Those fatties feel so good in hand as well...now throw in the .25ish of the Battle Grade as well...ahhhhhhhhhh !!! I just need to convince Busse to make me a .25ish ASH in INFI... ;) ;)

Thanks man--my TGLB is .25 and does well all around, but I often find myself reaching for my Hell Razor which is .187 or so--glad to hear that the fatty is a performer as well, she certainly is a looker... such a nice collection of toys, brother!
 
The .25 BGASH is the only one I've experienced but I can't imagine a better size or weight for myself.
Just hefty enough to feel bombproof, yet still fast enough to feel dangerous.
