Excellent choice. There used to be a thread here that listed all the best excuses to tell your wife when the new box arrives. One option is to tell her that you traded for the new knife. We probably should revive it again.

" I didnt' buy it, I traded for it " .... yeah right

X2 plus I also ordered a Tan/G-10 Mag...
April sometime is when they should start shipping... WooooT!
The main reason I asked specifically what you were looking for is the you could always call AMY and see if they have any returns or left-overs at Busse. Never know, might luck out... Got an Urban Grey/Tan FBM this morning by just asking about it a couple of days ago... WooooT!

benjammin: I understand your frustration as do all those waiting for the rerelease of the SFNOs 
. But I did want to point one thing out regarding the seconday market. Just because someone turns around and sells a knife they just bought does not mean there is something wrong with it. For instance, I can only afford to buy/own/use a few blades at a time. If I want to try a new knife I have to sell one to get one. I have often purchased a knife via co. store or secondary market to test it out. Then if it just isn't for me I have to sell it to try another. And most of the time I took a loss due to shipping and insurance. But the way I see it it is a small price to pay to actually get to hold/try the knife out first. Good luck bro.

Good luck bro.Yep, I was just poking fun at how Jerry's set up his system to keep us all drooling. I'm sure the secondary market knives are just as good, and considering the warranty, as someone else pointed out, if there was a problem it'd be easily fixed to be sure.
I have noticed that there are a few folks out there who do re-sell at a considerably higher price than the original offering went for. I guess the bottom line is it's a fair market principle, much as I don't like paying more, I prefer this to the alternative, which is all the cheap knives I could want, cheap meaning worthless in this case.
I've also learned that all good things in moderation. Much as I would like to go broke buying up all the Busse I can find, it is far better for me to pick one up once in a while. That way the swelling goes down in between purchases.

Hi Amy-O
BTW, any idea how long till that order will be filled and shipped? That way I know when to medicate.
My wife still don't know about my last purchase (tan Ak-47), I ain't got up the courage to break it to her. This time I ain't home to intercept the mailman, so there's no way to stop her from finding out, then whatever story I give won't matter. Besides, she checks the credit card transactions too. I am doomed.
So now that I am gonna take some lumps anyways, you got anything else you wanna sell me?

benjammin, i just want to friendly let you know......you can buy my knife, "IF" i am selling...hehehe
They are all like new factory condition, never use, carry or else. Usually I'll sell them when i see a camera equipment Ithat I want badly and I can't seem to pull the money. Then I'll sell my least least favor Busse or a Busse model that I have more than one.
With all that said, only "IF" i am selling.....hahaha

benjammin,
Wow, that was fast!
Congrats on the BATACLE purchase! that's gonna be a Sweet blade!
I've got a CG tan/tan ordered myself.
My wife can't see the stuff on my secret account.. but Sneaking the packages into the house is the hard part!
I've shadowed my mailman, he's a consistent bugger.. pegged his delivery times to 2:22pm +/- 5 min.
so i just drive by the house on my lunchbreak to Intercept the package
a couple times she was Outside!
"honey look! did the Jones' paint their fence??"
(throws package into bushes) "hmm.. oh i guess not"
whew close one!

Thanks to modern technology, the only safe bank account I have is the mason jar out back I planted at 2:00 am, at least I think it is still there...
As for selling of the grown women, I am afraid I am not old enough just yet that grown women are of less value to me than a knife. Even so, two of them are daughters that are about to be classified as Klingons if they don't quit picking my pockets. The third one would cost me more to get rid of (legally anyways) than it costs to keep her around. Reminds me of an old Jerry Reed song...

I may sell all but a few of my knives.
I went to a stereo shop to have my Audio Note Pre Amp re-tubed and I was introduced to some Audio Note speakers an Audio Note Power Amp.

Did I just hear SHBH and sale in the same sentence??
Your not wrong Cobalt... they would go so quickly, that you'd get people posting threads saying they'll take it, before you post any FOR SALE thread!
ROFLMFAO!
