Nice pics!

Alas, my Dad had already carved the bird by the time we arrived. He smoked it the day before, it was delicious :)
 
Well... No bears 2 days in a row, but I'm heading back out tomorrow morning. Hope I bump into him on a trail he's frequenting.

Oh and.... BUuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuMP! :D
 
Basic 8 is such a cool knife. No regrets on this one. What was the price of em at the time -- anyone remember? Great deal, if I recall.

If any Busse is a bargain at $327, it's the Basic 8 -- great, great knife. The ASH-2 has big shoes to fill. Just tell us Garth, which is better? :D
