Had I not been at Disney World getting monetarily sodomized by Mickey and friends I would have been all over this awesome blade when it was available.
Hello to my Newbie Friend.
Please allow me to give you a bit of advice. Please take it or leave it.
When a fellow BF member and Busse fan puts up a pic of his/her latest pride and joy, you have a several choices. You could congratulate them. You could say, 'very cool. waiting for mine'. You could say, 'that thing is a beast!' You could say, 'love those scales'. You could say, 'cool pic!'
You could say, 'that knife is stupid'
But why?
This forum is intended as an extended community to share our collective enjoyment on the Bussekin knives. When your fellow member shares a new happy thing, one does not have to rain on his parade. I see many knives here across BF that I personally don't like. My response depends on the context of the thread. If someone posts, 'here is my cool new knife!', and I don't like it, well, then, I choose to not piss on his post. But if someone asks, 'what do you think about Busse edge angles, or this knife, or, this steel, or...'; then I am happy to share my frank opinion because it was asked for.
Play nice, make friends, build community; that's what this forum is for.
Now, to the rest of you, when you post 'here is my cool new knife!; please do not assume that my non-answer is in some way a judgement. After 10 years here, I don't necessarily post in every thread. I could be tired. I could be drinking. I could be happy for you, but don't feel like posting. Enjoy your new knife, as I do mine, and continue to enjoy, and build, enjoy this community.
Let's Drink!
So cool. I was late to the train station, so I'll have to settle for an infi B13.
I have a monster kukri 10mm thick an 14" long blade..an I find it more useful than all the smaller ones.. huge knives are quite handy..imho
$1,400 is a bit overpriced for a knife that has very little utility purpose imo... you can buy 3.5 BB13 combat grades for the same price lol
I'll take your analogy one step further,, I wouldn't go to a Dead show if you GAVE me tickets,, just not my cup of tea.Lets put this in perspective...
The Dead, yeah, they're awesome. Seen 'em a bunch.
But you could see Splintered Sunlight like 3 times for the price of Dead & company... 4-5 times if ya drove, and have to park your car.
Ya dig, China_Cat_Sunflower?![]()

Different folks different strokes.
Sorry, my tone maybe didn't come throughDude's screen name is the title of a GD song. That's why I posted that. Let's not get into musical tastes, or lack thereof, on someone else's thread.Cool?
