Anybody else fling the door open when they hear the truck? Got my TGLB today, although it's a little bittersweet because it's got the wrong handles on it (ordered black G10... I think these are black canvas) so I can't go out and abuse it until I hear back from the shop.... It's still pretty though!

Lol

I just met my UPS guy at the curb to get my NMFSH and HACK
 
Personally I consider Micarta a big step up from G10, but it is a personal preference. Either way, enjoy. The knife looks amazing. It piqued my interested enough to add it to my long list. :)
 
Sorry to hear abt that man. They'll make it right. They always do.

My UPS and Fedex guy have my cell # and I have theirs. They call me when they have something for me and tell me when it's going to be there. :thumbup:
 
I prefer the micarta as well. Get what you paid for but just keep in mind as a user micarta seems friendlier. I like black and green so I get g10 but if busse had it in micarta i would go that route every time.
 
No actually the people I think are weird are the ones you see peek out the window then wait for you to get back in the truck and start driving away. Just always seems strange to me. I deliver a lot of gun parts to customers that react the same as you did. I'd call that normal. Just bringing back that feeling of Christmas morning. 24 year Upser
 
I'd take black canvas over G10 any day... I really prefer canvas micartas.

But yeah, if I'm expecting a package and I'm home I do the same thing.
 
My dogs alert me when the UPS truck arrives...they're buddies.:D He's cool, even alerting me to a custom knife maker fairly close to me!
 
They will arrange the problem surely.

...but to tell you the truth, after owning many knives with G10 and micarta handles also, I have to say micarta is better.

It was a luck, not a mistake. :thumbup:

Tanker Grey? Brilliant knife!
 
Hi, not-yet-a-busse-owner-but-saving-up-for-a-TGLB here. May I ask why you all prefer Micarta over G10? (Or am I polluting/derailing this thread then?)
 
It's good to know I'm not the only one who gets excited when the toy truck comes. ;)

The toy truck! lol !

Pretty much how many of us feel.

As far as G10 vs Micarta? They are both excellent options as far as I can tell.

Not ups but im thinking that my local post office employees think im a junkie ordering pills off the internet lol because i always track my packages and catch them before they get delivered because im at work and they will never leave it in my mailbox just the little card then when i go to the post office they say she has it with her on the route???? Why do that why not leave it there since you know your not going to leave it in my box???
 
I don't know what she is getting, but the woman across the street from me gets a UPS delivery 2 or 3 times a week. The "Big Brown Truck" always shows up between 1100-1130. So when I know I have a package coming, I'm waiting and looking out the window starting at about a quarter till 1100. When I see the truck, I'm out the door and waiting on my front porch for him.:D When my Crusader arrived, I was on the porch waiting for him. He dropped off some packages across the street, then crossed over but went two houses down from me! I thought he was going to the wrong address, but he had a package for them too, then walked up the street to my house. Those were a long couple of minutes waiting for him to finally get to my house! It's just like Christmas when you were a kid every time the "Toy" truck comes to your house! Am looking forward to the truck bringing my AMSs and the Dave Brown sheaths I just ordered for them. Christmas again in a couple of weeks!!!! Yeh!!!:thumbup:
