Okay guys, here are the rest of the pics. As I said in an earlier post, the cash ain't great but the perks are wonderful (if you are willing to wait, beg, cajole, threaten, and cry alot).

Anyway, here goes - "it" appears to be a 3/16" thick 7 1/2" long Battle Mistress - Satin blade with a straight handle and a pommel that resembles the "birds beak" of yesteryear (which would make a great skullcrusher). And she is straight from the infamous "minds of Wauseon!".

She is fast, light and quite the cutter....

Perhaps you could put in a few good words to Jerry about this new-fangled 3/16" stuff :D .

Great variant, and I think you made some great design choices on it (if you got to make the design choices).
 
While I may not actually live in Wauseon, I certainly includ myself in that "infamous minds of Wauseon" crack !!

Wait to you see some of the new Custom stuff we got coming!
 
Lets talk this out,
It's 3/16ths, straight handle with a satin finish.
Very good start, throw in a clip point, add about a hundered of them, and what would you have?

How about a Busse Forum Knife !!!!

These could be made to match up with the numbered Dog Tags....
A limited Edition for those that supported the war.
What do you guys think?
Pretty good idea, huh...?


PS. can you make mine with tan handles :)
 
That is one awesome knife. So when is that bada$$ sweetheart going to be ready for my grabbing :D
 
OOH! OOH! OOH! 1whobuys: He's my hero! Great ideas! Not just "pretty good ideas"! Let's get those Variants into the hands of the Dog-Taggers! Pant, Pant! Woof, Woof!
Contender -- you can be my hero too! There's plenty of Room here!
May your mind continue to live in such "infamy" ....! :D
As an aside -- wouldn't they be considered Steel Heart Variants if they are 7.5" Blade-length, instead of BM-Variants?

Stomper has it right!
i'm Dog-Tagged Number #27... Woof!
My Satin Jack LE is #38, tho, so either would do, for me!

Forum Knife, now where have I heard that before ;):D:D
1WB's good idea, I really like matching them up to the Dog Tags. :)

Contender,
Nice looking knife, I'll have to look into this ;):D
 
WOW!!!

Any chance we'll see any current INFI with old school SH pommels?:D

I love it when the Man is up and thinking at 5:30am........

Nice to know I wasn't the only one up.:) Physical inventory in our plant started at 5am. Walked around looking at piles of raw materials the guys were starting to count and weigh, and I just kept thinking, INFI,INFI, INFI.

Starting the day a nuclear way.

Probably just woke up in his car in the parking lot and came on into the office. Too late to go home...

Yours in Nuclear Ribbing...
