Beautiful. Never seen one in satin before. Who did the re-grind ?
 
Lots of great looking knives here, really digging that EU17.

Still wanting a NMFBM, but life happens, went through a lot during the pandemic, a divorce threw my knife habit into chaos, plus I found the love of my life, bought a house, and remarried!

Hoping to get back into the game sometime in 23!

Anxious to see more grails guys, please share!

It’s all good. Just be strong. Find the things that make you happy regardless of outside stressors.

View attachment 2012628This has been my grail for many years now. I don't know why it's something about I love. Ideally I'd love it with black micarta scales and if the CS ever reopens I'm ordering it to put me out of my misery.
If ya get that chance, ask 'em to give you a little more thumb ramp up on the spine 🤔😉 Seriously, that band cutter could be a real thumb splitter.
I scored 2 of these & the Bowie variant with plans to sell the Bowie HR...I sold both Nuke HR's & kept the Bowie, just sayin' 🙃

Yeah you mentioned that before so if the CS ever reopens I'll take your advice. My search goes on 👍.

Well...at least I'm consistent lol 🤔😅😅
Hope ya get yer hands on one. I do love the way it looks, & it was not easy to decide to let them both go. Both of these were hawt variants but the Nuke HR has the heat 👍👍

Well you had one in hand so you definitely know better.
Yeah I missed one in the UK about 2 or 3 years ago, it just came in conversation that the guy had sold one not long before, so I asked him to put a word in for me if the new owner ever wants to sell it. The only other I know of is in China so I don't see that coming back. My hope was the CS but I've given up on that now.
 
Two grail knives, known only to the most porcine of the HOGS-

First-

There was a knife sold from the trunk of Jerry's car at the original HOG induction dinner.

Years later, I was offered one from a legitimate original owner, and I passed again.

Second-

Jerry has made and sold a folding knife, and I have never found one, though god knows I've looked. Even if you knew what to look for, I doubt none of you would either LOL
 
I have been looking for NMFBM for a long time. Finally found one few years ago from the original run and with absolutely wonderful Chuddy Bear sheath. It is user so as my grail knife. Not custom shop, not fancy, but it still means something special to me.

Probably sick of this pic but the top one is OG grail. As a kid, I used to see them in the Tactical Knives ads with the skeleton: "Just in case you can take it with you, better take a Busse, cause who knows where you're going." Though that was so badass lol. Great knives and great marketing!

still luv'n my pair of forsaken mistresses, had been looking for a replacement bowie after a theft. WOW, great performance in the aussie bush, worth more than my 4x4, got them to use and they are pure delight. Havn't bought another knife since. Good design and materials have blessed me with a pair of grails. The kids have allready called dibs when i pass. Thankyou to all the team and blessings for the new year🙃🙂
 
Zero Tolerance Satin Jack in close to mint condition (No sheath scratches) was my previous “grail”
