What is the most abusive thing you've done with your busse?

I'm in the same boat as Ban for the use, with the exception of a rock here or there I didn't see while chopping or splitting. It nice to know they'll take what you through at them though.

PM is every football lovers hero and probably a tinner after that move.:D Well done:thumbup:

spent all morning chopping ten penny nails in half to disprove some guys claims that he chipped his battle mistress doing the same.....
 
I've actually liberated one from Gravelface's collection, I should have a whole boatload of INFI karma coming my way after that.
 
...Smacked a #&%$in' doe ( a deer, a female deer...LOL) eating my landscape shubbery, hard on her hindquarters with the flat side of a FBM CG. Wait... Most abusive done to a Busse... or WITH a Busse??? LOL :D
 
lol... my most abusive moments have been with the other busse family knives.

the worst (dumbest) was stabbing a plate of glass out of a fish tank. took a while to sharpen that mistake out.
 
I and a friend used my well worn Basic 9 to dig and cut the roots of some very old cedar bushes out of the ground. This thing ran into rocks, root, bricks and all sorts of other junk and it came out laughing. Mere edge rolling here or there when it something really bad. Strop it right out. I also used a regular old hammer to beat it through some logs to make smaller tinder for a camp fire. Dinged the spine up since the hammer was harder, but that is all it did. I wailed on that thing, if it were a lesser knife I am sure it would have snapped or cracked from the beating I was giving it.

I have used smaller blades like the AD or GW to open beer bottles and tin cans. It makes a handy bottle opener. Strabs showed me the technique at Blade one year. Just stab that mother through the center of the bottle cap and push the blade from 90 degrees to parallel to the table top and there you go. I am not sure of how much stress this puts on the tip, but I sure wouldn't use anything else in my day to day. Busse truly has me spoiled. I look at other designs and makers stuff and think that is kind of cool, but then the voice in my head says, yeah but it isn't a Busse. :D
 
I cursed one once for biting me straight out of the box,when i laid her in my draw her sister bit me also,..i guess there is nothing stronger than blood and when its a Busse drawing it you better look out!:eek:
 
Hit a nail with my BM-E during my infamous 2x4 chop. Never even marked the blade. I was shocked!

A girl needs a knife...
 
Chipped the tip on a Howling Rat from throwing it. But then I ground it out.
 
Asi: which model did you manage to break? How did you cause damage to the blade? Photos would be extra nice in this regard.
