what knives did you get this year?

I'm sure that I could live large on what Jaxx spends just on knives. Throw in his "refreshment" expenses and I could retire quite comfortably.

Not a collector,I beat the shit out of my knives but since their Busse's I don't need a new one every year BUT I did acquire a Rodent Solution,finally got a sheath for my Badger Atak and next week I'm trading a Remington 521T to a friend for a SAR8LE so I can finally retire my poor old SHBM.
 
Add to my 2013 total: a just purchased HOGFSH. More Steel Hearts!!!...Cheers.
 
LOL, Got 2 more David Mosier flippers incoming. :D:D

With much thanks to Mr. Butch Harner for the homemade piece of blue jeans denim burl micarta, this one, called the Orchard (a Mosier/Bharucha collaboration design) is meant to resemble a pair of Levi's jeans. Intended to be carried and used, I wanted something different than the average folder with just a titanium frame or Ti & carbon fiber that is so common these days. I wanted it to look as comfortable as the jeans I wear most days and David really nailed this one for me!! Just by the pix, I think it turned out really well.

Hand rubbed satin CPM 154 blade, IKBS bearing system, antique bronze finished eggshell Ti frame & bolster, Butch Harner blue jeans denim burl micarta, blue anodized clip (which I think will only blend better & better with the burl on the front as it picks up rubs and scratches from carry & use that get through this anodized layer to the natural Ti color underneath), and red G-10 backspacer. :thumbup:

...Now the reason I posted these pix here in the Busse forum is because... ;)

Hey, GARTH!!!! ...How's about gettin' in some blue jeans denim micarta for the Custom Shop, please!!! Doesn't even have to be like this burl, but I really would love to see some similar looking material on some Busse's, brother! :D:D:D :thumbup:

The other one is a new and currently un-named very cool prototype flipper I scored just yesterday in David's open bid auction he held on his website. I plan to start a thread in the custom knife forum later tonight with some pix. :)

Have you seen the Red Burl that Butch makes....OUTSTANDING!!!! Not that the Denim is not the Red Just Pops....

Hey GARTH.....Denim Bro....:thumbup:
 
Lots of good stuff in this thread...my list is not nearly impressive as some of the previous....but it was still a great year for knives for me.

3 RMD's - two were gifts for my brother in laws, one sold on exchange recently
1 Rodent 6
1 TGLB
1 ASHBM (waiting on this one)
1 Rattlehawk
1 Blind Horse Knives machete
1 Blind Horse Knives Woodsman Pro scandi grind
1 ZT 0561
1 ZT 301
1 Spyderco Delica
1 Sog Tomahawk (nice little thrower)
1 Bark River Bravo 1.5 (sold this one)

Yikes! I guess I bought more this year than I realized, I hope my wife doesn't see this post! Of all though, the TGLB is my first Busse, and I'm really impressed with it. It lived up to the hype for me.
 
Just got an Ontario Ranger Afghan with a custom Skyestorm leatherworks sheath as a gift. Very nice, thing's built like a tank. I'll be doing a review on it soon if anyone's interested.

P.S.: Jaxx, nice firefly reference in your signature. Keep flyin'.
 
I just gotta chime in here..... If Busse EVER comes out with a folder......PLEASE, DON'T FORGET US LEFTIES. Make it so we can change the clip's position.

Thanks.
P.s. Sorry about the "shouting". Just wanted to make sure that I got the message through.:)
