What's wrong with this picture?

Attached is a cropped version of a pic Tony G posted on another thread (thanks Tony, I plan to use it as wallpaper on my work computer).

A satin-finished SHBM with long swedge, hand-shaped black micarta scales, solid pins, half-moon pommel and old-school Busse logo.

In my opinion this represents the finest Busse knife ever created. It is a work of pure lethal art, devoid of any design flaws whatsoever.

So... what's wrong with this picture? I don't have one. Or three.

But my real question is, if Jerry was willing to release an Anniversary version of the Steel Heart 1, what kind of public outcry would be necessary to spark the release of an Anniversary version of what is essentially the Battle Mistress 1?

Even if he did another "1 of 300" run, but done up LE style like the SFNO. Yes, it would cause mass forum rioting, and no I probably would not score one, but I'd at least give it a shot...

Eh, the SHBM's never really did it for me, even when you buy them all day long for $400 to $500 a couple of years ago.

Eh, I'm sure he will, in another 5 or 10 or 15 or 20 years Till then, I'm just gonna sit here and NOT regret the two I let slip through my fingers (though one did get me my grail knife!)

BLASSSSSPHEEEEEMERRRR!!!!!! lol

I really like my SHBM, but have yet to actually HIT anything with it b/c of the price I paid. My dirt-cheap SHSHII I can use b/c it's pretty cheap in comparison.

Yes, that's the problem with those darn vintage Busse knives. Which is why we need an Anniversary Battle Mistress, so poor people (speaking for myself here) can beat them and not feel bad about it later.

So, let me guess, you got #1.
