You always remember your first

My own road to perdition began with a Ratweiler, purchased from Tyrkon Lawson (miss that hog) in June 2006. A Father's Day gift to myself. Still have it. (sorry, pic challenged after Photobucket phucked us)

Many $$$ worth of blades in and out since then. I used to joke that I had spent little resingirl's college fund on Busse blades. Not quite true. We spent it on private schools after she was bullied out of public school in 6th grade.

No Regrets. We launched a wonderful young woman into independence.

And I still have way more knives than are reasonable for my current situation.

YMMV.

My first was the TGLB. I will never part with it. And I have used and abused it alot.

My first was a Scrapyard Scrapper 5 when they were originally sold. Still have it, along with quite a few of its brothers and cousins.

Way back in 2013. Custom Shop Pumpkin RMD. Unused for $175. Thought that was a steep price for a knife. I’ve wised up since then...
Yes. I still have it. As with all my Bussekin. Photo? Currently safe-kept in another location.

Try Imgur, I have used it since Photobucket got greedy and it works great, even easier

I sure do !!!

My first Busse

A SteelHeart E, I got from Aundre (Papathud) many many years ago 2001 or earlier.

I thought 300.00 was really expensive for a knife back then. LOL

Luckily I was able to trade sheath work for it .

Still have her.

what a ride it has been

What are your firsts Busse-kin ?

Old sheaths

Whoa, Dave… Do you still have that NOe? I have one that needs pants badly.

That particular one ? Nope
But as luck would have it, I did just get one, so I can make you a sheath, send me an e-mail and I can fix you up.

My FIRRRRST Busse was a skeleton warden with some scales the previous owner had fabricated to be attached by screws through the talon and butt end holes.

Then it was a pumpkin SAR3

THEN a pumpkin BOSS Jack
