Busse photo thread.

Oh that makes sense.

No, the tape is something they do at Knob Creek (and I would assume at Blade, but it was new to me at KC) so there isn't a table full of hair-popping sharp blades being bumped into by everyone. When I bought these, they had the tape on them, then they were packaged in the cardboard, wrapped in tissue paper and packing tape. Secure, tight little packaging. It's a little bit of a pain getting the tape and residue off the satin finish, but a very understandable thing to do at a show like KC.

The pork shank...I'm not sure if I'll keep it. I'm with you on it being very nicely done (as, I'm certain, anything from their Custom Shop is), but I kinda just grabbed it as an afterthought in the hopes I can find it a 'loving' home through a trade towards something higher on my want list. Now that I've had it for a bit (still unused), it's kinda grown on me...I'm still far from the point of having non-user Busse blades, and it'd seem such a shame to scratch it up.

sir I can promise you after using many of busse's that is what they are made for. the steal is awesome and such a joy to maintain and sharpen. the beauty of busses is the using of them. (well for all but bobby. no matter how much I plead with that sob he won't use his )

Won't be using this one either.


She sure feels good in the hand though.

Oi ve! that is, um, sexy?

What model is that a mojo?

If you don't mind what did it set you back (yes, I know its worth much more than that - but it might give me more gumption to hit the next KC!)


I really wish I would have went - the badger prototypes were at a price point I would have been unable to not pick one or two up if possible :'(

The knife went to Knob Creek but I'm not sure it ever went public. I bought it second hand so I had to pay a premium. I know the Mojo variant that Roenman posted on bladeforums had a sticker price of $1027 and then you had tax on top of that for a total of $1096.30. It was only a single harpoon though and I don't know if this one would have been more or not.

Proof that I do have ugly users, although I think it's time for this one to find a new home.

 

[grunt soldier]

did you buy that off the USN? I tried to buy it from him but got beat out.

 

[bobbystoney]

Yep, got it off the USN. Carried it for a bit but I've never really like how the GW fit my hand. Not sure why I keep buying them thinking that maybe I'll like the next one.

I'm scared to buy a game warden. I'm afraid one will turn into five real quick lol.

the only way he can get ugly users is to buy them from someone who actually used them

Picked up the Ratmandu custom and the 311 "zombie killers" at Knob creek. The Rat has a sadow camo. I like the B11.

 

[devil07]

I picked up another Busse a couple days ago. Replacing my first Busse, that was so rudely stolen last year. It's an ugly little user.

Behold, my new (to me) stripped SJTAC: (Not my pic, I'm just using the one from the listing.)

About 17lbs found today between my and my daughter.

 

[slimplmbr]

That's a hell of a homey hole there!

 

[grunt soldier]

Bobby is that in Lafayette? I haven't found any yet? Are they finally up?

 

[bobbystoney]

It was in Otterbein.

 

[M67]

It was in Otterbein.

Otterbein?

Ewww

 

[Bradsknives]

It was in Otterbein.

Otterbein? Isn't that just northwest of Lafayette off of US 52 where they dump nuclear waste? I think you better let me have those rooooms.......they could be harmful to your health.
