Thank you very much for the comments kraz, horndog, and knifeguy...I just went ahead and purchased it, so I was lucky indeed...good points about the rarity and nature of Busse/SwampRat/ScrapYard, I was not completely aware of how they sold knives...

The DMLE was a bit pricier than what I had in mind, but the only other fixed blade I own is a $9.50 Mora...so its time to treat myself...

I cant wait for it to arrive, and will post pics <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Best regards, JB...
