2 weeks seems pretty fast for pre-ordering.2-5 months has been bsse's track record with pre-ordering and with dan in the same family and shop why would it be any different.we will see with the hairy carrys.
its the fact that the supply is no where near the demand that makes this after market so unique.
usually a knife that has been used is sold for less than original cost.people beat the hell out of their knife,get a whole bunch of mileage out of them and then sell them for more than original cost.where else do you find that?
so if things werent the way they are now their wouldnt be an after market like this which is both good and bad.
at first the whole thing annoyed me which i think is normal.how many time have we seen a new guy come around and ask why he cant by a dumpstermutt from the scrapyard site.i got over it.i dont care anymore.
at the end of the day this is what makes busse lengendary weather convenient to us or not.jerry knows this and it is why he does this.
if he ran his company and sold knives the same way as the "other guys" than he would just be like the "other guys" regardless of quality.just another company with good knives.
