I agree that every serious knife user and collector should own INFI. But one INFI knife is plenty for me. When it comes to Busse family knives, I'll stick with SR77/Res-C for choppers and camp knives and SR101/Micarta (or G10) for utility fixed blades. That way I can stretch my Bussekin dollars and still get "superior performance to price ratio" knives.
I will say this, it really sucks now that I have crossed that line, I got my first Busse last year, the ASH1 and was thrilled with it and glad I finally had a piece of INFI. The one Busse blade I always wanted was the Mistress so when Jerry released the NMFBM and I got the wife's consent to buy that I jumped. Next came the NMSFNO and I figured I would round out my collection with it, that way almost all sizes were covered, then came the BATAC. Then I decided to try out Fehrman's knives, love them too but they are also high dollar blades. I guess what I am saying is my wallet is hurting bad now, I really need to get off this expensive knife kick and back down to reality before I find myself homeless.... (at least with all the knives I have I should be able to build myslelf one hell of a house in the woods <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
