Hamish, WELCOME! You are going to love Dan's blades and the folks here. We talk a lot of information (so if you have a question, don't hesitate to ask) and just chattering among ourselves. We also like to have fun. Just remember one of Dan's most important rules, This is a Family Friendly site and he wants it to stay that way. Other than that, IF you bring up other manufacturers blades, compare them to a Busse kin (Busse combat, Swamp Rat or Scrapyard) blade and you can almost rest assured you will be just fine.

Just read the rules and regulations sticky and you will fit in like you were born here.
