Have truer words ever been spoken ? Been going through some rough times and just sort of need someone to talk to , or tell too I guess . So I'm turning to my fellow dogs . Hope you don't mind .
Anyway , this time last year I was new to the whole Busse , Scrap Yard and Swamp Rat thing . Well it didn't take long for the addiction to set in lol . My first one was a Busse Basic 6LE , then I found the Yard and got a Dogfather , a 511 , a 711 and THE KNIFE I had been looking for from the start , a Scrapper 6 . I went on to buy a Busse Basic 4LE two Busse Skeleton Keys , three Busse BOSS Streets , a Busse Magnum Bear Cub , a Busse Satin Jack TAC and a Swamp Rat Ratmandu . Not bad eh ?
That's what I thought too . Then certain things in my life started taking a downward turn . One that would leed me to having to sell nearly ALL my knives . Actually that's not what upsets me most . Some I had already sold to buy others as I'm not really a collector and am much more of a user , so I didn't need all those knives . What kills me is that when I started selling them off I looked at my Basic 6 and my Scrapper 6 and thought I don't need two 6 inch knives and I sold my Scrapper thinking the Busse HAD to be better (dumb a$$) . Because I had more money tied up in the Busse I eventually sold it too .
Actually I sold all of them except my Dogfather (thats NEVER going anyway) and my little Busse Magnum Bear Cub which has become my EDC . Now I so regret ever parting with my personal grail knife the Scrapper 6 . It would be the perfect mid sized knife to fill the gap between my little Bear Cub and my chopper the Dogfather .
So there you have it . I HAD my grail knife in my hands and let it go . Didn't know what I had till it was gone . If I'm ever lucky enough to find one at a price I can afford I will buy it and like the Dogfather it will NEVER be sold . So don't jump too quickly guys . Sometimes it's better to just set them aside for a while and think about it a little longer before passing one along that you might regret later .
Thanks for listening and before I end this I would like to say that I hope all my American friends had a great Thanksgiving .
