In saw that noss video and bought my first scrapyard shortly after, and never looked back. I see all the blades released in previous years and in the years I've been hanging around very few new releases. I keep waiting for new designs from the yard and even Busse.
This!!!
They keep recycling blade shapes and using different steels and switch handles, but it's still pretty much the same old stuff.
Well, my thinking is that the entire BKG is heading back to the old model of sales where the Yard is back to. Busse seems to be also, not sure about the Swamp though.
That being said, in order to continue hitting a certain price/performance ratio it would make sense from a CNC standpoint to just use designs that are already programmed.
