So,not knowing your city personally I want take a chance and give a compliment back to you for the dog in your avatar.Albeit loving dogs in general,I say the bulldog blooded are usually the best,not much comes close! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Hola! Welcome to the Yard.

Howdy and Welcome to the Scrap Yard boef800 ! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Tom

Welcome to the Yard Alex! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Busse offers the edge grind of your choice: Convex, V, or Assymetrical. The primary grind depends on the specific knife, they have done nearly every concevable grind so far from full convex to the new corrugated bevel.

Swamp Rat has always used a convex edge with a flat primary. Mostly as primary grinds go they stick with a 3/4 or saber grind, but i have full flat grind Rats.

The Dogs seem to follow the same tradition as the Rats.

I can't say I've visited your fair city, Alex. But my wife has been there and loved it.

Thanks for the compliment. The dog, however, is not mine. I came across his picture recently and felt he represented the true spirit of the Junk Yard Dog. So I "borrowed" it for my avatar. A recent acquisition from The Yard compelled me to change my avatar again, however. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

May I then suggest next time,if she by any chance plans to visit Cologne again,you insist on being taken with her and we'll meet for a little SYKCO summit?! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
