Mark,
I have Busse tastes on a Scrap yard budget to sat the least. My ONLY Busse is a Game Warden I bought last summer. It was hard as heck to get a decent edge on!
"I use a commercial sharpening machine for knives "
The Micarta handle seems small and IS very slippery! Cost over $215.00 delivered to my home.I'm sure Busse makes a Cadillac of a blade but I can't afford to shop around and find one. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />
ALL of my Scrap Yard knives are affordable and EVERY BIT AS TOUGH OR MORE!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" />
My Scrap Yard Knives are my first choice EVERY day. I carry a blade on my neck,one in each front pocket and one and sometimes two on my belt.
One is a art knife,one a custom folder,then anyones guess as the other three. but for sure one will be a Scrap yard Knife. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
I am so sold on the RES-C handles I can't begin to say. I am in home and business cleaning and countless times I have opened commercial soaps and degreasers with a Scrap Yard Knife and soaked the handle. IT WILL NOT SLIP!
Greatest stuff ever! Comfort when doing a 10 minuet chop on a 10 inch tree? No sores no blisters only comfort and no shock transmitted. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" />
These Scrap Yard Knives are nutty! My Yard Keeper LE will ride today because of your incoming. I now need to feel it and use it today to refresh my memory of how good that 4" blade really is! Thick,tough,sharp as a razor and Res-C handle...got to get dressed now...feel naked! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />
Thanks for the input! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
Peace.
