I must confess, the Mod 7 F/S on the yahoo group was mine. I went a little crazy with my holiday spending, mainly on gifts for myself. So I decided to list the knife on the forum. I was'nt looking to cash-in, I just wanted to cover my expences. Not that there is anything wrong with trying to make a buck, "after all we're not communists" (The Godfather). In the end I think I made like $10 which equates to like 15 miles in my Dodge. And besides I would much rather see the knife go to a fellow Yard Dog who will use it and appreaciate it. When I first started collecting Busse family knives almost two yrs ago I had a hard time getting my grubby paws on some steel but there were a couple of good chums who helped a fellow knife addict out by passing on some Busse's to me at real reasonable prices. So I guess I was trying to do the same. But thats enough sappy talk for me.
