Jeremy does great work. That looks good. He wants to get out of the Busse modding business and asked me to start doing mods. I'll need some more equipment to turn out work that good. That hamon line looks awesome, CP. It's a beauty of a Ratweiler now! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> HD he said in his forum that it was his last mod,not sure if he was serious. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> He is developing quite a following for his own designs. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> He sent a pm to me about it over a month ago. I think he is serious. I am sure I could do it with the right equipment, but I don't know yet if I want to work that hard. On the other hand, I guess there is money to be made in modding Busses. I think Ban is doing his own knives now, so maybe an old man will have to do it. Somebody has to do it. There is always the Busse Custom Shop. That RW of yours is the prettiest one I've seen! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> The equipment is just an investment HD. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> You have what the rest of us wish we had. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> Talent <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

I'm a hack. I don't even remove the scales to sand the flats like I should. I just leave them rough and buff them a bit. But flat sanding is easy. I've done it on Rangers, where the scales screw on and off. Been messing with the Outlaw today. Got a loooooong way to go. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/Busse/SFNO001.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/Busse/SFNO006.jpg)
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

I'll be covered in INFI dust tomorrow. Doing a full convex satin grind. Too cheap to buy the LE.

Drop on by. I have been out on the firing range a bit lately, so best call first. Got to get everything ready in case there's a revolution or something. I wouldn't want to miss it because of unzeroed rifles or dull knives! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Better to be prepared and not needed than be un-prepared and needed. Something like that! Anyway, I love the way we think around here!

CP, That is a GORGEOUS Ratweiler.... Satin is best! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Satin with a Temper Line is a VERY nice Bonus! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Satin with a nice Temper line and a good convex edge..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Looking good Vic. I have been wanting to strip my NMSFNO as well. But, add it to a pretty long list I have going. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> .... I still haven't bought any new belts for my old belt sander for quite some time as I STILL want to upgrade my belt sander and can't because I keep spending ALL and MORE of my availabe (and NOT available) cash on Busse and kin knives. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/paperbag.gif" alt="" /> - A good/bad thing depending on what part of me you ask. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> It was SO awesome to be able to get a satin M9LE with a great satin finish and NOT have to freakin spend so much time trying to make it right and NOT have to spend $250 - $300 more for satin.... Heck, the entire M9LE knife "WITH" a satin finish costs LESS than just the upcharge alone on similar sized Busse blades. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> I WISH Swamp Rat released more knives!!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" /> ..... and I HOPE they keep releasing SATIN blades at reasonable prices!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />.... I LOVE INFI, but SR-101 does EVERYTHING I need it to at a MUCH better price. Granted, I still would prefer INFI's corrosion resistance, but I am REALLY fine with SR-101. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> .
