interesting point on the definition of Grail knives, I can see it either way but my personal definition is a blade that under no circumstances would I part with, a blade that I hold in the highest regards (Favorites).

Pretty soon I expect I will be able to say I have my grail knives. When the S5LE arrives...the others are the Zilla...an Infi Khukri has been a very long wait...to me it feels great...worth hitting the "weights" for so as to build up "user" stamina...my Hossum machete covers off the other use requirement...and that's it. All done really...but I might hold on to a FSH though for a middle sized option and might check out a thin BM if Jerry brings one out.

I have already thinned out the edge on my KZ. It is evil. A Busse Khukri is for sure a grail knife.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

I think of a "Grail" as something I'm after... once I have it, it may be a "treasure" but I'm on to the next quest. The Regulator is definitely a "treasure"! Oh crap! Does that count as a review? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

I just scored my grail knife not too long ago. It's a BMe black/black with factory sheath. ![[Linked Image from i126.photobucket.com]](http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p83/Dirt_Diver/Busse3/Picture002.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i126.photobucket.com]](http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p83/Dirt_Diver/ZIP%20LINE/Picture057.jpg) Next one I am after is a SHBM

Man, that BM-e sure is sexy... I want one of those badly! Of course, the new Bushwhacker might replace it nicely for my needs <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Got my Grail knife. Camp Tramp black/black sterile Jeff made up a very skookum sheath for it, far better than I had imagined. The picture that fired my imagination. Got the knife, got the fishing rod now have to get the fish. ![[Linked Image from i292.photobucket.com]](http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm35/d_filgate/Camp%20Tramp/gctrout.jpg) I love that photo too...although I'm sure I would make a mess of cleaning trout with my CT! For me Camp Tramp, SS4..my S5 is growing on me fast.. we'llsee actually I don't have much but grails! My new Battle Rat is AMAZING and I have a lot of love for my howling rat...

That is a nice picture, but a Bird Dog would make more sense than a Camp Tramp.

I would consider any big Busse, 10" blade or more, in 3/16" stock to be my grail knife. If INFI really is such great steel, and it is, why does Jerry insist on making his knives so heavy and thick? If a 1/8" thick 12" blade in 1095 holds up well for me, I'm pretty sure one in INFI would. A thin mistress is my Grail knife. im shure your allready aware, but theres talk about a thin mistress on the way
