As some of you know I sent a few Busse-Kin blades off to Nate a little while ago for some sharpening and a little customizing. Well, they came back last weekend and I finally got around to taking some pics. (Sorry for the pic quality, it's raining outside and I had to shoot the pictures on my porch.....they definately do not do Nate's work justice!)
Let me tell ya, Nate can sharpen a knife!!!!!
Here's a Scrapper 5 he stripped, polished and rounded the choil out for me...

And the BIG project...My SARsquatch Modification!!! I asked him to convex the edge, round off the top edge of the corner on the tang and re-shape the spine (I sent him the knife with the areas to be removed marked with white-out). HE DID AWESOME!!!! I asked him not to polish the blade, since I wanted to keep the "heartbeat" lines and the matte finish on the blade, but I polished the spine and choil area after it came home. Here's (in my opinion) the best looking Sarsquatch out there...
