Yeah, I did it. It was a little tougher than I thought it would be to spring for a knife this expensive. I had to weigh my priorities. Food is usually pretty high on my list, and I need to get a new truck. Those things flashed through my mind. In the end, it was a "no brainer", literally, no pun intended.

Ford will still have plenty of trucks in the future, I'm almost sure of it.

Sis, add a place at the supper table for the next month.

Congrats!! She will not let you down! What kind of FBM? Color, handle?

LOL! That's great Arkie! Congrats man. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I hope Sis' cooking is good <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

It's black coated, magnum green linen micarta. I finally figured out how to get my paypal account verified and everything, but it says that the funds transfer can take 3-5 days. Is that true? In my business we do wire transfer all the time and it's hours, not days.

Oh, and luckily, sis's cooking is top-notch.

Congrats, Arkie. I got one with the standard scales. Had I known about the magnum scales, I would've gotten them. It is a great big beautiful knife. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

That's awesome! The magnum scales feel very comfortable even when you're chopping and prying for dear life or grins and giggles.

I can't wait. There's a pelvis out there somewhere that needs shattering!!

Cool! Alaska Gun I take it? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> They are good to deal with.

LOL, exactly. Kraz gave me the heads up.

Same place I got mine from. They are an authorized Busse Combat reseller.

They had a black and 2 green, then just 2 green, so I jumped on it. I didn't want to chance not getting one, even though green wouldn't have been my first choice.
