OP Howling Mutt Mutt Joined: Apr 2011 Posts: 113 Collier County, Florida	I have a question for you dogs who use and abuse your Busse kin knives. Which steel do you find more resistant to rust SR-77 or SR-101 ? I have not yet used any of mine, other than to take them out and admire them and maybe shave a little arm hair to test the sharpness.Thanks for your input. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Officially Addicted Steel Collector

They are great to admire in the safe but EVEN BETTER to admire as you beat the finish off 'em!!!! JYD #115
