LOL...I must have been in left field, giving you pricing for the SYKCO 11 series.
Anyhow, I agree with Tom. I think the phrase "The Basics That Never Where" is dead on...because they're not Basic at all. The pricing is off for the type of knife.

I love my B11. IIRC, it was about 297?

I hope you plan on posting the pictures Tom. I will, sometime tomorrow. Man, this is addictive: I have about 112 Bussekin knives! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> And at least that many non-Bussekin! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

I posted in this in the thread of the same name on BF, and I don't want to sound like a whiner - but I'd like to get the yards take on it :
I really wish they would do a CG of the B6, and hope they do CG of the other Basics. I can't afford the LE models, and I really had my hopes up that the Basic series would be... well... Basic!
If we took the price ratio of the Boss Jack vs Boss Jack LE :
$267 / $397 = 0.6725 or 67%
and applied that to the Basic 6 LE to get the CG :
0.67 x $277 = $185.59
$187 (since Busse likes to end in 7)
I would definitely drink to that!

So would I!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> As you can see from my pictures in the Death Chat thread, I DO have a few Busses. I just think that Jerry strayed too far from the original "Basics" concept on this one. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I'm guessing that they have a lot of knives lined up and there might not have been a lot of interest in another 6" knife, so they are keeping it LE so they can keep bringing out new ones.
I still hope some of the others will end up as more regular offerings.
