you know there are some people who will sell a reasonably priced dogfather i put one up for 180 on ebay i only asked for what i had into the knife itself 140 for the knife and then 40 for the custom work i had done which was a real sharpening and blueing job on the blade after it had been stripped. boom watch the sucker go on ebay went up to 317 if the guy pays his bill by next week ill be sending it off to Cali. The thing that amazed me the most is that i offered it at 180 to someone to buy free and clear and they passed after i wouldnt budge on my price which i thought was more than fair. i guess the moral of the story is when you see them for less than 200 you should get em while the gettin is good. eventually these will become so rare they will be just impossible to find but i find comfort in the fact that i can buy one of these knives and use it to my hearts content and either keep it if i love it or sell if i dont like it for the amount of money i have into them and then some for the purchase of a new knife that i have found to be better. The only other thing i can say is you gotta hit the blade shows and gun shows they are still floating around. the knife store i work at purchased 5 dogfathers at knob for like 150-200 a piece from individuals last fall.

Bide your time. The Busse Kin knifes come up at a fair price every once in awhile. Weve have ALL been in your situation. You have basically entered a Brotherhood. You will have to dig and root around for the things you want. Its how it was when i joined and HOPEFULLY it will stay this way!!
Hey Mods, Why isnt my imagine up?? I aint much on figurin that stuff out.

I will be thinning my Busse-made herd next week. I will not list them here, but keep an eye on the BF Exchange.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

Horn Dog thanks for the heads up. Will it be later in the week? I just thought I would ask I'll be working 12s + next week. I have the same user name in the Exchange. Thanks for the heads up. I just picked up something from a fellow yard member this week so it will be a little tight next week. Either way I'll give it a shot and keep my eye out. Thanks -Jason

+1 I agree with this. One of the the main reasons I like Bussekin. That and the fact they are just bad [censored] knives. It is hard to pay over retail for any item but it is also good to know these quality Bussekin hold value so well.

People will pay what they are willing. I did sale quite a few blades of late, mostly Bussekin as I was not using them, there was others that were close in design and I like them more, etc. Do I regret it, kinda as I will miss have them but then again I feel pretty good because many went to fellow Dogs.
Men you can't trust, women you can't trust, beasts you can't trust, but Bussekin steel you can trust
