Hi, My name is Robert and I have a problem. There is nothing in the house to eat <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> But seriously I never considered buying something you want as a problem, that is as long as you are taking care of your other responsibilities. I was 35 when I got married and my wife 38 and we both have things we like and so we buy them, no children and we both work. I have my money and she has hers, if I want a new gun, knife or golf club then I buy it and she is the same with things she wants and we actually tell each other when were thinking about getting something new, I always tell my wife "hey don't you work, then buy it that's the reason to have a job". We keep our own bank accounts but if I need or she needs money we just ask each other, whenever I mention that arrangement to someone they give me a look of wonder but it works for us. I must be a lucky man to have found a lady like I did. It was mentioned that we start wanting blades from the swamp and then busse and then the holy custom shop from busse, I'll be very honest with you guys I have a ratmandu that is SWEET but I don't really care for the busse blades. I have had a skinny ash but sold it (for what I bought it for)I didn't like the feel of the grip and some of the blades are for a better explanation too pretty(shiny) I love the whole scrap yard working mans look and feel and to me that's a good thing.

cazio, I'm with ya. I has a Busse once but I sold it. It worked fine, but I had other Yard and Swamp blades in that size. INFI is a GREAT steel, don't get me wrong, but I've had no problems yet with 77 or 101 and they cost ALOT less. Maybe someday I'll get lucky and find a great $200 Mistress of some sort or another amazing blade I just can't do without. Until then, Swamp and Yard seem to fill my needs (and then some <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> ).

I'm with you all the way brother, the only infi I have is the WD and that's because it was from the yard.

I agree pretty much with everything you guys say, but I have two infi blades now, a Wardog (Oh man, GREAT knife) and a WD Hack because it was offered to me. It's my only Busse Combat blade.

I have knives from all three groups, but I'm hopelessly addicted to Bussekin knives! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

One of these days, when the stars align and the price is right, I'll probably jump on a busse (metaphorically speaking)
