I realize that an 11" blade may be better suited to a more optimised handle design, and that Dan might be saving that size range for a different design, but I would really like to see an 11" (or bigger) blade with some soft and comfy Res-C on the handle.
(I also realize that it might compete a little too directly with the B11, but I like the Scrapyard styling... and price).
I guess what I'm really asking for is the Magnum Regulator, but I'll take any XL Scrapyard blade.

It would sell like crazy. Everyone has been clamoring for the 911, I can imagine the frenzy over an 11" blade with Dan's price/ performance ratio.

NOW you're talkin! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> But it needs to be relatively light weight for a Bussekin blade. That way you can lop off Zombie heads all day long!

That's why I love the Busse Combat B-11; nice and light, Res-C handle, and a great chopper! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Oh, rub it in! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" /> Excuse me I'm going to go cry in a corner now. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> What really torques me off is late last month I had to pass on a B11 + kydex sheath for $250.00! Couldn't bet that the bonehead in the big white house and those other idiots that are supposed to be working FOR us were gonna pay us and that is half our pay!

You should have called me; I could have helped you out. Remember that the next time you find a sweet deal like that! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Thank You Tom. The Dog probably would have waited for a few days for us to find out what what going to happen but I didn't feel like I had the right to ask him to do that. He needed to get rid of it and I didn't want to put HIM in a bind waiting on me.
