Pictures of the bowie and the mudder are well over due... Book'em welcome to the yard (I also missed out on the CT/BR's so I know your pain!)

Morning y'all, thought I'd contribute my first post in here since I too just received my LE. I'm pretty impressed with it so far, just wish I hadn't trimmed my palm fronds earlier in the week, it would've been a great first test for it. Guess any testing is going to have to wait a bit. I was definitely pleasantly suprised by the handle, wasn't expecting to really like it, but it turned out to be pretty comfortable and looks like it should hold up pretty good. Overall, without any use yet, it looks to be a real bargain for the money.

BurkStar, Welcome, glad to see another new fan of the Scrap Yard. The Scrapper LE is quite a piece of steel! Mine is not as sharp as I would like but I got a new strop from Lee Valley Tools so I am looking forward to putting a hair popping edge on it this weekend. I tape sandpaper on one side and the other is loaded with the green compound. It has worked for me on other convex edges so far. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Burkstar I think the handle is what really sets these knives apart from everybody elses (apart from that awesome warranty). For the money these are very hard to beat... Book'em- what's green compound? Not heard of it over here... I'm assuming it's a gentle abrasive?

Morning y'all, thought I'd contribute my first post in here since I too just received my LE. Welcome to the Yard! what's green compound? Not heard of it over here... I'm assuming it's a gentle abrasive? Yes. It's a very fine compound for stropping with to polish the edge and remove the finest nicks. Here's a page I found real quick on grits: 3M Abrasives

I just got my LE today. It's a great addition to the Busse family of knives.
Mines getting a rough and ready looking leather sheath soon.
A black one. I'll get pics up when it's done.

Hey Blondie! So who else has the PT? Or does every S6 that comes out now have it?
Nice sheath by the way (on that other thread)! It looks like you and I are the only proud owners of PT Scrapper6s. Cool,huh?
Hey baby, you wanna kill all humans?
