Nice score. From everything I hear you will love the blade. I am keeping my eyes open so I can try one too.

Thanks guys!
@meatcutter: I haven't still found a sheath...I'll ask to my friends here in Italy for a Kydex sheat in tan color.

That is a really nice blade. The Busse family of knives offer incredible products. Although as of late I've found greater interest in Scrapyard. I can't wait for my SS4 I ordered to arrive. The handles SY makes look very comfortable.

Congrats! I needs me some chopweiler fury!

Re: My first Swamp Rat... - 04/18/09 06:30 PM

Congrats. Yours has nicer scales then many I have seen on that knife model. I recently traded into a used Ratweiler. My guess, from playing with the RW, is the grip of your knife would be more comfortable and better able to sustain long workouts. I love the look of the RW though so I guess it balances out.
