Scrapivore LE's No Longer Available

Scrapivore LE's No Longer Available - 12/15/10 06:35 AM

Dogs:

Congrats to all the Dogs that got in on the Scrapivore LE offering. We had a massive number of orders come in over the weekend so the Scrapivore LE is no longer available for order. We will be heads down over the next 6 to 8 weeks getting these finished and shipped out.

Stay tuned for the up and coming Scrapivore Combat Grade Model

I got one for each hand.....dueling Scrapivore's. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I never heard, are these going to be numbered?

Awesome...me too!

I heard they will not be...but I can't remember if it was Dan speaking or someone speculating. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Just wanted to add that this is the first time I've seen SYKCO remov a knife for sale without prior notice. Anyone have any substantive data to back that up?

Good to hear that so many orders came in, that the Big Dog had to shut this down! I hope it was a worthy venture, boss! Merry Xmas to you and the family <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Can't wait to get mine!!
I guess I'll have to get the CG for my other hand.

Re: Scrapivore LE's No Longer Available - 12/15/10 07:33 AM

I had decided to only get the CG, but Dan kept tempting me by leaving the LE up. Thank heavens he took it down when he did, otherwise I might have caved in another few days!

Bring on the CG!

Other knives have been withdrawn without notice due to heavy sales. The second batch of SS4's were oversold due to a software glitch and there was another knife that had a very large single purchase that caused it to be withdrawn. I can't remember which one it was for sure, but it has happened before and I'm sure it'll happen again. With Bussekin knives, you snooze, you lose. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

Dan

That answers my plea for a Christmas present!

But NOTHING makes a heart happier than a new Scrap Yard knife!

Since Valentines day is in the time frame... what a GREAT Valentines Day present!!

Woo Hoo!!!

More orders than you can fill... what a sellers dream!

Speaks volumes about Scrap Yards reputation.

Well done Dan. Your company is a living legend.


Peace

The MUK was taken down the same way IIRC.

Re: Scrapivore LE's No Longer Available - 12/15/10 11:42 PM

I let the LE sit and will pick up a CG if I am around. Hope CGs have a sheath offered or maybe Jeff will be right on top of it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />.Congrats to all that scored <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Better make a huge quantity of the CGs Dan, I know I'll probably order 3 myself. Too good of a steal to pass up, methinks

Yep, lower RC and thicker....meant for harder working jobs <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Not to take away from the LE, of course...as I am very excited about both!

Re: Scrapivore LE's No Longer Available - 12/16/10 07:00 PM

Now Bushy, WHY would you ever want a thicker beefier harder working knife. I mean it's not like you actually USE them or anything! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I decided on the CG myself, MIGHT be able to get 2!

Hey, Why don't Dan sell them on late night TV on one of those infomercials! I can see that working. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I agree Bushman,but having a Scrap Yard knife using Swamp Rat steel
with INFI RC hardness....is NOT a knife to pass on. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

It will NEVER be made again, and wringing INFI stats from SR-101 is a first time event for Busse Knives Family. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />

This is a collector piece by its sheer invention, but as a user it will be
so far ahead of any of necker to date. IMHO.

You may live to regret not owning this one. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />



Peace.

Great to hear the LE's were hot. I was SO tempted to grab one for all the reasons you guys named, for the price to perf ratio, and because i wanted to support the company. But it was actually Dans description of differences between the LE and CG that made me wait for a CG (or 3),sounds like its just what ive been wanting. Cant freakin wait!
Staying tuned Big Dog..........................

Can't wait for my LE!
Gotta avoid cranial-rectal inversion,so I don't miss out on a CG to go with it.
Makes me wonder what 2011 will bring?

Gnarly, I believe the correct term is Cranial Rectalitis, but I could be wrong!

How about completing the first 1,000 or so this weekend and shipping them for Christmas, Boss-bro? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I keep forgetting I've got these on order. LOL I'm knife slap-happy lately. Gotta cut back.

That day,when it comes..will have every kydex melter working overtime!

People will be getting orders for Orange to Camo and every color in between.

Watch the forums and see who wants the lions share of Kydex production and strike!

Me..... I always like something in leather.

Something made by my sole sheathmaker Rainwalker, Jeff Law.

Leather has a permanence to it. Not to mention leather sheaths make kydex look like slumped plastic.

Funny eh?

In the Army, we call it incorrect placement of the cranial dome inside the four points of contact...

Well that sucks! Guess I should've been faster with the order. Went to check it tonight and BAM! they're gone. C'mon CG!

Re: Scrapivore LE's No Longer Available - 12/19/10 06:44 PM

I agree POP leather is the real deal. I have a couple projects on Jeff's list and thinking about adding another. I still experiment with my own kydex for something quick and cheap though.

Hey Dan, I had to pass on this initial release but I want to put in a request to see a handful of these bad boys at lease once a year for a while. Maybe even just a blade show regular or something. I think it would be a great one to keep bringing around for those guys who may want to cut their teeth on something from the yard but not want to get bulky or spendy to do it.

Thanks,

Re: Scrapivore LE's No Longer Available - 12/23/10 11:42 PM

Man, this was an awesome little knife. I'd have been all over one if not for the promise of the CG in the works. Although I know I couldn't really afford to buy both I really wish I could have. That being said, congrats on the demand for this knife. When you release the CG you will be getting an order from me for sure!

It's a practice Katana, that should tell you that you probably CAN'T beat on it like a REAL Katana, lol... MM from China. I had one like that, got it as a graduation gift. I could actually bend the blade with my thumb and forefinger.

Re: Scrapivore LE's No Longer Available - 01/26/11 05:03 AM

[censored] priorities, like how paying bills gets in the way of collecting and using Busse kin knives.
However I don't mind waiting if our armed forces get the tools they need.
