Re: Custom Knives Anyone?
I had the chance to take a family photo of my most special Busse blades as I enter my 3rd year of collecting these special pieces of handcrafted sharpness~ I can remember looking at all his beautiful blades for years and of course being drawn to all those pretty "Custom Shop" blades. The great thing is there's a cool story behind each and every one of them and I wanted to grab a current photo of all my "CS" blades. The opportunity just to be able to buy one doesn't come along often *unless you want to pay stupid prices* so when they do come up for order it's hard to pass up as they are the rarest. Several of these are 1 of 1 handles and were very difficult to acquire but that's another subject

Re: Custom Knives Anyone?
One of my latest acquisitions - a one of a kind TGULB Custom Shop with double dyed maple burl and hammered finish "Infi" I won this with a lot of luck and have had to beat them off with a stick wanting me to sell it - Might go with me in the ground
Also paired with an equally rare and special Scotch, Glenmorangie Signet.

Yes, it's a beauty! Might say it's the prettiest of all! but that's some stiff competition.

Re: Custom Knives Anyone?
I wanted to share this great leather/snakeskin piece of work. I found this lady who does leather work through a fellow hunter here. So through some conversations I sent this Busse Custom Shop Hog Badger to her and told her to do her thing. I just received this teaser photo this week and I couldn't be happier for the job she did giving my knife some new pants!
So shout out to "Anna's Customs" and thanks to "Splainin2do" for hooking us up to make this piece of beautiful work come to be.

Re: Custom Knives Anyone?
and a new addition to the Busse family - This is a Custom Shop Elmax variation I recently scored in a free for all Ganza. It's paired nicely with an amazing Abelour A'Bunadh batch#68.

Re: Custom Knives Anyone?
And here's another recent acquisition. the 10" "Jack Hammer" with a Cerakote camo finish and Black-n-Tan G10 handles. This has a hollow ground-to-flat profile grind and is a beast as a light chopper. And Cerakote as a blade finish is absolutely indestructible. I stripped a cerakote blade once and it took a week of wet sanding. I swore I'd never strip another.

Re: Custom Knives Anyone?
Those knives are beautiful. I’m no knife connosour but I think it would be fun to forge my own knives. Maybe in another life! My thing is tobacco pipes. I’ve been smoking and collecting tobacco pipes for last two decades. Now pipes, I love them but wouldn’t want to create them. Oh the irony!
I’m curious what this individual knives cost you? It sounds like they’re a hot item!
