Whats your latest knife purchase?

[crufflers]

Yeah, I have marine epoxy as occasionally do project that require a gallon or so at a time . But what I thought was interesting is how well cyanoacrylate works with 550 cord if you want to make a tough wrap quickly.

You could actually construct or repair something with it.

That is interesting. My problem would be the small Super Glue tubes I keep around.

If I could paint brush it on, it'd make it easier for me.

So, my wife saw the pile of wood shavings I created when practicing some outdoor skills. She called me beaver boy! B**** pissed me off, so I bought two more Bark Rivers.

Bravo Alphas, DLT exclusive.

new toys but need to upgrade sheaths...pics are crappy and don't do them justice!

Those will be great with a little clean up and the right sheaths. Very cool.

You can buy it in all kinds of sizes. This isn't where I bought mine from (I can't remember now).

I buy two or three big bottles and keep them in zip lock bags in the garage refrigerator. Don't know if fridge helps, but it stays good for several years.

Cool looking EDC knife.

Wife just gave me a Ontario Rat 2. More reasonably sized than the Big brother. Fits nicely in my pocket.

Crufflers,

My wife and I were watching Naked and Afraid XL....lol, crazy show. But I noticed one of the women brought a fricken Busse with her. Couldn't tell exactly what what model because of the angle they held it at. But it was definitely a Busse.

Ontario Rat 2. Anniversary present from the Mrs. Just hit our 20th anniversary yesterday. It's a beefy little thing.

Nice knife, congrats on your 20th!

We just had our 22nd, or 23rd recently. She doesn't know I've forgotten how many years... I'm afraid to guess.

Look up Spec-Ops Sheaths. A lot of folks use them.

That's a good suggestion. I just ordered another one. It is hard to find those for a steal nowadays. I think I used to get the BASIC 8" max for $30 or $35...

Just ordered a Combat Master for $61 after tax. Great sheaths. For a RAT7 you'd get the Long.

Here's one more Kydex option. He made my RTAKII Kydex and it is perfect retention and nice thumb break.

Price will be a wash between this and a SPECOPS because you need to add a TEKLOC to the Kydex... and you may need to mold your insert on the SPECOPS.

I'm hoping to mold the insert on the new one to fit a Mega Ratweiler... we'll see if that works.

DIDN'T WORK... that Ratweiler is too damn fat... it just barely goes into the SPECOPS with no liner... could not get the liner to cooperate and stretch enough, was about to ruin it then purposed it to one of the TALIWHACKERS I have without sheaths.





Here's my old thin RatWeiler - fit great.



Good sheaths though. I'll have to find some kydex.

You might contact Buy Brown, he often makes up Kydex sheaths for new Busse Kin models so you don't have to send your knife to him. His prices are very good too. IMHO

Yeah he had a post on Blade Forums specifically for the Mega Ratweiler... so I have an OD sheath inbound.

That’s exactly what I was looking for - someone with some already molded in stock.

Hey, good job. That Mega Rat is a beautiful beast.

I was thinking about picking up the thick Trash 2, but I already have plenty of big knives.

I have been searching for the perfect all around outdoor belt knife from 5-6 inches. With the Illuminous 5 and Bravo Alpha, I'm closing in. But I've bought a lot of knives trying to find the perfect knife.
