GreasyNukedBacon but, skunk liked “NuclearBacon.” I think it fits…
So, I’m unpacking today & remembered something @Mrs Skunk told me about the Busse Combat Store days…
“Scott started putting “Skunk junk” in order boxes. And the people loved it. He would fill them with everything and anything he wanted.
I wonder if you found any “Skunk Junk” in your order? Skunker is famous for packing shipments of knives full of cornflakes, Cheerios and other fun things, beans, spiders, etc….“
Low and behold… skunk couldn’t resist!
I was unwrapping this one and it has a sweet kydex blade, painter’s tape guard and pvc hollow handle… equipped with 14 minutes of rations (brown rice) and emergency gauze (paper towel) cap.

I better call it a night![]()
Is your watch a Citizen GT or Panerai?JWB is the true way to do it. Nuker was never in any danger. I have choped several dozen cords of wood with heavier blades.

Oh boy, this was quite an unpacking job! I’ve still got some organizing to do and getting a little decal adhesive off here & there. 1/4” paper dots were numbered & placed on each knife… keeping track of what was where during negotiations was a small feat in itself. It was a great idea by Mrs Skunk!
Please forgive the poor lighting… I’m in my cave & haven’t squared away the lighting yet.
Skunks’s personal favorite… if he had to pick one as an all around user, is at the lower right of the first pic. 0.220” Magnum Orange/Black ASH-1.

I’m just blown away… HO-LEE smokes!!!
Did I mention, my Mrs Nuker is an absolute angel… but, she wouldn’t mind if I did a few more house projects now… like, right now!
And, I’ve got a couple very special (more skunk junk) blades I still haven’t unwrapped. I may share them at some point?
A couple very elusive & highly sought after ones… the Skinny SH1 and ASH2.

THAT'S a smattering?!A smattering of everything. Perfect collection.
A little late to suggest you pace yourself, methinks, but fortunately INFI addiction is manageable—just somewhat expensive.![]()
This one has a story with it…

Yeah. I almost lost my home when the Beanie Baby market tanked. It was terrible.That's all relative. There are addictions that are considerably worse monetarily(not drug related of course).
Great historyJaxx !!!
Speaking of digging knives out…
I tried to find a storage solution, I just bought a 14 drawer cabinet… 52” long drawers.
The sucker is 685 lbs. Mrs Nuker helped me place it… she’s a gem.
Three drawers fit the haul. So far… so good.
