Wouldn't bother me any, long as they keep their legendary Heat Treat process up to par along with the Warranty.

Dan has used other steels before. I love his knives with 154cm.
Think it's premature to think of some monumental shift in which steels get used. Dan with one in 5160 doesn't mean adios to sr101 just yet.

You have to admit its odd that Busse uses Sr101, The Swamp releases a SR-77 and and Now Dan is planning a release with 5160. All around the same time.
That's as good a fodder for a conspiracy as any.

Jerry did say they "greatly increased production capacity" so maybe the shift in steels is to reach a larger portion of the knife-knut community with a more affordable entry level product in 5160 and SR-77. Maybe also to allow more flexibility for the Busse high end in INFI and SR-101.

It is probably a ploy led by Al Sharpton. He told Jerry he wouldn't protest the Busse Compound if they would use a more diversified mix of steel and agreed to increase everyone's salary. On and also pledged to get the IRS to extend them a "Non Profit" status if they would just offer on a more limited basis thereby NOT flooding the market with products superior to what folks he normally deals with puts out.
Now this is just from putting together all the pieces from a multitude of sources. What they DON'T understand is that it just means more affordable knifes for us!

Busse made the Taliwacker of SR101 way back when. So it will just be a return to form for them to use the steel. Swamp Rat has used a variety of steel also, I think a mixed bag will be in our future as it has always been in the past.
