its from the fullers carved on the blade

yeah, they're def. not fullers, (as coldone already told you)
fullers are normally alot different.
I guess that the corrogations (I guess thats what I can call them??) do the same thing though.
is that what jerry put them they're for?
I always thought they were for looks mostly.

The CBTs help stiffen the blade without adding too much extra weight. The blade with CBTs is stiffer than a blade of the same weight that does not have them & is just slightly thicker.

Think of how an I beam is built, with the top and bottom there to provide stiffness.

Do tell! how do you get in on these Ganzaaas?I'm completely ignorant on how to score from Busse the way you boys describe it.

Occasionally, over on the BladeForums: Busse Combat Manufacturers subforum, Jerry Busse will post an announcement that there will be an upcoming 'ganza event. A few days later he'll post pictures of the knives that will be offered, and a posting to describe the specific rules. I've participated in three, so I can describe some historic generalities, although specifics will vary for each event.

In general, you compose an email that provides contact information and exactly what you want, as well as any second choices, third choices, etc (in case whatever you want most is already sold out when they process your request). Then you wait to send that email to addresses that Jerry will specify in the rules, until he posts a GO, GO, GO thread. He'll specify a time range when that post will take place beforehand, but you must wait until after he posts the GO thread to send your email (or you go to the back of the line). Requests are processed in the order they were received (after the GO) until the available supply of knives is exhausted. Over the course of the next week or so, they send confirmation emails whether you scored or not; if you got some (or all) of what you asked for, you contact them to make payment, then they send out the knives.
