Does anyone know if there were different size blades on this knive, I believe mine is 4.75". I saw a post on BFE, someone was selling a SS and said it was a Mini Sus Scorfa. Is mine a Mini as well?

That's the same knife. That 4.75-inch model was released as a Mini-Sus Scrofa (Sus Scrofa is Latin for wild boar) [See The Busse Collector site]. I'm not aware of any full sickle sized/shaped Busses out there, but who knows what the future holds. The thickness of coated versions was listed as 0.187, satin versions list their thickness as 0.170.

It is a great knife. No worries about chipping the blunt end of the blade tip under light prying. It is perhaps the best bet option, and the one I typically favor, for construction site carry and use.

I really like the look of this knife and vividly entertained the thought of buying one... Then I found a black S6 and DFCG new that I sold my soul for <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
