The LE looks great. The CG, however, may turn out to be the first BCF (Busse Cheese Fighter). <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> My wife looked at it and called it The Cheddarator! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> (It's humor like that that's kept our marriage going for 33 years! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> ) (Cheddarator) Tell your wife good one mate! That thing with black G10 could look ok.. (In a sci-fi ninja kind of way) Hmm! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

You know, the more I look at that picture, the more I'm beginning to like it. I'm looking forward to seeing what the Swamp comes out with next week. Will probably only be able to afford one, so it's going to be interesting <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Same here. That Busse in satin LE finish will be at least $500. The Swamp Rat will likely be half as much in the LE finish. Looks like Vic was right about the Swamp's offering! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Which one is more affordable I wonder? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
For what it is, the 119 is a great knife . . . especially for the money! And it's still made in the good ol' US of A. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Is it a Busse? No way in hell. Good point!Though I grew up using pre-Taiwan Schrades I have always liked Buck knives,especially that 119,didn't mean to offend.

The new Busse looks cool and everything,but I dont see any practical use for it. Blade width seems too narrow for any kind of camping/survival knife or general use knife. Maybe for kitchen duty (if you have to kill your own game) Its a fighter,and that style knife,im my opinion,doesnt lend itself well as a "general use" knife. Since I dont plan on getting into any knife fights in the near future,I think I will pass. It is an excellent looking knife though. A deadly fighter... Probably kill you deader than the Buck 119.

The new Busse LE is flat out beautiful. It is for collectors for sure. If I could swing it, I'd buy one and just look at it.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

It would look better with single color scales IMO. Nice gun though.
Something for the collectionistas.
