I'm not in love enough with the design. I'm not in love with the design at all. I'm not really crazy about it, either. That's okay, though. There will be others. Many, many others.

Nice blade but I will hold out for something that grabs me more for my first Busse. To be honest, I can not get away from the SY and SR blades--see no reason to!

Whether I get this one will completely depend on price - I'm leaning solidly towards the "not get" side right now. I'm pretty happy with the small INFI collection I've got, and probably won't pick up a lot more unless I sell off some of the more expensive ones first (or hit the lotto <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> )

this might have to be my first Busse. any word on a price? or any guesstimates? As an absolute ball-park guess, I'd say it's comparable to a SJTAC, which was last released in 2008 at $267 -- of course, some handle materials (like G-10) will be an upgrade, as would things like a double-cut blade finish.

reminds me of the original SOG style. Over all I like it but will not be getting one.

I'm in for one of these. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
If I can get it, and I think Jerry said that "YES" these were options: Satin CG No Swedge Choil Hammer Butt Magnum Black Micarta Scales
