How about a SS4 in 154CM for the LE and SR101 for the CG. A lot of dogs came on board after the INFI SS4s were long gone.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

I only mentioned the SR101 option for those boneheads who hate all stainless steel.

My vote is for the machete or a camp axe. I also can't wait for the Regulator.

Ya know, if you go back and look at some of the posts I made when I first came here, I was very much against the idea of buying SY blades in 154CM. In my eyes, that was a "generic" stainless steel that I could get from any manufacturer. I figured, if I was gonna buy a Bussekin knife, I wanted a Bussekin signature steel, and that wasn't 154CM....
Then I bought a BDLE. And a Muk. With the Busse heat treat, 154cm is a mighty fine steel, and the edge is a lot more durable than any other stainless blade I own, even after I've thinned it significantly. I would like to see more small blades in 154cm from the Yard, and the Swamp too. A Vex in 154cm is a no-brainer, in my eyes.

Need time to recoup. I am ok if it takes a few months for anything to be announced.
Men you can't trust, women you can't trust, beasts you can't trust, but Bussekin steel you can trust

The price of the regulator, written on the tag at BLADE, was 149.99 - they requested that Test Team members not disclose the price they actually paid. I would expect a production release to come in at the tag price, a buck fitty.
A sub-$100 blade makes a lot of sense to me at this point. A small skinner, sheepsfoot rescue blade (think seatbelt cutter, like the Spyderco Rescue) with orange res-c, or a necker all seem like good choices.
Alternatively, if they did a SY machete, in super thin stock, to cut the cost, and could manage to bring it in under a hundred bucks, that would rock too.
