So the argonne assault with knuckle guard is the knife that got me hooked on busse.

I was searching for the perfect combat knife and figured that it had to have a knuckle guard and be a one piece fixed blade.

This was several years ago and I saved a picture of the argonne assault and said to myself this is the ultimate knife, at the time I didnt know what it was, ended up buying a maxam hunting knife as my first knife.

So this year I was curious what the knife was and wanted a serious knife and searched a bit more and found out it was a busse argonne assault but I couldnt get one anymore.

After that I decided to get a bussekin knife, decided to go with the deregulator cause it was cheapest.

Well I got hooked and have been through about $2000 worth of knives scince.

Now I see they have the argonne assaults coming to the Arkansas Show http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=761199 and Im willing to sell the rest of my bussekin knives and my soul just so I can have one.

My question is how much would they cost, Im hoping they have a cg version which I prefer and its cheaper, now I know you guys dont know if they do, but if they happen to have it on sale can someone buy it for me please? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Thats a custom shop AA,one of a kind.
Probably the only one that will be at the show.
The price has got to be over a grand.
Keep checking the exchange on BF,the originals turn up once in awhile.

Every knife nut wants an Argonne Assault! It has to be one of the most lethal looking knives ever. I have no need for one. I don't need a Waki, either. I can just see myself explaning to some LEO how I use it for bushcraft and such.


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

I was in the door by the 4th person and a certain large buyer already had that blade in his hand. The only way he could have done it was to be there at 9 and grab it as soon as the official opening happened. Luckily I did get to see it in person though. I was amazed at it.
