My first busse purchase and, regretfully, my first busse sold. And now they are much more costly. It certainly would be a great large camp knife. I feel 5.5" might be on the largish size for carving and many of other suggested uses. I enjoy the ss5 le but find it a bit of overkill, if you can find a ss4, or similar, it might be idea for you.
the 911 when it eventually arrives will compliment the ss5 and a swamp warden will cover most tasks. I am anxious for the be nmfsh though.

I did a comparison of 7" knives way back. As I recall, the Ratweiler came out on top. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/Knife/Survival020.jpg) OK I'm jealous! Awesome seeing so many that size lined up.

But I kept my ASH-1s and my pointy Sarsquatch. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/Busse/SARBowie007.jpg)
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

To my knowledge, I was the 1st to do that to a 'squatch. Ban did a nicer one, and Busse Custom even did some later. Wicked fast bowie chopper. You can see my grind line on the swedge isn't perfect. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/Busse/SARBowie004.jpg)
