Yes, of course, this knife was designed to be a fighter but it is so much more. The blade shape itself is a classic that has been used for a long time as a camp knife, a skinner, and general all around utility knife. So don't put off obtaining one because you think it's "only" a fighter. As always, this is my opinion only and is highly subjective. Here it is with another knife with a similar blade shape

Here it is with another knife with a similar blade shape Ah, the Magnum Camp. Nice knife. It also is a full flat ground bladed knife that is quick in the hand and will chop a lot better than you would think. Mine is one of the original Black Jack knives satin bladed edition. It's a nice knife. Oh and MINE has a hole in the blade near the choil that allows the use of the Kenny Rowe designed pin lock sheath.

Only thing I can think of Tom is the 411. I would really like any color handle other than black, but if black is all they got....

Ray, nice pic! You got the sickness bad! You should feel right at home here! Tom, did I get under your skin over at the Swamp too much for you to potentially proxy for me as well?

With the exciting release of the Tali-Whacker LE we are all celebrating the reissue of a classic blade. A blade born out of the desire of a small knife company in Ohio to give Those who "Go In Harms Way" the best advantage possible.
This Small company sacrificed, and put honor, a sense of caring above profits.
In the aftermath of the most devastating loss of life in our country excluding the Civil War, This epic unparalleled blade saw service overseas in defense of those who defend our way of life, doing their utmost to keep the destruction outside our borders.
We have tagged this blade as a fighting knife, which it is, but it, I feel, is actually much more. It should be called a COMBAT knife. That does truly describe more accurately it's intended role. For it is indeed intended to be a Do all blade for those who must rely on what they have at hand. It will chip it's way through a wall and open MRE's. It will cut webbing and remove splinters. It will defend the life of it's owner, without fear it will run out of ammo when it is needed most.
It is truly a Bomb Proof Blade, able to survive the rigors of Combat and the abuse given by those who Defend Our Way of life.
So, let's celebrate the rebirth of a classic, and the Dedication and pride in the nation of this Small company.
Dan and Jerry, I along with hundreds, if not thousands, salute you and say Thanks.
Maybe kinda long winded, but The desire of wanting to do something, and putting that desire above profits, to me, does prove that the Busse Combat family of knives cares more for their customers than they do the "Bottom Line", profits.
