Hey twiz!
MBB offers high quality work and unique designs... however as of late they have really blown up and can cost upwards of your larger and / or custom BUSSE options. They make most in the 3 options of steel listed and some of the older models have variances.. prolly tinkering early on I would assume! I have a few 5160's and some Zwear. Personally the Zwear is my favorite and holds an edge just fine for my needs. There stock options are similar to BUSSE in the way you can get 1/4, or 5/16... plus some are offer in thinner options depending on the model. The M19 and m4s are the true favs in my book... however would love a jungle sword (on the grail list).
In the name of truth there sheath options are outstanding and have a number (100's) of combinations and add on's. Not to bash or hurt anyone's sensitive side here on a BUSSE forum, it's nice to have a custom sheath included
All in all I regard both BUSSE and MBB in the same light. Different in many ways but quite cultish in nature...(personally I can't stop:/) their service is great and with me they have always taken the time to talk through things, take advice and provide it... especially on their custom jobs. Prices are high but quality in workmanship is what you would expect! On a final note I love buying from fellow Ohioans and both BUSSE and MBB check that box for me
