OK guys... we were not picked to play in the vegas game, sniff sniff... :grumpy: :p

So what shall we talk about?! :confused:

Who wants to share their thoughts on a Busse design you would like to see? This doesn't have to be something you already know about, tell us about your dream knife... made with INFI of course...
 
i noted a possible variant of a variant in the sale forums - an extra wide primary hollow ground jungle defender...

iiiiiinteresting stuff....


i would like to see 2 knives - a plain jane 7 inch chefs knife (though the N.I.C.K may just be more then enough to fill that desire)

and a 3 knife throwing set :D

oooh.... and an infi push nail would be cool... (albiet evil and a horrible liability) *like a push dagger, but with a moderately short nail instead of a knife *with your basic medical needle style triple bevel tip**


OOOH.... and a full tang folder!! me and my brother have been trying to come up with a design to allow the blade and the handle portion of the knife to lock up like a jigsaw to basically make a fixed blade that folds... wich is suprisingly hard to come up with... the only way i could come up with is extendable rivets - wich would just be to many breakable parts... sure, theres super gheto ways of doing it, but i want style :D



and a fusion battle mistress :(


i wish i was at shot so i could handle an off duty again... i know the reason i got the ad instead is because i just couldnt logically allow myself to buy a knife THAT thick... but every time i look at it i go "now... why did pass that up again?"

ah yes... and the busse ax....

lol, i lied, theres a lot of things id like to see come out :D:D
 
Be glad you're not in this game! I was up practically all last night. My eyes are tired of the computer screen. My head hurts. And I don't know if we're any closer than when we started.

Can I put in my two cents worth anyway? I would like a BA-E in 3/16"
or even thinner. This length knife just isn't a chopper, and a thinner blade would make more sense.

However, the new Badger may just be the best of the coming new knives, and it is thinner than 1/4".
 
There are a mountain of things I would like to see from the Busse shop. One is going to be the next custom I am going to try and order. It is a small concealable backup knife. Something based on the handle shape from a PR with the blade from a clip point badger. I would want it real thin maybe 1/8th with smoothed epoxy coat.I would want the blade Hollow ground with a convex edge. It would be small enough to tuck in a SOB or IWB with out getting bulgy. The knife would have a paper micarta grips with a raptor grip texture, I figure three inches of handle three inches of blade.

and as for not being on a OINK team -No Regrets!
 
the badger attack does look awesome...

something i know im never going to see - but think would be awesome, is the badger attack tactical with a small choil (ad style). ive always had problems with whatever im cutting slipping into the choil, and i never use it choking up/ have cut my self several times when doing so...

soulds kinda fun mike :) i stare at a computer screen from 11pm-3am and then from 11am-3pm every day :) the gaps are for work and sleep.... ahhh... the computer age...
 
A quick photoshop of what Im waiting to see ;)

fusion_mojo.jpg


Thats right, Fusion Mojo!
 
Nice photoshop, that would be an amazing knife, however isn't that a desert mofo rather than a mojo? Either way, add some "flying" serrations and you've got the mother of all mr's..
 
I am right there with you, that is a perfect one, just make sure it is at least .25" thick!!! I would sell my other Busses just to have oneof those!!! errr, well, maybe not, but I would have to buy one!

Yes, the blade is from a desert mojo, I just snagged the best blade angle shot I had to work with and used it.

Of-course, I would want mine in satin or double-cut finish :)
 
NICE!! Fussion MOFO would be awesome. Jerry will make it, wait and see. hehe.
 
I do like the handles on the BAIII because they are small for a small knife. I hope that the Fussion BA maintains small handles.

That is my only complaint of the E-handles, that the knives don't look as good because the handles appear unusually large, even though they are confortable.

satin jack tactical - wich is one very nice lookin knife...


i personally didnt like the forward section of the third generation handles.... the index groove seemed so deep as to make it slippery, wich was partly do to there being a lack of a dip on the hind section - everything slopes foward toward the blade. choking back and you got a great grip, but for me *i have moderately large hands* the index part just seemed way to small... the knife felt like it was slipping whenever i cut with it...

the new handles look like they'lle over come every complaint i had about them.
