Might be missing them (its happened before :D), but what are the overall specs, i.e., blade length OAL, etc... Also, are the "imperfections" merely cosmetic?

Thanks

Found the flaw although it took some searching it was a stray 60grit mark in the Choil area in front of the scales. Fixed it and has gone away, does that mean the price goes back to normal ;)
OAL is 11 1/4" Blade is 6" measured at the center from the point to the front of the scales. Balance point is exactly where the index finger hits, making it feel lighter than it is. Lively in the Hand! Sheath is Hand Made custom fit to this blade in 8-10oz leather. Flat grind. Hope that helps.
 
I really like the contours and jimping on that handle!

You might have to drop the talon-hole (in the ricasso) though, that's a Busse trademark (just like Spyderco's thumb hole).

Awesome work :thumbup:
 
Chiral the uncovered hole at the Ricasso is on most Busse designs although not all. The T-6 Fighter future blades will have the hole in the Ricasso covered by scale material unlike Busse.
Not trying to do any infringement here... Apologies if there was a mistake made. Won't happen again.

I stand corrected. Talked to Jerry on the phone today and all is fixed.
Thanks for the reminder!
 
Geez, that was fast. Did you call him or did he call you?


You should tell Mr. Busse that he should take some tips from you on handle design!! I haven't felt yours, but that contouring looks ideal. Any chance you'll feature this beauty without the crazy green (although I am sure that appeals to many)? I think this'd make a great "all around" camp/outdoors knife! Did you CNC out any of the tang? Where does it balance?
 
Jerry did call me and he explained it. No problems and I will take him up on the Beer he offered in Atlanta!
Ground out enough of the tang to have it Balance where the index finger hits.
 
Can you get pics if the handle so we can see the tang and layering. Hope that's clear enough. : )
