Any idea if or when the custom shop will open back up?

[Jerry Busse]

I ordered a Custom Choilless Boss Jack with Ram's Horn probably at least 5 years ago, still wondering if it will ever come to fruition? Who knows, would be absolutely amazing surprise if it is in the queue to be made.

I have no email record (I deleted my folder of old Busse related emails when I left the forums for what I thought would be forever, ... regrets I suppose.) or anything on paper from ordering, but remember talking with Garth over email about it specifically.

I still can't help but wonder if this is how these things work or not? Seems without having a receipt in hand for the work order, I'd wager I never see or hear anything... oh well it was a nice thought anyways. Maybe I'll catch a break and my long lost Grail will come home...

Good news!!!

Garth did have copies of all of the old emails (2014) and it turns out that Maggot Brain was supposed to send his Choiless Boss Jack in to have it modified but he NEVER did.

Garth had a pretty stern rule about modifying knives in the custom shop back when it was open . . . He always insisted on actually having the knife in hand that he was to modify before he could get started with the modifications. (I guess that does make it easier!)

So, NO knife was ever sent in, NO order was ever placed, and No money was ever exchanged.

Mystery solved . . . All is well!

Wow, my memory fails me yet again. I apologize if my posting here came off as negative, was not my intent. Thanks for the confirmation anyways, I was WRONG again! I meant to post what Garth emailed me about it, been caught up... thanks for checking on it guys!

Back some years ago I had a couple of knives built for me by the CS. Everyone was great through the process and like most things Busse, payment was not required until they were ready to ship.

So he must be at the top of the list if he sends it in now, right?

Cool to have the boss chime in on my thread. Heartbreaking that the question was skipped I guess no answer is my answer lol. I guess I'll just have to keep buying all the available models so they'll be forced to keep producing new models. Ya know considering I'll be living in my shed hiding from my lady on a pile of knives lol.
