Any idea what blade steel this guy is?

[Brian mehok]

I recently acquired a busse knife, I believe it’s a swatmandu. Just wondering if anyone has any information on it. No clue when it was made, or what blade steel it is. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Hard to say without pictures. If it's the Ratmandu pattern with the Busse Logo it's a SwatMandu, those were infi. There were also more recently Ratmandu's in Infi, so it mainly comes down to the logo.

By pattern I mean shape and size of the knife.

Here's my original Swatmandu with Busse Logo.

Awesome. That’s what I was hoping for. Should be interesting to see how it compares to sr101 on my swamp rat.

Love the Swatmandu. I bought one with my non favourite tan and black G10 scales on the off chance the CS reopens. I'm going to change them (and maybe satinize the blade) . Something about them just feels right

I seen one satin CS and fancy scales and one coated. Mostly DCBB's and a few digicam cerakote finish.
