Just scored a NIB Basic 5 to add to the pile. :cool: It's a really sweet blade, now I understand why they were so popular. ;)

Here's the new addition

Naked :eek: with the rest of the family (B9 & B7)

I really like the LeatherHog's drop sheath on the B7, like his others, it's a real work of art.

oink oink :D
 

The Basics are very nice and I esp like the smooth coated ones. I currently have all but the 5 and may be adding one of them to my group soon.

Nice going and good luck with the 3 .:thumbup:
 
i do beleive your missing 5 :D

smooth coat b9, crinkle coat b7, b5, and b3 :D

personally i prefer the crinkles for their smaller choils....

You HAD to point that out :rolleyes:

;):D

I agree with you on the choil's.
 
Nice snag!

The B5 is the hardest to find, simply because it is so perfect.

The best of the Basics IMO.

While I know many like the 5 - I have found the handle to be a little short for my hand. Now the 7 or 9 to me are just about Busse perfect. If only they were full INFI!! :rolleyes:

jimmyjones,

Some great knives you have there, some of the best Busse ever made.

The most under valued Busses in general, great user knives.

TurnerIII,

That is about the perfect Basic #9, hard to find High Desert Low Ride factory sheath.

Was also available on the #7

For the Basic #5 I like Buy Brown sheaths the best.

For the #3 all of the sheaths work pretty well.

TurnerIII,

Yup, that's the one.

I have a #7 and a #9 with the same sheaths.

Grats on the pair.
