Those are bee-yootiful!

BTW, I’m not sure if you’ve ever handled one, but have you seen the asymmetric push daggers (where the haft extends between the index and middle fingers, vs the more common version where it extends between the middle and ring fingers)?

In use, I found the asymmetric version to have superior ergonomics (not that anyone ever hopes to use one of these, vs a collector’s item/curio).

These are designed just as you say, with the stem between index and middle. The spine is towards the thumb, and the edge towards the other fingers. The handle is sculpted to my hand, without symmetry.
I made a simple symmetrical set a few years ago and was reminded of them when I saw the recent Busse release. Symmetry is tempting for design and build simplicity, but I wanted to do better this time.

Can you take a pic holding them, I thought they were symmetrical too.
They look super Cool.
It's on my short bucket list to do a couple. I've carried one for a couple years, and like their use.
Thanks.

I shot Cowboy Action Shooting for 15 years and am a certified lever action nut job!

That’s a beautiful rifle ❤️

I roll my own 45-70’s and won a number of 100 yard side matches hitting a 6” plate with open sites.

45-70 and 45LC are amazing for their ability to both shoot soft and straight or drop the biggest animals on the planet.

Very cool Chad! I'm a lever action nut myself. I shot Cowboy action for a number of years too. Although the Winchester 1873 is my favorite lever gun "visually" ... it's hard to beat a Marlin for shooting.

And I really like the new Ruger made Marlins too. Great fit and finish and the ones I have are definitely shooters!
