BOSS JACK LE arrives in AZ

[azwelke]

Thank You to the Busse crew for the CABJ:thumbup:
This is my favorite Busse so far. The tip is nice and fat for an anorexic, and it came super sharp:thumbup:

 

[dialton]

mine arrived in Texas today too. They are really sweet!

Great news!
Expect one more coming your way for sheathing any day now!
Very nice pics!:thumbup:
How does the LE feel in comparsion to cg version?
Does it feel slimer in the handle due to less thickness?

The LE feels very similar to the CG. The CG has a thinner point and is convex with a v- grind.
The LE is sabre ground with a convex edge:thumbup:
The CG is heavier, but they both balance right behind the talon hole. Almost in the exact same spot. The CG balances about a 1/16" farther back towards the butt.
The sabre grind makes the LE perfect IMO.

Darn, now I have to order a choilless too.

Love it :thumbup: Thanks for the pics. Makes waiting easier...

Is there any chance you could take a pic of a proto/cg Boss jack next to it (if you have one) taken from the spine?
Like this (or similar):

LVC - what are the knives on the above pic?
Are they boss jack le on the top and boss jack proto on the bottom?
Is there such a big diference in thickness between those two models?

 

[ikkyo]

cool.
mine should be here this week. I'm glad because I changed my original-choiled-order to choilless...

Here you go
Le on the bottom

Le on the left

LE on the left

Le on the right

My CG has been stripped and very lightly hand sanded, so it is very close to factory size and shape. The CG's come nice under the coating

 

[Last Visible Canary]

Perfect! Thanks! :thumbup:

 

[Last Visible Canary]

One of these days I'm gonna have to get one of the cg's to see how it feels next to the proto's...

 

[CR33]

Gratz Al! Great pics-thx for sharing too.

I just got my LE today--would have been yesterday except I was at work and had to go to the PO to sign for it. It is certainly an improvement over the Proto. The tip is thicker than the Proto's while the blade stock is thinner. The Proto is awesome but it has too much material left behind the edge. It's excessively thick going into its convex edge. The sabre grind of the LE leading into its convex edge remedies that problem perfectly but still allows for a nice thick tip. I am planning on using this LE as soon as Chuddy Bear is done making me a sheath. I did some kitchen duty right off--it slices cheese and paper like a dream. It's a beauty too--both my LE and my Proto are choiless. If the BOSS Jack CG is left up long enough, I want a choiless CG too.

One of these days I'm gonna have to get one of the cg's to see how it feels next to the proto's...

Nice Al :thumbup::thumbup:!!!,, nice sheath too

 

[saville01]

Should be getting mine soon.....Received your sheath today for the Regulator, Nice work Al.

Will have to get one for my Boss Jack LE when I get it.

 

[maxinigrad]

Hello would you ship a kydex sheath for a regular BOSS JACK (not the LE) to France ?
best regards
