What would be the best Busse to use a bushcraft knife in the 3-4" range?
I have a C.A.B.S on order but I am not are if this is the best option.
 
The CABS I have ordered is going to be exactly that. A LCABS would be good as well, depending on if you prefer a usable choil or no choil.

I've used Bark Rivers for my middle bushcraft knives despite Busses due to the significant number of elf choils on Busses in this size range. With the talon hole and the elf choil, the edge starts too far out for what I like in a bushcraft knife. So I'm really excited about the *ABS lineup.
 
So do you think its better to go choiless or with a choil for the CAB. I have many Bark River knives as well, which I am selling.
 
That's a really good question... one I haven't answered for myself yet. ;)

I went choiless for my order, but I was debating. I figure if I don't like it, I can always get my money back out of it on the exchange and order one with a choil. But I think I'll like it just fine... as long as I can put my thumb on the spine as a guide and there is cutting edge under the first knuckle of my thumb, it'll be perfect for me. Don't know why I like that in a knife... just what I'm used to.

I went choiless because I was scared to lose too much cutting edge.
 
Culti !

I'll second the Culti! A great little knife indoors or outdoors, just don't use it like a crowbar.

I think the C.A.B.S. will be a super cool Bushy! But..... I think my Culti would work good too! The BAD is another option. So.... there are a few sweet INFI models to choose from.
