The dog started barking like crazy and I wasn't expecting anything in the mail. I went to the door and ahead of any email advance, my Busse Bushwacker Battle Mistress was signed for and in my office.

All worries about size and weight evaporated. It's much lighter than I expected. I could easily handle one of the thicker versions having swung this one around effortlessly (my first Busse).

I got the model on their site picture - Tanker Gray (looks black, darker than the website picture, unless you get it under bright light and you can see a bit of gray tone). Black G-10 grips, very roomy and comfortable. Insanely sharp.

Not knowing if I'd use it or collect it, I fondled it for a good while then wiped the edge down and put it away for now.

I have this new toy now but it'll take some real motivation to go out and chop stuff up with it. The BWM "combat grade" is so nice, I hate to scratch it up. :D
 
USE IT BRO! I don't mean to belittle your blade, but there are TONS of Bushwackers around. If it were a SHBM or a Bushwacker LE, then maybe it would be best left to the collection due to its rarity. However, you have one of the best working knives that Busse has manufactured. USE IT!!!!!

I hear ya. I have a tupperware box full of big chopping knives in the BWM's size range - I just hate to put that first big bruise in the coating! :D
 
It will! I have some relate questions - but I'll post in the Busse sub-forum. Thanks!
 
you can use it until the coating wears off then ship it back to Busse & recoat it in any color.
I just got a Custom Shop HOGFSH, & it looks like hell now, I think they look better used
anyway, that is just me though. You could also get a comp-grade version they have a
rough finish to begin with.
 
Great score man but you'll never know what your missing if you don't beat your Mistress! :D:D:thumbup:
