Busse Ads and Article listing....

[Eric Isaacson]

As some of you know I have a few of the Busse Ad's and Articles that have been printed in the past. While I do not have all of them I do have most of the old ad's and I've also been lucky enough to find many of the old articles written about Busse Combat and their knives. I thought some of you may enjoy trying to locate some of these old articles and Ad's and rather than buy and look through hundreds of old magazines you may just want to know what issue to look for. This is not a complete list, (I left out many of the quarter page ads etc) nor do I guarantee that it is 100% accurate, however here is a list of some of the Ads and Articles I have found on Busse Combat. At some point I would like to scan all of these in and have them accessible on the internet. Most of the Ads that I have listed are full page advertisements. Also, unfortunately it is not complete as I stupidly let my Blade subscription expire around 2004 (so I'm missing the 2004-2006 ads)

I have not covered any months where the advertisements were run again, or articles where the knives were just briefly covered. The listings above are not complete but do cover most of the full Busse articles and ads.

I'll also be filling in blanks when I find the info
