Busse Combat Is Proud To Introduce The Force Multiplier V10 (FMV10), Coming Wednesday, October 8, 2025, at 9:00 PM Eastern

The Force Multiplier V10 (FMV10) has been designed for the rigors of heavy combat and features a 10" blade
with our patented Corrugated Bevel Technology.

This design is by far the "Baddest of the Bad" in the land of
daggers, with lines that flow so freely that the FMV10 looks to be in motion even while sitting still.

From the Crusader-inspired pommel to the tip of the 10-inch blade, the FMV10 is designed specifically for self
defense applications.

No matter how you choose to use and abuse your FMV10, you can rest assured that our
warranty covers all acts of temporary insanity and blissful enjoyment!

Let's Drink!

Jerry

The Nuclear Option:

The Nuclear Option is not for the faint of heart, but rather for those bacon-loving HOGs who do not fear the unknown!!!

The Nuclear option on the FMV10 is a grab bag of sorts. You will receive a randomly selected handle from a pile of Nuclear Castoffs.
This pile of handles has many hand-laminated G10 and Micarta slabs, as well as some solid colors not normally offered!
This option does not allow you to choose your handle!!!! . . . You do not get A CHOICE! You will get whatever you get by the blind luck of the draw! It is a veritable PORKpourri of oddball handle materials! The Nuclear Option will also include the Busse Custom Shop logo.

Nobody likes whine with their bacon, so we have implemented a "No returns/No whine clause"!
There are no returns on the Nuclear Option. . . .

So, you can either play it safe or you can go where only the bravest of HOGs have gone before. . . . to PORKpourri and beyond!!!!!

Machined Nuclear Option Handles:
Available on all three blade finishes: +$70.00

Custom Shop Nuclear Option: Handles are Hand-Shaped and only available on the Competition Finish: + $200.00

This option includes the following:
[ ] Busse Custom Shop Logo
[ ] Handworked Flats. . .
[ ] Custom Handles!!!. . . Crab Shack Choice . . . No special Requests, No returns!. . . These will be Grab Bag style!!!! Knives will be boxed and shipped blind. Even we will not know who is getting what.
[ ] Extra attention to the outer perimeter finish.
[ ] $245.00 - $510.00 additional value depending on handles and work done.
[ ] Very Limited Supply!!! . . . First-Come, First-Served!!!! . . . and I mean VERY LIMITED!!!

Only the fastest will score the "Custom Shop Nuclear Option"!

Going to have to get one of those in hand to see what it's all about.

Blade should be lighter than the Forefather Bowie. Be interesting to see how that changes things.
 
Just ordered!
Custom Shop Nuclear Option!
The WarTalon and Boarracuda were amazing. I have no doubt this will astound.
 
I wish they'd offer this with maroon canvas micarta.
Why did they quit offering maroon canvas micarta?
Those were the best
I’m sitting this one out. An expanded handle choice might have made a difference.

I haven’t seen black paper offered in a while. Last I recognize, was the nuclear option on the F-16… and even then it was a roll of the dice. There’s a few on the F-16 list I’d love to seen more of.

(F-16) Nuclear Option Handles
[ ] Light Gray and Black G10
[ ] Dark Gray and Black G10
[ ] Solid Olive Green G10
[ ] Solid Red G10
[ ] Purple G10
[ ] Ivory G10
[ ] Black and Red Linen Micarta
[ ] Red Linen Micarta
[ ] Black Paper Micarta
[ ] Tiger Hide Linen Micarta
[ ] Tan, Green, and Black, Layered Canvas Micarta
 
I think I will press the nuclear button if I decide that I am in. But I am undecided still, as I have been saving up for a Team Gemini sword that I really want to order.

What TGS19 handle/finish are you’re thinking of? I might let one go.

Amen to that.

Knife looks great. Needs more standard handle options. Anything linen or paper would be immensely welcomed. However, for the business aspect, they’re probably just trying to streamline things to a more “mass” production oriented model regarding raw materials. Hence the consistent use of 0.21” infi stock across the board as well.

Sitting this out also, but for different reasons- Got 6's 8's & a 14- think I have enough fmv's... And I can't carry any of them in PA anyway (prohibited offensive weapon AKA: dagger/double-edge)
Which are the ones- in blue type or in black?
ETA: my bad- blue. 😅
I have an GW2, & possibly a P&L Statement, although there is a shade variance between both handles... one may be "white" unless the ivory g-10 varies from sheet to sheet
