You can contact me directly at jerry@bussecombat.com for custom work. . . .

There's a heck of a long waiting period for specially designed customs. . . . a bit over 5 years right now. . . . Sometimes though, I get drunk and stumble into the grinding room and grind out a bunch of custom GFDs. . . . That can be interesting!

I hate to discourage you, BUT you'd probably pay a lot less and get one much more quickly if you had a Busse customized.

doing through-tang knives? I've got some things I'd like to get done in INFI but I have requirements for electrically-insulated grips.

Longbaugh, Have you ever heard of the Basic series of knives. I believe they are insulated, but I don't know for sure? They are an out of production like of knives with a rubber like compound on the handle, but it's much tougher, stronger, and resistant. Also, have you looked at Swamp Rat knives (I REALLY hate to mention them because we've got a rivalry, but only because of the stinkin' rats.) They aren't INFI, but they are as tough as non-INFI knife can be.

Read that page. It doesn't say anything about electrical insulation, but I'd bet anything they will have the information you need if you give them a call, or send them an email

Anyhoo... I'm sort of a new convert to INFI. I made the acquaintance recently of a fellow who let me pretty much destroy half of a Chevette and probably two dozen cinder blocks with his straight-handled BM, so I'm sold on whatever metallurgy and human sacrifices go into conjuring that stuff. I've broken three MD blades so far, so I'm looking to trade up.

3 MD blades?!?!?!?

Well, you definately came to the right place!
Welcome aboard, I think you'll like this place. :thumbup:
