I was researching pics of past Busse knives, and I came across one called "Force One." It looks to be my soon to be favorite! I was just wondering how much I can expect to pay for one on the secondary market?? And if you guys own the Force One, can you provide any pics?? I was only able to see it at one angle...
 
Here's my pair of Force Ones (the top one has a special grind from the shop).:thumbup:

Enjoy the pic!:)

Oh man...of course. It figures the one I have my eye on is one of the most RARE and EXPENSIVE!! Well, if you guys ever come across one, or hear of one offered, definitely give me a holler!! I'LL BE YOUR BEST FRIEND!!

dude, when one shows up it will be a mad rush.
 
Well, I think they came along early in the Fusion lineup, provided Jerry starts re-issuing fusion models after we finish the full range of models. At current pace, that should be about two weeks (where two weeks = 5-10 years). Busse collecting can be done with patience or money. Both is better.
 
If I remember right these weren't even that popular when they were introduced, I don't think that many sold at all. I wouldn't be surprised if they never make it into production again. In a few years they will be super rare.

i prefer the look of the sfno myself, though i have never handled a force one. im sure they are great knives, as all are, but i find them odd looking.
 
The Force One is probably one of my favorite busses. I don't own one, but have handled several when they were company offerings. They don't seem very popular at all. I haven't even seen any coated Force Ones go up for sale, I think almost all the ones in the exchange were satin or doublecut. It's a great knife, but most people who I think are into busses aren't into americanized tantos. Certainly would be the knife for breaking things the tips on em are crazy!
 
Not all Busse designs do it, but this is definitely one of those knives that either evokes a hushed silence or an immediate "Oh my God!!!" when someone sees it.
 
They've never really done it for me... but my g/f saw Eds Satin & snakeskin Force One, and she loved it. :eek: Sooooo.... I guess be hunting for one of those sometime in the future. :D
 
When they were at the Company Store, I passed. I didn't have much desire to own an Americanized Tanto, Busse or not. But when I made a decision to gather the satin and black paper models, I got one. I wish I had just gone through the store....
