Busse Scabs

[Switchblade_renegade]

Hey everyone I got a an older busse scabs I’m looking for a little information on. Not looking to sell or looking for what it’s worth but more the age. So I can’t post pics but it’s scabs that says BUSSE on one side and CUSTOM on the other side. For most the years I’ve been a Busse fanboy I always only saw the logo whether regular or a custom shop but only on one side? Again just looking to see roughly how old it is and why it’s stamped on both side?. Thanks for any info on this

If it's black paper micarta, that's from 2010-2011. Maybe just late 2010. Busse was marking some LEs at the time with CUSTOM on one side, they did it on the Boss Jack LE as well, around that same time period. I've seen some show specials from later than that, usually with multicolor G10.

Basially, you could order production knives from Busse at that point (2010ish) and request custom features to be added, the one you pictured is not a standard offering and the Anorexic BS was only offered in Limited Edition configuration w/ satin and black paper. This was either a show piece or somebody requested that handle with rope cut pattern. Cool knife, don't sell it.... or I may be tempted to buy it and I don't need more temptation at this point lol.
