Thanks Rat!!! How many different Busse knife companies are there?? They breed like rabbits!!!
Busse Combat
SRKW
Scrap Yard
New here but it seems to me that Mr Busse would be better served and sell more knives if he made the web site a bit more user friendly, had a selection of knives to choose from in all different styles instead of a handfull (and I mean that literally), and used the employees to make knives instead of making baby companies. I have 2 of his knives and like them very much. The BS of trying to find them is not worth the end result though. Possibly he is making all the money he needs and putting out all the product he wished to so that the market is always in need.
Just my opinion.

I would just like to be able to go to Busse Combat, click on the knives link or order link or whatever that easily found, and see a large selection of knives that I can choose from that are available for purchase or made to order. I dont think that is too much to ask for. I am not inclined to wait years for any knife from any maker. Randalls included. Instant gratification and all.
It's the knife you really want because it's really inexpensive INFI and you missed the meaner streets the first time around!Piglet wondering: what is a Busse Scrap Yard knife??![]()
I do buy others. I do so now because his are so hard to find. I bought my Busse's several years ago. When I did, I do not remember any secret hiding places on the web page to find the knives, I had several selections to choose from, and I did not wait to get them. They were available, advertised clearly on the site, and shipped in a very reasonable time frame. I went to the site tonight and there are virtually no products to purchase. I saw 3 AK47's and 2 War Boars (while realizing that it is entirely possible that I did not look in the correct secret spot)! My point is: For a company as well known as they are, If the demand is so great that they have spin off shops out their ears, why are they not utilizing their employees to fill the basic demand of the customers with their original shop? Expand it. Why spin off more of the same styles with more secret hiding places to see their products? (As you can see that irritates me greatly as a consumer of reasonably high priced sharp objects) Do they make more money by limiting the number of each specific model? The secondary market doesn't pad their pocket even though the production limits make them more valuable after they are out of production and therefore possibly increases the mystique or some junk like that.

I know he is a moderator here and want him to hear my opinion. Then of course he can do it the way he wants to and I will stick with only owning 2 of his knives instead of buying more. Possibly this should be posted in a "Rant" thread...edit, Ok correction, I did see 2 other models available without looking too hard.
