comparison pic request

[Mtnclimber69]

I am sitting here curious to see a pic of the handles for the new Steal Heart and the EU-17 side by side... both have updated ergonomics to the e-series knives... and given that I only have knives from the e-series I am curious!

Thanks, enquiring minds want to know (see)

Here's a pic of my latest. A one-of-a-kind trial knife by Jerry.

And a couple others thrown in for comparison.

One of a kind trial knife!?!?!?!

ATTENTION HOGS!!!!!!!! I think we have a serious new blip on the radar here. He is obviously making behind the scenes grabs while we are not looking.


We've got our eye on you now boy.

I've been watching him since he showed pics of that BARF of his, unfortunately my "watching" hasn't had much of an effect

It actually seems to have encouraged him

Thanks Shanewomer! Let me know what you think of the differences between the two once they are in the hand... I am curious to discover which is the most comfortable in hand.

Very nice collection!

Very nice collection!

Thanks Peter, and everyone else, for the nice complements!

I've got a few more, that's not the whole collection...

I love INFI! I love it because I've seen first hand how tough it truly is, compared to other blades. My brother's and I have abused some of our Busse knives, (and other brands too), and so now I know it's not just hype. INFI is the real deal. And that makes me love all the rest of my pretties all the more!

So, if you've got a huge collection of Busse knives, I suggest you take one and beat it good! Then you'll love all the rest of your safe queens that much more! Make sense?

Anyway, I'll see if I can post a pic of my whole colletion later this week.

Mtnclimber69,
When I first received my EU17, quite a while ago, I REALLY liked the handle, and everything about it.

Then, when I received my standard FSH with standard Fusion handles, I loved the handle shape, but wished it was thicker.

Then, I finally received my Limited Edition Fusion Steel Heart with MAGNUM Fusion handles, and I REALLY REALLY like the Magnum handles. They're AWESOME!!!

To me, each handle feels right on each knife. For example, it would seem funny if the Fusion handle was on the EU17, because the Fusion handle is a little bigger, especially the magnum version! It wouldn't fit the size of the knife. The blade on the FSH is bigger/wider/longer than the EU17, and the handle fits accordingly. The EU17 is a smaller knife, and I like the handle that is on it.

I like the way they both feel a lot.

But if I had to pick one favorite handle, it would definitely be the new Magnum handle. It is the coolest Busse handle ever! IMHO

Although I like the EU17 handle a lot too. I like it more than many other Busse handles, but not more than the new Magnum Fusion.

You're asking about two really great knives. And if you can ever find, or afford, either one, get them!

I hope that helps.

Shane

Thanks for all the input Shane... now if you don't mind just send me your knives so I can get a good feel for the differences in person. That way I can add my own comments and we can form a concensus!
