A great bunch of Variants.
But I have a question.
By way of "Definition"
Are any knives from the custom Shop(and so logoed) now thought of as Busse Customs?
Are older variants added into this?
The way I remember it from the old days, a "Variant" started out as a more or less "Standard" Blank, then finished or ground differently than a standard knife.
For a Custom, you sent a Sketch or a drawing, talked on the phone, worked out a price (it used to be $100.00 per inch, handle included)and a possible delivery date (used to be about two years)and got a one of a kind knife designed by your self in part and made at the Busse Factory, for the most part by Jerry.
Has this changed ? and I just missed the change?
A few examples come to mind, the Behemouth, the Dragon's Fang and The Chuckchetty.
Edited to add, or is this just pictures of knives from the Busse custom shop? as opposed to being custom Busse knives?

My original intent was just to go with the CS logoed knives. We were following that concept pretty well until the Bully wandered in here and blew us all out of the water.

Sorry, some of mine do not have the Custom Shop logo. Jerry's told me in the past if I want to send them back and have them logo'ed I can. I just haven't gotten it done yet.
I hope my pics didn't cause any problems

Jealousy is such a twisted ugly thing....
Of course there are no problems. I just felt like emoting a little bit.
