Of the three knives I currently have (a Satin Jack is in route), I really love the feel of the Pork Shank, it fits my hand so well.
For those of you more familiar with Busse knives, which knives would fall in the size range of bigger than the Warden, but smaller than the Pork Shank that have INFI steel?
That will be the one I will want to buy.
Here's a picture for reference...I would like one that would fit between the top two knives.

The BOSS Street (middle knife)

...or the much thinner Anorexic BOSS Street that was released in 3 different flavors (Choiless, small choil, large choil) comes to mind.

This is EXACTLY the information I was looking for.....l appreciate the leads!
 
Culti or the Anorexic BOSS Street.

I handled the Pork Shank recently, and, although it was tempting, decided that my skinny CABS was good enough.
 
Lisa,

Look at the knife at the top of the first picture in Jaxx’s post – it is either a Meaner Street or maybe a Leaner Meaner Street. The Meaner or Leaner Meaner has one of my favorite shaped grips on a smaller Busse.

Also look at the knife at the bottom of the first pic in jimmyjones’ post – it is an Active Duty (AD). The AD has a very similar grip to the Meaner/Leaner Meaner – the only difference is the shape of the pommel. A nice model variation of the AD is the BAD, or Boney Active Duty; the BAD has a 1/8" thick blade and an extra thin tip, along with about a 2 point increase in the RC hardness. The BAD was designed to be a good slicer (I would not recommend prying with the tip).

The Culti is also a nice choice.

How about a magnum bear cub? I love mine, and its small:)
but a CABS would fit in the middle well, as well as a Hog Muk.
 
Well I have always thought the Meaner Street has a lot of the same attributes as the Sebenza. It and its cousins have always been some of my favorite EDC Busses.
 
Thank you all for the input, I'll be looking for reviews on the ones mentioned and then try and narrow it down to one or two, wish I could buy all that were mentioned and possibly in due time I will.
 
Cultellus!!
The Pork Shank is my go to Busse. The size is perfect!
I'd like to see a petite chisel ground Pork Shank. :)
 
You all had great ideas, but the ones you mentioned are not necessarily easy to obtain.
I found this Nuclear EDC on the marketplace and it is a good fit between the Pork Shank and Game Warden:
