I was just talking about this subject on the SR forum.
I have been getting interested in Fallkniven knives particularly now that they have gotten new 3G steel in their regular line up. If it was not for the Busse kin
(that is what Dan Busse told me to call all three companies when I asked on the dog forum) I would rock a small Fallkniven fixed blade for EDC.

Brother, you have my full attention with that beautiful knife! Don't you hear it!...listen...shhh, it's saying it wants to live with me ...not you! :thumbup: :thumbup:

 

[perksy]

Don't worry mate, I take good care of it. Its nice in snug in a lightly oiled rag..

 

[stabber]

You got one of those beasts too :thumbup: 17 1/4

Another with a David Wesner as my favorite non-Busse. Absolutely amazing chopping performanance! An A2 blade that's 12-3/8" long!

 

[Tyrkon Lawson]

Now I need one of those beasts!

 

[Cutshaw]

Something for scale...

WOW, that knife is just plain gorgeous! I just checked out their website and see a mammoth ivory handled razel sometime in the near future. This is a cool thread, it's shown me some makers that I never knew existed. Thanks guys!:thumbup:

Favorite non busse? That would be the 5" folding tanto I have on order with Bob Lum. Probably will be a couple years though

 

[pbubsy]

Wow.....What are you talking about! Mine looks nothing like yours
I did not know they Barry got Damascus going on! Not to forget meantion your handle!! Man...mine looks nothing like that.. I gotta stop winning, if mine looks like that then it won't be $600.00 LOL

black oxy non-stainless high carbon is what i have, seems like most pieces are like that from Barry I thought. Start to see less of 440C from Barry.

Sorry, maybe I should have been wearing my glasses. I thought your's was the Brad Vice high contrast Damascus. It's a nice looking steel, but I cant imagine that nickle they put in with it for the contrast is very good performance wise.

Mine was buffalo horn with the damascus and had some nice vine work up the spine. Flawless lines, beautiful grinds. Mosiaic pins, and the Jap Wrap. I traded it for a Busse.

My HI 20 inch Sher CAK is my favorite.
The HI 17 Sher inch CAK and Yurco neck knife as well as my Cuda Maxx are up there too.

NO REGRET on that decision. :thumbup:

Dozier Wilderness for me............

 

[mfaster7]

I don't have it yet but it should be in my sweaty little hands by tomorrow I hope). Its name is Combat 7, by Joel Bukiewicz. CPMS3V, 7 inch blade with a full concave edge. Joel is amazing to deal with and a great all around fellow but most importantly his blades are awsome.

Tyrkon, I thought you didn't need a big chopper? Worried about those bears again? Does that RD9 fill the hole in your heart left by a certain naked BM-E?

Currently my favorite non-Busse knife is my Ranger Knives RD-9.

Another with a David Wesner as my favorite non-Busse. Absolutely amazing chopping performanance! An A2 blade that's 12-3/8" long!

My David Wesner KC-4MC (Modified Clip) just shipped out today. Can't wait for it to get here!

Here are a few pictures that David provided. He is an absolute pleasure to work with on a custom blade.

 

[OldPhysics]

There are many excellent knife makers I'd be proud to own.

That said, I do like Doziers.

And...anything by the astounding Tai Goo. That man is crazy good.
