Friday night knife argument spawns a new Busse fan :)

I think one of the area's that Busse really excels at aside from the excellent steel and heat treat is the ergonomics of the handles. Very few companies make as comfortable a knife to use that hits a broad range of hand sizes.
 
All I can say about Busse is that the toughness turns me on because anything I could accidently do to it, it will most likely survive. I did chop into a concrete paver stone just to test the theory of Busse toughness, my TGLB held up really well, much better than my $40 Condor Kumunga in 1075 when I chopped into a bird and some deer legs.

Busse's style also appeals to me, they seem to have quite a few knives that really just catch my eye.

As far as fit and finish, they are simply the best knives I have ever held, and I have yet to find any ergonomic issues on the Busse and Kin I own or have used.

Another thing with Busse is that I have no doubts that I can use the hell out of them and still they will have enough life left in them for my children and thier children.

As far as cutting ability, I regularly use my TGLB in the kitchen and my Rodent Solution can skin a whole deer and not need to be sharpened afterwards, not a factory edge, but the Work Sharp makes quick work of giving a sweet 40 degree inclusive convexed edge, so they can cut super well if one is inclined to reprofile the edge.
 
I recall reading a story somewhere about Jerry Busse's early days in like the 70s when he was hiking around with friends or something an someone's blade broke.. an at that moment he decided he wanted to build the strongest, closest to indestructible blades on earth.. an INFI an busse combat are the culmination of that goal.. not sure where I read it..? Maybe someone on here or Jerry knows.. I know infi is not some God steel, everything will take damage. But seeing the remarkable strength and characteristics of infi made all the difference in buying one..then two..an so on.
