Here's A Pic Of A Vintage 1984-85 Busse Fighter

[Jerry Busse]

This trail point bowie was my own personal carry knife for many years. It had a small skeleton knife on the front (now lost) along with a big brass diamond sharpening stick on the side.

Oh, the stories it could've told if I hadn't kept it soaked in CBL for so many years! That way, at least one of us could have remembered something!

It was made out of Vasco Wear which is also why it was my personal knife. Vasco Wear is one of the worst steels I have ever used along with Stellite 6K. Both of these steels are poor performers for heavy use knives and I just couldn't bring myself to sell it to anyone.

The outer profile of the handle and some other features will be back around on the Fusion handle. Very cool!

Cool. I really like the bottle opener on top! But I though Carling only came in cans?

 

[Raindrop]

The way the skull crusher is configured it would make a tolerable can opener for CBl as well

 

[Darkjedi2]

That is a sweet blade, it looks like it hardly got to see any action.

Fusion= Wood + Brass?
Fusion= bottle openers?
Fusion= Straight Handles?

Can't wait to see in to the Mind of Busse Grandmaster

DarkJedi - May the Force be with you always.

 

[Eric Isaacson]

That is one sharp looking blade.

Very Cool

 

[Dark Nemesis]

Love the blade, can't say the same for that handle...but it's all in the past, LOL

 

[thatmguy]

Ditto. Would love to have one with a maybe less pronounced pommel thing goin on.

 

[Mr.BadExample]

That's a beaut, you ought to make a commemorative edition out of INFI

 

[v-man]

That is a great peice of Busse history. This knife really needs a new home. MINE! Send it to me and I'll mail you a check for it. Really! One out of state, two party, and post date check.

 

[Jerry Busse]

V-Man, You are a giver my friend! A gosh darned giver!

Should I mail it tomorrow. . . or bring it to BLADE?

[idahoskunk]

just like a 57 chevy, very cool!!

 

[Xelloss]

Awesome looking blade! What's the thickness on that one, Jerry? 1/4"? Just curious...

-Mark

 

[Jerry Busse]

Thickness runs around .230 on this old blade.

 

[Fan of Steel]

HMM? I always thought Stellite 6K was a non-steel? Kinda like talonite just not as good.

 

[v-man]

Jerry just bring it to blade that way I can walk around and show it off to all the porkers (I meant INFI HOGS)
Can't wait to see the new line.
