How does the custom shop work?

[Nobody]

If one were interested in obtaining say a Street Boss without a choil and maybe ground thinner, how would one do that? I see various custom shop offerings but I've never found a section on the Busse webpage that offers any options. What am I missing?

Email garth.

For a custom blade you're probably looking at a good amount of waiting.

I fixed the email addy.

You would have to discuss it with Garth. Sometimes he gets behind on email, keep trying or call them. Wait times seem to be highly variable, from months to years.

Woops, I left out the second s somehow in busse combat.

Thanks.

and I'm pretty sure getting a blade w/o a choil or in a thinner profile is amongst the least-available options...

lots of people have had custom shop blades made/modified, and I don't recall any without a choil or ground thinner...

custom handles, maybe some serrations here or there, custom blade finishes, but I dunno about the other such mods.

YMMV.

when I asked for that modification (as apposed to pure custom (which might be an option if you have the patience for it)) I was told that the custom shop wasn't doing any modifications on the cgboss streets at this time.

That is correct

Is it too early to send in my BWBM to be re-coated with bama clay? :thumbup:

Thanks for the info. That was very helpful. The main thing in which I was interested was if a boss street could be obtained through the custom shop without a choil. The other mods could be done on my own, but you can't add metal where it's been removed. Choils are fine on large bladed knives but I don't like them on smaller blades. I've had times when a choil hung up in something I was cutting on smaller knives.

No joy for me but the info was useful. Thanks again!

We are just not offering that option at this time but send Garth a e-mail and possibly down the road the custom shop can do something for you.
