The frickin toughest steel I've ever used. My busse sob saved my bacon or at least a crap load of time, after dropping a large maple in the woods I began sectioning it for splitting. Here in northern mi the snow is deep in the woods, the tree fell and was resting on a stump under the snow causing my chainsaw bar to become pinched. I do have a spare bar and chain but my spare chain got damaged a few months ago. Anyway out comes my trusty sob, I batonned it between the two logs where my bar was pinched and using all my body weight wrenched and pryed until I could wiggle my bar free.

I was blown away how tough this knife is, it did get bent in the process but holy crap if this isn't a testament to infi I don't know what is. I weigh about 185 and literally was using ALL my weight to free the chainsaw bar. Any other knife would have snapped in 2.

This is definitely abuse, I will be picking up another chain for my back up bar so this won't be happening again. Busse freaking rocks and infi is not a gimmick.

Hopefully I don't get piled on for using my knife this way, but believe me being alone in the woods with a chainsaw pinched you start thinking of all options.

Hopefully busse will warranty my knife, I have a new found trust in her for sure. THANK YOU BUSSE.

If you want a knife that will literally survive most anything and still be a usable knife infi is it.
That is quite impressive - it's stories like that that sell these blades to someone like me.

Lol... I'll take it :D.

Well let me be the first. Just curious, but why didn't you buy a come-along and use it to pull your bar free?Or use a crowbar? Why use a expensive knife?
 
Because he was in the woods and there was no hardware store open the next tree over? :confused:
