Let me begin by stating that the following information might cause excessive excitement, so read on carefully...
#1
Most of you know by now that Jerry Busse had a terrible accident last year with his right hand, requiring reconstructive surgery and big time physical therapy...well...it's amazing how a knifemaker's spirit can create something good from something bad.
As a result of Jerry's never ending concern in retrieving product feedback from his customers in the field, as well as his personal need to work with hand doctors and bone movement specialists for over a year, Jerry has redesigned the handles on the entire Combat Line (Battle Mistress, Steel Heart, Badger Attack, and Mean Street).
This IS the MOST ERGONOMIC AND ANATOMICALLY CORRECT handle EVER on a Busse Knife. As far as I know, this handle is the ONLY handle endorsed by an orthopedic and medical team for design and engineering. You should see these new handles 2nd quarter of 2000.
#2
In the very near future Busse Combat Knives will be moving its sheath emphasis from Kydex to Tactical Leather. Field data and requests from customers have been overwhelming in the need for a sheath which is quiet, impervious to warm weather, unbreakable, and able to carry a stone or other accessory. A kydex lined cordura sheath will remain an option, but the new standard sheath will be leather rig which is the END OF THE ROAD in quality for leather rigs. Leather has been the choice of combat knifemakers and military personnel since the beginning of combat, and many sheaths are still around to tell their story. You can expect to see them included with your favorite Busse knife toward the end of first quarter, 2000.

In addition to the new handle, the Mean Street's profile is being redesigned with a wider 3.5" blade, similar to the width found on Basic #3 and Badger Attack...If you're fond of the original slim style, order it now, because once their gone, their gone. The new model should be available 2nd quarter of 2000.
#4
Busse Combat strongly anticipates a production over-run on a government order of Desert Warfare Mean Streets: same design as the current standard model except handles are tan canvas micarta. I will have the over-run of these knives and they should be available quite soon.
I am available for any of your questions.
