Is this against the patent?

Morgan Koens Rolls Out First Production Knife with Kizer

That seems pretty like the Busse talon hole to me.

Trademark.

Not a Patent....it's a Trademark....
Forward to Jerry's email he will make the call.

As mentioned, it's a trademark, not a patent. And from what I recall of the wording, no, that won't fly. Tagging @Jerry Busse

Looks like you could use it for a bridge with your pool cue it's so big-

It looks like a fixed VECP, stuff like this is why I refuse to own Chinese knives

It's a collab between custom maker Morgan Koens (One of my favorite makers) and Kizer.

I'm sure Kizer had the brilliant idea to put a hole there and not Morgan. I hope Morgan doesn't get any negative press about this. He's a Good Dude with GREAT designs.

Yeah but its not a busse... if you want near busse quality buy a Miller bros. Pick your steel, finish, regular or exotic handle colors without waiting for ganzas, op2w or rare occasions.

Trademark on the Talon Hole, not a patent. Still protected IP.

Spyderco has been doing this for a long time

Busse has a Registered Trademark on the hole in that particular location. The holder of a Trademark is required to vigorously defend same, for fear of losing it. So, whenever one sees a fake or another brand with a front talon hole, drop an email to Jerry with a link. He appreciates having an army of eyes looking out for him.

Mayhaps Jerry and Sal could put out a collaboration called the Jarlsberg?
