It’s time for a new Team Gemini Poll

[dogboye]

I voted Crusader, even though I've never even held one.
I was tempted to vote TGLB, but I've never even held one of those either. The TGULB is probably my absolute favorite Busse knife, though.
I just dinged today for the NTG I ordered ... uh... I think Monday! Anyway, I'm looking forward to that one... but couldn't vote for it as I haven't held one yet.
I HAVE the FTG... but prefer the TGULB.

So glad they offered the NTG again!
Congrats!

Yeah, there are some really neat variations of the gemini, but for me it boils down to TGLB vs TGULB. I really like the geometry of the TGULB, but ultimately, the radius at the handle started to bug me, so I went back to TGLB.

I haven't tried the nano yet.

The TG14 and the Crusader are probably closest to being the same knife.

Yes it is~ the TG14 (and the long one) I don't have~but, that's not an inexpensive one to chase down There were also a lot of variations/Custom Shop and I've even seen a recurve version. But tere were some amazing 14's I've seen over time.

 

[Don't drop it.]

Yeah, the 14 reminds me of the Randall Model 1.

My new favorite Gemini is the Forefather Bowie!

Model 1 swedge is sharp… we’ll have to wait & see how the Forefather ships.

I have a good few versions of the TG including the Crusader but I always preferred my DS8 which is basically the same blade.
The double talon holes always felt a bit off to me but everyone is differnt.
I'd love a type of TG /DS8 blade with micarta slabs and a flat spine.

 

[zombieassassin]

TGLB all the way.

Has the TGULB been discontinued?!
Just looked at the page and it isn't there anymore!!!
I'm very new to Busse blades, do you guys know if their custom shop can do any model they have previously made but discontinued?

Looks like it. You can either keep an eye on the Knife Exchange area of the site and/or gamble at the appropriately sized IBlack Friday grab bag deal going on right now.

I would be shocked if it had. But maybe so. The TG, of some kind or another, is to me the iconic Busse blade. I know others would say it is the Steel Heart, or the Battle Mistress. But the TG just seems to be IT.
Maybe they're about to come out with yet another version. But I'm hoping not. I'm hoping they are just holding it back for now since they have a lot of other things going on (or at least it seems that way).

I'm glad I've already got a good assortment of TGULBs.

I counted and I have 5 different Geminis. I recently added two Nano Geminis to my trough. I guess I belong on that show Infi Hoarders, as I cling to my Infi like Gollum. Hmmm my favorite one is probably the Forsaken Gemini, followed by my Nuked Nano Gemini.
