Just another fake...

To my tired eyes I thought the logo read Bussy ClownsHat...at first.

I own a "knockoff"... i had it made before i really got familiar with the knife collecting community. I saw a design that i absolutely loved by could not afford, so i had someone make me one that was very similar.

I feel kinda embarrassed by that knife now. It's great, one of the best choppers I own, and I really like the way it handles, but i'm embarrassed to even show it to people.

We all make mistakes.

At least yours is not claiming to be a Busse. A person made that from scratch. Thats the difference. You had a knife made that was a similar design. whether thats frowned upon is not here or there for this post. its not like you went on ebay and bought from a seller, a knife he was claiming to be a busse but you knew it wasnt. I dont know. its just not the same thing

it is a eusst c|dhsat sar4... 10cm blade.. Piece of crap.. And that fake busse folder in d2 steel made with stainless steel from china.. Fun!

hahahahahahha!:foot::foot:

I take it back, if you actually bought this knowing they spelt COMBAT wrong you are an D-BAG..other than that though its pretty close looking..

i applaud the Busse site for allowing people to list fakes to warn others. Sometimes i go to the Hinderer site and people get scolded for it. I dont understand the logic behind it. They say they dont want to draw attention to the post but WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD WILLINGLY WANT TO OWN A FAKE????? Like the people who hang out on the Busse forum or the Hinderer forum would want a fake? I think the fact that they are on the subforums for these knives says enough about their standard of quality that drawing attention to the fake posting would only protect them and not tempt them to buy a cheap knockoff....just my opinion..but......

Now i see the link was taken down on this thread and I dont get the logic...we should want to help people avoid fakes!! Advertising fakes on a Busse Fanboy site is not beneficial to the seller of the fake..have some common sense, mods!!!

No offense Jaxx! I think you are a fair mod...

This has been brought up before. We do want to help folks to avoid fakes...while not showing where they can be found.
There's no reason why an image of this or any particular fake can't be posted and discussed, but links to them should not be.

Not only this, but at the time Jaxx removed the link it was an active auction, and so it was deal spotting. It had to be removed per forum policy.:thumbup:
