New Folder Design questions, plea to Mr. Busse

I think rags sees a thread post up and immediately considers how best to resurrect it in 15 years or.so, when everyone else has long forgotten about it
 
Honestly I have to agree with DamascusBowie I doubt this will ever happen. I mean I want it to. But if guys have been asking for another folder for this long I just don’t know. This old thread gives me less hope not more lol.

I'm definitely a junior pink piglet when it comes to the Busse trough, but I get a strong feeling that the Busse name is simply incompatible with a folding knife. The Busse reputation and brand are so strong, and to put it on the line to make what is objectively, just another folder would not make sense.

Infi raises the stakes somewhat but not nearly enough imho, as the main strengths of Busse heat-treated infi are wasted on a folding knife. The uniformity, strength and grain consistency of the blade tip to butt are all compromised by the hinge.

In other words, Jerry could easily crank out some numbered cs folders out of satin infi, but that knife would still not truly be a Busse. For that reason I think they'll never do it.

With the Strengths of Busse Small Fixed Blades why would anyone want a Busse Folder...Well The Quality of Workmanship and the Name are Tributes to Hard Working knives. There are some Early Folders that elder Hogs were lucky enough to score at Blade with the conditions to never sell or post photos and there are even a couple of Folders made from fixed blades that were cut and drilled to make the folders. I believe when Jerry gets ready and has his lock mechanism perfected to be covered by Lifetime Warranty we MAY get a chance to see another folder. I would personally prefer a Non-INFI blade maybe Elmax which is a Great Stainless for folders!!!

I held the latest prototype @ Blade 2015. It's badazz. He's still tinkering with his design, which is hopeful, better than hearing nothing & seeing nothing on the folder front. :)
