NEW from BUSSE???

Evil Monkey · Jul 21, 2011

I was wondering if any of you had seen this knife before I bought it off a guy that says he got it from a guy that knows another guy. As far as he knows, he says it's a pretty rare blade, and said he thinks it's called a Combat Grade Anorexic Choil-less Flying BK Variant. I asked him what the "BK" stood for, but I was at a noisy trade show so it was very difficult to hear I think he said Butler Knife Which, I guess, may be a throw-back to a 17th century style blade that butlers used to carry.

It's a very light knife maybe a Light Brigade prototype model, I'm not sure. It's Sleek and quite fast in hand, yet is a phenomenal chopper as well (made quick work of my banana this morning)!

I got the knife, a kydex sheath with Tek-Lok, and really nice drop-leg leather sheath all for $790 Which I think is a STEAL!

If anyone knows any more about this model (or if a satin or an LE exists) I'd love to hear from you. I'd also be willing to start a Passaround with it if there is enough interest.

Thanks!!

looks like a weak tip

You should put it on the exchange. I bet one of our resident dealers would love to have that in his collection. Its definitely some sort of flying variant. Is that arctic white?

Oops...double post.

Methinks you have stumbled on a blade of GREAT historical significance, You should immediately fly to Vegas and see Rick @ the pawn shop and he can call in someone who could verify this thing! This could be BIG VERY BIG!!!

That looks like a very rare Stealth Hawk prototype :thumbup:

Let's see you cutting up a car with it

Epic post!

OldPhysics · Jul 21, 2011

I don't know. Might not be a real Busse. Where's the talon hole?

mamun1024 · Jul 21, 2011

Haha good one

Bigfattyt · Jul 21, 2011

Meh,

I think the handle ergo's won't be too great in my big paws!

Maybe if it had a bit more handle width. I suppose you could drill the handle for slabs, and that would help. I would have to send it back to the shop for a plain edge too. I don't like serrated edges (except the occasional flying serrations!)

oge14 · Jul 21, 2011

holy sh!t where did you find that?

better yet do you know if they made anymore?

PeterPHWS · Jul 21, 2011

I had a good laugh too

Flatsman007 · Jul 21, 2011

Hahaha... Now that is funny.

komondor · Jul 22, 2011

I don't think Busse made that model with serrations. Those are aftermarket.

Are you going to get a sheath made for it?

I'll probably get a nice Chuddy Bear.
