Well, my 6" and 8" Purebred Fighters came in today. These blades are AWESOME, to say the least. Despite their graceful, slender lines, they still have that Busse beefiness about them. Heavy and solid. The tips are extremely pointy and sharp, but thick and strong. I think the 6" is better balanced, but I'll have to see how they feel after I cord wrap them.
I eagerly awaited these for over a year. I had pretty much written off ever seeing them. As of last week, I hadn't checked the Busse forums in a few months. Lo and behold, the first day I checked in, these PBFs were offered for sale! It was meant to be, I guess.
These blades are true keepers. It is unfortunnate that they won't be made any more, because they are among the unique. They are truly beautiful pieces. Mr. Busse outdid himself here.
My thanks go out to Mr. Busse and staff for such a sweet product.
