this is my first post on these forums, i usually just watch an learn.I recently pick up a basic 3 on ebay, it has not arrived yet.I interested in a satin jack, my question is does this knife come with a sheath and where would be the best place to pick one up. any other comments about this knife are welcome. before watching some of the knife forums i used to think buck,sog were the top of the line knives and they are for what they are. they do not compare to mission,maddog,busse,reeves. I learned an awful lot already. sorry to ramble. thanks alot mark

Mark,
Welcome to the Busse forum!! The CG SJ comes with a cordora nylon sheath with a kydex insert. The Satin Jack is a great knife. You can order them right from Busse. Busse Combat Knife Co.

Welcome! I'm glad you started posting. I hope you keep doing so 
The SJ comes with a kydex-lined cordura sheath. Here's a pic of it:
David of Buy Brown sheathes and Eric of On/Scene tactical sheathes are great for after-market sheaths. Here are their websites:

Welcome to the Busse Forum, glad you stopped by.
I hope Andrew isn't selling that knife he posted a picture of, because I believe it is mine
The Satin Jack can be ordered directly from Busse Combat, it comes with the Kydex/Cordura sheath and I believe they have custom kydex at the shop that you can also order. They are shipping within 3-6 weeks of placing the order or a little sooner.
As far as the Basic 5, 7 or the SJ, my opinion is spend the little extra and get the SJ. The steels are slightly different, Mod-INFI for the Basics vs. INFI for the Combat Grade. The handles are different also Respirene C for the Basics vs. Micarta for the CG's.
Of course if you find a Basic 5, 7 selling cheap, I sure wouldn't pass it up.
Don't worry about sleeping in the Doghouse, I've been doing that a lot recently also

Mark,
The Basic series was great. A lot of people out there still have them and they hold up well. But unfortunately the 5 and 7 are few and far between on the market. You might have to wait a long time and pay a premium for them. Save yourself the frustration and buy the Satin Jack. If you decide it isn't the knife for you they are easily sold. I sold two this week, took no loss at all, and had between five to eight people interested in each. It is a safe investment and a great knife.

eric, you have some nice busses also, it looks like a lot of people sleep in the dog house here. I emailed mike the guy that andrew said may have a sj for sale, its probably sold its been a month now. I really hope i dont like these busses, the last time i liked something was the randalls at last count was b/t 70-80 knives. I still love my randalls, but its time to hold,play with some other knives. The person i bought the basic 3 from just emailed me, said its on the way. I cant wait to see these knives, really hope i dont like them mark

My guess would be $227.00 plus some shipping.
I have bought a ZT Satin Jack from Phil, it was a smooth deal.
Chip, I'm the same way, only owned a basic 5 long enough to sell it
I like those one of a kind, Limited run, discontinued, Variant stuff too.(Oh, and Satin Jacks. I'm at 6 now, 3 or 4 on order)
Can't wait to get the "Quad Jack"
