Hey guys and gals....

Well , I was informed that "the Boss man" Jerry Busse actually ground a bunch of SJ LE s himself upon their initial release... .

I just was wondering if anyone can verify this ...

Several sources point me to this tid-bit being true.. :eek::eek:

I was hoping I would not have to call the shop or bother anyone there because I know how busy the Busse crew is ..

That would be awesome if Jerry can chime in though... :o

Thanks !!

I don't think he really did.... But to ensure the correctness of this... HE NEEDS TO MAKE SOME MORE!
 
The one I missed out on at auction (from Germany, went for about $200) was described as being ground by Jerry himself, not that it means much on an auction description.
 
It goes well beyond that, Uncle_Jarvis. I don't know about now, but not that many years ago, Jerry was involved with grinding many of the regular knives that came out of his shop. Not all of them, but a lot of them. At the time that the SJ line was released, that was just normal business, to the best of my knowledge.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(
 
A vast majority of the collection I have left was ground by the man himself. During the time of the SJLE's you covet, he did all sorts of GFD (Grinder Front Designs) stuff. I have a few, there are Hogs here who have a lot more than I do. I know he said he did all of the Flying Badger Attacks which hail from that time period, I remember it well since it was at about the same time I came to know of Busse knives and I was hooked.
