Ok, I finally got time to put this on paper. I recently recieved my first Busse, a Satin Jack(LE), and was quite impressed with it. I had some kindling for my fire pit that had to be cut so the SJ came along. The knife completed a quarter cord of kindling out miscellanous white pine and red oak limbs that varied from a little over 1" to about 3.5". And did it work well for a 6" blade. The handle felt great the whole time a I was chopping except for the couple of times I swung it wrong(user problem:mad: not a knife problem). Afterward, the knife stayed pretty sharp. I then hacked on a couple of 2x4s and and seperated them very nicely for a 6" blade. I absolutely love the knife, and when I can afford it, it will be joined with more Busses(the larger ones, like a Battle Mistress;) . I talked with 1whobuys(Chuck) for a little while at the 1500 GnK show before my personal chopping seminar and told me I would be very happy with my purchase. Thanks Chuck, you were right.

Eric, when I can aford one I will. I think the Sj is ready for a big sister:D
 
Dan,
Did you get a chance to fondle of a few of the Busse Goodies at the Indy Show?:)

I had to get out of there before I spent anymore money;) :D:D
 
Eric, I had a chance to do some fondling and I had to leave before I spent money that I didnt have:D
 
I know now that I want a 6 inche blade but i'm stil woundering about the satin jack or the natural outlaw? just woundering what you all thought:D and yes I am making my self crazy:rolleyes: not that I wasent already:p
 
So I am not the only crazy one:D If you buy a Busse you cannot go wrong. I absolutely love mine. I have been into custom knives for a while now, but I will be buying Busses when I can afford it:D

The 6" has been perfect so far, but I strive to get one bigger:D
 
Glad you like the SJLE :) I've been wanting to try a SJ for a while now, but haven't been lucky enough to obtain one. Great review, just what that knife needed after coming into this world :D
 
Dark Nemesis, Most knives do need a good beating when they come into this world:D
