It's just SJs.
BUT, back when, on the Busse web site. the SJ was billed as the 'only straight handle Busse offers'. This was during the Ergo era, 02,03.
Still, SHSJ sounds stupid to me since there was never a Ergo version.

Hmm, if the Satin Jack Tac's were called that, there would be no confusion...:thumbup:
The SHBA always made sense to me as there also are the BA-E, BAIII and the BATAC (did I miss any) and a means of differentiating between them was needed. With the Satin Jack there have only been two (not counting the varients) so SJ and SJTAC is really all that is needed. IMHO
I'd like to call 2 or 3 of them "mine."![]()
I see people refer to a Satin Jack Tac as simple a Satin Jack often enough that saying SHSJ is plenty welcome as far as I'm concerned. At least I know exactly what they're talking about when I see their post or thread title.
I see it sort of like people saying FFFBM instead of FFBM. It's not exactly correct, but close enough and at least I know what they're referring to.
lets just call it JACK, but it is definitely not an SH.
The skunkster calls it a SHSJ, and Jerry thats good enough for me.![]()

Above is an old SJ next to a BBSHSH and a SHBA.
Do it have the same handle? NO
Well then it ain't a "SHSJ" no matter what anyone says.
Below, the top two knives here ae BA-IIIs.

Do them two knives have the same handle as an old SJ? Yup them two do... would you have me call them SHBAs?
No you wouldn't because.... errrrr they don't have straight handles.... simple isn't it?

Maybe it's just me but I find it confusing that some on here refer to the original Satin Jack as a SHSJ.
I always thought it was known as the SJ and was available during the Busse ERGO era.
If we call them SHSJ shouldn't we also call the Badger with the same handle a SHBA3????
Anyway the poll is should the knives in the pic below be called SJ or SHSJ????
