..... so... suppose you are off to Mozambique to hunt Cape Buffalo :D:D:D which Busse would be your companion.... ??;)








Yes... there are a number of rational responses and really, what am I going to "need" a Busse for there BUT, what better way to subtley drop into the conversation here that it seems I am off to Mozambique.... ;)
 
I think taking a Cape Buffalo with a Gladius would be awesome.

Congrats on getting to take one of my dream trips. Someday perhaps I will get around to it.

I may rename my .375 "Galdius" for the trip... I am not sure the Busse model has enough "reach" for me... ;)
 
First you got to figure out what you think you are going to be needing a knife FOR in MZ. Cutting brush, skinning the buffalo?, finishing the buffalo off? why are you killing the poor buffalo anyway? LOL
 
The beauty of any such hunt in Africa is that all the heavy lifting (dressing/skinning etc) is all done for you. I could probably be well served with a Swiss Army knife but where would the fun be in that..... ;)
 
I think JParanee has done such a hunt in Africa, you may want to reach out and ask him, as he may not see this thread.
 
Light enough to always have it with you. 5 inch or more for penetration if necessary. I say Boss Jack or Ann. Steel Heart.
 
One that you will like top leave as a gift for the PH, lol, I have been there and I use with me an Anniversary Steel Heart, just for the fun to cut some meat, and to help with the skining a anorexic small knife will do, good luck with your hunt
 
Andy, that sounds like a nice holiday you're going on!
You should take one of your ASH-1s, you'll have spares at home...;)
For reach... probably MOAD would be best :D
Do you need anyone to house sit for you? :rolleyes:
 
LOL.... well it is NOT my intention to hunt said Buff with a blade... my .375 will take care of those duties.... the PH will need to be something special to earn a Busse off me (I have worked in Safari Camps so I am a tough judge, my last guide, not in Africa, nearly had seven shades of shyte beaten out of him for way under performing :D ) !!!

I am leaning to a Boss Jack (of course that makes for a great excuse to buy one) ... :D
 
Congratsulations Andy! Your going on a dream hunt.:cool:

Woo, hoo!.

Take a BUNCH Of pics please:)
 
That trip sounds awesome. Maybe Dave will let you borrow a bear cub for the trip.
 
I say a Boss just so you get to buy one! :)
I'd want to take a blade of every size.
NMFBM = Chopping
TGLB = Finishing off the buff or bad guide
PS or AMS = Eating and other small tasks
I still need a small Busse...
 
I am definitely with Garth on this one! Gladius :thumbup::thumbup: You can wear body armor and scream, THIS IS SPARTA! That would be awesome to see :thumbup:
