Here she is, one of the first of the new limited offerings from the Busse Custom Shop. The knife shown is the Limited Edition with Satin Finish, Serial Number, Zero Edge Geometry, and Ultra Black Micarta handles. There will be a Combat Grade version with standard black finish at a very attractive price. This will be the lowest priced Limited Edition, to date, from the Busse Custom Shop.

Announcement of the name: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...cially-named-SATIN-JACK?p=1081562#post1081562

The new six inch blade is officially named "SATIN JACK"

Congratulations to CLIMBER. . . excellent name!

All finalists will receive a $20.00 certificate from Busse Combat. These are good toward the purchase of any combat grade knife direct from the shop.

As to the rest of the entrants, this was by far the toughest decision on name choice we have had to make. Many of your names will be more appropriate for future models. . . . thanks again and keep on entering.

Yours in Nuclear naming contests,

Jerry Busse

Wow, congrats on some nice knives!
I especially like the Desert Jack on the left and the ZTSJ on the right; both are pretty rare.
