I've been wanting a smaller Busse but I have very wide hands and thick fingers (kinda like dwarf hands as they're pretty short). I was wondering if I could get some input from another guy with large hands on which small Busse would work. I think I'm leaning toward a off duty or something of that size. Would a GW work, or would it be like a 3 finger knife in my hand. As reference, the small sebenza that I carry is the equivalent to a three finger knife for me.
 
I may get mobbed here but you should (have) checked out the Scrapper 4 in INFI. Smallish blade with big mudder grips.

The GW will definitely be no more than a 3 finger in big hands.
 
From the sound of it a GW would be a 3 finger knife for you....one of the Streets, if you find an Off Duty, and pass...please let me know! The Active Duty, a Skeleton Key...I am going to be getting a Mean Street, I think those are a bit larger handle. Ask for some Pictures for comparision!

your getting a mean street???!!!!! cooooool!!!!!!! ;)
 
Hmm, I checked them out but for some reason was turned off by the rubber handles. I don't like the ones on my battle rat user, but I only use it for the ugliest jobs anyways. I'm more partial to micarta. I really like micarta.
 
The badger attacks look pretty good. Hard to find and pricey when I do see them.
 
I originally thought a CRK Shadow 3 (Probably get creamed on the Busse forum for that) would be the right blade for me when I came to a small knife. Turns out the handle is too short :( I even got a very nice custom kydex rig for it. I'm in the process of selling it right now and will probably be looking for a small Busse in the future.

the Off Duty will be a very hard,,if not next to impossible to acquire, since they are so rare.:eek:

maybe you should look toward some of the older A2 models,,the A2 Mean Street will be alot easier to aquire and it is pretty FAT,, or maybe the A2 Badger Atack if you prefer a larger blade that is also FAT,, I have both of these and they both fit my hands well,, the A2 Badger Attack really fits my hand like a glove.
 
The GW is too small for my hands. Nice knives though.

I agree with Paddling_man on the Scrapper 4.

I think the new Scrapper is just about perfect.

BA3 or one of the variants would be my first suggestion. The SHBA may work too, but I don't have one for comparison.
