So, How Many Folders Should We Make In The First Run? . . .

[JACKMANDU]

Clues- not a frame lock. Maybe liner.
- Magnacut in house at Swamprat.
Answer- Rat trap 2

 

[Jerry Busse]

Hmmmmm. Maybe clarification is in order….. Jerry?

While different prototypes continue to pile up with tweaks and such, it became painfully obvious that we are not yet ready to take a headcount for the Busse folder. We would like to be able to show something that is as close to the finished product as is possible before we do this. We hope to have that within the next 8-12 months. So, we are going into a tactical hibernation of sorts and will hopefully have something for you to see much sooner than later!!!

I like the fact that you are taking your time with this project, I would rather wait longer and get a BUSSE worthy folder.

 

[PeteyTwoPointOne]

Is "8 - 12 Months" the new "Two Weeks??!?!!?" Egad!

 

[Soulrack223]

That's fine by me. 8-12 months, so I'll check back New Year's 2023.

Better yet, come back for Black Friday Shop Credits to go towards the folder. It’s a free discount.

You say the prototypes are piling up. Could this mean we will have multiple prototype raffle winners?!?!

Wow ...I been seeing HOGs ask for a folder, other HOGs and Jerry tease 2 weeks ever since I first started lurking here, and 10 pages into this thread I still wasn't sure if you were having some Holiday fun with us.

Never imagined I would be so stoked to see "two weeks" turn into "8 - 12 months" - I can't believe it's happening!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with

Will the knife be called the "Bait n Switch"? "The Tease"?

Maybe you could get whomever is in charge of the Swamp Rat forum to come out of hibernation.

There was a patina contest I think over a year ago with no winner announced. And the end of last year they mentioned Magnacut was in the house but not one response to that.

A lot of people are getting irritated.

 

[boring]

are any folders going to have a smatchet blade?

 

[unwisefool]

I'll be interested to see if something comes of this. But once again, been waiting over a decade, so not holding my breath

 

[Raptard]

I was doing trademark work and came across a new trademark called Block Lock by Busse. Interesting indeed.

I need to see if the trademark for my design is in place yet. The UnwiseFoolTool. Patent pending of course.

That's the best news I've heard all year in the Busse world, with a little luck the guys making the decisions will get heavily wrapped up in boozing over the next 8-12 months and we can keep kicking that can down the road and continue the production runs of REAL knives (ie, ones without hinges... )
