SOLD AND SHIPPED TO by Steve O. Offering a sterile, unused, uncarried, tan coated/tan canvas micarta Busse Active Duty/Heavy Duty. Shipped to you USPS Priority Mail insured for FINAL PRICE of $245 Paypal or $240 USPS MO (CONUS only, please). Please see the attached photographs.
NOTE OF DISCOSURE: While this knife was originally purchased on the Exchange as an Active Duty, I've been told by well-reputed Busse hogs here on BF that this is actually a Heavy Duty - the ways to tell it's an HD is (1) the smaller talon hole compared to a regular Active Duty, (2) the saber grind is higher up on the blade than the regular Active Duty, and (3) a more aggressive texturing on the Heavy Duty's micarta scales. The blade length is the same for both the HD and AD - 3.5 inches. As for blade thickness, it looks to be around .20 compared to my .195 Leprachaun Active Duty, but I don't have calipers for an exact measurement. You can search the forums for additional information on the HD, including this one. Thanks for looking!
