I have owned over 30 Busse knives, but I still havent found one that I absolutely love more than any other knife. I'm still hoping that day will come. What is your favorite Busse??
 
Wish I could help , but I'm kind of in the same boat . I've owned 4 Scrap Yard knives , 1 Swamp Rat knife and 11 Busse knives . I kept the Scrap Yard Dogfather as my chopper and my 2 Busse Magnum Bear Cubs . I carry one of the MBC's as my EDC knife and I find it's also great for bushcraft as well .
I'm still trying to find "the one" in a mid size knife with a 6 or 7 inch blade .

Different tasks call for different knives. With so many different tasks it might be hard to pick just one.
 
Just curious, what are some of your likes and dislikes of the different models. I am still looking for that "Thats it knife" also. I have not had as many as you but I am working on it. I am waiting on my TGLB, RMD and a SJTAC to be delivered now. I am hoping one of them might just send me. I did buy my first resiprene C handle on a SYKCO 311 and it feels very good in my hand. If the TGLB, RMD or SJTAC don't work for me I might start chasing some more resin c handled knives. I guess this keeps me off the streets....Good luck on your hunt.
 
Two favorites so far: ASH-1-LE and .22" hollow ground Boss Street. Many other great ones, including SFNO-LE and SJTAC, but those are my favorites so far. I also have had the BATAC CG and LE, Meaner, HG-55, Boney Active Duty, and NMSFNO. Actually, the NMSFNO is a sweet knife too (great balance) but I prefer the Fusion handle over Special Forces. I passed on the FBM and NMFBM, thinking they were too big. But I went for the NMFSH -- looking forward to trying my LARGE Busse. ;-)
 
SARSquatch.

After 30+ Busses, its my all-around favorite with the CG BWM & TMDSF right behind it...

Big enough to chop, small enough to do detail, practical thickness, practical weight, excellent ergos, big choil for gloves, nice robust tip and it happens to be the sharpest Busse I've ever owned next to my HOG Muk.

Only thing I would change is the swedge - I don't get the point and I wont sharpen it to a clip.

My favorites so far have been the Skinny ASH and CG NMFBM both of which I no longer own :(
 
I'm quite fond of the Team Gemini Light Brigade knives. Liked them so much I bought two. The Sarge-7 is pretty sweet too, but I only have one of those. It amazes me that two of the best designs for a medium sized user are available right now and there isn't more chatter about them. Horse..., water..., yada yada yada.
 
I LOVE my Basic 9/7/5!! Weight, ergos, design, PERFECTION but the Light Brigade Team Gemini is right up there with those three.
I guess I have 4 favorites.
 
I've owned 30 +, so far the CGFBM, but I am thinking the NMFSHLE may be a contender... we shall see!!!
 
My mind changes depending on which knife I am holding. That said, the SARGE 7, NMSFNO, SYKCO 711, War Dog, and RatManDu seem like my favorites at the moment, with the SARSquatch not far behind. For smaller stuff, the Scrapmaxes and Cultie are currents faves. Ask me again in a few hours! :-)

Oh, and I like free ones too!
 
The Pork Shank is my favorite Busse. It's a PERFECT design.
Although, I'd like to see a Busse Yoroi Toshi. THAT would be some knife!
 
Choiless Boss Jack for me:cool::thumbup:
