The Busse Combat Folder Has Become A Reality . . . And It Only Took 30 Years!!!

It Is Coming Friday, September 19, 2025 At 9:00 PM Eastern!!!


The Busse Combat Ground Troop 35 (GT 35) Integral Folder makes its debut this Friday, September 19, 2025, at 9:00 PM Eastern.

These battlefield-ready folders are designed for those in harm's way, where every ounce counts!

The Busse Combat patent-pending BLOCK Lock, combined with its integral one-piece handle construction, makes the GT 35 the strongest, light-weight folding knife EVER made!!!

The handle of the GT 35 is machined from a solid billet of 6AL4V titanium. This gives the entire knife a weight of approximately 2.8 ounces!!!

The Busse BLOCK Lock surpasses the strength of every other folding knife of similar dimensions in this galaxy!

With a very thin-edged blade that measures approximately .010" prior to sharpening, the Ground Troop 35 is ready for deployment!!!

The first run of these magnificent folding knives will be marked on the spine of the handle with the word "Prototype" .

This first run of prototypes will consist of orders taken within the ten days allotted for this run.

Orders will be shipped in the order in which they are received. So, the sooner you order, the sooner you will receive your knife.

Why did we use BC AEB-L for the blade material?

Combine our heat-treat protocol with a steel that is already known for its toughness and excellent stain resistance and it is the logical choice for this project.

Would love to see the thumb stud version!

Any chance of a future run in Magnacut?

Or a screw hole to attach a thumb disk...or a little rod to function as a catch to open the knife by snagging on pocket...

I'd be in on magnacut too if that was an option, who knows maybe they'll start selling blades in different steel you'd be able to just drop in.

But, so far my sykco cheff knife is doing well.
 
Holy crap they finally did it
😳 ... annnd they went modern with an integral aaaand a modified top liner crossbar dayum.. we need some elmax versions
