Just wondering about the hardware/fasteners? Are the Ti as well? They look similar in finish as the Ti slabs.

Can you please provide a high-level overview of how this differs from the GT-35 I ordered a few months ago? I can see the handle shape is different but what else? Sell me!

This makes me glad I chose the thumb hole option.

I was a bit puzzled by a two-piece being penned “integral.”
The one-piece GT-35… I get calling it “integral.”
We’re all Interested to hear more… all the little nuggets.

Semantics. Jerry called this the "Integral frame" folder. The 2nd word in the quotes is key!
The frame is part of one of the scales, so technically, the wording is correct. I get why he called it an integral frame, vs. just "integral".

I was on the fence but definitely in for Infi blade and thumb hole. I usually carry a waved Emerson Kwaiken. It sure would be cool if Busse could work out a deal with them to have a wave option on one of their folders someday.

Thank you! I guess my browser needs a cache dump or something, but your link did the trick. Whew! Thought I missed 'em

Anyone know if these are going to come around again? Had a family emergency that threw me off course for a while and I didn't finish my order before leaving.

Hard to say…
Call the shop & see if you can get “put on standby” for one. Sometimes people cancel their order. Or, you might just get lucky & they’ll let you get one. Good luck!

Anyone received theirs yet? I ordered mine on May 10th and the order went almost immediately to "paid in full", but haven't heard anything on a ship date yet. Eager to get mine!!
