ThanksSo you got one of every shade of micarta on stonewash? That's a pretty epic haul, well played sir. Which one do you like best? I'm loving the green canvas on sterile stonewashed that showed up today, matches the stonewash finish beautifully... pictures don't really get this across well.
Nice!Feel silly sayin it but this new one is actually pretty stabby. The choil is also sausage finger ready.

Haha.. They are NICE! The black mircata with Stonewashed looks Awesome!!WOW!!!!!!!
HOLY S@@T!!!!!!!
I just got mine in the mail today. Stonewashed blade and black canvas micarta. Did I say WOW??
Dang I’m blown away by this knife!
On all the other Busse’s I’ve had the tube fasteners were countersunk a bit and sometimes the micarta was sharp around the edge and you would feel it when using it.
This one the tubes are even with the micarta. That makes a HUGE difference in how it feels in hand.
After getting this I will NEVER go back to a coated blade. I’m so happy we have the stonewashed option now.
And the edge? Another WOW! Jerry wasn’t lying when he said it was thin.
I’ve never been so excited about a Busse as much as this one!
Anyone that’s still waiting for theirs will be amazed!

I mean unless you're my wife in disguise, I doubt it.Maybe Santa Claus will bring you one.
Mine arrived today after getting an email last night from UPS saying it was delayed until Monday, lol. Was pleasantly surprised when I got another email this morning that it was rescheduled back to today again!
Very nice knife, I much prefer this one to my old Fusion Battle Mistress Battle Grade. That ole' pig was just too much knife for me as a smaller statured person and this one is just at the ragged edge of what I'll be interested keeping. I like the new handle contours also.
I was also very happy to see that the edge was ground quite thin on these compared to Battle Mistress of all flavors from years past. This one should perform very well penetration-wise, especially if you wanted to reprofile the edge more acutely for chopping wood.
Father & Son gives this one TWO THUMBS UP!

I'm always late to the party
I much prefer the feel of micarta when it comes to chopping.Crappy pic but mine showed up today, wish I had gone for two g10 handles, just feels better to me.
I may have been one of the first. I got mine on Saturday. And I LOVE it!Satin is shipping boys. Just got the ding; be here on 12/16
