[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular]Here's a quote from the Busse company store:
[/FONT][FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular]
"The Game Warden has an overall length of 7" with a blade length of 3 inches and a handle length of 4 inches. It is an ideal EDC (Every Day Carry) knife that features an extra wide blade (Over 1 1/16 inch wide!) with a full height grind and thin edge configuration. While [/FONT]not designed for heavy and abusive prying[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular], you can rest assured that you will "behold the power of INFI" in one of the most compact packages ever offered from the Busse Combat Shop!"
.
[/FONT]I've read that a lot people think that INFI is kryptonite, and it's not. It's the best there is, but it still has it's limitations. Think wisely people. If you want a nice sharp knife, don't order the thicker special editions. Sure they look cool, but they won't slice as well! :) Same thing with the thinner blades. Pretty much everyone knows you can lift a bulldozer with a .300 thick Busse, but you can't with a skeleton key or or other thinner busse. Use the right tool for the job guys! Use your head, and good luck! :cool:
[edit, added]
Okay, one last thing. I hope no one takes offense to this message, as I realize it can be taken the wrong way. I've just seen A LOT of folks reselling their Busses right after they order them, and I hope what I'm saying will help at a least a few fellow Busse fans order the right knife for themselves.
 
afaik, kryptonite is not terribly tough. it just happens to be superman's weakness, that's all.

unless you're talking about the kryptonite bicycle locks. then they are very tough. but i don't know about their edge retention and slicing ability.

Agreed! :thumbup::thumbup:

The right tool for the right job is right on ;)
 
Great advice WM. I only order an SE or LE because I want that "pry bar from hell" quality. Otherwise it's always CG for me. And if you have ever seen some of my vids of using my old CG BATAC (thinner than my SE) you will see that it is still an awesome pryer. So the right tool for the right job is great advice.

My problem isn't about "thick or thin" but rather about design or model. I want them all but sadly that conflicts with my $$$. ;)
 
Oh crap. I've been using a SK as a cotter pin to lift up my dozer. It's in my garage and I winch it up to slide my desk and laptop under it to goof off here. I guess I should SPLAT


:)

Hence my reason to use my Thin NICK and leave my XXXL in the drawer. It's just not really a cutting knife. More a camp knife like Ducci says.
