Want A Shot at a Rare Piece of Busse History ? ? ?
Here's Your Chance to Score an Uber Rare Busse Smatchet Prototype. There were only 4 of these Prototype Smatchet blanks made. These are Marked "1 of 4".
These 4 Smatchet Prototype blanks were all individually hand ground with a full convex bevel and satin finished. The handles are all made from the same piece of cross cut mammoth tusk and topped off with a black g-10 bolster with red liner accents and solid nickel silver pins.
Here's the deal. There are a total of 4 of these, PERIOD.
2 of these have already left the shop in random Grab Bags from The 2025 Black Friday Grab Bag Special. The other 2 are waiting for a new home.
These will be offered Ganzaa style and will be sold to the first 2 people who email Garth@bussecombat.com, stating that they want 1.
These will be available Friday, December 5, 2025 at 1:00 PM Eastern. Any emails received prior to 1:00 PM Eastern will move to the end of the line. With only 2 of these available you are going to want to be lightning fast with those emails in order to score one of these Rare, Hand Ground, Satin Finished, Fully Convexed, Mammoth Ivory Handled Smatchet Prototypes.
