What I want to know is, when Jerry shuffles off his mortal coil, will the supply increase and price decrease for scotch and bourbon?It would be a lot funnier if I wasn't the one who was dying here!!!

Oh, thank you, sir, for this encouraging answer!As for our warranty, we should have you covered!
Busse Combat is set up to continue on long after I am gone.
Hopefully, it will be about 30 more years before I go to the great knifemaking shop in the sky!
Currently, there are 6 Busses on the schedule, along with 5 Reckners, with more on their way!
Add to that, another batch of regulars who plan on having their kids work here, and Busse Combat should be a generational knife shop that will carry on for the next 2,000 years!!!
Luckily, they are all very young!

Should I understand from your answer that it is? 
Oh, thank you, sir, for this encouraging answer!
I definitely feel more confident than before, but there is still a missalignment: from what I read onto the bussecombat website, it doesn't state anywhere that "the life" of the knife is limited to 2000 years.
Yeah...Agreed. But it is really nice to tell a prospective buyer that the company warranty transfers with the knife regardless of how many owners or current condition of the knife.
I have hope that Maddie, Paul, & Luke will team up to continue Busse Combat/SRKW, SYKCO. The P&L Statement has awesome ergos & Maddie has martial arts training. I think they would do very well collaborating on new models.
Yup!As for our warranty, we should have you covered!

Let's not forget the BB13 that got thrown across a road by a John Deere, after ruining the deck on said John Deere. That had just a couple chunks taken out of the blade (could have been sharpened out by a professional), Res C handle was still serviceable. And yet
Jerry Busse
went out of his way to contact the perp and replace the knife. 
Man, this talk about Fehrman makes me so wish I would have gotten his Cold Fury when they were out! Man, I've always wanted that Fehrman
Is your warranty knife lifetime? My Lifetime? Or your lifetime?
This needs to be a sticker we can buy lol
I want the Tee-Shirt
I just wanted to hear it from Jerry himself. Mostly to stop all the speculation, as I was pretty sure what he would say! But also because, I must admit, I’ve wondered about the secession plan for Busse Combat for a while now.
As for warranty’s to original owner only, I think most companies accomplish this by requiring original proof of purchase to honor warranty work/replacemant. Tops does at least. It’s kind of a work around for them the way I see it, as even if you give the next guy your proof of purchase when he buys your knife, his name and address are still going to be different.
