Hi folks. I am new to the world of Busse but I think I've finally caught the bug. In another week I will have the funds to purchase a Bushwacker Mistress. Would prefer it in Sage or Tanker Gray (Jungle Green is okay too).

So, would the only place to buy one be in the Exchange section of these (or other) knife forums?? Does Busse still offer these?

Thanks for helping this Busse newb!

Hi,


Welcome to the Busse madness. The exchange seems the best way to get way to score one, Busse used to offer them a few weeks back. Was lucky enough to order an LE the day before they introduced the KZ2.

You might also find some mistresses at knife shows, but yeah best bet is to buy from the forums now...
 
You can try to email Amy at Busse Combat and see if you can still get one from the factory. It would be worth a shot.
 
Go to the Busse website now and click on "ordering" - you should be able to order a bushwacker mistress if you browse the knives for sale.
 
They are still on the ordering page, but NOT on the knives page. If you want one at retail price, get it NOW.
 
To be a little more detailed, in case you're not familiar with the http://www.bussecombat.com Web site:

Click the "Ordering" link in the left-side navigation
Click the "Secure Online Ordering" link, which opens a new browser tab (at least it does in Firefox)
Click the "Browse" button on that page
Click the "knives" link or "Entire catalog" button
Click the Bushwacker Mistress Combat Grade item's "Buy 1 Now" link
Then check the boxes to configure your color/handle options and
click "Continue Shopping".

Their cart seems a bit quirky in that "Continue Shopping" actually takes you to a checkout page. To really continue shopping, you then click the "Main Menu" button, followed by "Browse", and "Entire Catalog" to add either another knife or a second (differently configured) BWM.

Thank you!! Very helpful! And I'm really glad to see I can still choose my color options. One question: Is the "Combat Grade" any different from the standard Bushwacker Mistress or is that considered the standard? Thanks again.
 
Combat Grade (often just called CG) is the "standard" production grade for Bussekin knives. LE / Limited Edition is the higher-end production knife, usually in satin rather than being coated and they're frequently numbered. The final step up (in Busse Combat and Swamp Rat) is to buy a Custom Shop version -- they're not sold through the Web sites (they can be bought at shows or through 'ganza offerings on this Busse Combat subforum) and usually have something special, like serrations, and/or a modified blade shape, and/or special handle materials. Custom shop knives are not numbered but have a different logo on the blade.
 
Also I don't think they will charge you right the way, and will do so when you knife is ready to ship. So you should be OK financially too.
 
If you have ANY questions about ordering a knife direct from Busse, simply call the shop. Amy and her Customer Service team will be only too happy to help you. :thumbup:

If you are really unlucky the Janitor might answer the phone. He has been warned, repeatedly, by Amy not to attempt to take any orders, as he is frequently drunk and will probably mess up your order. :rolleyes:
