Why Does Busse Only Distribute to the Following?
- Thread starter Peter La
- Start date
Sorry about that. I should have said:
"Why do only the above have Busses for sale?" www.knifezone.ca says they carry Busses but I emailed them and they said they don't.

My best guess is that he is selling all of the knives that he can make to a standard with which he is happy. In such a situation, more distributors just mean added overheads and administration headaches with no corresponding benefit.
Business school textbooks are full of case studies in which small companies grew so much and so fast that they lost what made them unique and successful in the first place. May it never be so with Busse! I can wait for the knives.

I think you can take Bladeart off the list. I'm fairly certain they get all of their Busse's from trade-ins for other knives.

as far as i know busse combat doesnt distribute to anyone, for similar reasons to why swamp rat doesnt. you can find their statements on the subject at their website -

shomertec puts in orders for blades, and they may get a large order discount, but im not sure that they are a dealer in the normal sense of the word. the basic idea behind not using anyone as a dealer is that it saves the customer money in that there is no mark up from the middle man.
