Busse Swords.

I saw some photos. Totally awesome. Are they available or is it a special order item?

Shelb,

Busse used to make swords (the American Kensai) but has stopped making them as production items. You can contacts Marc (Contender) and he can get you sorted if you want a custom, just keep in mind they run roughly $100 an inch. Hehe, the Battle Mistress is almost a short sword

Ah Busse swords, sooooo many inches of INFI, sure would love to have one Jyen pointed you in the best direction, Marc can make all your INFI dreams come true

Shelby, did you happen to find a picture of Ryu's "Dragon Fang" with the hollow ground point and finger grooves I'm not real big on swords, but that puppy is a masterpiece
...IIRC, it cost over 40 inches

Shelby,
You have received very good info on this thread These guys know how to answer the questions, that's for sure.

Does someone have a pic of Ryu's DF (Andrew you out there) I don't seem to have that one saved.


Thanks

There have been a few Busse swords. The Busse Wakizashi (I think), the American Kensai, and RYU's DF. Plus, I think IWB's got a psuedo-sword coming (perhaps a machete is more accurate). I'll try to post some pics if I can find the ones I'm looking for.

DN,
Thank you. I knew someone had them out there. It looks like you just beat Andrew to the punch.

 

[AluminumOvercas]

Wow, thanks guys! That's more information than ever. The Dragon fang is totally awesome. They should have used it in Blade II. wow, $100 by the inch. That's dedication

Thanks again guys.

BTW, I don't know how to spell Wakizashi .

The AK was A2 I believe, but I know very little about the Wakizashi, in fact I'm not even sure it was ever an actual model (perhaps it was only produced in very limited numbers). If anyone knows more about the Waki, please give it up .

Ok...the Dragons Fang might be the coolest thing i've ever freakin seen!!!!!

 

[Eric Isaacson]

Hey, I just found this out. I guess all the AK's were D2.
Chuck, you want to give anymore info.
