The Forefather Bowie Is Coming This Friday, November 8, 2024 At 9:PM Eastern To The Busse Combat Website!!!

. . . If You Have A Good Imagination, You Could Score One Heck Of A Discount!!!

This model combines the flavor of the esteemed Battle Pappy with a double guard and a rounded outer perimeter.
We can only offer the first run of this Model in a line Drawn Version since that is all the farther we have gotten with it so far.

However, if you order only from the line drawing, you will be rewarded with a very generous Good Faith Discount" (GFD).

You will have to use your imagination to envision what the finished product is going to actually look like!

The finished Forefather Bowie should be fairly close to the drawing since this is the first step in the production of the killer cool Forefather Bowie!
So, what is the GFD and how much will I actually save???

If you get in early enough and score one with the Good Faith Discount, your prices will be as follows!!!

*NUCLEAR Handle Option:*
The Nuclear Handle Option is not for the faint of heart but rather for those bacon-loving HOGs who do not fear the unknown!!!
The Nuclear option on the Forefather Bowie is a grab bag of sorts. You will receive a randomly selected handle from a pile of Nuclear Castoffs.
This pile of handles has many hand-laminated G10 and Micarta slabs as well as some solid colors not normally offered!
This option does not allow you to choose your handle!!!! . . . You do not get A CHOICE! You will get whatever you get by the blind luck of the draw! It is a veritable PORKpourri of oddball handle materials! The Nuclear Option will also include the Busse Custom Shop logo. The Nuclear Option Handles are available on Coated, Stonewashed, and Comp Finished blades.

Nobody likes whine with their bacon, so we have implemented a "No returns/No whine clause"!
There are no returns on the Nuclear Option. . . .

So, you can either play it safe or you can go where only the bravest of HOGs have gone before. . . . to PORKpourri and beyond!!!!

Here's A Line Drawing Of The Busse Combat Forefather Bowie

Looking forward to applying some of that freshly obtained shop cred! Woohoo!

Maybe nuked version will be sharpened… similar to how he did the Fusion Force 9. (But hopefully all)

Hammered Comp finish would look absolutely tits… like on this FSH CS.

Don't give him any ideas. It is a Bowie, it needs to be sharpened. It is a singular weapon with a singular purpose. Function dictates form!

As much as I hate to admit it, I'm at a point in my life that I can't buy every new Busse. I have sold a few that I really liked to free up money for other toys, my Battle Shark paid for a nice Belgium Browning Auto 5, no regrets.
This design looks like a improved Battle Shark, with the GFD discount, I don't think I can pass this one up.
 
Micro corrugated you say??? Do you have an example of that from a prior knife? I assume it is different from the corrugated bevel technology?
 
At 10", this thing is going to a be a SERIOUS CHOPPA! Even though it is supposed to be a weapon.

I'm going to have to think hard on this one...
