Anyone ever ordered one of these?
I want The Deuce so bad I would almost spend the money to get it. |
You can't tell me this guy doesn't look just a little creepy, psycho, and maybe 1/4 of the way towards zombieville already?

Busse can be a little pricey.... BUT what you get is definitely top top grade steel.
zombietools makes some cool looking stuff... and I'm guessing its pretty damned durable too. But I think you're definitely paying a little more for the fancy looks and marketing that goes along with it at the cost of quality. For the same price, another maker could probably produce a blade with more fineness and a grade or two up in steel quality.
That deuce looks damned cool. I'm sure it would do the job wonderfully and look kickass mounted somewhere.
I do tend to favor something a little more maneuverable however. Hallways, quick stabs, but long enough to get a little reach and gain a little momentum in open air swinging. Likewise balanced right as to allow for very quick and precise cuts, as opposed to the brutally effective (
IF it hits) cleaving of the deuce.
--------------------------------------------------
Sadly, all of the following knives are obtainable...
for a price, and were much cheaper if purchased first hand from the manufacturer at the time of production and availability.
For the same general money I would probably buy the
Scrapyard Scrapizashi $320 .... not so pretty, but more finesse than the duece. I saw a great youtube video of the thing being bent 180 degrees - didn't break, and returned about 90% to form. That's quality that I don't think the zombietools would be able to match.
If it was at all affordable, I would gladly jump up to the
Swamp Rat Rodent Waki $550 .... there's videos on youtube of this thing chopping down trees and then being shaving sharp.

And of course you double that to get INFI steel, but I think the Waki hit's the sweet spot.
Busse AK47 $1150
And frankly, if I was spending that much, I would get a Busse Gladius (see below)
--------------------------------------------------
Now, if money were no object, this is what I would get. Hands down, the end all be all sword for me! It's a thing of beauty!

Had I that kind of disposable income and I ever saw it for sale at that price, it wouldn't even be a question
The Satin finish would be my prefered finish. not as tactical as black, but its just too damned pretty on that gladius!
I'm not a big guy & I've got small hands, so I could wield the gladius two-handed with great finesse or brutal chopping, while maintaining the ability to use it one handed in a pinch.

Finally, I don't think I've ever seen a bigger single group of blade p r * n in one set of photos than right here. Yes, I realize he's a dealer, but still this guys set of blades is incredible.
