They are good companies. For more affordable blades look at the sister companies SwampRat and Scrapyard. The Biggets problem is Busse and Busse-Kin are additive. Darned good knives though.
I was organizing drawers in the garage and came across 2 Scrapyard Regulators (Busse-Kin) I purchased back in 2009. These knives are made like tanks, and like all Busse-Kin blades they come with a lifetime guarantee against the knife, not just for the original owner.
