One to Watch: Busse Battle Mistress Anniversary Edition

Not since Excalibur has a fixed blade release been this exciting. Okay, so maybe that is a bit of hyperbole, but for fixed blade fans and Busse fans that’s probably only a mild exaggeration. The Busse Battle Mistress series may be the toughest knife built by man with its INFI steel, massive blade thickness, and tons of powder coat.

Given the Battle Mistress’s heritage, any new Battle Mistress sparks a feeding frenzy. But the Anniversary Edition is even cooler. This is a grail knife from day one, an instant classic.

Here is a video (a LONG video) showing the infamous “Knife Test” destruction demo of a previous model of the Battle Mistress. You only need to watch a few minutes though to realize that the Busse Battle Mistress is in a league all its own in terms of durability. Report after report, person after person has confirmed in real life use that the Battle Mistress is unrivaled in terms of toughness. Troops have raved. Backyard knife testers have drooled. Survivalists wrote internet love letters. This is a knife that everyone that can afford it loves.

But Busse pulled out all of the stops for the Anniversary Edition. This is not so much a knife as it is a sword, with an 11 inch blade and, ready for it, 5/16 inch blade thickness. It comes in two models, one with the customary cake frosting thick powder coat and the other with a satin finish blade befitting the high status release.

The magic of the Battle Mistress comes from two places–the steel and the ergonomics.
