Busse Combat is a custom/semi custom and low volume production cutlery company based in Wauseon, Ohio.
The company was started and is run by Jerry Busse an American knife maker.
Busse Combat manufactures many styles of blade, however most current production blades are large bowie style blades often designed for combat, survival or field (hunting/fishing/camp) use.
Most current Busse blades are manufactured from a proprietary steel called INFI.
This is an extremely tough steel with excellent edge retention.
Until fairly recently Busse knives were made with an asymmetric grind, one side of the grind being an convex grind, the other side a flat grind - this allowed for very quick re-sharpening/touch ups of the edge in the field.
