The Busse GT35 USA 250th Anniversary Special Edition Folder brings rugged Busse engineering together with a bold tribute to American heritage. Built for those who appreciate serious performance with distinctive character, this limited-time special edition features a fully laser-engraved U.S.A. flag across its titanium handle, honoring the 250th anniversary celebration of the United States.
At the heart of the GT35 is Busse Combat’s patent-pending BLOCK Lock, designed to deliver exceptional strength in a lightweight folding-knife platform. Combined with the knife’s integral one-piece handle construction, the BLOCK Lock gives the GT35 an impressive level of structural strength for its compact dimensions. The handle is precision machined from a solid billet of 6AL4V titanium, keeping the knife’s weight to approximately 2.8 ounces while providing a rugged foundation for hard-use carry. Busse’s patent-pending BLOCK Lock is an AXIS-style crossbar lock that delivers familiar, intuitive operation with Busse’s own rugged engineering.
The 3.5-inch drop point blade is crafted from AEB-L stainless steel and finished with a stonewashed surface that gives it a tough, understated appearance while helping conceal the marks of everyday use. Its flat saber grind and exceptionally thin approximately .010-inch edge before sharpening are designed to provide an aggressive cutting profile. With a .090-inch blade thickness and approximately .96-inch blade width, the GT35 balances cutting performance with the strength expected from a Busse folder.
Deployment is straightforward with the thumb stud opener, while ball bearings at the pivot help provide smooth manual operation. The reversible design accommodates both right- and left-handed users, and the tip-up pocket clip is made from 6AL4V titanium for a lightweight, durable carry setup.
At approximately 8.2 inches open and 4.7 inches closed, the GT35 offers a substantial cutting platform without becoming burdensome in the pocket. The approximately 1/4-inch-thick titanium handle gives it a solid feel while maintaining the remarkably low 2.8-ounce weight.
Limited availability makes this USA 250th Anniversary edition especially appealing to Busse collectors, American-made gear enthusiasts, and anyone looking for a distinctive hard-use folder. With its engraved U.S.A. flag, titanium construction, AEB-L blade, and patent-pending BLOCK Lock, the GT35 is built to stand out and built to work.
