The SOS is one I've regretted not adding to the fold. Very nice duramax!

Thanks, it’s a pretty sweet little blade. The handle is a little small for large hands, but it does do well as an edc blade. I have a BG SOS also for edc.

The handle (length) was what held me back. As much as I think I want one, that pic you posted with the field knife about confirms it would be a little short for me. Looks great with its RMD heritage though.

Very true. Your probably right with fit, the handle with lg hands kinda forces thumb placement on blade spine. But there’s a nice little pocket Busse placed there that cradles thumb :-)

Cool. I love the handles on the Rats. I guess it's (the SOS) not technically a Swamprat but it has Rat dna for sure :D

When I did Grogs 'muk I learned that the scales from Busse were not epoxied on. Only thing holding them was the mechanical clamping force of the flared tubes. There was a little corrosion under there (easily polished out, no pitting). Is that ever a problem with Busse?

Although I've spun the fasteners down at times, I don't believe I've ever pulled the scales on any Tony. I've probably used more Busses (kin) than any other blades except maybe a Buck 110, and I would say from a user standpoint, No. I don't think it would be a problem at least in my lifetime. And my maintenance is.......mediocre......to say the least.

Grab a call and give it a shot! They're strutting right now, but our season doesn't open for a few more weeks. Most of the gals in my family like it, too, so if MTM is at all inclined to hunt them with you, the two of you would have a blast. It's a whole different experience when you call them in. Wear good camo though, those suckers have eyes that are ridiculous.

Here's the NMSFNO that's with Eric. I don't know how much holstex he ordered, but I hope there's enough extra to cover this one.
