I have not had much time to use the new Mini AK Bowie but that that I would share some photos to give folks an idea of the relative size of the new family additions.

Here we have the 15", 12" and 10" sizes:

Bhakta did a real fine job filling my special request. I had been nervous since I had previously read the history of the chubby stubby AK Bowie but that story ended well too.

Thank you very much Yangdu for being willing to fill this special request.

Here is a comparison with some other well known offerings:
- 15" BAS
- 15" AK Bowie
- 14" YCS Karda
- 12" AK Bowie
- ESEE 6
- - the 12" AK Bowie will displace an ESEE 6 for EDC when appropriate
- 11" YCS Karda
- 10" AK Bowie
- 9" Grand Baby Dui Chirra
- 9" Bilton

I may have to see about getting me one of the newer lighter 15" AK Bowies with the 1/4" spine. That has been sounding real nice.

Very nice I a,m going to have to consider getting one of these. The 10" looks like it would be just about perfect for some of my camping trips
 
I need one of those so badly. I just put a bunch of my "babies" in storage while the wife and I work on getting our home ready to put on the market.

I'm really hoping more of these make it in on the next shipment. I have a birthday coming up at the end of next month. I'm hoping my wife takes the hints I keep dropping:D

Love the 10"er. Thanks for the pics.
 
Nice knives you have there. I have found myself wanting a small HI as of late, and your mini AK bowie is exceptional. The horn on the 2nd knife from the bottom is stunning.

Buy any of the smaller HI knives and you will love them. The new Mini AK Bowie is exceptional and will prove most useful.

The knife that you referred to has a deer antler handle. I was quite pleased when I received it and found how nicely polished the handle was.
