From left to right:

Ramanon MiniMuk = 30 blanks of 12C27, 0.100" thick

Nessmuk = 60 blanks of 1095, 3/32" thick :eek:

BushMaster = 51 blanks of CPM 3V, 3/16" oversize

BushMaster = 27 blanks of O1, 3/16" oversize

Bushcraft = 36 blanks of CPM 3V, 0.145" thick



That pic looks "OK"....seems like a handful of blades...I guess...


But check out this pic...:eek:

A total of 204 blades....I'll be eatin' the dust this winter for sure! :D


Any questions? :eek:

Looking at the first post...I undershot the 3V...:foot:

I have more on its way...hopefully enough for extras!


When they come in....all the BushMaster blanks will be off to the surface grinder to get them all to 0.195-0.198" thickness.

:thumbup:

I am in Istanbul it is 11:41pm here and I still can't stay away from your forum. Anyway, Glad to here you will not be running out of things to grind any time soon.

WOW Dan :eek::eek:

:thumbup::thumbup: cool pile

Cheers

Hey Dan,
What are the specs on the Ramanon Minimuk? And are they all spoken for?
Thanks and happy grinding! Glen

Edit: Never mind -- found it.:)
For anyone as slow and out-of-touch as I am: 2.75" blade of 0.1" 12C27, 6" OAL.

Grind away Dan!!!!!!!!!! One of the MiniMuks and a 3V BushMasters are for me.
 
I'd be really interested in a matching pair of Muks if they're not all spoken for! What are the plans for those? PleasePleasePlease!!
 
The minimuks are only available through Ramanon (no direct linking please).


That said....I'd be happy to make you a Nessmuk with canvas micarta and full convex grind - that would match a minimuk. ;)


This is indeed very exciting for me too, guys....I'm anxious to get these all finished and into your hands!

:thumbup:

I wish I knew as well - Can someone in the know PM me???
Dave.
 
The forums of Ramanon, maybe?

Google is your friend.

I hope this link is ok. I figure you meant no to link directly to one of your knives for sale there.

Nice pile of steel there. I'm really interested in your updated Bushcraft blade, I've just gotta raise the cash. For now I'll keep looking and drooling...

Awesome, Dan, looks like plenty to keep busy with. You'll be tracing piles of steel dust in no time :thumbup: Gotta keep the gods happy!
 
thanks, guys. :thumbup:

cross forum linking I think is still frowned upon here...so if you can edit your post, PB Wilson...thanks!


Google it, guys. ;)

comes up as the first link...:foot:



:p

OK Dan, I sent off a deposit for a Ramanon Mini Nessmuk in green canvas Micarta! When you get a chance, can you shoot me some info on getting a matching big brother in the works as well?

Thanks much!
 
No worries, bro. I'm sure nothing would come of it...I just like to keep everything "on the table"...."above the board"...."over the counter"....etc, etc. :D


Glad you guys like the lil' guy...I sure had fun making the first 2 prototypes!

:thumbup:
