I need to see some in-hand pics of the Magnum Bear Cub. A lot of you guys have huge hands, and I don't. But ive only seen i think 1 in hand pic, and i couldn't tell exactly how small the blade was. So, if you don't mind, please post a pic of some in hand shots of the MBC. Thanks guys. This seems to be a heck of a cool little knife, too bad i missed the ganza...

Same grip in all the pics but different views. I added some popular models and a tape measure.
Please forgive the crappy pics.

The last picture. Is that the size of an old school Busse 3-finger or was the 3 finger moniker just because it was small compared to the other models offered up until that point?


So the RS handle... I'll need to get some specs on that.

Sorry I don't have a pic ready, but I just wanted to say that I take a size LARGE glove and I can get all 4 fingers on the handle of my MBC easily .

To be honest , when I first got them ( I was lucky and scored two in the Ganza) I thought they where going to be too small . I put them away in the safe and figured one day I'd resell them (even though they did feel good in the hand) . Well recently I decided to try some bushcraft with them before putting them up for sale . MAN am I gad I did . These little knives cut like mad . I tried making trap triggers , pointing the ends of some peices of 2x2 , battoning through some 2" maple (splitting the maple I mean) and then carved the maple parts into rounded sticks and such just to see how the knife cut and how tired my hand would be working with it . Let me put it this way , the MBC's will be the LAST knives I'd ever sell . For a knife that is so small and easy to carry on you these are some of the most comfortable knives I've ever used . Anyone who sold theirs wthout givig them a try first REALLY lost out in my opinion .

Ok, great to know. Those pics make that thing look so tiny. But, after reading that im thinking i need to get one of these asap. I hope they release them in different handle options soon!!!!
Thanks for all the pics!!!

I agree Mike-the-knife!! Excellent small knife. I will NEVER sell mine!!!

I also wanted to add, don't listen to rlacan!! I think he's part giant or something!! Hands that big obviously aren't human!! :p

Hey now !!!!!!


I was just about to let him know that I have large hands. My hands are pretty big across the knuckles but my fingers are of normal length. I can palm a basketball but it takes effort. I have bigger palms than alot of people but my shorter finger length make it hard.

For reference my hand across the knuckles is a little wider than 4 and a 1/4 inches. When I make a fist around most knives tightly the meat of my hand from squeezing usually goes past most handles.

I just got a Blade Scrapmax in the mail today and I will post some pictures of that in hand for reference as well. And we all know that whenever I get a new knife I feel obligated to spam you guys with as many pictures as possible lol.

As for what everyone else here said about their MBC I can agree on a few things. Mine was sharp as hell and very well balanced. It woult at the very least make a stellar necker. That being said, considering my hand size and the fact that I have a custom necker being made for me, I decided to let my 2 MBC go. Origional plan was one for my little brother and one for myself. My brothers hands are similar to mine .. my palms are bigger but his fingers are longer so the size would have been an issue. Also He just bought himself a .40 cal pistol, his first firearm. I will instead get him stuff more geared towards shooting etc....

Overall they are superb little knives. Looking back, I prolly should have saved one and set it aside for when my daughter hits 12 or so ( shes 3 and a 1/2 now ). Would have been a nice first blade.

Maybe ill try to track one down once I am finished paying off my existing knives and get my finances back on track.
 
Hehe!! I was just giving you a hard time brother!!
Look forward to the SM in hand pics.
I'm sure we won't even be able see the pommel!!!

HEH.

Yeah when I have the Scrap Max in my hand and make a real tight grip you cant see the handle. the pictures I took I had a slightly relaxed grip and there is a little handle showing. But if I was to stab at somthing or needed to make a cut the tightening of the grip would mean you wouldnt see any handle.

Bout to post them up now, but we all know I take many pictures and im just waitin on photobucket to upload them all as we speak.....
