That’s just sticking your head in the rabbit hole, you haven’t even started to go down it yet.Fitting this one pops up today. Finally able to “complete” my 10” chopper collection by adding a HDMC to the stable. Thanks Fernando for helping me with 2/3rds of that

Only ones I feel I “need” now are a FK, potato knife and a Shiv. Thought I had a lead on a shiv but its growing colder by the minute

Don't listen to Marc. He only owns like 3 CPKs. He is just being jealous
Actually added the “complete” part due to the last time you informed me of this. Enabler
Buy it, and then buy the upcoming one too. Keep the one you like best and sell the other, or keep them both. You're welcome
Nathan said it would have the specs of the light chopper (length, weight, grind), but shape/profile of the medium.
That’s the spirit!!!Buy it, and then buy the upcoming one too. Keep the one you like best and sell the other, or keep them both. You're welcome

Y’all are a bad influence!
Hmm. That sounds about perfect! If it really won’t be here until the end of year I may just have to get both.
No way to know really. They don't come up for sale often. A behemoth chopper went for around $1200 a while ago.Y’all are a bad influence!

What would y’all say is the going price for a MC?
It's not the same, but it is comparable. I'm not saying that the Busse is the same or even as "good". The CPK MC is definitely going to be a more refined knife, with better/thinner edge geometry, more comfortable ergonomics, better balance, etc.
