I just received a piece from a Hungarian Maker, Szabolcs Szanto, what I thought is worth to share.
Sorry, no wilderness-pics yet.
lenght of the blade:120mm
thickness:4- 4.6mm
handle:120mm
steel:Böhler N678
it feels great in the hand, the balance is right behind the first rivet.
The handle is G10 with black liners
it will be a nice woods-general purpose knife.

looks like an upswept kephart, perfect skinner and looks like it can still slice well for the thickness with the full flat grind with NO choil! Just don't like choils on small blades.
perfect hunter/bush edc IMOP

yep, it is a nice slicer, and very easy to control holding on the blade, pointer on the tip...
the grind is a very mild convex
 
When I saw the thread title I thought it was going to be something from Laci Szabo. I can only imagine what his TactiMuk might look like.
 
Szabolcs Szanto and other Hungarian knife makers are really producing some beautiful knives. I do believe our own Switchblade61 has a few and can further enlighten us!
 
As a side note... the name of this knife comes from merging the names of Szasza (the nick of Szabolcs Szanto) and Nessmuk into the new model name, SzaszMuk.
 
That is a gorgeous knife. My grandfather was from Hungary, I'd love to have a knife from the maker from there.
