OK hogs,what the heck does HACK stand for?

mykel m · Mar 25, 2011

The reason I ask is I finally scored a Bear Cub HACK.
With tigerhide micarta to boot,aaand a great sheath by Mr. Brown.
I've wanted one for awhile,but they go so fast on the ex.
Finally....ain't he cute.

And with his big brother for size comparison.

I dig little pocket knives & big choppers.
Got two great ones here.
So,can some of you old hogs help me out here?
I tried searching,but my hogfo sucks.
Hard to find And Come by Knife?

I don't know Jared,I read that apprentice knives don't have the front talon hole.
That does sound good for an apprentice completing apprenticeship though.

"HACK" stands for "HOG Apprentice Custom Knives". . . . Yes, it's the return of the Busse apprentice series. . . . There should be quite a few different "One-Time-Only" models offered and not all of them will be made of INFI. . . This particular model is INFI however.

I designed this knife for my daughter Katie . . . Once I finished it, everyone in the shop wanted one, So, here it is for everyone to have a shot at. We call it the Bear Cub. . .

The HACK series of knives has been designed for training our apprentice custom knife grinding team. The prices of these will not reflect their true custom nature. :thumbup: . . . In other words. . . you should be pleasantly surpised by the affordable pricing!!

The Serial Numbered Limited Edition will feature the fossilized mammoth ivory handles. . . .These will be very limited as we have a very limited supply of this rare handle material! ! ! !

Here are the pics!!

The Limited Edition with Fossilized Mammoth Ivory:

Black Micarta:

Blue and Black G-10

Olive and Black G-10

Stabilized Burl

Tiger Hide

Tan Micarta

Ram Horn

Oh, and here's the biggest surprise of all. . . This the HACK Bear Cub next to a Game Warden!!!!. . . .

The HACK Bear Cub has an overall length of 5 1/2" ! ! ! !. . . . It is an unbelievably handy little knife!!!

These are going up after the NMFBM. . . In other words. . . .Very soon!!!!
