Proto Pics Of The BussMuk . . . !!!!!!

Both 3/16" and 1/4" versions would be nice. Make the LE the 1/4" and the CG 3/16" with Orange G-10 as an option for a very nice woodcraft knife. I would guess the blade length is somewhere in the 4 1/2" to 4 3/4" range.
 
I have not gotten a Busse knife in years, partly do to finansing guns, but this I think I could make money for. Assuming it had the full hight grind and was 3/16" or a little thinner. :thumbup:

interesting design ... I might be into a Tigerhide LE in .25" thickness !! I'd never have a use for this knife, but people who do seem to want a thinner version... that's cool! it'll gimme time to pay off the ASHs :)
 
I like it:thumbup: But as others have stated its gotta be thin to win:thumbup:
 
I would love to see you do something like this somewhere down the road. Its a Bush/skinner Knife, but I had this one made in a Fighter configuration, with double hilt and brass fittings. Its 0.20" thick. Its Been in the catalog for past 50 yrs.

WOW , That Would Be A Great Skinner . I'll Take One . Just Not That Color Slabs .Way To Go.
 
1/4 inch is way to thick IMO.

I'd say 3/16 is the perfect compromise.
 
did someone actually say 'sharpened prybar'?

LOL!!! I didn't see that. Too funny.

Definitely need at least one thin version of this one somewhere between 1/8" and 3/16".

It's already getting some discussion over at Ramanon, where the Nessmuk is revered.

Already, one sharpened pry bar remark has emerged.

I posted my pics from this thread. :p :thumbup: :thumbup:

I don't like Nessmuck's myself, but I think those that do will want it at .125 with full height grind in satin/micarta
 
I'm a minority here, but I'm just fine with .25". My Koster Nessie in O1 was .25" as is the one he is making me in 3V. With a flat grind and a convex edge, it's all slicer and can chop as well as any 5" blade will.
I will be just as pleased with a thinner form in INFI though. Either way, thanks Jerry for answering my emails with a real knife.

The line was actually "It will be $300 and way too thick to be useful." That falls into the category of the "sharpened pry bar" remark. Don Rearic would have been proud.

Don Rearic, BTW, coined the phrase Internet Kool-Aid Slurpee Club because he's put off by thick Busses and Busse fans who pay what they pay for the knives.

He's now sort of the unofficial figure head of a covert Kool Aid cult. Don just doesn't know it. :p
