Anybody here own one or more?

What is it best at?

Are there any shortcomings in the design?

How hard could a fellow beat on it before having to worry? I know I know.... Moot question. Better question then, How hard have YOU beat on it?

Pics are a plus. Compared to other BUSSE, kin models is a ++.

Not my picture but its got a bunch of Kin in it with a rucki. I ended up selling mine because I never used it. Couldn't bring myself to use it as a machete, as I didn't think it would do well in that role. It seems to me to be primarily a weapon, not a woods tool.

I had one. It is best at the cool factor haha. Depending on where you are, it works best as a machete type tool. Chopping through decently sized branches was less than fun. But you do feel like a BA swinging it around. Granted, in the PNW an axe is much better suited than a machete/Rucki
 
I've got a Rucki, and I wish I'd gotten a satin one too! ;)

The Rucki is the same length as the Gladius:

Here it is with Waki's, Gladius, 1311, 1111, and a couple ASHBM's:

And finally, with a Short Butaniku, Waki, & NMFBM:

Why, you got a Busse Chit that your looking to cash? It would be a nice addition to your collection!
 
Ruck Kensei vs Rodent Rucki, both are great!

Have had both, but they are now gone. If i should get me one today, i would go for this style (for home defence); lifting it for cut, you can poke the attacker on his forehead with the back of the knife if he is getting to close to you.

Rucki is s must have.
Once you thin the shoulders a bit, or in my case the whole blade, you get great performance, bites well and the sweet spot seems to be just about wherever you hit. The closer to the belly, the better though.
Feeling in hand can honestly be a bit rough with a few hard edges from the milling in the micarta.
If I had known well enough I would have gotten hand shaped canvas, it feels so awesome and warm on my Custom RMD.
Nothing some 330 grit won't fix.
