Ok, since the Mini MUK thread has disappeared, here is the new one.

Who is planning on getting a Mini MUK and what are your intended uses?
How do you see it fitting in your rotation of carried knives?

I am particularly interested in how I like it in hand. Noticing the handle shape and angle with how it presents the edge, I am thinking this will be much friendlier for edc and kitchen uses compared to the WTH.

Here's to hoping that my cancelation order gets fulfilled.

Does this help? I saved a screen shot from all the knives I purchased during O2W.

I saw all of those, but thank you regardless.

I was mostly looking for the conversation that went along with it. Guess I might as well change my OP around a bit...
 
Now that i think about it, i should of tried to get that Fancy Mini Muk during Ganzaa, would make a nice Lime slicer, and hell of a conversation piece, now i got to do it with TG-p lol
 
I know they are going to be popping up on the radar soon, but I am still antsy to see the post from Busse!

Bring forth the Mini Muks!

Do you hunt or fish?
What are your planned uses, and how do you see if knives will suit you or not?

What color combo/handle mat do you have on order?
 
I have a Blue/Black G10 LE on order to match my Baby Boom LE.
And a BG in Moss Green with Maroon Micarta. What was I thinking?

Yes and yes :D

I may be one of the odd ones, but I really only like to have one piece of INFI in each size!
I have:
Small: AMS
Medium: INFIDU
Medium/large (8-9") haven't found the 'one'
Large: CGFBM

I use them all,, and can't really justify any pieces collecting dust, YMMV

That being said, I guessed the name on this one, so got a shop credit. I don't have any small pieces of SR101, but this one I might just keep, as it has much more belly than the AMS, which could be great with game.

Better to not need and have than vise versa?
I am a direct example of your reasoning, I am on the cancelation list, waiting for someone to say they don't need a BG...

I am right there with you for just about this entire post, but especially the boldface type.

I had an BG AMS, but it just didn't fit my hand as I had wanted, so I didn't use it. Since I didn't use it, I had to part with it.
My first Busse, gone forever. And I thought I was able to get out unscathed... I didn't even use it and I am looking to buy one.

That being said, the blade shape and heel offset is what caught my eye.
I like the Nessmuk design, and I feel that Busse has seemingly nailed an updated take on it.

I am just hoping that my hand fits the "ergo" handle... The worst case is that I can remove the front talon hole for a little more room.
 
So, these are starting to land and I know there are quite a few out there since I didn't get an email. But that leads us to the problem, Where are the Pics?

I have yet to see any in use pics, and only about 2 in hand pics?
I hope folks are planning on using these, it was the inspiration behind the original design. Add the Busse materials, warranty and vision of it, and I can't see it Not performing...

So again, Where are the pics?


Mr. Pirtle, do you have any sheath work for these you would like to share?
 
Here ya go!
Great blade here, the ergo handles are just awesome. Nice belly, should make a great skinner.
Beef put a great edge on this one, I requested it to be as ground thin as possible within warranty.

I have been talking with rcb since last week.
If this ends up in my hands (and it fits them), I will etch the logos, strip it, and make leather and kydex sheaths for it and it will likely be my fixed blade edc for the foreseeable future.

A PCB etchant patina might be in order, I am unsure of that so far.
