Everyone seems to be fond of the old Nessmuk style knife, Scrapyard makes one, Busse makes one and the Swamprat fans are begging for a Rat version.

With that said I just wondered why there is no interest in a Busse-Kin Kephart ?

In my humble opinion the Kephart is a more versatile blade than the Nessmuk. If I could only own one blade for the rest of my life it would probably be a Kephart style knife, they lend themselves well to bushcraft chores such as fuzz stick making, carving trap triggers or roughing out basic eating utensils. They also preform great at food prep tasks be it cutting up the veggies or slicing your steak.........so why no love ????

I think an SR101 Kephart blade would be great mated up with the larger size basic res-C handle or maybe even a Mudder.

For those unfamiliar with a Kephart, this is my custom version. Picture a version from Dan with a full flat ground SR101 blade and grippy res-C handle.....now that would be a perfect all round knife !
