yo northern1 -appreciate the post man. I like hearing other DAWGS' thoughts on this little bombproof blade, according to THE BOSS.
I cant believe I never pursued this knife until recently!!! what was i thinking! Well, my money order should be getting to NV here tomorrow and then dude should be shipping it out the same day, if everything goes as planned. at least this is what i am hoping for!
Sent RAINWALKER a money order today for a sheath.. so im in line for a sheath now!~!!!!

I was wondering why you never got this knife earlier.

Or maybe the Howling Fat...that 1/4" you love and I imagine it's a good slicer- my HR is great. Good carry size.
Plus, res-c handles if that is more your style. I rarely see them is the only downside.

Reconseed- as a handy tool, the DMCG is pretty much where its at. With her, I have pried roofing, extracted nails, chopped down a tree, prepped food.. and carried one quite often. I really attribute this blade to the reason why I claim to be a Mutt first, and a Hog second. You can search both forums for my love of the Dmutt. As for a fighter, many a knife will do, but not many will leave the gaping triangular vortex of doom that this will. It goes in easy, comes out clean, and the gaping hole is significant... and if you twist out... forget about it. It is just blade heavy enough that quick snaps are devastating too. As for the handle... I can see larger being good for some hands and glove work, but the Busse Basic handle that she has, in my opinion and for my uses, is king. It is slim as heck so carry is basic... but using a Philippino fighting grip (tight pinky/ring, loose middle finger, fairly open pointer), the blade comes alive like no other. The weight disappears and the blade aweakens with speed. This is my number one defensive carry knife... since day one I had her. My DMCG sits hanging below my left armpit, grip down/point up. Homemade Kydex, and a simple paracord figure 8 crosses my back and grabs both shoulders. I can sit it under a T-shirt on hot days, or over with a jacket on cooler days. Ready for anything... she waits. Rainwalker also made me a nice 'pressure sheath' for my DMLE. The regular belt X on the back, but I specified no button or retention to slow me down,... just blade only, and make it nice and tight... so it wont fall, but when I pull it, it comes clean and fast, with no additional movements needed. Its perfect. (note, the Mustard blue job on her... I bought this LE on the exchange already done up). Yeah, I see whats going on in the choli pics... but its not visible to the naked eye. I will take care of it anyways. Reconseed, $$ came yesterday, you will have tracking numbers today!

Ironballs, thanks man!! YOU ROCK!!!!! Just to make sure, the knife you pictured above in your post isnt the one you are selling me, right?
In terms of carry, Im not sure which way I want to carry her... prolly just on the hip, strong side.

I did not sell you a knife... http://www.dmcg.com/ I sold you an official Doll-McGinnis Publications Category Grading pamphlet. It will tell you all you need to know about which category a given dog should be in, at the Doll-McGinnis dog shows. Complete with checklist and picture guides. I hope there was no confusion about this? Either way, enjoy your pamphlet... it will ship today- -I will come home for a late lunch, and ship... your beautiful, pick of the litter, Minty, Dmutt Combat Grade- I know you will love her!

Congrats on the DMCG Reconseed. It is one of my all time favorite knives. You can dig, chop, pry, & cut with it. IB's assessment is spot on. I shake my head at those folks who talk down on the DMCG because it's not a slicer. Of course it isn't. And I doubt you'll find many tomatoes to slice for sandwiches in the Sandbox but just in case bring a simple utility pocket knife. I like the One Hand Trekker but you may prefer something else.
The DMCG is a unique category defining TOOL. IMO it is much more than a conventional fixed blade knife. Use it in good health.
F5 like you mean it! JYD #15
