One more question, what advantages are there for that recurved blade?

They cut really well. No matter what part of the blade is in contact it drags the rest of the blade through the cut. Kinda like a draw cut with a katana.

If you can afford it, you should do it! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Just remember that the DFLE is right around the corner and I imagine it will come in at around the same price as the Mojo.

Decisions, decisions . . . <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

I only have 1 credit card and there are 3 busse(s)
Dan, quick! Bring on the new model in the next 15mins and stop me from this madness(its 5:20am, friday, 16march here)! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

You should be good to go on Monday, Ted. I don't think they'll sell out too quickly at $200 a copy.
I have just ordered one Bld552... and the $200 price tag suddenly sunk in my head... Swamp Rat Knife Works Mini Mojo w/Logo $198.95 ;M6 Optional Black Cordura Sheath $17.95 ;Shipping (International)$22
total of $238.90
divided by .76 (assuming every AUS$ will buy 0.76US$)
= Grand Total of AUS$314... Ouch! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />
Oh well that what you get for drinking Mexican beer at 5-6 in the morning! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/loopy.gif" alt="" />

It is nice but I got a Busse coming. I'm saving my $ for the DFLE.

good call, so true.


>Horn Dog: "It is nice but I got a Busse coming. I'm saving my $ for the DFLE."
Shoot! Yeah I'd say you got a Busse coming alright! Sweetness!
(tinge of jealousy here.. ok Lots of jealousy!)


>bld522: "If I didn't own INFI and I was thinking about buying a Mojo, I'd have to take a long, hard look at the CG BATAC before I pulled the trigger."
LOL.. i took a short, shallow look at the CG BATAC.. and Pulled the Trigger right quick! (will be my 1st Busse! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> )


>bigocean: "But wow, they sold out pretty quick!"
they sure as heck Did!
"In Stock" from ~12:15 PST to ~12:47 PST.. 32 Minutes..
Uncles are still there.. but the Mojos are GONE!

>Paul: "$200 for a mid size rat knife??? Hasn't Eric seen the Badger Attack?"
good call, so true.

As I recall, the Mischief 6 went for around $170 so the difference in price given the blade shape, length, and thickness is not way out of line versus other recent Rats.

The Mojo's blades are substantially longer (6.75 vs. 5) and thicker (.25 vs. .187) than the CG BATAC. Yes, the BATACs are INFI and INFI steel commands a premium, but there's still an almost 15% price premium for the CG BATAC versus the Mojos. And that assumes you didn't upgrade the handles or buy the LE.

I've found that all the Busse knife companies products are superb. IMO its hard to go wrong with any of the choices...except perhaps with your spouse <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

SYK products are the clear price/performance leaders and not surprisingly also the most spouse friendly <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I hope I can pick up a Scrapper 6 in the ganza!

Bigocean there should be normal run S6's around again, Dan has said so in the various threads- the ganza is just a good way to grab a S6 without the wait..

Out of the 2 the S6 is the one not to miss imho.. But then that will return soon so perhaps get the DF as well for posterity?

You're absolutely right, Kraz. My point was specifically aimed at those who don't already own an INFI knife. IMHO, those who haven't experienced INFI and are ready to spend $200.00 plus on a non-INFI knife, ANY NON-INFI KNIFE, owe it to themselves to consider spending 15% more to get a BATAC CG while they're still available from the factory.

Fair enough my friend. I know I ordered a BATAC too <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I hope you can, too. Good luck.

Thank you kind sir!
