I am just wondering who has a dumpster mutt or who has any opinion on it.

So far i see that everyone whos talked about it likes it.



Im just trying to get some information about it

From what I've heard, Seed has disarmed WMD's with it. No joke.

My first Scrap Yard purchase was the SOD, a 7.5" bladed "camp knife". I ordered it from the company, so it took a couple of months to get here...

I couldn't wait that long.

So in the mean time I bought a Dumpster Mutt (Double Cut version) off of someone on Bladeforums and even after I got my SOD, I have to say the DM is my favorite knife right now.

Here it is on a hike with my family.

Now, when the Scrapper 5 gets here, we'll have to see which one I prefer!

Idk, but I'm assuming we're talking about the DMCG (combat grade) as several versions of the mutt are avaiable.
My opinion on it is that it's a cool knife, but I'm sure performance isn't that great.
I think it's a niche knife... it's great for people who are going to need to pry a LOT, but most would be better suited with one of the full flat ground models, (the Dumpster mutt limited edition, or dumpster mutt double cut) a Yardkeeper (CG)
or maybe an s5.
All of those are Plenty tough and would probably. suit most of you're needs better.

Many newcomers are drawn to the Dumpster mutt (I believe I was too actually) and I just want to ask why it appeals to you?

I had one and did not like it that much. It's the only Scrapyard knife that I have owned then sold. Now lots of people do like them and there was nothing really wrong with it from a performance standpoint. I just didn't like some things about it. I don't like the Busse Basic grip; I much prefer the small res-c grip or the mudder grip. I also thought it was excessively thick for anything I would ever use it for so I decided to get my money back out of it to buy other knives that I liked more.

Edit: My only experience is with the DMCG.

Welcome, Kiba. I have a combat grade Dumpster Mutt and a dual cut Dumpster Mutt. From a practicality standpoint, the dual cut is more useful due to the full height flat grind. What I will say about the combat grade is that is has a certain coolness factor just because it's a relatively small knife that is incredibly thick and heavy duty. The main reason I keep mine is simply because I think it's so cool and unique. To me, it seems like a very very heavy duty do-it-all knife. Not really good at any one thing, but can accomplish most tasks thrown at it. You'll never have to worry about breaking it, that's for sure!
