for light hiking, I like the 4" size, although like many folks, the S5 is working in way into regular carry. So light, tough and nicely sized! when I get my pants from Jeff, it will get out more!

i'd say the S5 is a good woods bummin knife.
Alcohol Tobacco & Firearms should be a convenience store, not a Government Agency.

The S5 is fine. So is the Scrap Muk! ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/SYKCO/Muk002.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/SYKCO/Muk003.jpg)
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

The Muk looks to me like a good "meat" knife. How is it as a fire making blade?
(I missed out on the Muk [with some regret], so I have zero experience.)

(I missed out on the Muk [with some regret], so I have zero experience.) Like the original Nessmuk, it works just fine to split kindling and such. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/SYKCO/Fern019.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/SYKCO/Fern020.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/SYKCO/Fern022.jpg)

Voted for 3"-4", 1/8" thick, full convex, SR101 with micarta grips....that would be the perfect woods/bushcraft knife.

Well, now I regret missing the Muk even more. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> I tell you, that was the LAST time I took a "break" from the yard. Learned MY lesson. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/paperbag.gif" alt="" />
