Sears - aka Nessmuk - was a outdoorsman and a writer who choose for his trips on the woods this trio of tools so, the fixed blade choosen by Sears took the name of "Nessmuk", and this is the modern version of this knife, as per Scrap Yard Knives, the Muk: you may find specs at the SY link http://www.scrapyardknives.com/knives.htm Let's start with any light jobs, in the kitchen and now a few of batoning, fuzz-sticking, notching [img]http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/4787/dscf00171.jpg[/img] [img]http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/9876/dscf00181b.jpg[/img] [img]http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/7427/dscf0021t.jpg[/img] this is my preferred way to wear my Muk, especially on winter [img]http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/5839/dscf0029x.jpg[/img] [img]http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/3269/dscf00261.jpg[/img] all in all, a good knife, handy and easy to use, IMHO great for camping and outdoors activities, wit a reasonable cost [img]http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/9625/dscf00281.jpg[/img] [img]http://img693.imageshack.us/img693/2552/dscf0022x.jpg[/img] Thanks for reading!

If you keep it stropped- you will never have to profile. I strop it on a leather strop with the geen- and i also use the diamond spary on wood. I finish with plain leather. The knife is absolutely scary sharp at all times and up to any task. Great pictures- Thanks KILLER DAWGS JYD# 61
