Albin...I think those pics are SOD (sons of dogfather) and a DFCG (Dogfather Combat Grade)...next to an Regulator LE. Doesn't look like any Dumpster Mutts in the pic.

Is it the same color as those blades in the upper right...tan / tan? What's the length of the blade?

Albin I think the tan/sage blades you have pictured there are not dumpster mutts but son of dogfather blades. Look at the blade length next to what is obviously a regulator LE.

In addition, notice the thumb ramp and choil shape.

If you were just showing that picture to show the color combo then you're right on, that appears to be sage/tan...but if you think one of those knives you bought is pictured in there, and you're SURE you bought a dumpster mutt, you might be mistaken.

I could be wrong here, but looking at

I don't think I am.

Isn't that a SOD in Albin's picture?

md02 - beat me to it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I think its next to a LE Reg which is 7.5" long...can't be a DM.

Psh, Ishi beat ME to it lol, because I searched for the link

The Tan knives in your picture appear to be SoDs, they were at KC (I recall priced at $119.95) in both Tanker and Tan.

Sorry if I gave you the wrong impression Ishi - I know NOTHING! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> I have not seen a tan Dumpster Mutt, only its cousin, the tan Yardkeeper.

Oooh how the speculation spirals out of control sometimes <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

Albin...pictures! pictures! pictures! purdy please <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />

Ishikawa,

Ignore the black colored knives, I *believe* this is the only pic I've seen of the Busse knives at KCR that show the two tan Scrapyard DMs. These were the only two Scrapyards that I saw at the Busse table, but I could be wrong about that.

The guy that sold it to me was pretty clear that it was a Dumpster Mutt and it's written that way on the receipt. I've asked for more pics from the Busse guys, if they post more, I'll cross post them here.

Thanks,

Al

Jim - I just noticed you're in Jeffersonville. I'm in Evansville.

For whatever reason, I really like the sage/tan offerings. I guess its because I have a lot of MultiCam gear, and they accessorize well. You know - you get bonus points for looking fashionable while hiking <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Understood...we're all talking about the tan ones in the pic. It looks like there is consensus in the Yard that those are most likely Tan/Tan SOD's, and probably not a Dumpster Mutt.

Could you take a tape measure / ruler to your knife and post the blade length? That would help clear it up pretty quickly. If it is indeed a Mutt variant...I will be very happy <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Thanks Albin!

But those aren't dumpster mutts in the picture. They're sons of dogfather. Two very different knives. You can tell by the blade length, it's right next to a regulator LE and it's about the same length...the dumpster mutt is a bit shorter than the regulator, noticeably so.

If you purchased one of those knives for the price of a dumpster mutt, you got a hell of a deal (almost half price of RETAIL, not to mention what secondary market sons of dogfather go for).
