Hi all, today 3 of my knives comparison. They are IMO all in the category “bushcrafter”: all-purpose tools, not swords, straight oriented to the job. From the top: J. Breeden Pathfinder, Scrap Yard MUK, N. Panciera Coguaro ![[Linked Image from img828.imageshack.us]](http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/5764/dscf0001.jpg) Specs: J. Breeden Pathfinder Length OAL 240 mm Blade length 115 mm Blade thickness 3 mm Blade Steel O1 SY MUK Length OAL 235 mm Blade length 110 mm Blade thickness 4 mm Blade Steel 154CM N. Panciera Coguaro Length OAL 230 mm Blade length 100 mm Blade thickness 5 mm Blade Steel C70 ![[Linked Image from img339.imageshack.us]](http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/3669/dscf0002xe.jpg) ![[Linked Image from img267.imageshack.us]](http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/4294/dscf0003pv.jpg) ![[Linked Image from img295.imageshack.us]](http://img295.imageshack.us/img295/7710/dscf0004y.jpg) Lets’ start with some fuzz-sticking… ![[Linked Image from img256.imageshack.us]](http://img256.imageshack.us/img256/1669/dscf0005gb.jpg) ![[Linked Image from img571.imageshack.us]](http://img571.imageshack.us/img571/6254/dscf0006v.jpg) Some carving… ![[Linked Image from img821.imageshack.us]](http://img821.imageshack.us/img821/4104/dscf0007z.jpg) ![[Linked Image from img17.imageshack.us]](http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/2435/dscf0008wk.jpg) ![[Linked Image from img293.imageshack.us]](http://img293.imageshack.us/img293/7339/dscf0009f.jpg) Some pointing… [img]http://img831.imageshack.us/img831/184/dscf0011.jpg[/img][img]http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/6217/dscf0012rk.jpg[/img]Handling… [img]http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/5531/dscf0014xp.jpg[/img][img]http://img682.imageshack.us/img682/1547/dscf0015p.jpg[/img][img]http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/3121/dscf0016jg.jpg[/img]Conclusions: All these 3 knives are fine tools for bushcraft activities. Comfy on the hand, they are all my cup of tea on the bush. I prefere the MUK above the two others, but just for a bit, ‘cause he bite the woods a bit more than the others, but it’s just my feeling. Ciao, Alfredo

Nice review Alfredo!!! I sure do love the sexy lines of the Muk, and it's pretty tough to beat the Mudder grip for comfort and versatility. Thanks for posting.

Looks like the Muk didn't want to content itself with a small bite of the wood. Awesome comparison, thanks!

I ask my self why didn't I get a Scrap-Muk? Me too! The length before actual cutting edge kinda bugs me. But I've got the tools to make a nice big finger groove there.

Just because you're right doesn't mean I'm wrong.
