It has a conventional hollow grind I think with the grind like about halfway up the blade from the point to within about 6 inches of the handle sort of loike a swedge almost then just tapers off to the 3/16 inch thickness all the way to the butt end of the handle, full exposed tang.

Now that I look at it more closely, the "swedge" from where it starts at the rear to the tip is a distal taper! Wow,never noticed that before.

I do love that knife Yote. It's kinda Nessmuk style isn't it?
It is a copy of the Marbles Woodcraft knife.
It is a good skinner

what was the original price of SYKCO muk?
I'd like a reference since I'm going to have to buy one off the xchange since I didn't get in on it.

99.95 I wouldn't expect to pay under 200 for one. The lowest I have seen one go for was 225.00$

The only SYKCO knives I have handled are the three I own
DM original
YKCG
Regulator TT
I had the chance to get a used MUK for $100 on another forum, about 6 months ago but I was broke.
