I'm not sure the Busse-Kin family yet do a ' Grail Knife ' for me !
It would have to be fairly thin ( Less than 3/16" ), full height grind, no choil and have a full sized handle ( No little Dumpster Mutt handles ).
I still have my fingers crossed but it seems most Busse-Kin collectors either just chop or hoard their knives for value purposes.....Which is perfectly fine,each to their own....but us Bushcrafters still have to live in hope ! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />

Oh man lazi, that is SO similar to my grail (that I know will never be made). It is a Kuk style blade (only SLIGHT, VERY slight re curve) but straight bladed,not bent like a kuk.

SOD? Who needs it with the 711? Rat Daddy or Rat Mastiff...now THERE's a couple of blades... For me I prefer sabre grind or FFG. Convex just eludes my abilities. Im convex,dumb. Anyway the SOD would also double as my SHTF blade. That S7 is practically indestructable.
