This one doesn't interest me right now. By the time it does it will be too late. I'm waiting on a satin finished fighter. I have enough budh blades for now.

Who was the anti choil guy? My memory is [censored] nowadays. LOL, that would be me. The Mud Mutt is so close to being perfect for me as an EDC, but the choil is a pretty big turn off for me (duh). No love for full convex grinds either, that would have been nice too. At least it's good to see things headed in the right direction as far as thickness goes. This knife is about half as thick as it would have been if it came out years ago. It also has half the choil, not saying your view point on choils is wrong AFF I can take them or leave them.

No worries, grease. I believe many people feel the same way about being indifferent to choils. I just happen to have a very strong preference against them, unfortunately.
I'm thinking about having one of these modded to remove the choil, full convex regrind and full satin finish. It would probably cost at least as much as the knife is selling for though, but I guess it would be worth it to end up with a grail of sorts for me. I hate being poor, LOL.

AFF, I'm in the no choil boat with you, after I get this one, and playing with it a bit, I have a few mods in mind.

Maybe I will have a full or half length swedge ground into it as well. I'm a sucker for swedges on smaller knives....

It's too expensive to modify the knife. (EDIT - unless you do it yourself)
I'm gonna sit back and hope we get some variants at KC or Blade. Here's to praying...

Pretty neat knife. Wish I had passed on the 411 to have funds for this.

Satin is only some stripper and a belt sander away. Lol AFF, I'm in the no choil boat with you, after I get this one, and playing with it a bit, I have a few mods in mind. This. One of the reasons I bought two is so I can immediately strip and satin finish one. Might change it to a trailing point too, depending on overall geometry. Can't wait!!!
