Hmmm hard. I like all my knives. smile

If I had to choose for shtf I would take a 911 easy.

My NMFBM is my favorite knife bar none.

I love the Mora Bushcraft Black and Esee 3. As far as smaller knives go.

I changed my mind this weekend after some challenges on our smallholding farm. The more I actually use knives as tools the more I learn about what makes a practical knife. Just like any other tool, one is never enough / one size does NOT fit all. This is why I asked which three.

Anyway, after having small things go wrong on Friday/Saturday/Sunday I've refined my list:

#1 Bushcrafter / Kitchen Prep / Garden Worker

STEEL: INFI
FINISH: SATIN
BLADE DIMENSIONS: 5" x Less Than 3/16
GRIND: FULL FLAT
HANDLE: G10
CHOIL: ROUNDED
PUMMEL: ROUNDED WITH HOLE

NOTE: I don't own this knife and haven't identified what models best fulfill this role. The new SOB would be close, but the Saber Grind is a deal killer.

#2 Busse NMFSH

I think this might get replaced with a Battle Mistress, but I stipulated you have to own the knife to list it. I ordered a ASHBM CG over the weekend. Its not exactly what I want, but I need the extra blade length. Time will tell if the straight handle will work or if I'll need to find a Fusion Battle Mistress.

#3 Busse Leaner Meaner

These are great little knives, and are a pleasure to EDC belt carry.

How to handle a rough weekend on your smallholding organic farm?

A couple of blonde Harlots and a beautiful Busse...

I want to like the ASHBM, but cant. I'm sure its a nice knife. I could not justify buying one anyway. Not when I own a BWM and a NMFBM.

I would like to see a lot more knives from Scrapyard with the handles like the Elmax knives and mudder handles.

The 411 without a choil would be a 4 of purchase for me...Hint, hint, nudge, nudge...Dan Busse!!!!

Rich, have you tried those Busse Drop Point Hunters? They aren't regular production, but I see them pop up on the Wall-O-INFI pics. They're less than 5", though.

And there's the SAR 5, but I think it's right around 3/16".
