So Whats Next From SYKC. Or Your Wish List?

With the S5 now off the SYKC buy list & the Regulator with it's 7.5" blade coming soon. What will be the next bone on offer?

I'm thinking we need something smaller in the 2.5-3.5" range. Come to think of it. A 3.5" blade(CG), S6(clip point lines), SR-77 &/or SR101 & Res C handle(DM size).
So a S3 OMUMMA <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

hmm...i honestly can't think of anything.

does that mean i'm cured?

Folder.

Or, the Scrap Yard FBM, the "War Bit<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/footinmouth.gif" alt="" />h"!

ha ha ha no sir it means you need to pour another whiskey & take it from there <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

i was thinkin that but it's not really a "wish" knife. more of a "might be nice" knife.

how bout a flat ground 7" stainless bowie of 1/8" stock?

A cutlass, called the Sea Dog.

Perhaps something along the lines of the knife used in the first Predator film.
It probably wouldn't be of interest to current military personell but it would be one heck of a chopper. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Maybe I'm reading wrong, but did you say 3.5 inch blade in SR77???

I'll pass.

I wasn't sold on the SY use of 154CM, but now that I've got a couple of Yard knives in that steel, I'm a believer. No way I would want jackhammer steel in my EDC sized blades.

And for my vote... SCRAP BOLO!!! Thin, SR-77 or differentially treated SR-101, res-c handle, at least 15 inches long. Yeah, I'd buy that.

OK maybe 4"'s <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Dogfather CG Tanker Grey

I'll take three. arggg

Realistic: DF, something along the lines of a Vex size EDC fixed blade, or the S5 LE in Infi.

Wish: Folder, bolo, cutlass, Vex sized with Res-C, and tomahawk.

one piece SR77 or SR101 or INFI steel CRASH AXE with Res - C grips, shaped similar to the Shrike!

Well.... I think a Scrap Yard Golok would be nice. SR77 res-c handle yep... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I've yet to recieve my first SYKCO. Besides the S5 and the Regulator, I'd like to see a big chopper like the WW2 Smashet??(?) Wish I could find a real one.

A S5 LE in Infi <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />, a SY version of a FBM, the Regulator Bowie, and probably something smaller like a 4" 154CM piece. I would love to see a folder but I doubt that will happen. A SY camp ax in Sr77 or 101 would be cool too. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

a scrapyard slipjoint



am i weird?

i hope a CG DF man i want one soooo bad but with them selling for around 300 dollars on the BF ill wait

Am I weird for not wanting a folder at all?

Spyderco makes all the folder I could ever need. And theirs are consistently razor sharp from the factory, something I can't say about Busse family blades <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I'm ready for something or something really small <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />. After the INFI S5 that is. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Smatchet?

Something like this?
http://www.elinemerchandising.com/media/boker/B-A-F578S-lg.jpg

I saw an Australian DOD issue one of these at one the the high end collectors shops in the city here many years ago.
Problem was it was something like 3 or 4 weeks wages back then, and I was only 18-19 so that was a big whack of cash.
How I wish I had bought that blade now...

ive got spyderco,swamp rat rat trap,SOG,BUCK, chris english auto knife,victorinox......etc..

its weird..with all the knives i have made from hi-tech,fancy,un-obtanium super steels..the one i always finds it's way into my front pocket is a CASE XX.


i must be getting nostalgic in my old age

Something to wear around our neck would be nice!!

Nah, old age is called retro now. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

COOL

ill be 33 this year
<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Vance, I am older than you by a little bit and we are far from being "retro" even though we feel like it a lot of the time LOL

OOOH OOOH what blade is that?

I have lots of folders as well, I want a monster....a re release of the DF, or a big Bolo is what I want!

Bushman5 that one was made by Jeremy Horton. I would love to have a scrapyard necker maybe in a variety of colors!!!

I think everyone knows I am pulling for a CG DF, but I would be happy with anything in the 10" blade or longer area. I like the idea of producing something in the FBM class. Maybe with the thicker SR101 on the Regulator they might be building up raw stock for something along the lines of the FFBM, which would certainly trump my DF desire.

I give an emphatic +1 to this. I don't think that Bussekin would want to compete in the folder space. They have staked out their territory, and should guard it jealously, imho.

33 isn't old at all.

I'd like a thin SY machete.

But on a serious note I wanted a RAT3 and I got one!

How about a war hammer, or a big ol' Thor sledge made of SR77.

If we're fantasizing.

Dude, a war hammer would ROCK!

i've been fantasizing about an sr77 beanie helmet/cereal bowl for a couple years now. seriously, you can search my posts. i'd like it with a matching spoon. a big one. almost ladle sized.

Now we're talkin'!

I have enough knives, let's get some good quality built-to-last breakfast-ware!

Will it have Rainwalker pants? The spoon. Felt the need to clarify.

this!


or a EDC along the size of a game warden/active duty.

CRASH AXE! CRASH AXE! CRASH AXE! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

+1! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />

Well after my S5 comes I would love to see a small necker blade, no handel just a little peice of steel (SR-77 for cost reasons)that is totaly EDC-able by any one reguardless of dress.

REGULATOR REGULATOR REGULATOR!!!

I must have two dozen belt knives in a drawer that I never use. What I would like is a golok. I will use that. A set of 154CM kitchen cultlery with mudder handles would be useful, too.

A re-release of S-6 and Dogfather.

The Scrapyard version of the ak would be pretty sweet too.

SR101 Scandi grind bushcrafter !!!

I like the idea of the kitchen cutlery <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />. I have enough choppers and can only chop so much. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> Maybe a crash axe is a good idea too. Will see what Dan comes up with <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Kitchen knives would be pretty cool - I already use my bird dog le quite a lot in the kitchen. A scrap yard santoku or cleaver would be pretty awesome.

+1 for kitchen knives <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I say the Regulator Bowie should be next! That extra thick SR101 with what looks like a full height flat grind would be great!

Something in the 3.5 to 4 inch range would be good, too!

+1 for a sword or something biiiig!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I'm really anxious to get my hands on a Regulator Bowie! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I love Bowies! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
It's hard to say what I would like to see next - Dan keeps pleasantly surprising me. I wasn't looking for another 5" blade, but one look at the S5 and I HAD to get some! So my answer is - whatever comes next! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

all sorts of little pry bars, bottle openers, woodads widgets whatszits, ATWOOD style, but from all the SR101, INFI, and SR77 steel scraps!

bushy, that new avatar is terrifying. i actually just killed a fly in my eyelid saturday morning. it stayed there about an hour before i could get it out.

I too like the idea of kitchen knives of some type.

i would still like a SY warden and crash axe. or a version of the ruck or ak.

another run of DF's would be great. I happen have mine out yesterday and was reminded all over how awesome that blade is.

How about a crash type thing but without the pick end on the opposite side, just left as a flat tradional axe head so that we can batton it through wood if it should get stuck !!!

I'm hoping for a scrapper sword or the kitchen knives sound appealing also.

FOLDER

The only ones I'm looking forward to is an S5LE in INFI and SY sword in SR77. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />

The Grand Father 11"-12" blade super chopper.

Nah, you just have to think about it a little more! Kinda like me with guns right now, none really speaking to me but I still like looking and messing with them.

I'd like to see another Street Scrapper 4 style knife, something small enough for every day carry. Much like the Swamp Rat Rattail I saw on here earlier tonight.

I like the necker in CM154 idea. However, I'd prefer a thin (1/8") layer of res. C on the handle to a skeleton snife. Make it 3" blade and 3.5" handle. That would be nice.

I'd also second the golok with Res-C handle similar to the SOD. Make the golok blade 13" long x 1/4" and convex ground. Yeah, I'm digging that.

I say a Tanto SoD , AP tip , INFI, .250 , respirene mudders.....Baaddd to the Boneee.

from Pitman
A ScrapYard Axe would be fantastic!!

from MustardMan
I missed out on the BDLE, and would really like to pick one up one day.
Perhaps the Yard could do a re-release of the BDLE.

from Bors
Yeah!!!!

from Sumo

from jbomb

Any of these would make it to my "must have" list.
The BDLE would be at the top, with the Golok being second
Or maybe the Golok being at the top and the BDLE second.

Of course, everyone is doing Goloks these days, so it might be more
unique for Dan to do up a Cutlass instead of a Golok.

Now that would be COOL, and would be a MUST HAVE for me!

Nice ! That would be a bad mambojamba!!

+1

Someone in a forum (might have been blade forums) said that the reason the 'kin don't do (more) folders is because folders are inherently less strong (and perhaps bl, and that is a problem with the 'kin warranty - too many returns with a folder.

Personally I'd be happy to lose the full 'kin warranty and exchange it for a lesser warranty at Dan's discretion, if that's what it took to get a folder.

OK, here's a crazy idea...

How about a Scrap Yard ULU???

Most of the commercially available ones out there are cheap tourist crap made from 420J2 or some other garbage stainless. A 154CM ulu with the SY heat treat and non-slip res-c handles would be a mean kitchen/skinning tool.

After more thought on this, I would like to see (from SY):
A camp axe - for hiking/backpacking/camping - so small enough to carry along.
A machete - around 18-22 inches
A folder - 154CM or infi (maybe 101)
More BD and MUK-like knives in different sizes, etc. (Utility)


That's it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Sword, sword, sword, sword, sword, sword! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />

I would but so many of these I really need a neck knife.

I also really like this idea, this and the Sea Dog.

I'll try to put some order to things I'd like;
1 Dogfather/FBM-class blade
2 Axe
3 Machete/Waki-size blade

After thinking about it a mace would be my favorite option.

The one thing I do NOT want to see, at least any time soon (broke and already in trouble for my Waki and S5 orders...), is a Scrapyard version of a tomahawk. Something along the lines of a K5 Tactical shaped head but with a longer and less flat/more useful hammer pole. Res-C would be great for this application.

i agree! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> this would be a great way for Dan to make use of some of the smaller peices of steel that arent getting used. you can take some random SR77 bits and make small prybars, picks, etc, and run them under a kinda SY Special Items Offering or something and i think that would be very cool.

I am awaiting the bowie as well. I think it would be a great addition to the SY line. I would like to see something small and thick, maybe a little smaller than the DMCG. something that i can have thats even smaller that the DMCG and that I can dig with, chop wood with to make presentation ezels in the field for cadets/soldiers, etc. just a thick piece of SR77 that can be bashed and beaten around... o wait, i have a DMCG!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> haha


seriously though, id like to see a SY karambit. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I would also love to see an IZULA size/style knife in SR101 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

I would really like a small knife I get funny looks when I pull out my SOD. A small knife would not be so bad.

Immagine....DF series with all the options of the scrapper5.....OH AH...Brown on Brown mudders...with a RW sheath.

How's 'bout the "Akita" a SYKCO Katana?

Then a Busse Tanto?

So you could then have, Katana (SYKCO), Wazikishi(SRKW), Tanto (Busse Combat).
Surely that would have to rock?

A sort of matched (by function) blade set from each of the Bussekin family members.

Sort of works on pricing matching too, largest blade made by the more economical family members, smaller by the more expensive family member and medium by the medium cost family member.

If offered with the same finishes (and possibly a special common logo) over all the family would make an awesome addition for collectors and I have no doubt the blades would of course stand alone or with their siblings as users.

Busse has already done a series of blades in a similar style to the waki - check out the AK, AK-47, and Ruck. Borrowing a pic from a Bladeforums thread....

Yeah but no Tanto knife style as far as I know - and no Katana sized blade either - I thought the AKs and Rucks were pretty much Waki sized within an inch or two.

There is the Dragons Fang, it´s long and sexy <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Maybe its a custom but it´s still nice and I want one <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I'll have a Titanium ScrapYard DM Dive knife please....oh with Mudders...oh in Navy Blue.....WITH a [censored] sheath.

I stand corrected.
Didn't know about that one, but you (and Google) have taught me just a little bit more Busse lore.

Tnx

No problem buddy <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I like the sound of a Golok, and would certainly pick one up if offered, but REALLY like the sound of the Ulu. I bought one in Alaska about a year ago and use it quite a bit in the kitchen for chopping herbs. With a Res-C handle....I'd be all over one if SYKCO made it

Now that's what I want to hear - the Scrap Muk was such an unusual design, and got such rave reviews, that a Scrap Ulu is a natural blade to follow it. Bring on the ULU!!

i still want a necker and a sword (khukuri would be awesome too).

- a full sized RES-C handle, with a STUBBY wharncliffe blade!

- as i mentioned before - take all the scraps and make beer openers, mini pry bars, mini keychain blades, etc etc etc

- a folder, called the DogBone. 1/8" thick SR77 sides slabbed with Res C, with a liner lock, 1/4" blade in three styles (wharnie, bullnose, and recurve), 1/2" thick pivot bolt, and allen bolts to secure it all together.

- nuther round of challange coins, cut from 1/4" SR77, or SR101, deeply stamped with a number and SY logo, and a hollow riveted hole for a neck lanyard. Tumbled and then coated.

- a necker, 1/4" with THIN RES-C grips, total length about 7" with a 3" blade, again,in wharnie, bullnose and recurve, with a thumb ramp. Butt of knife MUST have a beer opener

- <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" />

BRING IT <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

What is that suppose to be a rendition of that looks like a pig sticker of sorts

- a folder, called the DogBone. 1/8" thick SR77 sides slabbed with Res C, with a liner lock, 1/4" blade in three styles (wharnie, bullnose, and recurve), 1/2" thick pivot bolt, and allen bolts to secure it all together.


I would rather see a thin mudder grip style handle

Also the Dogbone name is great or the SY Flea

Have I mentioned that I want a sword yet? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

+1 on my own idea...lol
Dan you listening

I still think a 2" neck knife would be awesome.

+1 for a small knife 3" blade, 4" handle, very thin Res-C grip on handle.
A fixed blade pocket knife (don't like things around my neck, personally).

Very useful.

Then a machete.
