Yep, I got the "ding" last week!

Congrats to those that ordered. I never think to check to other kin sites <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> I'll need to start checking regularly to stay up to date on new releases.

Can't wait!

was this available on the busse website?

Nope, it was a ganza style sale, starting at the Cupidganza and running for 10 days, maybe 14. You sent an email to Amy during that time with your order

One of the first short ordering windows they've done recently

I have one coming too! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Correct me if I'm wrong, the ganza is post on their forum or on the blade forum?

tell us more about the Cupidganza, I'm very interested.

Just got an email form Lexi saying mine is shipping today. Then the head-to-head with the Scrap Muk!

I want my email. I was within the first 2 minutes so there can only be a hundred or so ahead of me <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

My card got dinged the 16th. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> No. 172 on its way soon.

Got my shipping notice today <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
Congrats to all who scored <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Time to start stalking the mail man! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Shipping notice today allso..Muk Muk Muk Muk.....

I talked to Lexi yesterday. I will have to wait a bit longer to get payment there due to some doctor bills---ughh. Life is not fair, but I will have my MUK "soon" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Jeff,
What kind of pants do you have planned? Kydex or leather?

What? When? How did I miss the Busse Muks? Where were they offered? I guess Ill be paying the premium BF price. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Mine shipped Tuesday afternoon --- Hot Dog!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Yep, talked to Lexi yesterday and I'll probably get mine by the end of next week.

Sooooo....for all those that are getting a Busse muk, I guess you won't be needing those Scrap Yard ones now, right? I am happy to help relieve you of that extra piece of steel that's just going to get underfoot now <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

The only reason I ordered the Busse Muk is because I don't have a scrap yard muk. If they were released again I'd gladly buy 3 and sell the Busse for a profit.

I missed the Postman. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> Will have to wait until tomorrow to pick it up at the P.O. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

on the bright side, Friday is a great day to get a new knife! Lots of w/e play time!

Nice! Let's see the pics!

When you pick it up, of course <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Pumpkin Muk #18 was waiting for me when I got home from work tonight. Wow is this thing sharp, I think the sharpest I have recieved from any Busse brand yet. It's a little bigger than I thought but feels real good in the hand.

Got mine today too. Quite a bit different than the ScrapMuk, or at least more so than I thought by comparing specs/pic. IF I had to choose one, I would go with the ScrapMuk as there is no comparison (for me) when it comes to the "in hand" feel of the two knives. That being said, I look forward to this years hunting season to give it a workout and see how the edge holding stands up that that of the ScrapMuk (which completely blew my mind last fall on my buck).

I will say that the Busse Muk is the prettier of the two, and it seems to have a much "deeper" belly while that of the SM's is "longer" (not sure if that makes any sense at all). Also, without actually using it to be sure, I would say that from the looks/in hand, the "choil" of the BM is more likely to get hung up on a hide than the "un-choil" of the SM...a BIG +1 for the SM for the way I use a knife like this.

Although it certainly doesn't feel this way, the BM puts my fingers much closer to the cutting edge than the SM. all in all, I am glad I got one...now to figure out what I need to sell to be able to keep it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Well, damon, since you clearly don't like that Busse Muk, I'll be happy to take it off your hands <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Not sure how to take those first two statements <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

As for the last on, clearly you need to sell me your Swamp Muk to keep the busse <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Muks <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Ok, I see what you are doing----I am keeping mine <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Very nice. I will pay mine off next week, then hopefully have it the next week. Welke, nice pants!

haha, not sure where you got the "clearly don't like it part." Maybe just not quite as much as the scrap yard one, but it is still a nice knife. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

S1: The thing that I LOVE about the ScrapMuk is the very gradual unsharpened area between the handle and the edge. When I first processed an animal w/ my GenII Howling Rat, I kept getting the choil hung up on the animal's hide. Given the more distinct transition from edge to "choil" of the BM I can see such happening with this blade much easier than w/ the yard's offering. But again, this is speculation as I have yet to actually use it...I hope I am wrong <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/paperbag.gif" alt="" />

S2: When I grab the two knifes naturally (where the handle "puts" my hand), I am much farther back on the SM than the BM. However, and I don't yet know why this is, I feel much more control over the edge w/ the Scrap Muk even though my hand is farther away from it (this is counter-intuitive to me...all I can think of at this point is maybe just he design of the ScrapMuk feel like a custom-to-my-hands blade and the BM just feels like a nice knife). However, the "lines" of the BM are the hands-down winner in the looks department to me...go figure <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

also, the BM's point is, well, pointier...which I like.

Clearly, you don't have young kids and/or your mind is not in the toilet <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

There's no BM like a pointy BM <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

First statement reminds me of a joke I heard in Scout Camp:

The bear turns to the rabbit and asks: Do you have trouble with (ahem) BMs sticking to your fur?

The rabbit answers : No.

So the bear picks him up and uses him to wipe his....well, let's just keep this family friendly.

Sorry, it's the drugs talking <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

And those ARE some nice pants you've got to hold your BMs in Al!

(I'm killing myself! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Seriously though, nice set up)

hahaha! Ok, that's funny. When I was writing BM I was thinking he same thing, but figured I was being too juvenile. Thanks for keeping me young! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

No my friend, no thought is too juvenile for th Yard <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

That's the same the VOICES tell me! Eat more fruit! Prunes, the will help you the BM work out for ya! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Geesh! Sometimes I just can't belive you!

Shut up! I'm just saying what YOU want to say.

YOU shut up, here's another fruit rollup.

Well I'm gunna be stalking the mail man today, looks like mine should be here this afternoon! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />

I can't wait to compare it to my SYKCO Muk! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

So....the mail man is coming to help you with your BM?

(I need to stay off the forums when I'm floating on meds <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />)

Rainwalker, you won't want to keep the SYKCO muk once you've tasted the BM. You might as well PM me now so we can work out the transfer details <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Can't blame a dog for trying. Begging is in our nature <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Busse Anorexic Muk #145 has arrived in S/W Missouri!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Pics of this VERY sharp sweet beauty will appear a little later. Oh yeah'!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Finally got shipping notice today. That means it won't be here before tomorrow's apocalypse.

Time to strap on the AR15 and Scrapizashi. Must make it to Monday for the MUK!!

My MUK left a USPS depot in Michigan @ 10:27pm last night. It looks like next week for me! Full of Bussekin disappointment this week <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />

We're all feeling the bussekin disappointment Ish!

I just found this thread. I´m sorry allready. I think I´m goin to cry. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />

t1m0 -- You can probably find a MUK at the Busse exchange on their Bladeforums site. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

how about more pictures, they sure look to be a nice blade.

It is! I love mine

Got some proto leather pants made, hopefully I'll find a little time to get out and play with mine this weekend! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Awesome pic of that #1, Jared! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Thanks Jeff! Love those pants!
