So, you bought a Mule Team? Congrats! Are you looking for a little inspiration to personalize it? Are you interested in testing the steel and comparing it against another? Or have you already personalized and tested multiple Mules, and you want to share...
Hey friends, I’ve finally decided to buy my first mule and need some help choosing steel. It will be for general house/yard work type edc and maybe car camping. I’m trying to decide between AEB-L, SPY27, and the VG XEOS when it drops.
Ok. Long title. But, I do not wish to feel alone in this. I would like to think there are others out there like me who stumbled upon the Mule Team, caught the fever, bought the Mules and then started talking crap.
First, for everyone saying both, nice thought but not an option right now.
The descriptions read on Spyderco's web pages don't really help me differentiate between them. Rex T15 seems to be an older steel and K294 appears to be a brand formulation.
I touched up the edge to hair shaving sharp and then used my AEB-L Mule to cut up circa 2Kg of top round steaks into jerky meat. At the end, the edge was still shaving sharp and there was no discoloration on the blade. This one will probably go with me on...
Whilst we're fresh from Reveal 15's introduction of Takefu's VG XEOS, I've learned of another new addition to their line-up that they're calling SPG STRIX. STRIX stems from the words ST RONG MAT RIX .
For anyone who's used one, how do you like the mule team leather sheath? As the upcoming HIC mule will not fit the standard Boltaron sheath, I was considering purchasing one of the leather ones rather than the HIC mule-specific Boltaron model, my thought...
Is your Mule Sense tingling for the T15 mule? Have any of you experienced T15 in another blade? What do we know about T15...the good, bad & ugly? Spyderco says it's an end mill steel, so that means I need one. Maybe I can chuck it in my mill and use it to...
I wanted to share a recent project that I’ve been working on with my most recent Mule purchase. This is the second Mule for me, and I realized that even though I love the concept behind the Mule Team I don’t ever carry fixed blade knives. Since I carry a...
Hey guys. I just recently looked into the Mule Team. I really like the idea of designing my own knife. I really would have liked to start off with the M4 and S90V models but from my understanding the are discontinued. If you know how to get one for not to...
Looking for a little guidance on how to handle rust underneath scales.
Located in warm coastal area with higher humidity (five miles inland) and they are stored in climate controlled area. Mules are used in kitchen work, box cutting, woodwork, camping,...
We've contacted everyone on our Bug List, and the remaining MT40P HIC Mule Team inventory will be available at 09:00 a.m. MDT on Tuesday, 23-Apr-2024. Visit to get yours before they're completely gone!
Well, I was almost expecting this. I have had the HIC mule (alongside 2 other mules) on my desk.
Sort of sheathed between books in an on shelf bookshelf.
I've been using Mr. HIC to open mail and packages and for other light duty.
This is the first time I tried a Mule Team blade and I was so pleased with the result. I really like the blade shape & am a bit disappointed that recent offerings have rounded the back of the blade. I love my Maxamet Sage (like the newer shape), but I...
Apologies if I'm not the first to suggest it, but I recently came across a Kunwu folder with PM60 blade steel. According to my handy Knife Steel Composition phone app, PM60 is an extremely high alloy, high speed tool steel. Capable of very high red hot...
So I was setting up to sharpen a T15 mule and before I started I wanted to clean her up. It still had whatever coating(oil?) they had put on it from the factory(I didn't clean that off first) so I put barkeepers friend on it, scrubbed it down, and it has...
I posted this in the announcement thread, but I don't want it to be missed.
Hey, everyone:
We just confirmed that there will be more MT40P made available at a later date (more information to follow). Since they are hand-sharpened here, it's a...
The Bolatron sheath I got for my Mule was pretty loose, and I heard you could put the kydex into a toaster oven to heat it up and make the fit tighter. But I didn't think about it until I had already stuck it into the hot sheath that when I heated it to...
Has it ever been considered to make a bit smaller Mule? I love the Mules and try to get one when one comes out and finances allow. I might be the only one but I find it's just a bit too large for skinning and cleaning a whitetail. I currently use a delica...
I recently acquired an M398 Mule. With the intention of making two different sets of scales for it. First blank that arrived was the Amboyna Burl. So that's where I started. I cut the blanks from the block of Burl. I don't really have the proper tools for...
