Hi Bob,

We don't have anything nailed down yet. Still collecting input from discussion.

Hello! I'd be in for sure if something "outdoorsy" in Magna-max/cut, or Spy27. I wouldn't object to the same Mule handles but larger/different I would still be in. I'm thinking that if folks can source handle-scales from Sppyderco, not to mention a sheath, it could make it seem more approachable/accessable to more potential buyers, depending on how many end up being made...I'm not myself a kydex or scale-wizard and it's a plus for me if those extra items are readily available at time of purchase. Either way I'll keep an eye. Thank-you!

In my opinion, a six inch knife would do best as a camping style knife or a kitchen style knife. I’d be in for a camping style knife… not so much for a kitchen style.

T3K: agree on camping style, and there's a separate thread going strong to flesh out the longer kitchen mule.

I’d be in for a hunting, bushcraft, hiking or camp knife style mule or just extend and thicken the current mule shape…. A thicker 6 inch mule would allow more freedom in changing the grind type on the mule.

Did somebody say 6" Magnamax Mule!?!

Yes please!! 👍

Not a kitchen knife thought. I like the original mule design. More for general purpose/outdoors use. My Magnacut mule has become my dedicated fishing/camp knife. A 6" version would be perfect!!

I'd be on on larger version. Especially if it's tailored to the steel, tougher steels for large models.
1/2 more handle on large version would be ok.

tougher steels for a 6" XL mule sounds good.
