Scrap Yard Knife Company Mud Mutt

The new Mud Mutt is a unique offering for Scrap Yard Knife Company in that it is made from .140″ thick SR101 steel. Typically, their knives are thicker in fitting with their reputation for standing up to hard use. This is the thinnest SR101 steel that Scrap Yard Knife Works has worked with to date and it should make for a very aggressive cutter. In spite of the thinner stock, SR101 has a great reputation for toughness and I have no doubt this knife will take abuse.

The Mud Mutt features 5″ long, black coated blade. The drop point blade profile has a very subtle drop at the spine and plenty of belly. The Mud Mutt utilizes the “Mudder” grip pattern which fills the hand nicely and provides a ton of grip.

The Mud Mutt is also unique in that it is being offered with an optional sheath (most Scrap Yard Knife Company knives do not come with sheaths). The Mud Mutt has an introductory price of $99.95 (until 12/31/13) and the leather sheath can be added for $20 more.

Scrap Yard Scrapivore LE Now Available

I always look forward to seeing the latest offering from Scrap Yard Knives. Scrapyard has a reputation for offering extremely tough knives at a very reasonable price and the Scrapivore LE looks like it will live up to that reputation.

The Scrapivore looks to be very similar to one of my favorite knives, the ESEE Izula, but it has a very unique feature that sets it apart from similar knives on the market. The end of the handle features a tapered pry tip. Many people use the knife blade for prying but this can damage the knife. By providing a purpose built pry tip, the Scrapivore provides a useful prying tool without risking damage to the blade.

The LE version of the Scrapivore is currently available. Scrap Yard’s LE designation indicates a satin finish which takes more hand finishing. There will be a less expensive CG (combat grade) version available soon which will be coated and made from slightly thicker steel stock. The Scrapivore LE is also slightly harder at 62-65 Rc than the CG version will be at 58-60 Rc.

Stats:

  • Overall – 6.5″
  • Blade – 2.75″
  • Thickness – .125″ (1/8″)
  • Steel – SR-101
  • Hardness – 62-65 Rc
  • Price – $69.95

You can visit the Scrap Yard Knives webstore for more information and to purchase your own Scrapivore LE.

Scrap Yard Knife Works – Regulator and Deregulator Available

Scrap Yard Knife Works (SYKW) offers very affordable hard use knives in limited runs. They post knife for only a few weeks and then it may not be available again for years. They typically only list a handful of designs every year so some people wait religiously for their knives to be posted.

The Regulator and Deregulator are the most recent designs and they are available now. Get them at the SYKW store.

I am going to pass on this one but the price is tough to beat for a knife of this size, durability, and warranty.
