Michigan-based customer maker Matthew Gentry has just seen his first production collaboration drop, courtesy of Boker. The Boker Plus M.U.K. delivers a compact riff on what is perhaps the most famous outdoors knife ever made.
It’s right there in the name: the M.U.K. is a new take on the Nessmuk, a fixed blade designed by George Washington Sears, who wrote under the nom de plume “Nessmuk” for Forest and Stream and became a legend amongst outdoorsmen and naturalists. Like famous traditional knife patterns, the Nessmuk knife speaks to modern makers as much as those in its own time, and it has been iterated on hundreds of times over the years. In fact, the M.U.K itself is based on Gentry’s custom Pocket Muk model.
Andersen ought to like this one. He has always had a thing for the Nessmuk, much as I do for the Canadian Belt Knife.
