The long belly works great for slicing, but the thickened spine behind the drop of the point creates great control for piercing silver skin/fat caps/plastic wrapping on food packaging. It, to me, acts as a great combination of a chef's knife and a santoku in the kitchen; or a great combination of a clip point and a sheepsfoot blade in pocket knife terms.
I've owned a Minimuk, Stubbymuk, and a Neckmuk. The Minimuk is a great companion in the kitchen, and the Neckmuk is really fun to pocket carry. I sold the Stubbymuk as I preferred the size of the Neckmuk for carry and Minimuk for kitchen. I haven't had the opportunity to try the full size Nessmuk, but I would think the extra length would make it even more handy in the kitchen. If it's 5/32" it may be a little thick for kitchen work, though. It might tend to wedge in things like potatoes/gords.
I'm excited to hear your thoughts once you get to use your Nessmuk!
