The main goal of the Andyrchy-BUST experiment is to study the primary cosmic rays spectrum and composition around the knee. The experimental data on the knee, as observed in the electromagnetic and high energy muon components, are presented. The electromagnetic component in our experiment is measured using the "Andyrchy" EAS array. High energy muon component (with 230 GeV threshold energy of muons) is measured using the Baksan Underground Scintillation Telescope (BUST). The location of the "Andyrchy" right above the BUST gives us a possibility for simultaneous measurements of both EAS components.
