After a month of debating, I just purchased my first rat!

An OD RC-5 that is :D

It was either that or an RC-3mil, but I plan on earning the ability to purchase a Rat pack sometime this year. Which should fit my needs as a smaller edc blade. The 5 will hold a perm spot in my BOB when it's not with me camping this spring/summer.

Also looking to closely match the kydex sheath to my multicam bag. Probably a lighter tan/od combo. Any reccomendations on what spray to use that will hold to the kydex and stick through use? and does the rc5 also come with paracord like most other rats do?


ahhh I can't wait to get it!
 
cool you will like the 5 its a great knife.

as for the ratpack knife those arn't available anymore. only way to get one is second hand.

take it easy

Good choice and congrats, my ESEE-5 serr also has a perm spot in my bob for urban. I plan on getting a plain edge in the future for outdoor use. The 5 does come with a short length of OD 550 cord with cord lock for wrist lanyard, if you do indeed purchase the kydex version. krylon plastic spray paint IN/Outdoor use might work on the cheap.
