Got it. Thanks.BLD I was in no way what so ever saying that the use of INFI makes it a better knife I am actually in the boat with you and much prefer SR101 over INFI. The thing that bothered me is over on the Swamp forum we had been talking about the now named N2K RMD for a while and tossed out the idea of having it only be for the loyal Rats like what Dan did for the guys on the Scrapyard forum. Instead of this happening it was made for the most part (wasn't half melted or FFG) and sold at Blade. As for the price I would take a 150 dollar SR101 made knife over a 300 dollar INFI version of the same knife every day of the week. If I was going to purchase one tomorrow I would still go with SR101, the only way I would pay more for an RMD (alloy only) is if DHT was an option and that's only because a good hamon gets me every time.
If you think it's so stupid to buy an INFI RMD because of size, why do you have a SCABS? And as stated earlier, this whole argument is old. I've taken your stance before as well but the more INFI you have, the more you want. As for me, I love satin INFI and can't stand how fast SR-101 rusts on me. Maybe because I live on the coast AND work on saltwater aquariums for a living. If I touch a satin SR-101 blade, you will see a rusty fingerprint overnight. And that's even with an oiled blade. I would love to own a satin INFI RMD.
AND....if we are going to argue practicality, we should all be driving a Prius :barf: Also shouldn't you buy a 511 if it's all about best bang for your buck?
Because the price was right and my wife said yes.If you think it's so stupid to buy an INFI RMD because of size, why do you have a SCABS?
Nope. 2 RMDs and a Camp Tramp are all I need.Also shouldn't you buy a 511 if it's all about best bang for your buck?

Yeah now that you have them. By your logic though you should have bought 2 x 511s.Nope. 2 RMDs and a Camp Tramp are all I need.
...Nope. 2 RMDs and a Camp Tramp are all I need.
..... I bloody well hope so.... !!!!!Well said by you two from Oz.
The want for the INFI RMD came about in a line of thinking similar to if it could be...can it be? The N2K RMD took this further...in that we bounced never-before ideas off the Swamp Waters and a wickedly cool concept was born. Will it ever happen?...who knows.
