Dirty RATZ

Going all the way back to your first post in the thread, this knife with the etching of Peru on the blade:

Was that a special edition of the RC-3? One issued directly to the Peruvian military attendees or something? I like it!

I'll admit I have a tendency to try to avoid marking up a new knife, they are so pretty! My RC-4 is just starting to show some good scuff marks from splitting some wood, but I haven't really put it to hard use yet!

The orange handled RC 4 is a class knife that I swapped the orange slabs off the Rat pack RC 3 and put on it.

Did you take a jungle class with mr. Randall? Is that the class you got the knife?

Bump!

I think Reuben and Joe Flowers are headed back with us in May to play in the jungle and buy transvestites beer in Tamshiyacu

Joe just likes the transvestites. He's useless in the jungle

Sorry, must have missed this one. The RC-3 in question was a special run and I think only 9 were made. They were given to us after completing the 2007 Jungle Survival School in Peru, hence the Peruvian map. This is a rather old picture when it wasn't so beat up. Now it looks about 15 years old and I wouldn't have it any other way! My advice to you--use your knives and give them a few birth marks. You will like them more and if you don't want to mark it up send it my way, I'll make it real purdy!

Here are two older pictures where you can see the other side!

This handle kind of has a rainbow look to it

and chip some coating off.

Rueben, I have been trying to chip the coating, but I must have a deffective RC-5, it just won't chip off...

dunno if my HEST is worn enough for this thread...but it IS used often.
I'm especially proud of the wear around the bottle opener - I'm hoping to wear that part to bare metal ASAP. lol!

don't really know why the handles are getting so dark, but I suppose it's dirt, muck, grime, oil, etc... (last weekend I used the prybar to scrape some grease and junk away from a u-joint on the jeep on a trail)

these threads are the reason I own these knives - hard use is beautiful!

 

[Mrbladedude]

Bump.
