For the Doug Ritter Ultimate Aviator Survival Pak™, this was an easy choice. I designed the new Doug Ritter RSK MkIII fixed blade knife expressly as a survival/utility knife, incorporating all the features I believe necessary in a knife you can bet your life on™. The full-tang 4.5-inch wide-chord drop point blade is made of CPM S30V high carbon stainless steel (click here for more information on this extraordinary knife steel). It has a high grind for excellent slicing while the full-thickness spine provides the strength needed in such a knife. The textured G-10 aviation grade composite ergonomic handles along with a half guard and thumb ramp ensure a secure grip no matter how bad the conditions. The exposed tang allows you to hammer on the butt without harming the handles. A wrist lanyard with cord lock provides added security when needed. The ballistic nylon sheath with molded insert is fully ambidextrous. Normal retail for this extraordinary knife is $185. (Click here for more information on the Doug Ritter RSK MkIII Please note that the knife and sheath show in the photo are prototypes and the production RSK MkIII and sheath will differ slightly in some details.)

Should I post and gloat a bit when I get it, or let you wait patiently in peace?
