Superb, using the Axis it opens faster than an auto.
Flat grind slicing machine.
Light in my pocket.
Why should I spend $$$ on custom grips when these are great.
This knife is simply perfect, including the blade shape which is much better than the non Ritter Grip.

If I could ask a quick question. Is it natural for the "action" of the stone wash blade in the RSK MK1 to not be as fluid as the standard mini Griptilian due to the blade finish? I just bought a Doug Ritter Mini Grip and the blade doesn't "flick", or open very smoothly. I've loosened the pivot even to the point of slight side to side blade wobble, I also lubed the pivot. No dice! Is this standard with this knife? Please help. Any feed back would be appreciated. Thank you.

In the larger spectrum, its a cheap production knife, there are bound to be variances out of the box. Some are fluid right away, others are more stiff when they leave the factory. Wouldnt worry too much about it though, they typically break in very nicely.

I've been thinking about this thread a lot today because I too have read that ritters can chip but it doesn't make sense to me because I thought s30v steel was one of the more popular steels. And also if ritters got bad reviews for chipping wouldn't there be several complaints for the pm2s being that they are made of the same steel and are thinner than ritters? Im curious since I'm trying to learn as much as I can as Im still relatively new to knives

Like others have stated, the steel is tough, and I havent had any issues.. Picked one up last year, and I love the stonewashed blade
My only gripe with any grip is the scale *feel. The material itself is strong, and virtually resistant to everything (chemicals, moisture, scratching, wear, etc. etc.), just cant stand the feel.. I suggest some custom scales, and youll be set!
