doug Ritter rsk

[mymoneypit]

Hey everyone,
Im looking to add to my edc collection and came across the doug ritter mini grip. I was wondering if it's worth it to spend the money and get the ritter model, of if i should just stick to the original benchmade. Also what are your guys opinions of the m390 blade steel?

The Ritter is a vast improvement over the standard grip. Don't get me wrong, the grip is an amazing knife, but the Ritter grip is a little more refined as far as blade shape goes.

With that bein said, you could pick up a standard mini-grip for a lot less and be completely happy and satisfied.

IMO, it's worth it. I much prefer the blade of the RSK Mk1 (558) over the standard Mini Grip (556) both for its M390 steel and the design of the blade.

BTW, you'll probably get a better response in the Benchmade subforum - http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/forumdisplay.php/893-Benchmade-Knife-Company

IMO yes it is. I have 2 of the full sized Ritters and they are awesome. The grind and blade shape us excellent.

Definitely avoid the smaller one, IMO. My little tiny hands are too big for the mini grip handle. Aside from that like somebody already mentioned, even the regular grip (145cm) is a great knife.
