Just got my first RAT, an RC4. I like how it feels. I got it with the molle back and I'm wondering about the best way to turn it into a drop leg sheath. Would I have to go get some nylon strap and thread it through the Drop-Leg Extendor or is there some way to do it with just the sheath?

Congrats on the RC4 purchase. to use the drop leg extender you'll need to provide some straps
Thanks. I had figured that that was the only way to go but I was still hoping for a way to get out of trying to find webbing in the size I want. Oh well the sheath will definitely be mine when I'm done.
The more I handle it the more I like it. The handle seemed shorter than I thought it would be at first but I now realize it's just at the right size for my hands. It's my first knife with micarta and it may be a new favorite handle material of mine. It's one thing to read how thick a blade spine will be it's another to see it. That is one tough looking blade.

Already? I have been drooling over RATs for a while now, but unfortunately mine will have to go solo for a while. I picked the 4 since the general consensus seems to be that it's one of the best "all around" blades available, so I'm sure it will be able to handle things until friends can come.
