Info regarding our name and trademarks

[R.A.T.]

After reading another post here I decided to make a new thread. ESEE Knives no longer uses the name RAT, RC, RTAK or TAK as any trademark for our knife line. Our knives are still designed by our company Randall’s Adventure & Training and manufactured by Rowen, but not called anything other than ESEE knives (pronounced S E). We have requested that all of our dealers also remove any reference to RAT Cutlery or RAT from their web sites since we no longer use these names on our knife line. Currently our trademarks include the name ESEE, Junglas, Izula, Izula-II. We also use the HEST and DPx marks that are owned by Robert Young Pelton.

Here's an explanation that is on our web sites:

Randall's Adventure and Training® manufactured (and continues to fully guarantee) R.A.T. Cutlery knives (RC-3, RC-4, RC-5, RC-6) built from 2007 until 2010. We have changed the name of our company to ESEE Knives. The only thing that has changed is the name. We now market our knives under the ESEE, Izula®, Junglas® and DPX Gear brand names. Randall's Adventure and Training® does not manufacture or warranty RAT knives built by Ontario Knife Company (RAT-3, RAT-5, RAT-7, RTAK, TAK and Model 1 Folder). These knives are manufactured by Ontario Knife Company even though they were designed by Randall's Adventure and Training®.

Are you going to change your forum name to reflect the change? (Just curious.)

Joe, the forum name is, ESEE Knives. [It was changed completely a day or so ago.]

Thanks Jeff for restating the info in a separate post. :thumbup:
Ya' might want to make it a "sticky" for a while, just a thought.

Y'all keep up the good work & great knives. :thumbup:

Thanks........

He probably meant Jeff's handle.

ETA: Ah, yes Teacher, the name of the forum did have the "formerly RAT" note.

 

[teacher]

He probably meant Jeff's handle.

OOPS, he probably did.

My Bad 'Joe'..... I'm an idiot, what more need be said.

 

[HikingMano]

No, I was wrong. He probably did mean the forum name. Jeff is "Randall's Adventure and Training" first and foremost anyway, probably wouldn't make sense for him to change his handle....

 

[texastonydobbs]

Jeff mention that his BF Name would not change due to the Training side of the Business

 

[Joe Fowler]

I was talking about his individual user name... but Tony answered my question.

Thanks all!

Ahhh, a rose by any other name, still draws blood when you grab the thorns. Thanks. Moose

and what about the RAT PACK?

They are now known as the ESEE Pack! Jeez, try to keep up!

 

[TAGannon]

Okay. I'll make any changes to the wrong names show up nowhere.
