Gray blade/black canvas handle for me.![]()
I went desert sage and red/black g10. With the custom shop down, and this offering more scale options than the non-custom RMD, I had to go for it. Kinda wish the blade width was exactly the same as the RMD. Heck, I'd probably be satisfied with just a RMD with more scale options. But this will scratch a couple of itches, and I might still get another RMD. It's that good.
Sorry, I guess I talked more about the RMD than the JMD.![]()
JMD handle bigger then?No - the JMD is a 6" blade vs 5.25" for RMD. The JMD blade is also a (barely) shorter height at 1.25" vs 1.35" for the RMD. The handle is the same, as is the blade thickness
I've found the RMD profile to be a great all around knife. Bigger, smaller, fat, skinny I don't care I will take one of all of them. The Infidu is awesome, if there was an Infi Mountainmandu I might just die happy on the spot.

Mine's a custom![]()
That is because you had modifications done- if you order the Rodent 6 off the website with Black finish and canvas handles it is not a modification-if you order it with G10 handles, different color blade, grind etc, it is a custom
You can get G10 handles on the JMD while the RMD is micarta only.
You mean, like this?

They've got one for the different blade finishes, as well.
