I'll start with some... I know who probably has the greatest collection but he is "in the closet."

Original and a green blade.

This used to be a Muddy Ratweiler but it got stripped, cold blue and the grips slightly contoured.

6 Desert Ratweiler $178.95
8 Ratweiler Urban Shadow $198.95
9 Ratweiler Desert Shadow $198.95
11 Olive Drab Ratweiler $178.95

Urban Shadow Camo

Another Blade West entry:
Ratweiler $358.95

Both are SR-101 steel with Sheep Horn and Desert Iron Wood. The horn handles were left in their natural state on the face where they meet the blade in order to preserve as much of the horn’s character as possible. It makes the blade look as though it is growing out of the horn itself. Double Cut blade finish.

Ah ha!! Found 'em! From xaman's sale thread of several years ago. I wonder where they went. ;) Not my house, though.

i wanna muddy to go with my GREEN one :)

not a collector tho, just one who appreciates a few nice things ;)
 
Wow I've been wanting to see the ram handled weilers forever! I was beginning to thing they were a myth. Now I want one.
 
Here is my Urban Camo Weiller showing some wear.

I had it stripped and double cut!

Double cut SR101 loves the rust so Garth has it redoing the original coating. Cant wait to see it.
 
Wow- 2 out of only 8 Urban Camo RWs already posted- and ones a user! I can't find my pic, but I've got one, so that's three. I sure paid a $hitload more than $198, tho, so mine's a safe queen.

What are the chances we can get the other five owner's to post? Or does someone have more than one???
 
third knife up should be a Rat Hunter, and the one on the right a cs Dog Skinner. a lot of grails in one pic...
 
Solstice... I've said it before but that stripped/dc RW you did (do you still have it?) may be the most gorgeous blade I've ever seen.

I love that blade. Too bad it's not an original variant.

What's up with the Mojo pic in an RW thread? That's blasphemous. ;)
 
Those swedged blades are some beauties!!!!

Did Bill do those?

Yep Bill did the swedges on both, I did the strips and DC. Bill's work is as always...Out of the Freaking Park!

Thanks PM. The Diff Heat Treat really showed up nicely after I put the DC finish on. No, she's a goner. Darn shame....she was a beaut! To date, the best damn blade to come out of the Swamp....IMHO!
