I've waited a very long time, but today I ordered my first Swamp Rat.....RatManDu!

I'm very excited for this RMD to arrive (I requested either the black canvas/black blade or the tan canvas/black blade).

The pictures of this knife are awesome, but the testimonials and loyalty to this knife are what beckoned me to the Swamp....:D
 
CongRatulations!!! :D :D :D

Welcome to the Swamp, its humid and flippin' hot! But so worth the effort! :)

I hope you stick around and get acclimated.
 
Awesome score:thumbup:
The RMD is a "must have":cool:
 
Al does FANTASTIC work. I love the Kydex sheath he made for my RMD, and the price was very reasonable for the quality of workmanship.
 
Welcome to the Swamp Rat family. You will love it and I have a sheath from azwelke too. Very nice!
 
Congrats on the RMD... Your gunna love it! You really should get a HRLM
to go with it..... :D

Also,My brother & law and I both have ordered from Al ... And I gotta
say that he does GREAT work!! :thumbup:

A small amount,but together we have ordered;
2 kydex RMD's
3 kydex S.Rat's
2 kydex HRLM's
2 Kydex Scrap Yard S5 LE's
and 1 Kydex BWM CG....
Every one fits perfect... And Not one rubs the blade!:thumbup:

Congratulations on your Rat. If you have been poking around and reading I guess you know you are in trouble.... Rats tend to attract other Rats.... and then Hogs and Dogs start showing up and all hell breaks loose :)

I had an original Ratmandu from the first run of black/black G10, I let it go and regretted it ever since. I just ordered a tan/tanker the other day, can't wait to get it.

Seriously though that Ratmandu is gonna be lonely without a Chopweiler around!

Yep, you aren't kidding. I ordered the RMD in August and once I got it I had to get the HRLM. Then of course the Warden had to join the club. Now last week I felt the urge to get a little bigger Rat and picked up the M9CG. Hope that is it for a while.
 
I stuck my toe in the Swamp today with the RMD.....but, who am I kiddin'.....might as well just jump head first into the Swamp cause I'm sure more Rats are gonna be chasin' me...not to mention the Dogs and Hogs right behind them....:D
 
PREPARE YOUR WALLET FOR TRAUMA!

I ordered my first Rats in September, an RMD and a Warden.

Now I've had a good friend buy an HRLM, I'm on pre-order for the RatManDeux, and I'm waiting to receive a new Basic 11!!

Its a freakin disease!

about friggin time. grats on the new blade...gona need some pics when ya get it! :D
 
I got my RMD several months ago. Your going to be very pleased.

I fell in love with the steel so bad, that i hade a custom maker forge me a chopper from 52100.

And now I'm on the RatManDeux LE pre-order as well.

See how it goes.
 
WOW!!! I received the RatManDu a few days ago and I just can't quit looking at it and carrying it around. I've always heard how nice this knife feels in the hand, and I absolutely concur 100% with that sentiment.

Thanks Eric for such phenomenal service and allowing me the chance to own my first Rat....:thumbup:

The true question is........how many more will I end up buying...:D
