Hey everyone! Merry Christmas!

This year was really special because It snowed in Dallas for the first time in my lifetime and it was awesome. Plus I got an RC6!

These appeared to be squirrel tracks in my back yard...

Not sure what these tracks were in my grandparents yard. Coyote most likely.

Also got a nifty candle lantern for my BOB in my truck.

congrats on all 3 counts!
we had a white-out Christmas up here, so I was pretty happy, too!
 
RC-6 awsome blade,the news said the frist time in 80 years for snow in texes
and it rained all day here in MI
 
This weather has really thrown us for a loop here in TN today as well. One of the warmest winters I can remember. Nice photo as well! Congrats on the new blade.
 
Good for you! A White Christmas is a wonderful thing.

I've got that same candle lantern, it's a good piece of kit. They also make a smaller one for tea light candles.

The RC-6 is absolutely on my list for the new year.
 
I know that you will use that candle lantern a tonne! I got a second won this season as well!
 
great pics.. congrats on the new RAT...:thumbup: i wish it would snow here.. my boys would love it...:o
love the candle lantern too.. i have had one of those for years and it seen a lot of use..
 
I forgot to mention how much I LOVE the 6. F&F is of course outstanding, I've got the paracord belt loop thing going on on the sheath, and it feels great in my hands.

Man, I didnt think it was this STOUT. It completely dwarfs the 4. I think it'd make a great combat knife as well.

The blade seems to be a little thinner on the 6 than the 4. Even though the specs are the same at .188. Maybe its just my eyes.

I definitely love that candle lantern. I'm for sure gunna get the tea candle mini lantern soon.

Edit: Aw man, I just saw on ratcutlery.com the part about in Aug. 09 RC6s would be shipping with the belt clip instead of molle locks. Guess I should have checked with the dealer first.. mine didnt come with it. Came with locks :(

Congrats on the new blade and the snow. It's been snowing here the last couple days and it's more than enough for me. The "awww, how pretty" wears off the first time I have to drive somewhere.

The locks are great if you're going to attach it to gear!

Congrats on the 6. When I have my 6 with me, I don't feel like I need anything else.

Get the molle back and pouch. It runs circles around a clip or any other system. The molle locks are nice to have, handy for quick attachment, but the molle back is the bomb.
 
Well Guys My Rc-6 I didn't get for Christmas. I saw a Family who needed a Christmas And My Money that went for the RC-6, I helped a Family who needed it! A local Family in my area. This are tight in Maine and all over we all Know That,so I pass up The RC-6 for a More Big Gift!!
 
First WHITE christmas??? Really...? I can't remember when we haven't had a white Xmas.... well maybe the one we spent in FL at my Mom's place.... Tell ya what, you can have ALL the snow that is headed our way for the rest of this year... and next :)

Sadly, I am in the same boat here... snowing seems to = permission to drive like a moron, drunk, texting, and blindfolded..... of course most out of staters drive like that year round :D
 
Looks like fun. I love snow, it was one of the many things I missed while living in SoCal.
