got a package today with an rc-6 in it.i was lookin for a knife like this for awhile and after researching for week starting with tops this is the knife i chose.i'm very happy i did,only deal is now i want a 5 and a 4.
 
4 & 5 are too close to the 6. what you really want is a junglas :D

On the 6
 
i at least want an orange handle 4.i debated on the 5 over the 6 initially but went with the 6,i wanted the length for a hiking(camp knife),but i can't get the 5 out of my head.i guess the thick blade an scull on the side.i know some of you guys have both the 5 and six.is there enough diffrence to want them both?i'm thinking i will go for the orange handle plain edge for sure.

im in the same predicament in regards to 5 vs. 6. The thickness of the 5 sure does look appealing, not to mention it comes with the kydex rather than the molded of the 6. But i definitely like the length of the 6.
Why dont they offer kydex on the 6 without having to go with aftermarket (double barrel ?)
Is anyone making upgraded grips for these? I sure do like the look of the 6 in OD, but it'd look even better with some of those "burnt" looking micarta grips as found on the busse/swamprat "ratmandu"

Congrats, I just received the same knife. I like it a lot.
Now I want an Izula, an RC4, RC5 and the Izula Folder when it comes out!
 
I've got a RC4 on order, but I'm already thinking I want a 6 as well. Aside from the Junglas, wouldn't a 6 be the better choice for chopping...and the 4 as an all around cutter/slicer??

Yeah, the added length and weight would probably help chop. The RC-4 and 6 have the same thickness though.

Have you seen the destruction tests of the RC-4 on youtube? They're very impressive. The RC-4 really does look like a great knife.
