RAT's got to have the best (actually I think the only) smell of any knife coming out of the bag. Sometimes ya gotta buy a new one just for a fresh wiff
 
I want that smell again! My RC-4 had two distinct smells, one was the micarta and the other was probably the powder coating. Fresh from the factory!
 
Damn, I forgot to smell mine when I got it.....do you think the odor is still there? :cool:
 
I was expecting to open this thread and see Lynyrd Skynyrd Lyrics.

I was thinking this too... maybe an RC blade on the album jacket or something...

If you do take a pic of all the RP knives together Mrs Shotty, post it on the wall to remind the Mr why he need to supply you with an endless supply of chocolate and cider.... :) Hope you do take a pic and post it!
 
I have to agree--they do have the best out-of-box smell. :D

We got one random Kabar at the shop once that kind of freaked us out. The leather handle smelled like hotdogs. JUST LIKE HOTDOGS!!! :eek:
 
I think that was the smell of tuf-cloth.

I use Eezox on my blades and like the smell of that too.
 
I don't think you need to wait for the knives, though it'd be good to try and blame it on that. That's going to be so much awesome in one place...

:mental note: mail #303 LAST :p

getting odd is no excuse for not taking a photo of all of them together ...

i'll try to remember. i want a video of our little ups guy bringing the box to the door! i think it might just break him in 1/2. he's probably 140 lbs after a big meal at the buffet and carrying books.

Now THAT would be funny to see! I don't envy the guy. I'm about the same weight. :D
