Well guys I want to get my first rats. I know I want to get a Izula but I also want to get a micarta handled Rat. Im thinking of getting the RC4 but I also like the rat 3. I was thinking the 3 is similar to the izula in funtion but I have my bravo 1 that is similar to the rc4...so tough to decide!

The Izula will be going in my EDC bag (maxpedition Jumbo) and the rc3/4 will probably be more for camping/hiking
 
If I were you I would go ahead and get the RC-4, it will widen the range of use for your RAT knives.
 
If you have a Bravo-1 and are getting an Izula I say go RC-6.
Unless you just really like 4" knives? (I have 6 6-7" knives!)

I agree, go with the RC-6. You already have 4" blades. Just to let you know, you will eventually get the RC-4 anyway so get both and be happy.
 
I guess I will have to have a look at the rc 6 then--for some reason it didnt come to mind. Thanks guys:)
 
The RC-6 would cover a wider range of needs for camping & hiking since you already have a knife with a 4" blade. That would be my choice if I were in your situation.
 
Since you already have the 4" covered, I also think the RC 6 is your best bet. It is a great knife, and can do the smaller tasks as well.
