R.A.M. Flipper Hawk???

Ok, after one day of carry......I just ordered another one.
This is one bad azz flipper!!
I'm telling you guys that don't have one, don't think about it...Just Do It!!

I passed it around to a few guys at work that also have Kershaws
with SpeedSafe. After they flipped it they couldn't believe it wasn't
an AO. I had to prove it to them. It's that slick!!

Thanks for the tips :) on the clip/G10 issue I'll try bending the clip slightly first, if that doesnt work I'll give it a light sanding below the clip. Outdoors. ;)

Enjoy your RAM's !!

I saw some pics of RAM prototypes on here that had a clip attached to the very back of the handle that had a small wheel to make the clip a little easier to use. I am not sure how I feel about clips that are hardwired into the back of a knife (the SOG Arcitec is like that for example) because it takes away the option to remove them, but I've never experienced a clip with a wheel.

I think I also read in other posts that the RAM would be going to production with a standard removable clip, like the Groove has, as pointed out in another post, and without a wheel.

My questions are: Are there any RAMs out there available with the wheeled clip? If so, I welcome any information on acquiring one. Does anyone have experience with a wheel clip and what do they think about it? Does the spur-like look of the wheel cause extra wear on the pants pocket? If they make it easier to clip to a pocket, does it also make it easier to remove at the cost of being too easy to remove and possibly losing? Also the wheel looked rather small...a tiny wheel, a tiny axle..is it just far enough away from keeping it simple that they are just not worth it, either to manufacture or as a weakest-link point of failure for a user?
 
The only way you can get a wheel clip on this is to get a custom Hawk RAM.
Also Kershaw decided against the wheel for the reason of having to many parts
on just a clip. I think it was 10-12 parts that make up just the wheel clip.
