I finally ordered an RC5 Black PB w Blk Sheath. Now the waiting game. I hate waiting! This will be RAT #3. What a beautiful knife! Normally when I get a new blade it has to stay in my sight just to look at for a couple of weeks. Then I'm forced to put it with the rest. Waiting waiting waiting.

I had to come onto the forum to talk with you who understand.

Waiting.

Congrats... you will like it a lot. Its a great knife.

But what does this mean?:

Do you sell them after you get them? Do you "Safe Queen" them? Or do they get put away again until you want to use them again?

Just wondering....

I literally just keep them out in my sight for a couple of weeks so I can look at and pick them up and just drool over them. After that they go into my delegated knife space. Then I get them out every other day just to drool over them again. I guess it's kind of childish and it's just stuff but i hate to take a new knife out and immediately use it. I like to see it in that new state for a while before I crud it up.

Now, I like seeing a new blade as much as the next guy, but RATs look better when they are used. I remember I got my RC 4 the first thing I did was go out and use it. :thumbup:

I guess it's like that old saying "beauty is in the eye of the RAT freak" ;).

I'm waiting on another rc4 (tan, I already have a black one) and a Busse NMSFNO.I know how you feel. I'm a complete bundle of nerves right now.
 
I'm ordering 2 RC3s',and 2 RC4s'this Monday.One of the 3s' is for my wife,and one of the 4s' is for a buddy who just got married.The other 2 knives are mine,both in tan,then the wait begins.
 
Friej, sounds like a classic case of the twofurs...one for a user, and one for
the collection drawer. I suggest ordering another one pronto!;)

I'm with ya man. I just need a good way to convince my wife on that one. I'm wide open for any and all suggestions.

I recently bought her a mini griptillian, which she loves.I now intend to get her a pink Izula which I know she'll also love. However, that won't give me more freedom to get more knives it will just subtract the amount of money I can spend on the ones I want.
