I think the one aspect of survival that these knives fall short on is skinning and dressing. These blades were designed to take the heavy abuses of field work and are a bit robust for efficient skinning and dressing while maintaining the hide and the entrails of the animal. The one thing that the RAT6 has to aid with skinning is the choil for more control of the tip, and it's nice to have for skinning and dressing. Just something to think about.
Choils, you either love them or hate them . On cleaning game, I've used everything from a pocket knife to a bowie knife, just depended on what was around.
RC6-MIL i think should be a option sometime, they still have to get the molle back out for it, so i know the rat guys aren't done with this one yet. i would imagine a blade the size of the RC6 would come in very handy for many a military personel.
