Thanks for your response.
So the MIL is the better knife?

i wouldnt say it's better. all the molle backing is an option for the RC3's and can be ordered with it.

I prefer the linen handles, youer milage may vary.

so the only big deal i see is the sharpened glass breaker....but i dont go around breaking alot of glass.... The mil is also serial #'d

Ther isn't a better knife in those two, they are completly the same exept handles and sheathing options

If you want to choose it al depends on your preferences,
prefer the mil to the regular one just because it comes with al the sheating options but you are going to pay more for the mil

also i prefer the canvas micarta above the linen but again thats all preferences

I believe the MIL also has a serial number if that matters.

No difference between the two other than looks really. Either will serve you well.

The Mil has the glass-breaker pommel sharpened, as well.

Does the rc-3 molle back have a belt loop?
