Because I finally bought a ESEE/RC-4.

I bought it 5 minutes ago and the postman is already late getting it here.

now I play the waiting game.

Your knives are awesome......

MrCoffee · Feb 18, 2010

Yup, been there done that.

Part of the rite of passage to become a Knife addict ya know.

Gonna love the RC-4, great blade and tough as anything you would need. Congrats.

To help pass the time, you could always print out a photo of your new ESEE and put it in your pocket. When you start to feel sad you can pull out the photo and imagine yourself holding it!

..... Oh, and just make sure no one is looking.

I got the tan ESEE 4, took less than a week to get here!!!!!

I was fooling around with mine a while back and it was due for a sharpening so I convexed it. Had no idea what I was doing, but it turned out nice. I like it even more now! Probably my favorite RAT for sure.

Yea, I'm on the same boat.
The waiting game sucks.

slice o' life · Feb 18, 2010

That is the worst and most frustrating game to play.

Oh the wait, that's the one thing all us RAT Packers dread! You can always camp out on the front lawn and confront the mailman as he comes up everyday.....lol!

JNieporte · Feb 18, 2010

Yes, we're very happy. Question is, when your RC-4 arrives, will you be happy?

Waiting is kind of fun..expecially when u have a few on order.. I have a HEST coming and thinking of pulling a trigger on a RC-4... Its kind of like Christmas!!

t-k-c · Feb 18, 2010

I agree! Waiting for a knife gives you something to look forward to and it's the coolest thing ever to see the box in your mailbox

congrats on the new knife!

There's still 4 feet of snow in places in the woods around here.(I know, I just buried my 4 wheeler in it this morning).So maybe a snowshoe trip and a fire are in order.

I don't mean to derail this thread but could you post some pictures of your blade with the convex edge some time? I don't know a lot about convex edges but I'm interested in seeing how much of the finish you have to grind away to get a smooth, gradual, convex edge on these ESEE knives

I'm happy for you, don't envy the waiting though
