The RMD. The ESSE 5 is too fat and heavy.

Choose for what?

Slicing sashimi? Neither one.

Walrus flensing? Neither one.

Making fuzz sticks? Neither one.

Choose for a general Combat/ Survival knife. I can use on a deployment?

Another vote for the rmd. I like the esee 5 but its too big and heavy to carry around everyday for me... And I like big heavy knives

I would get the RMD and a good sheath, maybe a spec ops combat master (short)

OK. Now we are getting somewhere. Are you planning on using it more for hand-to-hand combat, or for survival stranded deep behind enemy lines? "Deep behind enemy lines" I would go small and light...something like a Fallkniven F1...10 oz lighter than the ESEE-5. Though...it doesn't have an awesome skull on it.
