Your first Swamp Rat

[jsonnier]

What was it ? Why did you choose it ?Do you still have it ? :

 

[BOILER]

Howling Rat, probably my favorite of all my fixed blades. It has a great feel and just keeps performing! Of course I stll have it, it's not going anywhere!

 

[TBAUGH7]

I'll second the Howling Rat, It was my first and still is the best hunting skinning, carry all day at work, work horse of a knife I've ever owned.
If I thought it would ever wear out I would get another... :thumbup:

My first was a Camp Tramp. Fantastic blade and I beat the snot out of it! I sold it when I found my tan handled Ratweiler -- I just couldn't pass that one up.

-360

 

[mhawg]

Howler, closely followed by a Bandicoot. Both models get used.

 

[mymindisamob]

Howler, and it is always in my truck survival kit. It was followed by a FAT Howler, which will be my EDC when it's pants get here.

 

[Greg45]

I ordered a Battle Rat and a Howler at the same time. The BR got here first by a month or two, so it was first on a technicality!

All the knives looked like winners at the time, but for a pair that couldn't be beat in the woods, these two seemed like the logical choices. I've gotten more Rats since, but these two are still winners!

[Thomas Linton]

Inficoot. I wanted a light, tough knife for backpacking.

 

[Bri in Chi]

Camp tramp, but when I sew Thomas's Inficoot, I found myself one

 

[custom1022]

I have Tim Taylor syndrome. I own (2) 300 Remington ultra mags, used to own a BK 9 so naturally my first rat was a:
RATDADDY
Why? Because its the king of all rats.
I feel a big chopper is the most important tool you can have if a hike/pack trip goes wrong.

 

[TNRat]

Bog Dog. You cannot go wrong with that one. Yes, I still have it.

Looking for another, as a matter of fact.

 

[G19G26]

Bandicoot, a great EDC blade.

 

[Santi]

Mine is the Satin Rat . . . still have it, still use it and still love it.

 

[arnoldglee]

Rat Tail, talk about a nice slim, highly-concealable EDC!

 

[Heavy]

Ordered a RW first but the Desert Jacks went on sale while I was waiting so the DJ is the one.


LOVE it. really do.

Still have it???? only untill someone prys my cold dead fingers from it...

 

[Martin Swinkels]

1: Rat Trap

2: Ratweiler

3: Bandicoot

I'd like to add a Rat Hunter

 

[jsonnier]

I want mine to be the Ratweiler .

 

[cdyer]

Inficoot

 

[Cutshaw]

First was the Howling Rat. Still my primary EDC in the bag.

 

[gugsi]

I ordered a Bog Dog once, but had to cancel due to sudden shortage of cash ...
I still kick myself for that one. I shoulda just gotten the knife. What are credit cards for anyway?

But then I got the Ratweiler and all was well.
For EDC I have the Trap. Takes care of all I need a knife for on a day to day basis.
