Of those on the list, I only own the Ratmandu and the DMCG. I’m still waiting on the DMDC. Between the two I have, I like the RMD as a user. The DMCG has an edge that is too obtuse for my taste, and I’m no fan of the small basic handle. I passed on the DMLE because of that handle.

I keep the DMCG in my medium size urban emergency kit. For that purpose, with “entry tool” high on the possible uses, the Mutt’s blade becomes a decent compromise. The DM is also shorter overall than the RMD, which lets it fit into my urban kit’s small bag.

When I get my DMDC, I will consider replacing the DMCG for urban bag use. It has the same overall length, better handle, better blade, but still a thick spine. I won’t decide that until I’ve looked the knife over. I may keep it as an overall user.
