Is there something in the steel with these knives that make all of you...er..us so crazy? What is the total cutting edge on the RMD? I know the DM is just under 5", from what I have read.

The Ratmandu blade is just a bit longer than the DM. It is 3/16" thick SR101 steel (52-100) that holds a sharp edge very well. The handle fits larger hands better than the DM handles. But I have both and I still like the DMLE and DMDC just fine. The DM is extremely rugged.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

If I had to choose, I would take the RMD. The sucker is nice. The Mini Uncle Mojo is also a favorite.

With the SOD coming, and possibly a DF in the near future, I figure I've got the bases covered.<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> ![[Linked Image from i292.photobucket.com]](http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm35/d_filgate/Knife---Busse-kin-1.jpg)

Sanded off the Double Cut finish so that it was nice and shiny, and put a convex edge on it (still trying to perfect that, but it cuts pretty good now). Cheers

I am thinking about throwing a DMDC and a Yardkeeper on the Exchange. I missed the SOD's. Perhaps when people start getting the black one's in hand I will get motivated.

I was thinking about putting something on the exchange too, but every time I take something out of the drawer to look at it and see if I can do without it, I end up using it, then putting it back in the drawer. It's extremely difficult to part with any of the knives I have. I really like them all. Their like children. Only problem is that I seem to want more <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
