Not a bad looking Rat. I might have to give one a try someday, but not until I can find one on the cheap. What steel is it made out of? Right now, all RC blades are 1095. There is a machete coming in 1075, and rumors of stainless versions of some knives in 440c. Also a mention of the upcoming folder possibly being in D2...

Hmm, the 1075 machete sounds real interesting. 440c, Benchmade for me.

True - forgot about the OD version. Still, if you want orange on black, you have to buy two knives and swap slabs <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I had no idea the Regulators were that stout. I thought the Tank Buster was a thick blade, but the Regulator might be a bit thicker ?

The tank buster was 1/4 of an inch thick. The Regulator is 1/3 of an inch. So yeah, thicker than the buster.
