I purchased a sheath from the Yard for the Mil. Regulator but I'll have to contact one of the fine sheath makers here in the yard with us for a necker for the Swamp Warden.....money, money, money, money <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

What do you guys think in general of the HRLM vs the Ratmandu? I've never held either but I wonder...I preordered one HRLM and one Ratmandu, I'm debating changing that to two Ratmandus.

im kinda in the same place. i dont own either one and i can only afford one <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" /> i dont know what to do!!!

You wouldn't be disappionted with either. I say RMD if I had to pick just one. There is a reason it became an instant classic.

id love one of each but to be honest my S5 fills the niche of the ratmandu, despite how much better the RMD will balance because of the full tang.
i chose not to go for the HRLM because i think an RC-3 might do about the same job and for the $$ just wasnt worth it for me. i will be trying to pick up an HRLM later but i just cant right now.

the wardens seem to be a perfect edc so i went with one.

id love to get a bunch but i dont have the $ to spend on safe queens, all my blades are users

yup all my scrapyards are users, even my LE's arent safe.

im for sure getting at least one warden im liking the moss or sage.

im leaning towards the RMD even though i have a S5 CG already. i just feel like i will regret not getting a ratmandu later down the road. i have a RC-4 already and i think that can pretty much cover the same jobs as a HRLM can do.

if i had the cash i would be getting a few of all of them!

I would love a Swamp Warden, but my Skele Warden already fills that niche for me. Its's true that both the RMD and the S5 are similar but I just couldn't pass on a RMD at factory prices.

ok, im gonna do it, one ratmandu and one warden. now just gotta choose the colors!

Thanks for the help on "Sage". I couldn't tell from the pictures because it seemed a little greenish.

and what about RMD vs HRLM? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

man
i knew this would happen.
Glad I only ordered 1 regulator yesterday.
I been waiting for a chance to get
an rmd and hrlm at a reasonable cost.
went nuts and ordered 2 swamp wardens,2 ratmandu's
and 1 hrlm
now I hope the regulators stay up long enough to
save up for at least 1 more. got a few xmas presents
i can take care of with them. hmmmm,maybe a few more
swampwardens too? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Wish the Yard would come out with a necker!
