wondering if there was a side by side of the HRLM and the S5 or HR and RC4 anywhere

Give me a few minutes. I need to dig thru the Big Box O Knives. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Here you go. As you can see, I convexed my HRLM (my first attempt at a full convex grind in 2007). The handle on the HRLM fits my hand so well, that is one of the reasons I like the Ratmandu so much. I also enlarged the choil and modified the thumb rest on it. It has the same handle handle as the Ratmandu. I sold all my SYKCO and Swamp Rat small Res C handled knives. The "Mudders" fit me much better. I find the RC-4 handle a bit small as well, but I can live with it. I just threw in the Bark River Bravo-1 because it is another favorite of mine in the 4" blade size. Love the handle on that one.

thank you Very much!

You're welcome fastcamo. The RMD and HRLM are both very fine knives, among the best anywhere.

Eric, Vic needs a commission, he just sold another knife

Eric doesn't need my help to sell those knives. They will go fast.

Once again HD comes through with pics. I am glad I was able to order me a RMD, in the same color combo too. I just wish I had the extra to get the HR but with the Regs, Dereg, Swamp Wardens, one could not be got. Thanks for the pics.

I wanna have a collection like that when im a JYD <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />

That Bravo-1 is a beautiful piece, but so is the Scrapper5! HD, don't you pretty much put a convex on all your blades? The RMD and S5 don't look like it.

Those just have convex final edges, but they cut well. I usually do a full convex grind to my Busses. Of course, my HG55LE and Killa Zilla came that way.

Is it just me or do the current tan handles have more of a orange tint to them than the current runs? It seems they are going with more of a dessert sand look now.
