I gave in to the temptation.....

My three Swamp Rat RMD's arrived today, and I felt guilty that I only have two Regulators....so.....

I just ordered a THIRD Regulator, but the first two came withOUT a sheath so I guess this is "different" since I ordered this Reg with a sheath.

Way to go! The sheath is nice.

Did you get an Wardens? What combos of RMDs?

I'm jealous. i should really order a 2nd reg...waiting for my first to come to check it out though.

That is the great thing about this offering you can have one in your hand and order more! If people don't get in on the Regulator they will regret it. If you don't get in on more than one you will regret it.

Dan has the winningest winner in this one. Lets hope he brings more options out (but there is no counting on that)

I'll have 2... For anyone, they just don't intrest me at all.

Sethrotull,

I wish I would have ordered the sheaths with my first two Regs. I asked if the Reg's would fit in my SpecOps sheaths, and someone on here said they would so I skipped the option (Dan hadn't posted pics yet either). However, the Regulators are EXTREMELY tight in the Combat Master sheaths I have.

My RMD's consist of two Sage with Tan Canvas and one Tanker Grey with Black Paper. Oddly, the blade is visibly thicker on the black paper. My wife could instantly tell that it weighed more too. I like the look of the Sage/Tan, but the "heft" of the TG/B.

I passed on the Wardens, but now I'm regretting that decision!

Vendetta13,

I'm fairly new to Bussekin, but cannot emphasis enough - YOU WILL REGRET NOT GETTING ANOTHER REG! I honestly wasn't that excited about them, because I'm not a fan of the bowie blade profile. However, after feeling how comfortable the handle is and how "powerful" the knife feels in the hand...its rapidly becoming my favorite "big knife".

You MIGHT be able to gently heat the kydex inside the specops sheath, and while it's still sorta warm shove the reg into it. That HOPEFULLY would make it fit. Be advised though, that if you apply TO much heat you could deform the kydex. Then again, you MIGHT be able to order a replacement liner from them.

Oh, guess I should say that you will probably need to remove the kydex from the sheath first if you can.

Skunk Hunter,

After my Regs arrived, I pulled the kydex liner out to see what I could do. I added some Tetra (gun grease) to it, and after the finish "smoothed out" on the thickest blade area (spine) it fits, but I don't need the thumb snaps to keep it in there!

My second, and just ordered third Regulator won't ever see SpecOps sheath time...as they will eventually be gifts for our children (we are going to begin the adoption process for - hopefully - a brother and sister in about a year).

Wow Randy - you're almost at 6K posts! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I just posted this in another thread, but it applies to this one too:

I'm sure that it was a military specification, but I didn't care for the "jump ready" double-snap-loops. First thing I did was carefully cut the bottom loop from one of my sheaths. Still, as Dan noted:

I suspect that anyone who misses out on this release WILL regret it, and as thick as these knives are, you'll want one of the sheaths that are made for it; at +$10, it's too good an to option to skip, even if only to have a spare. Paul, I can't guarantee it, but suspect you may change your mind about your Regs/Deregs once you get a chance to hold one (or are you referring to having two sheaths you won't want)?

My Regulator fits in a SpecOps sheath with modification. I took the liner out and left it on my dashboard (knife in) on a hot day this summer. After it got warmed up I took the knife out and used a large (5gal bucket) paint stirstick to stretch it out a tad more. works great.

Jim, they just don't strike me, i've paid but haven't seen mine yet, however I was able to hold and inspect a friends, I guess it's just one oF those things....

Way to go, those Regulators are very nice knives and the sheath is a great deal! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

That's for sure!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I love my Mil Reg and the great sheath, but my sheath's kydex did not come fitted. Not even close.

I'm just excited about adding a third Reg to my meager collection. The sheath is a bonus at $10.

Congrats on the third Reg, they are hard to beat at that price.

Makes me want to get a third... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

This thread needs a pic, here's my Regs! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Looking good Jeff! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Very nice Jeff! Got to let you know my Sheath is in but I am out of town. Tuesday I should have it!

Rainwalker, great pic!

I like the numbered knives...gives them "personality" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
