Doug Ritter recalls that about the second or third email he received after announcing the introduction of his acclaimed RSK® Mk1-G2 was a query asking when a "Mini" version would be available. Those sorts of emails, texts and posts have continued unabated. Ritter is pleased to announce that his Mini-RSK® Mk1-G2, manufactured by Hogue, is now available exclusively from KnifeWorks.com. The everyday low price is only $139.95 with FREE continental U.S. Ground shipping.
Sales of all Doug Ritter knives and gear support Ritter's Knife Rights efforts. The fully ambidextrous Mini-RSK® Mk1-G2 (Generation 2) features Ritter's signature 3-D milled G10 handle, Ritter's highly regarded wide-chord, high flat-ground drop point blade in super premium CPM 20CV steel, 2.9 inches long, the ambidextrous ABLE™ Lock, and other refinements. Compact and svelte, it weighs in at just 2.6 ounces. Despite the smaller size, it is still a Doug Ritter knife you can bet your life on™.
The Mini-RSK® Mk1-G2 is a compact, more conveniently sized version of Ritter's highly praised original. It is a superb utility folder and it will meet blade length restrictions that in some jurisdictions or locations still limit carry knives to a maximum three-inch blade length (albeit fewer than before Ritter started Knife Rights).
Ritter notes that creating the Mini-RSK® Mk1-G2 was not as easy as just scaling down the full-size RSK® Mk1-G2. "The smaller the knife, the trickier it is to get the ergonomics right. But, with Hogue's perseverance we have created a Mini without sacrificing stellar ergonomics and performance."
The Mini-RSK® Mk1-G2 is manufactured in the USA and is covered by Hogue's recently updated limited lifetime warranty that accommodates owner maintenance and disassembly.
The Mini-RSK® Mk1-G2 is initially available with either a Black or Orange G10 handle and a stonewashed CPM 20CV high carbon powder metallurgy stainless steel blade. It is available exclusively from KnifeWorks (
www.Knifeworks.com) at an everyday price of only $139.95 with FREE continental U.S. Ground shipping. All of Doug Ritter's Knifeworks Exclusive Knives can be found at:
