Just wondering if there has been any updates on when the availability is on these? I have mine pre ordered, and, last I heard, they were supposed to be available last week. However, checking the status, it is showing backordered-waiting on supplier. Any word on when the availability is?

Doug is travelling with little computer availability. I'll ask him when he resurfaces.

Thanks Chris.

You hear anything at all? Last post was beginning of April.

Sorry about the delay, nobody is happy about it, but... It is getting much closer. The sheath has been a very difficult issue. It has to be compact, fit in the tin, protect the suer and be fully functional and be affordable to manufacture as well. Images of the latst prototype sheath looks promising. We're all committed to getting this as right as we can, and I sincerely appreciate CRKT's patience and perseverance in this regard. We'll get it out as soon as we can. Nobody wants this more than me.

Looking forward to them!!!!

I was gonna call you on this comment, " protect the suer" but given the nature of some of the more litigious folks in the world, it seems to fit...;^)

Thanks Doug. I appreciate you stepping in & letting us know.

Any updates on this? Site still says they are backordered.

Sheath design has been finalized, finally! Expect the RSK Mk5 to ship in the next 45-60 days, absent any further hiccups (fingers crossed mode). Sorry for the delay, but you'll like the end result. The new molded sheath should be much better.
