Jesselp What's Next? Enthusiast Registered: 07/19/07 Posts: 266 Loc: New York	Too hard to resist. I ordered one. Hopefully the wife wont be able to tell the difference between it and my SOG Seal Pup. . . No idea what number I got.

Ken Money is not an issue. I can very easily afford to pay for the shipping 10x over however there is a point where not paying excessive fees is simply a matter of principle regardless of the cause or the benefactor. _________________________ Earth and sky, woods and fields, lakes and rivers, the mountain and the sea, are excellent schoolmasters, and teach some of us more than we can ever learn from books.

SheetBend Newbie Registered: 09/18/03 Posts: 26 Loc: California, U.S.A.	Ordered mine and asked for a matching serial number to my MK1, MK-1 mini, and MK3. Now I have to wait :-) Sheetbend _________________________ Luck & Chance favor those who are prepared.

#213087 - 12/15/10 03:51 PM Re: Finally! RSK Mk2 Perseverance Sheath [Re: Doug_Ritter]
Doug_Ritter Pooh-Bah Registered: 01/28/01 Posts: 2207	You can view some images of the prototype sheath at: http://www.dougritter.com/pp/pic3019.htm PLEASE NOTE: the tab on the retaining strap on the production sheath will be about 1/2 as long as that on the prototype. Still plenty for one-handed operation with the stiffener, but won't stick out so far as to get caught on things. _________________________ Doug Ritter Editor Equipped To Survive® Chairman & Executive Director Equipped To Survive Foundation www.KnifeRights.org www.DougRitter.com

win Newbie Registered: 09/17/01 Posts: 44 Loc: Hong Kong	Teslinhiker, you may be in Canada but it is for sure that being in Asia, and further beyond US , Knifeworks has a policy of minimum orders of US$100 for international orders. I found out this when I called them. _________________________ Warmest wishes, Oliver

chaosmagnet Sheriff Carpal Tunnel Registered: 12/03/09 Posts: 3842 Loc: USA	I just got the following update from our friends at knifeworks.com: Quote: Update on the Doug Ritter RSK MK2 that you have pre ordered: We have been informed by Benchmade that there is a delay on the arrival as expected. Due to the unforeseen in difficulties with the sheath. We are now expecting these around the end of February. We apologize about the delay and we appreciate your understanding. I'm glad that they sent the update. That's good customer service.
