Announcing Doug Ritter's New Folder Pre-Sale!
Ever since Benchmade told Doug Ritter they were ceasing production of the RSK Mk1 he's been working on a new folder. We are very excited that Doug just signed off on the final pre-production prototype. Blades are already being cut from sheets of Böhler M390,small parts are being machined, composite handles being produced…we're only 30-60 days from actually having stock of the first production run according to the manufacturer!
And, that's all the details you’re going to get until we actually have them in stock to ship. The photo above gives you some hints. Let the speculation begin… Doug appreciates all those who have collected his first production run RSK folders over the years and wants to give them first shot at getting quot their number & quot of this first production run of the new folder. However, the bad news is that the list of numbers and the collectors associated with them has gone missing.
So, here's the deal:
Collectors who wish to pre-order are allowed to pre-order their number(s), BUT you will need to email us photos of your collected knives in order to validate your number. In the case of multiple submissions of the same number, the person with the most knives with that number(s) gets the new one. In case of a tie, we'll put the names in a hat and pull the winner. It's hardly perfect, but it's the best we could come up and we hope everyone appreciates that this will be a pain in the you-know-what for us, but we're trying hard to do the best we can given the situation.
