Wrap your using hand in a big fluffy towel and turn off the lights. Now access and use your 3 tools.

Hmmm...so what will it be?

We can infer that it will be a 12" chopper that will probably retain the handles and coating of the Becker line. What will the RSK part be? Handles packed with goodies? a small companion knife? a "survival sheath" design? Sharpeners, flints, strikers?

Hmmm.......Can't wait to see the pics

For the non knife maniacs, where's the show at ?

As the commercial says, "not exactly"... <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> just two days to go and I'm sure someone will post the specifics before I can. Stay tuned...

ok then, integral beard/mustache trimmer?

I guess it wouldn't need a small companion blade since we already have RSK I & mini. Mirror polished flat near the hilt for signalling? Laser etched portrait of Doug for morale support? or a big "DON'T PANIC" logo <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I love that "Don't Panic" idea. <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Put that on and it's sure to be a winner. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

OK...so the necker is #11, so the number isn't necessarily indicative of blade length...hmmmm....

Here's the pic! Middle knife is Doug's new creation.
New Becker/Ritter knife

I don't want to brag or anything <img src="/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />, but if this is really the new Ritter survival knife it meets my exact specs:Reply
It is not unlike the Ray Mears knife but, I am sure Mr. Ritter won't disappoint us <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />, it will be more affordable. It seems to be extremely rugged with the Becker steel, scales and finish. The protruding tang and thumb rest are also features I really like. If it comes with a synthetic sheath the knife will be able to withstand the hardest use in all climates. And as a side note: since the Becker scales are easily removable and the black finish is also applied to the tang, this could also be the most compact full size survival knife ever.
