Just curious if there was any new information on when the new Ritter fixed blade that will be made by Benchmade will be out. I'm patiently waiting for this one. OK, well, maybe not so patiently waiting. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Thanks!

The first few RSK Mk3s have been completed and I have signed off on it. I had one at Blade Show and Steve is doing the photography as we "speak." The first production run of serialized blades is in production. As soon as Aeromediix takes delivery, they will be available, but there will be no pre-purchase sales or availability until they are in stock and ready to ship. No more pre-order/delivery nightmares, than you very much. <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> I am not allowed to even hazard a guess when that will be. So, please be patient a little bit longer. I think you'll find it worth the wait.

That's great news!!!! Thank you for making my day! I don't suppose you can divulge what the final blade length turned out to be can you? Wow! I'm really happy. I was secretly afraid this one might die a premature death or something. No basis for my fear other than the fact that I really want one of these based on how much my family LOVES the folding Rittergrips.

You may not be aware, but Camillus is having serious problems (financial and labor). How this will eventually all play out is anyone's guess, though if I were a Camillus factory worker I think I'd be looking for another job. The RSK Mk2 is tied up as a result. It's ready for production, but until that sorts itself out... <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

I can HEAR you guys salivating...it's just a knife...you should be ashamed of yourselves! <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I bet Aeromedix will be getting a lot more hits with all of us checking the site to see when it's available too <img src="/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
