I was going to recommend to someone that they buy one of the Ritter RSK Mk1's before they are no longer available, but the Knifeworks.com web site is not functioning.

Is it just a temporary web site problem?

Or is Knifeworks shut down?

Just wondering.

The website is up. I'd also like to mention that they are a joy to do business with. No affiliation.

Huh, I can't get knifeworks.com to load using Google Chrome - which is what I use 99.999999% of the time. I tried using MS Edge and it loads but only after a little bit of waiting. Interesting.

Thanks for the responses.

Loads fine with Chromium for me. ( Chromium is Chrome minus the Google tracking/spying )

Just tried in 4 different browsers and worked fine. That being said, Roger is having serious problems with the new site, which sucks. The developers have been fired, will likely be sued, and new developers are doing a do-over, but that will take a few months. Some interim fixes are int he works.

You can go direct to the RSK Mk1 at: https://www.knifeworks.com/doug-ritter-rsk-mk1-stone-washed-m390-blade-knifeworks-exclusive.html

I hope they get things straightened out! Great site, I buy there frequently.
