with all do respect. i dont have a gun currently becuase of where im am now. i have had a major dose of reality more than anyone should ever have. and im between law enforcment and a few other majors i just havent fully decided,being a cop though is looking kinda dimmer for me cause of other reasons(im sorry i would say but i dont tell strangers thinsg like these.) im considering photography and other arts.but ill just stop there because were all heading off on a rabbit trail. and i just dont buy rambo knife toys , i learned that lesson as little kid. i look long and hard and anaylze and research all my equiment before buying. cause i would rather have a few good quality knives rather than 15 mediocre ones, and dougs knife is out of my price range at this day and moment cause im trying to save a few bucks these days. but it looked nice though. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />but ill definetly take another look at it again.

i just noticed to that now im a journeyman on here since i have 50 post. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Yay for me! haha

Save your pennies ... and a few dollars ... and take a real serious look at Doug's RSK Mk3 fixed blade knife.

I've had mine for a few months now and it is well worth the price. It is specifically designed by Doug to be a medium weight/length survival/camp knife, and it has all the features I wanted in a fixed blade, plus it does have a real "cool factor".

The blade's finish is beautiful and the handle's finish matches the beauty in every respect. Note that the blade is larger and thicker than the lengendary Mk1 Rittergrip. While it is lightweight enough to be easily carried, it is still large and tough enough to do what's asked of it.
