Some limitations on that. The bigger blades (12s and 13s above 8") are not available in SS. Even that "rule" has a caveat: 12-9 no SS available, "12-9 14 grind" SS available. (see posts #2 and 3 of this thread way back on page 1.)



As a general rule: if it is offered with SS standard, you cannot request non-stainless. I can't think of any exceptions to this rule but one or two may exist.

Thank u

Isn't it the exceptions that prove the rule? ;-)

Just a quick question, one the model 8, new style, are thumb notches a cost option? Thanks.

Yes... $25

One more quick note..

While the #6 grind is available with the 4-6, it is not available on the 4-6 fighter. I found out with my most recent quarterly order submission (friendly e-mail from RMK about it, asking how they should proceed with my order).

Just in case you were thinking about ordering one like that.

#4-6" with a #6 grind add double hilt... would make for a bad @$$$ lookin fighter.

Yes it would but this is my preference.

Discovering it through the forum and the authorized dealers, I'm more and more attracted by the Triathlete. I prefer it when it has a handle instead of the skeleton version. So my question is:" Is it possible to buy it already handled by the shop (with the handle material proposed by them) or do we have to do it ourselves? Although I'm not scared about abusing a knife in the field or about sharpening it, I'm thinking twice before working on it with files and grinder. Thanks.

Not available from the shop. I can have it done (professionally) by a couple of different sources.
Hope this helps, Capt. Chris
