I've wondered why RMK doesn't offer the Model 17 style handle on all the full tang models. The virtually useless channel cut in the tang could be eliminated and the handle slabs wouldn't need hollowed out, either. As a chargeable option, it would increase their profits because every RMK 'accumulator' worth their salt would need several knives with this option!
Any thoughts on this?
