Stumbled across RBB on facebook the other day.
I've never heard of them. They seem to be a small compnay, apparently Vet. owned, made in USA.
According to the site and one review I've managed to find the blades are made from triple Cryo treated 1095blanks w/ 57-58Rc.
Run around $100, give or take.
Their Zeus Black looks real nice, so I was curious.

First answer, no I haven't heard of them. Sure it could be a good company. However, in that price range i'd expect something more like D2. With no grips I'm not seeing the reason for the pricing. Rc on treated 1095 is 56-58, so again I'm just not seeing why you would pay 100 bucks.
 
True- one could get an Izula II or similar for less.
Although as far as handles, I've seen plenty of super expensive knives (to me anyway) being sold with para-wrap instrad of proper handles of some sort.....
 
They are good folks.
Not pretending to be high end. Just nice tool-utility type blades. I've followed him for about 6 months.
Does alot of giveaways, trying to live his dream.
Good on him.
