Well I just ordered the Doug Ritter RSK MK1-G2, because of all the good reviews & posters on this forum. Thanks Everyone!
This is nicely done. The clip seems to be the major sore spot on these pieces, and this simply addresses that sore spot... well, spot on.I have a recent habit of recessing knife handle mount surfaces for deep carry clips. I had to try it with the Ritter.
The deep clip now sits about the same height or lower than a standard Benchmade clip.
In my mind, what sets the/my Doug Ritter (RSK MK-1 Full-Size with Cuscadi scales) apart, from other similar B.M.'s, is the blade geometry (high Saber-Grind and relatively thin behind the edge for a B.M.).
I have two, both blades are off-center, one worse than the other almost touching the G10. The worst part, if you close the knife while the lock bar is riding the tang, there's a rough grinding between the metals that actually gouge the bar pretty badly. The lock bar has sharp edges that hurt when fiddled with for a while, never an issue with my G10 Griptilians. I am plenty surprised that I am the only one here with negative experience with the two copies I have.
Ya I would give them a call. Usually if it is as egregious as that they will take care of you.I have two, both blades are off-center, one worse than the other almost touching the G10.
