just received my RD-6 in the mail today with a feb ‘19 production date and the micarta scales fitment leaves a lot to be desired. I know I can sand it down but has anyone else had this problem? I know in years past Ontario’s micarta scales have been hit or miss but I had read (and not had any issues with my RAT knives) that they had largely fixed the issues. I may try and exchange it and hopefully the replacement has better fitment.

I have several OKC Ranger series knives and a couple had some minor overhang in some spots similar to the back end of yours. I tend to re-contour my handles to be less blocky so it's never presented an issue for me.

That being said the front section of yours are raised pretty high. Still an easy fix though.
