Show us your fixed blades

How is it mate? 

I like the feel of it. The handle is made of rubber, soft, nice to grip and not sticky.
Classifications the same with other knives/blades: illegal (only if you're caught )
I just wish it has a synthetic leather or hard plastic pouch for edc. I'm not comfortable wearing
it inside my shoe.

OK - so decided that I wanted a quality fixed blade to play with when I get the opportunity, and as luck would have it, Neil had one he wanted rid of.

So, I have a RAT RC-3, which so far, I'm liking a lot!






It's my only fixed blade, but I think it's a good one

I had a quick look at that at the meet-up, seemed like a quality bit of kit IMO.

[DaveK]

I gather they are an acquired taste

There were a few comments about grip and so on, but having small hands, I find the grip comfortable and secure - so I shall be giving this one a go.

I can't put it down so far

Not a problem that I found myself but, like you, I don't exactly have shovels for hands either.

Not sure what the blade steel is, but I shall nip off to research it now......

The RC-3 (now ESEE-3) is made in 1095 steel.

I figured that out shortly after posting - thanks Carlos

Glad its good for you Dave.  I had nothing against it at all (sheaf aside), its just that I found myself using my Mora for everything for fear of mucking up the finish   

Your _{(a little)} less of a tart so it may now see more action

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

You've got yourself a bloody good knife there Dave

I know I was certainly tempted

[AHB]

That's one good looking knife Dave..

I've named it Roland.

[jzmtl]

You object naming people are weird. 

[DaveK]

Lol - I don't normally, but Roland Rat just seemed appropriate

Or Rita if it's a girl..
