Expecting it in October.





Now some other stuff, mainly Böker Plus CLB line with a old Ka-Bar display box. I might write an email to Ka-Bar to ask how old that could be.;)

Besides all that, I'm gonna pick up a RAT RC-3 regular somewhere this week. Wish me luck.

Man of Iron: Welcome. Our Böker man is back. Cool knives. :cool: Let us know how that hills dagger is. I may want to get one. :D I will have a hard time waiting till October.

I love that Kabar display. (other blades too!) The Kabar in the display is it grey parkerised finish or black enamel? When Kabar re introduced the the knife in 1976 they had the grey blade like the WW2 knives. In 1977 they switched to black enamel. The display wouldn't be an earlier than this. The orginal WW2 Kabars looked a little different to the one in the display. Pommel differences and no black spacers. You may know all this anyway.

lol Thanks Noss and Tac.

I didn't know all that ab00t Ka-Bar, not much a fan, just bought it because I found/find it extremely alluring, cost me some persuasion and €300 (that's a lot for a Ka-Bar!!!) to get this. I see no significant difference between the blade in the display and my short Ka-bar... except the size :p So it's must be a "new" one.

As for the Hill Knives dagger, it's limited to 250 pieces, at least the first run, and already 2/3 is ordered.(you can ordered the # you want if it's still available) Price is €285, but I think I'll get mine a bit cheaper, ab00t €250-€260, but dunno exactly how m00ch.

I'll also let you geese (damn I miss 'Allo 'Allo) know whether the RC-3 and I make good buddies... no jail buddies:rolleyes:

That is a wicked looking knife. Scary :eek:

Looks scary but it ain't tough. :D

I'm just kidding, R.J. Martin has some really fantastic designs. Mainly fighter knives though so yea, the intimidating factor sorta help.

I'm a big fan of that design, quite Frankly, and what one of his customs, though they run for 300 and for that I'd be more satisfied with something else.

MSRP of the Rampage is $129, maybe you can get them a bit cheaper somewhere else, but it seems to be out of stock constantly because it's too popular... duh it's a "cheap" R.J. Martin. Like all Böker Plus, designed by outside designers, manufactured in Far East, good price/quality ratio.

I'm gonna play with my new toys some more, than I'll let you know.

That is a freaky looking knife. I like it! Like a dagger, it says made for one purpose only all over it. Since you are going to play with your new toys I take it you will be back in a month or two?
