Note: ESEE KNIVES are made from high carbon 1095 steel. And while 1095 is a top choice for professional cutlery designed for hard use, it will rust and stain if not properly cared for - especially on the cutting edge and around the laser engraving. It is the user's responsibility to keep the blades properly lubricated and cleaned. RAT Cutlery suggests using a dry film rust inhibitor such as  TUF-CLOTH.

 

ESEE RC-20SS Sheath System
(MOLLE Back Sheath)

RAT Cutlery RC-20SS Sheath System

RC-3 knives with the MB suffix include the RC-20SS Sheath System.  The system includes the RC-40CB Molded Sheath, the RC-42MB MOLLE BackPlate, and the RC-41BC Boot Clip.

The RC-3 Sheath System was designed by RAT Cutlery Company and field tested during its development phase.  This unique system allows the user to carry the RC-3 knife securely on a MOLLE platform in standard or inverted mode.  The knife can also be carried concealed inside the waist band by removing the molded sheath from the MOLLE back and attaching the included boot clip.  The molded sheath is also designed to attach to a standard  Blade-Tech Tek-Lock or MOLLE Lok for additional vertical and horizontal carry options.

The RC-3 knife is held in place by a friction fit in the molded sheath.  The knife is easily removed by gripping the knife handle with the fingers, then pushing the thumb against the sheath.  When used with the MOLLE back, the elastic butt cover and Velcro retention strap add additional security measures for jumping from aircraft or other extreme activities that may cause the knife to come loose from the sheath.  The sheath system is fully ambidextrous in any carry mode.  It can also be belt carried, drop-leg carried, or lashed.  The lashing holes also facilitate storing a length of 550 cord by wrapping around the sheath and through the holes.

A lot of thought went into this design, thus creating a compact package capable of survival uses, as well as military, law enforcement, and rescue duty.  The sheath screws are made from brass, no metal snaps are used since they have a tendency to jam with dirt and grime, and the ballistic nylon will take just about anything you throw at it.
