I've always loved to edc my mini-grips, but didn't have a Ritter until today.

Reminds me alot of the custom mini I had made with the split arrow silver clip and S30V blade material, but I do love the Ritter blade shape like so many have said.

I am going to enjoy carrying this new gem.

I am carrying a regular drop point mini drip now. I am waiting on my new Ritter M4 mini to arrie any day. This will be my first Ritter mini to and I am excited to compare the blade shape to the standard. (And some day I will have to get a custom mini with a tanto)

I almost pulled the trigger on this one as the stone wash looks amazing, but when I heard there was M4 ritters I was able to hold back.

Got the M4 Ritter and love it. I can't say anything bad about the standard mini in MDP, I just like the Ritter blade shape even better, larger, more belly.

That being said the stone washed satin is beautiful so it's on my list.

Thanks!

I ordered the Carbon Fiber Micarta in the Cuscadi Scales and Orange G10 in the Wilkins.

The stock color on the M4 is Orange and Black on the S30V Ritter mini.

Yep, it's what I call a "gold class mini griptilian" ... M4 steel and CF scales.

I like the all-black matte hardware as well.

The good news is that the DLC shouldn't wear very much so this thing isn't going to be a safe queen, I plan on adding it to my rotation.

Now that looks so nice and should be very comfortable in the hand, you are a lucky man indeed.

Very nice, the hardware is just right and clip is perfect for it.

Definitely a gold class ritter.

I love those scales! I got a Ritter (S30V, not M4) a few months ago and I love the blade. I think that in terms of the steel, the blade size, and shape, it's like getting the blade a Strider SnG, but at a fracton of the cost and weight.I replaced my grip 550HG for the Ritter in my EDC rotation and I haven't come up with a single complaint. I definitely want a set of those scales though!

Ordered my s30v Ritter today and sure nuff, some guy has to go and spoil my joy with those cf customer scales! Now I've got to wait for the Ritter to arrive, then order the scales and wait some more. Christmas will NEVER get here!
