Any chance at a run of Ronin 1 fixed blades?

The Ronin 1 was small, light, and carried easily. It also cut well and was great for EDC tasks.
Please let me know if it's possible to look at the link above and not want one.

Dear Ferruginous:
Thank you for your post and your interest in the first-gen Ronin. We had an inquiry from a dealer a few years ago about a possible Exclusive and went back to the original maker for a quote. Sadly, it was far too high to make the project workable.
The original Ronin design posed a number of challenges to the maker and the dimensional inconsistencies in their production made sheath making--a separate process done here in the US--extremely challenging.
I have no doubt we could do far better today with a different maker, but I don't see it happening.
If you really need to scratch that itch, I've authorized custom knifemaker Mickey Yurco to do handmade versions of the knife (with his own spin on the design). I own several and love them...

Stay safe,

That is a cool idea imagine one like an “enuff” FRN handle, jimping, thick, sharp pointy wharnie!
