If the knife you are buying does not have the -MB after it's part number (regardless of color), then you will not get a MOLLE back.

All configurations are packaged in a plastic bag with sheath instruction sheet and RAT Cutlery survival business card.
Our 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. We suggest using a dry film rust inhibitor such as TUF-GLIDE or TUF-CLOTH.
