Hogue Doug Ritter Mini Knife Review - Bigger Than You Think

[@michaelstevenson1735]

Mine arrived today. I'm checking it out while watching your video. The out of the box action is simply amazing. The clip is a hot spot for me. I swapped it with a bugout clip and it feels much better. I think the reason they went with the longer clip is the shorter clip lands right on the most aggressive texturing on the scale. I'll be sanding down the patch under the clip, then it should be perfect.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

You're absolutely right about the longer clip Michael, that makes perfect sense. I really like your idea about sanding that area down, good call. I do the same thing as you, I like playing with a knife while I'm watching a video about it. The whole audio/visual aspect is kinda relaxing.

[@nascarracer886]

Thanks for making such great informative videos for lefties! As you know that does limit a lot of choices. I took you advice and have a Doug Ritter mini on Preorder. The other knife a was seriously thinking about was the Civivi Elementum for its office friendliness, and lefty friendly(minus the clip)That's ok as it will most likely sit in the bottom of my pocket! Appreciate all your time making lefty knife facts available on your channel!

[@TheKnifeBeater]

You're very welcome Paul, happy to. I'm sure it won't take too long to get it. I agree about the Elementum, it's a very nice office carry. Unfortunately, everyone else realizes how good it is too. Thanks for watching.

[@elde667]

Well, I'm not a fan of the knife you reviewed BUT I never miss one of your reviews Jay. Your comparisons, comments and down to earth manner are first class. You've caused me to spend a considerable amount of money but I've never regretted one of your recommendations. So thanks for what you do....great to have someone honest and knowledgeable reviewing primarily value and mid-level knives that folks like me can actually afford!

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Wow, thank you. That's one of the nicest compliments I've ever received. You just turned an average day into a great one! Thanks again.

[@Frizzlefry7]

All the work this guy does for the community, it seems I should purchase one for that reason alone.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

That's true, Doug Ritter is very active in the knife world. Thanks for watching Frizzlefry.

[@mr.h8865]

Nice review of the Mini RSK, it is tempting. I always look forward to your knife content, keep up the great work! Thanks for the chance at a Civivi!

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Thank you Mr H, very nice of you to say.

[@williamborland871]

Finally, watching a full post pays off! Appreciate the content (even the ones without GAWs)!

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Lol 😆. Thank you William.

[@franciscojchacon6053]

Just got the full size and it came very very sharp, awaiting a few days to receive the mini

[@w.scottyorr5099]

Howdy Jay, thanks for all your work. I purchased the full sized RSK after watching your video... now I’m thinking I need the mini.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Hey there Scotty, thank you. Yeah, you probably do need that mini, lol. Usually I prefer knives a little larger than this, but it's such a nice little carry size and I can still fit all my fingers on the handle. On top of all that, it's USA made. Thanks for watching.

[@stoneblue1795]

I like this knife a lot. I think the pocket clip from the Bugout is way more size appropriate.

[@scottbenefield3184]

The Hogue Ritter is looking like the all around perfect 👌 edc

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Yeah, that's kinda what I was thinking too. Thanks JP.

[@marymoury595]

Are they gone? I'm here.

[@williame.boylejr.1229]

I like your presentations to pretty short and to the point LOL and very informative without carrying it on and on and on like some do like you very much Bill Boyle

[@TheKnifeBeater]

I appreciate that Bill! I do try not to babble, which is why I edit every video.

[@1964krazyeric]

I am in love with the axis (like) lock knives. You should do a show with as many brands who copy Bench made once their paten ran out. I have Ganzos and The Sog Terminus so far.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

That's a good idea Eric, I like it. Thank you.

[@guillermodiaz1624]

i ordered mine looks good, keep doing these great reviews man.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Thanks so much Guillermo. I hope you like yours.

[@jeffsmith6441]

I'm in on the Elementum! I have the full size RSK and love it so much as soon as I heard about the mini I ordered one. Unfortunately I was a little late to the game so I had to preorder one and am still waiting. I might go ahead and order a clip for it. I can't wait to get it in my hand!

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Thank you Jeff. Sorry to hear you gotta wait on yours, bit it's totally worth it. I'm sure it won't be too long from now. That's a good idea buying the clip now.

[@Oceanashes]

The mini is on my short list. Thanks for the review.

[@quewerty8401]

I have to get one of these. I have been wanting the original forever. Thanks for doing the comparison to the original mini grip. I wanted to make sure the handle was a bit longer on the ritter . As soon as I can scratch of the cash I want to order one.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

You bet Qwerty, happy to. Yeah, $140 is a lot to drop at once, but I think it's worth it. Thanks for watching.

[@majorpain1251]

The Bugout clip is a big improvement. I like the knife a lot. Just usually don't spend over $100 on modern folders. Thank you for the opportunity to win your Civivi Elementum. Great gents knife.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

I hear ya there Steve. Tons of great knives out there under $100 and I personally love finding those. Thanks for watching.

[@michaelmcdonell9492]

Really like the idea of the Bugout clip.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

It really works well that Hogue. Thank you Michael.

[@MJ-km3qz]

Wow! That ending was so cool. I like it! Now I wonder why more channels don’t do this? Very cool Brother ;)

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Thank you Mark. I figured it's least I can do since you spend the time watching my videos.

[@CamboTriton]

Really great review! I want Mini RSK.

[@thebladerunner49]

Great review Jay..nice knife but more interested in that Knife Beater shirt you’re wearing..if you ever make them available I’m all in for one..🔪

[@TheKnifeBeater]

You saw that. I just recently had it made. I would love to get them for everyone, but they're $48 shipped. If you still want one, we could do a Paypal transaction. Just email me if you want to move forward with that. Thanks Jim.

[@keithweldin2007]

Cool knife Jay! I just got my first $100 plus knife , got the manix 2, now I'm in love with all things spyderco

[@TheKnifeBeater]

I hear ya Keith, that Manix 2 can be like a gateway drug. It took me a little while to get past that $100 threshold, so I know the feeling, congrats. You chose a good knife to spend that money on, nice work. Thanks for watching.

[@aaronjueschke9854]

I just ordered mine! I'm a little bummed because they were out of stock, so its a pre-order. Can't wait to get it!

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Yeah, that kinda sucks. Hopefully it won't take too long to get yours though. I don't like having to wait for knives either, but it gives ya something to look forward to. Thanks for watching Aaron.

[@traditionallarry5378]

That Midi is just the size I like,thanks for the review.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

I hear ya Larry, it's a really nice carry size. Thanks for watching.

You're more than welcome. Thanks for watching Cory, I really appreciate it.

[@brianharrington6837]

Hey i really enjoyed your video and im the Is exact person you're describing . It been hard for me to want to spend over a $100 on a knife and I've had my eyes on a few like bugout and para 3 but after watching you video im going to try this hogue mini ritter frist. Thanks

[@hermespadilla]

I would like to see a comparison or vs between the Doug Ritter and the deka.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Okay, sure.

I'm in! Great review of the mini Ritter, Jay. I think I'm gonna try to get my hands on one. Cheers, buddy.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Thank you much David. Once you get it, you'll be glad you did. Yeah, the price stings a little, but it wears off.

[@tomweingart2337]

Haven't had a Civivi yet, but I've heard good things about them! I'm in 👍

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Yeah, lots of great stuff from Civivi. Thank you Tom.

[@nathannettik455]

Great video, I've added the bugout clip to several knives and really enjoy it. Countersink the holes and add flat head screws and it's darn near perfect.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Wow, that's a great idea Nathan. I'm a fan of the Bugout clip too. Thank you for watching.

[@nathannettik455]

Thank you. Just did it with a drill bit and stainless screws from the hardware store, pockets significantly better.

[@dp2826]

I had an elementum. Had to return it. Haven't been able to find one since.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

That sucks, sorry to hear. It's kinda nuts how difficult it is to find in stock. I hope you're eventually able to get your hands on one again. Thanks for watching.

[@kellypainter7625]

Nice video. First time I have seen your channel - subbed. I got my black full size RSK Mk1-G2 (man, that is a mouthful) earlier this week. I was so impressed with it, I pre-ordered the orange mini. My EDC was a black BladeHQ Bugout. This thing will make my Bugout bugout! I think I may swap the pocket clips. The full size knife that I have in hand is fantastic. I was really surprised at how easily it slashes through heavy cardboard. Looking forward to my mini.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Thank you so much Kelly. Welcome to the channel, glad to have ya. That's awesome you were lucky enough to snag one of those black Bugout's, I'm pretty sure they are all gone now. Both sizes of the Hogue are just fantastic knives. I hope your mini finds it's way to you soon because it's torture having to wait for a knife like this to arrive. Once you get it, I'd be interested to hear what you think. Thanks again.

[@kellypainter7625]

@@TheKnifeBeater Oh yeah, I see the blackout bugouts are gone. The knife I have that is most comparable to the RSK Mk1-G2 is the 2013 Shot show special griptilian kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYbCfZKdbZepe7s Somehow, I managed to snag two of those 750. One I have carried a long time and it has seen some hard use. The other is new in the box. Very nice knife. I like the mk1-g2 just a little better in its cutting ability. I like the texture of the Benchmade G10 better. Fortunately, I have both so it isn't a problem :) I put a deep carry clip on the Grip so they look a lot alike.

[@MichaelE.Douroux]

Great review! Can you get the shorter clip in black?

[@garyjacobs2789]

Mine is in post office hands and headed to me . Thanks for video

[@TheKnifeBeater]

You bet Gary, thank you. That's awesome, I hope it gets to you soon.

[@garyjacobs2789]

It's out for delivery today. Hopefully it will be in my mail when I get home

[@mdgleber561]

Thanks for the video! I was debating between this and the mini presidio 2 cf elite. Think I might have to go with the RSK.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Yeah, that is a tough choice. I think you're making the right decision though. I love the new Presidio's, but Hogue's 20CV kinda trumps Benchmade's S30V. Still, not easy to choose. Thanks for watching Gleb.

[@Gman1024]

Very nice coverage Jay. Yay, got some new cardboard, it's the little things in life ya know. Very slicey. I'm going have to ask you the same question I asked Ben over at Blade Banker. You can only have one, full size or mini, what's your pleasure? Thanks for the upload.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Lol, I hear ya. Now that's a great question! Even though with most of my knives, I prefer larger than 3" inch blades, I've been carrying this a lot. The mini is just such a nice carry size. I love all the usable edge on the full size, but I definitely notice it in the pocket more. I gotta go with the mini. Thanks for watching Gman.

[@tehwulf4291]

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Thank you Susan. I'll bet that clip looks really good on there. Wow, I had no idea a satin Bugout clip even existed.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Yeah, the mini Grip is a solid knife. The 2 knives are similar in size, but the Hogue has a slightly longer handle. Other than that, they are pretty close. Thanks for watching Ziyan.

[@caldrenfitzpatrick3308]

Everybody has been coming out with reviews on this knife, want this one so bad, been watchin' all of em!

[@TheKnifeBeater]

I hear ya Caldren, it's a lot of money to spend on one knife. If it's tough to raise the money, a mini Griptilian is a great alternative and it costs a little less. Thanks for watching.

[@davidh0159]

I've liked the Hogue version of this knife since I first saw it. I was disappointed that it was so difficult to get, originally. It's nice that it is easier to get now. I do have a question - with the texturing on the scales, does that tend to grab/shred your pocket under the clip when going in and out of the pocket? Great review, Jay.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Yeah, I know what you mean David. I think they are easier to get now because of all the other color and blade finish versions. Remember that the initial first batch only came in black G10. My pocket hasn't been shredded yet, but I would not be surprised if it eventually does. Thanks for watching David.

[@jimmycricket7946]

Yes it's a pocket shredder. Great knife the only problem I've ever had is some difficulty getting it out of the pocket and that dam clip being a pretty uncomfortable hot spot. However I have yet to switch to a different clip or grind down the scale to give the clip a little more wiggle room for when your firmly gripping the handles. Many people have stated if you make these alterations the ergos improve and it also helps with carrying.

[@pop4803]

Whoa this is cool.what a surprise. Jay, which would you choose this mini risk or mini Presidio? Thanks,harry

[@TheKnifeBeater]

What an excellent and tough question Harry. Well, I guess I know what my next video is gonna be about. I feel so organized now.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Thank you Kevin. So sorry, I haven't tried one yet. I think the blade shape is why I've been a little hesitant, but that could change. All I can say is that I don't regret my purchase of the Ritter Hogue whatsoever.

[@robertschafer1151]

Absolutely love my RSK and the Mini is on its way! Can’t wait to handle it, highly recommend and 10% goes to Knife protection foundation.

[@TheKnifeBeater]

That's awesome you were able to get one. I probably should've mentioned the 10%. Thanks for watching Robert.

[@redactedcanceledcensored6890]

I have never owned an axis/bar lock knife. Is there any of them where the blade is not so easy to be shaken loose? In back locks and liner locks I always set the pivot tension so it's very hard to shake it loose but split-second one-handed operation is still reliable. I don't want the blade opening in my pocket if I run, fall or bump into something. I wonder how the Elementum performs with its somewhat thin hollow ground blade. D2 is tough for its chromium content though. Can one do tip tests with it?

[@TheKnifeBeater]

Good question HR. The SOG Terminus XR is one that's very difficult (if at all) to shake open. Yeah, testing the Elementum's tip strength is possible, but I can't with mine since I'm giving it away, sorry. Thanks for watching.

im so torn between the mini griptilian and this one. i found a sight selling the mini grip with 20cv for less than the hogue but i think i would spend the little extra and buy the hogue if it werent for that blade shape. its to tanto-ish for me.

I now put benchmade in the same category as cold steel and hinderer. Won't say anymore, if you're familiar with the knife world you know what I mean.

[@michaelknott4895]

Hogue is really making an impact on the knife market imo. If they stay the course and keep releasing great designs in 20cv I could see this leading to an upgrade from spyderco and benchmade as well.
