I’ve had him since he’s been about 6 weeks old, and he is about 6 years now. I’ve always called him a Russian blue, but I’ve found that he also favors a Korat, as well. Or even a Blue Domestic Shorthair! I’d just like to hear the opinions that anyone would like to share! Thanks!

More of a Korat lookalike than a Russian Blue lookalike; because Russian Blues have a more slender body. Without a DNA test, it's impossible to know if he actually has any Korat influence, so he'd be called a blue Domestic Shorthair. Blue cats of indeterminate breed can also be called Maltese cats.
Not a RB to me - especially body shape and profile. I find this link a good quick reference for the basics. Lovely coat and colour

He's pretty. I wouldn't say Russian Blue. Maybe more Korat.
