Rat II Folder Coyote Brown

The Ontario Rat 2 is the perfect size and weight for EDC. Smaller then the Rat 1, the Rat 2 still provides a full four-finger grip and has very good ergonomics. This is a well-designed, high quality, sturdy knife that feels really good in the hand. Came super sharp right out of the box. The quality you receive at this price point can't be matched by many other folding knives on the market. After buying this I purchased several more as gifts for family members and friends. Highly recommended. (One final note: Some reviewers have trashed this knife because it's not USA-made. If you must have a USA-made knife, then don't buy this one. But if you want one of the best deals in a high-quality folder on the market today, don't pass this excellent knife up.)

I've had this knife for a month now and I absolutely love it. The factory edge is nice and sharp right out of the box. Flicking the knife open is tricky at first, but once you get used to it, it's super fast and smooth, almost feels spring assisted. It's very comfortable to hold and use as well. Part of me wishes Ontario made a size between the RAT II and I, as this knife seems a tad smaller than my previous EDC's and the RAT I looks quite large from the video reviews I've seen, but it's certainly low profile and always finds itself on my pocket. It fits perfectly in that miniature pocket within the full size front pocket on my jeans, which is rather handy, as the last few knives I've had have worn holes in my back jeans pocket. Overall, if you're looking for a nigh Benchmade quality EDC at a fraction of the cost, this is the knife for you.

I have the Rat 1 and now the Rat 2. I thought the Rat 1 was a good size but the Rat 2 is a perfect size. They are both well made pocket knives. Much higher quality than their price point indicates. I personally avoid the black coated blades because of the tendency for them to show wear more. I preferred a non serrated blade as well because of the external sharpening challenge.

Good looking knife, feels good in the hand. Firm lockup, sharp, sharp, sharp. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is, it doesn't flick open like my Kershaw blades do. If I try to flick it open with my thumb I'm afraid I'll cut myself so I use two handed opening. Otherwise It's a good knife for the money.

I see on forums that the Ontario RAT today is not of as a high a quality as the one from a few years ago. I don’t know whether that is true, but this is a high quality knife consistent with the asking price. I am very happy with its ability to be sharpened and to hold an edge.

Excellent budget knife. Compact, tough, comfortable.

EDIT 12/9/17 This knife is pretty much my exclusive edc now. It is the AK47 of pocket knives; extremely easy to maintain (sharpen), works every time without question, and is CHEAP for the quality you get. It's also very light. I use my knife a good amount and I touch it up once, maybe twice a week. When I say touch up, I mean a few (3-4 per side) strokes on a fine stone and a swipe or two on a strop and it's back to razor sharp. I have even used my leather belt to realign the edge like a strop. This is a little subjective I guess, but I prefer a more malleable steel like AUS-8 every day--for my needs at least. It will not chip as readily when I abuse it. For example, I stripped insulation off copper wire with it and the edge came back no problem. The flipside of that is that it requires frequent sharpening. I have found if you touch up the blade for a couple minutes once or twice a week then it's fine. If you use the knife all day every day then it will be dull on you in no time. In that case you should be carrying a box cutter at work lol. 35 bucks man, can't beat it. ---END EDIT---- I like it a lot for the money. Darn good knife for $35 bucks. I'm a collector and this will see less work than my work knife admittedly. However it's going to be a great knife. I plan on fishing with it etc.

This knife is excellent in almost every way. The right size, great action, good design, sharp and holds an edge pretty well. My only complaint is the pocket clip. It should allow for deeper carry in the pocket. About 3/4 of an inch stick out of the pocket with this clip. Still, I highly recommend this knife.

mycket skarp. utmärkt kvalitet

ラット1に比べると、縮尺の分、多少無理が出ている事をのぞけば普通に使えます。 後は好みの問題です。ＥＤＣには十分に使えるし可愛いデス

Los materiales son buenos para un cuchillo de este precio y el diseño está muy bien. Es ligero y compacto. La hoja es perfecta para uso "EDC", para llevarlo siempre encima: para abrir paquetes, para pelar fruta, para comer de tupper... es perfecta. La única pega que le encuentro es que la apertura me parece incómoda y peligrosa: si se abre con el pulgar usando el pivote que tiene a tal efecto, durante la apertura el dedo queda demasiado cerca del filo para mi gusto. Esto es por lo compacto que es el cuchillo sobre todo. En este sentido un Spyderco mucho más ancho y con un gran agujero es mil veces más cómodo y seguro de abrir. Sin embargo, será más caro y ocupará más espacio el Spyderco. Teniendo en cuenta este pequeño detalle (hay que abrirlo con cuidado y de forma muy consciente) por lo demás la Onterio Rat 2 es una gran navaja. (Ojo que esta es la 2, la pequeña, con mis manazas el dedo meñique se queda casi sin apoyo. Si queréis la grande, la Ontario Rat 1, tenéis que seguir buscando. En Amazon también la tienen pero NO es esta.)

Das Messer liegt bei einer Handschuh-Größe zehn ausreichend in der Hand. Dass Modell eins würde satt in der Hand liegen. Dafür hat dieses Modell eine angemessene Größe, um es sicher in der Tasche zu tragen. Und sieben Zentimeter Klinge sind ausreichend für alle Schneidarbeiten. Die Mulde für den Zeigefinger und der erhöhte Klingenrücken machen dieses Messer sehr sicher. Der Stahl ist ausreichend standfest und lässt sich leicht schärfen. Ein sehr gutes Gebrauchsmesser, ohne gleich wie Rambo zu wirken. Wer "batonen" will nimmt sich einfach noch die kleine X5 Axt von Fiskars mit und hat damit ein Set, dass unspektakulär daher kommt aber zweckdienlicher ist als jedes Bowie-Knife. Denn so ein Ast muss erst mal in Stücke gehackt werden, bevor man so toll "batonen" kann. Das macht man mit der kleinen Axt un das handliche Messer bleibt sauber und die Klinge scharf. Aber: NICHT 42a konform, wenn man es in der Stadt bei sich trägt, weil Einhandöffnung und Verriegelung. Ich hoffe, ich konnte helfen.

Correcto en todo
