Ontario Knife Company RAT II Linerlock Desert Tan D2

The Ontario Rat model I or II are must haves for anyone who enjoys pocket knifes.This is the smaller version which is great for everyday carry. Never had any issues with sharpness with the D2 blade. The pocket clip slides in and out of your pocket no problem, never had any issue with it messing up my pocket edges. The pocket clip is also 4 way position able which is a nice feature for lefties.Also for lefties the thumbstuds are identical on both sides of the blade unlike the ESEE equivalents which makes opening it so much better!I'll emphasize again just how small this is, especially when compared side-by-side with the model I, whether that be a good thing or a bad thing is up to you!

Have many knives and carry this daily. It replaces my rat II because it is d2 steel. and the same profile (of course). The $20 rat II has been a great EDC but this d2 retains a edge longer and I use my knives frequently. However even the lesser steel rats do a relatively good job of holding an edge. I have the Rat I and II and like the profile and the lesser bulk in my pocket over most of my other knives including my spyderco.

It was stiff the first few days. After a few hundred times opening the action gets way faster. D2 steel, Nylon handle, great edc. Very sharp out of the box. Highly recommended

I was blown away with how silky smooth the action is on this knife. Got is as a gift and I couldn't stop playing with it before I wrapped it. It came razor sharp from the factory and is probably one of the best knives you can get dollar for dollar. That being said, the handle is a little bit slippery, and the blade coating is sure to get scraped off with hard use.

It’s really hard to believe this was only $40.00! G10 scales, exceptional fit and finish and sharp as a scalpel! The upgrade steel is nice too. Bought the RAT 1 version as well.
