Ontario RAT I D2 Satin

Liked this knife so much I bought another one.

Just received my rat 1 and have to say I'm very impressed with it.love the weight the fit and finish and smooth opening action.only down side is we pay a bit more for these in the UK.overall highly recommend

If you need a knife to do the job. This is the right knife. Good value for money. The steel holds its edge very well. Easy to sharpen. At this price, I don't know what could be better. I hope that the 2023 model will be on sale soon. With red G10 and S35VN blade.

Amazing service from Heinnie, had a call from Marie to change couriers. The knife is lovely, very smooth opening & closing action. Very well put together, nothing feels loose at all. The blade is very nice and sharp, and comes with a thin coating of oil to protect the D2 blade.

Another fine knife from Heinnie Haynes. Definitely a handful of sturdy cutting power. Excellent fit and finish and really great ergonomics. Smooth easy opening and closing. I chose the D2 version as it should stay sharp about twice as long as the AUS8 version. There should be no problem with corrosion as I look after all my knives properly. Sharpening will also be straightforward, in spite of D2s reputation. I have decades of experience using every type of sharpener and a DMT diamond sharpener will make short work of any loss of slicing ability. The full flat grind makes the knife an excellent slicer. My only minor gripe is that the cutting edge isn't quite as long as one would like for such a large knife. Definitely a lot of knife for the money. My S30V knives don't get enough sustained use to justify the extra price and miniscule difference in performance over D2. This knife will definitely get plenty of use in the woods and on the hills and as a great picnic tool. Just a pity I can't carry it around locally as an EDC. Great knife! Thanks!

This is my 4th RAT, one RAT 2 D2 in my pocket now perfect size. Had 2 RAT 1 in AUS8 really nice fit in the hand both given to friends how adored them. This one in D2 is mine no one is getting this PERFECT as is HH

Excellent knife and the D2 upgrade really is just that. Love this thing so much I bought another, can't say more than that.

Excellent knife, great ergonomics, very good value. Once sharpened up it is all I need .

Any one looking for 2 knives one as light EDC to slip in your pocket and a second for out door use, cooking, bushcraft etc with a budget of around 100 quid can't go wrong with theses two knives. The larger of the two the RAT 1 feels so good nice weight distribution sits in both hand and pocket well, the smaller knife just as good, light, unobtrusive, both D2 steel, good clip and scales, well put together.
