Ontario Knife Company

Randall's Adventure Training has been designing, marketing, and selling survival and military-style knives since their first survival courses in the Amazon Jungle of Peru. One of their first designs was the RTAK which was built by Newt Livesay's Wicked Knife Company before Ontario Knife Company produced the design. ESEE also produced and sold the RAT skinning/survival knife made by John Greco and the RAT Laser Strike knife made by TOPS (ESEE has since re-introduced the Laser Strike as an ESEE knife). Randall's Adventure Training also designed the following knives for Ontario Knife Company: RTAK II, TAK, RAT-7, RAT-5, RAT-3, Model 1 folder and the Model 2 folder. 

The Ontario RAT Model 2 from Randall's Adventure Training is a scaled down of the wildly popular RAT-1. It's another folding EDC knife that can withstand hard use and abuse associated with hunting or survival tasks. For the money, there might not be a better knife on the market that can match the performance of Ontario Knife Company's RAT Model 2. It features an ergonomic handle with smooth action and rock-solid lockup. The four-position pocket clip allows the user to customize their carry method to their liking. We absolutely love the off-set blade from the handle, which gives this knife a rare and unique look that distinguishes this knife from all the rest. If you are looking to add a new knife to your EDC rotation (or you think it would make a great fit for a survivalist, hunter, backpacker, or friend), rest assured you're making the right choice when you go with an Ontario RAT Model 2. This RAT 2 features a tough blade made from D2, an air hardened tool steel with high wear and abrasion resistant properties.

Ontario Rat Model 2
I bought this a while back and it is the first Ontario Rat 2 that I have purchased. This particular coloration looks so classy and unnoticeable to carry, that I carry it for more formal occasions. It came as sharp as sharp can be! The handle is user friendly. I have assisted open knives, but with just a flick of my thumb on the stud and the RAT snaps as quickly as the assisted. There is no play on the blade, and blade well centered. I know it will stay sharp forever it is D2 A 3” this knife is legal in my state and the neighboring states I visit.Great price for a great knife.
