As an EDC, the Rat 2 is a sharp, comfortable, fast, easy to pocket knife. The handle and blade are impeccable. I love the Coyote Brown scales against the plain blade. What a value! Perhaps I should simply say I have bought 6 of these for myself, my son, and friends, and I am not one to waste money.The blade release assist is great for arthritic fingers. Fastest of any knife I own.
Ontario RAT Model 2 Folding 3.0" Satin Plain Blade, Coyote Brown Nylon Handles
I have several more expensive knives (tactical folders) even have the Rat 1, I wanted something smaller and something if lost would not pi$$ me off much. What I found with the Rat 2 is for $35.00 I purchased a well made knife, very sharp, and is in my pocket as I write this. If I had to find any fault at all with the knife I would say the handle could use a rougher surface to prevent slipping in the hand. Would I recommend this knife to others? You bet! Would I recommend Knifecenter.com? You bet I purchase most my knifes from them.Good quick service!

This is the second RAT2 that I have bought, after being impressed by the first. I checked all of the pro's and zero cons. This knife meets our state laws for blade length. It arrived razor sharp and has kept iter s edge well. I started out just adding it to my EDC rotation but it quickly has become number 1. The other two contenders are Buck 112 Ranger Slim and a KaBar Dozier. These are great knives also, and I'm sure they'll be carried again. This knife has a super fast opening with just using the thumb stud, that I think it rivals even the assisted openings that I own. Overall I rate the RAT2.

I use the rat 2 just about every day as my edc knife. It holds a good edge and feels good in the pocket very light. I don't push it to hard but the lock up is very tight and it has no play at all. The only thing I sometimes have a problem with is quickly deploying the knife.
