Extrema Ratio pocket knives

Features of an Extrema Ratio pocket knife

Extrema Ratio pocket knives are built to perform. Many models have a blade made from Böhler N690 steel, a steel type known for its good balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance and ease of sharpening. Extrema Ratio often uses aluminium or G10 for the handles. These materials are lightweight, strong and offer plenty of grip, even in wet conditions. The robust constructions and reliable locking mechanisms make these knives suitable for intensive use.

Italian design with tactical roots

Have you ever noticed why so many Extrema Ratio knives have the same colours? This is mainly due to the background of the Italian brand. Many knives have been developed in collaboration with military and police units, putting functionality and tactical use centre stage. That is why many models come in black or desert tan. Desert tan is a colour that suits equipment for dry, sandy environments and combines easily with other tactical gear. Black also has a practical function: this colour reduces reflections and is less conspicuous. In addition, on many models a black coating provides extra protection for the steel against corrosion and wear.

Do you already use an Extrema Ratio fixed knife? Then an Extrema Ratio pocket knife is a logical addition. Where a fixed knife is suitable for intensive tasks, you can quickly reach for a pocket knife for smaller cutting jobs. That way, you will always have the right knife at hand for every situation.
