The Ontario RAT-2 plain edge is the baby brother of the RAT-1. A nice, solid EDC pocket knife, for an exceptional price. 
 This knife has amazed many knife enthusiasts.


Let's start with the blade. Ontario has used AUS-8 steel - a Japanese stainless steel that retains its sharpness well, perfect for regular use. It's also easy to sharpen, which is very practical if you use the knife often. The blade has a classic drop point shape. This is a very common blade shape that you can use for almost all daily tasks. It's pointed enough for packaging, has enough belly to cut things on a flat surface, and a flat part for peeling an apple.


The blade is quite thick, which is one of the reasons why this knife is somewhat heavier than comparable knives. The blade is also perfectly centred, and finished with a black coating. This coating helps to prevent corrosion and reflections. In time, though, even a coating will wear out.


The pocket knife is easy to open with the double thumb stud. Once opened, the blade is locked in place by a solid liner lock. This means the pocket knife will never close unintentionally during use. The top of the blade has ridges for additional thumb grip.


The pocket clip can be attached in four different positions. Above, below, left, right. There are attachment holes on each side. So you can carry the knife tip-up, tip-down, left-handed or right-handed. You get to decide where you want the pocket clip.


The handle of the RAT-2 is made from nylon. It feels solid and suits the knife well. The handle is smooth enough to never damage your pocket. Its texture offers enough grip for a firm hold. The handle is nicely shaped and feels great in hand. It also features a lanyard eye.


With the Ontario RAT-2, you're not getting a knife that will last a lifetime. What you are getting, though, is a solid tool for an amazing price. And yet, the knife doesn't feel cheap. The perfect companion to take with you day-to-day.

Esperaba mucho más de esta navaja, es muy débil, no merece la pena, apenas sirve para preparar comida, está muy lejos de ser una buena herramienta, lo siento mucho pero es una fama infundada.

De Ontario Rat, die stond al een tijdje op mijn lijstje. Natuurlijk een All American classic.  Terecht overigens want een goed doordacht ontwerp, een foutloze afwerking met bewezen materialen en een betrouwbaar stukje staal.

In dit geval gaat het om de Rat II. Die is een stukje kleiner en lichter dan de Rat I en daarmee geschikter als EDC. Het lemmet is voor alle klussen geschikt van foodprep tot tactical. Het ideale mes voor de niet liefhebber die gewoon 1 goed mes wil hebben.

En de liefhebber MOET er gewoon 1 hebben in zijn collectie.

It's a RAT-2
It's extremely good value.
Known to be good, and it is.
Really coarse factory grind but I'm fine with it

A wonderful tool for EDC and hard work, wherever needed. Well known for its good performance and highly advised for a reason!

Un très bon couteau.
Je le porte sur moi tous les jours. léger, discret, et un excellent tranchant.
Le meilleur rapport qualité prix pour un couteau de marque.

General information

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

value_blade_length_edge

The length of the cutting edge is measured from the tip to the start of the edge. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Cutting edge length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_closed_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.
