RAT I

The Ontario Knife Co. RAT I is a full-size, budget-friendly folding knife designed by Randall’s Adventure & Training and built for general-purpose utility, field use, and everyday carry. It features a 3.5-inch drop point blade made from D2 steel. The blade is typically paired with a full-flat grind that keeps cutting performance efficient across a wide range of tasks. The handle uses durable nylon over stainless liners, creating a rigid, open-back construction that balances strength with easy cleaning. A liner lock secures the blade, and ambidextrous thumb studs allow straightforward one-handed deployment. At roughly 8.5 inches overall, it is on the larger side for EDC, but it’s widely regarded as a straightforward, durable “workhorse” folder built for utility rather than refinement or premium materials.
