Extrema Ratio knives are part of the equipment of many special military units in Italy, as well as police and rescue services. Each model is developed very carefully and undergoes a series of strict tests before being launched into production. The company collaborates with the University of Perugia, where scientists conduct a number of studies, determining the ergonomics of Extrema Ratio products and methods for their improvement. Both Extrema Ratio tactical knives and utility knives are distinguished by impeccable quality. Most knives are made from Austrian N690 steel. Extrema Ratio uses Böhler N690 due to its reliability and predictability. This steel is known for its increased content of molybdenum and cobalt and is characterized by high corrosion resistance. Thanks to this, N690 steel has increased strength and resists impact loads well, which is especially important for tactical use.
