In June 2006, the “185° Rgt. Ricognizione e Acquisizione Obiettivi” (Target Acquisition Regiment) airborne “FOLGORE” (185° RAO) entrusted to Extrema Ratio the development of a unique knife fitting the unit’s specific operational duties. This resulted in the RAO: not an oversized folder as much as a compact survival & field knife, with a heavy and dependable blade. Its very reliable locking system, assisted by an extra safety device, effectively turns this folder into a fixed blade knife. The opening and closing is to be performed with both hands in order to minimize the risk of self-inflicted injuries, as the blade, because of its weight, is a veritable guillotine. The extra safe device is a steel pin to be hand-screwed through two holes by the guard section of the massive Anticorodal aluminum handle – its presence between blade and hand also acting as a great psychological boon. The sheath is an essential part of this weapon system: it holds a diamond-plate sharpener and enables user to carry the knife either in open position, held in place by a cord and two clips, or closed, inside the front pocket. The sheath can be attached to tactical vests or common belts, being MOLLE system-compliant.

Extrema Ratio knives are a part of equipment of many special military units of Italy, the police and rescue services. Each model is developed very carefully and undergoes a series of rigorous tests before it is put into production. Extrema Ratio cooperates with the University of Perugia, where scientists conduct a number of studies determining the ergonomics of Extrema Ratio products and methods for improving it. The office of Extrema Ratio is located in Prato, Italy. Both Extreme Ratio tactical knives and EDC knives are distinguished by impeccable quality. Most knives are made of Austrian steel N690, which is famous for its high content of molybdenum and cobalt and is highly corrosion resistant. Due to this, N690 steel has increased strength and resists shock loads well. The most popular Extrema Ratio knives are Fulcrum, Col Moschin, RAO, Adra and others. Extrema Ratio also produces several lines of tactical folding knives: BF (basic folder), MF (medium folder), BD4, BD2 series and other knives. In our store you can buy Extrema Ratio tactical knives, as well as folding and EDC knives of this brand. MyGoodKnife is the official distributor of Extrema Ratio.
