Solidly constructed and made to fit the compact knife perfectly. On the back is a set of PALS\/MOLLE webbing and strap, with the front also having webbing for mounting a small pouch or other item. A gap in the welt at the base of the sheath allows for free flowing drainage. To comfortably accommodate the thick blade stock the welt is similarly sized.<br \/>\nA strong double press-stud retaining strap wraps the handle and keeps the knife securely in place. you can adjust the position of the retaining strap as it is held in place with a Velcro adjusting system. There is an anti-catch smooth plastic insert backing the sheath to prevent wear and damage to the back of the sheath when sheathing the knife.<br \/>\nWith there not being a specific belt loop, using the MOLLE strap, you can make your own belt loop to fit the size of the belt.<br \/>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n#foogallery-gallery-10687 .fg-image { width: 150px; }\n#foogallery-gallery-10687 {

itself:<\/b><br \/>\nFrom the first view of the satin blade emerging you get drawn into admiring the knife.  The beautifully executed fuller on each side of the blade enhances the lines. Extrema Ratio&#8217;s distinctive grip design provides an index finger groove to give a strong grip. A single bolt holds the rubber grip in place on the full tang, that extends through to a striker and lanyard hole. Sharpening choils &#8211; what is your take? &#8211; well the T4000 C does not have one, so the sharp edge stops just short of the plunge line. Also note a front lanyard hole, allowing you to fit a cord to both the front or rear of the handle.<br \/>\nBeing the compact model, the handle length sits just within the hand (I take XL size gloves).<br \/>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n#foogallery-gallery-10701 .fg-image { width: 150px; }\n#foogallery-gallery-10701 { --fg-gutter: 10px; }<\/style>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"foogallery

There is a practicality of having an almost chisel-like tip and what I refer to as the secondary point (where the tip and main edge meet) for various cuts instead of using the actual tip of the knife.<br \/>\nThe elegant lines are simply a pleasure to look at as well as to use, and being the compact knife class from Extrema Ratio this is a really useful day to day blade. Something you are more likely to pick up and use, as it is very practical.<\/p>\n<p>I knew after measuring the factor edge I would want to re-profile the edge bevel, 25DPS is too wide\/heavy for a small knife, even 20DPS would be more than I want. But before doing this, with the sharpness measuring a respectable 281 BESS average I wanted to see how it fared. It would not shave arm hair with this edge, however&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Factory edge put to some minor fire prep tasks. The wood here is fully seasoned so much harder than any green wood.

As always, putting your own edge on a knife makes all the difference, and now it sings along shaving and slicing ferociously.<\/p>\n<p>Extrema Ratio are good at Tantos, and this is one of their best. The thinned down blade thickness with full flat grind give it great slicing power, yet the blade still starts at 4.1mm at the spine, so is plenty strong for heavy use.
