The 'Ratel'

The 'Ratel' - a general purpose EDC or hunting knife. On this design I have gone back to basics to provide a compact and lightweight workhorse for everyday or in the field. The 4" blade is big enough for most tasks and with a drop point is excellent for dressing game. At 3mm thick at the spine (just under 1/8") it is light-weight, has a fine geometry and cuts superbly. The handle scales are secured with two Corby bolts and it has a useful lanyard loop at the back. A practical tool with a functional finger guard, sharpening notch and jimping on the spine. Like it's namesake, the 'Ratel' (pronounced Rah-tel) or Honey Badger is a compact, tough, no nonsense tool that will serve you well for many years.

Available in carbon, high-alloy or stainless steel with various finishes (and Hamons with carbon steel). Handles in exotic hardwood or Micarta with G10 or fibre liners and Nickel SIlver, stainless steel or brass Corby bolt/lanyard tube. Fitted sheaths in Kydex (with TekLok clip) or leather.
