RAT 1 Folder | Ontario Knife

Canada's Source for Proven Folding Blades

Reliable EDC with Field-Tested Performance

The RAT 1 Folder by Ontario Knife Company is a benchmark in affordable, hard-use folding knives. Built around a full flat taper AUS-8 stainless steel blade, it delivers solid edge retention, easy maintenance, and versatile cutting power for daily carry, camp tasks, and field use.

Purpose-Built for Control and Durability

With a 3.5-inch satin-finished blade and 0.115-inch thickness, the RAT 1 offers a balanced profile for slicing, carving, and utility work. The black Nylon 6 handle provides a secure grip with minimal weight, while the liner lock and thumbstud deployment ensure fast, confident access. Torx hardware allows easy disassembly and maintenance.

Field-Ready Features for Everyday Carry

Weighing 136 g (0.3 lbs) and measuring 8.5 inches open, the RAT 1 folds down to a compact 5 inches for pocket or pack carry. The ergonomic handle suits extended use, and the full flat grind excels at food prep, cordage, and woodwork. Made in Taiwan to OKC’s field standards, it’s a trusted tool for tradespeople, campers, and gear users who value performance over flash.
