Its textured black nylon 6 handle with an open-built steel linerlock frame ensures durability and comfort, while the 4-way reversible pocket clip offers versatile carry options. Weighing just 2.8 ounces, this knife balances lightweight portability with dependable performance, making it a top choice for professionals seeking reliable, stylish utility on the go. ## Description If you like the Ontario RAT Model 1, but want something a little less bulky, then you'll love the Model 2. The RAT Model II is based on the popular Model I, it's smaller, but retains the same great shape and performance of the original. This knife is designed for comfort and performance with an index finger groove on the handle to keep your hand where it should be and jimping on the spine of the blade for controlled cutting. The handle features textured black nylon 6 scales with an open-built steel linerlock frame. The AUS-8 stainless steel drop point blade has a satin finish and a plain cutting edge. The RAT Model 2 is fully ambidextrous with dual thumb studs and a 4-way reversible pocket clip. Review: Great overall knife for the price - Great companion for the RAT 1 that has been my daily carry for years. A good quality knife for someone who is not chasing the latest and greatest in knife steels. Great ergonomics, comfortable in the hand, holds a decent edge and sharpens easily. Blade shape has been great for all the tasks that I have put it to from food prep to on the job use. Review: Excellent budget EDC knife - I've heard many good things about the Ontario RAT and RAT II knives over the years, and the reviews were very favorable, so I decided I'd get one to add to my collection. This is probably the cheapest knife I have in my collection, but the quality is still really good for a sub $30 knife. I was impressed by how smooth the blade deployment was considering this knife has no assist in it. In fact, it opens up just as smoothly as my assisted Kershaw Blur. I really wanted a good quality knife that didn't break the bank and was perfect for those occasions where you might not want to have a high value knife on you, especially if there is a chance it might get lost. Plus, this knife is pretty light weight at 2.7 oz. The closest knife I have to this weight is my Spyderco Cat G-10, which weights 2.5 ounces, but is also shorter and wider where the RAT II is longer and skinnier. Some people say that the handle has too much of a plastic feel and isn't grippy enough, but I'd have to disagree. Yes, the handle is not G-10 and it's not as grippy as G-10, but it doesn't feel like smooth plastic either. It has some grip to it; not much, but it's adequate. The blade came pretty sharp too. There's only a couple of minor knocks I have for this knife. First, the satin finish on the blade is a magnet for finger prints and oils, so you may find yourself wiping it down a good bit. Second, the pocket clip was so tight that I couldn't even get it to latch on to the pocket on my cargo pants. I haven't tried it on regular denim jeans yet, but I'm hoping it will fit better on those. If we're going solely on a "good, better, best" scale here, I'd put this knife in the good category, mostly due to the AUS-8 steel. The fit and finish is good and I love how light weight it feels. This was a great buy at $27 and I'm amazed you can get this much quality for that price. If I lost this knife, I could easily get another one without breaking the bank. If you are on a budget for a good knife or you just want to have a backup to keep in the car or something, I'd highly recommend this knife. ## Features - secure: the ambidextrous handle features textured black nylon 6 scales with an open-built steel linerlock frame - comfortable: the rat-2 knife is a handheld size designed for comfort and performance making it ideal for everyday carry - dependable: quick and easy access with dual thumb studs and a 4-way reversible pocket clip - "durable: the rat-2 comes equipped with a 3" plain edge blade made of reliable aus-8 stainless steel as well as a textured nylon handle" - "convenient size: the 4. 1" closed length handheld size is ideal for every day carry and fits in the hand and pocket comfortably" - unique: features an off-set blade from the handle, which creates a unique look rarely seen in knives and distinguishes it from the rest - "dimensions: blade thickness: 0. 095"; blade grind: full flat taper; blade finish: satin; blade color: silver; blade material: aus-8 stainless steel; blade length: 3", closed length: 4. 1" (10. 4 cm); weight: 2. 8 oz." - the handle features textured black nylon 6 scales with an open-built steel linerlock frame - this knife is designed for comfort and performance - ambidextrous with dual thumb studs and a 4-way reversible pocket cli - The handle features textured black nylon 6 scales with an open-built steel linerlock frame - This knife is designed for comfort and performance ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00BBPAOCW | | Age Range (Description) | Adult | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #54,411 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #53 in Folding Hunting Knives | | Blade Edge | Straight | | Blade Length | 3 inches | | Blade Material | Stainless Steel | | Blade Shape | Drop Point | | Blade Type | Drop Point | | Brand | Ontario Knife Company | | Brand Name | Ontario Knife Company | | Color | Black | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 2,861 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00071721088608 | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Handle Material | Nylon | | Included Components | OKC RAT II SP-Black Handle 7in Blade Folding Knife | | Item Length | 8 inches | | Item Shape | folding knife with drop-point blade | | Item Type Name | fixed blade,hunting knife,outdoor,camping | | Item Weight | 3.2 ounces | | Manufacturer | Ontario Knife Company | | Model Name | ON8860 | | Model Number | 8860 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Orientation | ambidextrous | | Part Number | 8860 | | Power Source | AC/DC | | Product Care Instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Recommended Uses For Product | Camping | | Reusability | Reusable | | Size | 3" | | Special Feature | Water-Resistant | | Special Features | Water-Resistant | | Style | Modern | | Theme | Outdoor Adventure | | UPC | 071721088608 | | Unit Count | 1 Ounce | | Warranty Description | 1 yr limited | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Blade Material:** Stainless Steel - **Brand:** Ontario Knife Company - **Color:** Black - **Handle Material:** Nylon - **Included Components:** OKC RAT II SP-Black Handle 7in Blade Folding Knife - **Model Name:** ON8860 - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Camping - **Special Feature:** Water-Resistant - **Style:** Modern ## Images ![RAT-2 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41xwn0YCT6L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great overall knife for the price *by D***X on May 21, 2026* Great companion for the RAT 1 that has been my daily carry for years.

I have a fairly large collection, with my interest being mainly in custom knives. But I'm pretty abusive to my work knife and can't get myself to use an expensive blade for metal on metal cutting, prying, other things knives aren't designed to do, not to mention I occasionally lose them. Enter the Rat II. It's a great knife at a great price point. The one handed opening action is excellent out of the box. The scales have a great textured secure grip. The smaller size is plenty big for everything I throw at it but doesn't freak people out when I flick it open. And it's easy to sharpen and easily takes a good working edge with the Worksharp pocket sharpener I keep in my toolbox. In fact, I'm writing this review of my second Rat II as I lost my original one that I had been carrying for a long time. As soon as I realized it wasn't in my pocket I ordered a replacement as, for me, this is the perfect work blade. The only MINOR gripe I have is that it comes with the pocket clip set for tip down carry. It's reversible as long as you have a T6 mini torx bit and simple enough to change, I just don't know many people that prefer that carry style. I highly recommend this affordable little knife. ## Frequently Bought Together - Ontario Knife Company Rat II, Satin AUS-8 Stainless Steel Drop-Point Blade Folding Pocket Knife, Black Nylon Handle Liner Lock Knife, Everyday Carry Knife – ON8860 - Ontario Knife Company 8848 Rat I Folding Knife - EDC Knife (Black) - Ontario Knife Company Rat I Folding Pocket Knife, Satin AUS-8 Stainless Steel Drop Point Blade, Foliage Green Nylon Handle Liner Lock Knife, Everyday Carry Knife – ON8848FG --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/2462214-rat-2](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/2462214-rat-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-09-13*
