Congratulations 🎊 The Rat 1& 2 getting the love and recognition they deserve
Becoming one of the real sleeper brands, underappreciated for sure! And great to see the return of Matt, always love his passion. Nice video
Those back locks are sweet! Looks like a great alternative to the discontinued Buck slim select series.
Those are the best bug out knife I’ve seen, get 6 and stash them everywhere.
Look up the accu sharp ParaForce. It under 10 bucks under 2oz
@@TismFishing Yep... Put one of those and a mora companion is every glove box and pack you have.
Honestly might even be better as these have steel liners added in, instead of just the nylon handles.
OKC has been on their game the last couple of years and 2023 seems to be no different. Keep that USA OKC train chugging! Keep experimenting and listening to what the consumers want!
Ontario is one of the only knife companies that just doesn't fail to impress. Love their knives, always have great fit and finish even with their more budget friendly knives.
I would definitely disagree. What have they done in the last 5 years that was unique, especially creative, or groundbreaking? Ooo, an upgrade on the RAT, a 30 year old knife! Yay, a buck 110 clone in grivory and budget steel! Whoo hoo, More fixed blades that mimic old military designs and that look exactly like all your other fixed blades! So innovative! Oh yeah, can't forget the made in china cordura sheaths too, love those!
@@Pharto_Stinkus Sometimes it's not about innovation and new gimmicks, they make great knives at great prices and they do what they know best. You see other knife companies like benchmade releasing an ultra thin titanium m390 knife for over half a K, spyderco releasing a million sprint runs etc. But Ontario do what they do best. Sure it's simpler and less innovative compared to other companies, but their knives are still great quality.
I'd take consistency over gimmicks and trend pleasing all day long. Don't care if knives are made in China, Japan, America etc. As long as a knife is of good quality who cares where it's made
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. They just keep it simple and they're a mile ahead of CRKT with their 50 dollar 8cr knives and benchmade charging 250+ for s35vn
they make good knives but the fit and finish isn't very good.
@@Joshuaskehan-mk8cj you miss the price on that, is changing the blade steel worth 100 bucks? It was popular because of the budget price, it was good value. I will not pay 135 for a rat.
SWEET!!!! OKC is bringing the heat with the S35VN RAT. Everyone and their brother makes scales and such for the RAT models. Lots of opportunities for modding.
Don't forget the G10 scales - that's long overdue and hope it makes its way to the budget RATs. Aftermarket micarta scales got my old AUS-8 model 1 back into rotation.
That RAT is going to be a must have for me... Love the S35VN steel
how does S35vn hold up vs S45vn?
@@brandonbishop1529 I don't have any S45VN blades but from what I can see is the S45vn is better corrosive resistant with similar edge retention. My favorite so far is S30v, S35vn and I'm sure when I get an S45vn I will love it too.
Super excited to see MagnaCut steel being utilized more. I've been seeing more companies really starting to use it more and thats great! Im also impressed with Ontarios $15 folder. Pretty uncommon to see new knives being shown off at the show that are going to be that cheap, but not look that cheap. Well done! Ps. Lovin that Seax knife and shape!
So far, Ontario is impressing me.
Taking one of the nicest folder designs and constructing it with better materials is a no brainer. I’m in.
What about a steel upgrade for the RAT II? I prefer the smaller size RAT.
Those $15 backlocks remind me of the Kabar Dozier line. Pretty sweet for the price.
Totally agree man. I saw some of the Dozier when he was showing it and talking. I think the handle also lends itsself to the Dozier vibes also.
I have a bugout and some Spydercos, but the Dozier is one of my all time favorites. I just love a good true budget knife. I have all three of these on pre order now. I'm liking that it's full torx construction and has a wire clip.
I also thought Dozier, a knife I love. I’m getting one
Love Ontario products--great quality at great prices.
OKC is always great, they realise what they are, they stay true to that, keep pricing fair and always has a great presenter aswell.
Totally awesome lineup. Innovative, creative and reasonable. Gotta love these guys. My RAT II is my go-to favorite of all time.
That little wharnie frame lock is interesting, and the Seax is HOT
Always great quality at great prices..Benchmade needs to take a page from their book
DCA, really wish you would ask all these manufacturers what hrc they are running their Magnacut at. Its so crucial to this steels performance. As someone who got one of the first batch Deka's that was run soft, that steel is absolutely worthless unless it is run over 63 hrc.
Do you know if Hogue fixed their issues with the Magnacut? The Deka is on my "want" list but I had heard about the softness issue and can't really find anything where they addressed it. I even emailed the company asking but got nothing back. If that has been fixed and they come out with a version with G10 scales I'll be buying one. Thanks.
@@John-tx1wk Yes, they increased the hrc of their heat treat by 2. The problem is with current stock on shelves there's no way to know if its an old or new batch. I plan to wait a while longer and will try another one. The 1st one was so bad I wasn't all that hurt when I lost it a few days after getting it lol. I cut a few pieces of rope with it and it got so dull it wouldn't cut anything
Magnacut is still a great steel even when run under 63 as long as it's done well.
@@Freakmaster480 If its under 63hrc, then its not done well.
@@arrowheadguys7637 From the mouth of the man himself.
m.th-cam.com/video/a5lzf8LA03o/w-d-xo.html
TLDW: as long as they've stuck within spec the steel isn't wrong or bad, it just went a different direction than what you wanted. Magnacut can be heat treat anywhere between 60-65 and still fall within the reccomended range even if 62-63 is the reccomended for a general use knife.
Wow Rat in s35vn? Iam getting one for sure!
Thank-you DCA, and thank-you Ontario Knife Company
I really like the new Camp Plus knives. I use the camp plus chefs knife all the time and it works great. An edc version in 440c with torx construction for $15 is really interesting. It seems like a great option for a knife to store in a car/truck console as a backup too.
I've never owned an Ontario before but I think I'm in love with that CF100, time to take a dive into their product line.
Rat 1 , perfect EDC, love it.
I own a Rat 2 and absolutely love it. Dive in, the water's fine!
Thx for your great SS coverage. Workin hard and it shows.
Gonna get LOTS of those camp folders!
Great showing from Ontario.
Nice work OKC. Thank you for the steel upgrades.
Hmm nice lineup for this year, may have to give a few of these a run!
Great conversation.
love seeing the upgraded RAT and the budget friendly edc folders
My favorite knife company. Definitely a good year with more work knives and fun blades!
I am so stoked for new Rat1! I’m not that not all the different steels, but I do like this one!!!
Wonder what the hardness on those magnacut knives will be. I d8g the drop point version and with a decent heat treatment I'd be interested in one.
S35VN on the RAT 1. They must have been reading my mind.
unfortunately triple the price of the D2 variant
Amazing quality and price. OKC is just awesome
This is the first Shotshow Booth I'd Own every knife in .....Love the Pack knife & the Seax 👌.... can't wait to see these all for sale
The stealth looks so cool, and the two maganacut knives. Well done Ontario, good to see you catching up!
I've toyed with the idea of checking out a super steel, but have never pulled the trigger. I think I was waiting for the Rat! I love my 1 and 2!
OKC is so awesome I freaking love them. Those camp plus...That bersra...that SPL...so much good stuff!!
My favorite pocket knife for the money! Will for sure be buying this upgraded version of the rat 1
So nice to see an iconic knife like the Rat 1 get higher end steel upgrade! I think this was a smart decision, and long overdue. Way to listen to the fans too!! Kudos!
Only took 10 years.
I'm excited about the upgraded RAT 1, but those Camp folders are pretty sweet too. I'm going to have to pick up one... or two.
I would LOVE to get that upgraded Rat 1 with micarta handles!
I like them knives!
When are you going to have the Camp plus folders?
Nice! Definitely quite a few winners!
I’m actually interested in the camp plus midnight
Okay, I would totally buy one of those Pack knives in Magnacut!
Ontario comin' in HOT!🔥
My favorite knife the rat 1. I'm excited about the new upgrades!!
I want a Rat1 flipper on ceramic ball bearings!!!!!!! It’s by far my favorite EDC knife but I’d like one with a little fidget factor.
Love the direction the epoch is taking
All right, way to go Ontario, go go Ontario Nice come up
Good job Ontario!
I really like the Pack Knife in Magnacut!
Stay sharp & Peace,
Stephan
So funny, just came across the „stay sharp“ comment and knew from whom it was coming :)
@@phillmint1525 Im Netz ist die Welt wirklich klein! 🙂
Hau rein & beste Grüße,
Stephan 🙂
That new version of the camp plus is interesting. I like it.
Love OKC knives:)
Nice offerings
Definitely getting the magnacut pack knife
RAT 1 in G10 w/ S35VN is a must purchase for me.
OKC is one of my favorite knife manufacturer's.
Well done OKC👍
Very cool. I’m stoked that I picked up the Red Rat. They seem to be sold out in most places.
Loving the pack knife
OKC make a smaller version of that dive knife that’s compatible with life jackets, I’d love that for when I’m kayak fishing.
That Epoch is a really cool blade shape
Love the RAT 1 & 2 in D2. They punch way above their weight. Cannot wait for S35VN versions!!!! The RAT 1 is built like a tank as it is.
Wonder what HRC the Magnacut is run at.
Awsome
Many news on Ontario Knife Co getting sold and the factory being closed. Any fresh first hand information @knifecenter? I have some RATs and they are a big bang for the bucks, even in Europe where I am. Very sad news.
I love the seax knife
Every year has been a upgrade basically, use my rat 2 everyday as a autobody tech, love me some okc!!
When will this one be available?
Depression spring on the sheath of the dive knife made of steel? In my experience steel springs on dive knife sheaths don't last in salt environment.
any official update concerning the future of OKC? thx
Well done, OKC!
That $15 back lock is a home run. The Rat in S35 is also great, but I’d like to see the weight
Super excite about the upgraded Rat. When will they be available?
Soild stuff OKC, do I need another Rat 1....Absolutely!
I dig the seax knife
I will be buying that Magnacut Pack Knife fixed blade as soon as available.
That black tactical looks cool, just needs to be twice as long and I'd buy it
The Barlow: now a go-to fishing knife.
We need a RAT 2 in magnacut with micarta handle scales
The pack knife is a yes for me.
The stealth looks nice. And so does that seax, but why did it have to be 440.
Hopefully they will do a rat 2 in s35vn too.
That bushcraft seax seaux? seux...
It looks sweet! Wish they made that in magnacut 👍
That Rat 1 tho....gotta have it
13 or 15 bucks is awesome... ill buy a few of them
The upgraded Rat 1 will get a lot of love this year and it’s well deserved. The new Camp Plus knives though, feels like a bargain of the year candidate.
That RAT 1 is going into my rotation.
2:04 It's sad what happened to them two months ago. It's great that they offer an even better features for their Rat-1, but that knife problem wasn't the steel, but the weight from the full unskeletonized liners.
That S35VN RAT1 is the only knife I'm interested in.
When I Could Buy That New Ontario Knives Color Red ???🔥💯🤩🤗
they need to package the dive knife with a marlin spike for sailors.
7:10 For the price a winner!
Cannot wait for that RAT1!
I preordered the new rat from blade hq
Hope the upgraded Rat1 is USA made
Is the rat folder going to be USA made? Im definitely excited for the upgrade but not for the price if it’s still Taiwanese made
I got a Taiwanese D2 RAT-1 with FRN handles, after being warned off the KC special edition D2 with Micarta because it’s Chinese made. Apparently the Chinese QC is poor, but “Free China” does OK. I still prefer American. Was disappointed with a BK40 in D2 because of blade play. Sent it back and KC graciously sent another. I WANTED to like it, great piece of D2, but weak frame and those slick handles, all will flex if blade is pushed sideways. I think I’d like to try a fixed blade version. Still haven’t found the perfect replacement for my old Al Mar SERE2000 but the D2 RAT-1 comes closest.
That jimping on that besra fixed blade was super aggressive.
