Extrema Ratio Ontos Survival Knife

Im looking to buy an other used Selvan or ONTOS if anybody is selling. With or without sheath

You may need to upgrade to at least a "Basic" (paid) membership, before making "want to buy" posts, too. I'm not sure how that works, because I'm just a lowly free-to-play, also, and there are some different rules for us. Sounds weird, until you think about the fact that just about any search for knife-related eventually generates results for this place, and if people could just parachute in and make selling-related posts anywhere they wanted, it would be a mess.
 
Hi, I have used a lot of extrema ratio knives. The biggest reason is that it is one of the most accessible brands since I am in Europe. My advice is definitely not to buy it. Extrema ratio knives definitely do not produce knives that can justify their price in today's modern knife industry. For the same price, you can get knives that use high-end steels. Extrema knives are famous for their durability, but there is a little trick there too. Their blades max 58hrc and are generally softer. I would even say the average is around 56. Therefore, the toughness of such a soft steel increases. Are you looking for that kind of toughness? A good knife should be around 60hrc for retention and give that toughness.
