Rat 3

[coaldigger]

What do you think about the ontario RAT-3 ? Do you think that it's too small ?
I am packing a BK-7 now & was thinking of trading my BK-10 for a RAT 3 to attach to my BK-7 & carry as a combo What do you think ?

The Rat-3 is my favorite of the Rat line. I prefer the older model and not the new model with the pointed butt. Better for palm pushing the knife into wood. The only drawback, in my opinion, to the RAT-3 is the choil. I used to like them and that was the reason I liked my Fehrman Peacemaker so much. However, the choil takes away from useable cutting edge and for me, in a small blade, that is important to have.

Overall, the RAT-3 is a well made knife that many people rely on. I think you won't be sorry.

Brigade Quartermasters still has some of the 1095 RAT-3- unfortunately, only with the Black sheath and partially serrated.

I like mines, but the handle is for small/medium hands. If you have large hands, the handle might be to small for you.
