Well, I got a nice package today containing a new Extrema Ratio MF2.

Boy is it nice!! It is a bit larger than I imagined, but still very manageable for EDC (at least for me). The handle is light and very sturdy. The ergonomics are nice, although the second hilt will take a little getting used to.

The blade is very well finished, and seems quite sharp. The locking mechanism seems very strong also, and the secondary lock very secure although I doubt I will be in a situation where I will need it.

All in all a very nice and well finished piece. I am very impressed!! Here are a couple pics...

Very nice where did you get it from? I have been eyeing the mpc for a while now. But this one is a strong contender.
Congrats on your new purchase.
 
Can you post an in hand picture? I'm having a hard time seeing a hand wrapped around it with that secondary hilt thing.
 
Very cool. I'm always puzzled by the adulation heaped on very expensive folders like the Sebenza. I have no doubt that it's very well made but it's borrrrring! That Extrema Ratio however,looks badass and I have no doubt that it's also well made. I wish there was a Canadian dealer.
 
By the way ,you seem to have the same taste in knives that I have. I've got the Gerber and the Cold Steel in your picture, and I also really like the Boker folding dagger.
 
Cool comparison pic. Better blade. Waiting to save up the scratch for one of those.
 
"Where did you get it?"

www.xtremeknives.com. They have AMAZING customer service, and very good prices. I think they ship to CA also.

"What is the orange thing?"

It is a secondary lock (a la Gerber Applegate)

"Can you post a in hand picture"

Sure... here is a pic of it in my meaty mitt.

Would you post a pic of the liner lock? I'm interested in how robust it is.
 
WOW!!! I have never seen a knife like ER....man is that ever deadly looking!!!! Very very nice buddy!!
 
I like the blade shape, how's it feel with that middle 'guard' thingy?

I think that I'd end up grinding the secondary hilt/guard off. It would look a whole lot better that way, and probably be more comfortable to boot. The knife does have great lines though. Very nice.

S&R Knives (http://www.srknives.com) in Toronto carry quite a few Extrema Ratio knives. S&R will also order anything you want for very good prices.
