- RAO C OUTDOOR - Folding Knife – Heavy Duty Outdoor Folder
Hardwood, fire, field, repetition. - Cutting, working, preparing, adapting.
When the context decides the rules, the Extrema Ratio knives of the OUTDOOR series are ready to stay as operational as you are.
The Extrema Ratio Outdoor line was created for a simple principle: when you are outside, the superfluous weighs heavily. It is a series designed for outdoor use in the field, with dedicated livery and solutions: green handles for environmental integration, stone washed or satin blades for simplified maintenance, high-visibility paracord, essential and resistant sheaths.
Fewer unnecessary accessories. Same reliability, same quality, same performance. The knives of the Outdoor series interpret this philosophy in a direct way: real tools, ready to work.
The RAO C in an Outdoor key - RAO C Outdoor is a compact, robust folding knife, derived from the iconic RAO II, reinterpreted for outdoor use. It maintains the construction philosophy of the RAO C series: maximum structural solidity in a more portable format, with high handling and control. It is designed for those looking for an outdoor folding knife capable of working under load.
The Outdoor configuration introduces livery and solutions dedicated to field use, transforming a heavy duty folder into a consistent tool for operational bushcraft, advanced camping and professional outdoor.
Blade and structure - The Böhler N690 steel blade hardened to 58 HRC maintains the characteristics of oxidation resistance, edge stability and ease of maintenance that make it ideal for a professional outdoor knife.
The Outdoor stone washed finish is chosen for heavy-duty use: less sensitive to marks, easier to maintain, more tolerant of dirt and humidity. The grip construction combines anodized aluminum scales with a Cerakote finish and dual steel frames, increasing overall rigidity and heavy-duty strength.
Locking and security system - RAO C Outdoor adopts a particularly robust locking system. The closing mechanism is supported by a primary and a secondary safety, which stabilize the blade when opening, transforming the behavior of the knife into that of a tool similar to a fixed blade.
Outdoor Handle - The green scales of the Outdoor configuration improve visual integration into the natural context. The high-visibility orange paracord lanyard adds a practical safety feature: quick recovery of the tool when it falls through vegetation or ground.
Outdoor Carrying System - Unlike the basic model, RAO C Outdoor is equipped with a Kydex sheath, designed for safe open-blade transport in an outdoor context. Lightweight, durable, does not absorb water and does not require complex maintenance.

- MOLLE ready – direct attachment via paracord to backpacks and modular systems
