Contact Fixed Knife, Hcs, Extrema Ratio

Enjoy Contact Fixed Knife, Hcs, Extrema Ratio

Fixed blade contact hcs, extreme ratio

Extrema ratio developed the first knife of a new production line called contact.



It has a lance-shaped blade profile, flat grinding and diamond-shaped geometry. It has a lower guard to protect the hand from accidental cuts, an upper jumping to improve grip, a concave depression along the entire length of the blade and a generously thick blade (6.30 mm). All these details make the Contact the older brother of the now famous Requiem, which has been revised in its proportions and in some technical features. The first of a new line of utility knives.



The blade is made of Böhler N690 steel with a hardness of 58 HRC and a chemical burnishing coating for the black version. All other colours in production have a blade with a stonewashed finish. The handle is still in Forprene. It is no longer fixed by the side screws, but thanks to the truncated cone-shaped stainless steel shaft, which is screwed to the ground and fits into a special seat that makes it solid. In this way the knife remains well balanced. The sheath is minimalist; most of the fabric is cut away; it has a retention system that recalls the style of the model it was inspired by.



The main housing is injection molded from shockproof nylon. The secondary retention system can be implemented for ambidextrous users. The blade is inserted into the sheath thanks to its cone shape, which favors quick insertion and extraction of the blade. To remove the blade, all you need to do is press the pressure lever, which releases the lock that holds the blade securely in the sheath. A system is installed in the horizontal slots of the sheath that fixes the blade to prevent rattling noises when storing it inside. The back of the nylon sheath is compatible with MOLLE.



The textile part is reduced to a minimum and features the classic two-button safety strap with a belt loop and a rubber-reinforced thigh guard to prevent rotation. Extrema Ratio is betting on this new line, reducing the thickness and size of the knife to a minimum, but without skimping on structural strength and safety accessories.
