Special limited edition model created on the occasion of the XXV Anniversary of Extrema Ratio

Extrema Ratio Misericordia Black Warfare is a version in a limited series of only 500 pieces that preserves intact all the features of the famous Misericordia model adopted by the 4th Alpine Parachute Regiment, which helped develop and test the product and chose it for its unique characteristics that make it particularly suitable for ambush combat.

The blade is milled from Böhler N690 steel, hardened to 58 HRC for the best balance of edge retention and strength, is 118mm long, 4mm thick, and has a flat edge. The weight of the knife is just 87g. It has a spear-point profile, with a full-length shank that makes it even lighter, features ¾-length false counter-wire, and has a Black Warfare finish, with the innovative and original Extrema Ratio Geotech Camo pattern, made by laser engraving.

The handle retains the unmistakable Extrema Ratio ergonomic profile, and is made of fiberglass-filled nylon to ensure absolute robustness in all conditions, even in the heaviest of uses. The distinctive ring on the bottom of the grip aids hand grip by allowing the soldier a greater and firmer lunge, exponentially increasing the combat potential of the Misericordia.

The Kydex scabbard offers belt-clip, ulti-clip and malice-clip attachment options. In addition, it is possible to attach the scabbard to the M.O.L.L.E. system by braiding the paracord lanyard. The Misericordia Black Warfare comes in an IP67-certified watertight Polypropylene technical case, with pressurization valve, weatherproof, dustproof and shockproof, inside of which is also the Kydex sheath, double UTLICLIP, double-grit sharpening plate (ceramic abrasive and synthetic diamond) and metal plaque with the progressive number of the limited series.

The Extrema Ratio Frame Rock is a new knife, based on the Ti-Rock project, a successful frame-lock knife made by Extrema Ratio in 2016 exclusively for Coltelleria Collini.

The Extreme Ratio Frame Rock is characterized by a titanium handle that offers great resistance while being very light. The integrity of the frame-lock system is guaranteed against wear by an easily replaceable hardened steel insert.

Unlike its drop-point predecessor, the Rock frame has a 75mm long, 6.0mm thick spearpoint blade fitted with a fuller for further lightening. The blade is made of Bohler N690 steel, heat treated to a hardness of 58 HRC. The same is available with a black finish with DLC treatment or satin.

To make opening even more fluid and without uncertainty, the blade rotates on ball bearings. This mechanism allows the user to adjust the force necessary to obtain the release of the blade from the closed position.

The shape of the reversible clip allows a hidden port in the pocket, making the knife not visible from the outside. The large and solid handle and the well-proportioned blade allow this knife to tackle heavy tasks. The Frame Rock weighs less than 200g, making it somewhat light for such a sturdy knife. Comes inside an ABS box.

Japanese steel blends with Italian excellence

For this 2020 collaboration, exclusive of Collini Cutlery, we have decided to propose a series of best sellers produced by Extrema Ratio. Knives made with the famous San Mai steel produced by the Japanese Takefu Steel. Specifically, we used V-Toku2 carbonaceous at 62 / 63HRC for the central plate and SUS410 stainless steel for the two external plates, in order to guarantee a very high cutting capacity, penetration and sealing of the wire together with an ease of re-sharpening. and maintenance but at the same time the blade has a remarkable resistance to corrosion and an important increase in resilience given by the type of external steel and by the laminated structure.

Col Moschin model: for this First Production Run a run of 11 pieces was produced, numbered from 1 to 11.

Special purpose cutting knife, specially developed for the 9th Col Moschin Parachute Assault Regiment, elite unit of the Folgore brigade.

Use: tactical, sports, hiking, collection

Blade: integral, in laminated Japanese steel (San Mai) with V-Toku2 (carbonaceous) cutting edge at 62 / 63HRC and external SUS410 (stainless steel) scales
Handle: forprene
Blade length: 160mm.
Blade thickness: 6.5mm.
Total length: 290mm.
Balance: set back to 0.5cm. from the guard branch
Weight: 265g.
Sheath: modular tactical, from thigh or belt, in Nylon
Notes: Numbered edition - cardboard box with Extremaratio logos and certificate - being the cutting edge in carbon steel it is advisable, in order to keep the blade in perfect condition, to protect the edge with a light surface of oil.

As in the ancient Japanese Samurai swords.

Rolled steel - imported into Italy by Collini Steel directly from Japanese Takefu Steel - is based on the ancient Japanese tradition in the creation of the famous Samurai swords. In fact, as early as 1100 the expert Japanese blacksmiths combined different materials together to give the Katana swords incredible cutting capabilities combined with a resistance and flexibility previously unknown. It is thanks to this revolutionary construction technique that Samurai swords have been preserved to this day, becoming one of the most fascinating objects made by man. Following this tradition applied to modern metallurgy, today we are able to have technologically advanced steels already tested and used in cutlery also by famous brands such as Fallkniven, Cold Steel, Mcusta, Kai, Sog, Zwilling, Rockstead, etc.

Characteristics of San Mai steel: These are different types of metals bonded together to create a composite that encloses and intensifies the strengths of the metals individually taken:

- Longer tool life
thanks to the use of very high quality steels with high carbon content (VG10, CoS, Shiro) or sintered (SPG2), in the heart of the sheet (Core Steel), the blade, once hardened, achieves decidedly hardness and cutting performance higher than those achieved with the use of traditional steels.

- Greater resilience
built with the principle of Japanese swords, multilayer steel is difficult to break thanks to the toughness of the central steel (Core Steel) and the elasticity of the steel used for the side coating (Stainless Steel).

- Better corrosion resistance
the steel used for the external layers (Stainless Steel) guarantees the blade a high resistance to corrosion. The combination of the two or more materials used by Takefu Steel generates, on a galvanic level, a structure that improves corrosion resistance even on the wire.

- Easy processing even after heat treatment
although steel normally becomes harder after quenching, the lateral steel used in multilayer processing does not lose its softness and allows easy processing, drilling or welding even after heat treatment. For an optimal performance of the blade, cryogenic treatment is recommended.

- Improvement of the aesthetic result
The knives made with multi-state steel or damascus pattern at the end of the processing are aesthetically elegant, refined and highly appreciated by collectors all over the world.

It has a blade with a lance-shaped profile, a flat grinding and a diamond-shaped geometry. It has got a lower guard branch to protect itself from incidental cuts, upper jumping to improve grip, concave fuller along the length of the blade and a generous thickness blade (6.30mm) the now famous Requiem, revisited in proportions and in some technical features. The first of a new line of multipurpose knives.

The blade is made in Böhler N690 steel with a hardness of 58 HRC and a chemical burnishing coating for the Black version. All other colors in production have got a blade with Stone Washed finishing. The handle is still in forprene. It is more assembled by the side screws but thanks to the shank in truncated cone-shaped stainless steel that is screwed to the bottom and goes to fit inside a special seat, which makes it solid. In this way the knife is well balanced. The sheath is minimalist; most of the fabric has been cut off; it has got a 2nd level retention system, remembering the style of the model it was inspired by.

The main shell is injection-molded in shockproof nylon. The secondary retention system is reversible for ambidextrous users. The blade is guided through the conception of the blade. To extract the blade, to pressure the trigger will be sufficient, thus releasing the safety that holds securely in the sheath.

The particular situation created in the early years of the 1914/18 war, now mired in increasingly complex and protected trenches and fortifications, favored the formation of men who, little by little, specialized in the coup.

Our assault units, the Arditi, had their dagger. It was obtained from the pieces cut away by the long blades of the Vetterli 1870 bayonets, which in the narrow trenches, in the corridors, between the reticulars were only an obstacle. It was certainly a rustic weapon, of recovery, not too beautiful but certainly inexpensive, light, not cumbersome and in expert hands also effective.

Today, on the occasion of the centenary, we recall this important page of Italian military history with a limited celebratory series in only 100 numbered copies. This version has a satin blade and a walnut wood handle and is sold with a wooden box and leather sheath.

For this new exclusive collaboration with Extrema Ratio we decided to propose a best seller in the world of cutlery, the Shrapnel model. It's a satin blade version but the most important thing is that has been used, for the first time in Italy, the famous Japanese Steel San Mai produced by Takefu Steel. Specifically, we used the CoS (Cobalt Special, considered mechanically superior by 25% compared to the already appreciated VG10) for the central plate and the 420J2 (55 HRC) for the two side plates, in order to have a high cutting capacity, but at the the same time a remarkable resilience and resistance to oxidation.

A First Production Run of 30 pieces has been made.

SHRAPNEL OG is a truly versatile “back up” knife with marked combat qualities. Its leaf-shaped blade is flat ground at a characteristically low angle to a wide, extraordinarily sharp edge. The included hard sheath can be worn vertically, horizontally or obliquely (at a 45° angle). Tthe SHRAPNEL OG hilt design does not include a guard.

Use: tactical , sports , hiking , collection
Blade: Full , Japanese- rolled stainless steel ( San Mai) with sharp CoS to 61,7HRC in cryogenic tempering
Handle: Forprene
Blade length: 90mm.
Blade Thickness: 6.5 mm.
Overall length: 210mm.
Balancing: back to 0.5cm . by guard branch
Weight: 214g.
Sheath: ABS with Tek - Lok multi attack
Notes: cardboard box with Extremaratio logos and certificate

Clad Metal
It is a composite metal partly or entirely diffusion bonded together of different kinds of metals.

Metal composition shows higher performance which respective materials alone do not possess and the performance complements opposite characteristics of each material, that is "compound characteristics"

Clad Effect on Cutleries

Toughness
Like Japanese swords, clad metal is hard to break or bend, thanks to the toughness as the hard steel part is clad with soft steels.
Easy to work on
Cladded structure is easy to apply on such works as forging, grinding, sharpening or polishing to make a sharp blade.

Improved corrosion resistance　　　　
Proper material combination generates electrical potential difference and it enhances the corrosion resistance on blade edge.

Better and long lasting sharpness
Steel after forging pressure makes the microscopic structure denser and improves the sharpness and ensures long lasting performance.

Resource saving
As high class steel is used only for necessary part, it is perfectly cost effective..

Easy distortion correction
As the steel is bonded with soft steel materials, its blade is hard to break and the distortion correction is easy.

Easy drilling and welding after heat treatment
Though the steel gets harder after heat treatment, the soft steel never loses its softness, enabling the material to be drilled or welded.

Design improvement
Laminated patterns or Damascus patterns appear from basis materials which are bonded with different kinds of metals.

TACTICAL KNIVES MEET THE KITCHEN!
Extrema Ratio is delighted to apply the strict military standards to a range of professional kitchen knives.

The steel blade is the proven BOHLER N690, a steel enriched with chrome, vanadium, molybdenum and cobalt, hardened to the hardness of 58HRC. The handle is made of Forprene, an elastomer that is in the "NATO standard" for resistance to extreme conditions, and is completely removable from the blade; this makes possible a thorough cleaning and maintenance of the knife.

Each knife comes with its own sheath, also of military origin, which does not take into account the rules of hygiene but ensures safe transport dell'affilatissima blade and protection from shocks that could reduce efficiency. We recommend to use it only for the transport and in the event of long periods of inactivity.

Use: meat / vegetables
