Extrema Ratio Ant Black Stonewashed

Extrema Ratio Ant Black Stonewashed

ER0410000467SW/BLK

Ant is the most compact of Extrema Ratio’s folding knives. Despite its small size, this model features an exceptionally strong, durable, and reliable construction. The handle consists of two different elements: a grip made of anodized anticorodal aluminum and a hardened steel frame that functions as the blade locking mechanism (Frame Lock System). Part of the frame is bent inward to securely lock the blade when opened, thus increasing operator safety during use.

 Ant is available in 4 versions with two different types of steel, both supplied by Böhler, an Austrian company with which Extrema Ratio has collaborated for more than 20 years, using their time-tested materials for the production of its blades.

Ant Black and Ant Black Stone Washed are made from Böhler N690, hardened to 58 HRC for a better balance between edge retention and toughness; this is a type of steel used by Extrema Ratio for most of its knives.
