Ontario Knives

Ontario Knife Company armed American soldiers and outdoorsmen from 1889 — military-issue fixed blades, hard-use folders and field tools built in upstate New York.

The RAT platform

Ontario's RAT 1 and RAT 2 folders are arguably the best-value EDC knives ever made — so beloved they support a whole aftermarket. We stock the knives plus upgrade scales in G10, micarta, carbon fiber and aluminum (jade, denim, OD linen and more), and genuine RAT repair kits to keep older knives running.

Military and field heritage

Ontario's legacy spans bayonets, machetes and combat classics that equipped US forces for a century — collectors and users alike hunt the marked pieces.
