OUTDOOR-TEST Extrema Ratio ADRA 

Bullshit - it is a dagger with fucking 6(!!!) mm Bladethickness - a dagger, only meant for stabbing people to death is 3mm - do you have an idea about knives and knife-history?? Obviously NOT!

There are far cheaper and better knives designed for stabbing AND some survival scenarios. I wouldn't pay $500+ just for a stabber with a crappy handle that can break like that.

Well Theres hardly any Situation where shit gets thrown around harder than when fighting. For that price you could get almost any other knife so why spend so much on stuff that cant even take one single Impact? You can still Like it but this is a valid concern imo

look at the KM2000 or KM3000

Спасибо за ответ, друг. Я хотел заказать Adra в Россию и понял, что делать этого не стоит

Why don`t you PLEASE tell this the management of Extrema Ratio, but telling it me?? Peace!

AS long as we are only talking about a "Dagger"...you are right. BUT "Extrema Ratio" has advertised this knife as a Mission Knife...and that`s why I tested it that hard! And the result was : it is NOT a Mission Knife, but only a dagger- but if we talk about daggers, we do not talk about a blade thickness of a quarter of an inch (6mm) . If we talk about clean Killing Knifes(Daggers), I talk about 2mm thickness and a geometric design, which slips easily into anything, made of flesh! And 400 dollars as a price tag...this is a challenge ;)

Of course the Kizlyar (which is the same as the American Made TOPS "Wild Pig Hunter", TOPS asked for permission to copy this Kizlyar design and was allowed to realize it. Best Regards, Chris

+Michele Trekkning n690 is a premium steel. v v v good.... good corrosion resistance good edge retention , and flexible

N690 is an austrian steel , if well tempered it holds an edge very long.

The blade did not break the polymer handle did. That style knife is not intended for throwing...especially in very cold temps when polymer materials become quite brittle and introducing shock of it hitting at a weird angle caused the failure.

Да это не настоящий а подделка

You know the characteristics of a full tang knife?

Markus Wincor Hi but you know there is no statement of any kind from ER or S.O.F.T.E.R, the makers of FORPRENE, that it is indestructible against such abuse. I think everyone here is reading too much into this type of "test" I bet I can destroy any handle on any knife, custom or otherwise if I throw it a lot, that's why most professional throwing knives do not have a handle other than the extension of the tang itself acting as a handle (for correct balance etc). And if you did have to throw this particular knife in an emergency (granted for the soldier in dire circumstance) then that is going to be one throw and not multiple. "Excuse me" he said to the guy who had the knife thrown at them. "Do you mind if I just pick up my knife and throw it again at you"? I think not. I would in this instance if I thought there was a fault in the handle construction have it examined by a materials scientist to determine the cause of failure first before slagging anyone. One usually doesn't buy a car, find a fault and immediately make public a video on YT slagging the car manufacturer. You would first take that car back to the dealer and attempt to get satisfaction before throwing any punches, should that be necessary.

THIS A.D.R.A is DIRECTLY from Extrema Ratio from Italy, sent to me by a manager of Extrema Ratio, I had issues with my first ORIGINAL one, sent it to E.R. and they inspected it and sent this ORIGINAL to me - I think it cannot be more real and original than this - would you agree? If I test a "fake", I would tell it in the video-titel. If I test an original, like this one, I also tell it truely. I interacted/communicated with E.R. more than one time and directly to their headquarter in Italy. Okay for you?? Thanks

blackforestghost1 did the edges on that dagger come razor sharp out of the box can u please tell me

I agree !

COULD BUY A BUSSE FOR 400 EUROS!

i dont think so....and what about the other Video from you with the ''RAO'' Knife...??This knife did not bring it as well...i do not know if I can trust the thing....because as far as i knoow normal knife-previews consist of simple cutting tests and not what you do with the knives like throwing in to walls and sting into concrete blocks.

everyone has the right to comment on my channel in a respectable manner. If I say, this knife is an original E.R. than it is a FACT! I already have been a serious long time member of european`s biggest knife- and weapon forum the TFDE and member of the inner circle Cranium Society - we do not lie or cheat about knives! And the TFDE worked together with members of the leaders of Extrema Ratio over many years to create annual customized knives(special runs), you can only buy on TFDE. So, that means, E.R. knows me and me , I know E.R. is that clear now for you??? You can try to contact E.R and ask about BLACKFORESTGHOST! Ever thought about:"Why does E.R. not comment this video and tell, this knife is a fake?" Bescause it is a fucking ORIGINAL, I already told you ignorant!! One insult more and you will be banned from this channel! Over and out - my time is too precious to tell stupids every time the same!

Then post a video of you throwing YOUR Extrema Ratio ADRA knife against a wooden board to test the handle durability...

try knife from Viper by Tecnocut ;)

FOX do make nice knives but seriously the handles suck and have to be the most uncomfortable handle I've ever held. For soldiers this is all wrong

Also I don't know any manufacturer, European or US etc that warranties their knives against breakage after throwing.......unless it is a knife made specifically for throwing. A thrown knife can strike any object at the end of the day and cause irreparable damage to the knife, whether that damage occurs on the handle or the blade itself. The most common form of damage would have to be chipped blades (from hitting stones or rocks- or any very hard un yielding surface/objects). Great forces can occur to the blade from throwing a knife (once it contacts something. So this a good reason not to warranty against damage incurred from throwing a knife. We are too brainwashed about throwing knives from stupid movies. It's like people tying knives to poles to defend themselves LOL (against what????). The only practical reason to tie a knife to a pole/stick/branch etc is to cut something out of reach/ gather food etc, NOT spearing fish or defending against attacking bears LOL. This (all videos talking/showing making defensive weapons by strapping knives to poles) has also got to be one of the greatest myths created solely for RU-vid viewers by people who have little or no outdoor/field experience.

+Andrea Giongiani Good, then change nationality and go to a country where marketing is forbidden and ppl doesn't want to buy excellence. Next please!

+Andrea Giongiani Yeah sure, I was trolling, touchè. Tho, just for the pleasure of a youtube argument: you can't blame companies that market products with crazy retail prices. A company should make money, the more the better, that's business. The only difference between ER and FOX is that FOX works the most among the Italian market only, ER is overseas oriented instead, and so its prices. You can't feel ashamed of your nationality only cause a company found a way to improve its business better than another one.

And could you tell me something about Fantoni knives?

It seems that the majority of serial made knives are crap, because heat treatment is something that must be done very carefuly if knife is to cut or resist breaking. Only custom made or hand made knives are of high value and quality because knifemaker or bladesmith can devote much more time and carefulnes to the each knife, which results in very high quality product. That is why i would never buy a knife that is made in factory.

You have NO IDEA what you're talking about FOOL!

Yes, extrema ratio is expensive. It's the same like cars. They are all the same shit, but some are expansive and some are cheap. I love extrema ratio knives, and the steel is pretty good in my sight. What knife's do you prefer?

@@Donnergeier European knife makers tend to make knives that easy to sharpen. N690 is low-mid steel which has quite good corrosion resistance and good HRC when heat treated correctly. Still stupidly over price though.
