Extrema Ratio DMP Full Field Review

Extrema Ratio DMP Full Field Review Here I take my Extrema Ratio DMP out into the mountains for several days of hiking and camping to determine, can this knife, the DMP designed for military applications be of use in the wilds? I have written at length about the usefulness of some military purposed blades for civilian usage. Designed primarily for military carry on waist with a highly adjustable elasticised leg loop and anti rattle Nylon scabbard, the Extrema Ratio can be easily dissembled without tools for thorough cleaning. The color range is good too: HCS, Wolf Grey, Desert and Ranger green (this model). I've spoken at length about their camouflage colours and the Ranger green, if you put it down in green foliage you will lose it in the bush LOL. If you have to beat upon it, it can handle it although I don't recommend doing this to any knife. The uncoated N690 is easy to clean and keep hygienic. The knife displays good balance. The DMP also comes in anti reflection Mil Spec black oxide coating. At approx 5' in length, the Extrema Ratio DMP is certainly not too large to carry into the mountains hiking. Being a full flat ground drop point can only make it suitable for multi-tasking, no surprise as the drop point since it's popularity began from Bob Loveless (although not per se invented by him) has been the focus of many a knife manufacturer. Now Extrema Ratio have designed their version, simplistic but with all useful lines and geometries, tough enough to handle heavy handedness and yet nimble enough to allow for civilian usage around the camp and hiking. The DMP is housed within an injection moulded reinforced Nylon scabbard, which can be easily cleaned even with the knife inserted. ER talks about the tip is reinforced. I'd say rather than reinforced, i'd say the swedge is not as thin as in some of their other models and not designed as a thrusting tool. We are not talking "crow bar thickness" like on some old Strider models LOL! But remember knives are NOT for levering with unless it happens to be an Abalone pryer LOL! Followup videos to come! Easy to keep sharp with a ceramic rod (not supplied). See my extensive blog to find out more. https://hardcorecampingtools.blogspot... Make no mistake, their crazy looking Forprene grips just work full stop. If you want to see what I did with the knife, just skip to a halfway through the video. #ExtremaRatio #ExtremaRatioDMP #N690 #campingknives #Hikingknives #huntingknives #TacticalKnives #Thefactorylab #MadeInItaly #Forprene #DMP #BöhlerN690 #CampingEquipment #ItalianCutlery #MilitaryKnives You can also see it here: https://www.extremaratio.com/index.ph...
