Extrema Ratio, located in Prato, Italy, has been designing, manufacturing and selling high performance combat knives since 1997 enjoying a reputation for excellence that is unsurpassed in the military and tactical knife industry.
The increased capacity through the years enabled Extrema Ratio to extend its operations. As part of this effort, the company moved in 2004 to a new 600 square meter facility in order to meet the market demand and the company quickly established itself as one of the country’s leading cutlery manufacturers.
Extrema Ratio serves military and law enforcement communities as well as commercial markets and the knives are well known and sought after all over the globe.
The company prides itself in design, material and quality to deliver a high end product that meets the most severe mil-standards.
We designed and developed KREIOS with Master Instructor Daniele Dal Canto of F.I.S.S.S. (the Italian Survival Federation), who dubbed it the “off-road” of edged tools. Not a design meant for just one specific use, then, but an extremely versatile multi-purpose tool for a vast array of outdoor activities. Its ergonomics, weight and size make the KREIOS highly effective at carving a path through dense foliage, especially when keeping a safe distance from thorny or otherwise dangerous vegetation is called for. Because of its sturdiness, it also performs excellently as a heavy field work machete, in such duties as felling trees or chopping firewood. The length of its 12” ¾ “full flat” cutting edge combined with its 11° downward blade -to-grip angle and hefty 22 ½ oz. weight yield a extraordinary cutting capability and very high tolerance to tensile stress. Contemporary geometries and materials meld with Malaysian and African traditions into a heavy duty field work tool which, in a pinch, doubles as a weapon of defense and offense. Includes MOLLE system sheath and safety carry shoulder belt.
