Extrema Ratio - Misericordia (Desert) Fixed Blade Knife, Bohler N690 steel blade 4 mm thick, hardened to 58 HRC, stone-washed finish, lightweight ergonomic handle, made in Italy

10/5 stars. Mind blown away by the craftsmanship. **WARNING** VERY SHARP!! which is a wonderful thing. This knife is amazing in everyway.

I have been looking at this blade for some time and finally bought it, hoping for an upgrade to the Benchmade SOCP dagger; sadly, it is not. Pro's: The blade and handle are excellent, of superior quality, and have a great feel. The ring was functional, and the size of the handle contributed to the ease of use of the knife. Con's: The blade is single-sided, and while the guard marks it out as the cutting side, it is not as functional in a self-defense situation where fumbling happens. The sheath is likely one of the worst I have ever used (considering I own a lot of knives; this is saying something). The sheath-locking mechanism appears fragile; the blade both rattles and shaves the interior of the sheath when not inserted perfectly. All of this can be worked through. However, the worst part of the sheath is the MOLLE mountings, which neither lock nor remain in place. I initially utilized a single molle panel from Helkion Tex to mount this on my belt, but it fell off twice. Finally, I mounted it on my body armor (external carrier), but it fell off during a tactical drill involving a rifle and a three-point sling. I am not sure if the unit that tested these glued, taped, or screwed these things in place; but barring creative use of zip ties or black tape, this thing is not likely to survive a deployment anywhere other than the back of your car.

The blade is decent, but it is very loose. Video attached. No blade should rattle that badly. The blade is nice and light. If it wasn't so lose it would be a better rating. Tactical silence is important and this one a vest can give away a position. Update- company was no help to fix the issue-- too loose to make it work tactically. Return pending.

The knife is ok. The sheath is ok. With that said it's just ok. Not worth the money.

Very durable fixed blade. Easy to remove from the sheath with a safety lick. Safety lock is super easy to open. Blade is extremely sharp. Blacked out version looks sick! Great value for the money spent!

It's a good knife .but not a $200 knife. Feels like most of the money was for the sheath. And it does rattle around in it. Don't think I would trust the Mollie straps to hold on to a belt. Nothing locks them in place.

Very nice knife! I was impressed with this knife and have now added this to my EDC gear. It came extremely sharp straight out of the box and I've shown this knife to two buddies who are huge knife enthusiasts and both said that the knife is very well made. It's a very good size and the grip fits the hand very well.

The knife is cool but the sheath is bad. The rattle is loud and you can't keep clip it to anything without it falling off. Ive almost lost the bits quite a few times before i stopped carrying it. You're technically supposed to attach it to one of those military spots for thing on a vest n such but even with that being said the plastic bits are not sturdy.
