2) Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
3) Keep your finger off the trigger till your sights are on the target.
4) Identify your target, and what is behind it.

Damn, ssmickey.32, :shock: I wouldn't even dream about doing the things that you've done to RAO. But you did it. Hats off. I suggest you send these pics to Extreme Ratio, they'll be more than happy to publish this in their album.

Oh! Oh! Wait a min M24, those tests are not carried out by me... someone did it and posted the pics with a link on some forum... i just pasted the link here :mrgreen:

Yes! it is a pleasure to learn what ur knife can do / is capable of from those pics. I saw those pics before placing my order of 'RAO'.

Hi y'all,

I love the way this folder looks...awesome, to say the least, but coming across some articles where i saw fake chinese RAOs, i almost thought it as joke to clone this hitech made blades...
but heres how good the fakes are getting:
http://www.dhgate.com/extrema-ratio-185 ... a0809.html

before parking precious greenbacks on these killers, make sure the ones you are buying arent from anywhere near frm these chinky named sellers! :x

Dear All,

I am new to IFG. I would like to collect ancient swords,dagger and armour. I am fine even with Replicas. I would like to know the law for such collection. Are we suppose to get any licence or special approval . Is it legal in India to collect such articles? Please help me.

Regards,

Andy

Hi,
There is lots of stuff floating around with ridiculous price. One can find emerson karambit for around 30usd at dhgate, whereas the genuine starts from 200 usd. Nervertheless lots of companies are getting items sourced from china and the quality is good as the quality controls norms are adhered to. Cost going up could have host of reasons like royality, duties etc.

Yes the prices at dhgate are tempting. Subal what you say?

Cheers
Biren

Sure Jayakumar.. give me a day or two... If I am not wrong, you too are a proud owner of some Extrema Ratio knife, if yes - could u please share the snaps of your knife too?

Buyers please read about Extrema Ratio Fakes here. It is clearly written that extrema Ratio Knives are 'made in Italy' only.

Best regards
