The prehistoric Raptor used it's claws to cut, slice and dice it's prey as well as any predator that walked the Earth. Definitely my personal favorite dinosaur, so why not create a knife in it's honor? Like all Off-Grid designs, the Raptor was made with hard-use cutting in mind, with an EDC friendly size. The extremely sharp hawkbill style tip offers an incredible penetrating "bite" into whatever you're cutting, and the straight edge finishes the job. In addition to the curved tip and straight edge 1-2 punch, the edge has a lot of mass behind it with a wide radius blade shape and grind lines traveling towards the tip for extra strength. The G10 handle offers a strong, grippy three finger hold with a large finger guard, textured scales and extended jimping on the spine. The fat belly blade rides on ball bearings which deploys using the flipper tab. Your grip will be locked in and ready for the task at hand as your thumb will naturally land on the gippy spine. The steel is D2 with a blackwash finish. The Raptor rides super deep in your pocket with the option of left hand carry. Bestech built the Raptor for Off-Grid with the usual superb fit and finish. Add the Raptor to your daily EDC rotation!
The Raptor blade design was made to cut with precision and authority. Once you sink the curved tip into whatever you're cutting, as you pull or push through, the straight edge will take over and make short work of the job at hand. The Raptor will handle all your EDC tasks and look quite badass while doing them. The D2 blade steel has incredible edge retention, corrosion resistance and it comes razor sharp out of the box. The TiNi coating adds even more corrosion resistance and toughness with a blackwash tumbled finish.
The Raptor is Off-Grid's version of a compact EDC, a three finger grip and under three inch cutting edge, we consider compact. The Raptor will lock into your hand and your thumb will land on the jimping on the spine every time for full grippy leverage. Once you flip the blade and take hold of the handle, you'll know this knife is ready for work.
Off-Grid designed the Raptor and our friends at Bestech built it. Just like our best selling Rhino, Caiman and Black Stallion, these guys know how to create buttery smooth action. The Raptor has an ergonomic flipper tab that will deploy the blade into position with confident lockup.
The Raptor was perhaps the best stealthy predator ever, changing it's skin color to match it's surroundings. In our case, a super deep carry clip with a non-reflective black finish always keeps your knife on the down low. We also made the screws on the clip flush with the handle, easy in and out of the pocket, no snags. Tip up, left or right hand carry.
The bottom line is, the Raptor is down with whatever you can throw at it, hard work, tough jobs, opening boxes, self defense use and even camping chores. Add in a Lifetime Replacement Guarantee, the Raptor is a no-brainer.
