At five inches long, this blade can easily reach all the vital targets of the body - most from multiple angles. The width is just over one inch wide, providing a wide wound channel and great leverage. Single edge makes this blade legal in most places and the false edge on top provides the all important point geometry necessary for ease of penetration through tough clothing or other materials.

A strong wide grip provides safety and security to the user. The deep finger notch and the curved palm assist handle makes thrusting more secure and reduces the chances of riding the blade. The hook on the end of the handle provide a mechanical advantage when performing the drawstroke, making it faster and more secure. It also puts the blade in the Master grip, giving you the same grip from the draw, every time.

The trainer is an exact replica of the live blade but with a couple of small, important changes.

The tip of the Dirty trainer is 0.5" shorter than the real blade. When you practice with a trainer, you touch your target with the tip but cannot enter the target. This shorter design builds an automatic half inch penetration into your targeting and negates the training scar created by using trainers. The anodized blue color is a safety standard in military training. All inert training devices are blue (training guns, claymores, etc).

The sheath was created in collaboration with Tenicor, who are regarded by many as the gold standard in the holster space.

Manufactured with precision CNC, this sheath provides the user with the option of ambidextrous sheathing and an ultra slim profile for maximum concealment. With the equipped HLR Clip™ by Discreet Carry Concepts, you will be able to adjust the cant angle to tailor it to your carrying preference. The clip has a very high clamping force which allows the user to carry without a belt, in whatever clothing you desire.

Also included is the Tenicor storage sheath, which allows the live blade to be stored securely while the trainer is in use.

THE BLADE

The Rat was designed by Harley Elmore, Tuhon in Sayoc Kali and Full Instructor under Dan Inosanto. It was designed and created after years of working with the highest level of military operators and is the result of their direct feedback and Tuhon Harley's lifetime of training.

The Rat is specifically designed for ease of carry, concealment and deployment. The length lets the user achieve the thrusting depth needed to reach deep arteries and internal organs. The width allows for blade to fit into tight openings in bone.

The narrow spear like point configuration is designed for maximum penetration through web gear and clothing. The unique finger choil allows for quick, dexterous changes in direction and prevents riding up onto blade’s edge

THE HANDLE

This design actually grabs you as you draw the blade, creating a positive purchase on the handle and a consistent draw. Each "hump" on the handle is designed to become progressively more aggressive, ensuring a consistent and positive grip on the blade when drawing from concealment with speed. The G-10 handle scales allow for comfort, durability and low profile design to improve concealment.

There are two handle types to choose from:

The stock handle has minor checkering that feels like a very light and smooth stipple.

The contoured handle has a more aggressive grip with deeper groves.

THE TRAINER

The trainer is an exact replica of the live blade but with a couple of small, important changes. The tip of the Rat trainer is 0.5" shorter than the real blade. When you practice with a trainer, you touch your target with the tip but cannot enter the target.

The Rat blade is not intended for use on hard surfaces. Misuse can cause the tip to bend, dull or break. If practicing thrusting techniques be sure to utilize your training blade.
