"The universal problem with today's knives is that they are designed and built by people who don't use knives for anything but to cut strings and open boxes. We need knives designed by guys who are experts in their use. No frills, no sheaths the size of boat paddles - just 100% effective form and function."
-Tuhon Harley Elmore
The Rat Training Package Includes:
- Rat Blade
- Blue Rat Training Blade
- Tenicor Carry Sheath
- Tenicor Storage Sheath
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.
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 but important changes.
The tip of the RAT Trainer is 0.5 inches 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. (blue guns, blue Claymores, etc.)
The Rat blade is not intended for wood or an other hard surface. Misuse can cause the tip to bend, dull or break. If practicing thrusting techniques be sure to utilize your training blade.
*Due to the nature of the live blade and trainer feeling exactly the same: PRIOR TO TRAINING, ALWAYS VISUALLY ENSURE YOU HAVE THE TRAINER IN YOUR SHEATH AND YOUR LIVE WEAPON SAFELY SECURED.
The Sheath
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 and 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.
