Esee Avispa vs Ontario RAT 1

In this video I compare the famous Ontario RAT 1 to the Esee Avispa folding knives. These are both popular and budget folders that are similar but yet just asking for a VS video. Check it out and let me know your thoughts.

I have had the RAT 1 in AUS8 for a good while now and I do really like it. Mine doesn't have a 90 degree spine tho. When I have the spare money I plan to get the avispa in D2. Thanks for the video, God bless

[@thelasthuntsmanoutdoors]

Thank you. Both are great blades and you’ll be happy with either

[@kennethrimmer1883]

Great deal for either one

[@thelasthuntsmanoutdoors]

Both are great

[@josephthennes4656]

I like both but knives with a single scale on one side drives me crazy, it's like they forgot something. I can't get past it

[@thelasthuntsmanoutdoors]

I agree. I personally like the rat better

[@Daniel.Liddicoat]

Does your have a carbon fibre finish on that one scale. Mine does and it's slick as hell to handle. Wish I had a G10 scale on mine.

i have bent a liner on rats and i bought an avispa and it just feels so much better

Rat 1 in d2

[@thelasthuntsmanoutdoors]

Solid choice

[@Daniel.Liddicoat]

Oooh, hold my beer.
ESEE Avispa in D2 Black out CF
aaaand the new Red RAT 1 in S35VN.
Sorry couldn't resist.
The Red RAT as they've dubbed it has buttery smooth action and actual G10 scales as opposed to whatever it had before.
Unfortunately it's $100. Worth it if you really like RAT and ESEE. Ontario released this magic and I'm loving it.
