Extrema Ratio RAOII Expeditions Field Review

Here I review the Extrema Ratio RAOII Expeditions heavy duty folding and locking knife. The RAOII Expeditions is capable of functioning similarly to a fixed blade knife when the safety pin is inserted into the body of the knife. In this mode, it is virtually impossible for the knife to fail with exception of total destruction of both knife and user's hand (I have written extensively about this). I give this folder the serious tests in the Australian bush and jungle. Bashing into Eucalyptus hardwoods; chopping into sugar cane; cutting palm stalks (both green and dead); cutting palm bracts; carving seasoned Eucalyptus sticks; cutting through 3 lobster tails; bashing down lantana bush and cutting through tree tomatoes (the latter a test for over all sharpness after all of the aforementioned tasks. You be the judge! Essentially the Extrema Ratio RAOII Expeditions is the same as the RAOII, with exception of a Desert warfare type anodizing on the T6082 scales and a non coated acid treated stone washed N690 blade of 6mm thickness. For those who prefer a non-coated blade because they want to use the knife for food preparation and are concerned about using "coated blades" then Extrema have listened to you. One still gets a "stealthy" looking knife because the blade finish is still dark and non reflective. They have placed a stronger spring into the Expeditions model for the locking bar, so greater pressure is required to actuate the locking bar (which make for better sense for a non military model which is intended for "bush crafty" purposes). Therefore the amount of force required to open the blade by simply flicking it out is greater too- no need to be flicking blades out like some psycho if you're doing the bushcraft thing IMHO. The fixing/safety pin secures the knife ether open or closed and when open, the knife can take a real beating for a folding knife with zero play in the mechanism. Such a bating i would never undertake with a regular folder. Using a roller locking mechanism (and this knife uses a thick roller bar) also makes for a seriously strong locking mechanism. Let's not talk about any BS "testing" trying to fail the locking mechanism; as discussed extensively by me on the social media, any such "forces" would invariably destroy ones hands should they remain in contact with the handle (of any knife for that matter). Disclaimer (please read). Just a note, because it has been mentioned. Of course the right tool for jobs presented within is not this folding knife, it is a machete and bush saw. The sugar cane was cut down with a machete and normally of course I'm not hacking my way through lantana undergrowth with a folding knife. I'm using a machete. These demonstrations are only to show what this folding knife can endure without damage. Personally I do not recommend conducting any such tasks with a folding knife, even this one (unless you had to, in which case this particular knife would survive undamaged). These sorts of tasks in the bush/jungle are for the machete or parang and or a chainsaw (on your own property (which I am in this particular video). Even then cutting routinely such hardwoods requires a lot of chainsaw maintenance.
