Extrema Ratio Contact C Desert Knife
Unleash precision, durability and tactical versatility with the Extrema Ratio Contact C Desert Knife—an optimized close-quarters companion engineered for professionals and enthusiasts alike. Forged by Italy’s elite knife artisans since 1997, this compact powerhouse brings the legendary performance of our full-size CONTACT into a sleeker, lighter package without sacrificing the raw power and reliability you demand in the field.
At the heart of the Contact C lies a Böhler N690 stainless steel spear-point blade, expertly heat-treated to 58 HRC for exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance. A full-length fuller lightens each swing, while a stone-washed finish masks wear and ensures a non-reflective surface. Balanced around a robust threaded tang, the impact-grade Forprene® grip wraps your hand in confidence, delivering fatigue-resistant comfort and unwavering control, even under the harshest desert extremes.
Carry and deploy with ease using the injection-molded, M.O.L.L.E.-compatible nylon scabbard. Its integrated dampening system silences blade rattle, and a twin-button safety loop locks the knife into place. When every second counts, a single press on the trigger-style lever releases the Contact C with fluid precision—ready for swift, silent deployment.
Whether you’re clearing confined spaces, prepping field rations, or blazing new survival routes, the Contact C Desert Knife stands ready to perform. Backed by Extrema Ratio’s storied heritage of supplying tactical units across Europe, this knife delivers uncompromising quality and value. Rugged yet refined, compact yet commanding, it’s the ultimate edge for those who refuse to settle for anything less than excellence.
