I’m surprised the aftermarket hasn’t come up with a solution to this, just a solid bronze washers at the correct thickness.
The tolerances aren’t tight enough on the production models to have a one size fits all solution
@@GustavoHernandez1 that makes no sense. A bronze washer 0.125mm thicker will compensate for the lack of Teflon. I am led to believe from reliable sources that the secondary washer is to prevent the primary ones from binding, for a smoother action.
They tear up on the lock bar. They are oversized and protrude in to the lock bar seating area. That's why only one side is torn up. I have the same on my RAT 1. Not the rust.
I wonder if they will fix the size?
@@KnifeThoughts I bought my Orange Model 1 about a year ago, and I had to trim the washer down so it was the exact size as the brass one on the lock bar side. I purchased 2 more some 5 weeks ago to keep aside brand new (desert tan and grey versions). I'll have a look tomorrow as it's almost 11pm here in New Zealand, And see if the newer ones have addressed the issue. Watch this space 😀
RAT 2 is a great EDC size 🔪 that just does the job and has a good action,for the price it's hard to beat,, JMHO.
It looks beautiful 😍
I'm in Canada. I can't find a RAT 1 brick and mortar anywhere, and I can only find them for 50+ CAD at online Canadian retailers. Seven dollars... just kill me already...
you can get that same green Rat 1 from Knifecenter for $22.95
Nice I’ll probably just do that
Great knife! #22aday!
Glad to see you like the Loctite stick!!!
Thanks so much Joseph!
Imagine how much I would’ve used on all those screws in my old method 🤣
It’s definitely pricey, but for knife maintenance it should last your a lifetime!!
Send it in and they will give you a new knife.
What a horrible flaw in a good knife.
