Review of multi-tools "Ratnik"
The manufacturer of goods SARO has repeatedly performed at all kinds of amateur and professional army events, presenting its unique products. This organization has been a real favorite in the production of such accessories for several years. She delivers her equipment to various security forces.
You can always see a lot of new knives for the army, buy products online over the Internet, and it always has a huge number of consumer reviews. But of all the products of this manufacturer the 6E6 multitool knife from military ammunition called "Warrior" stands out especially.
Peculiarities
In order to decide in favor of purchasing this unique tool, it is first useful to understand both its numerous characteristics and some of its features, as well as to understand the ergonomics of the product.
Of course, it is worth noting that this product does not differ in budgetary price, and for an ordinary person its cost may seem too high. but the reliability and ease of use will outweigh this insignificant moment several times, therefore, when choosing, fallen on such a product, it is unlikely that anyone will be able to save money.
The "Warrior" set consists of the knife itself, pliers, a second cutter with a saw, a ruler, an awl, a stripping tool, two screwdrivers and a file.
The first thing that catches the eye of any person is the appearance of the product. Knife "Ratnik" does not look particularly impressive, which repels for aesthetic reasons from its acquisition.
However, this multi-knife is quite often bought not only by the military, but also by ordinary users, which prompts considerations of its apparent effectiveness.... By weight criteria, the instrument does not differ in the necessary lightness (400 g), but there are reasons for this.
The product includes a clip for fasteners, which, according to buyers, is absolutely inconvenient. There is also an additional hole with a ring for attaching a loop - this is quite unusual. The handle of the knife is made of plastic spacers, it fits tightly in the palm of your hand, does not move, there are no inconveniences.
This is a drop-down version of the knife... The pliers have a protruding head, which is very convenient, because they can easily squeeze the fuse, there is an awl. According to the developer of the tool, all parts were made separately on special equipment. It is for this knife that there is no interchangeability of parts - it will not be possible to make additional elements, since the military product was made according to a special technical assignment of the Armed Forces.
Specifications
- Steel, from which the product is made, also deserves special mention - it is of low quality. It is also worth noting that the sample previously weighed 100 g lighter, and used the latest stock. The set includes two types of different screwdrivers.
- Assembly... The product comes in an excellent case, which is generously treated with a protective lubricant. In the case itself there is a small file that is used to sharpen the product.
- Blade... According to customer reviews, the first thing to do after a person receives their purchase is to sharpen the knife blade. The knife that comes or is sold in a package, even bread for a sandwich cannot be cut without some effort. For this reason, the product must be sharpened immediately. It is worth noting that the steel of the blade is quite malleable - this will facilitate the turning process.
There is a rod - it is convenient to open the knife.All other tools in comparison are tight to open, while they are all hidden. The most excellent of the products presented in the knife are the pliers, which are quite convenient to work with. But if you squeeze hard, then the nippers, unfortunately, become dull.
Reviews
It is worth noting that buyers speak negatively about the line, which additionally acts as a saw and an awl. Cutting properties are in great doubt, although the saw moves tolerably on wood, but on metal there is simply not enough length. The ruler does not add functionality.
Buyers say that it is very difficult to pull out the awl, which is probably why the manufacturer put the file in the kit, since it is very problematic to simply remove the screwdriver and awl without prying it off. In connection with this circumstance, problems may arise under field conditions.
Users note that the cover that comes with the knife is hastily sewn, the seams are of poor quality, and the product consists of cheap Chinese-made fabric. The case goes like a pouch, but the fastenings, it is worth noting, are very well made. It will still be very convenient to take out the "Ratnik" knife, albeit from such a bag.
6E6 knife is a good universal product... Customer reviews speak of good functionality of the knife, but poor quality of materials. Many owners are disappointed with the performance in the field.
If the operation of this tool on a camping is important or if you plan to make a gift to your neighbor, then such a product will not upset the user in any way. However, in the event that difficult field tests are coming, then this multitool will rather add a lot of problems to the user that will have to be solved somehow. And in the field, this is not so easy to do.
It is worth noting that the number of tools pleases everyone, but many of them are of poor quality - they will not ease the fate of the owner of the product. The weight of the kit is quite large for a pocket knife, which also needs to be taken into account based on the purpose of its use. It is surprising that the tool is supplied to the military, because it is far from ideal.
With such things, everything is known only by the method of trial. For this reason, it is difficult to recommend refusing to purchase, because each fighter has a different hand, and, perhaps, for one the weight will be an absolutely unacceptable factor, and the ruler is the most necessary of all the additional tools of the kit, and for the other, nothing but the blade itself is not. will play no decisive role in the purchase.
