Individual RC-6 knives are only be available through our dealer / distributor network and will not be sold individually by RAT Cutlery Company. Contact your dealer to order. We do offer RC-6 Knives for sale as part of our comprehensive survival kit.

Note: Our knives are made from high carbon 1095 steel. And while 1095 is a top choice for professional cutlery designed for hard use, it will rust and stain if not properly cared for - especially on the cutting edge and around the laser engraving. It is the user's responsibility to keep the blades properly lubricated and cleaned. We suggest using a dry film rust inhibitor such as TUF-GLIDE or TUF-CLOTH.
