The Reate EXO Performance brings an unmistakable blend of innovative engineering, rugged materials, and versatile cutting performance to the gravity knife category. Built around the concept of “2 knives in 1,” this distinctive design contains two sharp blades, giving you two cutting options in one compact, highly collectible package.
Each 3.1-inch blade is crafted from Nitro-V steel and hardened to 60 HRC for a well-balanced combination of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The dual-blade setup features contrasting finishes, with a stonewashed blade paired with a satin-finished serrated blade. This combination gives the EXO Performance a bold appearance while providing two different cutting configurations for a range of everyday cutting tasks.
The blue aluminum handle delivers a durable yet lightweight foundation for the knife while adding a striking splash of color to the design. Its distinctive stripe pattern gives the handle additional visual character, creating a modern, technical aesthetic that stands out in a collection. The stainless steel pocket clip is finished in black PVD, complementing the blue handle while providing a durable and practical carry solution.
At 7.6 inches when open and 4.5 inches when closed, the EXO Performance 2 offers an impressive amount of capability without an oversized footprint. Its 0.118-inch blade thickness provides a solid balance between cutting performance and structural strength, while the overall weight of just 4.58 ounces (130g) keeps the knife surprisingly manageable for its robust construction.
The gravity-operated EXO platform gives this knife its unmistakable character. Designed for enthusiasts who appreciate innovative mechanisms and unconventional designs, the Performance stands apart from traditional folders with its dual-blade configuration and distinctive operating concept. Whether you're adding it to a collection or simply want an EDC knife that refuses to blend into the crowd, this Reate delivers plenty of personality.
Every knife comes packaged in a special box, adding an extra touch of presentation for collectors and gift-givers. With its blue stripe-pattern aluminum handle, dual Nitro-V blades, stonewashed and satin serrated finishes, and black PVD stainless steel clip, the Reate EXO Performance is built to be as eye-catching as it is distinctive.
