Reate T6000
The Reate T6000 is a powerhouse of a folding knife, and the sheet backs the word up: a 3.1-inch blade over a full titanium frame at 8.9 ounces. That's the mass of a large folder packed into a mid-size footprint, which is exactly the point — Reate built the T6000 for those who want overbuilt without wanting big.
Reate T6000 in Satin M390
The current build runs a satin M390 blade on 0.157-inch stock, the powder stainless that holds a working edge through daily cutting and shrugs off pocket corrosion, over a bead blasted titanium frame set off by a zirconium backspacer, the one piece of dress hardware on an otherwise all-business build.
Overbuilt Titanium Frame Lock
Lockup is a titanium frame lock with the rock-solid engagement the T series is known for, and carry is a right-hand tip-up pocket clip. The fit and finish that made the T6000's reputation is the same precision machining that runs through Reate's whole catalog, applied to a knife dense enough that you always know it's clipped to the pocket, at 7.9 inches overall and 4.6 inches closed.
Reate T6000 vs T3000
The two share a blade class and split on philosophy. The Reate T3000 puts a 3-inch M390 blade on a 3.5-ounce frame with micarta inlays and blue hardware, the light dress take, while the T6000 puts 3.1 inches of the same steel on 8.9 ounces of titanium. Same maker, same size cutting edge, opposite builds: carry the T3000 and forget it's there, carry the T6000 and enjoy that you can't.
