Great knives and service December 28, 2025 Reviewer: Ted Boysen from Lake Stevens , WA United States   I love my recently purchased basecamp.  I have been edc’ing my fastpak for several years, and I wanted something a little larger, but still very light.  I narrowed my choices down to the mkc speedgoat utra, the Bradford guardian 3.5 ul, the spiderco mule series, and the Rainier basecamp.  I am very pleased that I went with the basecamp, as the quality is excellent, and Tom has always provided excellent service.  Thank you.

Awesome knife January 16, 2025 Reviewer: Nick from AL United States   Knife is very nice and extremely sharp out of the box. The sheath fits very well and has a nice positive lock. The button on the belt attachment did not last long. The screw pulled through when I repositioned and tightened it. I just used another button from a sheath I recently got on Amazon.

Love it so much I bought a second one! January 17, 2023 Reviewer: Cole Baldwin from Seattle, WA United States   Great edge, nicely balanced, and light weight. I bought one as a gift and struggled to let it go so I decided to get on for myself. I plan to get many years of use in camping and backpacking with this knife. I also love that they are crafted with care locally in the PNW. Was this review helpful to you?

Basecamp Knife January 1, 2023 Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Oak Ridge , TN United States   The perfect sized EDC knife, it is well-made and light weight. I have a "few" knives to choose from and this has quickly become my favorite to   carry either on the belt with the included belt loops or pocket carry with a Ulti Clip.

The Do Everything Knife! November 19, 2021 Reviewer: Travis from Woodinville, WA United States   I bought this knife to keep in my sprinter van. It is the ultimate do everything knife, whether I toss it in my backpack or belt loop for a hike or need to slice up food for dinner. It’s amazing how versatile and lightweight it is for its size. It’s the only knife I need in the van and can use in every situation. Highly recommend it! Was this review helpful to you?

Mighty Fine Knife October 29, 2021 Reviewer: Jared from Temecula, CA   I’m very impressed with the basecamp. I was looking for a small fixed blade knife that I could easily throw in my gym shorts to work around the house, or strap onto my belt/backpack for a hike and the basecamp hits the mark. It’s incredibly light and there is so much blade length for its small size. It’s nimble, but capable. It fits so well in hand, and I always know here the edge is when using it. Jimping is perfect. Micarta is crafted beautifully, with function in mind. I really can’t say enough about this knife. If you’re on the fence about the basecamp, then  do yourself a favor and take the plunge - you won’t regret it! Was this review helpful to you?

Truly flawless EDC fixed blade October 25, 2021 Reviewer: John Michael from Steamboat Springs, CO   Really impressed by this blade, I’ve carried my fastpak for several years, I work as an outdoor guide in a variety of fields and a small handy razor sharp blade has innumerable uses in what I do. The basecamp is lovely to use, the extra blade length and handle lend itself to more powerful cuts and taking on bigger projects, though it still manages to disappear on my belt, so light and compact that I never notice it until I need it. Customer service was also outstanding, I emailed with a question and got a prompt and kind response back immediately. Rainier is swiftly becoming my favorite knife maker. Many thanks!

Excellent general outside use knife... September 9, 2021 Reviewer: olywa from Olympia, WA United States   ...although that's not to say I haven't been using it in the kitchen as well. This little fixed blade excels at everything I put it to. Perfect factory edge and a nice even grind on one of my favorite steels (Elmax). Comes with a well-fitted minimalist taco kydex sheath that offers great retention along with an easy release. I added another pull-snap and carry it at 10:30 o'clock for easy cross-draw access. Handles are comfortable for extended use and just long enough for a 4-finger grip. I also have a Fastpak that I love and can't wait to see future releases from Rainier! Was this review helpful to you?
