Outdoor Element’s Scout Feather & Fiber Light: The Perfect Combo for the Outdoors
Outdoor Element
In his May 2025 review for GAT Daily, survival expert Jim Cobb evaluates the Outdoor Element Scout Feather knife and Fiber Light fire starter.
Cobb highlights the Scout Feather's compact yet robust design, noting its 6.58-inch length and 2.65-inch VG10 steel blade, which make it suitable for everyday carry and demanding tasks alike.

He appreciates the knife's ergonomic handle, integrated ¼-inch hex driver, and the thoughtful inclusion of a signal whistle on the lanyard. The accompanying sheath impresses with its secure fit, built-in V-notch sharpener, and an attached ferrocerium rod that, when used with the knife's sharp spine, produces impressive sparks.
Cobb also praises the Fiber Light fire starter for its reliability and ease of use. Composed of finely ground wood fiber and wax, it ignites effortlessly with a spark and burns steadily, even after being submerged in water. This durability makes it an excellent choice for outdoor enthusiasts seeking dependable fire-starting solutions.
Overall, Cobb's review underscores our commitment at Outdoor Element to creating practical, high-quality gear that meets the needs of adventurers and survivalists.
