What makes Flicker Feather the best EDC knife and a must for camping, adventure, woodworking, bushcraft, hunting, fishing, and survival?Ā Ā
It's got to be that it is so much more than just a knife. It not only cuts, but it also sparks fire, sharpens in the field, and signals for help.Ā
FLICKER FEATHER: EDC Chisel Blade
The Northern Flicker is a woodpecker found in North America. Their chisel beaks have been known to torment my dad's cabin in Eastern Texas. How's that for name inspiration? This little chisel blade cuts, sparks fire, sharpens, and signals.
That's 4 Elements of Adventure so you can Explore with Confidence!Ā Ā
4 ELEMENTS FOR ADVENTURE
CUT:Ā Confidently cut with this unique, small & mighty fixed blade.Ā Flicker Feather's chisel blade is a unique tool - ideal for making a fine, straight cut and known for its strength, ease of sharpening, chopping, and cutting hole pattern. Ā Use it for woodworking, bushcraft, and in the kitchen as your go-to camp culinary knife.Ā
COMBUSTION:Ā Throw generous sparks by striking the 90-degree spine against the hex-shaped, threaded ferrocerium rod integrated into the sheath.Ā
SIGNAL:Ā Be loud. Be found. A loud, 115b safety whistle is attached to the butt of the knife on a reflective mini lanyard strung through the hex driver.
SHARPEN: A sharp knife is a safe knife. Thanks to the 800-grit diamond sharpening plate built directly into the sheath, you can hone Flicker on the go.Ā
ADDITIONAL FEATURES:
DRIVE:Ā Tighten or replace the threaded 1/4ā hex ferro rod using the built-in driver. The sheath is fully threaded so the ferro rod can be inserted backward, providing additional purchase/grip in holding the sheath and striking the knife's spine against the ferro rod.
CARRY OPTIONS:Ā Multiple carry options make Flicker Feather secure and accessible. The form-fitted, secure-lock sheath features a heavy-duty clip, specifically designed to fit 3/4" webbing (common size of sternum straps on backpacks). MOLLE compatible. Or wear Flicker Feather as a neck knife by threading the cordage of your choice (we suggest our custom survival cord) through the two larger sheath rivets. Flicker Feather is lightweight (2.3 oz unsheathed, 4.2 oz sheathed) and easy to carry. Now includes additional belt clip and hardware.
GIFT IDEAS:Ā Ideal for any outdoor enthusiast, whether novice or expert, for men, and women, EDC, cooking, fishing, camping, hiking, and bushcraft, stored in your emergency kit in the car or bug-out bag, so youāre ready for any outdoor adventure or emergency. Unique gift for the man or woman in your life that has everything. Give it for Christmas, as a stocking stuffer, or for any other holiday, birthday, Motherās Day, Fatherās Day, or other occasion such as a wedding, graduation or thank you gift for a coach, mentor, teacher, friend, or neighbor.
BLADE ANGLE OPTIONS:Available with a right-handed grind to the blade, or a left-handed grind.
WISE OWL GLOW OPTION:Available in a fluorescent, glow-in-the-dark handle option and a GLOW whistle.Ā

What's in a name?Ā
Why is there a theme of feathers in the naming of the knives? Along with being lightweight and beautiful like these knives, feathers hearken back to my Native American heritage.Ā Read more here.

I absolutely love this little knife. I use it around the house to break down boxes, in my shop to chisel out pieces of wood, in my garden to clip off tomato suckers, and of course back packing. I've been searching for the same knife only a little bigger. This knife holds its sharpness even after constant use. I love it. This is now my favorite knife out of a plethora of cutting instruments. Well done.

We are thrilled to hear that our Flicker Feather Survival EDC Chisel Blade has become your go-to knife for various tasks around the house, in your shop, backpacking and even gardening!

Exactly as advertised
The knife is just what the brochure led me to believe. It's small and light enough that it will get carried on backcountry trips and day hikes closer to home....every time. A video demonstrating the best method for extracting the knife from the hard sheath would be helpful. I might be old but I'm not weak and I struggled mightily to remove the knife the first time.

Lightweight Companion Knife
I will start with what I liked. I backed the Kickstarter, and received my knife very quickly. I like the weight and compactness of the knife and sheath. I can clip it inside my pocket like a folder and not even notice it's there. The ferro rod throws a lot of sparks.
The handle is a little small, and can get uncomfortable in my hands, but that may be just a personal preference. My biggest complaint is that I bought it to use it as a boot knife, and within a week of wearing it that way, I noticed that the sheath had somehow gotten looser around the blade, and now it was rattling. Not that the blade could fall out, it was very firmly held in the sheath. But the knife could "wiggle" inside the sheath, causing it to rattle. Not sure how this happened.
Overall, a nice companion knife to take with you instead of a folder, with some very good features.
We appreciate your feedback on our Flicker Feather Survival EDC Chisel Blade. We're glad to hear that you received your knife quickly and that you like its lightweight and compact design, the ferro rod and other features.

Tough, Versatile Little Knife
This little knife has quickly become a favorite of mine. Iāve used it to shave wood and start fires using the ferro rod a couple times and itās very user friendly.
Iāve also tried it for small game processing out of curiosity and it performed surprisingly well despite not having the traditional curved blade. It was able to chop through small bones without any noticeable effect on the bladeās edge.
Outdoor Element designed such a great and unique tool!

We're also glad to hear that it performed well during small game processing. We appreciate your support and thank you for choosing Outdoor Element!
I took some time to test the knife before reviewing. So far I haven't encountered any problems with it. The blade is still sharp as out of the box after several months of use. I have used it to whittle as well as cutting several things with it, including a can and no problems whatsoever. I also tested the sheath sharpener with another dull knife and it made it sharp again. The whistle is very loud too. Sadly I couldn't test the fire rod yet, but I am sure it is as amazing as the rest of the knife.
The customer service was also exceptional. I ordered the knife and had a question about the estimated delivery time and Joe responded to me super quickly and was helpful as well. One of the perks of shopping at a small business!
Would definitely recommend and I am already thinking about getting another knife from outdoor element...!

The scout feather is just the best there is out there in my experience. Exactly what Iāve been looking for and now that I have found it Iām complete š„°
It was love at first spark! š Weāre honored to hear you say Scout Feather makes you complete. May your trails be wild and your kindling dry. Stay sharp and keep exploring with confidence!
This is a very well built product that i will carry in my bugout bag. It provides good airflow and will work great in making the fire burn from tinder to kindling.
Thanks for your fantastic review! We're glad you're able to put the bellows to good use! Happy adventuring!
