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
Did you know an owl's feathers fluoresce? Now your Scout Feather can too with the 'Wise Owl' Glow Option!
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 have a few different blades from OE and this one is probably my main work horse. I use it to cut twine when feeding the animals, scribe light lines for carpentry, and fix a lot of things I would normally turn to a chisel for and all this with the righty when I'm a lefty (because lefty wasn't a thing yet when I bought my current version). I pocket carry this blade all the time around home and I switch to the scout when out. Definitely a solid knife and much more compact that the other chisel blades I looked at. At some point I'll pick up a lefty and I can say after years of use now that this is a blade you won't regret owning.

Addendum to my previous review
I had left my previous 4-star review, and was contacted very quickly by their customer service. I was sent, free of charge, another sheath for my Flicker. Even if the new sheath hadn't fixed the "rattling" problem (which it did), I would still have updated my rating to 5 stars for such outstanding customer service. A great little knife from a company that stands behind their product. Good job!
Thank you for taking the time to send a reivew and and update. We're so glad to hear the new sheath remedied the problem and that we could be of help. Send us some pics of your adventures with Flicker Feather. Happy adventuring!
I love my carabiner and scratch key. I initially thought the key would be some gerryrigged contraption maybe with glue where the sparker would fall off easily but it is literally like part of the key.
But more importantly their team hand-wrote me a note for purchasing this product alone! It wasnt even part of a huge haul or anything, literally just one item! I appreciate the dedication which is why Im writing this review too :))
FIRST of ALL -- I have only had it for 3 weeks so I have not had an opportunity to really test it. BUT i do wear it and use it frequently and I really like it's whole concept. It has been a big hit with all of my acquaintances, especially the old FOGEYS at breakfast every morning at our local Greasy Spoon. Even had a Mature lady want and received all necessary data to purchase one thought she was going to steal MINE.
Thanks Again from North Florida at the beginning of the Suwannee River and only twenty minutes to the Fabulous Okefenokee Swamp
