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.

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!

Love this knife
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.
Thank you so much for your positive review! 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! Thanks for sharing how useful Flicker is for everyday use. We appreciate you and your support!
I got this to puncture propane bottles and it worked amazingly. Wasn't sure if I would be strong enough to use it but it worked easily without any difficulty.
I bought the Orange Glow Scout on Outdoor Element's Whatnot.com auction. Adding to my collection of their other knives and cool gear. This is a great addition! Cool orange color, easy to find amongst your gear during the day, easy to find at night in a dark tent. They engrave the knives they sell on auction, this one has an owl on it. Gave an engraved Contour to my dad, he loves it! Check out OE Whatnot auctions, they have other really cool and unique engravings they only sell on the auctions.
Also including a pic of my Grey Glow Scout while out exploring. It has lasted years, has taken a bit of a beating, but still looks new and is still sharp. I always carry a Scout and Fiber Light with me. OE products are a great value.
The fuel canister recycle tool works great and solves the problem of being able to properly recycle the canisters. I've not yet had a chance to try the pot gripper but I am sure that it will work just as well.
This is a good backpack pillow that can also serve as a seat while hiking or in camp. It inflates quickly and seals with a press on the spring valve. I used two camp pillows as a substitute mattress when I forgot to bring my Thermarest. One under the hip and another under the shoulder plus a sweater under the head.
Itty bitty, but effective. Handy to have in my pocket for dog walks. I have one in the car and in my bag too. The glow in the dark is fun. Canāt say enough good things about this company. I donāt think you can go wrong with any purchase from them.
Love the 5-star review! Thanks!! Sometimes the best gear is the smallest gear. We're glad this little whistle has come in handy for you. Thanks for sharing so many examples of how to use it! It's always good to have a way to signal. Thanks for shopping with us and for your kind words!
