Awarded BEST SURVIVAL KNIFE by Backpacker Magazine!
What makes Scout Feather the best EDC knife and a must for camping, adventure, hunting, fishing, and survival?
It's got to be that it is so much more than just a knife. Not only does it cut, it also sparks fire, sharpens in the field, and signals for help.
SCOUT FEATHER: EDC Drop Point Blade
A scout is prepared; a scout knows the environment and loves the outdoors. Confidence radiates from a scout. Welcome to the Scout Feather -- the ideal tool in the quiver of preparedness. This small and mighty blade cuts, sparks fire, sharpens, and signals.
That's four Elements of Adventure so you can Explore with Confidence!
4 ELEMENTS FOR ADVENTURE
CUT: Confidently cut with this small yet mighty blade. From camp kitchen to campfire, Scout is nimble enough to whittle, strong enough to baton.
Scout Feather's drop point traditional profile and saber grind make this little fixed blade incredibly sharp and strong. With exceptional durability, Scout chops, cuts, and pierces with ease. It's the ultimate camp culinary knife and so much more. Scout takes a beating and retains a razor-sharp edge.
COMBUSTION: Throw generous sparks by striking the 90-degree spine against the hex-shaped, threaded ferrocerium rod integrated into the sheath.
SIGNAL: 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. Hone the blade on the go using the ceramic honing V notch in the sheath.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES:
DRIVE:Tighten or replace the threaded 1/4” 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:Multiple carry options make Scout 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 Scout Feather as a neck knife by threading the cordage of your choice (we suggest our custom survival cord) through the two larger sheath rivets. Scout Feather is lightweight (2.3 oz unsheathed, 4.0 oz sheathed) and easy to carry. Now includes additional belt clip and hardware.
GIFT IDEAS: 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 you’re 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, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, or other occasion such as a wedding, graduation or thank you gift for a coach, mentor, teacher, friend, or neighbor.
WISE OWL GLOW OPTION:Available in a fluorescent, glow-in-the-dark handle option and a GLOW whistle.
Did you know an owl's feathers fluoresce? Now your Scout Feather can too with the 'Wise Owl' Glow Option!
OD GREEN OPTION:Available with a blackened blade, an OD Green handle, orange whistle, and light gray sheath.
GRIM GRANITE LIMITED EDITION: This is the OD Green Option with custom-etched Grim Granite (by Gordon Crum) logo on the blackened blade, an OD Green handle, orange whistle, and light gray sheath. (Note: the lighting for our photo causes the blade to look darker than the OD Green Option but they are the same knife. Only difference is this one comes with the Grim Granite logo on one side of the blade.)
What's in a name?
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. Read more here.

a gift for my son and hiking partner
I purchased this as a gift for my son and hiking partner. He has just received it, has not used it on trail yet. But, he loves the craftsmanship, the feel of it in his hand and the numerous features. I had it engraved for him and he really enjoys that personal touch.
Thanks for sharing and for the 5-star review! We're thrilled your son loves the knife and that the engraving added that extra touch. We hope he enjoys carrying it on many hiking adventures with you in the years to come. We'd love to see pictures and hear of your adventures. Feel free to drop images here or on our Instagram @outdoor.element. Thanks again for your wonderful review! Happy trails!

Understood the Assignment
For a while I've been looking for an EDC knife that would accomplish a couple of personal preferences. I've wanted a fixed blade that would wear on my belt backside. It would also have a neck carry option that didn't weigh a lot and feel like it was pulling on my neck. I'd tried several that just never worked for me.
Enter the Scout Feather! Not only do I forget I'm carrying on my belt or around my neck, it is the perfect size to accomplish field tasks that other large knives are typically used for. Prior to purchasing, I had some concerns about durability and quality. I can tell you this knife is tough! It holds an edge very well, fits my large hand perfectly, and has the added benefits of an integrated sharpener and ferro rod.
You can't go wrong with this knife and the carry options it offers!
Thanks for the detailed 5-star review! We’re glad the Scout Feather checked all the boxes for you—lightweight, versatile, and tough. Appreciate you sharing how it’s working out in both belt and neck carry. Thanks for the pic too! Happy adventuring!
Good to light my canaster stove, not so good for my alcohol stove
I just got it yesterday so I don't have a lot of experience with it. However I did try it with the two stoves I use. It works better with my canaster stove but I had difficulty directing the spark into my alcohol stove, which is my go to stove. I will get better at using it. You need to give us a little time before you ask for a review.
