Every season starts with the right knife.
The Rut is a purpose-built hunting knife engineered for hunters who take the work seriously. Prototyped in early 2023 as the ground-up answer to what a dedicated field-dressing blade should be, the Rut brings together premium CPM MagnaCut steel, a straight-back blade geometry engineered for both precision cape work and long slicing cuts, tactile jimping at every point your hand rests, and an ergonomic handle that stays planted through the mess of real field dressing.
Choose from four G-10 handle colors and three canvas Micarta options, each precision-machined in the USA from authentic UltreX® composites. Every Rut ships with a redesigned modular Kydex sheath featuring an offset drop plate, low-profile retention screws, and a custom Kydex belt clip that keeps the knife firmly at your hip through every step, crouch, and drag out. From cape to quarter and from opening day to the last drag out, the Rut delivers.
