The Scout Knife

Four tools:

  • Blade

  • Can Opener

  • Bottle Opener

  • Awl

American made. Find one. Buy one.

Unfortunately, it has become more difficult to find a scout knife made in the United States. With Victorinox dominating the multitool market and offering their own Alox Pioneer (which is a great tool it’s own right), I fear we won’t see this particular tool being made in the US for the foreseeable future.

The AG Russell Premium Scout was handed down to me and I was fortunate enough to nab the Danger Ranger Bear Scout Knife offered by Prometheus Design Werx. The scout knife often served as a right of passage. I will hold onto these, and hopefully pass them down to my children when they come of age. I recommend you do the same. Happy Father’s Day!
