Where Comfort Meets Capability. Co-Designed by Steve Rinella.

SPECIAL COLLABORATION

DESIGNED BY HUNTERS FOR HUNTERS

Meet the MKC x Rinella Stubhorn, born from our exciting collaboration with Steven Rinella, the renowned conservationist, hunting advocate, and host of the hit Netflix show MeatEater. This blade is a true all-rounder, ready to tackle every task in a hunter's journey — from the moment you bag your game to the final preparation of a hard-earned meal by the campfire.

The Stubhorn’s unique design truly stands out among the full MKC lineup, but capture’s Steven's clear vision: create a blade that's not only versatile enough to handle the entire hunting and harvesting process but also inviting and approachable for newcomers to the hunting world.

The Stubhorn embodies Steve's welcoming spirit. Both highly capable and highly accessible, this knife will feel right at home in the hands of a seasoned pro or a complete beginner.

Big On Comfort

At just under 9 inches from tip to tail, the Stubhorn might seem imposing at first glance, but trust us, it's a gentle giant.

We've put a full grind on the front to keep the weight down, so it's not as heavy as it looks. Tipping the scales at about 5.25 ounces, this blade sports a fine trailing point and a large belly, making it the perfect companion for any task.

Our Most Capable Handle

The Stubhorn's handle is where the magic really happens. Made from bulletproof G-10, it's thick, ultra-comfortable, and feels like shaking hands with an old friend from the moment you grip it.

The oversized safety guard at the front gives you peace of mind, while the near-cylindrical shape allows for multiple comfortable grips, no matter the size of your hand or the task at hand. Even after a long, chilly day in the field, this handle will feel like a warm handshake.

A Point That Means Business

With a surgical tip and a slight trailing point made from Magnacut Stainless Steel, the Stubhorn is reminiscent of a skinning knife, but is a true all-around hunting blade.

Steve places a premium on clean opening cuts, so incorporating a surgical cutting tip was a no-brainer. Beyond that, the Stubhorn maintains a clean, classic shape with no hard edges.

Little Details That Make A Big Difference

We've scalloped out the front of the blade so you can get a pinch grip when you need that extra control.

And because we know you'll want to keep this beauty close, we've added a lanyard hole at the back for paracord or leather, making it easy to hang on your person or around camp.

EXCLUSIVE MKC OPEN CARRY SHEATH 2.0

Each Stubhorn comes with a USA Made, custom MKC Kydex sheath.

The sheath features a built-in retention screw to customize blade tension and allow for handle-down carrying. The Stubhorn sheath comes with a Kydex clip that allows you to carry your knife on a pack or belt loop, either horizontally or vertically.

Free Sharpening For Life & Beyond

Generations® is our promise to restore your knife to its original, unmatched working condition.

MKC will clean, sharpen, repair, and even reshape your blades when necessary, as well as rewrapping handles free of charge.

While we perform all necessary sharpening and maintenance, our aim is not to return your knife to its brand new appearance. Learn more about MKC Generations Promise.

Excited to use this knife!

I bought this knife to replace the only hunting knife I have ever used. I had my buck knife for 32 years and would’ve continued using it if it’s handled wouldn’t have failed. I really like the look and feel of this knife. It has a great feel, it’s extremely light, has an awesome and secure sheath, and the blade is thin and sharp like no other knife I have owned. I look forward to using it and testing its edge retention and durability, and I hope this to be the knife to get me through the rest of my life. My only wish is that I could swap the solid blaze orange scales for the orange and black (not available when I bought the knife), but that is just a cosmetic personal preference. I also want to thank MKC for their support of the RMEF. I am the chapter chair for the St. Louis Chapter and our MKC Banquet Edition knives are always a hit!

Thank you for your review Eric!

This is an amazing knife! My fiance butchered and skinned a buck and a cow elk without having to resharpen at all. The grip is really good even when covered in blood; it didn't even slip once out of my grip. Highly recommend for any hunter to medium to large game or every day use :)

Thank you for this useful feedback Emma. We appreciate the support. Congrats on a successful hunt.

Gift for son

I got this knife for my son, a true hunter and sportsman. He hunts and fishes all the entire year. He and his family enjoy what ever fish game is harvested. Deer, bear,turkey,goose, duck and small game and birds have all been on the table for many years. Your knife should give him a quaulty tool for years to come. I picked MKC for the good things being said and what I,ve read and heard.

Thank you for your review David. We appreciate the support.

Awesome knife

Top quality made knife. Love the light texture of the handle and how it feels in the hand. Extremely sharp out of the box. Bought the Blackfoot last year and field dressed and skinned 5 deer for myself and others and blade is still sharp. Highly recommend MKC knives

Thank you for your review Thomas! As always, feel free to send it in to us to get the factory edge put back on at any point.
