Blue Ridge Scout
Kydex sheath
2mm Kydex, heat-formed to your blade, with an ambidextrous leather belt loop for scout or vertical carry.
A compact, full-tang working knife built around a steep sabre grind and a 20 degree edge. Ships with a heat-formed ambidextrous Kydex sheath, ready for scout or vertical carry.
The Scout came out of the Waterberg, a knife sized to live on a belt through long days in hard country, and tough enough for anti-poaching units and outdoorsmen who don't get second chances. Today it's made in the Shenandoah Valley, unchanged in intent and better than ever in execution.
Steel
AEB-L is regarded as the 52100 of the stainless world, with the added benefit of corrosion resistance. Chosen specifically for a heavy-use working knife. Run at 61 HRC.
CPM MagnaCut is a super steel with superior edge retention and remarkable corrosion resistance. Run at 63 HRC for owners who push a blade hard between sharpenings.
Heat treatment
Plate quenched, cryogenically treated in liquid nitrogen, then double tempered. That is the difference between a knife that holds and one that chips.
Handle
G10, a fibreglass reinforced resin, rock-sculpted for texture, fastened with T20 torx head screws and fitted with a 1mm shadow line for added grip.
Finish
Mill-spec blanks, hand ground on the knife grinder, then stonewashed so honest wear disappears into the finish.
Sheath
Military grade 2mm Kydex with 8–8 eyelets, a retention jacking bolt and an ambidextrous bovine hide belt loop for scout or vertical carry.

Tested where it counts.
The RitualMaintenance
Carry it well.
Care for it properly.
Wipe the blade with a dry cloth after each use. For stubborn residue, warm water and a non-abrasive cloth. Avoid dishwashers and harsh detergents.
Always dry thoroughly before storing or sheathing. AEB-L and MagnaCut are highly stain-resistant, but no steel likes trapped moisture.
Store dry, sheathed and out of reach of children. For long-term storage, a thin film of mineral oil adds an extra layer of protection.
Maintain the 20 degree edge. A fine ceramic rod or strop handles routine touch-ups. Send it back to us if it ever needs a full re-grind.
Rinse the Kydex with warm water if it picks up grit, and adjust the jacking bolt to set your retention. Air-dry fully before re-inserting the blade.
Ownership

code.
A Lionhearted blade is a serious tool. Ownership should feel just as considered as the craft behind it.
01
Know your laws
Review knife-carry laws where you live and travel before you carry.
02
Store it safely
Sheathed, dry, out of reach. A tool, not a toy.
03
Carry with intent
A blade comes out for a reason and goes back the same way.
04
Respect the tool
Built as a tool. Carried, used and respected as one.

First fixed-blade I haven't outgrown. The grind holds an edge through whitetail season without a touch-up.
