Cold Steel Mackinac Hunter Folding Knife Brown Micarta Handle AUS 10A Steel CS-CS-FL-36MAK-BRST

The Cold Steel Mackinac Hunter Folding Knife in brown Micarta carries the spirit of classic hunting knives into the modern age without losing the toughness Cold Steel is known for. Inspired by traditional North American hunting folders, this knife blends timeless lines with materials and engineering meant to stand up to serious use in the field, on the trail, or as a dependable everyday carry.

At the heart of the Mackinac Hunter is a 3 5/8-inch hollow-ground clip point blade crafted from AUS 10A stainless steel. This steel is chosen for its strong balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening, making it a smart choice for hunters and outdoorsmen who actually use their knives. The clip point profile delivers excellent control for detail work while still offering plenty of belly for slicing and processing tasks. With a blade thickness of 3.4mm, it’s built to cut with authority without feeling bulky in the pocket.

The handle measures 4 7/8 inches and combines aluminum liners with warm brown Micarta scales for a grip that feels both traditional and confident. Micarta is well known for maintaining traction in wet or dry conditions, and it develops character over time, giving each knife a slightly personal feel. The handle shape is ergonomic and familiar, filling the hand comfortably whether you’re wearing gloves or not. At 8 1/2 inches overall and weighing just 4.8 ounces, the Mackinac Hunter strikes a balance between solid construction and easy carry.

Security is handled by Cold Steel’s legendary Tri-Ad Lock, a locking system respected for its strength and reliability. It’s designed to absorb shock and resist failure under hard use, giving you confidence that the blade stays locked when it matters most. This makes the Mackinac Hunter a dependable companion for hunters, campers, and anyone who values a folding knife that won’t flinch when put to work.

Part of the Mackinac Hunter Series, this brown Micarta version stands out with a refined, heritage-inspired look that pairs perfectly with modern performance. It’s a folding knife that honors tradition while embracing today’s demands, built by Cold Steel for those who expect more from their gear.
