The McNees Performance Machined Ridge Runner is a hard-use fixed blade built with premium materials, precision craftsmanship, and the kind of rugged capability serious knife users demand. Designed for field work, camp chores, and everyday outdoor carry, this American-made fixed blade delivers a clean, functional profile backed by top-tier performance.
Its drop point blade is crafted from CPM MagnaCut stainless steel, one of the most sought-after modern blade steels available today. Known for its exceptional toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance, MagnaCut gives the Ridge Runner the durability needed for demanding cutting tasks in harsh conditions. The Atomic finish adds a rugged working look while helping conceal wear from heavy use. The versatile drop point profile provides excellent slicing performance and dependable control for utility cuts, food prep, and outdoor work alike.
Milled OD green G-10 handle scales offer a secure grip with excellent durability in wet, muddy, or unpredictable environments. The ergonomic handle design locks comfortably into the hand, giving the knife a confident feel during prolonged use. Full tang construction reinforces the build for maximum strength and reliability when the work gets tough.
The Ridge Runner carries comfortably thanks to its custom-molded Kydex sheath, which delivers excellent retention and fast deployment. Whether it's riding on a belt during long days outdoors or packed into your field gear, this knife is built to stay ready for action.
