McNees Ridge Runner Fixed Blade Knife Stonewash Magnacut/OD Green G-10

This version keeps the same award-winning Ridge Runner platform, but shifts it into a classic field-ready aesthetic with Olive Drab Green G-10 scales and a stonewashed finish that’s built to blend into the outdoors while working hard without compromise.

Blade Show Atlanta’s 2024 American-Made Fixed Blade of the Year® winner, the McNees Ridge Runner Fixed Blade Knife is built for hunters and outdoorsmen who want a dependable, no-nonsense tool that performs when conditions get rough. Designed by Jonathan McNees, a former Marine and lifelong hunter who began crafting knives in 2008, the Ridge Runner reflects real-world experience shaped by time in the field and a focus on practical, efficient performance.

This version features a 4-inch CPM MagnaCut stainless steel blade with a rugged stonewashed finish. MagnaCut is widely respected for its exceptional balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, making it one of the most advanced blade steels available today. The stonewash finish adds durability in appearance, helping the blade maintain a hard-use look even after extended time in the field.

A high, thin flat grind allows the blade to slice cleanly and efficiently through game processing tasks, rope, and general outdoor cutting duties. It’s built for controlled, precise work without sacrificing strength or reliability when the job gets tougher.

The handle is constructed from Olive Drab Green G-10, shaped with contoured ergonomics to reduce hot spots and maintain a secure grip across all conditions. G-10 provides excellent durability and traction, while the removable scale design allows for quick customization or replacement if desired.

Measuring 8.195 inches overall with a 3.7-inch blade, the Ridge Runner offers a compact profile that carries easily while still delivering full-capability performance. Each knife includes a precision-fit Kydex sheath with a Tek-Lok system for versatile, secure carry options.

Proudly made in the USA, the Ridge Runner reflects McNees Knives’ commitment to functional design, premium materials, and field-proven reliability. It’s a purpose-built fixed blade designed to perform without hesitation in real-world conditions.
