SRM Scout Crossbar Lock Folding Knife Bead Blast/Black G-10 SRM-7229-GB

The SRM Scout Crossbar Lock Folding Knife is built for dependable everyday carry with a clean, modern design focused on control, safety, and real-world performance. Compact, lightweight, and purpose-driven, it’s designed for users who want a capable cutting tool that carries easily while still delivering serious utility when it matters.

The knife features a 2.72-inch drop point blade crafted from 14C28N stainless steel with a bead blast finish. This steel is known for its strong balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness, making it a reliable choice for daily tasks and outdoor use alike. The drop point profile offers excellent versatility, providing a strong tip for controlled work and a smooth edge for slicing through a wide range of materials.

Deployment is quick and intuitive thanks to an “invisible” flipper design that keeps the knife’s profile streamlined while still allowing fast one-handed opening. Once open, the blade is secured by a robust crossbar lock that delivers strong, ambidextrous lockup and smooth operation. The crossbar system is designed for reliability under stress while remaining easy to disengage when it’s time to close the knife.

The handle is constructed from black G-10, offering excellent durability, weather resistance, and a secure grip in a wide range of conditions. Its textured surface enhances control during use while keeping the knife lightweight and comfortable for all-day carry. A dual-system stainless steel pocket clip adds flexibility, allowing users to configure carry for either hand and different preference setups without sacrificing security.

Measuring 3.93 inches closed and weighing just 2.5 ounces, the Scout is built for discreet pocket carry without giving up capability. Its compact footprint makes it easy to carry daily, whether in urban environments, on the trail, or in everyday work situations.

Located in the Great Smoky Mountains, its legendary showroom welcomes more than 1.5 million visitors each year who come to experience one of the most iconic knife destinations anywhere.
