SPECIAL COLLABORATION

DESIGNED BY HUNTERS FOR HUNTERS

Meet the MKC x Rinella Stubhorn, born from our exciting collaboration with Steven Rinella, the renowned conservationist, hunting advocate, and host of the hit Netflix show MeatEater. This blade is a true all-rounder, ready to tackle every task in a hunter's journey — from the moment you bag your game to the final preparation of a hard-earned meal by the campfire.

The Stubhorn’s unique design truly stands out among the full MKC lineup, but capture’s Steven's clear vision: create a blade that's not only versatile enough to handle the entire hunting and harvesting process but also inviting and approachable for newcomers to the hunting world.

The Stubhorn embodies Steve's welcoming spirit. Both highly capable and highly accessible, this knife will feel right at home in the hands of a seasoned pro or a complete beginner.

Big On Comfort

At just under 9 inches from tip to tail, the Stubhorn might seem imposing at first glance, but trust us, it's a gentle giant.

We've put a full grind on the front to keep the weight down, so it's not as heavy as it looks. Tipping the scales at about 5.25 ounces, this blade sports a fine trailing point and a large belly, making it the perfect companion for any task.

Our Most Capable Handle

The Stubhorn's handle is where the magic really happens. Made from bulletproof G-10, it's thick, ultra-comfortable, and feels like shaking hands with an old friend from the moment you grip it.

The oversized safety guard at the front gives you peace of mind, while the near-cylindrical shape allows for multiple comfortable grips, no matter the size of your hand or the task at hand. Even after a long, chilly day in the field, this handle will feel like a warm handshake.

A Point That Means Business

With a surgical tip and a slight trailing point made from Magnacut Stainless Steel, the Stubhorn is reminiscent of a skinning knife, but is a true all-around hunting blade.

Steve places a premium on clean opening cuts, so incorporating a surgical cutting tip was a no-brainer. Beyond that, the Stubhorn maintains a clean, classic shape with no hard edges.

Little Details That Make A Big Difference

We've scalloped out the front of the blade so you can get a pinch grip when you need that extra control.

And because we know you'll want to keep this beauty close, we've added a lanyard hole at the back for paracord or leather, making it easy to hang on your person or around camp.

EXCLUSIVE MKC OPEN CARRY SHEATH 2.0

Each Stubhorn comes with a USA Made, custom MKC Kydex sheath.

The sheath features a built-in retention screw to customize blade tension and allow for handle-down carrying. The Stubhorn sheath comes with a Kydex clip that allows you to carry your knife on a pack or belt loop, either horizontally or vertically.

My new favorite go to knife

This is my new favorite knife for carrying in the field and doing it all!! It is so comfortable and nice to handle. The handle is a great size for an anywhere carry knife. The sharpness retention is awesome I fully processed two axis deer and it is still sharp enough to do another one. The shape of the blade is also really nice for skinning and processing!! Highly recommend this knife for an all around carry for hunting and daily use!!
