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.

Free Sharpening For Life & Beyond

Generations® is our promise to restore your knife to its original, unmatched working condition.

MKC will clean, sharpen, repair, and even reshape your blades when necessary, as well as rewrapping handles free of charge. While we perform all necessary sharpening and maintenance, our aim is not to return your knife to its brand new appearance. Learn more about MKC Generations Promise.

    Hog skinning

    Wild hogs dull knives faster than anything I've cleaned, but after multiple ones my stubhorn is a sharp as ever. It's definitely my favorite knife.

    Thank you for five stars Roland! We're absolutely thrilled to hear the Stubhorn - MeatEater Edition is holding its edge like a champ through multiple wild hogs - that's some serious blade testing right there! You're absolutely right that hogs are notorious for dulling knives faster than just about anything, so knowing this knife is staying razor sharp through that kind of work is incredible feedback. It's fantastic to hear it's earned the top spot as your favorite knife - that's the ultimate compliment! That MagnaCut steel really proves itself when put to the test on tough game like this. Thanks for taking the time to share this awesome real-world hunting feedback!

    Great all around knife

    I received this knife in a sweepstakes that I won. I just got back from a moose hunt skinned and quartered the whole thing and still had an edge on it. Amazing I will be telling everyone to buy one from here on.

    Thank you for five stars Nick! We're absolutely thrilled to hear the Stubhorn performed so incredibly on your moose hunt - that's some serious real-world testing right there! It's fantastic to know it handled the entire skinning and quartering job while still holding its edge beautifully. That's exactly the kind of field performance this blade was designed to deliver, and hearing it from someone who just put it through the ultimate hunting challenge means everything to us. We're so excited you won it in the sweepstakes and that it's already proven itself as such a reliable hunting companion! Thanks for spreading the word about MKC - customers like you who truly put these knives to work where it matters most are what we're all about. Thanks for taking the time to share this awesome hunting feedback!

    Awesome knife

    Bought this knife back in June. I've been on a couple of pack trips were I had it clipped on my chinks and was surprised how well it rode. Last night my wife shot a bear! This was the only knife I needed.
