Long admired as the go-to brand for durable, high-quality multitools in the outdoors, Leatherman has a new slate of knives that builds up their reputation by stripping things down. Its new premium fixed-blade and foldable knives are addition by subtraction—dedicated offerings for those who need the singular performance of a purpose-built outdoor knife.
The five knives in the collection include three fixed-blade knives—Rustle, Pioneer, and Trac—and two folding knives, the Glider and Blazer. All knives are fully customizable and made in the USA with MagnaCut® stainless steel to deliver durability, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. Each knife was created with a different type of outdoor enthusiast in mind.
Rustle: For the Camp Chef
If you’re more likely to count onions than ounces, the Rustle is the knife for you. Designed for early morning omelets and post-hike stir-fries, the Rustle’s thoughtful features make it perfect for outdoor cooking. The blade’s full bevel design with a slight curve toward the tip offers optimal slicing, especially when making thin cuts of meats and veggies. The santoku-inspired blade shape is also ideal for chopping, giving you everything you need to turn fireside chowdowns into five-star meals.

From foraging to fishing to farming, the versatile and well-balanced Trac knife is a worthy outdoor partner from sunup to sundown. Its rugged, hollow-ground blade was designed for tough tasks that still require precision, like field-dressing game. Because when you’re outside all day, the work should be as easy and accurate as possible.
