The OG Legend, Reborn for the Backcountry

When Josh Smith created the Blackfoot, it became MKC’s flagship knife: the ultimate do-it-all blade that hunters and outdoorsmen trusted for everything from field dressing moose to precise caping work. Now, we’ve taken that legendary versatility and infused it with the DNA of our Ultra family.

Meet the Blackfoot Ultra: all the proven performance of the original, reimagined for backcountry hunters and ultralight enthusiasts who count every ounce.

The Blackfoot Ultra represents a complete evolution. We’ve shaved a full third of the weight without sacrificing any blade performance or structural integrity. At just 2.64 ounces, this knife brings the iconic Blackfoot drop point blade to high-elevation hunts, long-range pack-ins, and gram-counting adventures where every ounce matters. Named for Lincoln, Montana’s Blackfoot River Valley, this knife honors its heritage while pushing the boundaries of what an ultralight hunting knife can be.
