Description

The 2.5" Bird and Trout 2.0 – MagnaCut builds on the proven design of our original Bird and Trout, now forged in CPM MagnaCut, the breakthrough steel prized for its balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Lightweight yet mighty, this compact blade excels when space is limited, and surgical accuracy is a must.

Field-tested precision, reimagined
The distinctive leaf-shaped blade offers an unrivaled point for clean punctures and controlled cuts—ideal for skinning smaller game (rabbits, muskrats, beaver) or caping trophy heads with confidence. At just 2.64", the blade length is perfect for detailed work, while the lanyard hole allows larger hands to extend grip with a paracord braid.

Ergonomics you can trust
Choose between two distinct handle styles: the timeless beauty of Ironwood or the rugged security of our new Sunburst SureGrip. Both are paired with a custom-fitted Kydex sheath, ensuring your Bird and Trout 2.0 stays protected and accessible wherever the hunt takes you.

Made for hunters, anglers, and trappers
From breasting a grouse to gutting trout, this knife has been field-tested by Jackson Hole’s finest outdoorsmen to guarantee comfort, control, and all-weather durability. With MagnaCut steel and upgraded carry options, the Bird and Trout 2.0 is the compact knife that punches far above its weight.

Use & Care
  • Hand wash with warm soapy water and hand dry for maximum edge retention and stain resistance. For safety and edge protection, store dry knives in their leather sheath, in a wood block, or on a magnet designed to hold knives. For a full tune-up: free lifetime sharpening.
  • Do not put in the dishwasher - this will dull the knife.
  • For edge retention, cut only on wood or softer plastic cutting boards.
  • As needed, apply a light coat of mineral oil to the handle with a soft cloth to enhance vibrance.
