What This Knife Is Built For
Two knives. Minimal weight. Everything you need.
The Ovis Skeleton and Mountain Caper paired together in Duck Camo or Orange. One for the bigger work, one for the finer details. A simple, lightweight setup for hunters who'd rather carry less without giving up capability.

Materials & Construction
The Ovis Skeleton is your all purpose hunting knife. Skeletonized and full tang, its 4.25" CPM MagnaCut blade is built to handle the bigger work, from breaking down game to detailed cutting around joints and hide, at just 34 grams (knife only).
The Mountain Caper handles the finer details. Its 2 ¾" CPM MagnaCut blade is compact, lightweight at 19.5 grams (knife only), and extremely controllable, built for caping and the detailed cuts around the face and eyes where a larger knife can become cumbersome.

What Kestrel customers are saying
-
Being a professional guide and a son of a ranch butcher, I've skinned a lot of animals and a knife that can hold a sharp edge is a must. I've used many brands of knives and Kestrel Knives are the only one I've found that can hold a sharp edge the longest. I bought my first EDC about 3 years ago and skinned 2 elk and a 1,200 lbs buffalo with it so far and still haven't had to use my wet stone to resharpen it.

What a great knife. These are the lightest weight knives I’ve ever seen and truly a necessity for the backcountry hunter.

The trip was amazing, man. I live in northern BC, Fort Nelson, a couple hours’ drive and 5 of our horses. 20 km trip into base camp, and day rides from there. 9 days on horses, 180+ km between boots and horseback. On the 7th day I shot my ram.The knife was amazing. My dad had his Havalon and I had my Kestrel. His Havalon handle snapped on him, and we finished the caping with my Kestrel
