The Perfect Deer Knife.

Frenchtown,

Hunting Guide

Multi-Generational
Guarantee

Most people say perfection is an illusion — an ideal or myth that can’t exist in reality. We say perfection is an 8 5/8″ drop point deer knife called The Whitetail.
After countless requests for a whitetail deer blade, we’ve finally done it. And we couldn’t be prouder. The 4-inch blade combines our classic drop point shape with more belly, allowing the Whitetail to skin, gut, bone out, and process meat with ease.

The Whitetail has quickly become one of our favorite blade designs to date. While it’s specifically designed for treestand and deer blind whitetail hunting, it can take on mule deer, elk, goats, bighorns, moose, and even bear… far above the woods.

MAGNACUT STAINLESS STEEL

Compact Yet Capable

At 8 5/8″ overall, the Whitetail is maneuverable when dressing deer in tight spaces yet substantial enough for larger game. 

The 4″ blade also gives you added control when gutting, reducing the chances of unwanted punctures. It’s all the blade you’ll ever need.

Updated Drop Point

With more belly than a classic drop point, the Whitetail skins like a dream. 

There’s enough tip to handle detailed tasks like caping while retaining enough point strength for rugged utility.

Secure Grip

The integrated guard provides added safety and control for skinning and detail work, ensuring fingers don’t ride up onto the blade. 

Textured jimping along the spine offers added traction for your thumb when applying pressure.

MagnaCut Stainless Steel

As a cryogenically heat-treated stainless steel, MagnaCut provides the perfect blend of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. 

Unlike other stainless steel blades, MagnaCut knives can be easily resharpened — even by novice knife owners. More wear-resistant than other stainless steels, and more corrosion-resistant than carbon steel, MagnaCut is in a class of its own.

Exclusive MKC Open Carry Sheath 2.0

Each Whitetail 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 Whitetail sheath comes with a Kydex clip 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.

    Best knife I have ever used

    First time using the MKC whitetail on it’s namesake and I have to say it has ruined every other hunting knife out there for me, half the effort resulting in deeper smoother cuts. Once you go MKC you will never go back!

    “Crafted with Precision, Backed by Integrity — A Cut Above”

    From the moment I held my first Montana Knife Company blade, I knew I was dealing with a cut above the rest. The balance, the finish, the feel in hand — it’s clear this isn’t a run-of-the-mill tool.

    The edge arrived razor sharp, ready to tackle the tasks I threw at it. The attention to detail in the design doesn’t go unnoticed — whether it’s the ergonomics, blade geometry, or the subtle touches on the handle.

    But what really seals the deal is how Montana Knife Company stands behind their work. Their customer service is attentive, and their commitment to the quality of their product shows in how they treat their customers. In an industry littered with overstated claims, they deliver.

    If you’re looking for a knife that feels like it was forged for the toughest conditions, backed by a company that cares — MKC is worth every bit of praise. Highly recommended.

    Whitetail, Awesome Blade

    Finally got my first MKC knife and it is a real beauty. It looks great and feels awesome in my palm, the weight is perfect and the blade is very sharp right out of the box, I will be carrying this knife into the field this fall. Also, it fits perfect in the horizontal sheath.
