In almost every respect, the Recon Scout is simply a 7.5-inch Trail Master Bowie. It offers the same heat treatment, blade thickness, blade shape, and handle - but now with CPM-3V tool steel.

Unlike other combat knives, the Recon Scout's broad clip point is highly resistant to bending or breaking. It's ideal for long-range cutting and slashing. Additionally, the blade is equipped with a slightly concave false edge that measures approximately 3.5" long.

Like the Trail Master, the Recon Scout has a slight curve along the entire length of the blade. This curve allows the blade to be used in a draw cut as well as a chopping stroke. Plus, the extra curve near the tip provides plenty of "belly" for emergency field dressing and skinning.

The Recon Scout comes complete with a tough Secure-Ex sheath.
