The Mini Ridgeback brings a modified harpoon blade style to Brandon Williams' handmade lineup. The harpoon profile features a pronounced false edge along the spine that sweeps toward a reinforced tip, giving the blade visual depth and additional geometry for penetrating cuts. At 3.25" blade and approximately 6.75" overall, the Mini Ridgeback sits at the compact end of the 4B Outdoors lineup and carries with almost no footprint. 1095 high carbon steel, convex grind, full tang. Each knife ships with a signed PR photo from Brandon.

Note from Lone Star Knife & Supply: The harpoon profile on the Mini Ridgeback is a genuinely different look from the rest of the 4B lineup. The false edge along the spine adds geometry that makes the blade look and perform differently than a standard drop point. Compact, handmade, and signed. A strong carry knife from a maker who knows what he's doing.

Handle Options

• G10, moisture-resistant and impact-tough synthetic handle. Ships with a Blue Kydex sheath, scout carry.
• Wood, natural handle material that varies by piece. Ships with a Tan Kydex sheath, scout carry.

Why You'll Want It

The Mini Ridgeback is the compact option in this batch with a blade profile that stands apart from a standard drop point. Modified harpoon geometry, convex ground 1095, and a scout carry Kydex sheath from a Forged in Fire Champion. Carry it and use it.

A Note on 1095 High Carbon Steel

1095 is a carbon steel, not stainless. After use, wipe the blade clean and dry. For storage, apply a thin coat of blade wax or camellia oil to the flat of the blade. Renaissance Wax and purpose-made blade wax products both work well. Thirty seconds of maintenance keeps 1095 performing well for years. In humid conditions without care, surface rust will develop. The steel is worth the habit.
