<h2><strong><em>4 MAX Scout</em></strong></h2>
<p>The <strong>4 Max Scout</strong> features an extra wide, drop-point blade and stonewash finish, which is identical to the original 4 Max. It’s crafted from 5mm thick AUS10A steel for strength, toughness and edge holding potential. The handle’s silhouette mirrors the original.

Equipped with Andrew Demko’s groundbreaking Tri-Ad® locking mechanism, the 4 Max Scout has passed every one of our grueling shock and impact tests and then gone on to hold 600 pounds of free-hanging weight with no damage!</p>
