The PACK-1 Grows Up
One Light Knife You’ll Actually Carry
The PACK-1 Elite earned a 4.95-star average from verified owners. It’s light in the hand, ready for any task and easy to carry all day. We made 200 of them, and they’re gone.
MSK-1 Ranger X is its next generation. We kept everything owners love and changed two things: 14C28N Swedish stainless steel and the NEW Tac Black RX sheath with a drop carry kit.
NEW 14C28N Steel
Swedish stainless steel, chosen to hold a keen edge, resist corrosion and touch up easily in the field.
NEW Tac Black RX Sheath
Comes with a drop carry kit, so it rides lower and more comfortably on your belt.
Survival Kit Inside
A micro survival kit tucks into the handle, behind slotted bolts with a bow drill divot.
Built to Do It All
Carve, Split, Spark
A center-aligned clip point for fine detail work. A pommel-end fire steel striker that throws sparks right at your tinder. An extended pommel for crushing and breaking.
An ergonomic finger guard, handle jimping, and lanyard and lashing holes for bushcraft builds.

Ranger X builds on the PACK-1 Elite. These are 5-star reviews from verified PACK-1 Elite buyers, shown with their review initials. You can read all of them below.
“I recently purchased UST’s PACK-1 knife, and for the first time there are zero disappointments. When in the hand this knife feels like a natural extension of your arm.”
Verified Buyer · PACK-1 Elite
“Wow! is my immediate and continued reaction to the Pack-1. It feels so good in one’s hand that the balance and design integrity are obvious.”
Verified Buyer · PACK-1 Elite
“An all around do all knife. This thing has the rigidity and strength to procure firewood or use to build a bushcraft shelter. And yet also has the finesse to handle more delicate projects such as cutting vegetables or making fire tender.”
