The Fallkniven R2 Scout is Fallkniven's most advanced fixed blade knife for active outdoor use. It is an all-round knife of the highest quality, a knife you can really trust for any job and in any environment. It is strong without being heavy and bulky and you get a good, secure grip thanks to the classic ergonomic handle.

The knife sheath has a two way locking system, partly a spring assisted key lock that generally holds the knife in the sheath, and partly a shackle lock that you fold down to 100% securely lock the knife in place.

The steel which Fallkniven use is a world-class Swedish powder steel (Elmax) that is carefully hardened, cooled to minus 190°C and then tempered for two hours to a hardness of HRC 61/62. It gives a tough, and at the same time hard steel that stays sharp for a long time without being brittle.

It is smaller than the famous Fallkniven F1 without sacrificing any of the quality or usability. The convex ground edge is hair splitting sharp and keeps its sharpness extremely well. 

The blade tang - the part of the blade that goes inside the handle - is also wide and strong and is visible at the handle end. The tip of the blade is reinforced in order to prevent it from breaking.

    I have used the knife daily for a week now. I have found no issues with it, it is a joy to work with.

    Small but powerful wee knife

    Posted by kenny cameron on 24th Jun 2022

    When I fist opened its box I was a bit underwhelmed due to the size however when I used it for the first time on a camp it proved the Match of bigger knives. So sharp and strong it batons very well. Probably too think for fine work but makes good feather sticks. I have size 11 hands and I can get a good comfy secure grip on the handle. The sheath is very good. Locks up very well and it can be secured in any direction. Haven’t had to sharpen yet as it was razor out the box . As usual heine service was top notch.

    Fällkniven R2 Scout.

    Posted by Steven on 23rd Jun 2022

    I purchased this knife to replace my mora eldris as a very capable necker knife. So far I am beyond impressed! The R2 Scout is small in size, but massive on potential! With its 4.8mm spine this knife is certainly a mini beast and the elmax steel ensures a razor edge is held for long periods, but is also easy to sharpen. I have a full review on this knife and more purchased from heinnie on my Bushcrafty Ste youtube channel.

    This is just an initial review, I havn't had chance to get some real use out of it yet as recent bought of storms have made hunting trips a no go. That aside it is a beautifully crafted small all round bushcrafty style knife, which came really sharp

    Fallkniven R2 Scout

    Excellent knife from Fallkniven! Easy to sharpen, just give it a few passes on each side with a strop with some decent compound, I recommend Smurf Poo from BolPol. It’s Very sharp even out of the box! I highly recommend buying the R2 Scout you won’t be disappointed not one bit! Excellent service and fast next day delivery from Heinnie Haynes as always!

    A user and a keeper

    Posted by Andrew W on 16th Aug 2021

    As soon as I unboxed and inspected it I could see it was a quality piece of cutlery. Reassuringly priced as something decent but not too expensive to be too precious about. This is the first time I have had something sharp enough to shave hairs off my arm but solidly built. Also used whilst camping this weekend. So….I threw the box away as I’m using this and never going to sell it.

    Little knife with a big heart. What an edge you can get on this little beaut, laser sharp. I think this knife will be passed on through generations. 110% recommended.

    Great - highly recommended

    Posted by Joules on 22nd Jul 2021

    I bought this on a whim as I was slightly underwhelmed by previous fallkniven knives I'd bought. The first so blunt you couldn't cut yourself, the second - same knife - razor sharp. I bought the second as the first one, with some work, was amazing. This R2 was razor sharp, scary sharp. Ergonomics for me perfect, absolutely adore it. I'd get a spare but can't see me wearing it out or losing it. Highly recommended.
