At Hogue Knives, our engineers are dedicated to developing innovative solutions that address the specific challenges faced by our customers. When Lucas Paugh, an avid hunter, approached Hogue Knives President and Master Tool Maker, Jim Bruhns, with a critical issue encountered by hunters in the backcountry, it sparked a transformative project. Many hunters have adopted the use of disposable scalpel blades to streamline efficiency and reduce pack weight during field dressing. However, these medical-grade tools are not designed to withstand the rigors of outdoor use. Issues such as blade breakage, frame bending and the risk of accidental cuts have been all too common. To solve this persistent problem, Hogue Knives conceived the Expel, a revolutionary scalpel design engineered to enhance safety and functionality. The Expel is constructed with a robust 440C stainless steel frame and features removable G10 scales with Peel Ply texture, weighing a mere 1.4 oz. It is compatible with widely available scalpel blades, offering versatility tailored to the immediate needs of the user. The standout feature of the Expel is its dual-function switch mechanism. This mechanism serves as both a secure lock and an effortless blade ejector, ensuring the blade remains firmly in place during use and allowing for safe removal without direct contact with the sharp edge. Rigorously tested and endorsed by professional hunters, outfitters and taxidermists, the Expel has proven its reliability in demanding field conditions. Every Hogue knife, including the Expel, is proudly manufactured in the USA, drawing on three generations of manufacturing expertise. This commitment ensures that each knife meets the highest standards of quality and performance, reflecting our dedication to innovation and customer satisfaction in every detail.
