Browning and Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation Knife Sheaths Recalled


May 13, 2009
Browning and the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation are recalling about 10,000 skinner knife sheaths.

The knife can cut through the sheath because there is no blade guard in the sheath. This poses a laceration hazard to consumers.

The recall involves the Browning and Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation co-branded skinner knife sheath (model 322087). The sheath is black with the "Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation" logo stitched on the front. The packaging is black and yellow with "Browning" printed on the side and the model number printed above the UPC. No other Browning or Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation products are included in this recall.

The sheath and knife, made in China, were given away as a promotional item for new membership in the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation from November 2008 through April 2009.

Consumers should stop using the sheath immediately and discard it. Consumers with the recalled sheath will be notified directly and will be sent a new one free of charge.

For additional information, contact Browning at (800) 637-0230 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. MT Monday through Friday or visit the firm"s Web site at www.browning.com (PDF).

The recall is being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
