To better serve the needs--and hands--of hunters from coast to coast, the Alpha series knives are available in three levels: the Selects, Pros, and Elites. Each level offers three different knives: the 662 Alpha Scout with a 2 7/8ths-inches long blade, the 663 Alpha Guide with a 4 3/8ths-inches long blade, and the 664 Alpha Hunter with a 3 3/4-inches long blade.
