I'm considering one of their Wharncliff designs, the Bush Seax Bantam

Great knives, but make sure that you’re comfortable with a convex edge profile before buying.

Thanks. Are they challenging to sharpen?

My sample size is just one, but it was very underwhelming with poor fit and finish for the price point. I will not own another.

There are many better choices these days.

Google for reviews. ??

I don't use Google, and I did look for reviews. They were generally positive, but there was very little on their utility and durability.

You can either sharpen manually with the mouse/sand paper method or else very carefully use a power sharpener like the work sharp that leaves a convex profile. You might want to check out YouTube for more information.

I appreciate the help!

Thanks

I'd be willing to make one similar if your interested ?It would be of my design but similar with high quality parts

Just another mass-produced production knife as far as I'm concerned.

They are good knives made by a long time knife maker. Not sure why all the negative in here about them. You can custom order a specific model to your liking in regards to handle materials. Convex edge is least complex in my opinion, to keep sharp if you are not good at micro bevels. They use all kinds of great steel and the price point is fair for a lifetime warranty. They hold their value for what I see if you take care of them and warranty isn’t void of you resale it. I have a few. As a knife maker I collect other makers knives as well. Plenty of info about them out there and the owner will talk directly to you as a knife lover no different than the good guys in here.
Here are the Bark River I own.


I make them too but not as many, more of a hobby. You want a real one of a kind custom, get someone on here.

I've got a few customs from Scott Cook, but the damned things are too nice to beat up:

USE them!!! its okay, you will get more enjoyment out of them!

There you go, making sense and all!

Great knives but overpriced. Wait for model closeout pricing. I picked up a clip pount skinner a few years ago for 79.99.
