[NeoQuello]

love that ur doing the review out in the woods... how much did you spend on it..

[NechakoRiver]

@NeoQuello

I think it was around $100 or maybe a bit less.

If you are looking for a sheath, KnivesShipFree sells a pocket sheath that fits really well.

[NechakoRiver]

@perfectshot77

Wow, good find!

[whatstheverdict]

how does this carve?

[NechakoRiver]

@whatstheverdict

I don't do much carving but it does seem to work well. The blade is pretty thin and the point is perfect for small stuff.

5 stars great vid, that knife looks real nice

[NechakoRiver]

Thanks :)

Can you get a leather sheath with these? Also, how is the grip on the bark river knives... I love wood and I also like those buffalo horn handles but am wondering if they are too slippy. These knives I know are really sharp and some don't have finger guards so I am wondering if you or anybody else has had difficulty choking up on these handles and slipping or when using the larger ones for chopping?

[NechakoRiver]

Yep, there are leather sheaths available. I haven't had any problems with my hands slipping. In my experience, all Bark River handles feel really good and have a great shape for gripping them.

If you haven't seen it before, the Bark River forum on KnifeForums has lots of info about the knives.

i just bought one of these! cant wait till i get it. i think it is the hollow ground one though.

[NechakoRiver]

Cool, even if it is hollow ground it will still have a convex edge.

[tallswede68]

That's nice. I may get one.

[NechakoRiver]

If you can find one, get it. They are great little knives.

[tallswede68]

That knife looks like the bird and trout knife.

By the way, I just got the Aurora. I think I'm going to get one of those custom Bowies.

[NechakoRiver]

It does look kind of similar.

The Aurora is a great knife, good choice!

[knivesandstuff]

that new camera rocks!.. the fixed focus is very good blurring out the background.. i wonder if mine will do that..

nice knife too.

[NechakoRiver]

That is the f3.5 aperture of the lens that gives the nice blurred background. The camera is a DSLR that can take video.

I can use all sorts of lenses and get really cool video. Lots of fun!

[chrissept21]

nice camera man

[NechakoRiver]

Thanks, I should have a short video about it coming soon.

[chrissept21]

well that gunna be a little hard how are you gunna flim your camera lol im jk

really clear are you going to do a close up on the fox river

[NechakoRiver]

lol :)

I used my Panasonic LX3 for the video about the Pentax.

I'll see about doing another one with the Fox River. Maybe with my macro lens, that would give a really good look at it.

[chrissept21]

i wanna look at the patina on it if its still there

[NechakoRiver]

It still has it. The colours aren't as bright but it might show up in a video.

I'll give it a try

[chrissept21]

thanks alot

[IHatchetJack]

I'm totally jealous of that knife..if you EVER want to rid yourself of it let me know..I got money, and other Barkies to trade!!

[NechakoRiver]

This one is a keeper. :)

Maybe try finding one used and send it in to Bark River to get it cleaned up or get a new handle put on it.
