  • Where are you located?

  • @bishop85gt

    Hi, Our training site is located in South Central Washington near Goldendale.

  • What knife is that?

  • The knife in the video in a BCNW-O1 which we make ourselves and is available through our website. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

    Thx, ML

  • one more thing - what do you think to be the best VALUE for a knife like that? I cant afford much, and so many knives are hundreds and hundreds of dollars....

  • The Mora knives I sell are a great choice for very little money. Another good choice is a Helle knife. I sell the Eggen model...the Symfoni is a nice knife also. There are many great Scandinavian knives to chose from that won't break the bank. They're usually stick tangs which is a weaker design than full tang at full handle width. Still, a well made one is very strong and you'll have the Scandi grind which is ideal for bushcraft. Try my friend at Ragweed Forge also. Good luck in your search. ML

  • This is true. Ray Mears' knife doesn't have a finger guard and neither does Bear Grylls' knife. Mine is a Mora #1 with the stainless blade and no finger guard either. I've never been cut with it because I don't act stupid with it.

  • I have been using a knife for over 25yrs.,You taught me a few things today.
