Bark River lovers

HI & welcome to my group Bark River Lovers. I'm Freddy Ramos. I love all knives, But I have to say that my knife of choice has to be the Bark River Bravo-1. I love the shape, the convex grand, the weight, the thickness of the blade. Man, I love it all. The Fallkniven F1 comes close, but no cigar. Tell me what you think of Bark River Knives. The good, the bad, the ugly. I wanna know. And if you have any pictures show them off.

Good to know, cant wait to see it and hear your thoughts on it

Hello fellow "Barkies". I just ordered myself a Mini-Skinner. It's a little bigger than the PSK at 6.4". I cant wait to get it.

I just searched on the internet for the Trickle. Thats an even smaller knife than the PSK. I have never seen one either.

Andy,

I have not seen the tiny trickle but if I come across one I will let you know

Freddie, Thanks for the invite. Knives look really well made.

Thanks for the invite, Freddy. Maybe you saw my YouTube video posted three years ago on the Canadian Special model:

I have several Barkies and will try to post some pictures in a few weeks. In the meantime, let me ask the members if anyone has one of the tiny Trickle (used or new) models from five years ago. I'd like to swap for one. I have some very fine Barkies fo much higher monetary value (unused).

Terrific video! I can't believe the hand work they do!

Comment by Jan Carter on November 18, 2012 at 18:31

Freddy,

Thanks for the review. 5 inches works for me, I have small hands. I found this video on Utube. I did not realize that Bark River does a s much by hand as they do. Seems like a nice little factory

Ok Jan. As per your request here is my review on the PSK. First off the knife is small. A little over 5" in total. With that said it's a great little knife to have. It fits very well in your pocket (mine came with a leather pocket sheath), and feels minimal in your hand. The convex edge, like all Bark Rivers, comes razer sharp. And the design is perfect for everyday use.

Don't get me wrong. Your not going to do big jobs with this knife. It's for everyday small tasks. But you can get yourself out of a jam with this little knife if need beOver all I like this knife for what it is. But I can tell you that this knife may not be for everyone.

Freddy, If you could, give us a bit of a review on when you get it. I would love to hear more about the PSK

The Woodland special is a nice looking little knife. I ordered a PSK from someone on ebay. That's an even smaller knife. I cant wait to get it.

Comment by Jan Carter on November 13, 2012 at 20:47

Hi Freddy,

Gotta love a Barkie. I really like the woodland special model
