Bark River Bumblebee...who's got one?

[gottahaveit27]

Bark River Bumblebee. Does anyone have one of these yet? They look like a really neat little blade. Thoughts? Thanks!

 

[samhain73]

Got one coming, hopefully Wed.:thumbup:

Looks like the Snody Activator if I am thinking of the right knife?

 

[gottahaveit27]

...not really. The blade is quite a bit shorter than the Snody and the shape is completely different. The bumble bee is quite a unique looking little blade.

 

[samhain73]

Blade is about the same length, about 2 1/4. Much taller though.

I got mine on Friday (black micarta handle) w/ brown clovis sheath. I replaced the sheath with the black & red Jersey Devil Sheath. My first impressions are good, although I have not been able to put it through its paces to much because it has been really busy at work & home.

Yeah you're right. Actually the bumble bee is slightly larger. The blade styles are much different though.

Please let me know what you think when you get to use her a little.

Looks like a Activator on steroids to me kind of.....

 

[walleyeguy7]

i like the activators design much better but a convex edge would be cool on a little neck knife

 

[These_Nutz]

I prefer the PSK.
Still looks a good small knife.
On a side note when the Hell are the Gunnys due out and were can i pre-order one.

 

[Varg Lobos]

The Gunny's should be out within a month or two I would think.

You can pre order one at www.knivesshipfree or DLT Trading Co, or Chestnut Ridge. Those are the one's that I buy from and trust.

What is a Gunny?

What is a Gunny?

A Gunny is a smaller version of the Bravo-1. Think 2/3 the size. You do know what a Bravo is, right

 

[gottahaveit27]

Yes. I'm not that bark river ignorant

 

[gottahaveit27]

Anybody know where I can see a pic of this new gunny creature. I must say that I am intrigued. Thanks

 

[Varg Lobos]

No pics yet, since it hasn't been made. But, there are some drawings out there, that show the comparison of the Gunny to the Bravo-1 and Bravo-2. I'll see if I can dig them up.

 

[Varg Lobos]

Here ya go:

Gunny
Bravo-1
Bravo-2

Nice, thanks Varg! That little blade looks sweet. :thumbup:
