Am I wrong that this company is expanding it's line. I am really liking these guys.

There are more models slotted to come out next year. However, they already offer a huge variety of knives, with a bigger variety of handle choices. Great company.....

Bark River has to be one of the most active knife companies in coming out with truly new knives. They are my favorite knives--hands down.

Don't regret it now. You have a sebbie and that nice Atwood blade :thumbup:.

Barkies have become my fav. fixed blade. They know how to gind a blade. I sent Mike a Queen copperhead with D2 to convex, man that knife cuts like crazy.

My upland special does a lot of kitchen work, and does it well.
