Hi Everyone,

I've recently become very fascinated with the bush craft style of knives. Also, some of the larger'ish ones like the Ka-Bar Becker BK2. What I'm interested in is learning about more brands and styles to check out. I saw some videos of Bark River knives on youtube. I'd like to know about more brands & styles like that (looking more towards the wood handled knives with blades about 4-5 inches in length).

So what do you guys like? What can I check out? :)
 
Hi well i like skandi knifes check out helle and karesvando and woodjewel they do nice knifes at a good price
 
as an example of what I like in a woods bumming knife, here are some of mine that see time afield. For the most part, I like a 3.5 or 4 inch blade, but a good 6 inch has a place as well. I probably have more custom knifes than production ones, and am split about half and half between carbon steel and stainless.

Nice collection. How about identifying the knives for the OP?
 
Daniel Fairly makes an awesome bushcraft knife. I have one w/ black micarta handles and titanium pins. Custom kydex sheath too. Check out his forum.
 
Check out:
blind horse knives
fiddleback forge
koster
jk knives
falkniven (a little more searching to find wood handles)
boker
esee (not wood handled but worth a gander)
 
Check out condor. Those are working class bushcraft. I recently got the kephart. A bushcraft with some history.
 
thanks for all the recommendations everyone! i've seen some of those names before and am checking out the ones I hadn't heard of. ...so many knives, so little money ;)
