Bushcraft Fixed Blade

Grohmann makes some nice bushcraft and hunting knives at a good price. Here's my #1 with a matching folder:

+1 for bark river. Or any one of the knives people have suggested here. All would be great choices. Sicily02s knives look great in the pics, and price looks great too.
 
I'll put in a "plug" for one of Sicily02's knives...you won't be sorry you got it! If you wipe it down, you won't have to worry about the rust issue. I know I may get arguments on this, but fellows, I've carried carbon steel blades in some mighty big and wet jungles out there, for extended periods of time, and never had a problem if I took basic care of my knives!

Thank you all for your suggestions.

I read an article on bushcraft knives in which the author considers Fallkniven and Bark River knives to be the best available.

Since I have an F1, I will consider a Bark River. I had a Huntsman several years ago, but sold it because the handle was a tad short. Now I like the Northstar and Gameskeeper.

But after seeing Stretch's Helle Symfoni, I am now looking at Scandinavian knives. The Symfoni looks great. I also like the Brusletto Norron, EKA H8, and Roselli Carpenter. And I can get these for under $100.00.

I agree sharp carbon is great!

This is what I would like in a bushcraft knife:

- 4" Satin blade and wood handles
- Easy to sharpen
- Rust resistant
- Full tang
- A decent guard
- Drop point preferably
- Less than $150.00

I noticed not many recommendations include this feature.

The inclusion of a guard limits your choices when choosing a "bushcraft" knife.
