Custom knife makers similar to Bark River

Does it have to be custom?

In my opinion, another manufacturer who looks similar style wise is L.T. Wright.
Except LT is better in Every way.
I have quite a few from them.
I like their classic looks

No, doesn’t have to be custom. I like LT Wright as well. Xyrium has a Gersh knife that looks awesome for sale in magnacut. I just want a different steel and didn’t realize what else was out there. I’ve got two Doziers and three Bradfords and one BR. You guys know better than me but I definitely have a type lol.
 
I was looking at a couple of Bark Rivers trying to decide on what size I wanted when I ran across the Redmeadow Cowbell. Now I’m just waiting on availability to try to get on John’s list. He has a sub forum here that would answer your questions much better than me - a guy who has never held/used one firsthand yet. But in response to your question, I think the Cowbell and Bravo designs are similar as a smaller EDC fixed blade - but the Cowbell looks more comfortable in the hand.

I took a look at the Bark River Bravo EDC, nice little knife. Here are some differences between it and the Cowbell from what I can gather online.
(Bravo/Cowbell)
Overall Length (7.1/6.5)
Steel thickness (.15/.100)
Weight (3.4oz/2.0)
Steel (Various/52100)
(Cowbells are under 200 dollars, looks like the Bravo has a wide range)

Noted! I'd love to do another run of Serranos. I'll get back around to them at some point, I still carry my personal one daily, can't beat stacked leather.

Yes, sir! That’s exactly why I asked to be added to your email list. :) I’m looking forward to the chance to add one to my daily carry/routine.
