New Bark River Necker Knife

[T.K.C.]

I saw a thread on this knife else where, and these knives have a variety of handle material available.

I think 12C27 is a very good choice for this knife. BRKT's 12C27 is said to behave a lot like their A2, with the added benefit of it being corrosion resistant. Most of the 'high performance stainlesses' would chip where 12C27 should not. For a 'hard use' stainless, 12C27 is hard to beat (not counting H-1)!

Bark River's 12C27 is excellent. It does perform similar to their A2 and can take a wicked fine edge. I use this steel in my Bark River Chef's knife.

Fair enough.

Sounds good.

You have to take into account the unreal warrantee you are receiving by buying a Bark River knife. Mike and his crew are top notch.

Those handles look nice too

Very smart.

I am not a fan of the thumb 'grooves', but that is just a personal thing.

I think they will do well with this knife.

If you want one of the weirder options, get it now, I bet that they will cut back to fewer options once the market speaks.

Your probably right, those handle options are a really good idea

I think I heard that Mike is looking into expanding the handle options into wood slabs.

G10 would be nice too
