I was watching this with my parents and made them pause it during this scene, so I could try and ID the knife. I told them “there’s whole threads on Bladeforums about this.”

Haha I think they are used to it by now! They’re supportive of the hobby, and actually a little birdie told me that I’m going to have a GEC #48 improved trapper in stag under the tree from them! Also, they appreciate the free sharpening services

Southern Grind yup. Location of the shop is South of Atlanta, as is the filming location.

Ricks been carrying that knife for a while now. In an earlier episode, Rick found a Gerber survival kit with a machete, shovel, Gator folder and other stuff on a highway in Georgia. In a later episode you can see the Gator folder break and accidentally close on Ricks hand. Somehow he obtained the Southern Grind folder by the time the group made it to Virginia. As a side note....In an episode of Man vs. Wild, Baer Grylls also has a Gator break while using it in the wilderness.
