Bark River Bravo-1

The Bravo-1 knife was developed with the assistance of the U.S. Marine Corp Force Recon Training Unit. These folks bought a large number of knives on the commercial market and tested them without saying anything to any of the makers.

The Bark River Gameskeeper came out on top. It fit their requirements of a "Real Time General Purpose Survival/Bushcraft Knife". Bark River was contacted by them and asked to make a knife based on the Gameskeeper with a few changes. The Bravo-1 is the result of their input.

All 2011 Bravo-1’s come with the new Standard Leather Sheath.

Stainless Gunny

When the Bark River Gunny was first introduces it was a runaway seller. It was so popular as an EDC that people soon began asking for a stainless version of the knife.

Bark River's heat treat maximizes the toughness of this fine Sandvik Steel and compliments it's edge holding.

Blue Blade with Blue Glow handles
The standard Bravo Necker comes in seven colors and includes a Black Kydex Sheath. The knives are Powder Coated before grinding and the coating is ground off the blade portion, so it will not interfere with cutting at all.

All knife colors sell for the same price of $67.49 each. The optional handle sets are priced from $43.95 to $54.95.

Bark River Warranty: The powder coating is not covered under the warranty once the knife is used. The powder coating will wear and they can chip in use.
