SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Bark River Bush Seax Fixed Blade Knife in black is a robust, full-sized tool built for serious outdoor work, tactical tasks, and precision cutting. Proudly made in the USA, it combines traditional craftsmanship with modern performance, delivering strength, control, and reliability in a knife designed to perform in demanding environments. With its distinctive Wharncliffe blade and rugged handle, the Bush Seax is ideal for outdoorsmen, hunters, bushcrafters, and anyone who needs a dependable, versatile fixed blade.
At its core, the knife features a 4.75-inch Wharncliffe blade crafted from A2 tool steel. Renowned for its toughness, edge retention, and durability, A2 is a proven workhorse steel that handles heavy use without chipping or rolling. The satin finish highlights the clean lines of the Wharncliffe profile while reducing glare and giving it a professional, understated look. The straight edge excels at detailed work, precise slicing, and push cuts, while the reinforced tip provides confidence when piercing or performing controlled tasks.
Built with full tang construction, the Bush Seax offers unmatched strength from tip to pommel. Its solid construction ensures that every cut is supported, giving you confidence during demanding tasks. Measuring 10.125 inches overall and weighing 10 ounces, this knife provides a balanced feel, substantial enough for heavier work while remaining manageable in the hand for detailed operations.
The handle is crafted from black canvas micarta, a material prized for its durability, weather resistance, and secure grip in wet or slippery conditions. Ergonomically shaped, the handle fits comfortably in hand, allowing for extended use without fatigue. Its textured surface ensures a confident hold during any outdoor activity, from chopping and carving to slicing and utility work.
Included with the knife is a leather belt loop sheath, providing safe, reliable carry in the field. The sheath protects the blade while keeping it accessible, reflecting Bark River’s focus on combining practicality with quality. Every element of the Bush Seax, from steel choice and grind geometry to handle design and sheath construction, demonstrates a dedication to creating knives that last a lifetime.
