The Blackfeather Journey is designed and made by Joe Hunnicutt of Blackfeather Knives. He named it after his Daughter so you know it has to be a special design to him. After a mere 6 hours worth of use, my initial impression is that it is an excellent knife; in fact, it is an evolution or a game changing design in the world of smaller companion or EDC sized blades. The full review will be in about 3 or 4 weeks from now. I hope you enjoy!
In simplicity, this is a ground pad design that came to mind that solves many of my "complaints" about camp life and firecraft in Western North Carolina.
Again, many thanks to Anna G for putting this together for me. Your skills rock woman!!

The Bark River Squad leader is a more tactical flavored Bravo design with a pronounced swedge for extreme tip strength and penetration. The A2 blade is a bit taller giving it more heft with still a great balance. And the pronounced pommel works well for both a lanyard and for grinding and pounding tasks. Even with the more tactical focus, this blade still shines at bushcraft like the others in the Bravo Series.

In this video we take The Bark River Adventurer through various EDC styled tasks to see how it holds up as well as the new Elmax steel Bark River is making them from.

The LT Wright Next Gen is the baby brother to the Genesis. The Next Gen has some big shoes to fill while living in the shadow of the Genesis and it surely does not disappoint. Aesthetically, functionally, and by feel it performs very much like the Genesis just in a smaller package. The Next Gen is a great all around camp craft, firecraft, and camp cooking knife.
