The BROC Knives Horseman is a knife designed by the founders of the Living to Learn group on FaceBook and Davie Crawford of BROC Knives. It is designed specifically to be an "in the woods" One Tool Option. This video is my initial use and initial impressions of this monster of a blade. All design parties are from Ireland so this knife truly has that Irish flair. There is definitely more to come on this blade.
