The brand stands out for its production of tactical and serious-use knives, designed for operators (soldiers, law enforcement, instructors) as well as EDC (Every Day Carry) enthusiasts or fans of sturdy blades.
The brand's philosophy revolves around unique and functional designs with distinctive and often aggressive aesthetics, with ideas that originate from the operational world and the designer's personal vision. The blades are made from high-quality steel, and many models feature special details such as custom finishes and ergonomic handles.
Bawidamann is not an industrial manufacturer: many knives are produced in limited quantities or small batches available only through the manufacturer's website, making them difficult to find in Europe and highly sought after by collectors.

The name itself is no accident: careful research has led to an exceptional result that is appreciated by enthusiasts in the field. The blade has an ideal shape for bushcraft activities, while the handle offers excellent ergonomics. Compared to the standard model, the Bushcrafter II is slightly larger, with a blade over an inch longer.
Made of CPM 3V steel, the blade is extremely durable and retains its sharpness for a long time. However, it is not completely stainless, so it should be cleaned after use and occasionally oiled to prevent corrosion. The edge has a convex bevel, which is easy to maintain by sanding.
The handle is made of fine desert ironwood burl, a hardwood from the U.S. and Mexico, featuring an elegant grain that gives the knife a luxurious look. The leather sheath allows for both vertical (belts up to 2 inches) and diagonal carry.
Each Bark River knife is handcrafted and one-of-a-kind.

Spartan Blades - Spartan-Harsey Kukri - SBSL007BK - Knife
Produced in Olean, NY, in collaboration with the skilled people at KA-BAR knives, the Spartan-Harsey Kukri knife has been designed to be a highly durable hiking knife. The kukri features a blade of over 22cm, making it an all-around tool due to its center of mass, allowing the user to slice while cutting to even penetrate thick objects.
While this blade is primarily famous for its military use, the kukri is more commonly employed as a multi-purpose tool in fields and homes across Nepal. Its uses range from construction, clearing, cutting firewood, digging, butchering animals for food, slicing meat and vegetables, skinning animals, to opening cans.
It can function as a smaller knife using the narrower part of the blade closer to the handle. The heavier and wider end of the blade, towards the tip, functions as a hatchet or a small shovel.
Intended Use: Tactical / Military
Production Type: Industrial

Blade: 1095 carbon steel 56/58HRC
Blade Finish: Black Powder Coating
Handle: Injection-molded Thermoplastic

History of the Model
The Model 7 was designed as a scaled-down version of the Model 3 Hunter.
Almost immediately, the idea of a scaled-down version of the new Hunter dawned on Bo Randall as an ideal knife for his fellow anglers. An avid fisherman since his youth, Bo regarded this new knife as a labor of love and immediately set to work on the project. At first he tried 4- and 4.5-inch blades, but then opted for the 4 1/2-inch one. Bo wanted the right handle for cleaning brook trout and similar sized fish, so he reduced the size of the handle of the new Hunter and changed its shape. Naturally, he called this model the "Fisherman," and some early prototypes with 4-inch blades were delivered to some dealers during the latter part of September 1945.AP-RAND7-4V -
