Outfitted with the buyer’s choice of red oak, black or brown burlap G10-style scales, The Bear by Bear Forest Knives of Palm Desert, Calif., is a handcrafted blade meant for everyday work, whether employed as a hunting knife, camp tool or EDC blade.

Crafted from 80CrV2 steel with a sharp, saber grind, The Bear’s 4.5"-long, 1/8"-thick blade features full-tang construction and offers up a deep belly, clipped point and an acid-washed finish.

An integral guard is provided as the blade transitions to its nearly 5"-long handle, which is designed with a smooth, oval-shaped cross section for a universal grip.

The high-carbon steel blade comes protected in a brown leather JRE Industries sheath with dangler and ferro loop.
