Camillus BushCrafter Fixed Blade Knife with Leather Sheath, Brown/Grey, 8.5-Inch


Great Bushcraft Knife
This is an extremely solid knife. Some people are hesitant about the loop at the end of the handle. The steel is very thick. Unless you are using it to chisle out rock, I seriously doubt you will break the lanyard hole.

The micarta is a little rough but can easily be sanded and polished.

The blade was pretty sharp, but not as sharp as I like. It needed a little bit of polishing to remove the grinding burrs. Since this is a scandi grind an arkansas stone or a water stone is recommended. Start with a soft stone then move to a hard stone.

The sheath is very high quality. No retention is needed due to the tight fit and deep pocket. The piece of lacing is a little weak, dont depend on it for anything serious or other than looks. The stitching is very tight and straight. It reminds me of saddle work.

All in all, you will not be disapointed. This is a heavy solid knife that is built for use. The thick blade will be great for using fire...
