My new knives

[Sean The Silver Fox]

Hi all

Just received my new knives that I had made by Bernie Garland www.berax.co.uk. Pictures below. I have had 2 new knives made as a pair. A large camp knife and a smaller knife for meat and food preperation. I am really excited about them and am looking forward to the weekend to try them out.

The smaller one is a neck knife and I have had a firesteel made to go with it. THe larger camp knife is really well balanced and feels very comfy in the hand. It feels like I have a lot of control even with it being a larger knife.

Included in the photo is the first knife I had made by Bernie and the possibles pouch as well.

Bernie if you read this then great work and thank you very much. I am over the moon.

Congrats Sean! You're going to have a lot of fun braking those babies in ... lol.

Absolutely beautiful work Bernie! What wood was selected for the handle scales? It's beautiful. Tell us a bit about the pair if you don't mind ...

Love the belly on that camp knife. Ought to make short work of any tinder and firewood needs you might have around camp, that's for sure.

Shaun, you are a lucky man having a good set like that. Something to take pride in every time it's used.

Bernie - Nice work! By the way Bernie, you have pm.

Bernie made the scales out of Box Elder Burr. Both the camp knife and the smaller Prepping Knife as I call it are the same. My Rabbiter I am not sure what the scales are but If Bernie is on here Im sure he'll let you know. The photos do not really do the knives justice and its not until you hold and use the camp knife you really appreciate how good it is.

Send the knives to me and I'll try to get some pictures that do the knives justice, honest!



Cracking knives you've got there, Bernies' knives really do cut the mustard, and the meat and wood and cordage and anything else you want to cut!
