Re: Knife store/specialty knife store
Another vote for North Arm Knives. I own two. They are well made and durable. Local guys who are very friendly.

Support canadian if you can and there’s no reason not too as their products are far better than any Chinese piece of shit with a fancy name.
I Second the Grohman selection. Fine Canadian blades, Solid reputation.

Stainless fixed blade with studs/rivets bowie knife what i'm looking for, then just a nice all purpose/camp knife because I lost my last one in Sept. I've got all the skinning and gutting knives I need. Was thinking about a nice backcountry folding knife with a saw 2 in one as well if I have enough but that one can wait
Huh, I never ever thought of wearing a big a$$ knife for bear/lion protection??!! I've always had a defender/hunting rifle with me!! I always have my buck fixed blade on my hip, guess I subconciously did carry one for that? Anyways, I like the North arm stuff, don't own one yet, but handled a few, and they are nice! Moosin
