Product detailed description
The Bark River Kephart 4 Tan Burlap 3V is a traditionally styled knife inspired by the classic design of Horace Kephart, legendary traveler and outdoor writer. The blade, approximately 108 mm long, is made of premium CPM 3V tool steel, known for its high toughness, chipping resistance, and excellent corrosion resistance. The blade thickness reaches 2.5 mm, which ensures solid strength during more demanding use – from lighter chopping to woodworking and detailed work.
The blade geometry consists of a flat grind with a smooth transition to the tip, which improves cutting performance and provides maximum control over the cut. The shape of the blade faithfully follows Kephart's original design – the straight guard and symmetrical line support a wide range of uses in camping, bushcraft, and hunting activities.
The handle is made of Tan Burlap Micarta panels, a laminate of jute fabric and resin, which offers a secure grip even when wet and creates a natural, rustic look. Elegant red liners add striking contrasting detail and overall visual depth to the knife. The handle is also fitted with mosaic pins, which emphasize the premium workmanship and aesthetic value of the knife. The handle profile is rounded and ergonomically shaped, slightly tapered towards the front for a comfortable and secure grip during long periods of work. At the end of the handle is a paracord hole for better security or easier handling.
The total length of the knife is approximately 222 mm and the weight of around 129 grams makes this model a well-balanced tool suitable for all-day wear in the field. The package also includes a high-quality hand-stitched leather sheath that protects the blade and allows for comfortable carrying on a belt in an upright position.

In the production of blades, Bark River combines classic knife-making techniques with modern heat treatment technologies, achieving a balanced ratio between toughness, sharpness, and wear resistance.

Each knife feels balanced and predictable, which users will appreciate when performing precise and forceful tasks.
