Bark River Knives Tour 2018

[@Some_1_Somewhere]

This is how you run a company! Hats off to all of you!

[@countryprepper4719]

I like that Mike isn't fake. He doesn't pretend. I will continue to keep buying these knives and support the families of this company.

[@haroldanderson2781]

Excellent job covering the factory and getting to know one of the owners. He seems terribly genuine. Thanks

[@OUTDOORS55]

So cool to see someone so passionate about what they do. Love it! Thanks for sharing 👍

[@49giants3]

OUTDOORS55 what’s crazy is this might be you one day Alex !

[@mikesharp4033]

Admirable craftsmanship, design and finishing. Also, I love the dry humour.

[@susanstoltz2555]

What an incredible inside look at how Bark River Knives are made! Actually I’ve never seen how any are made but this is really impressive. Quality control at its finest! Thanks for the tour. Great filming!

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

Yes it was very impressive!

[@19ADAM80]

Girl in the Woods Check out ApostleP channel... he has a lot of vids of them too, thanks for sharing it..!

[@erichan6985]

Thank you for the sweet video. Every American should have at least one BRK. Out of the tour vids this one really captures the love. Keep the knife love going strong !

[@Lisa1111]

Way to carry on Scott's legacy BRK! And that pup, Ein!! 😍 That was fun guys, thanks! Lisa in Seattle ❤

[@TheJohn93226]

Love Bark River Knives! All the people there are great and their knives are perfect! :)

[@matmin6221]

I feel like i visit the factory.. Thanks for the video..

[@jedi7fivewerewolf928]

Amazing knives, amazing company, amazing people. God bless you.

[@Lazydogsleep]

What an awesome operation. Bravo 1 was the first high quality knife I ever bought and still have it. Great video! Thank you for sharing.

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

thanks for stopping by!

[@SurvivalCitizen]

Nice to see where my Bark River Bravo 1.5 CPM 3V was born! Love that knife!

[@cherylt8590]

Wow,ty for the tour,I enjoyed it for sure,👍💙😊...

[@TwoTracksOutdoors]

Great BRK plant tour and I felt privileged that owner Mike Stewart allowed you both to film the different processes of making a knife and sharing it with us. I found myself drooling over all his knives laying on the various tables and work stations throughout the tour. I was just as impressed when Mike indicated you could send your knife back in and have it repolished at no charge, except for the shipping. Don't know of too many companies that do that. You could feel the pride of work ethic on the part of all the employees as you took your camera through the different rooms and watched Mike explain some of the processes entailed in making a BRK knife. Kudos to BRK and all of you for making and allowing this video to be made. It was so great to observe the methods of manufacturing from one of the premiere USA knife makers.

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

Yeah it was awesome!

[@dennisley3553]

I am really glad that you did this video. I love Mike Stewart, his family and his [awesome] bladed tools. I would not even consider going into the BWCA, or the Canadian Parks without his knives.

[@LarsRibe]

OMG! The craftsmanship that goes into those knives. Cool.

[@davidrogers182]

When egos are not more important than the product! Professionalism shines and superior Gold standard production occurs! I respect what Bark River does!

[@shawnr771]

Cool. Cant wait for the video showing the build. Super nice of the Bark River company to let yall in.

[@gdsumner1]

Very humble man...much respect! Making a quality knife.

[@Myn6211]

Phenomenal. Every step hand done, my goodness. This tour has certainly given me a real appreciation for Bark River Knives. I must admit I kind of cringed when I first saw the prices of their knives but now I understand that you are really getting excellent quality and workmanship for that money. Thanks for sharing.

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

yeah but they're beautiful!

[@dragonclaw88]

new star of bark river....that dog is awesome....we need more...

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

yeah he was HUGE!

[@sharonhammonds7769]

Very interesting documentary. Thank you for sharing with us.

[@jeffnotti9932]

There you go with the bushy again..... WOW Bark River is very cool... i think i gotta get me one..

[@davekibbey7944]

The owner greets you at the door not in a three piece suit, but wearing a sweat shirt with grinding dust on the front. That tells me that he is hands on when running his company. To me that is impressive. Thank you for the tour.

[@adrianeyre3630]

No lunch! Cheeky smile from his son. great vid guys

[@gosmoothgolight7567]

P.S. Congratulations to you both on 20 years of marriage! Two awesome people who found each other ... and living an awesome life of adventure together. So happy for you both! Thanks for the UP your ... I may get back there this year. We'll see ... :)

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

thank you!

[@projectilecomet8382]

Wow so much respect for this guy ✊

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

that's a cool idea duck! yep, doesn't surprise me you're staying busy!

[@marekmasar5216]

Thank you so much for this!!! For me Bark River is the best knife company (fixed blade) using best quality materials ,what I would call midtech fit and finish like mass-produced!!! There is no-one that do what they do... Big dream of my, unfortunately I moved to Indonesia recently and we don't have them here and if you find aftermarket it's gonna cost 2-3times the original price!!! One day I will have it and I go for CPM 4V

[@rockytopwrangler2069]

Incredible operation. enjoyed every minute of it ,the numbers are staggering.Producing an amazing product,think I might have to find a style for me. Can't help but say ,I love that dog,,.Thank you Brooke and Dave ,would never get a chance to see something like that without your involvement....Stay safe and God Bless....

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

ya I know- huge amount of knives!

[@JenniferinIllinois]

Thank you for the tour Brooke. I've never heard of this company before. Amazing products!!!

[@christopherreily1895]

This is fantastic, thanks for sharing. Love my BR Bravo 1!! What a great American company.

[@rbmac10]

Awesome thanks for this video I've been kicking around taking their weekend class grind in and after watching this I can't wait to take the class and make a knife what a nice guy and operation definitely be proud to carry their knifes.

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

yeah me too

[@kenstrampe7609]

WOW that was cool and very interesting. its amazing what all goes into making a great quality knife. thanks for the great tour.

[@swampdonkeyoffgrid190]

Great vid guys ! I have several bark river knives and they are top notch. The stewart family are great people and have put together a fine company.

[@quantum470]

This was a great tour of their shop! Thanks! :)

[@kriskabin]

👏👏 10:27 Mike's comments on the value of women in his company. ( It's why I just bought a beautiful Bark River Cub.) 👏👏👍

[@BigTrekkie]

Wow. That was awesome. Thanks for the great video.

[@KyraRane]

This is so fascinating!! Thanks for sharing.

[@zRockin1]

Hi Brooke, I watched Dave's video before this one and it sure is cool to watch both to get to see more, thanks for sharing, Rock On!

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

Cool thanks you're a dear for watching both!

[@zRockin1]

Just a fan of both channels, you two Rock!

[@africanwidow]

Nice company! I was not sure about Bark River... but now I want one. And yes, I live in Michigan! Beautiful knives and like how they do things. Great video tour!

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

yeah they're great

[@semco72057]

I didn't know where their knives was made and I learned more the last two months and is glad that I did find that this company is in Michigan. I saw some of their knives on KZbin channels and the owners love their knives.

[@harrysbushcrat]

THIS IS AWESOME!! This is the shortest 22 minutes 27 seconds of my life. Mike is so nice man. I can feel his passion, enthusiasm, and dedication to his work. I don't say it's business. That must be his life work instead of "business". The new knife that has a finger hole is very attractive to me. I should check the DTL's site out right away. Thank you for sharing this video for us.

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

yeah it was awesome to get an inside look!

[@charlesgutzwiller5988]

Usa ,bark river will fit my money .from what I see on your video is a wonderful company good people and my fave the dog!

[@opichocal]

What a cool place and genuine hard working people. I can’t wait to get my next bark river

[@archwhitemage]

this video convinced me to purchase a bark river knife in the future. Good Job.

[@msims1250]

Great video! I love Bark River Knives so this was fascinating to me. I definitely want a Donnybrook and a Tier 1. Thanks so much for the video.

[@1rdgrnnr]

great tour, an amazing shop !!!! thanks !!

[@TREX3151]

Great video guys! I'm a big fan of BRK. Every time we go up to Marquette I have to stop at the knife shops. Look forward to your next video!

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

yeah pretty sweet!

[@cillaloves2fish688]

That was awesome!! So cool!!

[@Eagleone9747one]

Good job, thanks for the tour.

[@samsworldofrations6996]

Great video of the tour glad you guys enjoyed it👍

[@jwo1923]

Love watching this tour. Great information on the process of knife making. One of my brothers makes knives that he sells at flea markets around where he lives. If you ever make it to Tennessee, be sure to go to the Smoky Mountain Knife Works located in Sevierville, TN. 108,000 square feet of knives, survival gear, kitchen ware, and antiques. With a few other goodies for the kids and family. It's definitely an all day visit to see everything. The place has multi levels of awesomeness. 😉

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

cool!

[@timwoods603]

Another great video guys. I know where my next knife is coming from.

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

me too

[@AnthonyFister]

Awesome! Thanks for posting this tour of BRKT factory. Bark River is one of my favorite knife manufacturers. I sharpen knives as a hobby business and I'm often asked "what knife should I buy?". Depending on what the purpose is behind the question, my BRKT knives get pulled out to show them. I am sharing this video on my business website and FB page. Apex Knife Sharpening (Apex, NC)

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

thanks anthony!

[@riverrunner23]

Great video, thanks. Just ordered the Aurora 3V green canvas micarta - matte finish, from DLT. My 1st BRK.

[@genefoster9770]

thanks for the great video incredible knives I want one of each of them thank you

[@jeffsmith6441]

Awesome tour! I really want a Bark River knife! Even more so now. 😁

[@aray9628]

Bark River Knives is hands-down the best knife company on the planet. I wish I could work there I just live in South Carolina and it sucks!

[@vianonamitchell4114]

So interesting! Great tour!

[@Uniquelyyours1]

Awesome vid, Brooke. Thanks for sharing:)

[@roberth8877]

Great video, great knives. Best regards from the netherlands.

[@rorystarks6910]

I was on the fence about buying a Bark River Knife, but this video persuaded me to go for it . . . even though I have a few other fixed blade knives!

[@bobashmore6442]

Awesome video Brooke, thanks. Ladies first, obviously, but now I'm heading over to "Bushy's" channel! (I see that he's not cringing every time you call him that anymore)

[@getsmart3701]

Best knives from America, by a country mile...period.

[@natek1993]

I Love that Pine Cone handle scales. That would look so nice on any knife.

[@federico02072]

This was fantastic im gonna check out their website

[@nomadicoasis9260]

Wow ! so lucky to get a tour like that. thanks I like the Classy woman model with the fur top boots... If she comes with a Bravo #1 I'll take her.

[@nomadicoasis9260]

Was just checking out how lucky I was to get a hearted comment... I see the world is blessed today. feels like it to me, coffee in the sunshine & a whole day to do what I want. :) so I didn't see the way they cut out the blanks or do the heat treating - what kind of kilns do they have ?????????? ya I'm weird like that !? who really cares why , It's not to hard to live with my self. SO I was wondering if Bushy was bright eyed enough to catch the tail end of the shop you missed ??? please say he did ! that girl with the boots looked practical... I like that . but sadly it occurred to me she may not like being Fedexed anywhere bravo #1 or no . to bad finding some one is not practical... I'd settle for a decent treasure map, but who can assure my there's love at the end. I'm going out to the shop to build a sterling silver handle for my Wok lid ! that I CAN do . see-ya Brooke.

[@axerxes3981]

Brooke.... I thought this would be as boring as snot, but you surprised me!! Excellent video. Lots of terrific information. Just wish I could afford something like that, LOL. Thanks for sharing.... great job. BTW... nice to see you didn't get rid of Dave too. Love ya....... Ax

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

thank you!

[@marycmcnaught]

Wow what a set up! Seems to be a really great company that goes the extra mile for the customer. Bet you wanted several of those knives😁

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

yep!

[@cosmiccharlie8294]

Yep, I'm gonna order one today!

[@brandona.6337]

Great video guys , I’m a big fan of Barkriver knives their quality is second to none for a production knife company and I currently have a Bravo 1 field knife in my collection 👍🏻🇺🇸✌🏻

[@mrmkloven6183]

Never bought a fixed blade but I’m gonna order one today. These look nice and the lifetime spa service makes it worth the price.

[@scottb.0185]

When I come over to the USA, I would stalk BRK’s for sure!🇦🇺

[@tonysmith9061]

Loved the video!

[@samdesmet7637]

This was awesome. Thanks.

[@sarge27271]

Well, I can swear my next knife will be a Bark River. For some reason, always thought BR was some large faceless corp. Am I stunned?! You actually tugged at my heart strings there a bit with the Airborn Knives division deal. Very big of you. Kudos. Well, time to check out which new BRK will grace my side. Awesome story. Can't wait for the knife build vid. Thanks for the great video. Cheers

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

thanks much i agree!

[@yakoobjunior9631]

A beautiful company that makes beautiful knives. I know, because I own a Bark River Bushcrafter ll knife and love it. Buying more models through DLT Trading soon 👍

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

LOL

[@nevillesavage2012]

I am a big fan of your channels

[@Christof_Classen]

12:30 *This is why i love Bark River, "Any Knife IS RAZOR SHARP" ;)* 14:43 *This will be my next Neck Knife !*

[@johntaylor346]

As a knife smith I found this video inspiring. Thank you for this. I love the hidden tang knives they do. I've read that they do Black jack knives so it was cool to see them on the table. My favorite knife smith is Bo Randall. Also Swamp Fox. I make knives that are a mix of the two. I like to do full flat with convex edges mirror polished. Dont like slab knives they are too cookie cutter simple. I use 01 like most Randall knives.

[@Plain-Ole-Chuck]

Great tour!!!!

[@SeidlNorbert]

Wow...looks like some Factory’s in Solingen, and the Boss seems to be a good Guy, also the son, smart! I like their clean and practically Design and also 3V; I do not own one yet, but this circumstances has to change, I think 🤔! Thank you for this good idea, was very interesting...So...must leave now, had to choose a model... 😉
