Bison Bushcraft Knives - 1
Bison Bushcraft Knives are all individually hand made. You can choose your own steel type and handle materials as well as take up different options with the scabbard. All of the Scandinavian grind knives are sharpened by hand on flat waterstones prior to delivery. This is the only way to achieve a truly flat grind without a secondary bevel.
All of our knives are hand-made to order and are subject to a waiting list, that is currently around 12 months.

Bison Bushcraft KnifeThe original and still the most popular. I make this model out of three millimetre thick 01 tool steel. Small and light enough to be carried unobtrusively around your neck or on your belt, yet strong and large enough to stand up to the rigours of bushcraft.
The Bushcraft knife has a flat ground blade profile as used by the Northern Scandinavians for hundreds of years, ideally suited to woodcutting and perfect for skinning and light splitting work. The grind profile being without a secondary bevel is easy to maintain in the field. Each knife comes with a combination belt / neck scabbard and a Swedish firesteel.

Bison Bushcraft Slipjoint Folder
My slipjoint folder is a sub three inch blade, non locking folding knife. Presently (2009 Feb) this is a UK legal EDC or every day carry pocket knife.
Rather than design the knife to have a three inch blade as is the legal maximum I’ve worked back from a useful handle size. I’ve chosen a grip shape and size that is both comfortable in the hand and the pocket and made the optimum blade size to suit.
The handle frame and bolsters are machined from solid stainless steel to add greater strength at the pivot, no soldered on bolsters are used on this knife. The pivot has bronze bushings to ensure a smooth action. The blade and spring are made from 01 tool steel with the blade ground to a scandi profile with a zero bevel.
There is a lanyard hole at the rear of the handle and the scales are mitred into the bolsters. Our normal selection of handle materials are available as are the steel options.
All of the parts from this knife are hand made by myself with no kit parts employed. The heat treatment I do myself.
The first 25 of these knives will be sequentially numbered.
Technical specs:
Closed length:
97mm
Blade length:
65mm
Blade thickness:
1.6mm
Blade steel:
01 tool steel

Slip-joint or spring-back folder non-locking with bronze pivot bushings. Scandinavian grind blade profile.

I can make a belt pouch for these folders as shown in the picture. Pouches are individually wet formed veg-tanned leather and fully lined with chamois.

Bushman's Pal 
A compact version of the woodcraft knife supplied in an oak tanned pouch style scabbard. A perfectly sized knife to carry in a pocket or day pack without the drawbacks of a folding knife. It has a full tang construction of 3mm blade stock that gives it the strength to cope with all the jobs of its larger brothers, but at 160mm overall length it remains unobtrusive.

Bushmans Pal 2 I thought I’d reached perfection with the Bushmans Pal, however further development has produced this model. It’s made from 2mm stock (hence the 2) with slightly different dimensions. This model is lighter in weight, slimmer in the handle, now with a lanyard hole as standard. The Bushmans Pal 2 has fibre liners to the handle scales to give the thinner scales strength whilst making the knife more pleasing to the eye.
Each knife is presented in a slim line, hand stitched, oak-tanned pouch with a Scandinavian type twisted loop/hanger.
Blade length: 75mm
Handle length: 90mm
