The **Bark River Teddy** is a cool and stylish outdoor knife. It borrowed several design features from the knives made in Germany and the USA at the end of the 19th/beginning of the 20th century. Back then a real hunting knife, now the highlight of your collection!
The blade is made from A2 tool steel, a strong steel that would sooner bend rather than break. You do, however, need to be careful with moisture and acids: A2 is not completely stainless. Make sure to clean it after use and occasionally apply a drop of oil to keep this knife in great shape. The edge has a convex grind that can be maintained by [stropping](/en/ct/stropping.htm) it.
The handle of the Bark River Teddy is made from *stacked leather*. These are stacked leather discs which, combined, form one comfortable handle. On both sides the handle is flanked by a knife guard and pommel. The amount of manual labour involved is unimaginable for a (semi-)production knife such as this.
The Bark River Teddy comes with a luxurious leather belt sheath.
Bark River Knives makes all of its knives almost entirely by hand. This means that each knife is unique. Especially when working with natural materials, a knife may differ from the photos. Therefore the knife you receive might be subtly different from the product photos. The model and type of material, however, will always be the same.
