yea Jim62, I think that anyone who has tried to own thier own business and manage employees can sympathise and appreciate what Mike has done with Bark River. Trying to hire and manage employees to produce hand made items is it's own kind of hell dealing with quality control.

I think that Mike has done an excellent job and backs it with superb customer service if it's ever needed.

I've been buying more Bark River knives than any others, probably the next knife I buy will be one of the 3V Bravo-1's................................dj


Remember this is all supposed to be for fun.......................
