A good knife should do two things – perform flawlessly and satisfy that little part of you that’s looking for a reason to take it out. Bear and Son Cutlery follow the tradition established way back in history when Jim Bowie fashioned the knife that opened the wilderness. Bear and Son Cutlery is proud to put their name on dependable knives that outdoorsmen are proud to carry. Skilled artisans craft each knife with care, creating affordable, high quality tools that are strong, durable and ready for the field. Every step of the knife-making process, from dies to heat treatments to grinding and assembly, is performed in the Bear and Son Cutlery factory. Under the watchful eyes of the craftsmen, high carbon hollow-ground stainless steel blades become hunting knives, skinners, guthooks, and lockbacks. Damascus steel blades are worked into stag bone or mother of pearl handles for a beautiful, durable example of knifemaking artistry. When you see the name Bear and Son Cutlery on a knife, you know you're getting quality craftsmanship, field tested durability and value for your money.
