This is called the "Little Bear." I designed this blade with Joel Lisson of REACT Training Systems. Our goal was to create a blade tailored to the needs of his wilderness survival instructors and students. Whittling, skinning, camp chores and, if need be, defense--this is a good all around blade for outdoor use. Between Joel and I, there must be more than fifty combined years of experience dumped into the design. The name derives from the title given to Joel years ago by a tribe of Northwest Native Americans. He had been hired to re-teach them the primitive bushcraft skills of their ancestors. Afterward, the elders dubbed him Broken Bear, a great honor. Myself and some of the wilderness instructors decided the name also fit the knife. Joel accepted it as well, after some ribbing. This is another one you might see on television at some point. I use CPM 154 or Elmax, though I have made them in carbon too. The handle material can be either Terotuf, Micarta or G-10.
