ERK Burl Handmade Bushcraft Knife: A True Testament to Craftsmanship

Built to Outlast the Wilderness

The ERK Burl Handmade Bushcraft Knife stands in a league of its own. Forged from 01 High Carbon tool steel, this knife delivers the strength, durability, and edge retention serious outdoorsmen demand. Designed for those who don’t compromise on performance, it’s a reliable partner for shelter building, food prep, and fire-starting tasks deep in the wild.

Handmade Strength with Timeless Materials

Every ERK Burl Handmade Bushcraft Knife begins with skilled craftsmanship. Shaped from premium 01 High Carbon tool steel, it holds an edge that bites into wood and stays sharp under heavy use. Measuring 22cm overall with a 10cm blade and a 6mm full tang, it gives you rock-solid stability in every cut. The burlwood handle, finished with black liners and a bespoke lanyard hole, feels natural in hand — strong, balanced, and ready for anything.

Precision Tested for Real-World Abuse

Before leaving the workshop, each knife undergoes meticulous testing to ensure optimal hardness and flexibility. Whether batoning kindling or carving traps, the ERK Burl Handmade Bushcraft Knife holds up without flinching. Minor hairline cracks in the handle, a characteristic of natural burl, add character without compromising strength. This is a blade made to be used, not coddled.

Functional Elegance with Heritage Appeal

Nothing cheapens a great knife faster than a bad sheath. Thankfully, this one comes with a handmade full grain leather sheath — friction-fit for secure carry, and rugged enough to age with grace. Small marks on the leather simply prove it’s genuine. As a pre-owned knife showing no signs of sharpening or abuse, it remains a fully functional piece of craftsmanship that any serious user or collector would be proud to own.
