The Carter Bush Knife was designed with the bushcrafter in mind. It is a great mid-size all-purpose knife. I make these with different handle materials but Micarta is favorite because of it's incredible toughness and it is waterproof. I originally called these my Rio Grande knife but there was some confusion with other knives by that name so now I simply call them my Bush Knife. This is one of my personal everyday carry knives when I am in the woods.
