The Bark River Kwaiken takes its inspiration from the slim, straight-lined Japanese utility knife that’s been around for centuries, reimagined here in Mike Stewart’s unmistakable Bark River style. The blade is narrow and keen, making it especially useful for slicing tasks where control and precision matter – think camp kitchen prep or neat woodwork in the field.
This version wears black canvas Micarta scales, which offer an excellent grip, even when wet. Being a full-tang build, the knife has Bark River’s trademark robustness, balanced with a surprisingly light and lively feel in hand. The polished convex grind is easy to maintain and helps the blade glide cleanly through material.
Made in Escanaba, Michigan, the Kwaiken bridges old Japanese elegance with American practicality – a tool that feels at home in both bushcraft and everyday carry roles.
