Browning has expanded its line of knives with the introduction of a new family, called Bush Craft. The new line features several fixed-blade models designed with the hunter and camper in mind.

The Bush Craft Ultra has an overall length of 9” with a 4-1/6” flat ground, brush finished, fixed drop/skinner blade shape. The blade is made of 7Cr17MoV stainless steel and features ant-skid grooves on the spine. It ships with an MSRP of $39.99.

Featuring an carbide fire starter, the Bush Craft Ignite knife is available in two models—one with a checkered cocobolo wood handle and the other with a black G-10 handle. Both include a fixed drop point blade made of 7Cr17MoV stainless steel and showcase the Browning Buckmark logo laser engraved in the handle. It ships with an MSRP of $59.99.

Designed for heavy-duty work around a campsite, the Bush Craft Camp knife is built tough with full-tang construction. The 9-1/16” flat ground blade is made of 440 stainless steel and the overall length of the knife is 15”. The blade is a fixed semi-bolo design with a titanium finish. An injection-molded, heavily checkered, polymer handle affords a sure grip. The knife has a lanyard eyelet and comes with a rugged reinforced nylon belt sheath with a snapped retaining strap. Retail price is $39.99.

The Bush Craft Knife/Light Combo features a sharp fixed blade knife and a handy pen light that fits securely into a special sleeve in the reinforced nylon belt sheath. The knife has a hollow ground 4-1/2” blade made of 7Cr17MoV stainless steel. The handle is a black injection molded design with heavy checkering for a sure grip. Overall length is 8-1/2”. The pen light produces 60 lumens of light from 2 AAA batteries (included) and will run up to 2-1/2 hours. Suggested retail for the combo is $49.99.

Smart Optics 101

Smart optics are changing the way hunters and shooters approach distance, accuracy and confidence in the field.
