Bark River Chute Knife CPM 154, Black Canvas Micarta, Brass Guard

The Bark River Chute Knife is a cool knife with a remarkable history. This is Bark River's version of the Chute Knife as it was made by Bob Loveless in the 70s and 80s. He designed the knife with Harry Archer. A former paratrooper who served in Vietnam, and worked for the CIA. The Chute Knife was designed for paratroopers and the short cutting edge on the spine of the blade was designed as such to make sure paratroopers could free themselves if they, for instance, ended up in a tree.
