The Bear Claw was designed by Russ Kommer and it was made to be a self-defense knife for women.
This Bear Claw is different because it is a Rescue
type knife with a round point. This just shows that a self-defense or tactical knife for defense very easily can be turned into a tactical knife for rescue. It cannot be used for fighting at all anymore. It is now a pure special purpose knife. It can be used
for all kinds of Rescue work. Words can really not express how nice and versatile this knife is. It will save lives for sure! It can be attached in all kinds of places or directions. Bright orange handle that is very comfortable and safe. With the finger through
the hole it cannot be dropped.
I would recommend practicing some with it. Try to pull it out with one hand and make sure it is attached well. The serrations are aggressive and it cut rope without
any problem.
There are many rescue blades today in the market and I hope you can take some time to see my other rescue pages with the SAKs.
The
sheath is tight and strong for the Bear Claw and I cannot find any negative to say. I would recommend having a second knife with you, for example a multi-tool or a SAK is smart. In a kayak, fishing or at sea today usually require more tools.
This Bear Claw represents for me a very good quality rescue knife.
