Bark River Custom Drake CPM Cru-Wear Tan Burlap Micarta - Orange Liners - Brass Pins - Flat Grind

Bark River Custom Drake - CPM Cru-Wear with Tan Burlap Micarta

Tan burlap micarta with orange liners and brass pins creates a warmer palette on this custom Drake. Burlap micarta uses a coarser weave than canvas or linen variants, producing more pronounced texture that grips aggressively even when wet or bloody. The material wears into a polished patina over time while maintaining the tactile surface that makes it a favorite among hunters and outdoorsmen.

The flat grind runs the full 4.75" blade, creating edge geometry that bites into material without hesitation. Flat bevels respond well to field sharpening on whatever stones you have available—no specialized technique required to maintain the edge profile. CPM Cru-Wear earns its place on a working knife like the Drake through balanced performance rather than chasing any single metric. The steel holds an edge through extended cutting sessions, resists chipping when the work gets rough, and comes back to sharp without the fight that high-carbide steels often demand. Tungsten and molybdenum in the alloy allow for secondary hardening that pushes the steel to 60-65 HRC while maintaining impact resistance that approaches CPM 3V. At .125" thick and 5.96 ounces, the Drake stays practical for all-day carry and varied tasks.
