Browse the shopRike V1 refines the proven DNA of the Bran into a more specialised, performance-driven tool aimed at experienced bushcrafters. Built around the same uncompromising standards of durability and field reliability, the Rike V1 strips back the guard to create a cleaner, uninterrupted handle-to-edge transition—allowing for superior control and more efficient power transfer during demanding cuts and extended carving sessions. With a broader 32mm blade, the Rike V1 delivers increased stability through wood, making it exceptionally capable in heavy-duty tasks such as batoning and controlled splitting. The true Scandinavian grind ensures precise edge geometry for clean bites and easy field maintenance, while the added blade height improves tracking and reduces binding under load. The ergonomic sub-grip handle is designed for advanced hand positioning, giving the user greater leverage and nuanced control across a range of techniques—from fine feathering to aggressive stock removal. This configuration rewards skill and proper technique, making the Rike V1 particularly suited to seasoned practitioners who demand responsiveness and efficiency from their tools. Purpose-built for specialist bushcraft use, the Rike V1 is not just an evolution—it’s a deliberate step toward uncompromised performance in the hands of those who know how to use it.
