Ever heard of Joker Knives? The company doesn’t have the brand recognition of some of the big box names like Buck or Benchmade, or any other mass-produced knives, but they do make simple patterns using excellent steels and noteworthy scale materials, and their knives are handcrafted in Spain. 

Here are 3 great models from their catalog. 

Bushcrafter with N695 Steel and Black Canvas Micarta Scales

The Joker Bushcrafter, like many Joker Knives, is available in several configurations. Here’s what you’ll love about this one: 

• The 4.13” flat-ground blade is highly utilitarian for bushcraft tasks, like carving camp tools, making feathersticks, or just preparing food.
• N695 super steel is rich in chromium and molybdenum, offering exceptionally good corrosion resistance and hardness, for solid edge retention. 
• The canvas micarta scales are unassuming, support a strong grip in all conditions, and will never require any maintenance. 
• Generous jimping at the base of the knife spine assures a secure grip even when the knife is wet or greasy, especially in a saber grip. 
• It comes with a handsome leather sheath that supports dangle carry.

Ember with 14C28N Steel and Curly Birch Handle 

Roughly the same size as the Bushcrafter, the Ember is also a highly utilitarian blade, with a handle that sports a touch more flair: 

• The 4.13” blade supports the same utility as the Bushcrafter, but this one is Scandi ground for a tougher edge and potentially easier resharpening. 
• The 14C28N blade can take a razor edge and will stand up to rough conditions; the corrosion-resistance of this alloy is excellent. 
• The curly birch handle is beautiful in aesthetic and provides warm purchase in the hand. 
• Simple ergonomics are reminiscent of traditional Scandinavian knife patterns. 
• It comes with a leather sheath designed for dangle carry, and incorporates a firesteel loop.

Nessmuk with 14C28N Steel and Walnut Handle 

For hunters, a Nessmuk pattern knife is an excellent choice. This is one of the best out there:

• A 4.5” blade with a generously swept Muk profile that is optimized for graceful, arcing cuts. This knife is ideal for skinning and processing harvests. 
• 14C28N steel is extremely corrosion resistant and holds an edge well.
• Handle ergonomics support comfort in multiple types of grips.
• The walnut handle is attractive and offers classic aesthetics. 
• Utilitarian profile supports a wide range of sporting applications. 
• It comes with a leather sheath with high-strength, reinforced stitching.
