BPS Knives of Ukraine

While waiting for my Savage to wend its way here from Ukraine, I ordered a couple of BPS knives from Amazon. They arrived over the weekend. They are as well put together as everybody says, and are a couple of the smoothest and slickest paper-cutters I have ever taken out of the box. They are nothing you haven’s seen, but I will try to get some pics up soon.

Great stuff Henry 🙂👍

Received my BPS from big book store today. Great knife, well made, very sharp (passed phone book paper test OFB), well made sheath. How the UKraine BPS shop can produce such a nice knife for $20, I don't know - but they sure do. Buy one - support Ukraine.
Congratulations :thumbsup: Which model did you get?

Here's my Adventurer, the spine throws sparks from a ferro rod, like crazy :cool:

My Adventurer was delivered today:) I'm astonished at the quality for such a low price. It's really sharp out of the box and I'm going to mod it with blue and yellow liners, as well as a forced patina... But first, it's going on a hike with me on Sunday and clear some trails:)

The sheath is really nice, as I do like danglers very much, the leather is thick and the added firesteel a great touch!

Slava Ukraini!

Hey! Congratulations! Pretty incredible they're still making those knives isn't it? :cool: That's a great idea about the blue and yellow liners, can't wait to see how they look :) Enjoy your hike :thumbsup: Slava Ukraini! ✊

As promised, here are some pics. The dangler sheath turns out to be a nice fit for a BK16 as well:

My BPS friction folder finally arrived. It took 5 weeks, but still feels like a miracle. It's amazing that BPS could obtain the materials and manufacture the knife, and that the Ukrainian mail service could get it from there to my house halfway around the world. If you're ordering from the US, you should know that USPS had this marked as 'Signature Required'. I would have received it yesterday, if I had only heard the mailman. 🤨

The knife itself is very well made with a blade that's just shy of 3 inches and comes nicely sharpened. The scales are rougher than I expected, but it's not a negative. They provide a nice grip.

I didn't pay much attention to the sheath when I ordered it, but I'm glad it came with one. With the long tang and the ease with which it opens, it's not the kind of thing I would just throw into my pocket. 🤬

This will always be a special knife to me. One of the best parts about collecting knives (or anything, really), is the story that goes along with it. Without a story, it's just a knife.

Thanks r8shell r8shell and Jack Black Jack Black for pointing this fine company out, especially in times like this.

Very nice! I looked back through this thread and i think i ordered mine around the same time you did so hopefully i will see mine soon. My tracking stalled out weeks ago so we will see what happens. That friction fold is awesome!
