This video review by Nutnfancy examines the Bark River STS (Special Tactical Series) knife line, focusing on the STS-4, STS-5, and STS-8 models. The review highlights the US-made quality and the use of thick 154CM steel, a rarity in fixed blades. The STS-8 is tested for mountain survival and big woods performance, while the STS-5 is discussed as a military-inspired 'killing blade' with excellent penetration. The STS-4 is considered a potential tough EDC option. Key features like the convex ground edge, Kydex and leather sheaths, and micarta handle ergonomics (requiring sanding) are detailed. The value is deemed moderate due to the premium steel and overall cost exceeding $220. Despite some minor damage to the STS-8, durability is expected to be flawless, reflecting Bark River's signature quality.
