Layaway Information

Layaway Policies

We offer a layaway plan on select products so you may pay for your order over a period of 60 days. Products that are eligible for layaway will show "Layaway Available: Yes" on the product page.

Here's how it works:

The total amount of the order excluding shipping, tax, or fees is divided into three (3) equal payments. The first payment is due with the order, the second payment is due 30 days later, and the final payment is due 60 days after the order.

There is a $15 non-refundable fee for layaway orders. This fee is added to the first payment along with the shipping and any tax. The first payment is made when the order is placed.

Example: Your order total is $300 plus $12.75 shipping and handling. If you select the layaway option, your payments would be:

  • $127.75 (1/3 of purchase = $100 + $15 layaway fee + $12.75 shipping)
  • $100.00 (1/3 of purchase = $100)
  • $100.00 (1/3 of purchase = $100)

If your initial payment is made by credit card, we will automatically process the 2nd and 3rd payments at the appropriate time using the same credit card information. You will be reminded via email that a payment will be charged. If you need to change this for any reason, please contact us.

For payments made other than credit card, payment must be received within seven (7) days of the due date or the order is subject to cancellation. You will receive a reminder via email that a payment is due.

If you wish to complete payment early and have your order shipped, you may contact us at any time during the 60 day period. There is no penalty for prepayment.

Additional products may be added to a layaway order without penalty. A new payment schedule will be calculated based on when additional products are added.

If you wish to complete payment early and have your order shipped, you may contact us at any time during the 60 day period. There is no penalty for early payment.

Cancellations of layaway orders are subject to a restocking/processing fee of 10% of the order total (not including tax and shipping costs). This restocking fee is in addition to the $15 non-refundable layaway fee.

Overview

The new Trailbuddy III is Bark River’s Version of a modern camp knife. This large knife is not heavy in the hand and is excellent for butchering and food prep for large groups at camp. It will also make very short work of kindling for your campfire and can also easily be used for trail clearing.

The actual inspiration of the design has its roots in the 1915 Woodcraft. We have made it much larger and designed it to fill the role of a camp knife. This large versatile knife is comfortable in the hand and has a natural balance that will not wear out the user. The large cutting curve of this knife makes it very efficient for slicing large pieces of meat and fast enough in the hand to use on the prep of vegetables for large meals at a camp full of hunters.  The Trailbuddy III will fit right into your battery of tools for camp.

1st production run. Black canvas micarta scales. Comes with original box, sheath and papers. Has some light scratches, otherwise excellent condition.
