Saw in another forum that kuiu has been sold to an investment bank. It seemed odd all the latest sales and sale extensions the last several months. Be interested to see how it impacts quality, I have been happy with everything I have bought. I’m sure you will be able to buy it in buccees and get kuiu sunglasses and kuiu Kleenex and kuiu spices and rubs like all the other camo manufacturers.

I will assume the quality won’t get exponentially better.

Maybe they will get some camo patterns that actually blend in with the landscape.

Then how will people know I'm wearing Kuiu with their unique patterns?


Guess I could put a Kuiu bumper sticker next to my Drake sticker.

I have been watching the growth of Montana knife company and expect them to sell in 5-7yrs. I need to get me one before they go to shite.

Same thing happened to Icebreaker merino wool in 2018 and their quality promptly went to shite.

I have been kicking this exact scenario around for the last couple of weeks. It’s going to happen. But do I need another skinning knife especially $300+? Probably.

Jason died in 2018. He would have never sold Kuiu, especially after what happened with Jonathan Hart and Sitka.

Brendan Burns will still be the face and Chief Hunting Officer. The leadership and operations are to remain the same from what I'm told.

I didn’t know that. Were they at Morgan Keegan before the merger?

What's up with one of the head guys of this investment firm being the guy suing the hunters in corner crossing case? Did I read that right?

Not the corner crossing suit but a suit involving waterways.
Check this out in Montana you can enter a river walk the said river and as long as your feet stay covered in water you are not trespassing. I guess he didnt appreciate it when a lowlife blue collar walks half a mile from public access and fishes in front of his hobby ranch!!
