OutdoorHub 12.27.12
Buck Knives is proud to be the presenting sponsor of the new series, Dropped: Project Yukon, and accompany brothers, Chris and Casey Keefer, on their 30 day journey. Eating only what they can shoot or catch and enduring the most intense environments, the brothers set out through the dangerous Canadian wilderness on an ultimate trek for survival. The men, outfitted with knives by Buck Knives, depend on their attributes for survival.
This documentary-style show brings the reality of the outdoors to the screen and allows viewers to experience the thrill of the hunt and adventure of the battle as the two brothers test their true outdoorsman skills against the harsh wilderness. Armed with only a limited amount of gear, they are dropped into the remote Yukon and forced to use their hunting and survival skills to catch, trap, shoot, and prepare their food. Buck Knives is honored to be the knife of choice for these survivalists.
“We have over 110 years in the field and our roots are in the outdoors,” said Bob George, Director of Sales and Marketing for Buck Knives. “Our knives are developed to withstand the most vigorous situations and to assist our customers when they need it most. It’s an honor to provide Chris and Casey with the tools they need for this adventure, and have them attest to the quality of Buck Knives.”
The first season, Dropped: Project Alaska, recently received CableFAX Daily’s, “Best Show or Series: Animal/Nature” award for 2012. Up against shows airing on National Geographic and the Discovery channel, as well as other cable networks, the award embraces the ground-breaking hit show and the instant popularity this original hunting show has gained.
