The kinship between Black Bear Brand and The Last Knife Fighter is rooted in many of our philosophies and approaches towards life. Buddy get my knife was the song that brought us together. Here's a special acoustic version of Buddy Get My Knife by The Last Knife Fighter for Black Bear Brand in celebration of their kinship.
The American West, where a ghost of the wild west is still alive. It is raw, untamed, and vast; I love it, I feel free; it is magnificent.
I've ditched my helmet a couple hundred miles earlier in Montana. I'm riding into Wyoming through Yellowstone National park. Its summer, nature is alive, the colors, the smells... my senses are going wild, everything is intensified. I'm alive.
I'll be at a friends ranch in Moran, Wyoming.... soon.
music: The Last Knife Fighter
June 25th I jumped on my 1948 Panhead; tracked across Washington, through Montana… arriving in Wyoming on June 28th!
Here's a peak into my day hanging out with friends: Grant Colliher, Luke Darling, and Chris Douglas... at Diamond Cross Ranch.

the unquestionable freedom found at Sea!
Josh Sirlin is in love with his 1948 Panhead. And with freedom, adventure. And so, the creative director of the Black Bear Brand went on a trip through America’s Wild West.
