Looks a solid knife but as you say custom chargers are ridiculous, if I had that sort of money for a knife I'd be speaking to Kev, his work blows me away.👍🏻

How's you Alec...🤔If I'm listening to anyone who can give a true opinion in s knife 🔪 it's of course yourself & I agree about the TAX it's shocking buy from the UK Appreciate you time Bud....🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🫶🇬🇧👍

Thanks man I’ve always had half an eye on Busse knives but for the cost I think my cash will stay in the UK

Wow, idk how im only just finding your channel. Seriously underrated stuff. Thanks for sharing

A sweep is where its at 👍

At the min alex I use my leuku knife i made myself from a blade blank. It won't be anywhere near as good as that knife your using but it gets the job done. But my go to knife for heavy duty is my 80 year old wilkinson sword type d which is a million times better then the modern j.adams. Wow that fire is really smokey 😅 but well done in a real survival situation you got top marks for that fire in those cold & wet conditions well done 👏

Great knife kev definitely makes the best survival knives I've ever seen & I've used a few of his also. Definitely getting a custom knife made when I've saved up in the new year.

Great review as always. Looks like a very functional tool. The orange handle really stood out in the smoke. Definitely an advantage in some circumstances. So why a specific winter knife? I would guess gloves etc, but interested in the thought process as usually something to learn! 😊. Why not one tool that works year round? (To be fair I think you had that until the rules changed) .

don't forget the pocket bellows, keep your face away from the flames

I've just taken delivery of my own rada from Kev, it stunning 1 off piece of kit I look forward to getting out and using it

10/10 my Man great test I will remember this one when I'm out stay safe out there Alec....👍🫶🌄

Nice

I've been looking at this knife for a while, it's how the MOD knife should look like 👍🏻, that being said I've used the MOD knife in the winter months for years if I'm not taking an axe out with me, but if I have an axe and saw then my knife choice doesn't really change, I love my Garberg, it took me long enough to buy one as I wasn't initially convinced by them.

Hi man! Have you heard from Kevin lately? I was trying to get ahold of him to know how the production is going with the Shirley. I booked one some time ago now and I'm lookin forward to it, I hope the guy is doing well

Thanks man as always educational and entertaining

I've used scandi grinds for years, I love my garberg and kansbal, for heavier tasks I like the jaktkit knv2. The convex on the joker 6.5 is nice to use also all depends what I'm using the knife for. That knife looks a great all rounder.👍🏻

Nice

Looks a belter that mate.😁👍🏻

If your from the states don’t buy nothing from him he’ll blow you off once he has your money and give you nothing but excuses very disappointing said it’ll be 5 to 6 months out it’s been a year on a half and still nothing. Not how you do business. Buyers beware

Another Banger no dealt hope your well my Man...🙏🫶🇬🇧

That's a beauty m8!

They make some nice knives in Spain, the Joker knives are excellent, the Nomad 6.5 is really nice, I haven't been using it too long but my first impressions are good 👍🏻

Well I know were I'm going first when the numbers come in

That is very impressive. You basically created a true ONE TOOL option! Best most thoughtful mods I have seen to. The handle as well - who would have thought? Great Job!

Just seeing your video a couple of years late but still really enjoyed it. I am an absolute kukri nut if it isn't a kukri i won't take it in the bush with me. I live in Canada and we have a lot of heavy bush here. I've got to say i think I've tried out pretty much every type and size of knife around but for me give me a big kukri anytime and I'll be happy. As its two years later seeing that beautiful knife in your hands i absolutely love it and would love to get one as well what company makes this blade and what's it called. I sure enjoyed your video and subscribed immediately hope you have more great video's such as this one thank you sir

Royal is so chill 😎

Awww... love the dog

is this knife available for a private sail?

brilliant idea to use a piece of wood on the left side!

Post you're bergen to Jay Jay's and get them wieded

Nice piece of kit, I’ve had mine for around three years now i think 🤔 and it has given me great service. Good value £ too👍🏻

Kev’s work is excellent

Ya cheated. Lol

What sharpener are you using?

Spot on mate, great method.👍🏻

Great fire/wood management system! Excellent demonstration about the surface of the burnt wood being fire hardened.

Grail piece of kit! I'm gonna rail a bit about the knife laws in the UK, that are somewhat bleeding over to the US and other countries. Kevin crafts amazing tools at Origin. I count myself lucky to have one of the 01 Woodsman tools. Yes, I am calling it a tool. I hear people preaching lightweight for their knives. Thats fine for the military or a lightweight backpacker. The Woodsman is heavy for a reason, like you showed processing the wood. I was a structure firefighter for a big chunk of my adult life and given a choice between a lighter axe or heavier, I'd always take the heavier axe. Let the tool's weight do much of the work for me. The Woodsman is a tool for survival, or working wood for shelter, fire, trap making or as Jim showed us making chess pieces. Would it work for defense? Yeah, of course, its a cutting tool, like a axe/hatchet/tomahawk, machete or its foundation base, a Kukri, modified into a Tracker/WSK, so of course you can defend yourself with it. A lunatic could go on the offense with it, as could they with a kitchen knife, a bat, piece of pipe, rebar, 2x4, tree branch, garden hoe, pitch fork or fertilizer... people should think before stifling the crativity of brilliant tool makers and their customers. 99.99999% of the crazy people that go on killing sprees couldn't spend the money that a quality knife would cost. Reason, and common sense need to take control of our political platforms again, it's gotten out of hand. Rant over.

I stripped off the varnish, stained and linseed oiled the handle. Just like this video, I was at a friend's place and chopped down small trees and delimbed some bigger trees with this shovel. A great tool to keep in the car. Great video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Over 60 years UKS Rocky mountains, desert SW, and Virginia woodland... and central Texas... this is the best I've seen, and the least expensive. Carry on! PS I am prejudiced favorably by your accent!

Hey Alec! I’ve been enjoying my Woodsman quite a bit the past few days and I’ve been carrying it. A lot. I thought I would like the method of under the armpit on a holster rig but I’m not feelin it. I’m sure I may feel different after some further fine tuning. Have you tried carrying your Woodsmen in the Cumberband or Baldrics carry yet and if so can you make a video on it please? Thanks man!

I've stropped knives and other tools on my hand for 50 years and have yet to cut myself ... would I recommend it - probably not, but for me it has just become second nature

Great tips m8!

👍👍👍

Just curious here. It looked like your angles while using the ceramic rod to touch up the knife edge were very different. Do you wear a leather belt out in the BUSH? Might be better choice. I'd be afraid of cutting myself. Just me.

Brilliant 👍

Yo dude that’s a beautiful knife you got there, do you know where I can buy one like that, like an affiliate link or something? Thanks mate.

Great demo Alex. I'm liking the straight version but looking forward to seeing the revised woodsman. Love the use of the frying pan to catch the feathers. Do you miss the saw in that STV?

💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

Very good presentation thank you for sharing

I have never really been too convinced by the tracker design. I have to say you are starting to change my mind. My cabins always have a ceiling too. Is that a kupilka🇫🇮 ferro rod you got there?
