Everytime you say "extreme ratio" my heart dies a bit.
I have died one thousand times. Seriously, not everybody can pronounce all languages. Thank you for the very informative video.
Extrema ratio in latin means "last resort" in english
I thought it meant “ Expensive “.
extrema ratio is "last solution" or "last chance" or something like "top of force escalation"
I have two extrema ratio and they're beasts in every possible way, the only issue for me is that they can't get a clean sharpness, they cut well but not as good as other brands, but they're purpose is not peeling tomatoes, they're made for tough use
It's more like "Moskin" and "Extrema Ratio" is latin (not "extreme")
Sorry for being annoying
GRAZIE, almeno tu nell'universo
Tommaso il Parodiatore quanti italiani qua
....e dijelo va!?!
@@mattepower4468 pensavo di essere l'unico
W la manifattura italiana!! Nun ce sta dietro nessuno 🇮🇹🇮🇹
Recently bought an Extrema Ratio Col Moschin compact, this is a very wellmade sharp knife with traplock type carry. If you like military knives this is a comfortable quality knife and well worth adding to your collection
It's "Col Mos-KEEN"
Thank God......back to the real stuff. Welcome home Jeff.....
Absolutely tremendous knives, these are blades for life, whether your killing or camping, its a true friend-
Never heard of this company till now, thanks for introducing me. That is a sick ass knife.
Amazing knife review,Jeff!!!!
Can you do the the Schrade Uncle Henry? in particular the 171UH? Its at my local shop and i was wondering what you would think about it.
Hey Jeff! Hope you are well. That is a sweet knife! Thanks for the review :)
Can you do a video on "budget" fixed blades? I love fixed blades but a lot are very expensive
Nice video. Also the bolt is designed to be the pivotal point to quickly change the handling (straight or reverse).
Have you had any experience with the CRKT Ultima?
The one you have is the civilian version. The military version is double edged out of factory. The official website says the they don't sell double edged knives to the civilian market due to legal reasons, but I have seen people have double edged ER knives. I'm not sure if they have different souce or just sharpened the swedge themselves.
I think they sharpened it themselves
Jeff, are there any knives that utilize 2 different grinds on one blade? ie. Scandi grind on front half of blade and chisel grind on back half???
2 different grinds seems like ot would cut really really bad
This knife get his name from the principal utilizers the members of the Italian Army 9^ Rgt Paratroopers the Italian principal S.O.F ; Col Moschin is a hill in north east Italy, during WW 1 the Italian Arditi, first assault troops wins against Austrian troops
Which 3 Extrema Ratio would u recommend for survival I am looking for 1 large 1 medium and 1 small? Also Which 3 Extrema Ratio would u recommend for combat/survival/edc Thanks if I was rich I would just buy them all! :)
Venom or fulcrum s (survival) col moschin (combat) bmf1a2 (edc)
Could you use it as a bushcraft knife, or survival knife? It seems versatile enough, given the serrations.
Pasquale Franze why would you want serrations on a Bushcraft knife?
Cool knife.
Upload a video about ur setup plz I want to see how ur camera sits like that cause I have a TH-cam channel plz plz. If u do thank u so much. P.S I love all ur videos and I like so many
Why don't you review the brs barebones or replicant?
Nice looking blade. What's the grip on the handle like? They look odd.
grips feels suprisingly nice. it's a tough kind of rubber, pretty grippy without being sticky.
I'd definitely buy it as a EDC for Selfdefense
Very good review. Like you sed: it is a knife for collectors not for users. Unless you are in some special force FOR REAL.That is probably why it is also so expencive I like knifes and I bought one from extrema ratio too: Landing Force. Of course is a so specific knife that I'll keep it on the closet.
that is one nice blade im saving up to buy one.
I like that one.
Got mine 15 or more yrs ago. Mine came with a drop leg style sheath
i understand his passion for knives ,i have the same addiction for chef knives ..and im not even a chef ,but i want to be :)
ExtremA, not ExtremE.
tHANK YOU, Juho.
i have this exactly version and the vemon, when i took the coating off both of them the molchin have bubbles on their steel its very disappointed, each of them cost me $300 each.
Why would you take off the coating?
I'm in love with that knife! The price......not so much. : )
Sweet blade
Ogni volta che dice cal moscin vengono i brividi
Great fighter the "Colonel Moschin" fixed blade. You have the civil version the military version comes double edged from
the factory. All Extrema Ratio blades, folders and fixed are great reliable tools.
Its not colonel, col in italian means peak
nice Jeff :-)
col means peak in italian, btw cool knife
get "J.P. Peltonen Sissipuukko" next :D it's finnish military knife
You should check out Kizlyar knives, their designs looks very similar to these. They are pretty cheap and uses D2 and aus 8 steel.
Btw nice rewiew!
review on the way :) 1st Italy then Russia...
+cutlerylover now that is sick more sick than a person gets on Halloween after eating an entire bag of candy
Is kol moskin, ok?
Why would a longer run of serrations be more beneficial? I actually prefer shorter runs of serrations, even shorter than on this knife if possible. It’s mainly for cutting rope or fabrics which you don’t need a lot of run to do so. I also wouldn’t compare the n690 other knife manufactures to the n690 on extrema ratio knives. I have other n690 knives and they dull soo fast, however my extrema knives still have yet to dull and I’ve used them for years
I am looking for a new knife myself, I'm a hobby man myself so do you guys have any suggestions?
What is your hobby? What do you intend to use the knife for? Any law restrictions? What is your budget? I'll help you find yourself a new blade!
Well hobby wise I do alot of just random tasks when ever I think of a project so to speak, but I would probably use the knife for assorted jobs whether it be cutting, slicing, or chopping I couldn't tell you, mostly cause I'm unsure myself but there id one thing I am mostly sure of and that would be the budget, being that less than $40 would be preferable if that's not too much to ask. Anyways thank you for your help.
kershaw skyline is a nice knife and i just saw it on amazon for $38. It has great looks, easy to carry, not too small or too big, very comfortable in hand. I would consider it a great knife for general cutting tasks. check it out, if it dosent appeal to you let me know i can throw out some other suggestions. one knife I always suggest is the cold steel code 4, but its a little over your price range. But dude I'm telling you its one hell of an awesome knife.
Thanks that's really helpful I'll take a look at it.
Cold steel GI Tanto awesome knife for the money, extremely durable knife.
This has cool in spades !
"Col Moschin" in italian sounds like "call-moo-skin" Special corp named that way after winning the battle of the "Moschin" hill against the Austriac Empire army in only one day during the world war one. BTW Extrema Ratio is pure latin language, same meaning as you guess but sounding like...I can't find a good example for you XD ;)
It is "call-mo-skín"
oh shit that blade kinda looks like this M16-14SF I just got
i get triggered so hard when he says "extreme" instead of extrema
Dear Chris: No one I know gets triggered. Only Brits get triggered.
$400+ :(
Looks great, and made of N690, if I could afford it, I'd get one for sure.
In europe they cost around €350, now you americans know how we feel when we want to buy something from an american brand😂
What is a really really good survival knife?
depends on what kind of situation you're trying to survive
@@keaponlaffin6737 let's say if your team got ambushed and it's just you and your knife. Not only that theres alot of enemies, what do you think would be a good knife for that situation
I am waiting for Captain Corelli's stabbing device... LOL!
Yes, you guessed right, the knife is double edged in the operative equipment. This is the civilian market version, if you can call "civilian" a pure combat oriented design with a fixed blade.
Beautiful knife, although the price would be justified if it was CPM 4v or M390. N690co is NOT that expensive for what it is
Beauty
I love your videos man! Please make someone happy and reply ! Have a nice day everyone!
thanks
Does it bug anyone else that he keeps calling it "extreme ratio"?
no, it's an accurate translation into english lol
Cool
This is the third unboxing of this knife I watched on TH-cam by american reviewers. I appreciate your thoughts about the product but... why not take a couple of minutes to check on Google the meaning and pronounce of it. "Extrema Ratio" is Latin and means "last resort", and it is not pronounced as you would in the American English language. Same for the italian "Col Moschin" (that is a toponim, from which the Italian regiment took the name for their exceptional performance on that place during the First World War). "Moschin", particularly, is pronounced as, more or less, "Moskin". How would you pronounce the motto of the United State Special Forces (that's also Latin)? Just curious.
I'm sure the sheath is so secured because of parachute jumps.
Is it just me or is the video quality really poor? Maybe the lighting is low and the camera is trying to compensate?
wikipedia: "9th Parachute Assault Regiment Col Moschin"
I think this is not double edged because in Italy us civilians can't have double edged knives!
pretty cool lookin. that sheath should be the standard for all fixed blade sheaths. too often the sheath is thrown in as an afterthought and is a piece of junk
Yeah, I actually like the sheath more than the knife itself. I´ve used many combat knives, and always the sheath was the sticking point for me. I´ve actually had to buy or have made separate sheaths for some of my knives, because what they came with was such garbage. I even bought a Nieto in the civilian market, and later found out that the military issue has a decent frog; but the one I bought, the sheath, while not absolute garbage, was meh, at best.
Col Moschin refers to the Moschin Pass not someone named Colonel Moschin.
First blade shape that looks useful from this company..Usually they just make fat pry bar knives
I bought the wrong one, I got the Extrema Ratio Col. Martian.
This knife switched sides 15 times during the filming of this video.
Nice knife. 400 is a little steep for me.
Mōs-keen
Italian weapons? Damn, I was expecting a breadstick...
I like the sheath more than the knife lol
Hé, we make knives in Europe too, you know! :-)
There is only one question - price of 370 euro.
$492.28c Australian Dollars
yar no thank you
what do you pay for a benchmade down there? extrema ratio are some of the very best knives you can buy.
Dexter Charles by what judgement? Rubber over mould handle on n690? The money isn't in materials for sure.. I would rather get a custom/ semi custom from a local maker for sure.
Gummy Bear that's like 600 usd holy shit
Darryn Ouk I think one could argue that a $30 gerber double edged dagger is a "better" fighting knife, these aren't quite so specialised.
now if you said something like Mission or Benchmade, I'd agree, but Gerber quality wise isn't worth mentioning. All of the Gerbers, be it my S30v Autos or fixed knives have in one way or another failed
Yeah, I think col moschin is a mountain in Italy. But don't quote me on that to much.🤪
big tanto turnoff for me =/
At least it doesn't have that weird second tip that cold steel style ones have.
Yet us army issues multi-tools
Dirty Bay Adventures marines get issued kabars and navy get Ontario Mk 3
75
I just call it "Col. Munchkin'.
Jeff I have been asking for a gun collection update for a while a response to let me know your thoughts on this would be nice
Col Moshin (pron. Kol Mos-keen)
i bet jeff got a chubby everytime they did show and tell in school
that recess looks uncomfortable, i wish it didn't have that
3 points due to “jump ready”.
The word "Col" in mountain climbing circles means "Peak".

This is a stabbing knife. Can't use it on wood or anything other than combat. I have the KH, doberman and fulcrum. The n690 steel is a problem it's cheap stuff that chips very easily especially in large blades. That's why they thicken their edges like crazy it's like cutting using a log. I dont recommend this knife maker for the steel they use
🇮🇹
lol

'col moschin' is like 'koll moskeen'. and its the name of a mountain or something, not related to the mil. rank ;)
there was an article on that knife in german messer magazin a few years ago.
i totally dislike all extrema ratio designs😂
You pronounced it very badly. It’s “COL MOSKIN” an Italian airborne special force
I love Americans. I sincerely do. But y'all never bother even TRYING to pronounce anything remotely foreign.
I mean, he tried at least, some people really dont bother
Moschin pronunciation is MOSKEEN. Please
Folgore!
Hai sbagliato reggimento😂
No man. Col Moschin is “Hill Moschin” is the name of a mountain in First World War in Italy.
The Arditi company fight extremely hard against Austrians only with hand grenade and knife. It’s story.
Into the Austrians army the name Arditi create panic, ‘cause who fight without fear only with the knife finished hand grenades. Now Col Moschin is the name of Italian special forces Incursori. This knife was created for them who descend from the Arditi of 1918
Funny that they use Austrian steel for this knife. Doesn't fit the marketing well, lol.
First :D
Extrema ratio is latin !!!
Yea that knife would break probably in the first day of survival. Ka-Bar USMC is much better knife.
kabar makes a nice knife but its not the best out there for survival, neither is this...
The Ka-Bar is meant to be a a good overall knife. Meant to be ok at everything a soilder would need but not great at one thing. Its good for Survival and surprisingly better than i thought for bushcraft but still not great but it wont ever compare to Esee or Tops knives.
Ka bar fanboy over here
man they are expensive I'll take an 80 dollar K-bar any day
