Hey Brother, I love the Brown knives, but I think the "Tops" knives are too much for too little. My family pioneered in TN. My great-grandfather was the first white man born in TN. William Russell-Bean. His mother, my great grandmother was Lydia Russell-Bean, was taken captive by the Cherokees. We founded Bean Town and Bean Tavern. Enjoy camping and hunting like you guys. Thanks for defending 2A. I got a Spanish version, Jeo-Tec too beautiful to use. This is 1/2 that knifes price. This seeems to be a beater ecd knife.
Dude thank you so much for sharing your family history! I absolutely loved reading all of that! I’m hoping to start a “pioneer” knife video soon!
This knife does a great job of your typical EDC stuff and you can make it razor sharp bc it’s a hollow grind! I agree that the tops stuff is crazy priced, you can buy 6 good knives for the price of one! Thank you so much for commenting and watching and sharing your history! I love my Tennessee and I hope to see more of you on the channel and in other videos!
Good stuff I made one out of spring steel even larger than the original
That’s awesome I would love to see that!
Thanks for the detailed review!
@@harrybowmaster241 you are welcome
Just found you on here brother. I’ve watched a number of your videos. I appreciate what your doing by spreading the Word. Fixin to check into this knife. Semper Fi!
Hey, thank you my friend and SF my brother I will be making more videos this coming fall and winter. Looking forward to getting back to it.

New subscriber! I just purchased this from Weyland's online store. Looking forward to trying it out.
I got mine and love it so far wanted a original tom brown but after getting this i think it is just as good if not better
I sincerely enjoy mine and the customer service is really great! I’m glad there is an economical option! I always sweat when I have to leave a two or $300 knife laying around the campsite! This one I don’t feel bad, and I’m not scared to use it! Thanks for watching in commenting and welcome to the channel!
Good review. I’d like to get one in the future for some more tracker fun. I’ve been collecting trackers over the years. It as much as some I’ve seen, but love this knife design. The Weyland looks like a solid knife.
For the prices knives are going for, this one is certainly worth it just in the fact it gives you a different experience with a knife all together!
Also thanks for watching and commenting! If you haven’t already, subscribe! Trying to grow this puppy good so I can start giving away sone knives! Thanks brother!
The saw is also good for breaking wire, but that saw may need to be honed up a bit more for easier notching
I absolutely love my Weyland Tracker. Super versatile, I can throw it, chop with it, skin deer, baton, the list goes on. I highly recommend the Weyland Tracker, especially if you can’t afford the Utah Knife Works Tracker, or Russon Tracker, I’d definitely go with a Weyland. Don’t buy the Tops Tracker. Tom Brown Jr is a criminal and a thief.
Semper Fi brother! Glad you are loving the knife! Good to see you on the channel again!!
Just found your channel. Killer blade&killer vid brother!!
Thank you my friend and welcome! We have a nice library and will be adding more contact this fall :)
This is a great video, I own 2 Tom Brown trackers , the SXB and the regular size tracker like the one you have. Both great knives and if Weyland is watching they’d be wise to fix the saw on their tracker to be as efficient or better than the one on the Tom Brown.
Man videos like yours is the reason smart companies improve their products, and sorry ones don’t last because they didn’t take note’s. Once again thank you for sharing a great video.
Thank you, my brother and God bless
It's not a saw... The serrations are meant for notching.
I got my D2 tracker pn E-bay fo $1 & I love it!
Just ordered this today. Thanks for the video🤙🇺🇸🦅
You are welcome my brother!!! Enjoy!! Welcome to the channel!!
How do you like it? How's the edge? I'm thinking of pulling the trigger too.
@@samaelmartinus3273 blade is amazing great value. Favorite knife I own hands down. The gut hook is sharp as fuck. Sharpened the main blade cause I like my shit sharp. But overall a great outdoors knife. Don’t go anywhere without it.
@@samaelmartinus3273 the blade definitely needs to be sharpened but other than that. You will love it.
Great review, buddy!
Thank you my friend! Glad you enjoyed!!
I got one because of this video. It is a great knife.
Hey brother!!!! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! I hope you have lots of fun with your new knife! I certainly am!
I like the more pronounced quarter round (gut hook) on the Weyland. I had nothing but good experiences with their settlers tools, so I may have to give this one a day in court.
The big thing is that it’s actually sharpened! A lot of my budget ones fail here miserably! Thanks for watching and commenting! I’ve been eyeing their settlers tools too!
@@gustifer0311 I will say that one thing I think the settlers tool could use his to be opened up on the back side, opposite The Cutting Edge of the scotch eye. And or keep some beeswax handy to keep things slippery.
@@WhiteDwarfVR4 great advice! Thank you!
Put er through er paces brother!🤘😎
got to my man! glad youre staying tuned! miss you brother
Great video
Great video enjoyed 👍 gotta get one 🗡️ thanks
Hey my brother, I’m glad that you enjoyed the video. I enjoy the fact that you took the time to watch it and comment on it. Thank you for your support.
The dog is also chilling
Hey brother thanks for watching and commenting! He’s a great boy and goes with me everywhere!
How has it held up over time? Just got mine and a sponsorship from weyland for my bushcraft ministry camp so I’m stoked.
I handle a knife differently than many inexperienced individuals, so it’s held up well. I think the biggest concern you will have giving it to students of your camp and it being issued repeatedly is … How it is sharpened. An inexperienced person can damage the gut hook quite easily so you may want to dedicate one person to sharpening (at least of that portion) of the blade(s)
I Love that GS. Best dogs!
They are incredible! Couldn’t live without mine now
Just got a Tom Brown but started with the Weyland…. The Tom brown is a beast of a tool. The wetland is probably better if you are using one a lot.
I don’t know. Obviously if you can afford the TB definitely get that one. However the Weyland will def do. I hate buying shit that’s made in China but if I stopped buying shit made in China half the shit I own would need to get thrown out.
Im thinking about getting the knife
Nice!....hey Gus, have you checked out the BIG CAT ROARS jaguar tracker!...another great deal for budget minded buyers looking to buy a decent tracker
Hey Doug! I have indeed seen that one! I haven’t had a chance to touch and feel, but from the reviews I’m watching I’d say it’s pretty high up there in the budget quality tracker!!
Do you know anyone who makes a kydex sheath for this?
New sub! Good video n review!
Thank you my brother! Honored to have you a part of the channel! Welcome and we hope to see more of you!
What kind of critter ran through your video at 12:35? It was fast!!!
the saw is for notching wood for trap triggers and other stuff like that well if i had this its what i would use it for it still wouldn't make nice 7 notches i still think the saw on these knives is to wide for that but i think when tom brown put his thoughts on the design of this knife i think its what it was intended for well thats my 2 cents about it being a woods man my self still as being a woods man my self i still don't like this blade profile many do great video have you seen the warvio models and bushmaster trackers the bushmaster one is the same company who made the first russe tom brown tracker knives they were made under the untied cutlery brand in 1980 you should check those bushmaster ones out i haven't seen any reviews on them yet there pretty affordable and made in America as well with a price tag of 89 msr and there made from 1095 steel like the tops version great video sir iv been eye balling these wayland and bushmaster version as well great video im a poor boy i wish i could afford one of these knives its out of my budget even the wayland
Tom brown tracker is not designed for a saw,it's just to notch for traps
That is correct my friend and works really well in a pinch!
What was the bowie knife you were playing with just before you started strumming the banjo?
Hey Friend! That is the condor Plan A! I have a few different reviews on it ! Here is a link to 2 of them:

@@gustifer0311 Thanks!
Yeah....I don't think so. I'm all for the TOPS version.
For over 200 I’ll pass. This one works just fine.
I like the tops one but it's a stolen design.
Down in front! 😂 Semper Fi, Semper Woof!
😃😃😃 glad you liked the reference! Semper fi my brother!
Whats the bowie in the Intro? The one you featherstick with
That’s the Condor Plan A Bowie! There are a couple of reviews on it on my channel! Thanks for watching my friend!!!
Interesting that this tracker unlike all others have another hollow grind on the chopping part of the blade. I'd be weary.
michal thanks for watching and commenting! At first i was surprised and thought the same thing. But i can honestly say i am having a pleasant experience with the knife. Once sharpened, it bites like a crocodile. The good thing about hollow blades is that they are extremely easy to sharpen. While its hard for any knife to stand up to the TOPS, this is a much closer comparison to some of the similar knives that are our there for way less money! Ultimately, us woodsmen must decide and know how to use and pick our tools for the best situation!
Whats your favorite tracker knife?
@@gustifer0311 Thx for the answer! Well I’ve only had a chance to try out my Boker mini and fullsize trackers (Dave Wenger design) and I have to say they are absolutely awesome!
@@BaritoneMike I have a lot of fun with them and they really are unique and look cool. I’ve done bad reviews on knives as well and I try to be as thorough as I can so people know what they are getting.
Great video. It's a pity I cannot find this knife here in Italy, I would have loved to be able to try it.
Hey brother thank you for watching and commenting! I put an Amazon link below, will they not ship to Italy?
@@gustifer0311 Dunno, they say it's currently unavailable. Anyway keep up with the good work, your channel it's really good 👍
@@serindas hey brother thank you so much that means a lot to me!!! I bet you have sone beautiful scenery over there in Italy! (And women) !
I reached out to Weyland and asked for a link to get you access to it. I’ll follow up as soon as they get back to me!
@@gustifer0311 Thanks bro, I really appreciate it.
Awesome video.Are you around Etawoh area? I live in Charleston Tn.
I try and get to Etowah as often as I can. I like to stay up at Indian Boundary and Citico Creek. That’s my home away from home. In this video I am near Mobray Mountain .

Mine is supposed to be here by Tuesday , I can say you've already passed the amount of abuse i would normally put on any knife so, i should be in good shape with mine .
Awesome!
Did you receive it brother? What do you think?
@@gustifer0311 yes , it's very nice . i took a #320 diamond sharpener to it for a minute for the paper cutting edge better for feather sticks . the sheath is a bit soft but, i can live with it. For that price it's a Really good deal.
@@killjoy8914 didn’t show this in the video, but turn the knife upside down and push the sawblades down your feather stick to create several different curls. Try that out and tell me what you think about it.
Good video brother but I need you or someone to help me understand that saw blade on the back. Surely it has a purpose😊 other than sawing bc I can’t get it to saw even a small limb. Maybe the company can help answer it.
It’s not really a saw. It’s better for creating feathers or making small notches. I have a small short in my video collection that shows proper use of the “saw” .
@@gustifer0311 thanks!
It looks kind of like a knife version of the swords of Kratos from God of War 😏👍
the Tracker knife is super similar to the Greek Kopis! as is the Kukri! lol
Kratos definitely uses 2 tracker knives that are enlarged, his are not even close to a kopis
I don't like to sharpen my knives every day. 65mn is a soft steel.
Poshland is just the same hahaha 😊
Indeed sir
My brother what is the thickness on the Weyland?
@mehmetkupeli2073. Hi Don't know if you found out yet so I'll tell you it's 3/16 of an inch thick.All the best to you.
I bought a budget Tracker off Amazon and broke it the first test I gave it. It was like $40 so it didnt really hurt my pockets, I sort of expected it to break however, i was not expecting it to break on the very first baton 😂 the thing chipped immediately. I was shook. Ive had gas station specials that were more heavy duty. The thing about tracker knives is at a glance they look crazy and tough, the notch serrations give it what I call Rambo knife syndrome. Anytime someone sees a knife with spine serrations they think theyre special forces now and look tough. The reality is if its not a Tops or Weyland, Tracker its probably gonna be trash. Warivo, GCS, Susa, poshland, any knife maker that advertises their knife as an art piece and not an actual tool is a red flag. If they push Damascus steel, another red flag. When cheap knives are advertised as Damascus, it really means they just threw together a bunch of cheap metals they found around the shop. So thats also a red flag for me. And this should go without saying but here i am saying it.. almost everything made in China is pretty much trash. Im not saying everything, but damn near enough for me to never trust something from china unless i get the metal tested and verified. They lie about their materials all the time. And they use trick advertising, sponsors that dont know shit about steel to promote their product. China, Lithuania, India, fucking scam centers of the world.
Lmao. You tell me brother. You outta watch my video on this Pakistani Bowie I bought. I lied to myself for months convincing myself it would be OK to buy it and when I did oh did I receive the thrashing are so deserve for trusting Pakistani steel and marketing! More like Suck-istan
@@gustifer0311 exactly! I think we all have those same mall-ninja urges to get the cool looking knife. At least I know I do, especially when I'm browsing Amazon and I'm like 6 pages in on my original search and see something cool looking from a company I've never heard of. Only to break the knife as fast as I get it in my hands lol
@@11_EVERYTHING_OEFx2 lmao Pakistan and China have ruined American Flea Markets. Used to love going as a kid now it’s all junk.
Good comment CMB. Could not agree more brother.
@@DavidWilson-uf5mv hey thanks brother!
Gonna have too buy one !!🇺🇸🇺🇸🪓🔪👍👍
What sharpener is that?
It’s this one!
amzn.to/3XKIL8f
@@gustifer0311 sweet, thanks
I actually find that 65mn steel holds and retain edge better than 1065.
An interesting observation! I think the closest think I have to 1065 is my BPS which is 1066, but I do think I have some Tomahawks that are 1065…
@@gustifer0311 it has a higher hardness 58 rockwell.
I could tie a butter knife to a stick and get the same results.😮
Why would you need to tie it to the stick?
@@gustifer0311 good question? It just performed like shit...
Why you doin all those test's on rocks🤔
The tops (Tom brown) is never 3 pounds 3:02
You are correct it is 2
I hate how they stubbied the points bevel. Smh
Dont see much piercing with that.
Not to mention its 90$ now ...59 yeah i would of
If you look into the knifes spec sheet you'll find its origin is China.
The company might be in the US. The knife however, is made in China .
At the price it looks good
Hey Gus !! I bought a Weyland !! Gonna give it a shot !!🇺🇸🇺🇸🪓🔪👍👍
That’s aweesome my friend! I think you will love the bang for your buck! I think I’m gonna do a follow up long term review soon :)
Sweet!! Dam good idea!
Hey Brother, thanks for the review. I've not taken the tracker plunge, but wanted to. So looking at reviews, I saw your avatar. Which automatically made me want to watch yours. We are truly brothers, Semper Fi! So being a Marine, I will take your words as truth. And by your drawl, I can expect we aren't too far apart on the redneck map. Ordering me one. Sub'd
Hey thank you and Semper Fidelis my brother! Tennessee here!
Out of all the budget options out there this is my favorite and I’ve gone through plenty! I enjoy knives reviews for all my guys and welcome to the channel my brother!
@@gustifer0311 yup, I could tell we were close. I'm one state over, in Arkansas.
