Nice and practical review. I wouldn't be surprised if Schrade takes your advice. In recent years they've really been good about listening to their customers and refining their knives due to reactions.
Badass multi-purpose blade. 64MN is the steel they make swords out of. Just clean sap and shit off and sharpen from time to time and it will last a loooong time. Cool video man thanks for actually testing it real world.. exactly what I wanted to see.
I don't get the metal protruding from the scales either. I don't do that many knives with riveted scales, I usually make tangs, but I find it way easier to make your scales just a bit bigger and refine and finish the shape with them in place on the knife via a bolt, sanding the metal as well. Nice and flush.
Sister to the Schf13? I ground the tang flush with the scales and onto the spine too. Improved the comfort and could strike a ferro. BTW - your test methods are the best IMO.
i got the same knife last week and i had the exact same opinion of it but it's not the coating that stops the rod, i took spine coating off and it still won't strike the rod so i don't know what's going on there
Half the videos it strikes and half it doesn’t. I could care less though.. the knife and sheath for $30 is plenty. Cool addition even if lower quality.
Should make a pretty solid companion knife to maybe a Jessica-X or a Froe - take care of the small stuff and leave the heavy lifting to the big boys (or girl).
I like the look of this knife. Not real keen on the belt loop though.That skinny handle would require gloves just to fight off the hand fatigue I would get from gripping it..Cheers Tac..
the other i got is the schf56L and it's not bad, bevel was perfect but they coating came off real bad after the first log i split but if you get one is love to hear your view and i think you'll like the handle on this better
Know what you mean about the Handles. Got the same issue on the Schrade Fixed Blade that came in the Two Pack. But it has thick TPR scales. Yeah, really inexpensive, but something tells me that it's the same Quality as the more Expensive ones that made out of the same 8Cr as that one. So why pay Twice as Much for a Similar Blade with minor design changes? But it's cheap enough for me to put it on the Belt Sander to get it feeling Right in my Hands. Thanks Tac.
good review tac, not to impressed with this blade seems like it was hurriedly made in the workshop, I won't be adding this one to my collection, thanks for sharing good to see back on the channel 👍🇺🇸
Thank you for the video! I do believe I'll buy one! If you can get it for $20+ it is a steal! Here's maybe a tip you can use: WD40 cleans pine pitch, tar, grease, some glues, paint and a mess of other stuff. Plus! It is a fair penetrating oil. (PB Blaster is better for penetrating oil). Thanks again.
man a bic should be in everyone's pocket or whatever. I have told people that forever. " well I don't smoke.". after they needed one to burn a tic.....lol! yeah man!
when you were trying to get that shaving pile lit with the fero rod, did you feel that the knife sitting there on the stump was judging you? great review! looks like a decent knife to have around.
Hey Tac I know it's a bit more on the expensive side but could you do a review of the benchmade bushcrafter? It's very tough and stays sharp (soldiers prefer this knife for cutting plastic explosives. Thanks and keep up the great work
Hey what's up buddy cool video and was going to say I make aftermarket scales and and in the process of making a set for this knife and was wondering if you would be interested in a set to review?
Been missin your vids all the time man! Just been binge watching the old ones!
Always good to hear from you man. I hope everything's ok over there with you.
FINALLY a vid from my man Tac, great to see you abusing some steel again!
Nice and practical review. I wouldn't be surprised if Schrade takes your advice. In recent years they've really been good about listening to their customers and refining their knives due to reactions.
Very awesome blade!!!! Love to tote this around! Thanks for the contests!!!
Like Schrade. Pretty tough budget knives. I use them in Landscaping.
hey tactical i been watching your videos for a while now pretty cool never know what your going to do keep up the great videos
Badass multi-purpose blade. 64MN is the steel they make swords out of. Just clean sap and shit off and sharpen from time to time and it will last a loooong time. Cool video man thanks for actually testing it real world.. exactly what I wanted to see.
Good review ! Nothing beats a Bic for lighting a fire , you get like 4,000 lights from one.
Thanks Tac. Great to see you
Nice to see the reversible sheath from Schrade. Nice blade.
Great review Tac. That's a pretty cool looking Schrade. I like the blade profile and the handle looks grippy.
5 3/4 out of 10, I'd still like to have it ! Great Video.
A Tac review?!! Hallelujah! I missed my man.
I don't get the metal protruding from the scales either. I don't do that many knives with riveted scales, I usually make tangs, but I find it way easier to make your scales just a bit bigger and refine and finish the shape with them in place on the knife via a bolt, sanding the metal as well.

I have a few but would love this one. They are great knives.
Sister to the Schf13? I ground the tang flush with the scales and onto the spine too. Improved the comfort and could strike a ferro. BTW - your test methods are the best IMO.
That's a nice looking blade Tac!
i got the same knife last week and i had the exact same opinion of it but it's not the coating that stops the rod, i took spine coating off and it still won't strike the rod so i don't know what's going on there
Stephen Scholefield I had to grind mine to square off the spine to strike a ferro rod
I agree. Bring the scales even with the steel.
Great video. I really like the look of this knife.
Great knife. Love the size and weight, feral rod is always nice to have. It's holding well too! Thank you for sharing another awesome video Schrade!
Half the videos it strikes and half it doesn’t. I could care less though.. the knife and sheath for $30 is plenty. Cool addition even if lower quality.
It looks like a great EDC knife~
Hey Tac I'd wrap up the handle with something so you don't experience as much shock.
Great knife, great review...and great video!
Sharp looking knife never have won one would love to have this one
I really want this knife, it's good that has a ferro rod included
The 65MN is a Chinese version of 1060 mid carbon steel.
Nice knife, I like the sheath too. it's not the coating. It's the back of the knife.
Great little knife! Especially for the money!
like your comment about the tang protruding from the G-10 scales, hadn't considered that. overall it looks like a good knife!
Excellent testing
Cool little Knife love threw 65mn steel. It's some tough ass stuff
Hey lov your videos wish you make more.
Where have you been
Another awesome looking knife keep them coming
I do like that nice little Schf 59 and the video is interesting . . I'd sure like to try it out .
Should make a pretty solid companion knife to maybe a Jessica-X or a Froe - take care of the small stuff and leave the heavy lifting to the big boys (or girl).
I like the look of this knife. Not real keen on the belt loop though.That skinny handle would require gloves just to fight off the hand fatigue I would get from gripping it..Cheers Tac..
