Cut thru a hanging/dangling "string"? You gotta be kidding me??? Excellent review btw! The V44X is definitely going to be my next WTG Blade. I just hope they make enough of them so that I don't miss out lol! I have a feeling that the demand of this knife, will be EPIC!!! So "please" WTG... Make A LOT OF THEM!!!
Great review man! The original Collins No. 18 has a history with most services. The 2nd Raider Batt ordered them at the request of Mr. Carlson. He had extensive Jungle warfare experience due to his time with China. It was originally kind of a machete…. Only 1/8” thick or so, but had a sharpened swedge.(except the 1st Raider knife) These were also pilfered from the survival kits under the seats of airplanes and carried on belts. Some called the V44s bailout knives, Gung Ho Knives, And Raider Bowies. The V44 was actually a machete made by Case…. But that name has be given to the “V44” knives mistakenly… but that’s what everyone knows them as. I didn’t learn that until later. The US gov ordered these from many manufacturers… many were also made in Australia, one version was from the Chindits. The originals are beautiful,.. I love the ones that were modified and had things carved in them. Anyway, great video! Enjoy your wig splitter! I don’t think many of these will pop back up on the secondary market… hopefully…. Maybe the $400.00 eBay ones…..🤦🏼♂️
@@thelasthuntsmanoutdoors I just tried to have a big knife made that I wanted! I was very picky with the details... hopefully everyone that buys one will be be satisfied with what they spent their hard earned money on. SF brother
So some videos, you just have to see more than once! Waiting on mine from DLT (be here Wednesday!) so I'm pretty much binge watching all the V44X videos I can find, then, watching the ones I've already seen "again" lol... And your video here is also pretty good too!!! CAN'T WAIT till I get that BADASS BLADE in my hands!!!
you oughta get you one of Jacob's Beachin Tactical Baldrics to carry that of you like shoulder carry. I carry my Esee Junglas and Ontario SP53 on his lite baldrics. He produces a fine product
Jacob’s Beachin Tactical stuff is awesome, I have his speed sling for my scout rifle. I think I’m gonna have a custom leather sheath/baldric combo made for this.
@@lonknight3197 I will try my best. Just knowing how quick WTG stuff sells I would have a tab open on their page and be ready because these will sell quick
@@thelasthuntsmanoutdoors linemans pliers , bolt cutters ,prybars , folding saws , camp axes , multi tools and military shovels are also interests of mine . Can you please cover items you have or use . Thank you .
@@darinmullins4770 I have in some other videos but I should elaborate. Folding say the silky Gomboy Multi tool the Leatherman rebar Military shovel the cold steel spetznaz shovel Camp axe the hard core hammers survivalist or hults bruk

“That ain’t a knife……. THIS IS A KNIFE”
It sure is
Link?
I posted a link the Work Tuff Gear in the description. This knife isn’t out yet, December
@@thelasthuntsmanoutdoors
Have they said yet what the price will be?
@@lonknight3197 idk for sure to be honest, they didn’t tell me. That said judging from with WTG knives in a similar size I’d expect around $250 or so
Thanks for answering me. When they start selling in Dec. Could you post a link or just tell the price. Thanks again
