@@johndickens7071 I truly appreciate that John and I feel honored to be mentioned along side of those guys as I have spent time in the field with all of them and respect them all for their knowledge, skills and contributions to the community here. Thank you again for your support sir!
Congratulations, Matt! I promised myself to stop buying bushcraft knives..lol..BUT...this design of yours is beyond amazing and I'm definitely buying one! I love the blade shape, the dual grind and the thickness of it! Its also amazing how you can do pretty much everything with it from camp cooking, to dressing game...to bushcraft! Wow! 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
Thank you so much Rusty! I really appreciate your kind words and support! If you do get one, I truly hope you will be as pleased with yours as I am mine! Please let me know your thoughts once you get a hold of it. Take care!
Congratulations. Gorgeous blade, Matt. The dual grind is an interesting concept. I was skeptical until you explained the reasoning behind it. Fine work on the handle design and materials. Looks like you got a winner.
Certainly seems to be another great knife from WC Knives in partnership with Black Hat Bushcraft. Well thought out, a perfect size, and a quality design. Looking forward to learning more about this knife. Thank you for sharing this. - Tennessee Smoky
I just got mine in today. It is with the black micarta scales. It is beautiful and the little bit of carving I have done, it works great. The Blackbird, Blackhat, and Corporals Corner Camp and Trail are my 3 favorite knives.
It will definitely make a great companion! You will have two great knives my friend! Thank you for your interest and support and I hope they both serve you well for many years to come. Take care!
Just received my new knife. As usual, WC has great quality. I own several WC knives. Great design Matt. I look forward to using the knife in the field soon. Love the size, handle, blade design and both grinds. I'm tempted to get one more of the first run knives from Ridgerunner blades while they still have a few left. I know they will only increase in value. Everyone will want one of these. Again, great job and congratulations, your name is on a quality product. God bless. Charles, from Give God More Ministries.
I love the knife...and the ergonomic engineering design of the blade, the 2 part beveling...never thought it possible...the handle? Love the ergonomic design..though it has just a slight of a finger guard...made it so now to trust yourself in getting your fingers to trust handling positions of work. Love the knife...and I'm looking to invest in this tool to my bushcraft toolbox for use. I'm not keen on wood handle scales(in general),I prefer micarta scales...but this knife pops with the wooden scales...I like the liners on it as well..this is a beautiful knife...and a hybrid (big plus)..ahhh..let us not forget the 90 degree spine...yes,yes,yes!looking great on form,fit,and function...the sheath with fire loop...liking that...wow...I love to get my hands on it! I look at practicality and uniqueness in all work knives...two thumbs up 👍🏻👍🏻...no...10..a perfect 10...great video there in showing tests on it..I'll be checking into getting my own...out of all the custom knives I researched, this one I am impressed...thanks once again for the opportunity to see these test demos...take care..and God bless.
Thank you so much for your kind words Steven!! I really appreciate your comments and the good news is they will be getting some micarta models in this week that may be exactly what you want. I believe there are 3 green, 3 natural (brown) and three black micarta models on the way. I hope you can grab one and I truly hope it will serve you well my friend! I hope to hear your thoughts once you get to handle it. Take care and God bless you as well!
Super excited for you! Nice to see some innovative thinking and not just another 5” Scandi drop point that could have come from one of a thousand makers. Did I miss the discussion on the steel? I know you’re not a steel nerd, neither am I, but would be interested to know if you had any discussion about steel choices.
Wonderful looking knife you abd everyone involved with it should be very proud of it. Shame I am in Cornwall England as not a chance I will be able to get one….. poor me poor me.
Thank you so much for your kind words and I know shipping is steep but I feel confident they would get it to you if you wanted. Either way, blessings to you across the pond my friend!
The Nessy aka Lark definitely influenced my design! That is still one of my favorites and I have no doubt it always will be! This one sort of takes up where the LARK leaves off. They make an Amazing pair :) Thanks for tuning in Todd!
Thank you so much Jeff! It truly is a pleasure to use. As you can see, I fancy it quite a bit :) I hope you can get a hold of one and I hope you will like it as much as I do! I hope to hear your thoughts if you get one. Take care.
Hi John, Thank you so much and just to give you a heads up, you aren't too late. They should have the first shipment of these around mid week so definitely check in with them. I appreciate your support very much and if you get one, I truly hope it will serve you as well as mine is for me. I would be glad to hear your thoughts on it! Take care and good luck.
Hello and thank you for your interest! The store is Ridgerunner Blades. I have a link to their site in the description box. They should get the first shipment this coming week so give them a call or keep an eye on the site. I hope you can get a hold of one and if so, I would be glad to hear your thoughts and experience with it. Take care.
Congrats on your fulfillment of designing and implementing your knife. I am glad you were able to find someone to bring it to life but also someone to provide sheaths for it. Rich Blessings
I'm not sure about those finger choils on the handle, that I always hate but the rest of the design, seems like the perfect outdoors knife!!! I really like ,where WC knives have ended up. Didn't like his first knives, these though...it's the opposite! Good job mr W.C.!!!
Well after getting one I can say the finger choils as you called them are wonderful and amazing, even for my large hands. I dont know if I would change anything with this knife tbh except maybe making the lanyard attachment just a little longer and stick out more. Im so impressed that I may see about getting another.
As I'm exploring the need to do more bushcraft, I've been looking for a knife. I prefer quality especially if its something I am going to be relying on and using alot of. My concern is that Ive got large hands and tend to find handles with finger ridges tend to be uncomfortable or dont line up with my hands properly. How long is the handle? I need at least a 4-5 inch handle for it to fit my hand properly.
Knife just arrived. The coyote suretouch was beautiful. Ive got very large hands and it fit well. The handle is thicker which is nice. The finger grooves are subtle but perfect and aid in having a solid grip. One thing that wasnt mentioned was how the tang sticks out a little bit beyond the handle for a lanyard attachment. Its also slightly recessed with the handle being relieved to create a cavity to feed the lanyard into. While it might make it slightly difficult to feed in a lanyard I like it. it also would let you hit something with it. So far i am very pleased and impressed with it. I got the non fero rod vertical sheath. Its very robust and the knife joes sit deep within it . I just wish it had a positive retaining strap as I would be concerned about it loosening up over time.
Thank you so much Andy! They should be receiving the first shipment by Wednesday or Thursday this week. Good luck and please let me know what you think when you are able to get one! Take care my friend.
Hi Axel, it can definitely serve that purpose. I have used it quite a bit to process food and meat and it does great for me. The sheath can be purchased from Randy Smith at Stitched Gear Outfitters. Randy has designed a perfect fitted sheath for this knife. If you get one, please let me know what you think. I would be glad to hear your feedback.
@@blackhatbushcraft I was waiting to hear back from you before I ordered the knife, I think they had three or four available at the time. However I didn’t hear back from you in time and I panicked a little bit as over the past five or six months I’ve had similar things happen, where I tried to get one of his knives and something weird happened or they sold out from underneath me somehow. So I decided to order the knife even before I heard back from you. Hopefully it goes through tomorrow without any issue because they were closed when I ordered it. They only had one option for a sheath at ridge runner, it’s the vertical sheath without the fire rod holder. I went ahead and included that in the order, but I think I’ll send it to Randy when I get it so he can treat it with the beeswax stuff that he has. It’ll be a little bit of an inconvenience but it’ll be worth it according to him. The sheath was on the expensive side a little bit but according to what you said in the video that she is very nice and worth it.
@@blackhatbushcraft Your video definitely helped me decide on this knife. I already have a couple dedicated hunting knives, but I wanna be able to use this one as well and have this in a backpack for hiking and for hunting as a back up knife for sure. Or Bushcrafting knife. With the drop point tip, I think it will do fine on processing a deer even the skinning and cutting part I think it will be fine. But also it seems like a very versatile knife for other things. I am not a woodworker by any means or a woodcarver, but I think it will be good for other tasks. You did a great job on the video
I wanted to let you know I got the black hat knife today in the mail. It’s a nice looking knife, and I really like the maple wood handle on it. I have not had a chance to do anything with it as I need to send the sheath to Randy at stitched gear outfitters to put his wax treatment on the sheath! So far I like what I see with the knife, my only complaint is that it doesn’t have much of a finger guard. For being such a big and long blade, I think it would benefit having more of a finger guard for sure. I’m going to see if I can get used to it if not I might sell it. Maybe I can learn how to get used to it, but I’ll have to get a really tight grip a pie near the base of the blade
Congratulations on bringing your idea into production. I'm sure they will be difficult to get one. It looks very well thought out and versatile. Will you keep making batches until sales slow down?
William is a superb gentleman. He is a master humble enough not to know it ...he did master that double grind for to great grids I have a prototype of his and never gets uncomfortable Matt I just look said no results at ridge runner
Hi Tom, I totally agree sir, William is indeed a master of his trade! I am so pleased to partner with him on this project! Ridgerunner will be getting the first shipment this coming week so you aren't too late. Probably by mid week they should receive the package and it shouldn't be long from there. Good luck and I hope you get one! If you do miss this one, there is already a second run ordered. Take care sir and thank you for your interest and support.
Tom, if you are not able to get a first run, I did order two. Loved the first one so much. I will sell the black micarta if you need one. No profit, just at cost. But if you get one, id like to keep both. Good luck. Both are first run. I love this knife.
@@givegodmoreministries2315 That is a very kind offer from you my friend. I am so glad to hear you are enjoying the knife! I hope it serves you well for a lifetime. God bless you and yours!
So Mat, What no hook. I'm hooked, lol I guess your not. My first hook was of course The Tracker, 20 some odd years ago, wow. The woodsman grind is of course Williams, he doesn't claim it. But I think he's deservedly made it his own. I've gone more toward a sloping hook with the wedge grind. Great Vid well done you really covered a lot of aspects of your design. BK
Thank you so much Robert! I agree, I know there have been others to do multi-grinds but I personally feel like William has taken it to the next level. He is an amazing craftsman. I do like the hooks, they perform well but I guess I didd go a little more traditional on this design. Thank you for tuning in and commenting Robert, I really appreciate it.
3mm (Almost 1/8th) is the max you can go with a scandi grind medium size knife. Less than that will slice better, ore than that is a NO NO. Marketing trends and the huge misinformation spread on TH-cam, is responsible for tons of valuable knowledge on many tools. Axe was the frst victim, that chainsaws killed, now it's the knife, that TH-cam kills it.
