I miss the older version made with D2 tool steel
Favorite "big chopper"? Cant decide on this :BK21,Condor Amalgam...nothing in stock by Barkriver for at least 2 years
i have this knife(black) for 2 years ,and for camping,wood,field,mountains,sea.......you do not need anithing else.
greatings from croatia
Thanks man, glad to know there is some life in it. Il be using it throughout this hunting season to really put through the paces. Thanks for watching
That is one of the best, most concise reviews I have ever seen. You nailed every possible point I believe you could have covered...and thanks for showing a proper method for tying a lanyard. The simple basic loop, like a swing on the wrist, always seemed a bit unsafe for my liking! Excellent review.
Mine is still going strong 5 and a half years on. Highly would recommend this blade as an all purpose carry. Definitely one of my favorites in my collection without a doubt. Great video man.
Couple years ago my son wanted a kukri for christmas. But when I went to Cabella's a few days before Xmas (cause I suck at Chritmasing) they were all sold out. The only thing mildly resembling a kukri was the the camp 10 so I (with some disapointment) purchaded it for my son. In the months that followed, I was so completly blown away by sheer amout of abuse and punishment this thing could take, I bought one for every member of my family, and will probably continue to buy them for friends (btw, if you want to know how much punishment a knife can take - just give it to a 13yr old boy for a few months. Our little tests are bullshit by comparison lol). I wouldn't say that this is just the best knife for the money - but I'd go as far as to say it's one of the most solid knives out there period.
Cool, thanks for that information. I like it so far but I dont use it much because I have a few that I have made, that I prefer. This one is more of a "camp loaner" in my wall tent kit now.
Your opinion is correct I owe one all so love it .
I wouldn't buy a Chinese blade, but the review from Tac (Tactical Show) and his Small Machete Shoot Out convinced me into getting one. Never regretted it, bought the grey version for about 35 Dollars on Amazon and have been using it daily for several years now. Best knife for the money (okay okay, on par with the Skrama from Varuteleka :)). This thing chops, hacks, delimbs, batons and you can even use it for finer woodwork too. Buy one, you will love it! As a little tip I would like to advise to use some hockey tape on the handle, it will be the most comfortable handle you have ever felt, guaranteed!
Das ist falsch. Die Messerklingen aus China sind echt gut und günstig. Das Kershaw Camp 10 kriegst du nicht kaputt. Joe X ist an der Klinge verzweifelt. Selbst eine Kugel als der Heckler Koch und eine Kugel aus dem Sturmgewehr des Heeres von Österreich machten die Klinge nicht kaputt. Hingegen hielten Messer die das zehnfache kosteten der Belastung nicht Stand. Also nicht alles aus China ist Scheisse !!!! MfG
I’ve got a lot of knives around here, big & small. Plus I’ve made Nordic & Western knives for years. There are many aspects of the Camp 10 that are outstanding but the primary thing is how well it cuts. It’s a winner.
It is a good blade for sure.
Thanks for a great review. I watch many reviews and you hit the sweet spot. Enough detail. Real world. Thoughtful. Something I would trust. BTW I do like this knife. A lot. Surprising to me that there are not more large recurves out there. Besides the sharpening thing and maybe sheath fit, there seem to be so many advantages to a curved edge. Again though, many thanks for this great contribution to knife knowledge online.
I have one and it has the best feeling handle of all the knives I own. I also ran a piece of paracord through the sheath and cut down the noise.
My buddy and I just got back from a 3 day trip in the Great Smokey Mountains. Not a dry piece of wood anywhere. We carry a saw to cut logs. The Camp10 split Hemlock logs with ease. Performed great. Batons like a champ. Used a larger limb as a sledgehammer. I beat this thing into the ground and it kicked ass. I love this thing. Lost a little bit of the finish but there’s not a Knick or structural flaw to be found. Best tool I own. Packed easily. Light weight. Bad Mutha F er!! Good job Kershaw! Well done.
thanks for sharing your experience with it. you never really know until you start putting a blade to work.
Good review. I'm looking for a large fixed blade knife, and this one seems like a good fit. The price is also pretty good.
I’ve considered that knife in the past but never went ahead and purchased one. I’ll pass on it since that role is filled by my Skrama bush knife. The Skrama runs about $30-40 more but it’s the best blade of its type that I’ve used to date. (Including some high end customs)
Blue Mountain Bushcraft and Outdoors I have some really nice large customs, some I have made and some not, I also have some nice productions from Tops and the like. But there is a certain value in a tool that I can consider expendable as well. But I feel you bro. Some blade are just like old friends that can never be replaced.
Survivology 101 there is definitely value here. I bring up the Skrama because it’s not much more expensive and has a huge amount of utility. I trust your opinion so I appreciate the review of this knife.
Thanks for the video! I just bought a camp 10 in the same color combo as yours. It's great!
Great review, thanks. I am not a big knife guy, but I have been looking at this for a while. I put money down on my belt knives (mostly Bark River and LT Wright), but I don’t want to spend as much for a knife I won’t use much. I think this will fit the bill.
My buddy has one, which is why I ended up checking out this video.
It takes of 1"+ branches in one swing, and makes very short work of trees 4-5" in diameter. Edge retention on his is great. His is about 4 years old.
Ditching my machete for one of these.
Thanks for that comment. Glad that you had the chance to get hands on one.
Nice informative review I just bought the Kershaw Camp 10 and I'm adding to my outdoor camping gear thank you for sharing your review
My pleasure, thank you, this one now lives in my hunting truck emergency kit.
Just subbed ,one of the best reviews if not the best one I've seen for the camp 10 I've been thinking about getting one for a while now and you've just made my mind up for me it's time to get looking for one on Amazon, thanks mate good video👍👍
Thanks and welcome here. I have links in the description to this blade in FDE and the origional black version on Amazon. Feel free to share with anyone else that might be interested.
@@MakersMovementDIY thanks bro I'm on it right now
Another great video, I subscribed on the last one earlier today. I have a big box full of knives, mostly big choppers like that from TOPS and others. If I come across this knife in my travels I will definitely remember this video and consider it.
thank you and thanks for the sub
Looks like a solid chopper..
I have used this knife for camping many years now. It holds up and works very well.
MileHighAC thanks for the comment. That is good information to have.
Im still putting mine through the paces but it seems to be holding up good.
We have a lot of truly great camping knives here made in America. I would always consider them first!
3 years later and I'm still beating on my Camp 10. An amazing blade for what you pay for it.
Great vid BTW.
good to know, and thanks for the comment.
The "rattle" in the sheath means, it is wide enough for putting it in an out while working safely like with a quiver. I found out you can stop the rattle entirely by just laying the snap strap back around the beltloop strap. That way there is more pressure on the knife.
Great solution for the rattle. It works. Thanks for the information.
That's the right colour for that knife! X
A buddy of mine has owned one of these for a long time and likes it but Im not sold on the rough grip. Ive used similar in the past and they have eaten my hand without gloves and that is not acceptable. Great blade design and good steel for sure.
Love my Kershaw's always had good luck with them
This one lives in my truck now as part of my emergency kit. I think it will do nicely in a bad situation.
Is the Kershaw Camp 10 worse than the Kershaw 1079 Outcast? The Camp 10 costs around €80 and the 1079 over €140!
Nice thx for ur professional description.. 👍🏻
new to your channel like what I see. Great review looking at getting a new camp knife. have a happy new year
I'm not gonna lie, you could do better than this knife but you would have a hard time doing better for the money.
@@MakersMovementDIY this will be a knife that I'm not worried about something I can hand to someone in camp and if they just put down it's ok and for the money it's good
@@Love2Wander perfect.
I have the older blue handle one I've had it some time now ..and its reliable and really useful. Love mine
I have a camillus bolo type machete the blade length is 10 inches it also has a recurve blade it has a cheap nylon sheath and I also have a kukri that is also made out of stainless steel
Really good review something to think about,,I like reviews where the negatives are noted first then a good test so you can make your own decision,nice work as always
Pacediver thank you
Absolutely a cool looking knife. It is my experience that many people get a hugh knife when what they really needed was a good field axe. The knife has a sharp point for piercing, the axe not, but beside from that a good field axe can do everything a knife can and off course for chopping an axe is always better
Good overview Dave,...i used this one in my Skrama Vs Mystery knife video...i made a few mods to mine and it just eek'd out ahead of the Skrama...both really good big blades for the money!...subbed...atb...woods
I agree it is a great value for the money and will out perform most peoples needs.
This knife always interested me, but I already have the Kershaw 1079 Outcast, as well as many other knives in this size range, so it would just be redundant.
Enjoyed the review. Appreciate the value based assessment and work with the blade. Nice vid!
Justin Dimmick Thank you
I also own this knife and am very happy with it. Great video!
thank you
Survivalology101 I like you're video's please keep up the good work and I thank you for serving our great country a fan and veiwer in Texas
awesome I am glad that you enjoy them. thanks for watching .
I love my Kershaw camp 10 but it does not even come close to my Gerber galok which is a beast just saying
Reminds me of my SP-53, which is an exceptional knife.
Pleasure watching such a great honest review.
Thank you.
Hi Dave, like your channel and since you asked for our thoughts and opinions I thought I'd share mine.
I don't own the Kershaw but one of my friends do and left it with my for a couple weeks to play with so I do have some experience with it.
In general I think it's a decent blade. It chops well and handles nicely. For the money it's a good deal.
I'm into knives, axes, big choppers and machetes and have a pretty good sized collection. I live out in the sticks and have done a lot of wood cutting and machete work most of my life.
That being said I thought I'd make a few suggestions as far as big blades and choppers in the price range of your Kershaw. Ontario makes the SP5 and SP10 that are really great choppers and work knives. Plus they are made in the USA which is great especially considering their cost.
Cold Steel also makes some great choppers that are about half the price of the Kershaw. I've owned most of their machetes and while the two that come to mind are slightly larger. The magnum kukri and heavy machetes are the ones I'm talking about. Both are fairly lightweight and are extremely efficient choppers for under twenty dollars. I may end up adding that Kershaw to my kukri style blade collection. I used to think kukri blades were kinda ugly till I used one. Now they are some of my favorites.
Thanks for your insight. I have nothing to add, you are correct. Thank you for watching.
That new color, we're they trying to make the camp 10 look more tactical? Like an OKC3? I'll keep my black and gray one just cause it looks more campy. Very nice blade design and functional sheath.
I can't speak for Kershaw but that seems to be the case. I think both versions look good depending on what kit they are paired with....personally I would prefer one in olive. I think that would meet both standards and would look cool also.
Great knife like the design but 2ins more blade would be a little better I think
Excellent review.
thanks
Good review. Thanks for posting this.
Your welcome, thanks for watching.
Cool Video 👍
Thank U for the Info and the Links 👍
U got a new subscriber....
Greetings from Austria Vienna ✌️
Thanks for sticking around, welcome here.
I can see some screws on the handle. Is the handle removable?
The screw heads are T-20 but I have never taken mine off. looks like you can take out all four and slide the handle off the tang but i don't know for sure.
Dont know this steel. Does it chip /roll easy?
How does it compare to say CROVAN 1095?
have a favorite 2-3 "Big choppers" ?
Bump
Sorry i missed this comment for some reason. I cant really answer your question, i have limited experience with variant of chinese steel. seems to be holding up well for me though. although Ill admit that it is not one of my main blades.
mine was a little dull but sharpened up fine
Made me a subscriber with this video.
Cool, thank you.
i just got one last week cost au100 when i cheak the ebay price keep going up au130 to au160 ,
The CRKT chanceinhell is similar, but has a better fit & finish in my oppion.
I'll have to check that out. I like CRKT products.
Great review Gunny. Looks like a good one.
Nate
Journeyman 71 Thanks Nate
I considered to buy one !!
if you can get it at a good price i would say go for it but you can do better for a bit more money.
Nice review.
Thank you
Is it stainless
No it's not stainless it is a high carbon steel with a protective coating. But I wouldnt expect the coating to last very long.
@@MakersMovementDIY thanks
Nice review Gunny, although I still won't buy it LoL! I'm a Smith so...... Nicely designed, in line with Kershaw's products in general. Semper Fi
Semper fi, I certainly understand the mind of a smith. thanks for stopping by.
Thanks for your input but I’ll stick with my skrama I paid about 50$ for it I just have a hard time buying using Chinese products
Apache 4570 i understand that completely. You really never know what you are gonna get or if they ripped of an american companies designs. I totally get what you are saying.
Ontario knives is another one you should check out
Cool, I'll do that.
It seems to be a very good tool. We wanted to get one for testing and own use but when we realised that it has a fake, plastic (rubber) pommel, which only looks as if it could be used for e.g. crushing the ice but is useless in reality - we decided to look for another camp machete/knife.
We do not think that adding a functional tang pommel suitable for crushing the ice is extremely difficult and would significantly increase the costs yet if such feature would be present in this particular knife/machete it would add to it a new dimension of applications.
The handle could also be made from micarta or wood instead of this cheap rubber/plastic.even if it would make this machenife or kifete a bit more expensive.
Got mine for 41 bucks with free shipping! Great blade for the price!!!!
Gruggs Giero where did you pick it up? Do you have the original or the new tan version?
New Tan version. Ebay from eCop. I just checked and he raised the price.... Geez.
Excellent review, I'll stay with me Kershaw Outcast in D2!.....ATB!
Parabéns pelo canal gostei muito
you can also strap it to the belt like a viking sax ;)
I like it great job
Jordan Hyland thanks man.
Great Review 👍
Thanks! 👍
put packing foam in the bottom of the sheath it will stop the rattle.
I'll try that, thanks
Is it a knife or a machete?
It is a knife, a machete has specific uses and as such, specific design requirements that this does not meet. More accurately I would call this a kukri. Thanks for watching.
It's a KnifeChete!
This knife and and a Mora Companion would cover 99% of just about everyone's woods needs.
Hi. Nice video bro)
J'ai beaucoup de machette chez moi, et c'est ma préféré
I sell knives and I promote the Keyshawn 10 /14 and 18 together with cold steel bushman the three best knives for the price out there
Funny 😄 how you choo that tree ha ha ha ha ha! 😁 No offense.
I only paid $32 for the black and blue camp 10 on Amazon.
Threeper79 yea, it's crazy how much more they can charge for a color swap.
Survivology 101 It’s crazy! Gerber pulls the same crap with the strongarm. $10-$15 more for coyote over black. I think I’m with the majority on this one, for $50 I’d pay a lil more and go with a skrama. Tan don’t impress me that much! :)
Truth!
👍
It screams value.
Could a person heat the sheath with a heat gun and place it under a weight to tighten up retention?
DezDawg I suppose you could if you were brave enough. It is plastic not kydex so if it is overheated it will be ruined.
U just chopped a poor oak tree, Schrade makes one exactly the same kukri style same quality and even cheaper.
I haven't seen the Scrade version, I'll keep my.eye out. Oak tree? Hahah, no oaks here my friend.
Это реально хороший инструмент))Лагерник, можно порезать хлеб,сало,мясо,колышки застрогать,дрова на рубить!Для самозащиты подойдёт(сабак распугать),метнуть в дерево,двухногие животные не подойдут внушительный вид,зомби не почём!
The cookery was made to the Hackett jungle and large bushes not chop wood yes it doesn't fairly decent because of its large size and heavy blade but additional knives in this country in America is been fixed blade by the American Indians which is between 5 and 6 in glass rock and if they used a metal it be no bigger 8in the most the largest bladed weapons Native Americans used was a spear and they ran between 8 and 12 in double sided blade and for centuries they had no reason to change a heavier blade
I just wish Kershaw made more fixed blades, or better yet, zero tolerance 🔪🗡🔪🗡🔪.
Iinda peça
Alot of people like that one.
Frozen Turtlefarts they did it right IMHO
thank god he didn't waste time and basically said it was a junk china knife in the first 30 secs
Just get a hatchet! And carry an Esee.
Great video, thanks for the review liam neeson lol.
All Kershaws are made in china for the past...maybe...10years...
Вот это ножик
I wanted this knife, until you said made in China
Its good quality for the price, that's all I can say.
Make it in the US with American steel and I would be happy to pay three times the amount rather than a Chinese made knife 🔪 👍🏻🇦🇺
I didnt make it but cool. The ones I make are all American.
100
I don't like Chinese knives and I don't trust Chinese, I just spend a little more money and I choose Silky nata , that's the hatchet I tested for several times and it's never embarrassed me in hard times
As soon as u said china I turned off the video
It doesn't mater where the steel was made all that maters is the Grade of steel.
.....Nepalese Kukri 's are 5160 , and are great at there job......will support Nepal , not China , no offense !
I was interested until you said CHINA
Great review. Made in China? Sorry , that's a deal breaker.
Not always, sometimes you need a blade that is "expendable" but probably won't break.
@@MakersMovementDIY being a bladesmith, I don't consider any blade expendable. China makes some good steel. I just won't buy chinese products.
I get that. Buut buying from China is practically unavoidable these days. Especially for people living on a budget. I am also a bladesmith and maker of just about everything and I can't even avoid Chinese products. Even my American machines are made with Chinese parts. A noble pursuit that most of us cannot live up to. Never the less I wish you luck.
@@MakersMovementDIY very true. Hopefully we can all be just a little bit more aware as consumers. China has made it clear, they are not allies with this country.
@@blackironforge2879 That they have for sure my friend.
Uugh....made in china...lost interest...questionable quality
