- Zombie Tools, ZT, Zakasushi, Sword, Stuff You Don't Need But Wish You Had
Preparedmind101 had the chance to play with some steel from the PBR-Slaying Madmen of Montana, Zombie Tools. Not wanting to end up on the news, they sent me one of the "small" swords, the Zakasushi. After three weeks of staring at it wondering "How the hell do I review this thing?" I finally said "****-it" and just started cutting and chopping. Not having the meat budget of Cold Steel or the craftiness of Zombie-Go-Boom, I just decided to destroy whatever was around.
While not as jaw dropping as some other videos, the sword remains in my possession, waiting for that ideal opportunity for youtube blade demo and comedic glory....

"Honey...? Why is the neighbor hacking up a night stand with a huge sword...???"
Police show up... "Ummm.. this is my job?"
I actually had my neighbours call the cops on me because I was using a machete to chop the crab grass out of the crack where the concrete of the curb and gutter meets the asphalt of the street. Happily, by the time the reserve "senior patrol" showed up, the machete was hanging up in the garage, and I was holding nothing more threatening than a broom and dustpan. Still, they stopped like 30 feet down the street and I saw them talking on the radio. People and cops have both become so paranoid it's not funny.
CountryBoyPrepper man that had me laughing hard as hell
@@R3dp055um never underestimate a skilled shaolin with a broomstick
I want to go back to wearing swords in public, for personal protection only.

Totally cool, you were cracking me up on that one hahah. Wayne Goddard sez that a properly heat treated sword of 5160 will out perform a samurai sword, and he knows. 5160 is one of the toughest steels available.
And all just for science! I really apreciate your dedication for science! Big Thank you!
Finally! Been waiting for this review forever!
That crooked-ass piece of nightstand isn’t looking at you funny anymore, is it...? Haha! Excellent slaying, sir. Seemed like the right tool for the job. This whole abusive-testing phenomenon is really firing up the blade smiths... and in turn, firing up the blade testers... a vicious and glorious cycle... Holy hell, that sword is exactly what I would want to re-dead the undead. You’re not going to make it 10 minutes with a crossbow, let alone 10 years... Daryl. You need an indestructible sword! And some sharpening skills. Thanks for helping us all prepare!
Finally!!! A fun video!! Yes, I do enjoy your outdoor, bushcraft videos. But I sure do love the fun and crazy things you tend to do with these tools haha!
You are having WAY too much FUN there. :) I think I would call that blade the DESTROYANATOR! :)
A chinese made katana made with spring steel can easily cost 300-400. I think given how durable the ZT products are, it's a bargain.
Also katanas arent very intimidating. ZT have the look of brutality that the katanas don't have.
Oh extreme, considering I looked at a miller bros balde which is like $2700 for 5192
I have been drooling over Zombie Tools for a few months now... forget how I found them... but their D'captain and Reaper are defiantly on my list.
That was extreme Chris, I love it!
Warning: you can't shoot this blade with 7.62
I saw that video. All I can say is. ..."Duh!"
Not even the glorious Mosin Nagant can stand against this demon steel
u nailed it,these guys make one hell of a blade.
I AM BUYING THIS THING, END OF DISCUSSION.
Nether Dominator Did you? IF so, was it awesome?
how is it
You get it?
Love my Apokatana!
All I gotta say is WOW. That blade took quite a beating and that edge was still razor sharp.
I remember these guys had a short lived show on the Science Channel were they were building a bunker and you got to see them making their tools and weapons... Very impressive!
My 10 and 8 year old boys thoroughly enjoyed you destroying the night stand!!! Lol!!!
Good review. Thanks for posting it.
That was awesomely beautiful.
Hello Cold Steel?? Helloooo? Are you there??
Crickets.
I've been waiting for this how'd I miss it in my feed dang youtube.
I've been looking at this blade's big brother, the apokatana. This was very helpful
Your a SPAZ!!! Love it!!!! Are your anger management classes pissing you off!!! Hilarious!!!!
Wow you know he's not messing around when he slaps in right into his deck! My wife would kill me.
The neighbor is like" honey, he's out back breaking shit again" 😆
This piece was looking at me funny! lol! awesome video.
You should really get the Hellion. I have one on order. CAN'T WAIT!!
I'm surprised how tough and resistant the particle board proved to be.
i love watching prepared mind lol
Awesome video!!
Oh man chris, you opened up a whole can of worms. All the armchair ninja plebs are out in force today! Awesome review by the way. As a blade maker, I can definitely see the reason these things cost so much. They are made out of a high quality material, they are hand made, not machine pressed like the $50 dollar SLO's most of these guys have, and they are expertly tempered. Check their destruction vid out on their channel where they go all man mode on the Deuce II.
Sure, they aren't historically accurate, but from a company named zombie tools, I doubt they were goin for that. These things ARE absolute tanks. You need to go to absolutely unreasonable lengths to break one of these things. They bend to 90 degrees, they cut like absolute bosses.....I would take one of these over one of those ass traditional made katanas any day.
Also, whoever was calling this thing a wakizashi is insane, this is closer to a full length katana.
I was waiting For this vídeo!!!
amazing !!!! they send to Brazil ?
You had me at zombies
have you gotten anything else from their line up?
Chris, what type of microphone are you using?
Fun vid. Right now I am not personally looking for a zombie killing Sword but if I every am it's nice to know where to look. Until then if I run into zombies I will just have to take my civil war artillery short Sword of the wall.
Watching this 6 years later.... creepy predictions
Sure, but can it do feather sticks and can you strike sparks off the spine....LOL. Fun video...thanks!
Just bought the ferrous wolf. These 8-10 weeks are killing me. I can't wait to chop stuff up while camping.
Now you need the Apokatana!
Zombie Tools Zicki Zacki?
A Zombie Tool has some new relevance in times of Covid19.
Does it pass all of Davids criteria . Also could replace an ax or do very well in a jungle or swamp.
"I'm gonna get on my knees for this one" "that's what she said"-Tactical #AHHHHYEAH
Their Kraken would help with frustrating furniture.
ive fell in love with this thing but sadly its so expensive
Have fun cleaning up that mess Chris .. That was a cool video to watch .. lmao .. Nice destruction !!
Awesome vid Chris i'd love to get a ZT, the problem is which one, i want em all lol
I couldn't tell for sure,but did u touch up the blade? If not, was that a mirrored edge on it cuz it looked like it. Sweet vid,good to know. Lol
Would love to see them make this double edged and make it like a gladiator's sica.
Cool sword. I will check out their website.
Love this video!,!
That is just cool!
I never thought I could ever consider spending that much on a blade but that's just cool...
Chris I have NEVER LMAO so much on a video!!!!!
You are one funny son of gun ....
Keep STYLIN BRO !!!!
Cool video. 5160 is a very tough steel. These guys have their heat treat dialed in for sure. Swords seem to be on the heavy side but if your gonna be hacking through truck hoods I guess a fatter back bone is needed.
Where's part 2?
heyyy this is the video that got me into your channel xD
What's the point of balance on the zakasushi?
Awesome, I want one :-)
Love it!!! :-)
Where is the 2nd part video?
I so want one!!
Rock the 5th chakra with the Vakra. I love mine. It's a beast.
I can't believe you didn't flame up that night stand... you're slipping!
At the old place I would have. No privacy. Luckily I have a huge patio.
PREPAREDMIND101
Oh man, keep the fire hose nearby! I think everyone should have some type of large sword... Great ammo saver!
Finally, something to get through my sister in laws turkey
How is the weight balance tho
LOL Awesome video man!!
I've been following ZombieTools since they came out, they make some of the nicest swords I own next to Rob Criswell a renowned blacksmith from Portland Or who retired some years back. I cant say enough nice things about their product or how awesome they are.
awesome
you funny to day. love it
HONEY I WHACKED THE FUNITURE!
I own the Vakra and I was thoroughly impressed. I recommend it
OK, that is awesome!
Oh baby!! I know this is an old vid Chris, but I'm in the market for a sword, I'm thinking a short sword like this, but not sure. BTW, I love how you begin this vid man, sharing your thoughts of how cool it would be if TWD were our reality & we're the cool kids on the block for already having many dozens of fixed blades. Anyhow man, I'm not 100% sure how TH-cam works in this respect, if you even see comments from 2yo vids or what, but if you do see this, I'd love to get your thoughts on purchasing this vs. the ZT Apokatana - 2" longer handle & 7" longer blade, so 39.5" OAL vs. 30.5 OAL of this Zakasushi. I don't want to get both, & really, the sword I buy will be the one & only sword I buy as I'm an open carry fixed blade guy, but not a sword guy...I just want one, & a good one - aesthetically ba-dass & useable/tough. Give me your advice please - give it to me!! Thanks brother.
What was in the night stand
Haaaaaaa thats awesome brother.
i guess it was intended to be used 1 handed, the longer hilt was design to balance the blade.
I think we need to meet your wife, so we can thank her for letting you do this stuff
She doesn't watch. But she's always amazed when we're out and I get people coming up to talk to me.
Not a fan of the Jessica meme, BTW.....
I want their ferrous wolf and the diphos and yeah Know several other people who want to get stuff from them good video thanks
Did you look at the apokatana I'm torn between the 2
MrBlackchook me too man :(
The guys at ZT also drink their beverage and THAN fill it with water. lol
That is one Bad-Azz Blade! Looks like you have too much fun when you're just making it up.
who woudda thunk! the crappy nightstand offered more resistance than the 2x4
All I can say is holy WOW!!!!!
I wouldn't think you only need this for a zombie outbreak. In country's with no guns it would do nicely in protection yourself during unrest against hostiles or could be used on animals
"an insane amount of blades in our crotch"
What you say at the beginning of this video is so incredibly valid today that is almost premonitory. China does not want the virus investigated and I assume it's not due to the girl scouts selling cookies there if you know what I mean. And the Zombie Tools are the first theme blades that I see that actually work, unlike some other kinda cool looking "zombie blades" or just themed blades that end up being too unwieldy or just not made real use. These on the other hand can for sure take the use and sometimes even abuse.
With my Wakizashi I cut a water bottle in 5 pieces with out knocking it over.
So much for the edge on that blade, swords not meant to be axes.
where part 2
“What am I supposed to do, ..wrap this in Cardboard?” OK, Chris, enough with the Anti-Busse Combat blades statements! My TGULB knife’s feelings are hurt.., seriously!!😎🇺🇸
I just bought my third Zombie Tools blade. I bought the Felon and I own both the Backwoods Bone Machete and the Traumahawk. Great stuff. Where is the second video though? lol
All I can say . Miller brothers !
Haha Yes "cool" is a legitimate reason to buy a blade, and that blade ranks pretty high on the cool scale!
It felt like watching one of wealljugleknives videos.
my favorite weapon of theirs is the T-Rex!
that sure made a mess lol
Dude if you said "Hassan Chop" (Bugs Bunny) before hitting that 2x4 you would have f'd up ur deck...
What do you think is the most "survival"-ish blade in the the zombie tools line
Ryan Ho Tough Question. Maybe the Felon? Seen quite a few people with those.
PREPAREDMIND101 yeah the Felon is cool
The Vakra hands down
I'd say the rat bastard. Even if the blade dulls the weight will surely do damage.
I have to agree with Derek, the Vakra is fantastic. it's a hatchet, fighting blade, etc.
Just been to the site & I picked the d'Capitan ........................ Nice
