There is a name spoken with hushed tones across the knife world. An insane man that makes even the great Lynn Thompson look tame.
A torturer of steel, the Austrian Destroyer.
Joe X!
More like Austrian albanian destroyer ;)
AMEN FATHER RED!
@ that damn autocorrect got me. Fixed it now. Thanks for that
@@joex 😁👍
Ues, Joe make's knives sing. When brakes😂💪😂
It's nice to see that it took you quite a while to bust my new knife.
true!
This guy is crazy but I like it, he tells us whether a knife is durable or not, worth buying or worth throwing in the pile of shit 😂
thanks a lot bro!
Joey Joey Joey .... smashing up one of my favourite knives you cruel man.
I was actually a bit nervous watching this one, so I am glad it didnt do too badly. I am actually impressed that you managed to break the pommel because that is solid steel and part of the knife.
To be fair, I think it will always snap at that mid point, and it isn't necessarily a "flaw". A kukri is basically a bunch of different design trade-offs, that results in a large, long knife, where the main chopping section of the blade is aligned to the angle of the forearm, and the bulk of the entire mass is at the front. The gooseneck is always going to be the thinnest part. If you thicken it, you will basically end up with a bent broadsword.
Maybe I'm rationalising the failure, who knows.
FYI this was a design collaboration between Joe Flowers at Condor, and Alan Kay, the winner of the Alone tv show. He is a hardcore kukri fan.
Ok, after watching you destroy a K-TAC I think I need to go off and have a little cry ....
Thank you for your fine work sir
hey, thanks for the info, i personally don't like this blade, but this is just me!!!! cheers!
@@joex You are very welcome mate.
I think Kukris are a marmite thing tbh. The design comes from Nepal. Basically its evolved from an agricultural tool like many weapons. Its a way to combine an axe, knife, and weapon, all into one tool. The blade aligns with the forearm angle to reduce wear and tear on the users wrist and maximise the delivery of chopping force. Traditionally (and with this one), the blade is sharpened at different angles at the front, and close to the handle. You do fine work close to the handle, and use the end of the blade for chopping.
Great video mate
thanks!
@@joex in my opinion joe kukri are one of those designs you love or you hate. I've found they require a lot of messing with to get them to preform right. Where other designs comes naturally.
To me they are basically a big hatchet. That can do a bit more then a regular hatchet.
I also believe the kukri is a fighting knife first everything else is a after thought.
@@richardhenry1969 hard to stab with a kukri!
When your neighbor parks their car into your spot... kukri through the windshield :D
this can acutally happen!
I love how Joey just drags the blade through the worst possible tasks to test it. In a real world scenario I doubt anyone will be trying to cut rocks or bricks with a blade. However in an event when you’d like to do so, you know your limits. Top notch video btw x
thanks bro!
Thanks man, you just sold me on this knife. I have the condor duku parang and it is no joke
I've been curious about Condor. Pretty much what I expected. Thanks again for sharing all these great tests!
u are welcome!!!!
I like how the tip bent a couple of times first, before snapping off,, seems like a tough blade,, I'd like to get one of these I think,, great video as usual,,
👍👍👍
i think the tip is good!
These videos make me happy.
cool, thanks!
Cool Kukri. Great choice, Joex
thanks!
.......seems like the SR1-Lite CP and 4Max Scout pass the destruction test like no others. Fixed Blades included. Maximum Respect in Every Aspect!
yeah, it is weird!
Well its cold steel what do you expect? Their knives made with Nokia essence.
They dont show it on the composition chats because they are afraid other knive manufacturers will get wind of it.
Why I know it? Im just a person with an alu-hat.
i wear a combat hat!
@@joex xD, Indeed you do wear one in Your videos!
Everything we know was a lie...
Been waiting for this one. Nice job Joe X. Thanks for doing this video!
cool!
Joe looks like the secret 10th member of the band Slipknot
How did u know?🙈
Good endurance from a knife designed as an attack weapon. I know it's personal but think it is also a very aesthetic piece.
i don*t like it!
@@joex What do you like? In a survival situation what knife would you take??
@@cocovasquez1 not this one"!!!
That looks like a tough blade and handle.
Joe x love your knife tests lol awesome 👌 👏 👍
cool thanks!
Good to see a knife that can take out those damn cars from range!
yeah, finally!
You are an animal!!! Pure entertainment! I'm learning a lot incidentally.
i like that!
And educational 😊
Interesting. Thanks for addressing the grain structure.
i know u like this kind of stuff! did u made my knife already?
@@joex In spring time. Everything is stored. Moving to another country.
the handle looks excellent - i wonder what a Nepal kukri would do - it definatly has a weaker tang but the spring steel is probably stronger because of the tempering they do in those dirty little work shops - they make a excellent blades Joe
we will never know!!!
The condor and even the cold steel kukri are not real kukri - they are just shaped metal - real kukri are special tempered and hammered into shape by craftsman not a stamped and ground by a CNC - a real kukri is a work of art
Micarta handle is ok. I have one whith wood handle.
@@ernesttolic6494 🤟
This was a amazing video
thanks!
buddy, would you test Rui k25 31925 Because I haven't seen that knife on your channel yet Thanks in advance.
thanks!
Mr Glock is a gentleman... and the handle of this kukri looks great.
thank you Joe X.
u are welcome!
I want to say the handle construction looks top notch, but then the blade did break pretty early in the brick smashing text, it's very difficult to say what would have happened if the blade would have lasted longer.
it did ok, but i don't like it!
I'd really love to see you try the tip bend test in a vice grip. It should keep the thin tips from wiggling out of the hole.
Thanks for the video Joe great video. I love what you do. Would you recommend this for a survival tool? Or is there another Kukri out there that you think is better? Maybe one from the Kukri house in Nepal or the D bad design?
i am not a fan of this knife, i would go with the CS Kukris Royal.....
Hahaha they wouldn't shape them like a damn boomerang if they didn't want us to throw em 🤷♂️🤣👌
it is a boomerang!
Thx joe X for this video.....🙏🙏🙏....
u are welcome!
Brickus Maximus killed the Kukri. Awesome and information filled. Thanks Joe.
u are welcome!
Test the Work Tuff Kodiak Next!
Excellent video Mr X. I always look forward to seeing your videos. You are awesome. Thanks for all of your hard work.
thanks a lot Kenneth!
Hi Joe, since you destroyed the K-Tac, you don’t mind sending the sheath to me? I’m buying the condor heavy duty kukri and i think that would fit perfectly.
🙈🙈
Good test. You should test a Himalayan imports khukuri
thanks!
Hope to see the condor moonshiner knife in your awesome reviews
maybe!
Mental note never let Joe barrow your car.
exactly!
Just found this channel haven’t had time to go through all the videos. Can anybody help me along and tell me which Khukuri fared best?
Cold Steel Royal Kukri and Kukri plus from cold steel
So, a 2mm spring steel machete for a third of the price beats this thing. That's embarrassing. Great video as always, you Austrian Oak.
thanks a lot! Yoda!!!! haha!!!!
Yep tramontina machete did better for 20 bucks.
I have this theory that thin blades are harder to break then alot of thicker blades lll
Need to compare apples to apples. That kukri held up just fine.
@@czed7515because they flex instead of snap?
Joe X vs a carbon steel kukri.
I knew this was going to be another great show.
yeeah!!!
In reality, I won’t be chopping rocks or pipes. The Kukri will work in real life situations. Maybe you should try real life scenarios now to change it up. I won’t be shooting my knife either 🤦🏻♂️ So I’ll be just fine with my Kukri
still overpriced and hyped!
Been meaning to snag one of those. Condor can be hit & miss sometimes w/ their designs but i like this one.
ok, cool!
Entertaining video Joe, will you also do other Condor blades? Like the terrasaur?
no not now!
@@joex I understand, no problem
In the encyclopedia, at letter "n" in no bullshit, in testing tools, it shows link to JOE X's channel. Saying that i admire your work it's like i said nothing.
Alles beste und viele glücke aus Polnische messer liebhaber. If i remember correctly. Keep up the great work, and stay safe. Du bist der beste 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
AMEN my friend!!!!!
Feel like this dude would be rlly nice in person
Tops Bushcrafter Kukri is the best kukri ever
Tops, ok, if u say so ! haha!!
Condor has great customer service. Not sure if I'd buy this tho simply because I can't afford it 🤣.I can afford an OKC Alfa instead but Condor still has great customer service.
ok, good to know!
@@joex I bought a Hudson Bay with minor fault or defect. They sent me a new one that got " stopped " in customs. Guess what .They sent another one. That one also got " retained " . They were about to try again but I realized I live in a nightmare of a democracy so I gave up....I think I will be a Condor fan for a long time.
Broke in half at the same spot mine broke
weird!

How did it happen with yours?
I have seen more breakage of the Condor kukri's at the neck.
Just from chopping wood .
Did it happen with yours also.
@@Ve-suvius I was batoning. Beat on it pretty hard to be honest but thought it could handle it.
@@berg397
Ok, I see.
I guess the machete's of Condor handle more abuse...
@@berg397it SHOULD handle it, that’s what 1075 carbon steel is supposed to do!
I love when you reach out and shoot the corpses of the knives! I love it!
cool!
@@joex Also Joe you shall check your Emails!
@@legendaryschander78 i did
@@joex Nice! Like I said as soon as the knife is out Ill send you a tracking number!
cool!
Love it bro keep them comeing
ok!
Good video again Joe !
thanks!
You definitely put it to the test.
yeah, i think so too!
Under normal use, that Kukri would last a long time. I have the Condor heavy duty version. After sharpening it one day, I was cutting paper with it. My cat was chasing the paper that flew off and I lost concentration. I chopped the side off my left index finger!😂 It’s healed up now but it was decent, a chunk of my finger was sitting on the blade of the Kukri. I threw it in the bin.(the finger chunk, not my Kukri)😊
u are right my friend, but i am not normal!!!! not even close!!!
Haha, you rock Joe. I’m far from ‘normal’ too, whatever ‘normal’ is.
Normal is boring.
indeed brother!
Maybe try the Esee kukri next.
Saw a sizable part of the blade fold on one in another video and the reviewer tried to make excuses for it. 😖
they have a kukri?
@@joex yes, I'll try to find the video I told you about and get back to you.
Edit; the other TH-camr channel is called Thepreppersbunkeroutdoors.
Vai Joe!
I have a Condor Moonshiner that I've used to cut down a number of small trees (4-5 inch diameter) and it's held up pretty well, although the edge does roll occasionally. I wouldn't mind seeing how it would hold up to this kind of abuse!
cool blade!
Have any knives stood up to the test?
yes
@@joex what knives? What ones do you recommend for bushcraft?
@@thomasjames4419 check "survivors video" "top" videos
The sound of metal impacting broken laminated glass.🧐🤌
sounds like victory!
Good cardio man!
indeed!
Joe, das arme Condor kukri war mit dir heillos überfordert!😉👍
😁
I'm just waiting for the episode where he finally says, "This knife we are testing today won't even cut my own nuts off. Watch"
😆
ok!
This video didnt start well, I just had ordered one of these, and I drive a volkswagen just like that...
OMG u are doomed!
Love it dude you rock - and I love kukuri’s
thanks bro!
This is in my to purchase list !! A cheep camp kukri for beating on
ok!
Hahaha cool video 👌👌
thanks!
It's pretty hard to find what you can't break😀 I'm already on the hunt for a Kukri but more in the direction military or combat.
ok, cool!!!!
This tells a lot how the knife is tempered. I think it did very well.
it is shit!
@@joex wtf did you expect lol you hit it on metal and rock
Cool test 👍 thought it would last longer.
Have you ever tested any of the old fashioned, newer Nepal kukris? ?
never!
Can you test the condor neck knife gladius please
maybe!
Joe I need the recipe to your wheaties you eat before you do your videos.....lots of energy and great entertainment . Thanks !
i only eat dinner!
Straight Coke. Lots of it. Lmaoh
1:25 Joe, you should have thought about this before smashing your windscreen. How the hell are you going to drive to the supermarket now that you can't see through it?
EDIT: 1:55 Ah, all good. You made a window in the windscreen. No problem...
yeah, but now something is broken, i think i hitted the "motor" too hard!
@@joex Hahahaha!!!
Nice test - as always, Joe. I would like to see one of Reini Rossmans knives in the test. You still know each other so it should be possible to get some material for testing. I think it would be another nice collaboration between you two.
we will see!!!
thanks... damn it... i have this knife and after your video i'm very disappointed in it
dont be, i destroyed it on purpose!
@@joex yes sir, but I really happy with cold steel 4max scout 😊 Thanks
cool!
El bricko’s revenge
yeah!
Now I’m curious how 5160 steel kukri from Nepal would do
never been there!
The only reason that lasted that long, wich is not long at all, is the blade geometry
Joe, thank you for clarifying the condor heat treatment 😁👏💪
u are welcome!
@@joex 🍻🍻🍻
Joex check out M48 kukri .. I'm really curious how it will perform its built like a tank around 50 dollars US price
no!
I am pretty sure I could survive with this. If I had an axe even better. I will stick to my terava knife.
ok cool!
Perhaps try a real Kukri from Nepal, like a Heritage knives or Kailash blades made from spring steel. The MK1 for example, used in WW1.
maybe
RIP Condor🫡👍
Que faca mais feia, esta eu não quero nem grátis!!
Grande abraço JOE.
gracias!
Another great video of yours! I like the kukri in general, but the weakest part was always clear to me and that is why I didn´t buy it. Thanks to you, we know now, that the weak spot is reality! The other parts - the tip, edge, and handle all of them good for me, esp. for the price. Have a great time again;-) FM
thanks a lot Forest!
Смотря ваши видео я понял, ножей выживания не существует. Вы разнесете на куски любой. Лучше я куплю нож который режет
ok
Why
👌
interesting its 8mm 1075 just like the tops operator and both failed,i wonder if the weight is working against the blade in the testing
5,8mm thick
Definitely that's the case .
The Tramontina is 1075 as well..but less hard probably
yeah, both broke too early!
@@lajosnagy8855 Nope. Tramontina is 1070. The carbon difference is anyway minimal. The hardness on tramontinas is around 52 HRC (in some sources stated as 52-54 HRC but I don't think any of their blades were ever shipped at 54).
This is an interesting remark! The weight has obviously a big word to say on the impact received by a blade stopping instantly into hitting something. The length (i.e. the leverage) should also have a lot of influence on the impact strength.
This video should be rated "X" for Xtreme ass kicking!!!!!
cool, thanks!
You should test the esee laser strike next
you should send it to me
@@joex Crickets...........lol!
@@joex im broke
You should test a real genuine kukri from nepal like the 3 chirra kukri or the Scourge kukri.
I think it'll be very hard to destruct such a nepal build of a kukri
;-)
no
Good job as s usual, but you are scratching the roof paint with your muddy boots!
i now, need to clean it then for hours!
Love it 🥸
cool!

What do you think of the BPS Ukranian knives?
i dont know them
@@joex They are relatively inexpensive knives (especially compared to the ones you test). Made of high carbon or stainless, BPS is a family-run company who often gives away their knives to the Ukranian fighters. I have seen BPS on Amazon, Etsy, and eBay.
I own one (carbon steel) and I really like it. The leather sheaths are good quality, the knives do what they are supposed to do and well, and the price can't be beat (about 35-40 Euros or so per knife?).
I am sure you can break them (because you can break any knife), but I don't think BPS knives would break easily! Go Joe! 8D
@@joex On Etsy, BPS is known as "BushcraftknivesUA"
So technically, I can assassinate people by throwing this at their windshield?
i always do
Killah! 👍👍🗡️🇸🇪🇦🇱
ok
Kukri puzzle 😁😁😁
yeah"
👍👍👍👍👍
Before watching this I knew it would break at the neck.
cool!
Yeah, I have seen more breakage of the Condor kukri's at the neck.
Just from chopping wood .
Not saying this is standard.
ok!
Very sketchy stabbing with a kukri, yikes. Start stabbing full aerosol cans again like u did in your old videos!😄
yeah, i can try!
Cold steel or this?
Cold Steel Royal Kukri 4 sure!
@@joex you think royal kukri is better than the kukri plus? I mean sure its a bit more expensive but you tested both or should i just stick to the ‚expensive‘ royal one?
😎👍
