"I'm being far too dramatic about trees." That whole bit was like something from Monty Python; hilarious!
Always great content!
what a fine introduction to trees, marvelous.
please imagine science taught with such strong spiritual passion... what a world the world will be
Came for the smashing of coatings, left with a new 2-hour playlist of Epic JRPG music. Nice.
check out the tantal night and day themes from xenoblade chronicles too. They are awesome
Your ode to the trees was poetry, sir. Oh, and that chopping test across the flow of the grain really tests a coating. Yes, folks, our hardwoods are damned hard.
all the better for making coals for the barbie hey mate.....hey mate pass me a Fosters.....and while you about it.....throw another shrimp on too ......😂😉
Agreed! That description was actually quite profound.
Yeah, I was listening with much delight.
The hole in the wallet is probably worth a tragedy play on its own. 😂
Maybe this wood would be a suitable opponent for Advanced Knife Bro
It's gorgeous wood though. It'd make really nice handle scales...
AKB would put an Opinel through the Aussie stump, fo shizzle.
Dude. He’d use the Opinel *as the baton* for a Duk Duk.
@@starkparker16 He would batton a $200+ folder through the stump, thumb stud & all. lol
Australia has the best wood
I've cut some lumber out in Aus, and can confirm jeez that's tough as steel, some of it was like cutting concrete, that is a great test.
The grain on that wood looks so cool I wonder how well it would do for knife handles or tool handles in general
Hmm been thinking about putting new handles on my S1x. The stock scales are a bit boring, but replacing them with wood (even angry Aussie wood) would be problematic. Might use something tough like G10.
That was a really excellent test. Thank you!
Thank you for the testing! I'm looking to pick one of the F1x models up in the next few months, as of yet undecided if coated or not.
Cuts himself every other video, continues the video. what a fucking unit.
Great vid, and Cedric was a perfect ending for it.
Great stuff. Thanks for sharing Pete.
Just bought a S1xb! hearing you also saying in another video that this and the f1 pro are two of your favourites really sold me, I love my F1 Pro!
Makes me want the coated version of one of the X-Series of Fallkniven.
Cedric seems like a bloomin' top dog.🐶
one of your best reviews. thanks
We should be making tank armor out of that wood. Damn. Great review & thanks
An extra thumbs up for sacrificing an appendage to bring us another quality video.
The SRK split that wood up pretty good.
Dude u are hillarious, i love it, u have no filter & that makes me a loyal subber.
Some interesting testing. Nice video !
A very good review. If you cut/open a tin can with a coated knife, you can easily see the qualitiy of the coating.
I scratched my ZT 0620 when doing this. GTX from Tirol.
Gotta love that FE: Three Houses battle music!
Angry trees and blood!?! Another Best Video Ever!
Wow really nice fixed blade!!!
Now there’s the good boy, Cedric!
that wood is no joke !! thx for the test
12:15 The girls from Silky Saws Australia taught me that Australian eucalypts have the most acidic sap of any tree species. Oh, from experience, Eucalyptus oil will remove the sap, but it's way more expensive than WD-40 (which is also mildly acidic btw). I use euc. oil to clean the wood crud from my saws and choppers, and then spray my blades with lanolin oil. As for wear, the coating on my BK2 had a lot of wear and scratches when I got it (the $30 deal). I removed the coating when I refurbished/restored it.
Excellent information mate.
Invest in some liquid bandage. Really great to heal cuts fast and waterproof.
Also I wonder if those white Japanese sponges would clean the blades better. It’s allows you to scrub with just water alone. I think sometimes they refer them as magic sponges. They use up as your use it.
Not even gonna pretend to know what “sprooting” (sprooking?) means. Would love to see you test some ESEE coatings.
InfiniteEnso esee coating is like a hard textured thick paint Much like “Tops knives” but tops Knives feels like sandpaper when new.
Probably a powder coat bake on wrinkle black. Many people use it on harley engines and on car valve covers.
"Spruiking" is the art of aggressively selling something, usually including spinning wild tales about it. In Australia, annoying arseholes outside shops with a microphone yelling at people to come inside are "Spruikers".
@@jameshealy4594 Thanks for this great explanation! Lol made my day man.
Fallkniven kicked asses. Best coating by far.
I know its pretty late to comment on this 3 years after the video, but that is some mean looking wood!!
Man, I want some of that wood to use for knife handles lol
Its redgum. A bitch to work with and not really dence enough for knife making. It can be done if youre keen.
I was just thinking the exact same thing. Possibly make great pistol grips as well. Cheers, Steve
Cedric is a good boy, oldy but a goody
You could make beautiful knife scales out of that redwood ! I am jealous !
😂🤣 “I got my youtuber stump” good 💩!!
Good to see knives are still legal in Australia
Just drop some super glue on the cut.
It will stop the bleeding and give you a coating of armor over the sensitive spot so you can continue in comfort.
Pete, I am duly impressed by the hardness of your morning wood. But stay away from Uncle Randy or he may try to whittle it down.
He may try to rub some of his boiled manseed oil into it. 😂
One fun trick for you to try the next time you clean your knives, use a gel style hand sanitizer. As far as getting sap and wood off of a knife it works exceedingly well for me. I own the S1XB and can attest to how ridiculously hard that coating is. I wanted to take a little bit of that coating off of the blades convex grind, just so I could get a nice shiny blade with a black spine. I had to use a diamond bit dremel to get it off, and I went through 2 of those bits that are now destroyed due to that coating. Overall the S1X is a beast of an outdoor knife. I have put mine through 3 deer and 1 elk, and it goes with me on every camping and packing trip. After all the knives I've used over the years it's nice to finally find that one that does it all.
Thanks Pete.
It might be quicker to baton that wood through the knife....
PS: @13:50 - I saw that coming from a mile off....try making the sponge a taco and the knife the filling...do the sides and the spine all at the same time. :)
Super stuff as usual...Hey I know you're not a bushcraft guy really but I'd be keen to know if the 80+ HRC S1 spine coating allows easy firesteel use? My Bushcraft black is top notch at this so perhaps S1 similar?
More Cedric, please.
Sincerely, Earth
I used a paint strip on mora bushcraft black just to see if it would show steel and no,dlc is the way to go for darkened steel. It did lighten the black a couple shades. Not perfectly clear what falkniven is doing but clearly it is good.
I'd like to see some knife lab testing of the fallkniven bandaids
I cant tell if you are ironically batoning those axes or if you geniunely dont know you can flip the thing over and slam it to let let gravity do its thing!
I really love the blade design on these modern utility combat style knives. I just hate that they don't seem to be made with more traditional handle materials. Then I realized that the new Falkniven is just begging for some after market scales.
The fallkniven bandaids are pretty high quality I’ve found 😂. They really stay on well. Better than the Johnson and Johnson brand
Maybe Fallkniven should make a vaccine too.
@@golDroger88 we have enough of those....but yeah remember when you got a vaccine and you didn't get sick from what you were vaccinated from? crazy concept now. ill take a fallkniven vaccine before any of the bullshit they push 24/7 on social media
@@mforrest1508 I know bro.
I’m gonna buy the Falkniven blued steel A1x.
So cash in !
Well done.
I want a Fallkniven S1X now.
Pete way to channel advanced knife bros. Need a beer in the frame to make it work, a little slurred speech too. The cut and band aid comes pretty close tho.
Old Cedric hey.....keep going old mate!
Perfect review thank u
I've always thought a bit of fine wet and dry sandpaper would polish up those coatings decreasing the friction when cutting
If I coat my knob in black paint will u polish it?
And could we somehow get the cat in on the action..........
Best part of the video... Cedric and the blems
I just realised what that coating looks like. I used to cart hydraulic rams from big machinery (D11 dozers etc) to a Hard-chroming plant in Maryborough QLD (if memory serves correct). There is a type of hard-chroming that looks much like that. Even newly re-hard-chromed rams had a similar sheen. Perhaps that explains the high HRC claims? I guess they don't disclose the chemical structure of the coating on the knife.
@@MrJedi5150 Nice. Thank's for the info @Jedi5150 Looks a lot like Black Hard-Chrome. But yes, tungsten carbide properly bonded to the steel should last a near lifetime. Hard chroming has a limited life when used in the coal industry. Dozer rams that push coal and other hydraulic machinery work in fairly abrasive and corrosive environments. I have some photos of a D11 with a high wide blade (6 metres wide, 2.5 metres high I think) that was used to push coal all day. The entire face of the dozer blade shone with a high polish. I think you can find it on the old Panoramio site if you search Boonal Siding Australia.

Nice test. With not having read all the comments, maybe it is answered, I will dare to take a "shoot from the hip" about, what a Rockwell hardness on 83 could mean for a coating. In my "interpretation" of this, it could mean, that the "layer of molecules and atoms" that sort of "makes or is" the coating will be 1.: more than one atom or molecule (most likely molecules) thick, and have a level above the blade, height, so to say, measurable on a microscopic level, and 2.: that layer of molecules / atoms will be compressed, with a pressure higher than these 83 RWH applied to it. So, if this coating is put on a knife blade with eg. 59 RWH, then if the applied pressure is between the two numbers, like with these "small ball tests", eg. then the material under the coating will give in and compress, but the thickness of the coating layer, so to say, will be unaffected. On the other hand, if the material under the coating is harder than these 83, maybe like 100, just to be a little above, then it is the layer of coating, that will compress, so to say, before the material underneath will be affected. This is my idea of this. Right or wrong? On the other hand, it seems, that the molecular structure of the coating itself might be quite strong, and so it should be able to withstand friction very vell, as your test on this dramatically described wood also shows, in some ways at least.
If others are better informed about this, and how it can be, and I am wrong, please comment on it? Nice day and "wood description" no matter what!!! :o)
The Moras coating looks indicative of that of gun bluing, although I could be wrong..
Hi man your edge retention tests are fairly consistent and scientific but for this test though I think the blade geometry is very important and the wood can't be very consistent medium to cut so I think the test is not completely fair, I still enjoyed the video though thanks.
Man Australia has some gnarly ass wood.
I’m getting the A1X without the coating. You don’t need a coating on stainless steel knife. If you need to go stealth spray on graphite dry lube or something to be tacticool lol
An interesting comparison.
That is some bizarre looking wood! No wonder it's used for fire wood...
Don't mess with penal colony wood... hardened by time served.
Amazing music!
Need to have a chart for band aid soon.
If you haven’t already, try a spray bottle with 1 part orange oil and 9 parts water and that will get the sap right off and make your knives smell nice to, not like car engine.
Minimally quenched tree makes quality Damascus wood
LOVE your Golden :-)
The real lesson here is, DON'T BUILD A FIRE DOWN UNDER...................
I didn't know WD-40 worked for removing sap. I've been using peanut butter like a weirdo lol.
I'm waiting for a S1x to arrive then I going to test the shit out of if (proper field survival and bushcraft tasks), this video made my mind up to go black, first fallkniven with a black blade I'll own.
I always enjoy your content and delivery. Cheers.
Axe is better for sure. I have the GB Scandinavian forest axe. But I suck with it. Battoning is safer, and I don’t need to batton much to get a fire going. Axe is much heavier to Cary as well.
Useing an axe to split wood??!!
Do you even TH-cam bra?
WRONG!!
13:44 "Oh sh@t! I'm getting demonetized!"
Ahh, you got that wood from a Zig Zag tree :-))
My little Australian firewood can't be this ANGRY?!
*Watches the part showing off the wood*
Me: Omg! IT's LIKE SOMEONE ETCHED THE FLAMES OF HELL ON TO A PIECE OF WOOD!!!
Don’t baton an axes like a kid, they work with much greater forces. If the axe is sticking into the lock turn the log up raise the axe and hammer onto a log with the back of the axe, much more forces that press the entire log against the axe head and split it!
Other than for batoning.. i wish the X series were thinner stocks. Kind of a deal breaker for me. Belt knives need to slice well first for me
Was it just the speeding up of the "film" or did the SRK, cheapest knife, split that concrete wood better?
Yeah it seemed like it did. I think the slightly bigger blade helps a lot in this regard.
Im sure the X series coating is good but I love me a Satin A1x Buying thru BladeHQ tomorrow $300 :_)
Damn SRK flew threw some wood..Literally look easier than the axe...lol...nice......I was into the batonin not the coating..haha
Is it a coating or a blueing (heat or liquid) on the Fällkniven and Mora?
There is some difference...
Liquid
Batoned my master hunter threw a piece of purple heart like that, and holy shit the wood twisted in all kinds of directions
Ive found that lighter fluid works best to get tree sap off
That new SRK sk5 looks really cool, I used to have the old one and didn't really care for it with that big useless ricossa but this new one seems much better. Hummmm should I buy one hummmm do I need another belt knife hummmm 😂 need ? NO want ? Yes
Airik1111 just ordered mine today for $100, did you end up getting yours and if so how did it hold up?
A day without blood is like a day without sunshine
Every body probably expected him to cut his hand
Can you make a tip test on the f1x?
Do you have a splitting maul or axe ?
yes
Good old dog 😁
I wish they'd coat the Modern Bowie
That cold steel SRK did not give two shits about that wood! Ied have the SRK out of all three of these if i was looking for a larger blade knife.
Good review. Didn't finish because of the music.
Wonderful test but be careful with the sharp knife 🔪
All knifes should come with at least one of their own company's band aids.
Probably a version of ferro nitrocarburization.
