In other news…water is wet and the sun is hot. Jokes aside, I forced myself to EDC’d my belt knife for a year. I did all sorts with it from cooking to bushcraft to dismantling furniture to DIY round the house to general work stuff, card board and pallet straps etc. as you say. It is a bit big and thick. But man is it tough as sh!t. My son cracked a coconut open with it the other day and the coconut husk would wreck most other knife edges but out of curiosity I test the edge and it still sliced paper and shaved without any stropping. Currently looking at the sd1 or operator for edc.
I had my CC out today and ready to buy this knife. I love the looks of that blade and that wood sculpted handle is so great, however you just saved my about 400 dollars because this video shows that blade steel maters and this knife doesn't have good steel. I'll get by with my Chris Reeve Pacifica with that big slab of S30V that can cut all day long better than this Winkler can for 12 minutes. It sure looks nice but performance is still what means the most to me when dropping a few hundred bucks on a collectable knife like this one.
Awesome video, cardboard surprisingly destroys edges fast in my testing. Maybe because the fine sand like particles in the cardboard. Also there’s not many winkler cutting tests so also awesome video thanks.
I know you deal with heaving users, but do you have a reccomendation for a neck knife for me. I would not wear it- I would habd it on the bedroom doorknob for emergency use. I would keep it sharp, but it would not be often used.
Hi Kevin. That cardboard killed that blade! My main uk dealer has these, but they never seem to sell. Very interesting looking knife tho'. Thanks David ✌️ Edit... everything killed that edge! 😂
The crusher is on par with the field knife would have got a crusher in maple tribal went down to monkey edge they were all sold out just went with black Micarta & got the last reg belt knife in maple for bigger light weight edc usually carry the contingency or the blue ridge contingency has a better quick deployment with that pistol grip handle design

That’s awesome! If ya want something tough, it’s definitely a great choice
Man these cut test intros are so epic. Gets me pumped every time!
For real Doc!
Cutting stuff. Real life. Cool. Nice looking knife.

Man I love the Cut TEST VIDEOS!!! BLADE CARTEL !!!!!!
🤘🤘
I EDC my Crusher Belt knife with rubber grip, but I am a real man, and a great WARRIOR!
Haha sounds like it!!
ok warrior good choice on the winkler

You’r right cardboard destroy edge completely even cutter. If it use to cut cardboard, the edge will be destroyed.
I'd just carry it for self-defense. I don't cut much other than food daily so🤷♂️
I don't think the crusher is good for zombies. Maybe the operator? The edge retention on the crusher isn't good
80CRV2 is not an edge holding champion, its fairly tough. Good test video, think it could have been heat treated a bit harder. Thanks
Seems like it, yeah. I’m sure it is super tough though

you could try a demko armiger...they are cheap too
Definitely not an edc , more of an outdoors knife, camping , fishing , hunting , that stuff is more suited for that big thick blade
CRKT Minimalist
It is on sale and looks perfect- I ordered it@@doodysdaggers

You should of got the fuckin blue ridge for an edc or the regular belt knife

I think we can all agree that winklers are good for just about anything but cutting
lol
The crusher was not made for utility
When the knife that was made for utility is named the winkler utility knife
