- Review on the L.T. Wright GNS. Mine has 3V steel, and a saber grind. I cant think of anything that would make this a better all-round knife. IMO, its "perfect".

Was looking for LT GNS review . i was warmed with word of the day . Thank you Brother
thanx for the review , just purchased a used one from a friend on facebook. flat grind with a convexed edge, and look forward to using it when it arrives in the mail.
Good to see you back!
Good to be back!
So glad youre back! I really appreciate the expertise and the way you state it. Even better, and what I miss just as much, is your word at the end of your videos!
Thanks Bob! I'm glad to be back!
Dude! So glad your back.
Thanks!
Great to see you post a video. Looking forward to more videos if you will be posting more. Glad to hear your family is doing well.
Thanks Jeff!
Really great to see you Drew and to hear you will be doing more on YT. Good looking knife and good review. Thanks for the words at the end. Blessings man.
Thanks bro! God bless
So excited you did another video! Really miss your stuff! I have been thinking about getting a Patriot by L.T. Wright for EDC
thanks man! The patriot looks good. I believe its slightly smaller than the Great Plainsmen... and thats why I went with the GP.
I’ve got the Sabre grind too and I absolutely love it! Best all around field knife I had. Most of my knives are scandi so I just got this for something different and I highly recommend the Sabre grind for anyone think about this knife. Amazing performance.
Glad to see u back man🙏
Thanks bro
Very nice to see you again, Drew. Miss you. I hope everyone is doing as good as posible with Covid. God bless you and your family
Thanks man! We're good to go with the virus... we all got it and it was a big nothing burger for us
Very true about the fit and finish. LT Wright fit and finish is worlds above Bark River. I like bark river designs and their convex grind, but in my opinion, for the price of their knives their fit and finish issues are absolutely unacceptable
Great review brother! LT makes my favorite knives as well. The gns is an all time classic and what I would consider an heirloom while still being an actual user. Sold all my bark rivers and don’t even look at them anymore these days. LT’s exude a genuine quality and spirit the barkies just don’t seem to capture. Great heat treat. The best handles. Great blades. Good people behind the craftsmanship. I couldn’t be a bigger fan. Love the scripture as well. Rock on
Great review and thanks for the message at the end. God bless
Good to see you back brother
Thanks bro!
I just bought a Winkler Belt Knife that I’m eagerly awaiting, but now you have me wanting a GNS!
I have sharpened a few Winklers... they are def a quality blade. I'm sure you'll be happy with it. And I know the struggle of wanting a new one haha!
Yes! God bless and welcome back!
good to be back!
Thanks for the review. More importantly, thank you for the encouragement from Scripture. I sure needed that today. Been looking at the GNS for some time. Will make the purchase someday. I hear people talk of purchases second hand or used. I’ve never been able to find any camping/bushcraft items second hand anywhere. If I do see things for sale, they are ready for the trash or people put their special mark up price on them. Once again, thanks for the encouragement!
Great knives and great message at the end.
Good review, and fully agreed. I've used a lot of different outdoor knives, and the GNS in 3V with a saber grind is absolutely one of the best all-arounders one can buy.
Good to see you back! I prefer a more "rounded" point. I have a Bushcrafter in A2, a Genesis in O1 and recently got an Outback in 3v. LT makes great blades!
I was between the Genesis and this... I had some other blades with the more rounded tip, and thats what pointed me towards this. Eventually I want a Genesis or bushcrafter. Have a next Gen inbound
Please, which steel do you like more out in the field, A2 or 3V? I mean, as a user steel and not as "edge retention" CPM quality etc. Just as a user, which one do you like more to use? (Field sharpening, cutting ability (carbides play their role) edge stability (chips or rolls) etc. Thanks in advance
Isn't obvious.from what I write on the comment you replied that I'm a user and not a collector, like so many others indeed in this platform? What's wrong withn you? Did you have a bad childhood or something? I'd respect that, otherwise it's a pity to have an evil heart,trying to spoil other people's mornings.for no reason that's very miserable. @@Butch_Deezlsteak
I have the GNS in 01 tool steal and I love it, it was the first high end knife that I ever purchased. It isn't my go to knife these days but I'll never part with it. LT makes a great product and are VERY competitively priced in my opinion......no they aren't cheap but they are heirloom quality, the JRE sheaths are high quality..... your grandchildren will have a quality tool. Buy once cry once I say...it's true you can get buy with less expensive tools but I personally take great pride and pleasure in using a finely crafted tool. Some of my friends and family mock me over my collecting of fine Swedish axes but again, it really gives you the warm and fuzzies to use a nice tool.
Totally agree! On all points!
Yeah so I had ordered a survive knives gso literally last year and still not gotten it and not that I don't own other knives but I just have very little patience and I was able to grab a LT GP medium in aeb-L as my first knife made by him and while the edge was less than impressive (used knife) I was able to get it exactly where I wanted it in no time at all and it has made me want to start looking into other knives by him the handles are just so comfortable in the hand it is amazing! Great video brother and stay blessed 🙌
Got my survive knife after waiting 5 years
@@puma51921 niiiice lol we're you as impressed as ya hoped you'd be? I wasn't 😕 I actually wanted to return it but they do sell for more on secondary market because they're so hard to actually buy and get so I kept it and went back to my bark river cub in 3v 🤷♂️
@@kevinAuman1 to be honest, I was so pissed of after 5 years I lost all interest in the knife. I will probably sell it.
Great video as always... thank you!
Thanks!
I needed that word brother
glad it helped
I got a 3v Genesis ffg for Christmas. It is my do everything knife. I’ll use a mora for wood carving.
Very nice gift!
Great channel great video.
How about another video on knife sharpening. Do you still use the same system? Thanks and God bless you and your family.
Thanks bro! I'll put it on the list 👍
Mine chips everytime I use it, already sent it back once hoping they would replace it, they just sharpened it and sent it back. Now it sits at the bottom of my drawer and carry my Adventure Sworn classic.
Haven’t had that problem with an LT Wright blade. I did have that issue with a Bark River. Ended up selling it on EBay then and replacing it for an older version with little cost. (Also EBay) Just Say’n
Why sabre vs scandi? I ask because I want an Lt, but I’m not sure which. I’m rough on tools.
I’ve been Scandi guy for years mostly because its easy to sharpen.
Amen!
Great Review man, you should check out the LTWK website and the POUT HOUSE, you will like it, Also the word of the day is great keep it up
Question: I have a GNS Sabre, 3V blade but with Richlite handle (Feels like G-10). I find it to be handle heavy (balance point almost exactly between the first two pins). Would love to know the balance of your Micarta knife...if not to much trouble. Thanks
Mine is a bit handle heavy as well, which I like because it makes the blade feel lighter. Balance point is right between the first two, like yours
Thank You...you saved me from purchasing another GNS...I can now try a different model...lol
Hey I remember you, why did you leave man you’re pretty cool dude
Thanks man... just had a ton going on, and my heart wasn't in it. I just needed a break to focus on some other stuff
@@RevHiker Well I know you know the Lord so that’s the most important thing above anything above money above life itself, you take care come back when you’re ready
Please, do you still use the GNS? Which knife would you suggest at it's category? (Mid size, belt knife)
It's still my favorite fixed blade! I would call it a medium belt knife.
@@RevHiker Thanks man! If only I could get one here in Europe.. I may end up with the White River Ursus 45 If Lamnia doesn't stock the GNS for the rest of the month.Thanks again!!
Had to Laugh...except for the beard, your knife, your outfit even the gear used in this video was so close to how I was set up last weekend for the only snow I’ve had this year. If you tell me you drove a Green Jeep Wrangler to go play in the snow...I’d be floored...
Haha always wanted a Jeep, but no. Ford truck lol
What is app for the word of the day
I come up with the word of the day, but they are sometimes inspired by the verse of the day on the Life Bible app
I own the GNS in high saber too. For me it is really disappointing. Way to thick behind the edge. Featersticking, carving and food preparation is mediocre. They are way better options out there. You really need to believe if you think that knife is perfect.
That's the reason I didn't get it, because I noticed the low saber grinf line. The only maker I know of, who makes saber grinds with super thin behind the edge blades, is the Survive knives with their GSO series. Their GSO 4.7 is a dream knife for me, unfortunately, I live in Greece, which means it's very difficult to geit it here. If I where you,I would either take the knife to a guy who could reprofile it thinner, or try it myself, which is what I have done to all my saber grind knives.
Praise Jesus ....I wasn't expecting a message from the Lord , thanks brother🙏
This knife is also on my list , like you I might have to sale some stuff LOL . I have lots of bibles from doing reviews on my channel I might sale a few. I used to give all of them away 100s of them actually but I had to stop online gifting. ..long story.
Anyways probably gonna give someone an awesome deal and sale them as a batch for way less just to get a nice LT blade.
I have plenty of mid range knives but always wanted a premium blade ... Right now the most expensive knives I have are my Tops Brakimo and Ontario Sk5 . I also have a Becker bk18 Harpoon which I added micarta scales to so its also in that price range of $100 .
I just feel like I'm always chasing the real deal instead of buying the $200 knife I buy a bunch of $60-$100 blades 🤣 That GNS design grabbed my eyes years ago , it just screams comfort. I gotta get one with liners though cause I want mine to be thicker and have a bit of eye candy pop.
Pray that I can find consistent joy in Him and not my circumstances. I hate saying it, but I have anger and depression problems and I really hate that because Jesus called us to love one another.
I will def be praying bro. Just dont fall into the trap of condemning yourself for your struggles. Jesus knew you would have them, and loves you anyway. When you stumble or struggle, ask him to pick you up and help you learn from it. He expects us to forgive 70x7 in a day... how much more will he have mercy on us?! Keep moving forward bro
@@RevHiker Thanks bro! 😄
Yes when you give to others, it allows God to fill you up with Himself! I truly believe this.
❤❤❤
Too heavy handle
VERY NICE VIDEO, EVEN THOUGH, AT THE BEGINNING, YOU DID NOT PUT THE CAMERA PROPERLY, SO, WE COULD NOT SEE, WHAT YOU WERE DOING WITH THE KNIFE, BUT, ANYWAY, IN TOTAL, IT WAS VERY DETAILED. I THINK, THAT LT WRIGHT'S KNIVES FROM USA, THEY ARE PROBABLY, ONE OF THE BEST. THE PROBLEM IS THAT NOBODY BRINGS THEM IN GREECE AND IN GENERAL, THE MOST OF THE STUFF THAT COMES OVER HERE, IT IS EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE. FOR EXAMPLE, THE BENCHMADE 162 BUSHCRAFT COSTS 360€, UNBELIEVABLE. BECAUSE, YOU SPOKE IN THE END, SPIRITUALLY, IT COULD BE NICE TO GO AND VISIT THE GREEK ORTHODOX MONASTERIES IN ARIZONA THAT THE SAINT EFRAIM FROM ARIZONA BUILT THEM AND ALSO, TO READ HIS PROPHECIES. IT COULD BE HELPFUL. GOD BLESS YOU, HAPPY AND BLESSED CHRISTMAS. ΚΥΡΙΕ ΕΛΕΗΣΟΝ.
