Great stuff and excellent presentation, as always, my friend! Beautiful knives! Oddly enough, I am one of "those guys" who doesn't really mind a secondary bevel. Many of LT Wright Knives have a micro bevel from their hard buffing and I usually put on a micro bevel with my stropping and ceramic rod use, as well. I like the fact that, IMHO, it seems strengthens the edge. Would be happy to see a axe and saw video, too! -Dave
HighCarbonSteel Love Hey Dave! The Garberg primary bevel is quite rough and jagged. Maybe I just need to polish it up a bit or change the angle slightly as it seems to drag for me. Not a deal breaker for sure. Hmmmm. Those LTW's seem to treat you very well👌. I'll let you know how I make out my friend. Take care. Wade
Great video Wade! Nice overview of the knives! I keep going back and forth about whether I want the Garberg simply because of the microbevel. I am a newbie at knife sharpening so not sure I want to deal with stainless steel and a microbevel
The Wimpy Camper Hey Michelle! Well a microbevel is pretty common actually, they are only slightly more difficult to sharpen. The good thing is you are sharpening less of the edge so it is much faster, make any sense lol?
You're smart to give it some thought before diving in. If I do remove it I will let you know how the Garberg performs and if it was an improvement. Wade
HighCarbonSteel Love I really appreciate you forgiving me. The Autosol is a great tip. I think it’s the same stuff we have in the UK marketed as Solvo-Autosol. I’ve used it for years on motorcycles but I do use it on knives, I put it on a rough/smooth flat strop mixed with jewellers rouge and stone oil. It gets a smooth finish. Thanks for that.
Just watched your video on the Hultafor ok 4. I bought one along with my hula. Precision knife as cheap and cheerful but I’m very very impressed. The ok4 was £14 delivered and the precision was £7. I’ve paid way more for no better. The ok4 keeps an edge for ages and still comes back to hair popping sharp easy. I’m bad with high end flashlights as well and having noticed your first high end purchase of one I can only pray you don’t get that bug as bad as me. My wife looks at me like I’m crazy. I could light up a football stadium 😂
You're so right about the OK4 mate it's a fantastic blade isnt it? Comfy handle and easy to get scary sharp.
Nothing to forgive buddy, nice chatting with you and heres a tip just show your wife every second flashlight and knife you buy lol! 👊🍻
I like that you have kept what you use! As you say, you are not a collector. A nice assortment of tools!
Thanks for watching. I think I should update this video soon. I may have turned into a collector now lol. 👍
Finally ....some one I like as a bushcrafter
Thanks very much my friend. I appreciate you👍
Brother. You totally redeemed yourself! You have great taste when it comes to blades. Have a blessed rest of the week my friend. John
snaponjohn100 Thanks John, you as well!
I have 3 cylinders for each of my 1858’s. I would load them with 25 grains of 3F Triple Seven (I save my real black powder for my flintlocks) with an lubricated Ox-Yoke wad between the power and ball. I store the cylinders in a ziplock bag with desiccant and Oxygen removal pouches to keep them dry. I pulled them down after a year because I shot one cylinder and notice recoil/power was fluctuating. I removed the nipples on one cylinder and dump “some” powder out through the nipple port. It was “clumpy” and then pushed the bullet out with a 1/8 wooden down and found at least half the power completely gummed up.
I stopped doing that after that.
You have some well thought through knives in your collection, thanks for sharing.
Thank you my friend, I appreciate your comment! Take care👍
Perfect set of knifes. I also love the Gransfors Bruks Small Forest Axe. I just purchased one and it should arrive in 2 days. I'm also carving my self a buck saw with a Bahco bowsaw blade. I think my next knife will be a Bark River Bushcrafter 3v.
Thank you! That's some beautiful gear you've purchased, well done, it will serve you well for years! Take care! Wade
Fantastic presentation Woodswalker. Keep them coming good sir. Enjoy the woods.
Montana
That Montana Guy Thank you my friend, it means a lot to me🖒
Great tools, every one of them. I removed the secondary bevel on my Garberg. It does require more frequent stropping with the true zero scandi and it's more prone to edge rolling during hard use, but it is crazy sharp.
John Campbell Thanks John that's good to hear. I think I will try it out with a 0 degree scandi. I understand that a secondary bevel is stronger but it seems to hang up on me as I slice. Thanks for the input my friend!
I really like the style in which you do your videos. I rarely subscribe to bushcraft youtubes but in this case I'm sold. And by rarely I mean you're the first! Keep up the awesome videos Woodswalker!
Wow that's awesome to hear! I appreciate the sub and the great comment!👍
GREAT KIT . THNX FOR SHARIN
You're very welcome, I appreciate the comment!👍
Great review 👍👍 thank you for sharing your time with us !! All the best 🙂
I sincerely appreciate your kind words. Thank you for watching!👊
Super nice set
I love that Deering! The taper on that tang is sick!
Thanks for watching, Johnathon Deering is incredibly talented!👊
love the knives, GB axe goes without saying. I have an HB Kisa, Becker BK2 and Kabar USMC with Leatherman Surge and MUT EOD coupled with Fenix tactical flashlights. Pretty much what I need for hiking.
That sounds like some beautiful gear mu friend! 👍 Thanks for watching, Wade.
Very nice collection you have there. I really like the Deering, just beautiful.
Thank you my friend! I appreciate you stopping by!🖒
Great knives, great video
Thanks for watching and for the comment👍
Beautiful Barkie
Thanks for watching bud👊
Thanks. nice kit!
Moe Cantilever Jr. My pleasure brother. I appreciate the comment👊
Nice and honest review. Some knives I’ve not seen before. Thanks.
PrivateIslandMaine Awesome, I'm glad you saw something new! Thanks for checking out the video. Take care. Wade
You keep your things so clean
Actually I do keep them like new. If you check a recent video I did explaining my routine for cleaning up my axe after a trip. Thanks for watching my friend.
th-cam.com/video/fRsbKExglzc/w-d-xo.html
Axe is always a good choice to bring into the woods...plus one a good video...!!!
Thanks buddy a good axe is always the right choice! I appreciate your support👊
Interesting video. Good tips, especially for beginners.
I have two main "bushcraft" tools:
1. Council Tools Wood-Craft 19" handle axe (N. Carolina, USA)
2. HELLE GT hunting knife with laminated blade (Norway)
Of course my other "tools" are years of camping and knowledge of things like knots, lashings, navigation, emergency shelters, fire building and proper clothing for the season plus hunting and fishing skills. As a former ACA Moving Water instructor and Army ROTC Cadet winter survival instructor I feel very comfortable in the wilds on my own.
Understand, I am a UL backpacker and back country skier using the latest and lightest gear that will get the job done well. Bush craft style camping is something I last did in the late '50s in the Boy Scouts. I can do it well but prefer backpacking stoves, silnylon tents and the lightest of other gear I can find. Synthetic clothes and other stuff is my preference.
Thanks for your input. I actually do both bushcraft and UL backpacking. If you search through some of my vids you will see some of the trails I've done.
It's all good in the woods!
Very nice choice for your bushcraft tools my friend.👍
Toooo much knifes😍 loved that
HaHa thanks for watching buddy!
Most excellent set of tools you got there brother. 👍
Bradley Williams Thank you buddy, I appreciate that. They are all a joy to use. Some purchased and some I received through trades with friends. Thanks for the comment brother Wade
Very sensible knife collection.
Thank you my friend!👍
That's a great collection, I have quite a few knives, but the ones that are always on me in the woods, are the Condor scalper, a Case-2 blade trapper, and a Leatherman wave. Great video , you got a new subscriber!
Thanks very much my friend!I've been thinking about a Case Trapper. Beautiful traditional knife! Take care👊
I can attest that Mora are great knives....I have some I've got and bought second hand that aren't even produced anymore but function quite well still!! I have one I bought new fifteen years ago and I never hesitate to take it along, sure it's no big cleaver but it has always made my meals and cleaned my game. Mora is a fair price for the quality but if lost can be replaced at a fair price unlike other blades (but would be unfortunate to lose of course). I do have more expensive blades but anyone who needs one to perform a Mora will suit them I think.
I couldnt agree more. More expensive knives are not necessarily better. Some are stronger, yes but most Moras can get the job done. Thanks for watching 👍
Awesome knife collection!
Rene Laframboise Thanks bro! Appreciate you stopping by👊
"Let's talk about knives, shall we?" and I'm already all over that like button like fat kids on free smarties!
Nice collection of knives!
Thank you my friend. I appreciate your comment and for watching! Take care👍
A solid collection of tools. I value the Mora 2000 too, I know some people find the handle not wide enough but it suits my hands and that thin blade is tougher than it looks. When the Garberg came out I looked at knives in that price range and chose an Enzo Trapper instead, don't regret my choice as like you I wanted something a little finer (or less plastic) at the time. I'm in Europe at present so will stick to European knives for now as North American knives can be overpriced here (and I like European knives) though looking at your North American knives I'm looking forward to looking into them when I'm there.
The Trapper is a fine knife👍! I own one in curly birch and 01 steel, I use it on my Cowboy Coffee video I think🤔. It's a real classy and classic shape! Thanks for watching and commenting, it's much appreciated!
Excellent vid!
Thank you my friend!
Nice collection and great presentation Wade. I smell Oscars :)
Kal Poulard Lol thanks buddy it's an honour just being nominated🤣
Good stuff there Sir thanks for sharing
Doug Bucher I appreciate the comment my friend 👍. Wade
So back at this, my first vid of yours and happy to subscribe back, awesome collection friend. look forward to more vids and to browse the ones allready made. All The Best Thomas
Thanks for the sub buddy! Hope you like future content👊
Nice collection! Excellent presentation 👍
Thanks buddy I appreciate you watching and commenting🔪👍
Great looking knives and sheaths. Those customs are really awesome. You just can't beat quality tools. Have a great day my friend. Tennessee
Thank you, there are so many talented knife makers out there it's tough to choose just one ! Have a great day as well! Wade
@@Woodswalker1965my custom knife is not a bushcraft knife but could be if pushed into service. It is a Bob Dosier New York special in D2 tool steel. Bob Loveless pattern. Looks like a short Persian dagger. Got it in a trade. I have been collecting knives since before bushcrafting was called camping. Have a great week my friend. Tennessee
They are some nice blades. 👍
Great video. Keep up the hard work. Be blessed
Chasengunz Outdoors Thank you my friend I really do appreciate your kind words, they keep me going. Take care, Wade.
I was content watching fire prep and getting the kettle set over the fire and then the knives came out! Some beautiful tools you got there Wade. They look well used and well cared for. And that Deering!! I want one!! Anyway, I look forward to the axe video and maybe you could pour us a coffee before you end that one bud! Great work!!
Scott S. Outdoors Hey Scott! I use Autosol on my knives to polish the flats. Some guys like patina I like shiny lol. Sno Seal on the leather protects it well.
I did pour a coffee at the end buddy, but like a dummy I accidentally erased that clip ha ha. Catch you later👍
Great knives!
rochet75 Hey thank you! I appreciate you commenting!
Where to start...well...i really wanted to comment on every knife! I love them all! I have the Mora C and the Bob Dustrube Bucksaw. You know I like to make my own knives though. That leather work makes me feel inadequate though. But examples like this I gleam Intel.
As for the other cutting tools...MORE MORE MORE is all I gotta say. Great job buddy.
+2Tiedup Thanks bud! More knife vids from you too👊
Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls
Thanks brother, much appreciated!👊
Hey. Snaponjohn100 here. I missed this one. I got a laugh out of the “snapjohn100”. You have a wonderful collection my friend. That Bark River Aurora is exceptional. I can also tell that you take care of your equipment. Keep up the good work. God bless you. John
Hey buddy nice to hear from you. I hope you're well my friend. I miss your videos it's been a while.. Take care👍
Nice set of knives you have there! Also, love the GB axe. Looking to get one that size!
Outdoor Archives Yes it's a great size whatever brand you choose! I appreciate you watching and especially commenting. Take care.
Nice collection. No bad choices in that pile.
I took the secondary micro bevel from my Mora black and I'm so glad I did it.
I remember your bob. I was looking for it in your line up and wondering if I was confused when it wasn't there. I like its replacement.
Oh .. you know I want to see your axes btw.
+Buck Nash Cool so I'm definitely going to remove the one on the Garberg and test it out. I find it gets hung up a bit. Not a big deal really.
Thanks for commenting bud, always appreciated.👊
I had mora 2000, got the forest instead, same blade different handle, more comfortable for carving an using long term.
Good to know, I've seen the Forest but never held it. Thanks for watching!
Very nice vid and knives, thanks.
I appreciate you're comments. Thanks for watching!
The Bark River looks like a Steak Knife, Its handle is Pretty but looks very Slippery, I have a PKS (From there kit from Self Reliance outfitters, I built with Tigerwood Handles and Orange Scales)
I have a Morakniv that I use on my property. I bought it last year for around $20. It's still pretty sharp, but the blade has micro nicks all over the cutting edge. Glad I only spent $20.
Yes for sure microchips will happen on any knife really. They sharpen out fairly easily at least . Thanks for watching 👍
Well sure, definitely demonstrate the saw and axe. Was looking forward to seeing those THIS TIME, a disappointed you had them on display but not shown!
Thanks very much for watching, this video was about the knives unfortunately. I just posted a axe video if you would like to watch it here.th-cam.com/video/4XAVvd7qfRY/w-d-xo.html
The axe in the video is not this one.
😐
There is just something admiring about other people's gear or collection
Haha I know, I love watching these types of videos too. Thanks for watching mine!👍
Ikr it’s like let me see what he has so maybe I might need to want to have it! But man do I love this hobby. Which I’m a huge knife collector and I go hiking all the time. Love the great outdoors
Thanks for watching and commenting. Take care and enjoy your collection👍
Woodswalker 1965 thank you
Lol .... I was waiting for your review of you hatchet and saw .... I guess I need to look for your review on those items!
Hi Ray, which hatchet and saw were you wanting more info on? I may not have reviewed them
...yet😏
You have some real nice knives Wade. My knife knowledge is poor so I was listening good to this one. I am a Mora fan I did like the look of the Mora Garberg but ultimately your right there is a calling to own a real nice knife....perhaps one day when all my stars are aliened I will see the one that I must have (as long as the wife doesn't find out :-) LOL Thanks Wade really enjoyed this video, regards Matt
Maff T UK Thanks buddy! Yes my CFO disapproves at times haha. Honestly check out Triple X knives here in Canada. Free shipping to the UK.😃 His Sitka model is pretty sweet. Cheers my friend!
Nice collection
Thanks for watching my friend. 👍
Yeah man you should make a video about your axes and saws. I have been wanting to buy a bark river knife for some time now, theres to many to choose from. Great video
Wild Canadian Outdoors Thanks for the support my friend! Glad you liked it. I have some vintage axe heads I'd like to show. Have a great day👊 Wade
Hey Woodswalker1965 great little show and tell I really enjoyed it, Thankyou for showing us your knives!
I need to get out soon.
Looks like the U.K. is closing in on us and very soon you won’t be able to enjoy the freedom of choice!
Hey brother, yup it looks like our knife laws will be getting tighter and tighter. Thanks for stopping by! 👊
it would be cool to see the saws and axes/hatchets you ow and choose to take you into the woods, might give people ideas on what options are out there that they may not have considered or known of. I did not know of the Mora 2000 knife before watching this vid, but now I do!
+Kaylynn Strain OK consider it done😁!
Agreed saw and axe vid please!
I know this is an older video but I really enjoyed it thank you
Thanks Howard, actually I think that's my most popular video. The first( and only lol) one to hit 100000! Take care my friend!
Nice collection my friend that's where I'm headed just a few good woods blades got far to many ! Lol take care brother
kabaruser Thanks for the comment bud. It's nice to have a handful of "users" you enjoy taking in the woods. Take Care Wade
your Moa 2000 blade reminds me of my Kansbol blade, great knife! I do not have the companion or garberg, I do have the 511 basic, I want more Moras. you have a great knife/tool collection
+Kaylynn Strain Yes it looks a lot like the Kansbol. I think your Kansbol is a updated version. How do you like it? Thanks for the comment I appreciate it! Wade
A couple of suggestions for tools you might want to check out…
1) Morakniv Craftline Carpentry Chisel with Carbon Steel Blade, 3.0-Inch, Model Number: M-12250
2) Bahco Heavy Duty Wrecking Knife with Rubberised Handle
2448
Both are similar in that they are chisel knives but the Mora is a true chisel grind and the Bahco is a V chisel. Both are square ended. The blade on the Bahco is slightly longer and more robust. I carry one of them most of the time in the woods for carving projects. I don’t baton wood but, if I did, the Bahco would be my preference.
Thanks for the input👍
Great video, excellent collection. My Mora garberg is arriving this week eh.
That's awesome I think that you will like the Garberg a lot! Thanks for watching my friend. I just reviewed the Garberg a few days ago if you're interested.
th-cam.com/video/s4--svGuWYc/w-d-xo.html
Beautiful knives! I am surprised you don't talk about the DH Russell Grohmann "Canadian" knife, which has his own design. My light bug-out kit blades consist of the D.H. Russell #4 carbon Belt Knife , a Falkniven WM1in VG10 steel as a neck knife, a Gerber Multi-Lock (like it better than my Leatherman), and a Silky Gomboy 240mm. If I have more space I will bring a Condor Carpenters Axe (who make a great Bushcraft axe). I recently bought a Silky Nata 240 to see if it can replace the axe for processing wood. It should be easier to carry, but have not tried it yet. Thanks for the great video.
Thanks a lot buddy. Ya the DH Russell knives are something I don't have any experience with but you're right, they are very unique and highly regarded. Sounds like you have a great collection, well thought out and useful. Take care and thanks for watching 👍
100% want to know about your bush craft saw!
Awesome, email me at woodswalker1965@gmail.com I might be able to hook you up. Thanks for watching my friend!
Nice collection, there is also knive name, Terävä Jääkäripuukko, from company name Varusteleka in Finland it's some must have knive also.
Hello and thanks for watching. Yes I have had my eye on that knife for some time, it looks awesome! Thanks for the recommendation, take care! Wade
Nice knives. I try and not take expensive knives in the bush with me I have a habit of loosing the expensive ones the less expensive ones tend to stick around for ever.
Yes I hear that brother! Thanks for watching👍
Nice video
All good.
Thanks a lot, much appreciated!
Great collection! But I believe there is one other style of bushcraft knife. The kephart style knife. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching and for the great comment my friend.🙏 You're very right a Kephart style knife is a very useful and field tested design. There is also a Pukko style still popular today.
I mentioned that in "modern" bushcraft there are two major styles. The Pukko and Kephart would predate these but makes them no less relevant of course.
I guess I should have been more clear about my reasoning.
Thanks for keeping me on my toes haha. Take care👍
What you think about the forest axe, I got one and like it. I also have the check fiskers from Lowe’s and man it blew me away how well it peeps small logs!! I would recommend giving it a try or maybe review it, they did come out with a newer one I got the old style black and orange but now they have a solid black.
The Fiskars is a great axe, Ive used it a few times. A real good chopper!
You should look up broc knives Davey is an amazing Smith and his knives are a pure joy to use and work with
Thanks for watching and for the tip!
Nice one buddy !
Backcountry King Outdoors Thanks for checking it out!👊
Nice 1 m8, great collection, i would very much struggle to choose out of the last 5 knives,
Thanks my friend. I agree it's tough to choose just one👍
Hey Wade Never Ever feel pressured or bullied into having to record anything for us minions. For that’s all we are minions.
Nice selection. I have a Camper. A classic, A Mora s/s cheapo. Several other pocket knives. A Opinel no8 Garden Knife in s/s as a neck knife. My main knife is a Timber Wolf with curly birch scales. Leather sheaf. Hand made by Gary Mills.
Great Video though. Enjoyed the talk through. Bet the water boiled dry and the fire 🔥 went out. 😂😂😂
Thanks for sharing
Hey brother thanks so much for those kind words, it truly means a lot. You have a nice collection! That Timber Wolf...wow very nice!
Take care my friend👊
Thanks Wade, mines a 2010 when made by Gary Mills. The Timber Wolf in the Bushcraft Store is someone else I believe 👍🏻
Haven’t bought an axe yet. Maybe never will.
😎🤪😎
Nice vid man! Love that triple x knife! 👍🏻 What are those ranger bands you said were on the mora?
Caleb Allen Hey Caleb!👊 Ranger bands are a fancy name for a bicycle inner tube cut up into rings🤣. Pretty useful but nothing really special! Take care.
Great...i enjoyed your vid
Thank you my friend!👍👊
The reason even "modern" backpackers need bush crafting skills is that someday they may not have their nifty UL gear when they are stranded in the wilds and desperately need bush crafting skills to survive and be rescued. Camping SKILLS and your intelligence in using them will give you a backup for when SHTF.
True, knowledge is key when in the outdoors. Thanks for that insight!👍
Everything looks brand new...
Not that it matters ...
You're right, I'm kind of fussy about maintenance. Some guys like patina, I like shiny haha. Take care and thanks for watching!
👍 NICE !
Thanks you very much 👍
Great video
Thanks brother!
Excellent video my friend,great collection of knives.May I ask you why you got rid of your Top's Bob knife.Stay safe Wade.
Good question. I've owned 2 Tops Bob's and liked them both. It just came to a point where I needed to "thin the herd: and try something different. It went to a friend who still owns it. I may get another, one day , I still think it's a good bush knife. Thanks for watching my friend and take care!
Best bet cutting tools for me an axe, a saw, and one reliable knife!
That's a good trio👍
Excellent presentation! And, yes-we want you to tell us about your axe.
Thanks Brian, I've been meaning to put together a video about my axes. I have a lot of them that's for sure. I appreciate you watching buddy👍
Hi Wade, nice collection of blades! I got some catchin' up to do!
Kevin Outdoors Thanks Kevin. Actually I've had to implement a 1 in 1 out rule so I don't accumulate any more lol. Looking forward to your next video!
Woodswalker 1965 I find it hard to stick to that 1 in 1 out policy. I did just sell an hb boys axe last week though. My wife was in shock but happy of course.
+Buck Nash I hear ya lol. Im up to a even dozen on axes, I should get rid of one or two 😶
AMERICA START PRAYING , GOD ALMIGHTY APEARED TO ME AND I WAS AN ATHEIST , THE FUTURE FOR THE WORLD IS LOOKING BAD IF WE DONT DO THE RIGHT STUFF NOW , PRAY ! PRAY ! PRAY ! ... you can listen to god at the youtube channels "trumpetcall of god" and "loveletters from jesus" th-cam.com/video/UNQH0MFyYFw/w-d-xo.html
Hello my friend did you swap your Enzo trapper,I was expecting to see it there.Another excellent video.
Hello my friend. I still have a Trapper in curly birch. I should use it more! Thanks for watching! Wade
Mora Robust, all you all ever need, cheap, solid, replaceable. Batton with it, whittle with it, butcher with it, just plain works.
Yes I agree the Mora's are great I have a few and use them a lot. Great value for sure. Thanks a lot for watching and commenting!
I love knife videos !! You have some nice tools my friend and yes i would like to see a vid on your other cutting tools !. What are your thoughts on A2 steel ? , i almost got my latest knife from Triple X made from it but because i couldn't get much info online about it I stuck with O1.
Great vid and thanks for sharing !
Kijika Life A2 is pretty similar to 01. My understanding is that it's a bit more stain resistant. I'm cool with 01 steel as well. I haven't noticed any big difference actually.
Thanks for checking it out. I enjoyed your last axe/knife video, is that the one you're talking about? Wade
ya it is ( :
Curious, what have you actually used the “saw” blades for?
The saw blades are good for cutting notches in a bowdrill set or for woodcraft projects. To be honest it isn't used a lot but very nice to have at times. Thanks for the question👍
Great items my friend,i always Carry my SAK
Atb
Steve
so steve Thanks Steve! It's amazing how useful that little tool can be right? Thanks for watching buddy. Wade
This isn’t a knock on you or your knives,but Bush crafting started out as a very simple way to enjoy the outdoors. Maybe a couple of good rugged knifes a simple axe and saw and an old military surplus canteen, canteen cup etc.Its popularity has turned it into a multi-million dollar business.Expensive custom made knives,$200 Swiss made axes, titanium cups and canteens.Its bush crafting gone high tech.The woods are turning into the Silicon Valley, and if you don’t or can’t afford the latest and greatest your out.
You're right, very little is needed to be effective out in the woods. You're point is well taken. Lately I have really been enjoying a Mora Companion HD, it's pretty awesome. There is no reason for anyone to be excluded from enjoying the outdoors. You've given me a idea to do a back to basics video, something we all need to do at times.
Great comment, I appreciate your input👊.
Thanks, I’m not trying to be negative, you have a great channel very interesting.
No I understand completely, I agree. Thanks for your insights, take care.👍
Sweden= Swedish. Switzerland or Schweiz =Swiss. Pocket knife from Schweiz and axe from Sweden. And I agree with you. But it is fun watching all the people with their fancy and shiny not used tools though. And l´m not meaning the woodswalker. He´s cool!
Thanks for clarifying that my friend, sorry I made that mistake 😊. I appreciate you watching, greetings from Canada! 👊
These knives are like new.
I’ve used these knives extensively just don’t add up to me. You’ve tried them, yes, with a mind not to damage the factory finish.
It’s a beautiful collection but I’m gonna stick with MY evaluation x
Ok buddy whatever you win!😂
Hey my brother, I’m not out to diss you. I’m probably more like you than you realise. Yes same as you I appreciate workmanship, and the comfort that we get from knowing we have great quality knives etc is a big comfort.
Sure we may never give them an hard time but we know if we did they would cope with it all.
If I’ve thought it so and that’s not the case then please forgive me.
But I’m similar at least I have expensive knives and cheap ones. And yes I can claim to have tried even my dearest knife but I promise you it’s not the one, or ones, that have marks on them.
Love your work bro x
@@davidcarroll2035 No worries brother really. By the way if you really want to polish the flats and bevels on your sharp things check out a product called Autosol. It's a fine polish that leaves a protective coating. It removes scratches and oxidation very easily. Thanks for watching!👊👍
It's owsome... 👌👌
Thanks very much buddy ,I appreciate it!
Anybody that thinks a Mora is 'fragile' has never owned one.
You may 'want' another 'pretty' knife, but the only general knife you 'need' is a Mora. 😁
Very true. A Timex will tell the time but a Omega Speedmaster is way cooler lol.
@@Woodswalker1965 👍
I have fallen out of love with my Garberg ....The grind is not high enough so the relief edge is way to thick, it will also only get worse over time .
I have plans to turn mine into a convex hybrid , gotta get some good water stones for the task .
I have been eyeballing the Tops Brakimo since it came out. They now have two different scale options either rocky Mt tread or the plain scales .
The edge geometry is excellent, a nice high scandi grind, its beautiful.
Thanks for watching and for the comment. Its well thought out! I can see what you mean, it is a bit of a beast actually. I removed the secondary bevel totally, it improved as a slicer but the edge also became a bit fragile of course. A scandi vex would probably work out better. Having said that I still like it a lot, I take it on canoe trips usually since its stainless steel. Thanks again!
"Relief edge" that's your problem, take that secondary bevel off and turn it into a 0 degree scandi and you'll fall back in love.
Do more knife reviews ! Neat
Coming soon my friend👍
That’s a lot of views! No wonder, it’s a great video.
Thanks Bjorn, my most popular I believe. I appreciate you watching👍
Super
Thank you!👍
I watched the whole video just waiting to learn about that cool looking axe. You stopped
jusr short of discussing the axe. Maybe on another video ?
Thanks for watching the entire video Rob. I will do a axe video soon I hope. The one in the video is the Gransfors Bruk Small Forest Axe, probably my most used axe. Take care👍

i’d love to get a fixed blade for camping, id like something a bit bigger than some of the knives you showed, do you have any suggestions?
Thanks for watching my friend. Esee makes some bigger camp knives. Fallkniven makes the S1 and the A1 which are a bit bigger. The Terrava Skrama from Varustaleeka is a bigger chopper. I have a review coming up with a big chopper soon as well. Lots of options out there, just find one that suits you best.👍
