I hear you ask, why are they more expensive than in the USA and why are a lot of them sold out! In Europe you'll have to pay tax (21% + shipping + administration cost) all this has been paid already by Knives and Tools so you don't have to go trough the hassle. But why are they sold out you ask? There is only 1 of every knife because they are (semi) custom! Just tell those stinky guys at Knives and Tools what you're looking for and they will check if they can order it for you with their next batch!

Great video as always lads. Can I get a pin on this for shits and giggles
can you guys maybe test out some winchester knives
*shits and giggles*
I listen to stand up comedy in the bathroom for shits and giggles!

Totally changed my mind about this. When I started to collect some knifes, I also purchased in the price range of 200-300 Euros. Not too expensive but still hesitated to use them regularly or for intense tasks, because I somehow wanted to take care, not to wear them off etc. Now I realized that a Mora (for example) is good enough for almost anything I do with a knife and it just doesn´t matter if it breaks. You just buy a new one. At least it is a tool.
I just watched about 35 minutes of DBK videos while sitting on the toilet. I only noticed when my butt went numb. I think I have a problem.
hahahaha!
35 min? Bloody beginner

@@gregzeigler3850 great deal!
Only 35? I average 1 hour in the bathroom watching dbk
Mikkie's looking fresh must be all the sun.

Issa Knife .
4,19 mn lol
absolutely majestic.
I was thinking the video will be like dollar knife vs 400 dollar knife but this is a knife talk. Are you guys clickbaiting me :)
The new episode each week is genuinley my favorite part of my week
Thank you for making this video because I see a lot of expensive knives but I dont know if it's worth the money.
Love watching new videos. Big fan from New Zealand. Keep up the hard work
I love how when I first started watching you guys you were sitting on like 10k subs and recently you've just exploded! Love ya boys
Very entertaining. It was a nice conversation and leaves us thinking.
YES YES YES YES. IVE BEEN WAITING ALL WEEK FOR THIS! Dutch bushcraft knives!!! BEST channel for knives!
I love these guys .This channel is what brought me into bushcraft and survival.
Thank you so much guys love all your videos I know this an older video but still very good .
Regards.Outdoors boy
+Outdoors Boy that's awesome to hear !
Hands down favorite TH-cam channel. Can't wait till you guys have millions of subs.
+Luke D thanks a lot luke!
Delightful video, chaps! Have you got your hands on an LT Wright knife yet? Also, Zero Tolerance do Vanadis4 on the 0180, but when I tested the steel, it did well enough, but I don't think they got the most out of it with the grind and heat treat.
Ordered today my MALANIKA PUUKKO CPM4V, birch wood handle, brass bolsters, leather sheat. The price is absolutely ok, I've seen ugly factory knives costing more and with incomparably lower quality. Only thing that makes me suffer is that I'll have to wait 14 months to get it... Yes people, 14 months. But it's really worth the waiting.
+Nessunego hahaha I guess we didn't make the waiting list any smaller
Dutch Bushcraft Knives yes people, you've made this knife even more popular among knife lovers, but it's a knife which deserves the waiting and its success among custom knives lovers.
I love your videos, great job!
you guys are really helping a young knife collector community build on you tube
why people complain? I don't have to buy what you have until I really understand their values and you guys show us worth or not, so I do appreciate what you do. Someday I will buy.
Guys, I really enjoy your videos. They are entertaining as much as they are informative. And by "informative", I mean providing information, not trying to pass opinions off as information. That being said, I do enjoy hearing your opinions as well. Clearly even Maarten & Mickey sometimes have different criteria on what to spend their money on. :-)
I just want to say that you guys keep showing off all these beautiful knives that I cannot afford. I mean... I could afford them if I weren't paying for a house, a car, 2 children, college funds, my wife's visits to the nail salon, gas, and food. LOL
So keep buying those gorgeous knives now while you can!
+Anthony Fister thanks a lot for the kind words Anthony! You people are also making this possible for us! Thanks a lot
I have a custom knife from Dulo knives. It's a copy of a Fallkniven A1 made in Vanadis 4E with G10 (they would have done wood for same price) handles. Very good price for quality workmanship. It's an absolutely wonderful knife, better than an A1 Pro for less than half the price.
Scrapyard Dogfather in SR77 - Fantastic steel and heat treatment which you boys have never used on your channel. Check out Busse Combat (or sister companies like Swamp Rat or Scrapyard), they make some quality knives, usually in limited production runs in different steels than you're used to.
awesome! Duloknives really is awesome!
Dutch Bushcraft Knives can you guys make a video about the norwegian "Sami Knife", its a really good knife used by their military
Was that your A1 with the black g10 handles ? Awesome knife
Yeah over on Svetlozar's channel, it was, well the latest one was (there were others prior to mine). He was really easy to deal with by email during the order process. Going to send him some designs for a new knife soon I think.
Buddha Mack yeah these guys would shit over some INFI steel or even the sr-77 and sr-101.
Enjoyed the video thanks guys
I love seeing a wide range of knives in different prices keep up the good work. That logo popping up though L.M.A.O.
These guys share my views on the art form of knives and I like that
Very informative, what's your opinion of the Norwegian Helle knives
You are totally right about custom made knives. I have one myself (its not a bushcraft knife) and it is a masterpiece. The only "problem" was its price.
I recently saw a video of a tour at Bark River. I was impressed at the level of quality control and how this small operation can produce such fantastic products. I’m not only going to save up for a Featherweight Hunter but also a road trip to Michigan to get it.
I’ve been there, used to live in the Eastern Upper Peninsula. Had to travel to western side for some training once and stopped by the shop. Met Mike Stewart and he was a true gentleman. Was very impressed myself. Well worth the trip if you can ever get over there. 👍🏻
Great vid guys. You covered the whole gamut of knives from inexpensive to expensive. Funny how people get angry and spun up when folks like knives that they don't. I love my Moras and the Jaaripuukkos. They work for the basic things I do when backpacking. I'm in the process of selling my high end knives as I like the ones I just mentioned better.
You guys need to make plans to attend the blade Show in Atlanta next year. Should start a Patreon campaign for that, even talk to some manufacturers to get sponsors.
Best Regards
You two are the Hans and Franz of the knife world.
That was a GREAT VIDEO!!!!!!! Thanks girls.
Awesome! Thanks guys: I learned a lot. :)
I was following Dulo on youtube as he uploaded the videos of your custom knives.Because of you I found this guy in northern Bulgaria and I ordered a knife from him 2 months ago.I'm expecting him to be finishing it anytime now the suspense is killing me.Oh and a completely custom knife with the steels that the guy uses for 150$ is an absolute steal.Cheers
Should be soon, was a couple of months wait for mine too.
Hello from Mauritius island is Rosalie a good brand pls let me know thx you so much you both rock
Great work gentlemen I agree %100.
Impeccable was great word choice. You guys do a great job showing off fixed blades. I own a couple cheaper ones, but I am definitely hyped to move up in the fixed blade world soon.
The problem with the super steel compared to basic 1095 or even USA 420HC is that unless you are reviewing a steel by cutting rope until it duals you really won't ever notice in actual normal working conditions. That is what you guys need to share in a video...
I'm all for buying awesome knives who cares what people buy with their own money that's their business I just think that some folks seriously believe that lesser low cost won't work. I can use my Gerber 420HC Strongarm all day at camp building shelter making feather sticks and batoning kindling and have no issues with edge problems. Will it cut paper at the end NO but one minute on a belt strop and yes it will. Now these awesome high end steels and knives are freaking awesome but in the end its all about ownership and personal wants......
I want an LT WRIGHT GNS some day, will it outperform my Garberg or my Ontario SK5 with basic camp work ??? NO not really BUT I will look freaking awesome while feathersticking and feel like I can build a better shelter😂 but in reality I'm just the same dude doing the same crap I could with my Gerber Strongarm😂
Great video guys. I wanted to thank you for doing the video on the mora 125 years special edition knife. I have been collecting knives for about 20 years now ( I'm 27, so most of my life), and my tastes have progressed towards high end production knives, and customs, but I work in construction and landscaping, so I normally try to carry one nice knife, and one cheaper knife that I don't mind abusing. Well I had been trying to find a fixed blade that I could thrash on instead of my Hinderer that I have been carrying. After watching your video, I was actually able to find one of the exact knives that you featured in the video, and it was only about $45. It has actually become one of my top 5 favorite knives and I have carried it every day since it came in the mail last week. It's not the nicest knife I own by a long shot, but the thing is a great performer, and it's such a simple, light weight knife.....it just works....hard to describe. I would definitely suggest anyone looking for a simple, inexpensive, reliable fixed blade to find one. Last I checked there was still some left on Amazon
again awesome videos! i believe the phrase you are looking for when you describe how cost doubles for small percentage increases of quality is 'point of diminishing returns'. i could be wrong, not 100% sure. btw, you gentlemen make the best videos on youtube.
Has anyone of you a clue what the specs/prices/etc of a KJ Eriksson Jägaren is? Recently got one as a present but i dont know much about it. Thankful for every bit of help because i cant find information about it.
Great video thank you
Awesome video guys, once again you're showing what DBK is all about: knives, knives and more knives.
The 4th knife over at 12:04, is that from Bearded Blade Works?
And a suggestion: you should organize a raffle for one of those beauty's.
Keep it up, and to many more years of DBK, we raise our blades and chop some wood!
That sure is a bearded bladeworks knife! it's awesome!
Hello DBK, thanks for all the great videos! I was wondering if you would recommend a bark river aurora 3v or a dbk knife from dulo? Does the steel hold about the same edge? Thanks!
Dulo has better edge retention if you go with k390 or vanadis 4e
I know a lot of peo hate CFK knives but i bought a gorgeous CFK bushcraft knife d2 steel and I cant believe how fantastic it is. I have tried every type of wood processing, carving and camp chores. the edge just keeps going. I paid less than $50 USD and I cant believe what a great knife I got. I know peo are gonna rip CFK apart but it just goes to show you that you can get a really good knife for less than $200. Love you guys, thanks for the great vids.
WarGrrl3 I'm going to try an get my hands on one then
O.G Garcia go on ebay, if you find a knife you like on buy it now,wait a few days and it will be up for bid so u get a better price. I can make paper thin feathers or the huge curls n baton like crazy and the edge stays razor sharp. Maybe I got lucky but mine is beautiful and FUNCTIONAL.
WarGrrl3 sounds good thanks man. you sold me on it
Great video! I can't wait for you to do a test and review video on that Terava jaakaripuukko!
wait... thee k390 steel knives are HAND MADE!?!??!?!? that steel is harder than MegaMan!!!
Yes, it IS, and i can highly recommend Duloknives, especially in K390, Vanadis4E, Vanadis 8 and of course in Elmax. I own about 60 fixed blade knives, 10 of them are Dulos, some Bark River, and many other Custom knives. But there is no knife like a Dulo knife. They are incredable sharp, full custom made, and the best value you can get for a custom knife.
One of my favorite knives ist the Bark River Springbok First Production Run in CPM3V, but this knife can't compete my Dulos. 😁
@@dermessernerd5898 how much did the gentleman charge you for your dulo knives and how long was the wait. I’m interested in the dulo Leuko laminated k390. I checked out the website but I couldn’t find any prices
@@CarlosLopez-tb4yv , because, they are Custom made, the prices depend in the Steel, the length of your Knives and the shape/ grind in your blade.
My Connor knife in K390 with a blade length of 12 cm and a handle Made of white Corian was about 180 Euro.
My Aury in K390 with tue Same blade length and handle, made of stabilized elder burl, with a convex Grind, was about 200 Euro.
You never fail to entertain us! Keep it up DBK!
Can you make a dedicated video on mora companion heavy duty as well as more of the more knives and maybe some differences between them?
Can you guys do a field test on the Tom Brown tracker!? Love your videos by the way!!
Or schanz wsk
I wish a reviewer would show that the Garberg handle material actually becomes quite grippy and gets a semi tacky feel to it. To many reviews that dont use the knives long enough to see these things over time....I know its hard when ya got a ton of blades like you guys do, putting in the hours on certain blades is darn near impossible. Lots of people talk about it not being the typical rubber stuff they use but IMHO its an excellent cross between wood and micarta and is bomb proof. I've used mine for more than half a year and I gotta say IMO its a perfect knife for crafting and all things survival.
Thanks for letting people know how awesome it is...,,I think if ya guys were able, it would even become more of a winner.
That's why its nice when people comment to tell others their thoughts :)
I would like to see your idea of the best knife for price to performance. That sweet spot between cost and quality.
What knife steel has the best edge retention in the world? Also, how does the performance of the Enzo trapper in elmax (In terms of steel) compare to the performance of the mora garberg and cpm 3v? And how good is the edge retention of12c27?
Great video. Thanks guys. I appreciate that you keep it down on the "theatrical parts" and focus on the actual theme of the video.
Good vid, i want a mora now. question, does mora use the same kind of steel on all their knifes,i cant find any info on it
Thanks DBK!
Hey guys, which model of BRK were you guys showing when talking about them? Thx!!
well im a hobby knifemaker aswell and i can say that its very hard to find powder steel to buy except for rwl34 (atleast in germany) i mostly use 80crv2 and o1 steel because i also can heatbtrest it myself and these steels have a good performance overall but i managed to get some cpm rex m4 from america and an old plate of cpm t 420v which is like cpm s90v nowadays. but yeah the big point is its really hard to get your hands on powder steel and also its like 20 times the price than a simple carbon steel
+Rowen we are aware of this. It's also much more expensive to heat treat some of these steels properly. That's awhy it's hard to find people who can work with it or are willing to work with it.
Really nice Video live every one you are doing!
I'm getting my Mora garberg in a couple of days, I would just pike to thank you for introducing to Mora
Hey mates, great showing of knives!! Awesome!!
Hey @dutchbushcraftknifes I love your videos! You may have gone over it already but I'm curious what kind of firesteel you use I would love to know and I'm sorry I've been watching for a short time so I don't know if you've gone over it.
They have made a video on it bud. Search and you will find. They compare an expensive on to a cheap Chinese made one. They use the cheap one with a homemade hand carved wood handle.
Which Mora should i get ? One under 20€. And do they send sheaths with it?
Another excellent episode guys! Keep up the great work! I will be going to an upcoming "grind in" at Bark River Knives to make my own blade, and I am even more excited after watching this! Any thoughts on Bushcrafter II vs Aurora? Once again, great entertaining and informative video!!!!
+Giovanni I've got no clue about the actual size of the bushcrafter 2 but the original is awesome. The aurora is my favourite not only because of the extra length but also because the blade shape and thickness make it so versatile
Thanks guys. Have you considered reviewing Cudeman knives? The MT-5 or Entresierras?
Great video guys
Speaking of the Malanika puukkos, Danijel doesn't heat treats himself the powder steels you mentioned. He sends the blades off for HT to a laboratory, while he heat treats himself 80CrV2, 52100, n690Co and D2.
+Lamofilo we know but not to worry! Peters heat treatment facility is one of the world's best
I have a Kellam puukko and i LOVE IT!
Guys, on a serious note. Have you tried or thought of trying any Lt wright knives? I have two and think pretty good of them
Another Gem M&M ! Excellent. ! Take Care, Clark
Karesuandokniven hunter 10 is amazing carver and it holds edge very well. The knife has RWL 34 steel. It is a poudersteel that is stainless and is it a very tough steel.
Would you guys recommend the mora 511 or the companion for just simple wood carving like sharpening a stick and feather sticking
+Michael R the mora 511 is thinner so might be better for carving
Wow. Thanks for introducing me to Dulo knives. I didnt know he EXISTED before this video and now, I get to keep myself broke feeding my addiction with these beautiful knives. Who the hell needs electricity? Or FOOD?
+sloanIrrigation hahha!
I will recommend helle norwey and brusletto. Both are from Norway and have a nice quality
Got 2 Dulo knives made of German Elmax steel.The guy is great...he made the knives custom just for me....no one on this planet has got the same ones but me....and he send it all the way to New Zealand....RECOMENDED !!!
Where do you buy the Enzo trapper in Elmax? I can't find them anywhere.
Pls explain the metal sorts and differences
How long did it take for the malanikas to be made and how much did you pay for just one of them?
I learned how to make some cool batons from DBK and would like to learn more fun and usefull things to make from you guys. I'm not a survivalist or much of a Bushcraft but I love knives and like to have reasons to use them 😎
I have to disagree about the mora being a beginner knofe, many old school very experienced bushcraft/camping folks use moras as their go to knife and most used edc knife, it's all about knowing your knife and it's capability, what they can do and not do
You could make a video about those "swingblade" knives like EKA SwingBlade G3
So.... how much do the Malanika knives cost? (Specifically the CPM 4V model)
I tried and failed to contact the knife maker, so I have no idea if the knife is 150 dollars or 1000 dollars
would be cool to review the cold steel srk cpm 3v. would be a bit different in looks and can be used to multiple tasks
Thanks for the video, and info. I still plan to get an bark river as soon as I can 😅😎
+WILL SACKETT you are very welcome Will!
Great video guys. I love watching your videos on cheep knives v.s expensive knives. I beat the crap out of all my knives so cheeper is better. Can you do a review on the bear and sons cutlery stockman. It has been my EDC for 4 years now, for $30 u.s I think its unbeatable. Thanks!
Some brands are cheap and nice tho, mora is a good example. One of my friend recommend opinel, those are quite nice too. And going through his collection, we can really clearly see why some knives are expensive, for example, bastinelli's (well, can't afford that, lol)
2:56 Suomi saatana
You said about Custom Knife Makers. There is a Guy in Mississippi or Louisiana, where he is based. He is on Facebook. His name is Brian Easterling. He is an incredible knife maker. He Does amazing work for really great prices.
Can u test the gerber vital scapel blade knife
I've got the Jaakaripuukko and I love the blade. Even though it costs less I'd take it before I take a Mora Garberg, personally. Both decent but one doesn't outweigh the other in durability, looks, etc. But the Jaakaripuukko has a MUCH better grip and comes with a nicer sheath. Not going to say they're the best knives but they're great.
The garburg is a great choice for its price and performance.
Plz review the cold steel recon 1 tanto
What are your thoughts on the Casstroem K720 carbon steel?
I love you guys! So funny!
LOL- cameo from your girlfriend. That was cold Martin.
Love you guys
I do like Fallkniven knives. Do you have any more to review?
Condor Terrasaur all the way, OR step up to the Terava Jaakari Puukko. PKS (Pathfinder Knife Shop) Scorpion is also very nice. I would like to see a Condor Bushlore with Micarta and 1095 Steel.
Check out the BPS Knives coming out of the Ukraine. His knives will be awesome when he gets some better steel.
After all considerations, the best value is the Mora Companion HD.
Would love to see a review of a Grohmann knife or two. Very popular in my country. Probably because they're a good workhorse for the money with a serious sheath.
Quality costs more. That's just the way the world works.
You boys check out the MSK1 yet?
we have but it's not really our style in terms of looks
Dutch Bushcraft Knives: no problem. Still love and support you guys. Much love form St. Louis, MO. Xoxo
The msk1 is more of a survival knife rather than a bushcraft knife
can you guys make a video about the KM 4000? i know i know it's more like a combat military knife but it's also a very very good survival/bushcraft knife
