Heard somewhere in the middle of a deep forest : "Honey ... I looked everywhere in my backpack and I can't find the retro high carbon steel multi hand forged hunting outdoor camping survival straight folding combination tool knife... Do you have it in your bag ?" "Last time I saw the retro high carbon steel multi hand forged hunting outdoor camping survival straight folding combination tool knife, it was on the kitchen table just before we left. I thought you would grab it...". "Oh well... I guess we'll have to manage without the retro high carbon steel multi hand forged hunting outdoor camping survival straight folding combination tool knife.".
That was funny Andy, as a retired knife maker i thought that a ridicules knife but whoever thought up the mechanism must be quite clever, would thought they would put their talent to better use 😊 thanks for sharing it, i liked the sound affects as well look forward to the next one 👍
LOL! absolutely love it! Just had an email response from the manufacturers... They say they have targeted the rather niche market of 'People who are fans of film props, who spend alot of time playing warcraft, while not being particularly concerned for their own safety, and eat alot of soft vegetables' - True story... :-)
That's the best knife in a survival situation if that's the only one you have. Moral of the story: make sure that's not the one you have. Thanks for sharing, keep up the good work!
LOL. A tactical Bottle opener/Vegetable slicer. Thank God you got your beer open. Thanks for sharing this is definitely an unusually ridiculous design.
And now a more serious note : I do actually carry a pair of pruning shears (or a sécateur as the french call it) in the field for two reasons. One is to snip a few branches out ouf the way with as little noise as possible to clear my field of view on an animal. The other is to cut out some branches to get through a log jam too high to clamber over with the canoe doing as little damage as I can to that log jam as they're important elements in river ecology.
Andy, thanks for the fun video! Thanks also for saving us all 16 pounds. "Ridiculous" is right! it is amazing how many things are labelled "survival" or "tactical" that are just pieces of junk. Thanks again for another fun video!
Kent is the man !!!! I cant stop watching his videos always beyond expectations and your one of the reason I started me own channel cant wait to see what you got coming up next
Great video! Would love to see more reviews like this. Particularly from Aliexpress, as they ship worldwide (still relevant to those of us camping in outback Australia!) Keep it up man
What a coincidence! I have "retro high carbon steel multi hand forged hunting outdoor camping survival straight folding combination tool knife" tattooed on my back!
So basically instead of easily cutting vegetables with an actual knife, the manufacturer wants you to spend about ten seconds fiddling around with the "tool" to turn it into some kind of weird vegetable cutter? I think I'll pass. ;)
That is hilarious bro! 😂😂...This contraption is clearly across a Mad Max and Inspector Gadget of a tool. Goodness the entertainment that you bring us. lol...Atleast you seem to had fun with it. 👍🏼😅
I bought some clunker knives similar to that back in the early aughts without researching them. Research is your friend. Thanks for sharing this with us Andy. No one should get sucked in to buying one of those abominations.
hahhaaaa hahaha at 10:47 he laughs at the stupidity of himself cutting carrots . I have tears rolling on my cheek I keep rewinding his laughter ...... re edited I kept rewinding that 10:47 little did I know there was 45 secs of poring tears to follow that time. I lost it ...so funny
Great video. You were honest and used it for a lot of different things to test it. I agree, I don't think it would be a good knife to depend on... Thanks for sharing.
Some engineers can't resist fiddling with things. They tried to actually turn some pruners into a knife. Ruined a good set of pruners, they did. Too bad. Guess it will be a chore to keep the site neat and tidy
El Croc - that curve by the tip would make a reasonable section of blade for skinning & processing hides. ....so gut hook, skinning blade & bottle opener..... but only if we junk the secateur bits & improv a new handle for it🙄🤠👍❗️
Hey Andy! I admire you for even buying that thing, and it's entertaining to watch. Buuuuuut, I probably won't add it to my list of "must have's". 🤣 Take it easy! Roger
Great vid! For me I think that survival knife is more for show and tell rather than for survival(or for collector's item). It is cool nonetheless, but I think I'll stick with my simple knife and sheath.
Have you used the solar tube cookers yet? curious how well they work i have never heard anything bad yet. As far as the knife maybe for gutting and skinning but the rest looked like a struggle
Not sure what percentage of the world's population desperately wishes they had some secateurs to chop up their veges when in possession of a sharp knife, but it's reassuring to know that their needs are now catered for.
You're right, this thing is absolutely ridiculous! I think they intend to sell it primarily to the U.S. - you don't sell any tool to them without a cap lifter - lol Surprisingly well hardened blade though.
A bottle opener and a cord-cutter are totally useless, as every knife does the job. The most important function is missing: The Flyswatter is a must. I would never buy a knife without it.🙂
... holy mother load of weiredness this ´knife´thingy is, right? O.O Wow, never seen anything like it. Thanks for that, Andy. I´m sure you had a lot of fun testing this out...and I hope you didn´t get any serious scratches from using it, mate. Keep up the great work. Cheers from Germany :)

😆 😆 😆
lol
Haha! And you’d manage very well without it too!😂😂😂

"Honestly constable, I'm only carrying this prohibited weapon in preparation for the post Brexit apolcalyptic Zombie invasion". 🤪
Blacktimberw: the, err, secateurs, are optimised for ectoplasm.....
I just about fell out of my chair when you over layed the transformer sound!!!! Keep it up Kent Survival! I am always entertained
I'm going to get one, ideal for dead heading Geraniums and Begonias, before eating my cucumber sandwiches with a beer. I can't wait for summer now!
hahaha, certainly a talking point with friends over for pimms
I can totally see that working out. It would certainly look cooler than my current pair of clippers.
Those Transformer bits really made me laugh out loud. Brilliant. Interesting paper weight. Thanks
Thanks, Andy. I was looking for the perfect tool to baton a cucumber. 🙂
That's the best knife in a survival situation if that's the only one you have. Moral of the story: make sure that's not the one you have.
Thanks for sharing, keep up the good work!
Looks like a Klingon table knife
Wow what a weapon. Looks about as useful as fly wire screens on a submarine
Haha it’s useless 😂😂
Good God what a monstrosity. Excellent find, well done!
wonderfully ridiculous haha
Excellent find? If you found it, yes. If you’d bought it, no. 😂😂😂
This is amazing Kent can't stop watching your videos
LOL. A tactical Bottle opener/Vegetable slicer. Thank God you got your beer open. Thanks for sharing this is definitely an unusually ridiculous design.
You're videos are great! I'm glad you did this one, it was good, there are so many of these crazy knives, and a legit user review is fun to watch.

Johan Timmer - if you're 'stealth camping', using secateurs avoids leaving tell-tale saw dust on the ground & you can work almost silently too 😜👍
Andy, thanks for the fun video! Thanks also for saving us all 16 pounds. "Ridiculous" is right! it is amazing how many things are labelled "survival"
or "tactical" that are just pieces of junk. Thanks again for another fun video!
Looks like something a Klingon would use! Thanks for the videos x
Kent is the man !!!! I cant stop watching his videos always beyond expectations and your one of the reason I started me own channel cant wait to see what you got coming up next
:D thank you very much
I'm guessing that is the last time we'll be seeing that thing. Thanks for showing that so I won't have to waste money on it.
Kent Hicks - I don't even reckon you can get rid of the secateur-bits & make a decent handle for this piece of junk 😡❗️
hi kent please make this into a series. buy the weirdest and cheapest "survival tool" and review it please
Love watching your videos.. so relaxing!
Love your channel, I'm a newbie when it comes to wild camping, and you seem to be quite the man in the know, keep up the good work pal 👍
Great video! Would love to see more reviews like this. Particularly from Aliexpress, as they ship worldwide (still relevant to those of us camping in outback Australia!) Keep it up man
thanks Alex
Love your gear reviews and that was one weird multi function tool thingummy bob!!

The best survival knife I've ever seen.
Congrats on your new medieval torture device, Andy! 🤣 Thanks for saving us from that absurdity.
Does it have a tool to get boy scouts out of horses hooves ?
Or scouts out of the girl guides.✂️
Those Transformers noise 😂👏🏻. Good watch as always Andy. Atb.
That is hilarious bro! 😂😂...This contraption is clearly across a Mad Max and Inspector Gadget of a tool. Goodness the entertainment that you bring us. lol...Atleast you seem to had fun with it. 👍🏼😅
I thoroughly enjoy your videos! Thank you 😊 please keep them coming they are very useful to me!
It's a survival knife if something is chasing you and you throw it at them then keep running !!! Keep them coming Brother I'm watching !
Ah, so the bottle opener is actually a thumb opener as well. Now there's a bit of genius !!!
Well thanks very much for the demonstration. I can take those out of my aliexpress cart now.
that's wicked looking Andy
Haha, that is a great one. Looks like it struggles even for kitchen tasks. This was fun to watch, thanks for sharing.
Thats cool, gadgets and gizmos are fun
I bought some clunker knives similar to that back in the early aughts without researching them. Research is your friend.
Thanks for sharing this with us Andy. No one should get sucked in to buying one of those abominations.
High, the small cordage-cutter is for seat-belts, i think. Kindly fiete
hahhaaaa hahaha at 10:47 he laughs at the stupidity of himself cutting carrots . I have tears rolling on my cheek I keep rewinding his laughter ...... re edited I kept rewinding that 10:47 little did I know there was 45 secs of poring tears to follow that time. I lost it ...so funny
Very entertaining video! Hope you do more gear reviews this year.
Some type of ninja knife. Looks awesome bro
I literally snort-laughed at that knife. 🤣🤣
Funny 😂😂😜🤦♂️... Great Video, thanks man. Greatings from Germany Berry
I actually want.. one great demonstration though fair play brother
jack of all - master of none!
Cheeky chinook at the end great video!
thanks.. a noisy one :p
First impression- some kind of hideous surgical tool that your dentist uses LOL
Great video. You were honest and used it for a lot of different things to test it. I agree, I don't think it would be a good knife to depend on... Thanks for sharing.
Some engineers can't resist fiddling with things. They tried to actually turn some pruners into a knife. Ruined a good set of pruners, they did. Too bad. Guess it will be a chore to keep the site neat and tidy
I have seen those online before, glad I did not waste my money on one. 😬
Nice video Andy 👍. Great review on WHAT not ,to spend your hard earned money on 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Fair and honest review ..Buy a Mora...Good advice mate!
looks good to make some sort of cyberpunk Knive with...
The only thing that thing is good for open a bottle of beer. Thanks for posting. And I still can't figure out what the hell's it for LOL
Kinda sad that the gear mechanism is pretty clever and the engraving is nice. A lot has gone into designing and making it but the result is pants.
Interesting item! Thanks for sharing.
Some glorified pruning sheers lol... Looks cool though!! Cheers brother!!
That may not be the most ridiculous knife I've ever seen. Well, okay, it is. Ha ha!
It's a lawnmower and a knife, lol
It's pretty coil looking, but in the woods if a bear comes you could offer him a trim job
Man alive thats hilariously crap! Great find Andy😁😎
I’m a simple man.
I see Kent advance threw the forest ,
I Drop a like . simple 👍🏽
Hmm. Grind off the bottle openers, remove the junk and the blade is tough. In a new handle worth keeping.
El Croc - that curve by the tip would make a reasonable section of blade for skinning & processing hides. ....so gut hook, skinning blade & bottle opener..... but only if we junk the secateur bits & improv a new handle for it🙄🤠👍❗️
Hey Andy! I admire you for even buying that thing, and it's entertaining to watch. Buuuuuut, I probably won't add it to my list of "must have's". 🤣 Take it easy! Roger
You have to admit, it's better than NO knife! Provided you have matches.
Mole grips with a useless blade that's what it reminded me of, good fun watching you experiment with it. :-)
Great vid! For me I think that survival knife is more for show and tell rather than for survival(or for collector's item). It is cool nonetheless, but I think I'll stick with my simple knife and sheath.
Perhaps just a kitchen tool for car camping? Lo! Thanks for sharing. :)
just the thing when i get lost in the garden.
Another great video by Andy keep the good work up soon be a millionaire
The name looks like something Monty Python would've come up with on Quest.
This has to be the strangest most awkward device I have ever seen
Well it has nice sketching on the blade.
Looks like something out of a Bruce Lee film 👊
Looks like something out the film Predator
Have you used the solar tube cookers yet? curious how well they work i have never heard anything bad yet. As far as the knife maybe for gutting and skinning but the rest looked like a struggle
Not sure what percentage of the world's population desperately wishes they had some secateurs to chop up their veges when in possession of a sharp knife, but it's reassuring to know that their needs are now catered for.
cant get a better review,cheers
Yeah! Think i'l leave that in the shops lol
Looks impressive, looks like something a doctor who baddie would have.
Thanks for the review Andy, I think we can take this as a no? Probably make a good zombie, survival knife!
Love your videos. How about doing some "how to" videos for us that are learning bushcraft? I think you'll be great doing them.
thanks Helen, I did a few how to videos a while back and they just wasn't very popular.. maybe ill give it another try :)
I've tried the ember in the bird nest dry grass bundle,I keep failing at it,I must be doing something wrong.
Looks like a cross between a knife and game shears, only it doesn't look very capable of carrying out either tools tasks.
I accidentally cut one of my fingers off just from watching the video
😂
But will it keel? 😂 *forged in fire reference!!
love a bit of forged in fire :)
You're right, this thing is absolutely ridiculous! I think they intend to sell it primarily to the U.S. - you don't sell any tool to them without a cap lifter - lol
Surprisingly well hardened blade though.
Too complicated for me but don't you just love the word sprocket?
Looks klingonian. Where again did you get it? Asking for a friend.
for a friend aye ! ;) haha link in description
It reminds me of an Asian fighting weapon. Good video.
Coal miners?
Well at least it was entertaining watching you try to use this😁👍
It should be named a Klingon Food preper, main blade kinda looks a bit Klingon!
Seems it would be better for game processing.
Okay then. That was exceptionally odd...
A bottle opener and a cord-cutter are totally useless, as every knife does the job.
The most important function is missing: The Flyswatter is a must. I would never buy a knife without it.🙂
Looks medieval!! SPARTAAAAA!
... holy mother load of weiredness this ´knife´thingy is, right? O.O Wow, never seen anything like it. Thanks for that, Andy. I´m sure you had a lot of fun testing this out...and I hope you didn´t get any serious scratches from using it, mate. Keep up the great work. Cheers from Germany :)
Get yourself a pair of Felcos!
