I liked your reviews BECAUSE they´re standing out from the mass of other product presentations that only call themselves ´reviews´. Insofar, well done. Only thing I would have added is how you mounted the ferro rod into the titanium cap and why it was wiggling.
thanks for the work you did on this video, it´s appreciated.
Thanks man, I appreciate it! Oh, probably just forgot to include that when editing, I drilled a 3.5mm hole and threaded an M4 thread plus a screw.
Awesomeness in knife making and very thoughtful thorough and entertaining review. Well done!
Good to see you. Good review! You’ve been missed! ❤
Thanks Suzanne :) Missed your comments. Hope you're well!
Honest reviews are hard to come by, thank you! 👍🏻❤️🇺🇸
Thanks!
Nice review! Thank a lot.
Thanks for watching!
I can't comment on the knife as i know nothing about them, but i think the review is fab and I think you give a fair and honest review. Good to see Tref.
Thanks Kim :)
I really like your style of review. Great information and honesty!👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks Jonathan! Glad you liked it.
Love the blade, awesome presentation Mr.!
Thank you! Appreciate it.
Yo brother. Good to see you on here again. That is a cool new look. The whisker are distinguishing.👍🏼😀 Awesome looking knife.
Thanks brother! Started out as a joke but now I'm kinda liking the stash look 😂
@@frostys_bushcraft it looks great on you! You have that wild west look!🤠
@@Mikes_carnivore_journey i was goinf for a Bavarian beerdrinker look but wild west is even better 😂
@@frostys_bushcraft oh yeah! It definitely suits you.
I'm so excited about UG Tools knives! I would like a stealth handle 15 cM bladed model and a floe EDC both in CPM Magnacut 65 HRc.
Floe is my fav pattern so gar but there's another coming out in few weeks and it looks out of this world, really cool.
I never saw such a bushcraft chair! I want to make one from canvas!
It's like half of a hammock and could sleep in it.
@@ssunfish I made one, easy to make and really comfy but this one os from TRC Outdoors 'cause it's featherlight and fits in your pocket. trcoutdoors.com/product/millionaires-chair/
I like that knife. Good review bro. Interesting Shakespeare look. 😮. Lol. Cheers 🍻
Hahaha thanks man!
Very good review. I like your experience with this knife. This model of UG is my favorite. Kind regards from ZGB (by Lawman from forum) [:-)]
Thanks mate! Yeah, mine too, really cool knife.
A great knife from great guys! I bought a few modells and i'm, soooo satisfied with all of them ! The boys changed the knife world! And there will be more modells knifes in the near future! I'm very exited for them! Best Regards from Oldenburg/Germany!
I agree 100%! They're working on se really cool stuff, can't wait to see how it turns out.
Stay frosty!
You too! :)
This does also work with Gerber Strongarm. But yeah I know what's the issue there.
I'm glad you know the whole "jack of all trades" saying 👍
Heard it somewhere a long time ago and it made sense.
Great vid, well shot and thorough review. Cheers mate👍
Thanks Kurt! Cheers!
I see you're from Croatia. I spent my teen years in Germany and most of my friends were Croatian (there are many Croatian people in DE). Always fun times!!!
There's Croatians everywhere... probably more abroad than in Croatia. Sucks but also kinda cool having relatives all over the world.
@@frostys_bushcraft yeah they felt that way too. All I know is we always had a lot of fun.
Hey Frosty! A very great review! I enjoyed it really much! Can you tell me, where you got the firesteeel you mounted on the handle cap? Because it somehow must have some kind of screw at the end, right?
I haven't carried a saw, had a small folding saw I just saw without looking for one, now it's gotten burned in a fire that started in the bed of my pick-up going down the street. I see your use of saw and I want a serious one, but very portable. A sheath saw with a fixed handle, not folding. I saw a saw with a T-shaped handle and so it's a small bit shorter overall length.
Bigger Silky saws are great, smaller ones bend easy and I'd rather ho with Bahco Laplander. Not sure about fixed saws as I never used them.
Knife is really a beast 😉. Cheers!
It really is. Thanks mate!
A great looking knife and a great job of testing it. The only issue I have is the hollow handle could be a source of weakness over time and may fail unlike a full tang where it is a solid piece of steel from one end to the other. Now my question, how is the blade attached to the handle? That should have been mentioned in the review cause that is of some importance.
Thanks and sorry, I was talking about that but must've deleted it in editing. The tang is 2.6cm long if I'm not mistaken, glued and pressed in to the handle, also secured with a screw inside. Handle is hollow but ricasso area is full and has a pocket for the blade. They did a lot of testing and the blade broke before the handle did. They even recommend batonning with a finger guard acting as a wedge and batoning on the ricasso area, but I forgot to show that.
@@frostys_bushcraft Thank you for your reply I appreciate it.
Ruby is great (it's one of my go to touch up and finishing options because of the edge it gives) but it's a 3k stone. It's good for you h ups but if you ever need more than that it's not the best option. Good thing is it'll never really wear out so as long as you don't drop it, it'll last a lifetime (my 1x6 edge pro stone is 5 years old and it's still the same as when I bought it). I think a rod made from Venev diamond would have been cool but it would have to be a special order and probably cost a lot, even more than the 130 euro Ruby one.
Soon they will offer diamond and ruby sharpeners in a budget version with anodised aluminum instead of printed titanium.
I'm interested in this!
Frosty I like the reviews you're doing, But I Hope you'll be getting back to camping and bushcraft Soon!!!!...say HI to Tref !
Thanks Anthony! I will, really soon.
Good review, intersting knife
Thanks mate!
Good stuff amigo!
That's a batone 😅 Now you can use it for the Tiny too😂...greetings from Germany
Next time! :) Thanks mate, hope you're recovering. Saw your last video but my German could be better so didnt't understand much.
Talking more about their small version, but. I think it's aimed more at ultralight hikers than survival bushcraft types. To me weight to performance ratio is everything grams become kilograms after 30 miles walking. There's not many knives on the market that compare, really. There's that speed goat knife and another Rainer in elmax that might compete.
Different tools for different jobs I guess but I wanted to test the small one properly to see how it holds up to some abuse. Defenitely a great hiking option, weighs less than most folding knives and it's reliable, easy to clean, holds an edge and is actually comfy to use. This one, the UniTi, is also really light for it's size.
Hi from South Africa....great review my friend...id like to get that knife
Thank you, greets from Croatia!
Came here from DBK on UG
Hope you'll like it!
I miss the bushcraft camping videos 😢
Me too :) But there's one coming next week, 3-4 day hike over a mountain range.
Nothing beats a deep fitting silent leather sheat...
Clunky plastic is for people doing military larp... (imo)
I love and use both types, with knives and holsters as well.
@@frostys_bushcraft hehe, I prefer the leather, each to their own;)
They use the 3D-printed sheaths because it is really hard to come by leather or Kydex sheaths in larger quantities and because they have so many blade+handle options. I was hesitant at first too, but now I really love the sheath on my tiny with the ulticlip. I still sometimes use the leather sheath from my uniti bushcraft though
What Brand of Jacket ist this ?
It's HelikonTex Liberty jacket.
Thank you for your review.
What is your Thought now 1 year later? Still very good?
@@stefan-D at the moment I have 4 UG-Tools blades and I sold every other knife I had except the Skrama so... yeah, I love them.
@@frostys_bushcraft do you think the magnacut is very sturdy and stable? also drill/break wood?
Schöner Hund! 😃
Hollow handle? Glad you like it........ but no thanks 🤨
Why?
I doubt it was designed to be hollow, but the hollow comes with the construction style of the handle so why not take advantage of it?
Caro amico una volta facevi video dedicati al campeggio ultimamente fai solo video di sponsorizzazione di attrezzature.quando tornerai a campeggiare seriamente
Soon I hope. Just don't have the time for much of anything at the moment.
красивый нож, но рукоять с пеналом- это зря
Why do you think that?
Der Typ pennt ja ein beim reden... 🙈🙄
..way too expensive, absolutely OVERPRIZED!!!
Costs the same as any higher class Banchmade, Fallkniven etc. but has a cool factor, great ergonomics, top end materials and is something new and different. Can't compare this to your 1095 Ka-Bar.
Fällkniven is the same, or would you pay nearly 800€ for a Modern Bowie??? You will get better knives from TRC or even from coldsteel for less more than half the price...
UG TiNy I think it's a cool knive to have because it is small and light, but a bigger knive NEEDS weight to perform well as a chopper, in my opinion...
Greetings✌🏼
@@frostys_bushcraft I don't have a fucking shitty K-bar, in Germany we normally use axes for chopping and splitting...
Not all men are "Rambo's" like U... 😉
@@felixmann7045 No, because I'm not a Fallkniven fan and was not impressed with the knives I had (F1 and A1). TRC knives are in the same price range as far as I know.
As for the weight... yeah, but how much do you actually chop with a knife? I used this one together with Terava Skrama 240 and also WTG Kodiak knife and honestly, Kodiak is useless to me. Big, heavy and can't do any cutting with it. I'd rather bring a lighter knife and something like Silky BigBoy... same weight overall but a lot more options.
@@felixmann7045 the Rambo comment is a pointless mate, not sure why you feel the need to attack me?
Every year I have to make about 40-50 cubic meters of firewood depending on the winter, sawing and splitting. And I do it with an axe like any other normal person. But when I'm out camping I don't really want to carry a 2kg axe to make few hours worth of firewood.
