SONFAR i'VE GOTTEN THIS SWISS TECH KNIFE AND THE 2000 LUMEN FLASHLIGHLIGHT AND THEYVE BECOME 2OF THE BEST THINGS IVE EVER PURCHASED. GREAT STUFF. ALSO THANKS VA BUSHCRAFTER FOR THIS VID
@@perfectlysureunknown Oh Man, that is a pretty serious looking knife; that handle is out of sight. And I know the blade is sharp enough to cut arm hair. Thanks for dropping by; much appreciated
@thevirginiabushcrafter8833 My experience with the Haltbar has been very positive. It's a heavy knife but feels very high quality in the hand. I have mostly used it in the kitchen to cut up meat and veggies, but it is VG10, which is Japanese chef knife steel, so it performs as expected. The handle is quite righteous, very natural feeling and my favorite thing is how it feels when it gets water on it. The grip is further improved. For $50, I have not seen a fixed blade that can compete with this.
Yeah, that knife feels so good in my hand. Swiss Tech makes some darn good knives, I was totally surprised at the low cost as well. I am glad you like the video. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this video, that’s a nice camp you've found. I commend you on your use of a good pair of leather gloves while using your knife. I've collected way too many scars over the years & now use leather gloves whenever I work with hand tools. The knife appears to be a solid value. Keep the videos coming!
ChuckHoward. Thanks for your support; much appreciated. You've read my mind. I am going to be making a video on the Importance of Wearing Gloves in the Bush. It will be in about two weeks or sooner. And yes, I really like the Swiss Tech Stahlern, it is great and can be used as an EDC. Stay Tuned and Stay Safe.
Always so nice to see you over at Prepper Nation, but i had no idea you had such great content on your channel!! Super awesome video, you made me want to get out in the woods and hone my skills! No time like the present! I'm a new subscriber and I'm looking forward to catching up on your videos... stay safe and ready! 👊🏻💯💪🏻🥰
Hello Paradiseacres, thanks for your Support; much appreciated, and I am so glad you like my channel. Yes, I think it is super important to actually go into the Bush and practice and I learn something every time I do. And if it's working with a tool that I've used before, I still learn something if nothing else, I become more proficient using that tool. Thanks to subbing to my channel as well; it means a lot. Stay Tuned and Stay Safe.
@thevirginiabushcrafter8833 I also find it proves to me which tools are the "two is one, one is none" category. 👊🏻💯💪🏻 You are the real deal and I look forward to learning from you! Stay safe out there in these crazy times.
Enjoyed your video Sir. I too purchased my Swiss Tech + Stahlern a month ago. Hopefully I’ll head to the woods soon. By the way, what brand of boots are you wearing ? Enjoy the woods and be safe. Until next time… Byron / Texas
Hey Byron, thanks for dropping in. I'm glad you like the video. I like my Swiss Tech Stahlern so much that I don't want to take it into the wood; it's so nice. But that's one reason I bought it, to take it into the Bush. I really, really like that knife. My Boots are "Irish Setter". They are Snake Boots and are waterproof. I'll only use them in the summer because of the snakes when walking in the Bush and crossing creeks and stuff. Stay Safe.
Eric, thanks for dropping in; much appreciated. I am in Northern, VA. But it would be nice to Bushcraft in the Blue Ridge, maybe someday, I'm sure. Stay Safe.
Thanks for coming over KCLittleowl, much appreciated. I'm glad you found my channel from Prepper Nation (he is a great guy). And I'm also subbed to your channel as well. Keep it moving. Stay tuned and Stay Safe.
Elizabeth, I am so crazy about that knife that I don't want to hardly use it. But, why purchase and have it if I don't want to use it in the Bush. But it will be in the Bush with me more often. The grip is just awesome, it is sharp, and the sharpness is easily retained just by standing the edges up after using it. Be on the look-out for me using it more. Stay Safe.
I got Stahlern a while back but haven’t got much dirt time with it yet, looks by your video that it’s performing very well, I hope to get back out in the bush soon, just discovered your channel,good video, got you subbed
Thanks for Subbing to my Channel, Alan. Yeah, you are going to like that Stahlern very much; I treasure mine. I really like that you can carry it Scout Carry, it has its own Ferro Rod and a divot on the spine to strike the Ferro Rod, and it comes really sharp. Looking forward to hearing when you use it and waiting to see a video; and I just subbed to your channel as well. Stay Safe.
Like the Bushman spear. I use one as a walking stick also. As for the Stalhern, I got one about 9 months ago when Walmart had the first drop on all the Swiss Tech knives. It's a tough blade and holds an egde very well. However, I do have quite a few gripes about it that they could have easily incorporated and still kept the same price point. The handle is way too blocky and presents hotspots with extended use and is too straight, should be slightly curved for better ergos. The tip is too upswept for a lot of tasks and should be a little more elongated and have a slightly sharper point. The ferro rod is on the wrong side and interferes with the thumb push when drawing the knife and tends to get snagged on clothing. The clip should be moveable, not dedicated to on side and place on the sheath and it is way too loose and the knife tends to spin around when carried on the belt. Also, I do not like the red aluminum accent insert on the handle. They could have extended the tang and kept it a solid piece without the red on it. With all of that being said, it is a very capable blade with good edge retention that can take a beating and hold up to abuse. For the price, it is a very well made and reliable blade and the G10 is very grippy, almost too grippy. With a few modifications it can be made to be an excellent fit in your kit or carry. I ended up putting on oversized burlap micarta scales that are wider and longer than the factory scales and added a couple of finger grooves for better ergos. I also removed the factory clip and sanded the sheath smooth where it mounts and added a Cold Steel small C clip that can be repositioned as desired. I also added a kydex ferro rod holder on the opposite side held in place with chicago screws and slightly flared the factory ferro holder a a thumb ramp fro better drawability.
Hello Gator-357. First of All, I really like your name (Gator-357), it awesome. Yeah, I really like using that walking stick; it serves numerous purposes. And thanks for your comments on the Swiss Tech Stalhern, you've given me some good ideas for some possible modifications. Stay Tuned and Stay Safe.
Thanks for dropping in GunGuy. Yeah, that Cold Steel Bushman works so well. It is a knife, a spear, part of a walking-staff, and a fire starter. Stay Safe.
Peace! New friend/subscriber! Great review! It’s awesome seeing a review based on real application and not just beating away on a blade for entertainment. Looks like a solid buy! Walmart sells a full tang Camillus, titanium bonded, 9.5 inch knife for about 16.00 that’s also pretty solid. I was wondering if you’ve had any experience with that one. Also, your walking stick/spear, is it hand-made? If so, is it a Cold Steel Bushman blade on it? And do you have a video on how you made it? Thanks and Blessings to you and your family!
The Virginia Grown Garden, thanks for dropping in; you are appreciated. Yes, I have the Full Tang Camillus, Titanium Bonded, 9.5-inch knife and I like it so much that I bought another one, I now have two of them. I've also used them in some of my videos. At the time I purchased them, they were $10.00, and they are some very good knives. My walking stick is a closet rod I bought from Home Depot. I cut it down and shaved some of the end off and put the Cold Steel Bushman Spear on it and then put a screw through it to make sure it does not come off if I have to use it. However, I don't have a video on how I made it, but I've used the Ferro Rod that comes with the Sheath. The Walking Sticks allows me to always have two points of contact on the ground at all times. I can also sweep the ground as I walk in the Bush to make sure I don't run into any snakes or step in any holes. Also, it can be used to keep preparators at bay at night and day and it can used as a Defensive Tool against two-legged preparators as well. Stay Tuned and Stay Safe
@@thevirginiabushcrafter8833 Awesome! And thank you again! It’s funny because I was just looking at that Bushman Spear earlier today. I was trying to decide on the Bowie or standard head. I appreciate the information!
I have not started my fire yet, but I know where my hatched is and did go to a store and purchased an Ozark Trail 8" - 10" combination hatch and saw; it also came with a ferral rod. I also ordered a pocket drill. I I really appreciate this video; thank you for sharing, be well, be safe, and be whole.
Thanks for your support, Homesteadinthehood. Yes, for me the hatchet is my most prevalent cutting tool. I believe I know the Ozark Trail 8"-10" combo hatchet and saw with the ferro rod that you have; it is a nice combination and will get the job done. And a pocket drill, excellent. That will serve you very well. I've been wanting to get a pocket drill for a while but just haven't gotten to it yet. But be sure and let me know how the equipment works when you make that fire, I'd really like to see it. Stay Safe.
I recently purchased one these knives. It hits the marks of what I wanted from a knife for my intended purposes at a price point I can tolerate. Ultimately, what sold me was the sheath. Sturdy, if low-end material, it functions well and seems like it will hold up long-term. My problem with "budget" fixed-blade knives is the junk sheath/holster. No matter how good the knife, if the holster is useless, the knife is uncarriable. And if the knife is uncarriable, then it is relegated to taking up space in a tool box/glove compartment/fishing box. Useless for my purposes. AUS 8 is a legitimate blade steel if given the correct cryo/heat treatment. Have you sharpen that knife and if so, what was your experience?
lostcat9lives, Well Said comment. I did not need to sharpen the Swiss Tech Stahlern after using it in the Bush and giving a full review and demonstration; however, a sharp knife is a "safe" knife, and a "dull" knife is a dangerous knife. So, I sharpened it with a 10" Diamond Sharpening Rod and honed the edges with an Accu Sharp Sharpening Steel. It is so sharp now that I can hold it with my thumb and forefinger and with very little pressure, just let the blade slide down and slice paper. I am so glad that knife was gifted to me; otherwise, I would have never known about it. Stay Tuned and most of all Stay Safe.
antilaw, yeah, one thing for sure, it holds an edge. All I did when I got home is wash it, wipe it down with some Remmington Oil, and stand the edges back up with a honing rod; it is ready to go again. Thanks for your Support.
My husband just found you and I went directly to your video, liked and subscribed. This was 2 mins. into the video. Can't wait to see your other videos. ❤️❤️

I was debating between this and the Cold Steel SRK, I did my research but found out that the SRK was not a full tang blade. Also after seeing a few torture tests of each knife and seeing that a couple people are having their SRK’s snap the blade right at the handle I’m really leaning towards the Stahlern. It looks amazing and I’m super excited to get one!
Excellent Radical. But I'm surprised the SRK is not full tang. But the Stahlern is awesome, and it will do anything that any other knife will do; it also depends on the use. Also, the Stahlern is budget friendly. Stay Safe.
@@thevirginiabushcrafter8833 I know I was surprised too as far as what I was seeing they’re a 3/4 tang, what I’m wanting my knife to serve for definitely requires a full tang. Also appreciated you stay safe as well and you just got my Subscription! Happy Crafting from your neighbor to the West! 🔵🟡
@@radicalcoyote3772 Hey Radical, I'm with you. I always carry two full tang knives into the Bush with me. One is a backup that has a four-inch cutting edge and the other is a full tang with a cutting edge up to 10 inches. I want to be prepared as best as I can. Stay Tuned and Stay Safe.
Thank you so much for your Support, Casey. If there is anything in particular that you would like to see, please let me know. I will do my best to oblige. Stay Tuned and Stay Safe.

@@radicalcoyote3772 Hey Radical, I'm with you. I always carry two full tang knives into the Bush with me. One is a backup that has a four-inch cutting edge and the other is a full tang with a cutting edge up to 10 inches. I want to be prepared as best as I can. Stay Tuned and Stay Safe.
Great video Sir! Very informative for a newbie like me.
Glad it was helpful! I was really surprised by the capability and quality of that knife. Thanks for dropping in.
It's nice to see you in the Bush relaxing and fun
Oh yes, it is very relaxing. So how are you doing. I hope all is well.
@@thevirginiabushcrafter8833 I’m doing good thank you 😊

Thank you so much for your Support, Casey. If there is anything in particular that you would like to see, please let me know. I will do my best to oblige. Stay Tuned and Stay Safe.
