Another copy-cat knife "test" that starts out with batoning. Kephart would have never used his good hunting knife to split wood. That was axe work back then, and still is today..

Great video of a great knife. I've had it for 8 months. We camp a lot and it's a good companion knife for all my camping tasks. I have the F1 also and its a great knife too, but i prefer the 5 inch blace and the beauty of the Frej. Thanks for all your videos, they're always informative and fun.

You can buy the Joker Nomad 6.5 for the same price as the Condor Pictus in the UK. So not much of a competition methinks

Can someone please explain what's the purpose of a 4mm thick flat grind? It doesn't excel either in food prep because of thickness, or in woodwork because of its blade design that doesn't bite/split. So who is it for? Full tang flat grind looks like marketing to me. Finnish puukko or any other scandi is the way to go. For food prep you don't want more than 2mm thickness otherwise it will split the food instead of slicing. Does it make sense to grab a small axe and a flat grind knife (even some small kitchen ones) just for food prep that's all?

I bought the 14c28n version the other week. I love the knife and steel but was pretty disappointed with the sheath. I had to add a piece of leather inside to the top so it would slide down into the plastic more easily. The sheath is much too thin leather. Oh well. I'll probably have to make my own sheath for it.

It’s a very fun knife (I’ve had it for a few years) and it’s true it’s lighter than a hatchet, but we all know that a knife is no match for a good hatchet and you are going to use a lot more energy trying to do the same tasks with the knife than you would with the hatchet 😏

Fy fan. Ni är ju lika galna som jag. En no 10 är just på väg till mig; flatgrind. Tror också, det är en vanesak. Köpte nyligen en Cudeman Mt-5 flatgrind. Den är nu en av mina favoritknivar, speciellt för curls.. Bitar inte lika mycket som en scandi och gör det lättare att få curls (tycker jag). Men som sagt: tror, det är en vanesak.

I have been wanting to try this brand, but they have not made a model I care for yet. When they do, I will definitely try one out.

I have this knife and agree completely with your conclusions. It's a really, reall nice knife., but not the best for some bushcraft tasks For a more bushcraft-oriented knife from the same maker, give the Enzo Trapper 115 in Scandi grind a try. I just got one in Elmax steel and it's the sharpest out-of-the-box knife I have ever seen, and I own a couple of LT Wright knives. Maybe I just got a good one, but I can't imagine a sharper knife. It's probably a bit small and thin-of-blade to be a great battoner, but it should excel at everything else. Great video! You should have a million subscribers and are my favorite RUclips channel by far. I'd gladly be a Patreon supporter if you offered it.

Are you going to review the Helle Nordlys?

What ferro rod are you using?

Thank you both for the great video! After shopping around and finally watching your video I decided to go with the Nord. I already have a GT from Helle but thought this knife would be more hardy. And why not add to the small herd? Haha Thanks again! Watching you two always puts me in a good mood! Tusen Tak! Vielen Dank! Thanks

I liked your video to. I own several Fällkniven knives: F1 in VG10 and COS, F1 Pro, the NL4 Frey and the U2. In fact I only use the first 2. The Frey is my BBQ knive to show off 😅

It almost looked like propellant igniting lol looks awesome in the dark! ✌🏼

Would you prefer the 14c28 or the sleipner carbon blade on the helle? The carbon blade is also a little thicker.

thanks for another entertaining and informative video, what I'm wondering is why have you gone from liking convex to preferring scandi? Is it because of the ease of getting extreme sharpness or something else? interesting to hear as there are so many who go directly in the opposite direction, scanndi first and convex fan later.

What kinda wood are you making your feathersticks

Would get the modern bowie an have something personally but if you can't even speak English I guess the least of you guys problems rite...huh? 😊😅😢❤

I squared the spine of my garber and found more succes in all uses, it is very good for ferro rod, but also makes amazing wood scraper!

its painful when you (not referring to this knife in the video) see a review of a knife you bought and its not as good as you thought. It teaches me the value of taking my time when researching future purchases. Take your time and shop right, thank you for your videos.

🥰🥰🥰 I absolutely adore my Frej and would never abuse it I've got my F1 for that. Love the video lads 🤩 keep it up 😍

I've never wanted a Helle more than i do right now... Does using that thing make you feel like a viking explorer?

Are you going to test the new Helle Nordlys knife?

Does the design still hold? Well yes it does if you use it for what it's designed for , Horace Kephart and for that matter any of his friends never battened a stick with their knives ever.

Why is batoning more important to you than cutting? Let’s say cutting vegetables, filleting a fish or skinning an animal or cutting a rope? Isn’t flat grind really the allrounder? It can baton and make curls, not as good as a scandi, but it can do other things better.

Perfect thxks

More videos of cooking over the fire using the knives

Great show thanks

Very glad I bought this, it’s one of those bags that seems small at first but actually holds a lot, as long as you’re fine with putting your tent/mat ect on the outside you can fit everything you need for a couple days. it doesn’t look silly having stuff attached to the sides like some wider packs do. But If you want everything inside your bag id get a 50-60 litre.

I have both. Although I enjoy the DBK boys, I like the B1 better. Actually it’s become one of my favorites even compared to “higher end” knives. Only complaint is that I would like the edge to be ground closer to the handle.

Great music video, guys 👍

I have large hands, so the handle on a knife is important to me. Also, living near the sea, stainless is a pre. I must say, this is a beauty, and I love to work with it. Thanks for this video, I enjoyed it a lot. Greets from the Netherlands 🇳🇱, TW.

Excellent! It's probably a bad sign that I've just spent my Saturday night watching "reruns" of your videos, but I had a great evening. Thanks so much for making these videos.

Love this! I probably watched this video five or six times before I ended up ordering my own Frej. It's a lovely knife, probably the nicest I own, and will more than satisfy my beautiful knife needs while I await delivery of a Randall Made Model 25.

Love your show you have another subscriber... the Joker knife is the knife for me

I have the Scandi grind with a curly birch handle. Fantastic knife, great value for m8ney and a super versatile blade.

If you like the Canadian Special, you should give the D.H. Russell Canadian Belt Knife as made by Grohmann a try. It's the knife that the Canadian Special was based on and is one of the most iconic North American outdoor knives. I'd put the Kephart and Nessmuk in the same category as knives designed specifically for outdoor recreation as opposed to general purpose knives that were used for outdoor activities.

09:08 that smile means everything!!!!

Thank you again for an awesome video. I would be interested in your general experience about your favourite grind form for feathersticking. Convex, scandi or "industrial". Maybe you can compare this directly with similar wood? p.s. if there are more caps to win I would like to be part of the raffle.

Is this your favorite knife so far? If not what is?

Awesome! And the song is good

Joker es buena marca, otra de las marcas punteras españolas es Cudeman. Buen vídeo 👍

I own a Joker knife and they are high quality for a great price. Their sheaths are incredible Spanish leather. 🎸🔪

spain not only has beautiful women, but also beautiful knives :D

great video guys you earned my sub 100% I love this knife the worksharp mk2 knife sharpener sharpness this knife into a hair shaving machine

Great company, great knives, great fit and finish, and great price and value!!! have to say that I am very pleased with Spanish knives. Great review and video guys!!! Skåll!!!

I love this channel! You guys are awesome. I buy almost every knife you review. :) I bought the 6.5-inch model. LOVE It.

Excellent video! I have the larger model of this knife with the 6.5" blade and like it a lot. It's one of my favorite big knives and your video highlighted its strong points. What a fabulous channel!

I have the Nomad 6.5, and I love it! I see no reason to think the regular one isn't just a good, minus 1.5 inches in blade length. Joker never ceases tom impress me with the quality of their knives vs the price they go fo.

Thanks for sharing guys! Nice knife!
