- The Buck 119 is a very capable knife. I was unsure how it would handle this task, it performed very well. Perhaps on a slow day in the Deer Stand I'll do this again. After hours of carving the S35VN blade is still hair shaving sharp. The Buck 119 Special Pro is an Amazingly Good Knife.

👍 Another carving work of art. I was truly amazed you accomplished this with a Buck 119 - not your typical carving knife. Proves once again that it is the artist, not the tool.
Thank you. Curiosity and a notion that it might be amusing to try with a 119 is what got me started. It went better than expected.
You are truly talented. My wife thought I would hurt myself if I tried that, lol! She also thought that you could sell your work. Great carving!
Thanks. I'm not sure I could compete with the local firewood sellers. They get $5 a bundle here at the state park. At my rate of production it'll be months before I get my first bundle made. 😉
In the right hands, and it’s clearly in the right hands. The 119 is a great knife. Great craftsmanship as always!
This exercise reinforced the appreciation I have for the 119. It really is a great general purpose knife.
@@kirbycreekmo I completely agree.
Very impressive watching you do such intricate carving with a larger size hunting knife. Magnificent work, my friend. And nice music as well. Cheers!
Thank you. It was a fun video to make.
Incredible craftsmanship and talent you have my friend! Thank you for sharing it with us!
Thanks for the encouragement. I'm enjoying it and I might even be improving incrementally. I still have no idea what it'll look like when it's done. My wife thinks they are all the same guy LOL.
How did I miss this… very nice carving!
Take care👍
Thanks 👍
Skills to pay the bills!👍
Thanks again for all of the support.
That was awesome, turned out great!!! Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you. It turned out better than I expected to be able to do with a 119. It was a fun exercise.
Hello, you are an artist with the knife, great work, thanks for showing.
Thank you for the encouragement.
Amazing! Honestly I thought you put the 119 on the list to throw us off! LOL!
😁 The absurdity is what inspired this project. Now your guess/suggestion to use a sharpfinger will have me looking for a suitable branch to give it a go with. I bet it does even better.
That’s extremely impressive you have so much talent unbelievable craftsmanship. Those could sell at a mall kiosk for hundreds of dollars. I just subscribed. THANK YOU. Great job GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY
Very kind of you to say. Thank you. It's a fun exercise and makes for some fancy firewood.
I keep a 119 in my bugout bag. I like it. Bought mine from an old gent at a yard sale. $25. I also carry another full tang fixed blade on my belt. Redundacy. It never hurts. Your carving is amazing. Ive wondered what a man thats good with a larger knife can do.
Good choice, for its size the 119 is pretty light and would make a great backup in a BOB. I was pleased with how well it worked on that exercise. Good all-arounder.
I've never really tried wood carving like that with my 119, but I have with my 110; I'm not any good anyway...lol 🤣You on the other hand have great wood carving skills and you're very talented. 👍This was a very relaxing video to sit, watch and enjoy while I sipped on my coffee. I like your content and please keep up the great work. I just Subbed. Thanks and Cheers!
Thank you very much for the feedback and the Sub. I've enjoyed your content and appearances on the Lives.
That’s amazing work, especially with a 119. The background music is great too
Thank you. The 119 impresses me even more now. Great all-purpose knife.
Awesome work! Good looking dog
Thank you. She's had a rough go in eleven years. She's a good one.
Very nice great work!
Thank you.
très bon travail mon cher ami et à votre prochaine vidéo.
Nice blade design 🇺🇸 🇳🇿
The 119 is awesome.
Just beautiful work I’d love to have the skill to do that!!!!! Nicely done take care my friend 😊
Thanks JKG! I just watched a few YT videos and grabbed a stick out of the yard. Next thing I know I've made enough for half a chess set.
Pretty cool. I need to try doing something like this someday. I have never tried my hand at widdling wood. Thanks for sharing.
You might find it very enjoyable, even meditative.
Man, that is absolutely awesome!!! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
Outstanding work, really enjoyed the video.
Thank you very much! It was a fun experiment. The 119 worked much better than I expected it would.
Beautiful work!!
Thank you very much!
The Buck 119 Pro carries a lot of sticker shock......$200 dollars is a damn expensive knife. But, you are getting a Custom Shop quality knife with the Micarta grip and a much harder S35VN steel blade that holds the sharp edge a lot longer than the standard 119 Special with the 420HC blade. There is a night and day difference with the S35VN blade, as this video clearly shows.
Very cool! It was very calming to watch you work set to that music. Impressive carving skills, especially with that knife. Have you ever used carving knives? I've been whittling since I was a kid with folders and fixed blades, last year I got a beginners flexcut palm and knife set and it blew my mind.
I just started carving woodspirits a few months ago. Plenty yet to learn. What tools are you using?
@TheKirbyCreekOutfit the brand is called Flexcut, I got the beginners set, it comes with a U chisel V chisel both with palm grip, and two blades with large "carving" style handles.
Love it
Thank you.
Wow... just wow...
Sweet
I knew it was the Buck 119 I said it on the shorts hehe
I saw that!
Well done! New sub!
Thank you! I'll be sure to check out your channel.
@@kirbycreekmo would greatly appreciate it! Thanks
🤩
Thanks!
Where can I purchase one of these carvings absolutely wonderful talent brother…
Contact me privately and I can make that happen.
Do you think the 420hc steel would keep an edge shaving sharp like the s35vn?
I like Buck's 420HC. It will take a shaving sharp edge. The difference is that the S35VN will hold the edge longer. The 420HC is very easy to sharpen with every sharpening system I've tried. S35VN (and S30V, MagnaCut etc) sharpen easiest on "diamond" stones. I've also found that compound is needed for stropping the upgraded steels.
I would not shy away from 420, it has some advantages - price, will handle abuse better and is very easy to sharpen. It will handle real world knife tasks and while you are using it the only way to tell the difference while using a 420 or the same blade in an upgraded steel is to stop and look at the blade stamp.
I like and have both. They are both up to whatever I job I put them too. Hope that helps.
Mo! You can play it down, but it takes a gift and talent to see that and rescue that fella from a piece of wood!
Thanks Cornbread. It's a fun endeavor. I'm never sure what I'll find under the bark and my curiosity won't let me stop looking.
Sorry Mo!back to watch again!
I’ve done a Sasquatch that wound up looking like a cross between a barn owl and African spirit totem!😂
Just enjoy watching buddy!
Keep at it. It was almost a year ago I carved my first wood spirit. I was pretty proud of it then, now it makes me wince. This carving too may be the subject of an update video. There are lessons in every carving. It's an enjoyable endeavor that I've found to be relaxing and meditative. My weekends are a bit less productive though.
Sorry for so many comments!
The video was getting to the end and the music changed to Leaning On Your Everlasting Arms!
My grandma and her sister Ester used to sing at church and that was one of the favorites!😁
One of my favorites. I appreciate the feed back.
