  • Опубликовано: 26 сен 2024
  • The Schrade Knives SCHF1 Extreme Survival Knife is one of a line of excellent survival knives that are an improvement on the "Rambo knife" from the movies. This one is forged from a solid piece of SEA-1070 high carbon steel, with a watertight, hollow handle to store small survival gear inside. This is a big, solid, hefty knife. Is it the best survival knife? I'm not sure there is such a thing, but I think this comes pretty close, in my opinion. And the price is pretty good too, around $60 most places.

    The Schrade SCHF1 is a replica of a series of similarly design by Chris Reeve. I believe that Randall did produced the first practical sealed hollow handle knife. The year was 1967 and I just got my notice to report for industion. Thinking that I would no doubt end up in Vietnam, I went shopping for a combat knife (nothing survival in my quest). Abercrombie & Fitch, the old purveyor to requisite for gentleman sportsmen, had two, exactly two, Randall knives: an Arkansas Toothpick and the hollow handle Attack Survival. It wasn't until the early 80's that Chris Reeve came out with the Mark IV, replicate here by Schrade. By the time of Mark IV's introduction, I was out of the army and out of Vietnam. Yet the concept of a hollow handle knife, instilled by Abercrombie & Fitch and Randall more than a decade ago at that time, stayed ingrained in my mind. But the Reeve was too costly even at a civilian's income. The Reeve, with its one-piece construction and sleeker contour, remained a hankering. So when Schrade took pity on me and offered the SCHF1 and F2, I bought one of each. I was finally able to scratch that 20-year itch. Thank you Schrade for the F1 and all the other F's .

      Yeah, the Chris Reeve hollow handle was $300+ a pop, but now they're not in production anymore and have become a very valuable collectors item. Good luck trying to get one as the owners are hard pressed to separate themselves from this beloved knife but not impossible ($$$$).

    A few things I'd like to say about this knife that I really like. 1) All One piece of steel, so full tang from hell. 2) Made of a good carbon steel. 3) Hand Guard ( If you have to fight or stab with it ) 7 inch blade which is a good length for combat, but still falls into the 5-7 inch rule many people put on a bush knife, being as anything smaller or to large becomes hard to utilize. 4) Can strike that fire steel. 5) Has a compartment to store more gear without weakening the knife in anyway.6) Great spear point for penetration if you had to stab ( Most knife fights are a fury of stabing motions so a good tip that can pierce well is very important.) A few things I'd like to touch on. Many people think that by going out and buying a knife like a Becker BK-2 that they have a survival knife in their hands. Noted that the Becker BK2 is a great woodsmen/camp knife, I find it falls short for a survival knife because of its short length, slippery handle and no guard to protect the hand, and the blade is constructed with wood processing in mind with that big fat tip for example. Now would I take a becker out into the woods? Hell yes, its a great woods knife, but a "Survival" knife needs to be a jack of all trades, and pretty effective in those departments. Survival is more then living off the land, it can mean anything from fighting off a wild animal, another person,cutting a seat belt, chopping wood to keep warm ect, my point is it needs to be able to do alot of things and do them well. I think if someone is looking for a blade that can handle many diffrent situations, they should give this a serious look. I apologise that this was so long winded,but I really wanted to elaborate on these points. Thanks for doing this review Bryan. - Stay frosty, stay safe folks.

    This is the most confidence I've seen you exude in any given video. In of itself, that is what drives viewers into a buyer's stance, and allows your sponsors/ vendors to move more product. 'Love your homemade musical score lead, which gives a melancholy, leaves falling, "let's get outside", fall touch to the channel. Your skunk also adds a nice touch of humor. Please give more of your own philosophy, scouting experience, etc. that will translate into inspiring other adults to share, and help educate younger generations, and take electronic devices out of their hands for some personal "relief!" 'Good job!

      Actually, I’m really not trying to “drive viewers into a buyer’s stance”. I started doing reviews because I could never find any that showed me what I wanted to see when making a buying decision. I hope mine are helpful. And it is more fun when I am excited about a product, like this one.

  • @richardalexander5758
    @richardalexander5758 4 года назад

    Good review. I have a SCHF2, and Schrade corrected the sheath strap retention issue with a snap located closer to the guard. I used a heat gun to soften the plastic liner and pinched it down so the blade is held firmly which is easy to do, and makes the knife nicer to carry. The small outside sheath is not detachable on mine, but it fits multi tools just fine, and leaves plenty of room for more usable stuff in the handle.
    I do also happen to own an early Chris Reeve Mark IV which is the same size with a D-2 tool saw-back steel blade, purchased long ago before they became so expensive. For the money the Schrade is totally awesome, and the nylon sheath is really more useful, but I have to say the CR D-2 blade has far better edge retention.

    Wow, this is a mamaluka of a knife! Big, sharp, beautifully designed, perfect fit and finish, and milled out of a single block of 1070 high carbon steel so it is indestructible, I mean bombproof. This is a reproduction of the old Chris Reeve knife called Project 1, and to my eye every bit as beautifully built and finished. The only thing missing is the snooty attitude and about $325 on the price tag. This knife will last more than one lifetime. The only thing you need to do is take that bit set out of the handle (what's up with that?) and put in some paracord, matches, or whatever, oil it regularly, and you got yourself a survival knife forever. I put an oiled piece of cloth in the handle (using T-9 oil) so I have it handy anytime I use the knife. That 1070 is springy and tough, but it can rust. It sharpens to a shaving edge. Great knife I will always own.

    Looks good and is definitely affordable. Been collecting knives for about 35 years now and managed to purchase 3 of his hollow handle knives. Was disappointed when the announcement was made that Chris was stopping their production of these knives. A little concerned that Schrade is making a lot of copies of high quality knives. I have yet to purchase one and evaluate it. Just my humble opinion and I am still learning.

    • @SurvivalOnPurpose
      @SurvivalOnPurpose  8 лет назад

      +Mark Tsunokai I have nothing but good to say about this knife. The thing about Schrade is they make a very good quality knife at a very affordable price that most people can afford. Chris Reeves obviously makes a very high quality knife but the vast majority of average knife users are not going to pay the price for one of his knives. My point is that I don't think Schrade is taking any customers away from him. And I wouldn't call this one a copy, just a very similar design.

    That is just such a good looking knife-it's almost a dagger. I've been eyeballing this a while, not sure why I never looked up a review. They did so much machining on that knife to make it that it's no wonder it costs so much. Like you said, though, the screwdriver set is kinda superfluous. Most multitools, even the cheap ones, have a full bit set with them these days.

    Hi Brian! Nice video, interesting knife. A common complaint with the generic nylon sheaths many knives come with is the retention system. I've been running the accessory pouch flaps through the lanyards ( or the lanyards through the flaps, whatever - same thing), then closing the retentention straps over the lanyard against the handle and everything stays nice and tight. I've mentioned this on posts on other channels but it doesn't't seem to get any traction. Try it and see for yourself. Anyway, keep 'em coming!

    • @SurvivalOnPurpose
      @SurvivalOnPurpose  10 лет назад

      Thanks Michael. It's hard to complain too much about the sheath because it is decent, especially considering the price of the knife. But it probably wouldn't add to the cost to adjust the placement of the retention strap and maybe tweak the plastic insert a little. Having said that, I work in a production environment and sometimes things that sound simple wind up being pretty hard to implement. I have to say, Schrade has been very responsive to feedback from reviews so it's possible they may take a look at these minor issues. Either way, I REALLY like this family of knives. - Bryan

    the screw in the lanyard hole is to hold the metal bar in place so you can put more torque against anything you are working with with your bit set I took the bit set out of my schf2 handle and put some survival gear in the handle and put the bit set in the pouch along with a ferro rod and a mini multi-tool also on the side of the pouch once you get the straps on the back nice and tight you can slip a piece of gear between the sheath and the pouch as long as it has a clip or lanyard this is a real good series of knives and I like them a lot can ya tell??

      if you are carrying this blade as a backup like a lot of people seem to be then keep the tool kit and customize the bit set for your other gear that way if you need to take something apart you'll have the tools you need most people carry a multi tool and between it and this knife you can take just about anything apart you can get socket adapters that fit the handle even sockets in some of the more common sizes that fit it and this is just off the top of my head if you have an urban survival kit defiantly put this knife and tool kit in it even drill bits that will fit the handle ok wow now I need to get the schf1 to add to my collection I have the schf2 and schf1sm and talked myself into another one LOL!!!!!!!!

    Apparently these knives have a handle cap made of aluminium. If so it eliminates them from serious use in the filed. I do live in Africa and run a safari company. It is frequently necessary to use a hammer when setting up a camp for crashing hard soil and small stones and for driving tent pins down into the ground. Sometimes, quite often actually it is also necessary to hammer some car parts and other stuff. I thought o buy several of these knives for my crew but if the cap is made from aluminium in all of them then I am afraid it is yet another - although largely improved) but still - A TOY only.
    In any case if you do know when to get these knives with original but 1070 steel handle caps (apparently some of these knives had or still have such caps) - please do let e know.

      @@SurvivalOnPurpose No I have not because I have just found this knife couple of weeks ago when looking for new knives for my entire safari crew. Aluminium cap may indeed hold well during a video testing but will it hold a year+ on African dessert, bush and savannah ... This is the problem. Knife itself (the idea and the item itself except the cap) seems to be good for someone who runs days across Africa and camps nights under the sky. The handle is great even for keeping antibiotics, anti-malaria tablets and water purification tablets if not the survival kit (We dont need that so much out there anyway but we do need to have some basic first aid stuff always close by). In any case this seemed to be a very good solution to me but with that aluminium cap I am afraid I would need to machine new caps in a year or so -knowing my crew they would use this knife for everything including hammering jeep's bolts and nuts. Can you (or Schrade) guarantee that this cap will stand-up to a very heavy use in Africa? Oh, I wish I had one for testing without having to buy it.

  • @MasterK9Trainer
    @MasterK9Trainer 8 лет назад +1

    I have my own theory on why Schrade included the tools rather than a simple "survival kit" as other companies call them. The addition of a bandage, fish hooks, 5 matches, a few feet of fishing line (monofilament), safety pins and so on costs only pennies and is downright cheap. It's like wrapping paracord around the handle of an inexpensive blade and raising the price. This is something I have read, but it's common sense. The "kit" is usually low quality.
    So the tool and bits are of greater value for the buyer and it's certainly different. We have come to expect innovation, choice and value from Schrade.
    The reason or my theory for including tools is that this would be useful to a technician who needs to fix or assemble electronic equipment and it would appeal to radio operators or possibly pilots or those who gravitate towards "high tech" and extremely sturdy gear.
    Great video of this product.

    The reason the sheath doesn't fit very well is because it wasn't designed for that knife. I have a SCHF9 and it has the identical sheath and it fits great. The front of the handle on the SCHF9 is angled just like the sheath and the way the quillion is located makes it so the strap keep the knife from rising up in the sheath. Here is a link to the SCHF9 in the same sheath. bit.ly/2tZCUTj

    I suspect that the sheath that comes with this knife was designed for a different knife, and they have used it for this one. I have had so many knives that have had sheaths with some kind of design flaw, now as soon as I see something like what you have just revealed, I will not buy one.

Hopefully it’s at least worth that. It seem like the best hollow handle knife for the money. I know you can get Lyle knives or Chris Reeve version but those are in the thousands I guess 120 isn’t too bad. I just hope I didn’t overpay for it. I let the bidding excitement get to me lol.

      Survival On Purpose Ha-Ha, not pretty pricey, they are exceptionally pricey. Several of those out of production Chris Reeve hollow handled knives have climbed to prices that are ridiculous apparently due to an almost cult following. I saw one for sale recently for $1,800. I am tempted to sell mine which is not really one of the more sort after models as I could more than double what I paid for it.
      While not in the same class as a Chris Reeve the knife you reviewed would probably serve a normal user just fine. I just can’t past the serrations. I agree with you that on a “survival” knife they had versatility (and my Project 1 had the serrations), but they are just not for me.

      Well...it's true that most official Boy Scout Camps say no fixed blades, but I don't think that is BSA policy. I have been a Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster and I am pretty sure the "no fixed blade" rules are made at the Camp and Troop level. Personally, I think it is fine for a Scout to have a fixed blade once he has earned his Totin' Chip and demonstrated enough maturity to safely handle a fixed blade.

Last year, 2018, tailor brands was acquired by BTI tools. They're going to continue to make the SCHF1 & 2 but discontinued the two smaller 5" versions.

There is a fat chance "probability" of buying one ($$$$) on shopping sites or estate sales like winning the lottery jackpot. I've read that owners don't even use the knives anymore and keep them in safes while listed on their home owners insurance items. If you find one, do (almost) whatever it takes to get it.
