A tour of all the cheap Chinese KNIVES that I've bought at TEMU

  • The survival knife is genuinely excellent and useful, and used on camping trips. The rest are impulse buys that sit either in a draw or played with off camera on work Zoom calls, by way of an ADHD fidget toy....

    I put myself through 10 weeks of carrying Temu knives for a series. Christ every single one of them was pretty awful.

    A knife collection in the UK is the same as a gun collection in the U.S LOL

    I'm in the same boat , obviously with our knife laws , I only need a camping knife capable of battoning and fine wood work. I love collecting low end stuff like gerber and crkt. I've never had the bottle to order online from these types of websites 😅 brilliant video 👍

      Thanks very much. I've been getting some really nice stuff from Ali for about 20 quid...

      @WildandWiredUK I can tell , I wouldn't indulge in the clone stuff but the examples you've shown look brilliant for the money. Excellent review keep up the good work 👏

    Wish we had a part number or something. I've looked for an hour and can't even find the first one on Temu.

    It's called jimping. Put a long blade or handle for better grip

    the CRKT scribe I don't think is supposed to be a neck knife it's probably just for a little lanyard

    The last knife is UK legal, but ironically it's not Poland legal, because it is classified as 'blade hidden is innocent-looking things' which is the only restriction there is (like you can buy an OTF and a sword and conceal carry it without any legal problems as long as you don't look suspicious).

      @mannihh5274 6 месяцев назад

      I don't think so, it's clearly nothing else than a slim knife, can't mistake it for anything else - I think, the CRKT-Scribe (#3) is more like a hidden knife

    Interesting and somewhat niche video - tbh you could talk about how well paint was drying and I think I may find it interesting and humorous. Can I ask a bit of kinda knife themed advice - I am looking to go camping and have been collecting very very budget kit for a few months and think I am VERY close to having the amount of kit for a relatively comfortable/safe'ish night in the nature. I don't have any wood processing equipment ie (hatchet; folding saw; knife capable of battoning) so bearing in mind my budget is tiny do you have any tips or advice. Many thanks in advance even if you can't respond thanks for the great video's.

      I made this video because my other Temu knife video is easily the most watched video that I've made! There's clearly a big appetite for knives content, so I thought I'd try - and I think failed....!!
      My main camping knife is the MOD knife, and I need to do a review on it because I love it and it's the best thing since sliced bread for chopping and getting a fire going in the wet. I've got the clone, Kombat UK make one for under 30 quid but as soon as I can afford it, I need to buy the original and review it. There's a n 80 quid slingshot that I've got my eye on come payday..>!!!! Check out the MOD knife....it's a pig but it's indestructible, affordable and totally proven. The only thing it doesn't do is featherstick, but i don't do that anymore now that I use homemade firelighters

    Thanks for showing, got some knives from temu myself.
    How do the ferrorods strike on #1,#2 ? Often times the things from china have quite some content of zinc instead of magnesium and quite 'dirty' rare earth metals, making them spark poorly. With #3 you are absolutely right, but you can hang the belt-clip to a necklace, if you want a neckknife.
    #4 has a thin, flat ground blade, which is too delicate for stabbing IMHO.
    The last one usually is called a 'doctor's knife', used for tracheotomy and similar small surgery tasks.
    I wonder, why you bought so much knives that don't match your requirements - even if they are cheap, a bunch of them totals up to a decent amount of money you could easily buy one or two good knives from.
    'Criminally sharp'? Every knife safe to use in the field has to be razor-sharp, only dull knives are dangerous to the owner - I take EVERY knife to my diamond plates and sharpen, polish and strop them, no matter how sharp it comes from the factory, because that makes them MY knife. For bushcraft tasks I prefer the scandi-grind and for food-prep the full flat.
    Instead of feathering I prefer shaving with a crisp 90° spine which gives very fine to medium sized shavings, according to the pressure applied.

    I could be wrong but the first knife gives me vibes of the brand Tops. So maybe it is a Tops clone, not sure though

    I wouldn't buy knives on temu. No telling what type of steel and how tge heat treatment is. Can't trust wat they say either.

      $14 benchmade bugout I got is actually pretty damn good.
      Now for complete honesty I purchased a $14 cheap OTF with the only purpose being I wanted a fidget toy and to take one apart and got sent the bugout clone instead. This blade has been killing it.
      I’m not a big fan of purchasing clones but I understand people buying them to test run a knife.

    @leekelley4701 6 месяцев назад

    What you call a big knife, i think of as a normal size...maybe cuz im American, lol. What u called knives are letter openers to me. I see why u dont carry now, CANNOT FOLD OR LOCK?!?! Good god, knives are just for criminals i guess there. Good review tho.
    Also, i think slingshots have been taken off temu in your country, there were on temu yesterday for me. I got some darts but now i cant find me slingshot...doh

    Hello , I have been following your channel very well. Your channel video topic and quality is very good. You can take your channel even further if you want. But there are some important issues in your channel which will not grow your channel easily if not solved. and your channel SEO score is absolutely zero. this is why your you tube growth is very low. If you can solve this problems your channel will grow very quickly. subscribers ,views , like, comments is very low according to your channel age. and views ,like, comments is also very low according to your subscribers. because channel setting problem and video SEO problem. If these two problems were not present in your channel today you would have got many times better results.

    The knife laws you have to deal with is awful. Here in the US, especially here in Alabama, we basically have no knife laws. We carry whatever we want.
