    Not a survivalist you say? This is some of what he’s accomplished. Yeah jealousy is the root of most of his detractors. He doesn’t ask anybody like him anyway, but he’s accomplished more as a survivalist/ adventurer than anybody mentioned in this thread.
    From 1994-1997, he served in the British Army with 21 SAS.[24]
    On 16 May 1998, Grylls climbed to the summit of Mount Everest in Nepal, 18 months after breaking three vertebrae in a parachuting accident
    1997, Grylls became the youngest Briton to climb Ama Dablam, a peak once described by Sir Edmund Hillary as "unclimbable".[30]
    unassisted crossing of the north Atlantic Ocean, in an open rigid inflatable boat. Grylls and his team traveled in an eleven-metre-long boat and encountered force 8 gale winds with waves breaking over the boat while passing through icebergs in their journey from Halifax, Nova Scotia to John o' Groats, Scotland.[31]
    Grylls created a world record for the highest open-air formal dinner party, which they did under a hot-air balloon at 7,600 metres (25,000 ft), dressed in full mess dress and oxygen masks.[32] To train for the event, he made over 200 parachute jumps.
    In August 2010, Grylls led a team of five to take an ice-breaking rigid-inflatable boat (RIB) through 2,500 miles (4,000 km) of the ice-strewn Northwest Passage.

      Bear grylls tor apart a car to make a shelter (a car is a shelter ).he sucked elephant shit and piss from a snake skin for water got sick and puked 10x as much water as he got .
      Most if not all if the TV phony survival shows and youtube fail to teach about survival poaching ( hunting) .hunting deer at night is the best way to get one an option that shouldn't be over looked !
      But if you want some real survival info .find a book called how to stay alive in the woods by bradford angeirs ( not sure of the spelling ) . All the stuff in the sas and most other so called survival books and shows are taken from his book . It should have been called living in the woods . There's is 10x more stuff in that book than any of the book the youtubers and TV jokes put out .real world stuff .not commie show approved crap .
      Bear grylls showed mostly that you can't survive not how to ! (Politically correct bull shit )

    • @tcl379
      @tcl379 6 лет назад +9

      Dale Carpenter : if it makes you feel better to bash BG go ahead. My first post listed a few stone cold accomplishments of his that very few people can put on a resume. His TV shows are entertainment and that’s all they are, I applaud him for making a good living and taking care of his family. So if you appreciate the way someone else approaches survival skills and generally living their life-- great!

      If your talking about he sucks elephant shit comment ? I wasn't knocking him ( then ) he did suck elephant shit on his show ( and got puking sick).but his show blows any.but all the stupid survival shows suck not just his .
      Those shows are commieized ( palitically correct bull shit )to the point of being useless stupid entertainment ( but there not entertaining)
      But one of bg shows he take a car apart to make a shelter ( a car already is a shelter !). Now they may have told him to do that ? But he's always telling people to drink piss ( if you drank piss before your dehydrated maybe it would help ) if you drink piss when your really dehydrated its moztly salt .if you want to throw up anytime drink really salty water .but if throw up when you are dehydrated it it could be the end !but then again maybe the producer told him to do it .
      Most of the shows show doing risky things that you wouldn't do because of the risk ( even a minor injury could be fatal when you can't go to a doctor ) so you don't take risks risks and i havent seen any of the shows show anyone deciding not to do a risky thing because you are in that situation .
      Non of the sgows even on youtube show the best survival tactic .which is night survival poaching deer .if youre not going to show that even like the first thing to do after shelter and fire then is shit .youtube shows individual skills but not night survival poaching ( because hunting at all is not pc i guess?).

  • @JayWandersOut
    @JayWandersOut 6 лет назад +33

    One of the reasons there was so much hate online for this knife was because the original one had many flaws. They fixed it later but the steel was still subpar and that reputation followed it to this knife since many people are incapable of understanding that this is a different knife. The Ultimate Pro is actually quite good and would be better if they stopped with all that orange. Coodos to you, Lilly, for giving this knife a shot!

    • @rasmusbaltser7761
      @rasmusbaltser7761 4 года назад +2

      Agreed - except for the colour thing. Why would you need a knife to be black or camo unless you’re trying to hide it? Which means you see it as a weapon instead of a tool.
      The orange colour makes it easier to find in the wilderness if lost and it shows that you’re not trying to hide it for whatever reason

    Alot of people love to hate on this knife cause of its designer and older brother (first version), and so I dont think it gets a fair shake. I'm happy to see someone be honest about it and talk about it fairly. I bought one a couple years ago now, and it has performed just fine. No fails. No breakage. Edge and steel held up fine. Plus, it has so really useful features on the sheath and knife itself, the hammer pommel comes to mind which I really like. I wont replace my ESEE's or other knives, but I wont be getting rid of it either. Gave it to my wife as a beginner knife for her and she really likes it and uses it well. Good size for her, comfortable handle and weight. Steel is great for a beginner as well since its not a super steel it wont be too hard to sharpen for them or someone who just has a hard time sharpening knives in general, but is also a decent toughness and holds a decent edge. I really dont have anything bad to say about it. Good review Lilly.

    Lilly,
    I have a Gerber Dime. I keep it sharp and I take care of it otherwise. I carry it almost every day, on the other days I carry a USAF issued Camillus pocket utility knife. In addition I carry a pair of pliers. My favorite pair are about 60 year old Japanese drop forged slip-joint pliers. There is no brand name on the pliers. If I’m going hunting or fishing I carry a Case brand hunting knife that is about 60 years old.
    I have found that the brand is not that important. What is important is how it looks, feels in one’s hand, how easy it is to maintain, and it’s utility.
    When I go to the woods I carry a cruiser axe and a bow saw, and an entrenching tool. My entrenching tool is some Northern European army surplus. A cruiser axe is a single bit axe that is in size between a hatchet and a splitting axe. My entrenching tool has a shovel on one side and a pick on the other. I have learned that the females in my family want a latrine and fresh water for cooking and sanitation and hygiene so finally, I carry a bucket.
    I could go on all day about this but I’ll stop here.
    I enjoy you site.

    I love alot of Gerber products and Bear Grylls he an entertainer and he's fun to watch his survival scenarios are just that they're just scenarios of what could or might happen but in a more dramatic and fantastic way it is after all an action show. I have no doubt that was his skills he could actually survive in a real survival situation for an extended period of time.

    Gerber makes good knives and I like them. I love their company and have one of their knives, and one of their multi-tool kits also and love them.

    The blade and sheath are built for being ambidextrous in mind. You can turn the blade to wear it on the left side or the right side.

    Lilly, can you do a comprehensive comparison video of all of the knives you've used and rank them? Please compare them in a complete way. This knife comes with the integrated sharpener, survival manual, and fire steel in a nice compact design(IMO from looking at it online). All of that right on my belt is appealing to me. I'd like to see how they all line up including price in terms of value, and how they compare against one another from your perspective.

    Hey Lilly,
    Erst mal SUPER Video gute Qualität.... Die beiden Tests haben mir echt weiter geholfen. Ich stehe nämlich noch am Anfang und habe noch an ein gutes Messer für Betoning gesucht, dieses Messer ist mir schon aufgefallen und es ist ja auch nicht so teuer. Ich war schon früher gerne draußen unterwegs, ab und zu mal was geschnitzt und so bin ich jetzt in der Buschcraft Szene gelandet. Ich bin froh deinen Kanal entdeckt zu haben. ( durch Fritz Meinecke) Abo ist da und ich freue mich auf weitere Videos :D
    PS: Ist doch Ok wenn ich deutsch schreibe oder?

    I have the same opinion about the ultimate Pro.
    Its a pretty good performing knife and i love the grip on the handle.
    (Truly), just comparing with Mora or the Esee 4, but still the most comfortable handle of the 3.

    I own many Gerber - Bear Grylls branded - products; three of which are these knives - maybe the larger blade later generation editions. I have had no problems with any of the Gerber products.
    I'm just fortunate to be able to get the Gerber products on discount first when they hit the shelves.

Have you thought of coming to America and doing a " on the road series for different enviroments? You have several fans here. Keep up the great programing.

    I just bought this knife this morning based on this video. If my experience lives up to my expectations because of this video, I am keeping this knife & planning on taking it on my next long hiking trip. I am also going to Alaska this summer & if possible I will be taking it to Alaska. I don't feel comfortable this knife is made in China, but after watching this video & other videos about this knife, I had to put my reservations aside & I wanted to try this knife for myself, I also know I can return it with a full money-back guarantee, if I am not satisfied, so I'm comfortable about that. Thank you for this video.

    I dont know why people are down on Bear, I think hes great and started a great thing, helping people see you can survive in survival situations if you just think. Loved this knife, seems to be a very durable one, enough to get you through the toughest survival situations, thanks for sharing.

      what makes you think it wasn't sponsored. You don't think she actually bought it herself do you! If they give you a free knife to test, thats a sponsor.

    • @88apolo88
      @88apolo88 6 лет назад

      FuzzyCat444 is the link of the fixed message (the very first message you'll find) where she links to the amazon shop to buy it.
      I'll let you guess it by your own.

    A well-designed, well-made tool is the thing: good designers need only to be that. Adventurers of any generation are only that; yet, public figures are both revered and hated. Let the products do the 'talking.' Your review of the knife was honest and fits very well with other reviews by 'hard core' users. This straight edged blade appeals more to me than the earlier blade with serrations right where bush crafters get the best leverage for cutting furz sticks (some say 'fuzz' sticks.) I don't cut a lot of cord in the outdoors. Gerber touts the 'rust-free' nature of the improved steel in your version of the long-lived knife...but they didn't match it against exposure to salt water on your week-long adventure...and even in your application, the oxidation didn't penetrate beyond the surface of the blade. Thanks Lilly for a useful and fair review of a fairly affordable knife.

    Nice video! Thanks. I just discovered you through "the Canadian preper". I've had this knife for almost 2 years now. Yes, it's a very good knife. I did not buy it because of Bear Gryllls but because of the good reviews. Heck, didn't know who Bear G was until researching this knife. (don't have cable).

  • @waynee.2856
    @waynee.2856 6 лет назад +1

    Good video. I've only had one Bear Grylls sponsored product and it was the survival fire starter which I really don't like. I have owned other Gerber made products, 2 multi tools which I love (I bought the first one back in 05' and still use it on the farm toady), a spring assist folding knife, and their E-Tool which is rather nice. As far as the knife styling, I'm not a fan, I prefer my Buffalo Skinner bushcraft knife from PKS. Thanks for another informative video Lilly and thank you for your time and effort. Stay safe.

    Sounds like it shares a stage with the Gerber strong arm. Epic knife for the money
