I’ve owned the Joker Ember for about 6 months. It is bomb proof. Can’t wait to order and try the Nomad 6.5.
I really respect Joker knives. They've been hitting out of the park. Without this channel I never would have heard of them.
Same !!! Have bought 2 now, saving for this Nomad 6.5. Subscribed too!
I'm a hobby knife maker who enjoys making this type of blade. This thing almost looks like a quality handmade knife. Honestly, I wouldn't be able to make this knife and sell it for less than 300 dollars, maybe more depending on the steel and the amount of abrasives I had to go through.
Finally, this is my next buy for sure! It’s looks like Joker watched your Original nomad video and made the change’s you suggested.
I couldn’t wait. I just got mine yesterday, ordered it from Cuchilleria Albacete. It totally rox, it is now my if-I-can-only-have-one-knife knife.
Thank you so much for your channel! You are responsible for my buying of many knives you tested and shown here. Your personal description is also impressive for me. HIS blessing for you and your family!
Cudeman got me on the Spanish knife train with their fit finish, sheaths and the sharpest factory edges I've ever had by long shot. This looks nice.
I really like this knife. This is a very good brand and very affordable. I don’t understand how many overpriced knives sell because people believe marketing.
The funny thing is the stuff they sell as survival knives are usually the knife your least likely to have on you in the event a survival situation happens.
I like to describe knives like this as camping knives. Good at many tasks.
To me survival knife is a knife you have on you all the time. So I like to have one that does certain tasks. Most important is lockback usually a coldsteel.
Just my opinion. I like affordable knife videos. Anything 200+ I’ll never own. I’ll make my own first.
I totally agree. Most of the "good" brands, deliver almost the same at a knife design, asking double or more of a price from Jokers. Also for me the 200 price is the top, except a very very exceptional case every once in two years.
The Joker is a formidable tool. I have considered these knives for some time. Last year, I purchased a Lion Steel T5 and feel it is great all aroud knife. The comfort and grip of the handle is the best of any knife I own.
I didn't like the old sheath design of belt loop with the buttons. The new sheath is a great improvement. The work sharp belt sharpener would be a good choice for maintaining the blade. A very good value for a survival knife, and I may have to invest in another very capable tool.
Great video, and I'm looking forward to it being available for purchase.
What can you say. It is the Joker knife of knives. This thing is insane. I own the Nomad, thanks to you and your channel. This thing is a beast of a knife. I will own one when it hits the US market. I can't wait. I have been contemplating the Tops Granpa Hatchet or the ESEE Gibson axe. However, this thing with the Joker Nessmuck and a Silky and I am golden. The Joker is no Joke. I am so glad that you introduced these knives. I am so glad they changed the sheath as well. I had to superglue the buttons on the original Nomad because I almost lost the thing in the woods. Again Joker hits it out of the park.
Hi ! thanks to you!, I bought the Nomad five inches I loved it!!! even for food processing, super steel that keeps its edge and carves wood easily, now I order the six and a half. I have a lot of knives but less than you!! haha! For the price and quality Joker is hard to beat. I'm a fan of your videos … from Quebec
Glad you are introducing capable knives like the Jokers made outside the US in spite of the loud group demanding US-made knives only for some reason. Really like this bigger Nomad version, seems to be a good allround outdoor tool if you are limited to just one 😎
You bet!
I have always had better luck with European knives then usa knives.
If it was made in America, it would be woke, trans and cost $500 😂
Yep! Done the Ka Bar, Esee, WTG, bark river, and cold Steel thing. Now going Euro ... 😄👍
I have several Joker knives in my collection and I'm definitely putting this one on the want list and will get it when it becomes available in the States.
Oh, snap! I want the big Nomad too, now! I'm still waiting for the regular Nomad to become available again somewhere. Still out of stock everywhere I've looked. But I'll wait. The big Nomad is looking goooood!
Now own several Joker blades (fixed & folding) and love them. Work well and good value. Don't have a Nomad - but this one is on the list!! In relation to convex edges, they're not quite as hard to maintain as some think. In fact, many users often create a small convex edge when attempting to sharpen other grinds. That is, many users find it hard to keep a knife edge at a fixed angle and often rock the blade when moving back & forth. Having said that, you're 100% right - practice on a cheap blade first!! Sharp blades all.
Once again Joker , delivers a very good knife at a very reasonable price, showing the way to the market how it can be possible.
Lol my A.D.D. was going nuts with the intro 😂😂... gotta love Joker knives 💯
Joker does it AGAIN☝️‼️
I like the sharpening tip bit of this video. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Just ordered one...already had several different handles of the 5" version. This looks exactly like what I have been wishing for!
Sweet!!
Where can I find this exact knife ?
@@juankenobi4216 I cant find them anywhere...I think they stopped making them.
Nice and sturdy blade. Very few convex edges out in the market. It's a good thing to find one of them in that size and relatively affordable. Blessings.
The moment when Gideon said the tip cant pierce was some kind of funny.
Damn, you must Wear kevlar to avoid penetration of that shit.
@@jimlahey5623 I used the knife sharp on the Nomad and the tip is just as sharp as a spear point!
Very good presentation of a very promising outdoor knife!
G'day Aaron, I'm extremely pleased to see the release of this one mate. i've been sooooo happy with the 5 incher. I'm with ya though, fair to say its sheath would be much better served with a stitched belt loop like this one.
I do have an issue with the concept of a single tool "survival knife". As you mentioned, there needs to be a hatchet or machete or some other big fella and a saw involved. Could you survive with just a solid 6 1/2 incher ........ yes you COULD, ....... by why would ya ....... + that leaves you with no back up.
Re: sharpening convex knives, @ home I use a cloth backed sandpaper, suitable for steel, on a spare flat floor tile, a scrap piece of glass will also work just the same
Out in the bush I use a Worksharp Field Sharpener too, great unit, but I use it like a file on convex edges. I reckon its easier and more intuitive to "rock" a pocket sharpener over a stationary edge, rather than the other way around, but hey man, what ever works best for you. Cheers Duke.
Received my Nomad 6.5 today! Thanks for the great video and review!
Excellent! Where did you pick it up? Are you in the USA?
@@gideonstactical I am located in MI. Ordered from a website in Spain. Took about 10 days from point of order.
Very Nice Blade! Now I can't wait till its available! Can't wait!
I,am from spain,the joker nomad 6.5 is the Best.
I have 2 joker knives, the Nomad and the Ember and I love them both and yes I had the button snap issue with the sheaths and almost lost my Nomad but I solved it on both with J.B. Weld in the snaps. I promise they wont be coming loose.
I used epoxy. Jb weld is great idea
It has definitely got my interest. Joker has some great value knives.
Looks like a dream knife. It’s definitely going towards the top of the list. 😂
Thanks for the video!
Just take my money, JokerKnives! This is straight🔥🔥🔥
Kinda looks like the reverse tanto shape of a Hudson Bay style camp knife. Cool looking blade!
Thx for the review! Joker knived are really high on my knife shopping list. Seems to have amazing price quality ratio. Cheers for a fellow outdoors man, knife enthusiast from the village of Fiskars, Finland!
Thank you. I just bought one after watching your review. 🙂👍🇮🇪
Looks great my friend another well made knife from Spain. Thanks to joker for that.
Saludos Amigo
I have found that a fine ceramic rod works very well to sharpen this edge . Thank you . Cheers
Awesome blade I have both Thanks for another great video
Sick knife..!!!! I’ll give you and anyone that wants a really cool tip…. Free paint stir stick from Home Depot.. you know those flat wooden ones… and go to your craft store (Michaels..) grab some leather strips… you’ll just have to cut it all down.. leather and stick to your size liking.. mine is about 6-7 inches long with about a 4-5 inch section of leather on both sides… cheap effective and badass…! I EDC an LT Wright Mavrick Colt.. I run it on my stop every couple days… just a few minutes… still factory sharp and I’ve owned it about 6 months now… and I use it on about every meal every day.. and whatever else cutting task I need it for.. Go make a few… you will all dig em.. I promise..!
Looks like a beast, will have to look into this blade, it's a good design. Almost looks like a smaller version of the Condor's IronPath with a much better handle design.
So glad you didn't review another pocket knife. Awesome video
I have most jokers....Tops...pumas...bucks ... just have to many knives 😂 but I enjoy your videos..😂keep it going man
Man fells tree, tree falls. Love the videos
I am super excited about this new, bigger Nomad! I just wish Joker had changed the steel from N695 to Sandvik 14C28N like they use on most of their other knives. That is a much better choice in my opinion for a large, hard use knife than N695.
Speaking of N695, I think you got that and N690 backwards. N695 is essentially the same as 440C, while N690 is essentially the same as VG10 and is the more expensive steel. Knife manufacturers like Bradford, Brisa and Boker (funny how they all begin with B) use N690 as a budget “premium” stainless steel option.
As far as competitive options, I think the Esee 6 is very comparable in price, size and function. If I had to pick between those two I would definitely go with the Esee 6 though. The 1095 HC steel is a better choice for a large, heavy use knife than N695, and you get the unconditional, lifetime warranty with the Esee as well.
14c28n, 13c26 (or aebl), Aus10a or no a not sure. I usually gravitate towards these, except aebl eludes me for some reason. For survival and stainless, those come in mind for toughness. Maybe aus10a can keep up with 14c28n, but I'm not sure 🤔
Cold steel uses aus10a in their folders to great success, the 4max scout survived Joe-x's test. Still I'm surprised I only see aebl being used by custom knife makers
14c28n os more expensive so they probably chose this for economic reasons on the bigger blade. Also the heat treats a bit more atraight forward.
Just good it. I’m amazed at it.
Awesome review of an awesome knife. I have the 5” and was curious about a comparison between the Joker Nomad 6.5 and the Architect Builders Field Buddy 6..5”. I’m leaning towards the Feld Buddy because of CPM 3V steel and the sheath options. I also would prefer the choil on such a large knife. Thoughts?
That would be my choice too 👍
@@gideonstactical Thank you sir. Appreciate your time. Love your channel and all the effort you go to making extremely detailed and thoughtful videos. Hope you and yours are well.
Thank you for the best knife reviews available.
Dude have three of those in different types they are fantastic knives..joker and well built
Love your content and Joker knives are growing on me. Wondering if you have had any first hand experience with JEO-TEC knives? I’ve been eyeing the NO. 16 on Amazon and considering taking a chance. I think they are also made in Spain but know nothing about them. My go to edc knife is a Buck 110 goes on my belt first thing in the morning and when I am not wearing a belt it is a Buck 110 Slim Select. I am definitely not a steel snob and from decades of first hand experience I know Buck heat treated 420 HC just plain works.
This is a beatiful knife, more like a froe. I still prefer something thinner and pointy
Thank you for a really interesting and informative vid on this knife! Well done! I subscribed.
Looks nice.
Great job on the video
Joker is no slouch. yo
Yep.
Guys you can get half the price kit With better steel.
I will not even mention enzo trapper in ELMAX for 120 euros.
But if you dig every drop from shitty brand. I cant say "you shall not pass"
Go ahead!
Aaron,
Okay. So as to carrying a larger knife besides the Joker Nessmuck as the primary camp knife, it would be nice to see a comparison between the Nomad 6.5 and the Tops Brush Wolf. What one would you choose? I am torn between the two. My envision of light camp blade gear is the Joker Nessmuck, Silky Big Boy, Grandpa Axe, and or either the Joker Nomad 6.5 or the Tops Brush Wolf. Your thoughts and potential comparisons of pros and cons would be great. Thank you for your time.
That is tough. Both are great. The Joker will baton a little better because of the less aggressive tip. The brushwolf will chop better. The saw back is great for quick notches. The convex is slicy by requires that extra maintenance skill for resharpening. If I could one have one the brushwolf would win.
Thanks Aaron.
Knife newbie here... I'm really interesed in the Nomad and looking at the Joker website they mention that the steel is Böhler N695 in the written description and then Sandvik 14c28n in the product details... could someone help explain why they mention different steels?
That is odd. I believe currently they’re making out of N695 steel
Thanks for a great review!
Glad it was helpful!
Yeah I’m getting one now and it’s all your fault! :D
Joker gots the goods!
Convex grind is the oldest kind of grind because a natural rocking motion creates a convex. They’re actually easier to sharpen than a saber grind. People just aren’t familiar with the different type of sharpening required with a convex.
Nice review. This looks really good. Trying to decide between nomad 6.5 and Esee 6.
Love to see this in a comparison to a Lionsteel T6.
Thanks Aaron. U keep doing awesome reviews (that damage my credit card statement) but it’s all good. Keep up the excellent work.
This knife looks a lot like the MOD Survival Knife! The blunt nose in particular.
Great content, great products, Great Channel! Subscribed :-)
Thanks for the sub! Welcome to the GT Crew
Amazing review - definitely worth a look ❤
how is your long time experience with the edge retention? Will it hold a sharp edge?
I love it! Thanks so much, it is a decent edge retention. But it will need to be stropped regularly if you really use it 👍
@@gideonstactical so you mean by leather stropping? This would avoid the risk of flat grinding the edge by accident, right?
Joker, Miguel Nieto, Cudeman, Muela, J&V, etc
Very nice camp knife. Would love that.
I had bad luck with Streamlight and the tail switch quit working after a year. For about $35 I got a Soonfire light off of Amazon and it has my EDC light for 3 years. The Soonfire has a rechargeable lithium battery that I have never had to replace and it gives me up to 1000 lumens or a low level light that will last for 100s of hours.
Looks like a pretty dang good blade especially for the money
Which blade do you think is better the joker nomad or the lionsteel m7
M7
Been trying to decide between the Nomad and Campero.
What do you think of this knife today? Do you advise me to buy it?
Any word on this 6.5 version? Would love to purchase one!
Bohler N695 is a superior steel over the Sandvik 14c28n steel.
The n695 steel accepts a razor sharp edge while the sandvik steel only gets moderately sharp in comparison!
Knife Center and Chicago Knife Works have them.
Hi there ! Would you recommend using a V shape ceramic sharpener on such a convex grind ?
Not at all, that will ruin the edge is you me one of the pull through models.
Where can I get one of these I have the 5” and love it but can’t find the 6.5” blade HQ doesn’t carry joker and knife works only has the 5”
i know this is a year later but bladehq has the nomad 6.5 now! lol
I gotta get one.
Looks very impressive 👍🏼👍🏼 thx 😎🇺🇸🤙🏼
Thanks 👍
Could you comment on the relative differences between the two handles; Walnut vs.Micarta? Feel. durability etc
Have the original nomad and it's a great knife. Just ordered the 6.5 😁
Awesome knife. Can you get it without the jimping?
Not to my knowledge
Hi, does it have a real full tang or a skeletonised full tang?
You can get it directly from Spain. Look for Cuchilleria Albacete!
So, given the general humidity and dampness in Appalachia, would you say this would be a good knife to have in the day hike pack as a just in case big blade? I was looking at the Junglas 2 until this vid dropped.
Giving Tops, Kabar and Esee a run for their money.
I've got the buttons but I have never been able to get mine undone they're permanently stuck it sucks I have to put it on my belt when I run it through the loops
I think a big knive is mutch better for backpack than a Hatchat.
Ordered. It's supposed to arrive this week and I'm so stoked. I love the look of this knife with the walnut.
Oh, I found it at Chicago Knife Works for between $120 - $130 USD.
Sick!!
I'm reading that N695 is an equivalent of... 440C steel. Is Nomad 6.5 just an overbuilt kitchen knife?
440 C is a great steel. And 695 has performed well for me in the past. Definitely a little bit more capable than your generic kitchen knife ha ha ha ha
Our daddy taught us not to be ashamed of our knives, especially since they're such a good size (c)
Cracker mate, absolutely love this knife! Is the watch a Casio AE1500 ? Thanks from the UK!
Omg now look what you have done, I have to buy a new knife, now it’s 8 inches of nomad
How does it compare to Survive GSO. 6.5 ?
Is this particular knife sold in the US ? Having trouble tracking it down
I know it will be. It may not have made it over here yet.
@@gideonstactical Word thanks. Keep up the good content!
How do I get my hands on this knife? Links go to the standard nomad that is 5 inches.
It is a pity that Joker did not use the 14c28n as for his other knives. The N695 is well known for its lack of toughness.
Where are you at in Colorado. I'm in Kremmling Colorado. Love your show. 🇺🇲❤️🙏🙏🙏. Later
I like it. ❤
Will Joker Nomad or Normad 6.5 be comparable to ESEE 6?
Yes, very similar size
@@gideonstactical Between the two, would you choose the Nomad over the ESEE 6? The Nomad is great according to your review and it is stainless.
Can you tell me if you were able to get a Kydex sheath (with fire steel holder) for your Joker Nomad 6.5. I've sent emails but get no reply. Grateful for any help.
You could very easily wet form that sheath and then it wouldn't fall out for sure lol
