HAHA there is actually a channel dedicated to high carbon steel knives wtf!!??!! In an age of bullshit and compromise, you sir are a legend! Wonderful idea and I wish you all the best.
Hi sharon! Very nice to hear from you, my friend! Definitely a great gift from Nathan and its been a very fun knife to use in the woods! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by! -Dave
Hey, my friend, nice to hear from you! I think it would make an excellent fishing knife! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment! -Dave
Nathan is a very good man and a great friend! I don't own any of spyderco's folders, but I love the 2 fixed blades I own by them! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your great comment, my friend! -Dave
Love that knife Dave! But when I saw the 150 dollar price, my mind suddenly went back home to Morakniv. If one were to spend that amount of money in the Mora arena, well good golly, a battery of excellent knives would arrive!!! LOL!!! >;) Stay well Amigo, always good to see you on line!
Thank you for watching, Charles! You are exactly right and I am very fortunate to have received this as a gift! You stay well, too, Charles and it's great to hear from you, my friend! -Dave
What an Awesome Gift you received there! I've wanted this knife for quite a while, but just cant justify the price right now, so I'm happy with my Spyderco Bushcraft-UK. But I surely wouldn't pass it up if I won one in a contest or it was gifted to me either!
Thank you for watching, Dano! It's definitely an excellent gift and fun to use, however, very few knives will ever top my Spyderco Bushcraft! One of my favorite knives of all time! Very happy to hear that you are happy with yours. -Dave
Dave- another great review. Thanks for sharing. I wonder if you might do a review on your technique using the fero rod? Many people, especially new comers have a learning curve when starting out. You always make it look simple and easy. I have seen you use many different striking methods from showering to gently scraping. I think many of your subs and viewers might benefit from the way you explain things so simply and accurately in your presentations. I know I, for one, would be appreciative of a fero rod tutorial. Thanks Deav. Keep up the great work.
I will definitely talk more about my ferro rod use in the future, my friend! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your kind, encouraging comment, Curtis! -Dave
The Spyderco Puukko is incredible. Ive never seen a blade bite into wood like it does. I have tons of knives but that grind they did it just wants to cut everything. Solid handle and blade it feels indestructible. The gold with brown handle and the polish on the steel is gorgeous as well. My overall impression is that it is a workhorse that will do tasks amazing and also a very good for self defense and food prep. Just a great blade. I havent used the ferro rod yet. Thanks, Jonathan
Hey, John! Nice to hear from you, my friend! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and leave your awesome comment! It's not a bad Puukko knife at all! -Dave
I thank Nathan, as well, my friend..lol! Without Nathan's kindness, this knife is a bit pricey for me too, but I am happy to own it! Thank you for watching and leaving your awesome comment! -Dave
Say Heah Dave. Yeah I have a Puuko Style Knife. Mine is a Rod Garcia Skookum Bush Tool in 3V, It's one of my Fav. Carver's. When we talked he listened. Mine is right on the 4" but depend's how you measure it I get 4"+. But the important thing I mentioned a continueing curve, I told him I think curves carve great. My Skookum Bush Tool came out with a nice continueing curve and it's a great Carver, It cane out spot on. I just wish it didn't take as long. But I will be getting another ine. I can't imagine being without my Skookum Bush Tool. I generally use mine as a neck knife teaming it up with a larger knife. I like teaming it with my Fox Parang Bushcraft Knife when I'm not teaming my Fox Parang with my C. S. Master Hunter in 3V. But I can also just add my 2Hawks Double Bit Hatchet or my Warbeast Tomahawk and my Victorinox Delmont Collection Rangergrip 78 as a back-up, plus saw ofcource . I could use this set on hikes or on scouts it all depend's if I want to do a overnighter or not. But with the shirt daylight this time of year, I still concider it being prepared. Oh by the way, that Spyderco Puuko is Sweet.,,.
You are exactly right, john, Nathan is a very generous brother! It's an excellent knife and very fun to use! Thank you for taking the time to stop by, my friend! -Dave
Hey, brother! Thank you for watching, my friend! I look forward to seeing the puukko that Tops comes out with! It's great to hear from you, Josh! -Dave
Thank you for the kind words, andri! I am very happy that you were able to understand the video! Its great to have you here and I hope to talk with you again soon! -Dave
Haha, thank you for watching, my friend! It's actually called the Dragon ferro rod on Nathan4071's eBay page. The Monster ferro rod is another option that I use the most often! -Dave
Hey Irene! Very nice to hear from you, my friend! I hope everything is going well for you and your family! I do like this knife, so far, however, the Spyderco Bushcraft is a very tough knife to match. One of my absolute favorites! -Dave
What a nice gift from nathan4071! You must enjoy this incredible puukko knife and the giant ferro rod. What is the hole in the blade and what is it for? Keep up the awesome video rolling Dave. Take care my friend, best regards -Yves
Yes, Yves, very nice gifts and I enjoy them very much! The hole is just the Spyderco trademark. I appreciate your kind, encouraging words, my friend, and look forward to talking with you again soon! -Dave
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, Matthew! I am not the biggest fan of super steels, either, as they have always been hit or miss for me. However, I am never one to complain about a great gift..haha! -Dave
Nice knife and nice vid! Just for the protocol, Sweden, Norway and Denmark is the Scandinavian Countries. If you add Finland, Iceland and Faroe Islands you have the Nordic Countries...👍🏻😄
Good video again Dave. That knife looks amazing! How does that really long scandi grind effect carving, feathersticking, etc? Thanks again for for blessing my Sunday morning!
Thank you for the kind words, Jason! The scandi grind on this knife is excellent for carving and feather sticks, as it really wants to bite into the wood. The one downside is that this high of a scandi grid tends to be a brittle edge. -Dave
Say Heah Dave, I called Spyderco. They told me it's a Hidden Tapper Tang, about 2/3 tang, no it doesn't go full, but it seems it's strong enough to carve with. I'm using mine as a neck knife. Also the size, I have a Cold Steel SISU (discontinued), it's a copy of a Tapio Wirkkala Puukku. I just got mine and I noticed it's a petite version of the Tapio Wirkkala Puukku. But with suttle differences. I made another Trio, I decided on my Estwing Sportsman with the Leather Handle and my EZ KUT WoW Folding Saw. Yup, my Flexcut Carving Jack and my Gerber Multi Tool. Another Afternoon Delight Set. Dilly Dilly.,,.p
I can understand that, my friend! The handle is definitely different and takes some getting used to. You are exactly right, a great gift, indeed! Are you still on vacation, brother? -Dave
Yes, I go back to work for training March 4th. A fellow RUclipsr and I have become friends and we decided to spend some time together and share common interests here at my home. It's been a lot of fun.
Thank you for watching, my friend! So far, holding up pretty well. Needs some touching up every now and then, due to the brittle nature of the high scandi grind but I haven't had any issues. Nice to hear from you! -Dave
Nice knife Dave I like dangler sheaths myself. Do you have any idea why Spyderco drills holes in all their blades, maybe it's just a type of signature thing?
I am very happy to hear that you enjoyed the video! Thank you for watching and leaving your very nice, encouraging comment, my friend! I hope to talk with you again soon! -Dave
Wow ! what a friend , that's an awesome knife Dave , I like Spyderco knives though I have a nice collection of their folders I still don't have anybody grit fixed blades , I'm still considering the bushcrafter from Spyderco just haven't committed yet 😝! Dave I wanted to ask you if you've ever used if owned any of the Enzo knives from Finland ? I have 2 if there Trapper models one had curly birch scales and the other has green micarta scales . I can truly say that the Enzo trapper is a fine BC knife mine are both in 0-1 tool steel and have a true scandi grind . Anyway I digress thanks fir the video and take care brother 👍🏻🇺🇸✌🏻️!
Thank you for watching and leaving your awesome comment, Brandon! I don't have any of the Enzo knives but they sound excellent! Thank you for the info and I look forward to talking with you again soon! -Dave
Thank you for taking the time to stop by and leave your awesome comment, my friend! Nathan4071 sells them at his eBay channel here - www.ebay.com/usr/nathan4071?_trksid=p2047675.l2559. The one I am using in this video is called "The Dragon" on the site. Very affordable and they are the only ferro rods I use. Also, many different sizes available. Let me know what you think, brother! -Dave
Nice puukko, i am a big Spyderco fan and have a lot of spydie's...but this puukko is NO match for the real puukko's with carbon blade's! I also make puukko's myself with blade's i buy in Finland. Nothing better than the "authentic" stuff...Kind regards and thx for sharing.
Thank you for watching! I agree that this knife isn't on par with traditional and real puukko knives, however, it's not a bad knife and it was a tremendous gift! -Dave
Say Heah Dave, you did a good job reviewing the Puukku. Yup, I also got the Spyderco Puukku, I got it at a great price too, I think their going to be discontinued, but there's some around, Yeah, I think it's going to be a good neck knife. Oh, I posted my (2) Custom Knives I commisioned (my design) William Collins to make. I posted them on my Google Plus. Dilly, Dilly.,,.p
Thank you for the kind words, my friend! It's called the Dragon Ferro Rod and you can purchase it from Nathan4071's ebay channel in the description box! Very affordable and outstanding! -Dave
Say Heah Dave, One more question, Do you think the tang is the hight of the Handle and does it go all the way back to the Pommel, Oh, and is it strong enough to baton. Thanx You in Advance. Dilly Dilly.,,.p
I think it might be a 3/4 hidden tang? I could be wrong but it works really well! Yes, it batons quite well. The high scandi is an excellent wedge. Thank you for watching! -Dave
The Lagom is my absolute favorite and I rate it higher than this Puukko because of the handle. I am not a big fan of the tear drop handle on the Spyderco. Thank you for watching! -Dave
+HighCarbonSteel Love Thanks for the reply. I just got the Terava Jaakaripuukko 110 last month and is is the best budget puukkp knife. If it wasn't my daily knife, I would have sent it to you for review. I think that Lagoom knife is awesome.
Thank you for taking the time to watch, Thomas! Yep, Spyderco Trademark hole. The handle is not the most comfortable handle I have ever used but it's not the worst I have ever used, either. A nice, rounded traditional puukko handle would've worked really well! -Dave
I own both knives and I personally prefer the Benchmade. I am not a fan of the handle on the Spyderco Puukko, while the handle on the Benchmade 162 is excellent. The 162 is also a more versatile, heavier duty knife. I have a few videos on the Benchmade 162 and here is my most recent - ruclips.net/video/m3kGN5L2NBg/видео.html. They are both excellent knives, however ,the 162 is one of the top knives in my rotation. Thank you for taking the time to stop by and keep me posted on which one you chose! -Dave
HighCarbonSteel Love Thank you so much for your reply I have since watched all of your videos on them Very informative! I am almost certain I've made my decision to get to the 162 However, I'm curious of your thoughts on whether I should consider reprofiling the blade to either a saber grind or Scandinavian? I'll be making my purchase before the end of February
Ya know, after using this knife for an extended period of time, I concur, Thomas. While it's an excellent knife, the handle does lack comfort over long term use. Thank you for taking the time to stop by! -Dave
www.ebay.com/itm/Ferrocerium-rod-Sasquatch-6-inches-long-x-1-2-inch-diam-Ferro-rod-Fire-steel-/142279952849?hash=item21208bc9d1:g:qCIAAOxydUJTNJSn Try there its Nathans ebay listing. Good price as well.
I have seen pics and read articles about some traditional puukko and traditional Japanese knives with this type of teardrop handle. However, I think there is a reason why you don't see them much nowadays...I wouldn't call this knife grip unbearable, but the handle is definitely different. Thank you for watching! -Dave
Thomas Linton The tapio hackman puukko knives have the same shaped handles, and they sell for hundreds of dollars used. It may be unusual but it's still been around for a long time.
Benchmade made the puukoo for 125.00 and it's in 3v. American made. Would slice right thru that Spyderco blade. Probably in the hole it would break. Weak ass Spyderco.
HAHA there is actually a channel dedicated to high carbon steel knives wtf!!??!!
In an age of bullshit and compromise, you sir are a legend! Wonderful idea and I wish you all the best.
my wife and kids got this for me for Christmas. it's so pretty I'm afraid to use it.lol.
You are going to love using it, Brenton! Let me know how it goes, my friend! Thank you for taking the time to stop by! -Dave
Just subbed, also just received my spyderco Puukko today, with the wood handles. Can’t wait to put it to use!
That is a great gift from Nathan4071. The Spyderco knife is beautiful and looks to have an wonderful performance in the woods.
Hi sharon! Very nice to hear from you, my friend! Definitely a great gift from Nathan and its been a very fun knife to use in the woods! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by! -Dave
A BEAUTIFUL carving knife. I'm sure you could dress fish with it too. Nice addition to your knives. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Hey, my friend, nice to hear from you! I think it would make an excellent fishing knife! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment! -Dave

Thank you for watching and I couldn't have said it any better, myself, Dean O! Nathan is truly something else, my friend! -Dave
Love that knife Dave! But when I saw the 150 dollar price, my mind suddenly went back home to Morakniv. If one were to spend that amount of money in the Mora arena, well good golly, a battery of excellent knives would arrive!!! LOL!!! >;) Stay well Amigo, always good to see you on line!
Thank you for watching, Charles! You are exactly right and I am very fortunate to have received this as a gift! You stay well, too, Charles and it's great to hear from you, my friend! -Dave

Thank you for the kind words! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by, my friend! -Dave
Looks like a nice Puuko. I didn't know that Spyderco made one. Wow..
It's not bad, at all, Frank! Thank you for taking the time to watch, my friend! -Dave
Just received mine in a trade and now I'm itching to go out and play in the woods!
What an Awesome Gift you received there! I've wanted this knife for quite a while, but just cant justify the price right now, so I'm happy with my Spyderco Bushcraft-UK. But I surely wouldn't pass it up if I won one in a contest or it was gifted to me either!
Thank you for watching, Dano! It's definitely an excellent gift and fun to use, however, very few knives will ever top my Spyderco Bushcraft! One of my favorite knives of all time! Very happy to hear that you are happy with yours. -Dave
@@HighCarbonSteelLove - I've had this Puukko now for 2 years and with my Spyderco Bushcraft UK, I feel unstoppable in the woods! 😆
Thanks for the review - feather sticks are great but I really appreciate all of the notches you also show.
Thank you for watching, James! I appreciate the kind words, my friend! I love bushcraft notching! -Dave
Dave- another great review. Thanks for sharing. I wonder if you might do a review on your technique using the fero rod? Many people, especially new comers have a learning curve when starting out.

I bought this knife and one of those ferro rods, thanks for the great channel. I cant wait to use this spyderco.
Thats awesome, Jonathan! Make sure to let me know your initial impressions of both! You are going to love them! -Dave
The Spyderco Puukko is incredible. Ive never seen a blade bite into wood like it does. I have tons of knives but that grind they did it just wants to cut everything.

Great looking knife Dave and some awesome knife skills by you. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your nice comment, Bill! Nice to hear form you, my friend! -Dave
Sharp looking knife both in looks and function. And a great video. Thanks Dave.
Hey, John! Nice to hear from you, my friend! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and leave your awesome comment! It's not a bad Puukko knife at all! -Dave
Thanks to you and Nathan for sharing. Beautiful knife but a little pricey for me.
I thank Nathan, as well, my friend..lol! Without Nathan's kindness, this knife is a bit pricey for me too, but I am happy to own it! Thank you for watching and leaving your awesome comment! -Dave
Very cool blade. ⚔️😎👍
wow Nathan has treated you well that's a slick looking knife, love the gold accent. I would not have thought that was g10
also what angle is that scandi grind? it looks quite acute probably less than 20° I would think
Nathan is great, my friend! Yes, the gold accent is definitely a nice touch! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by! -Dave
I think you are right, my friend! -Dave
Say Heah Dave. Yeah I have a Puuko Style Knife. Mine is a Rod Garcia Skookum Bush Tool in 3V, It's one of my Fav. Carver's. When we talked he listened.

I could use this set on hikes or on scouts it all depend's if I want to do a overnighter or not. But with the shirt daylight this time of year, I still concider it being prepared. Oh by the way, that Spyderco Puuko is Sweet.,,.
Nice! I've heard great things about the Skookum! -Dave

I like scandi's of all shapes and sizes..lol! Thank you for watching and leaving your kind words! -Dave
I love a puukko. great knife and review!
Thank you for watching, my friend! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by! -Dave

That is one monster ferro rod, haha!
Haha, thank you for watching, my friend! It's actually called the Dragon ferro rod on Nathan4071's eBay page. The Monster ferro rod is another option that I use the most often! -Dave
Great review as always 👍
Thank you for the kind words, Adrian! I really appreciate that, my friend, and its great to hear from you, as always! -Dave
Hey Dave! That's a knife for you! I hope you will tell us in the future how you like it compared to the Spyderco Bushcraft. Take care, Irène.
Hey Irene! Very nice to hear from you, my friend! I hope everything is going well for you and your family! I do like this knife, so far, however, the Spyderco Bushcraft is a very tough knife to match. One of my absolute favorites! -Dave
What a nice gift from nathan4071! You must enjoy this incredible puukko knife and the giant ferro rod. What is the hole in the blade and what is it for? Keep up the awesome video rolling Dave. Take care my friend, best regards -Yves
Yes, Yves, very nice gifts and I enjoy them very much! The hole is just the Spyderco trademark. I appreciate your kind, encouraging words, my friend, and look forward to talking with you again soon! -Dave
The real Finnish Lapland Puukko blade was between 5" and 6" long!
I know because I have one of the originals from my Finnish grandfather!
Wow, that looks resistant, heavy, thick and powerful. A beautiful item, though I would be quite scared to hold it in my hands. :)
Thank you for watching, Federico! I would be just as scared to hold one of your guitars, my friend..haha! Nice to hear from you! -Dave
That is an awesome looking knife Dave. I am not so sure about these super steels, but I guess I am just an ole foggy.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your awesome comment, Matthew! I am not the biggest fan of super steels, either, as they have always been hit or miss for me. However, I am never one to complain about a great gift..haha! -Dave
ROFLing! You are so correct! I , also, would never complain about a gift. I just have a need to be able to sharpen easily in the field.
Nice knife and nice vid! Just for the protocol, Sweden, Norway and Denmark is the Scandinavian Countries. If you add Finland, Iceland and Faroe Islands you have the Nordic Countries...👍🏻😄
Thank you for watching and leaving your nice comment! I appreciate the information, my friend! -Dave
Hallo my friend where i can buy this knife spyderco Puukko
another great video David my friend :-)
Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your nice comment, Jason! Great to hear from you, my friend! -Dave
Good video again Dave. That knife looks amazing! How does that really long scandi grind effect carving, feathersticking, etc? Thanks again for for blessing my Sunday morning!
Thank you for the kind words, Jason! The scandi grind on this knife is excellent for carving and feather sticks, as it really wants to bite into the wood. The one downside is that this high of a scandi grid tends to be a brittle edge. -Dave
I remember my dad always using a knife like it at dinner.
Thats great! I am sure no meat ever gave him a hard time. Thank you for watching! -Dave
Say Heah Dave, I called Spyderco. They told me it's a Hidden Tapper Tang, about 2/3 tang, no it doesn't go full, but it seems it's strong enough to carve with. I'm using mine as a neck knife.

But with suttle differences. I made another Trio, I decided on my Estwing Sportsman with the Leather Handle and my EZ KUT WoW Folding Saw. Yup, my Flexcut Carving Jack and my Gerber Multi Tool. Another Afternoon Delight Set. Dilly Dilly.,,.p
Ah okay, great information! How do you like the handle? It's the only part of this knife I am not a fan of. -Dave
It looks like it's a very capable knife but I'm not sure the handle is for me. Regardless, what a great gift!
I can understand that, my friend! The handle is definitely different and takes some getting used to. You are exactly right, a great gift, indeed! Are you still on vacation, brother? -Dave
Yes, I go back to work for training March 4th. A fellow RUclipsr and I have become friends and we decided to spend some time together and share common interests here at my home. It's been a lot of fun.
Thats great to hear! Enjoy the rest of your vacation! -Dave
A beautiful knife. Out of reach of my wallet. In time let us know how it holds up. Greatings to you from Qc city Canada
Thank you for watching, my friend! So far, holding up pretty well. Needs some touching up every now and then, due to the brittle nature of the high scandi grind but I haven't had any issues. Nice to hear from you! -Dave
Nice knife Dave I like dangler sheaths myself. Do you have any idea why Spyderco drills holes in all their blades, maybe it's just a type of signature thing?

Nice puukko, i am a big Spyderco fan and have a lot of spydie's...but this puukko is NO match for the real puukko's with carbon blade's! I also make puukko's myself with blade's i buy in Finland. Nothing better than the "authentic" stuff...Kind regards and thx for sharing.

saludos, cual es la funcion del orificio? en el cuchillo? solo adorno?
Say Heah Dave, you did a good job reviewing the Puukku. Yup, I also got the Spyderco Puukku, I got it at a great price too, I think their going to be discontinued, but there's some around, Yeah, I think it's going to be a good neck knife. Oh, I posted my (2) Custom Knives I commisioned (my design) William Collins to make. I posted them on my Google Plus. Dilly, Dilly.,,.p
Thank you for watching and leaving your nice comment! I think the knife is going to work out well for you, my friend! -Dave
Great video mate. what type of fire steel are you using ??? Thank you.
Thank you for the kind words, my friend! It's called the Dragon Ferro Rod and you can purchase it from Nathan4071's ebay channel in the description box! Very affordable and outstanding! -Dave
Say Heah Dave, One more question, Do you think the tang is the hight of the Handle and does it go all the way back to the Pommel, Oh, and is it strong enough to baton. Thanx You in Advance. Dilly Dilly.,,.p
I think it might be a 3/4 hidden tang? I could be wrong but it works really well! Yes, it batons quite well. The high scandi is an excellent wedge. Thank you for watching! -Dave
Not sure how smart S30v is with a high scandi grind which is incredibly brittle of a grind.
Time will definitely tell, my friend! Thank you for watching! -Dave
Say Heah Dave, I have a question, how do you rate the Spyderco Puukku against the LT Wright Lagom, Thanx You in Advance. Dilly Dilly.,,.p
The Lagom is my absolute favorite and I rate it higher than this Puukko because of the handle. I am not a big fan of the tear drop handle on the Spyderco. Thank you for watching! -Dave
Good eating wear
Yes, not bad for food prep or eating, at all! Thank you for watching! -Dave
What is the purpose of the hole in the blade?
MrG2U Spyderco Trademark. No purpose at all.
Its just the Spyderco trademark, my friend. Thank you for watching! -Dave
Thank you, brother! -Dave
*HEY DAVE* could you review finish knife J.Martinini. ilves 129 😊
If I get a chance to pick one up, I will definitely to a review! Thank you for watching! -Dave
Hey brother, which do you prefer: Lagom Bush Knife, or Spyderco Puukko? There can ONLY be one!!!
mister smith I have heard the fine puukko edge rolls to easily, go for the lagom
Hey, mister smith! Nice to hear from you! Lagom Bush Knife, all day long! -Dave
Yes, the Lagom Bush Knife is one of the very best knives I have ever owned! -Dave
+PrioritySurvival Okay, thanks!
+HighCarbonSteel Love Thanks for the reply. I just got the Terava Jaakaripuukko 110 last month and is is the best budget puukkp knife. If it wasn't my daily knife, I would have sent it to you for review. I think that Lagoom knife is awesome.
Hole is trademark.
The bottom edge of the handle is way to sharp for me to use this knife in a hammer grip - hurts!
Thank you for taking the time to watch, Thomas! Yep, Spyderco Trademark hole. The handle is not the most comfortable handle I have ever used but it's not the worst I have ever used, either. A nice, rounded traditional puukko handle would've worked really well! -Dave
I'm trying to decide between a spyderco puukko and a benchmade 162
Does anyone have experience with both ?
I own both knives and I personally prefer the Benchmade. I am not a fan of the handle on the Spyderco Puukko, while the handle on the Benchmade 162 is excellent. The 162 is also a more versatile, heavier duty knife. I have a few videos on the Benchmade 162 and here is my most recent - ruclips.net/video/m3kGN5L2NBg/видео.html. They are both excellent knives, however ,the 162 is one of the top knives in my rotation. Thank you for taking the time to stop by and keep me posted on which one you chose! -Dave
HighCarbonSteel Love
Thank you so much for your reply
I have since watched all of your videos on them
Very informative!
I am almost certain I've made my decision to get to the 162
However, I'm curious of your thoughts on whether I should consider reprofiling the blade to either a saber grind or Scandinavian?
I'll be making my purchase before the end of February
Bottom edge of the handle is way to narrow for comfort.
Ya know, after using this knife for an extended period of time, I concur, Thomas. While it's an excellent knife, the handle does lack comfort over long term use. Thank you for taking the time to stop by! -Dave
thanks the video it is a beauty knife but 150 $ 👀
Thank you for watching! It's definitely a nice knife and I was very fortunate to receive it as a gift! -Dave

davebuts thank you!
No problem my friend Dave UK
Nathan has some excellent, affordable ferro rods at davebuts' link provided below! My preferred ferro rods! Thank you for watching! -Dave
Thank you, Dave! I appreciate you providing that, my friend! -Dave
Красота! Но дырка в клинке лишняя!
Thank you for watching! -Dave
The hole is a weak point
I haven't noticed that on any of my Spyderco knives. Thank you for watching! -Dave
This knife has a shape of slicing your own gut open......
Teardrop is not traditional. It's unusual.
I have seen pics and read articles about some traditional puukko and traditional Japanese knives with this type of teardrop handle. However, I think there is a reason why you don't see them much nowadays...I wouldn't call this knife grip unbearable, but the handle is definitely different. Thank you for watching! -Dave
Thomas Linton The tapio hackman puukko knives have the same shaped handles, and they sell for hundreds of dollars used. It may be unusual but it's still been around for a long time.
Benchmade made the puukoo for 125.00 and it's in 3v. American made. Would slice right thru that Spyderco blade. Probably in the hole it would break. Weak ass Spyderco.
Thank you for watching! -Dave
