Bear Grylls Ultimate Survival Kit 
Наука
I survived 492 days in the wild (no food or nothing) but my trusty Bear Grylls scout knife !! its a miracle!!
I just recently bought the parang machete and let me tell you it is a thing of beauty, it works great you don't have to sharpen it often and when you do it is a breeze to do so. An the survival instructions as well as the little pouch on the back of the sheath is water and tear resistant, it really is a perfect piece.
The amount of selling out here is out of this world. “Trust me”
The problem with plastic can be stress cracking, especially with extreme temp changes. Newer epoxy bases, such as G10 composite, greatly improve upon this and have found their way on many knives because of it. While rubberized handles do give more initial grip, on heavy usage knives they will eventually be destroyed. Micarta (and dry carbon fiber) have offered solutions to this as they grip well when dry and actually increase in grip when wet or bloody, but have strength along the lines of G10.
but the real question is... how many bears could bear grylls grill if bear grylls could grill bears?
Three?
Maybe a million
one. Because the next bear would grill bear grylls while bear grylls grills the first bear.
ming deng as many bears as Bear Grylls could if Bear Grylls could grill bears
-117
Anyone else notice the tools on the multi tool fall open when he demonstrated the spring loaded pliers?
My multi tool does that too but it’s not a bear Grylls one, it’s not even made by Gerber, they’re just not locked in so they come out
Horrible detent
"Whatever knife I'm using..." which is code for, "I use a much better knife than the ones I show you here." ha ha
These knives actually aren't that bad. Don't get me wrong, they got nothing on Cold Steel. But I recently bought the Parang Machete for a small garden chore and I was very impressed. It was 1055 high carbon steel, full tang, secure grip handle, AND it came VERY sharp out of the box. I've used it since then and it has not lost it's edge. A very nice blade for $20
"After we receive your Parang, we will mail you a free replacement Parang"
I think I'll still buy one.
leathermen and victoronox make great multi tools
+Colin Chaney All my multitools are Leathermen and all my kitchen knives are Victorinox! :D
I would say VICTORINOX and Leatherman
I bought the parang a yr ago ive chopped numerous big trees down with it and ive only had to sharpen it once be sure to keep it dry though if you can it tends to wanna rust if not oiled properly
I have the fire steel, had it for years, and just learned from this video today that the cap on one end comes off and there is cotton in there for tinder.
brought you by walmart
I stabbed my neighboor in the chest with this. He survived, so it lives up to what its meant for. Survival.
XD
XD
Cool story
+absoluttchamp wtf
XD
Bear gryll's fire steal for the knife and just the steel itself is probably the only the product I have EVER bought that actually does what it says in the adverts
Ive owned and used his parang machete for years, it's actually one of the best buys I've made,stays pr sharp for a good while,and I can chop through wrist thick trees in 3 swings
Looks hard to sharpen though and the sheath looks flimsy
Wow! Thanks for uploading this video! I have had the BG ultimate survival knife for months now and didn't know it had a whistle, the holes for lashing, and a sharpener! Guess I should have read the package lol.
how long did it last 11 years later?
to everyone bitching about these knives, I own some and I can say that for the price they are defiantly good. Bear isn't trying to make these hardcore, state of the art , super expensive weapons. hes making cheap, good quality, reliable knives that will make your survival situation much easier.
If you buy cheap knives, you get bad quality.
they are already too expensive for being so badly made and fragile.
Other brands make tools way more sturdy and better finished for less money.
His very last full tang version of the survival knife is not too bad though. but the one showed in the video is absolute junk.
Survival. too want to live ... then when are you going to die ... .. what's the answer?
Actually he isnt making anything. He gets paid for the company putting his name on them. And are they made in China?
***** Most of them yeah.
Excellent video, thank you CC, Gerber and The Chief Scout Bear Grylls.
Just ordered my Bear Grylls ultimate pro survival knife, can't wait to get it!
actually, they have some pretty amazing stuff.
1:38 this is my firestarter, twisted firestarter
just got the parang for xmas works like a dream!
I'm not a "survivor" or even a person who goes into the wild for trips etc. but that first knife is brilliant.
bear is a good survivalist, but i wonder how many of those gerber tools he has broken, cause those tools are junk, except for that fire starting tool
Yeah you are so right and no one says that. And looked at a few of his knives all ready. If they were made in America I would buy one, to see how good it is. Made in China, NO WAY, so will not waste my time and the money.
My personal opinion of the items I have purchased that were Bear Grylls:
FireSteel: Good. Works well. Nothing significant over other firesteels but much better than typical magnesium.
Scout Knife: It is ok. If I could go back I would have kept my money.
Ultimate Survival Knife: Complete piece of junk. Substandard metal. Bent serration, bent blade and bent tip from non-strenuous use. Don't waste your money on it.
I prefer to buy higher quality products now rather than replace the gimmicky, celebrity-endorsed, near aluminum quality cutting instruments.
I bought his ultimate knife along with the fire starting kit and the machete really hood products
I got a couple of these tools in the Gerber Zombie Survival Kit, which was strangely discontinued and pulled from Amazon sometime during 2012. Evidently, something was wrong with the parang handle. I also got the Gerber multitool separately, and really like it.
Notice on the video with the multi tool that the tools started to swing out as he manipulated it in his hand.
You would have to be mental to by one one those over a leatherman.
Aussie Chip Lol I see
I've actually heard the metal is slightly too soft and requires frequent sharpening...
Actually it's way to soft, and requires sharpening very often. The steel is very likely to cruel.
Sou fã do Bear , o cara é muito bom + sou brasileiro é no meu país temos orgulho dos nossos guerreiros de selva que são os melhores do mundo .
WOW a knife that comes out easy and is very grippy. OMG
i want bear grylls in a zombie movie
Yvesyew In The Walking Dead they use a Knife and the Parang Machete
While he’s getting chased by a horde of zombies, he stops, looks at the camera, and starts giving a lesson on how to run away from zombies
I really love this Guy for what he is doing! God bless him!
a great man who deserves great respect
This guy deserves some credit.
Why not take a sharpener with you? Serrated blades last longer than razor sharp blades, but a soapstone finish will extend the life of a razor sharp blade, and a small chain blade will allow you to sustain life in the wild by facilitating construction.
me and bear served in NAM together, we used these same knives
+jay c uhu How old are you?
hahahahaha
+jay c He was less than a year old when the Vietnam war ENDED. Stop trying to pretend you're someone you're not. Or, at least try and do it well.
Joe Gurr hhahahaha great comment xD
It’s a joke, if you didn’t get it
I just picked up the paracord and its a great full tang knife
I have the Gerber Center Drive multi-tool and like it, and also the survival kit, but can't comment on it since it has never been used.
i personally own have use this knife is is very decent overall the only thing i think could be improved upon with this knife is instead of a stainless steel blade it should have been made out of a high carbon steel
Besides the Gerber mystery steel.
I wouldn't use Bear's crummy knives to dig the peanuts outta my shit.
The parang is worth the money, I had one for a couple years now and they work!
Love his shows. NATURE.
Maybe spend a bit more money on sound instead of producing knifes...
I think his throat is a bit dry, because he hasnt drunk any of his own piss today.
U both wrong... this is a recording of a recording lol
exactly what DiCaprio actually needs
I have several of these items, great stuff!
I saw one of the managers, nametag and all, put it up. And it's the exact same one. I had seen it in the display case in sporting goods before.
Junk even when you buy the extreme pro upgrade. For the same price you could buy a KA-Bar USMC 1095 tempered steel.
Rusty Shackleford Glock is Even cheaper and lasts forever
@@swupel3622 Glock knife is ok but it is not full tang. Would not be good for survival knife.
@@stansmith4054 I used it for over 2 years (also batoning etc) and it works perfectly fine
@@swupel3622 mine broke after stabbing a log while on a tropical island
@@khangvo5408 Weird I never even had bending or anything whilst using it for 4 years in the alps
how come he hasn't eaten any of it yet
ive had several gerber knives and the one i like most is the small cheap $10 one, you dont need an 8 inch blade to cut a piece of string
I have one of bears survival sets, they are really really good
Everyone who disrespects bear should do a little research, ad maybe you dimwits will have a little more respect, as you may know bear was a part of 21 SAS special forces and has climbed Everest and thats the least of what he has accomplished, so please have a little bit more respect for him.
Why he does not have my respect has nothing to do with his skills or accomplishments. he does not have my respect because he markets these crappy blades to his fans than may actually need to use one day. These blades will break after some use compared to what blades at this price range should be able to do.
If anything he needs to show some respect to his fans by not pushing overpriced junk to them.
Dan Martin i see the way you see it, his knives arnent terrible I have the one will the sheath and flint, it was around 60 bucks if I can remember, and I was decent keeps its edge for a long time, its no hunting knife but it is what is sais it is a good survival knife, but I cant judge his other appliances since ive never tried them, id like to try his canteen and boiling cup though.
*****
I'm with you about Les .. but Ray Mears .. alone? Not likely, he has as much crew around him as Bear, and what I've heard from people meeting him, he can be a bit of a wisea-- and center-of-attention guy. That's really sad. Great skills are only as good as the humility they come with, in my opinion. Sadly, there's no real non-comercialized survivalist out there. They all do their best to sell stuff or their knowledge as high as possible. Look at Dave C of Dual Survival. First he posted some videos for free .. but when he got enough followers .. all of a sudden he didn't even stop at just being a YT partner .. he started charging for people watching his videos as bad as any crappy WWF-on-demand fight on your tv.
*****
That has nothing to do with the production of the show. That's like saying .. "hey, he's had cancer .. he must be a good actor" about anyone. No correlation between the two.
Same for his products and knives. He may be a survivalist, but that does not mean he knows anything about steel or blade geometry. Good out door blades are best designed by out doors men, with an eye for design and engineering, not survivalist.
I would give anything to have Bear be my scout leader
same
Lmao....too funny
Bear Grylls is my favorite tool.
I appreciate what he has done for Scouting although here in America I wasn't aware of any of his involvement. Now, even though the American Scouting organization sort of discourages the use of a fixed blade knife, all of my Scouts are trained on and expected to have a camping fixed blade knife. There are too many camp chores that have as a centerpiece the fixed blade. Mostly I rec a Mora but if a Scout's parents can afford a more expensive knife I point them to several of the BK or Esee knives.
Velcro hold? JUNK!
not being mean but your proud of a knife that's not full tang and gerber made 2 more verisons of it because the first one sucked wow
ben gerling it if full tang
Never used any of the tools in the wild for 10 years, thanks bear
he is a cool guy when it comes right down to it
Ah let me list some downfalls serrations and blade bend, not full tang, shit steel, handle transfers shock and the worst of all its gerber and bear grills designed
The new version the bear grylls ultimate pro is way better though
+Chris Hall maybe but bear grills is a fraud and almost everything is scripted and many things he says are false and or could hurt you while serving
+Ek Motovlogs surviving
@@chrisavalon9926 it has garbage steel
this is bullshit, anyone winder why he started his series with a bayley knife and not a Gerber? it's because Gerber hasn't produced anything worth shut in years
I have the first knife. I've added paracord to the flint stick so it doesn't get lost. Also added 10ft paracord, fish hooks and lures, military can opener, water purification tablets, snare line and mini magnification glass to the sheath. It all fits great. The sheath's plastic casing though has a small split both sides and could have been made better, I've repaired it with duct tape. Other than that, it's a good solid survival knife.
where you can find that knife
@@saihky6897 discontinued bro
P
.😊as
Folding sheath knife so cool, need that mini scout too probably ;)
If you are interested by ANY of these products i urge you to look at some comparisons and some of the competitive models out there. Chances are you will find something better.
Exactly. If you are doing anything more serious than spreading butter, Don't buy a Bear Grylls Machete. They are complete Junk! Condor Engineer Bolo... Now that's a machete!
***** Chinese blades? You obviously haven't looked at the Condor Engineer bolo review on here... The steel is the same steel used to make rail road tracks. I know two people personally who had gerber machetes ... and the blade broke off at the handle.
I agree with you Gerber products are terrible these days, get a Cold Steel, an Ontario there so much better.
Yea right, made in China, 420HC steel, witch wont hold an edge and super soft. First thing choosing a survival blade, go with high carbon. Stainless will fail you.
Jason Huang Get a proper stainless steel like Japanese Cos and VG10 steel, or Swedish powdered stainless like Elmax and m390, those steels won't fail on you!
This blade has some problem, but not the steel.
I bought this and i looooooooove it. I luv it so much i slept with it for weeks when I first bought it :D
Bear is super convincing when introducing these tools....what to do?he is born survivor,I just can't resist believing him.....
he didnt use his own knives in his Tvshow fail
+Rock Charles Man v Wild was over before this made
+KirbySkillz Running wild with bear grylls ?
Rock Charles Well I thought you meant the more famous one.
+Rock Charles HE DID CHECK THE LAST SEASON OF THE MAN VS WILD!
+KirbySkillz its late , go to sleep
it breaks easy.NOT for hard work
I heard the parang was recalled at walmart
I wish I had a job like this one!!
Why the hell I am getting RUclips recommendation in August 2019 😂😂😂??
Fuck multi-tools... Here's my multi-tool.
I actually lold at this comment
Just bought the machete, Its awesome!
Great reviews Bear.
No offense but a Gerber product will never compete against Victorinox quality!
gerber is 1000 times better and price wise theres no match my gerber knife was £40 and victornaux was £8.80
+Paul Cushenan
Lol, I assume you're joking..
+Dominique Buzon
Swiss Army knife or (Victorinox)vs Gerber..... Ill take a Gerber over them any day. I think Swiss is a bit confused on their prices. $106 for a complete kitchen knife set or $40 for 1 kitchen knife lol. $30-$106 on a Army knife with a whole bunch of junk on it where the hinges will ware down on them. I find them to be very uncomfortable to handle and use.
Keith Hill A whole bunch of junk on it where the hinges will ware down on them? That's the perfect description of a fake SAK!
+Keith Hill Did you actually see once a Swiss Army Knife?
This knife is expensive piece of junk ....Better buy Hultaforcs carbon steel i personaly like knife what i can use for everythink and if i lost him i dont care price is under 4 euro so then buy newone and is also very good quality .
Yeah I have to agree. Hulfators, Mora and Bako all make traditional camp knives that are very cheap, but incredibly good quality. I have one of each. The Bako Wrecking knife (technically a builders tool) is as touch as a Mac Truck and comes in at under £20.
Yea true man , I got Mora pro S very good knife price under 15 euro and Hultafors HVK carbon steel 4 euro its one of best knife for me and also Hultaforcs stainless thoose knife are so good .They are craftsman knife but i think for camping,bushcrafting ,hunting ,fishing costruction for all works what u can do whith knife this is why i love them.
Tbh I never used to like them, but I kept seeing knife experts I respected casually referencing them as benchmarks whilst rating other knives. I finally checked them out and realised why they are so highly rated. I personally think its a Scandinavian thing: a Culture that has traditionally camped, fished and hunted for over a millennium, in a hostile environment where steel is scarce and a valuable commodity. They were forced to make the best knife, out of the steel they had, with the most economy, and with a grind that could be sharpened until the whole knife was worn away. A knife was for life back then. (hence the straight scandi-grind).
I recently bought the cheapest Hulfators knife I could find on amazon as an experiment ... it might be small, the back-side of spine has a rough finish... but for under 5euro ......christ.. you could survive with this knife. Its razor sharp, the blade grind is impeccable and whilst the sheath is cheap and plastic, its really solid and well designed. Its main strength is that its ALL knife. No frills and bullshit.. the money went into the blade and handle.
Terror RED_M expensive lol
Ever tried the glock fm 78?
you sir have made my day ;D
Ive owned lots of wood handle knives and Ive never seen one rot, but Ive seen a lot of plastic crack and a lot of rubber go all weird and crumbly with sun and exposure. You'd have to be a really great survivor to lsurvive long enough to see a wood handle actually rot before your eyes especially if you'd be using it at all
if that's your ultimate knife....you are completely fucked if you want a good knife bacho 2449
You got that right my man
He knocks multitools for having a bunch of "useless features", and then unveils a multitool with every single one of those "useless features" on it.
Bear grylls Gerber survival store is always going to be my favorite no madder what
I have the fire starter and it works like no other... AWESOME!
Avoid Bear's shit, useless steel that won't hold an edge. You're paying for his name, nothing else.
his firestarter looks pretty neat.
highly priced garbage.
It's actually pretty well made stuff
Bloodnuke67 _ no its shit against any knife ive ever tried
highly priced? what
gugli Price - quality wise it is shit
It brings you a lot closer. The boy scouts are all about experience, otherwise we wouldn't have campgrounds we use. Besides, the boy scout manual has all the basic stuff for survival.
respect for this man
NO go away! Back to Les Stroud and people who actually know what they are doing..
Scott Jones Yes you are sir.
You may know more than Bear Grylls, and that is fine! I applaud your infinite knowledge of survival. Still, that is no reason to verbally attack him by saying he doesn't know what he is doing. He obviously knows enough to have survived both his stint in the military as well as several expeditions to places that kill anyone who doesn't know what they are doing. On top of that, he really hasn't done anything to you personally, so why attack him?
Mandy Lou Considering he has on several occasions during his show done things that are against the most basic rules of survival and potentially would cause death or injuries if done in a survival situation. Not to mention the quality of the Gerber gear with the Bear Gryll's line is cheap and poor design that you can purchase better for cheaper. It is sad as I love Gerber. His military service also is not called to question on the methods he is teaching and the products he is offering.
The Papa Smurf
1. Bear Grylls is in a whole level above other survivors like Les Stroud. Les Stroud is jealous of Bear Grylls because he can't do the things that Bear can do. Les can't survive extreme situations. He can only survive in situations that he has a safe spot to make camp and enough water and food around to gather. If he had an accident, get trapped on ledge of a cliff, and lost all his belonging, he'll have no clue what to do. Bear, on the other hand, will show you how to improvise anything into a life saving tool, assess the situation, and make smart decisions, which dramatically increase the chance of survival.
2. Bear never do anything against the rules of survival. He always tell you how to avoid those dangerous situations, but he goes a step further by showing how to get out it in case you couldn't avoid it (which happens all the time). His shows are not about watching how he survive (that would be too easy), but it's rather about putting him in extreme situations so that he can show the kind of knowledge, and will power required to get to safety. Why? Because there are people die every year facing those kind of extreme situations. There are many hikers who are trapped in all kind of hell holes every years and most of them die because they don't know the right things to do. Bear put himself in all those situations and show how to get out of it alive in order to save those unfortunate people's lives. Like i said, Bear is in a league of his own. Don't even compare puny Les Stroud to mighty Bear Grylls.
Seyha Leonhartz No.
Bear Grylls shows are so action based so that they receive an audience, and much of what he shows you is staged (ie: hey watch me make fire with a bow drill - 5seconds later he's done), and the information is misleading. RUclips Trapper Jack. He'll show proper improvisation of tools and such.
Also, Bear Grylls never mentions the fact that usually the best way to survive is just staying put and spending as little energy as possible (like his army training teaches) and waiting for rescue. Instead he focuses on running about and doing stupid things like leaping cliff to cliff (imagine if he broke a leg - in a survival situation that's pretty much you screwed).
I have no hatred (in fact I respect him for his service) for the guy, I simply recognise that him and his show is mainly entertainment, and offer little practical survival instruction or knowledge.
If you want proof of this just look at his tools - they're pretty much all overpriced and some of them are literally just Gerber Products with his name on them and a new grip! Like his show most are just money spinners. Not actual survival tools. So while I like Bear, I'd take Ray Mears' knowledge (and equipment) over his anyday.
Don't buy this crap, it's dull as hell.
The machete I mean. The knives are fine.
you know machetes are duller bc its designed that way , its for chopping not fine cutting
+larsheuker First of all, a good machete should be rather sharp. And second of all, what I meant was that it comes without an edge.
Bear I'm a huge fan. You are much more about doing than talking so let a salesman make a short point on salesmanship which is not a shameful thing to not have developed and need adjusting. You developed great products with Gerber. When giving your viewers the skinny on the usefulness, value and reliability of your knives, multi tools, kits, etc.. focus your message rather on simply telling them just about the usefulness, value and reliability and let your genuine belief you have in your products come across. Shane Fazen, a good striking coach and yourself tend to use the message "You need this product" that you picked up watching infomercials. That's not how you would naturally come across, trust your instincts, try that and your products will get more word of mouth recommendations with better overall sales. A knife is an absolute must in a survival situation and you have an awesome show. Good luck.
I have, through discounted shopping acquired and love all the BG items. my favorite home knife for cooking is by Cutco. the spatula spreader with 3 edged diamond blades serrated is the best knife on the market.
Bear ,you rock ..............
i love Bear Grylls :D
I love that guy really.
yeah, they used bear grylls as an advertisement endorsement but his ultimate knife really is something. i love mine and you really cannot beat it for the price
This knife is awesome!!!
I love Bear grylls
good compact design in the sheath defo, but such a small blade for survival lol, how do you plan to process wood with a dagger
apreciate the information you gave me i will keep that in mind
