    I'm glad to see the SOG Seal Pup Elite with the straight edge and satin finish. That is one of my all-time favorite knives, period! I love the quality and the design.

    @mz9393mz Thanks for watching. I get 40 deers regularly in a season, and I enjoy processing deers using 2 knives on one deer, so I think I will be able to use every single knife alternately. I have already had enough number of great knives, however I am getting new knives. Using good knives is joy. I satisfy my basic greed there, so I don't spend money other than for knives. In that meaning this collection is not so expensive and not so bad I think. My family don't think so though.

    @EddieCubillo It is Kershaw Lahar. It's made of VG10, a kind of soft stainless steel. It's recurve is difficult to sharpen. It's a pretty bulky and heavy knife. So I don't love it very much now. Thank you!

    @LiFetommi Thank you very much. There are not so many knives which fit my taste. And when a knife is proven to be very good for me, I want one more the same knife with a different color or some. I just love knives, too.

  • @virtuovice
    @virtuovice  13 лет назад

    @rorybrocks I use water stones, Edge Pro fixed alignment sharpening system, and leather strops. The Edge Pro makes an excellent V edge, and if you polish the edge with a white compound loaded DLT leather strop paddle, the edge will go twice as sharp. The 800 and 4000 grit two sided water stone is good. The Scandi edge must be sharpened only on water stones, and it's very easy because the edge angle equals the bevels angle. It also need white compound loaded leather stropping after sharpening.

    @brithesaw Thanks. I love Bark River knives very much. I very recently got a STS-3. It seems great for deer hunting.

    good knives. Love your taste in knives. You do what i do and people think it's crazy, colour variation. If i like a knife design i usually buy them in different variations eg steels, handles and so on. I just love knives. I thank you very much for sharing and wish we can be friends

  • @virtuovice
    @virtuovice  12 лет назад

    @jgolf1212 It is the cKc Hiker hunter version with an elongated handle. It was made from a Svord peasant knife although its tang was full. Anyway it is a discontinued knife. Thanks.

  • @virtuovice
    @virtuovice  14 лет назад

    @mz9393mz I now don't use the Spyderco Stretch for hunting. Its blade shape is very similar to BladeTech Wegner Pro Hunter Magnum, however the angle between the blade and the handle is very different. In the stretch, the blade precedes the handle so that the blade must accept much resistance of the tissue during the skinning. Furthermore the point angle is a bit too shallow for getting the back muscles. That is why I don't use it for hunting. Though I love it for utility purpose. Thanks.

  • @Fretfeeler
    @Fretfeeler 11 лет назад

    You easily have the best collection of quality knives I've ever seen, especially when you add in your recent acquisitions like the Kellam Puukko, etc.!

  • @virtuovice
    @virtuovice  14 лет назад

    @vjanda1 Yes, I do it myself. The sharpening is a joy. I use Spyderco Sharpmaker for the V edge, and a leather strop with compounds for the convex edge. Thanks.

  • @virtuovice
    @virtuovice  14 лет назад

    @jauntin Yes, S1 gone. A bit long for hunting and a bit short and light for survival. I am now getting ESEE RC5 and KaBar Becker BK2 thinking of the sudden encounter with wild bears.

  • @virtuovice
    @virtuovice  13 лет назад

    @thebeatles4784 I am sorry that I sold out my CRKT Alaska knife recently in new condition. It was because its factory edge was dull and made of unknown steel, and I didn't think it was a good steel which would satisfy my demand. So I don't know how it works in deer dressing. Thank you!

  • @knivesandstuff
    @knivesandstuff 14 лет назад

    You have a great collection now. a Very reasonable size.. I have not done a collection update for a while.. perhaps I should.. mine is much smaller than people may think from all my videos. That BM Snody Activator is quite a nice design.

  • @GargamelThinks
    @GargamelThinks 12 лет назад

  • @virtuovice
    @virtuovice  12 лет назад

    A2 rolls and 3V chipps under a strong stress. 3V will hold twice longer on sharpness. But I prefer A2 because it is easier to restore. Chip restoration is hard and looses much metal. Thanks.

  • @kingstaff4
    @kingstaff4 11 лет назад

    I don't know why people care what others spend on a knife or how many they have. It's none of anyones damn business. Nice collection man, you must keep them real clean, because they sure are in good condish for you using them to hunt. A lot of them look unused. Good day

  • @virtuovice
    @virtuovice  13 лет назад

    @bigo57dean BlackJack M125, Bark River Fox River, JRE custom F1, Svord Drop Point Hunter ( which needs edge reprofiling ), Ontario RAT1 folder. One month has passed and I've already got 8 stag. They are impressive knives this season although 5 more months remain. Thanks.

  • @virtuovice
    @virtuovice  14 лет назад

    @tobeaSEAL Yes, I think so too. However gun carry outside the hunting season, and Knife carry over 6 inches are forbidden in Japan. And we have around 2000 brown bears in Hokkaido island, the very north of Japan. I have ever met bears in close range 3 times. Fortunatelly then they went away. I always carry a pepper spray and a knife in mountains, and think of giving him my left arm, and getting his life in return just with a knife ridiculously.

  • @virtuovice
    @virtuovice  13 лет назад

    @auradud3 It is the 2009 custom skinner and I remember it was around $150. I don't think it is a very good knife because of its edge geometry. Its belly portion on tip side is getting thicker to the tip. The A2 steel doesn't need that thickness which makes the edge duller. In short its edge geometry is more strong than sharp. Thanks.

    Great knife collection. Very nice choice in hunting knives.
    (Off topic- Japan made the best ("real") samurai knives (kantana & tano)). Your English/grammar is better than some Amer. here in the U.S. (some people are quick to criticize but haven't realize how difficult it is to learn another language.) Good Job. I also like your knife sharping vid's.

    My hunting knife collection is highly related to my deer hunting. I hunt 60 to 80 deer a season and dress all of them in the field. So the cost for the knives is not a wasting kind of thing. I have got almost all of my knives from the US or Europe websites. Thanks.

    @virtuovice  13 лет назад

    @WildLifeGuy308 In my experience so far I love 2 folders deeply. One is BladeTech Professional Hunter Magnum which is expensive. The other is Benchmade 551 Griptillian which is around 90 dollars. Less than that price I was not able to find a good knife for myself. The Benchmade 551 is a pretty good hunting knife. I have used it on deer many times and my love has deepened chance by chance. Thank you!

    @jauntin Surely it is impossible for me to choose just one knife for a single deer hunt.
    So I carry a couple of knives in my rucksack and a more couple of knives on my belt, which should sound crazy. However using various knives and thinking about their advantage or disadvantage in comparison is my joy. Just one knife is boring for me. I am not just a user nor a collector but a...
    Maybe I am doing the same way how you are doing. Thanks.

    I like your video's very much, one suggestion would be, look into the John Bradley Knives, you can find him under his name, carry sharp 52100 but he Austempers his knives a excellent may to temper knives, he made me a camp knife 4 1/4" with desert ironwood handle,not only is it beautiful but it became my favorite knife, and like you I have a few knives, check him out and check out what Austempers is, I really like your knives too.

  • @virtuovice
    @virtuovice  14 лет назад

    @jesseyarnell Hi, I understand your feeling that the handle of the F1 should be more cosmetic. I guess you have ever seen the blank F1 blade which has a wide full tang for custom makers. I believe the wide full tang and the handle scales move the balance point to the butt side. The regular synthetic handled F1 with narrow tang is balanced very well. So on the F1 you had better go for the regular version in my opinion. In contrast, on Barkies you can enjoy the handle variation very much.

    @jinnaraka What you are saying sounds strange to me. We hunt deer with guns and get meat with knives. And there are good hunting knives and not very good knives out there. I am a knife user and a collector. I am a deer hunter and want to know which knife is good or not very good. I believe what I am doing is very normal and it will be useful for hunters and knife collectors. I have used every single knife of mine at least once or twice on deer and I can tell something on it. This is my hobby.

    Beautiful hunting knives but, I really like that third knife. I think it was a Bark River gamekeeper, it had the green handle. Are all of your knives convex grind? Since others have suggestions I will say take a look at the EKA Nordic W12 hunter. Thanks for the video.

    @rorybrocks In less expensive range, I highly recommend you Enzo Trapper selling at Brisa website. They provide 3 kind of steels, AUS8, O1 and D2, and 2 kind of grind, flat grind with V edge, and Scandi edge. Their micarta handles have good traction. They have colored liners between the stock and scales. Their sheath is excellent. I personally love O1 carbon steel and Scandi edge. It's easy to go scary sharp with a compound loaded leather strop, and retains its sharpness long.
