I love how Joe focuses entirely on the testing task at hand, not even caring if he gets the name of the blade correct. _He is a man of focus, commitment, and sheer f***ing will._
I have that one, it gave me my gnarliest scar. Took a weird bounce when cutting up a chunk of tree for a fire and caught me on the wrist. Saw bone on that bad boy.
I had that happened to one of my kukri machetes while I was doing some clearing… the handle partially busted off. I just wrapped it duct tape… it would’ve cost the same to ship it back for warranty as it did when I bought it..
@wellregulated8725 Interesting and surprising. Freezing cold does make those handles brittle. In other Joe X video's it can be seen. But the cs kukri machete handle has more flex than the cs bowie machete handle, which is harder. Hence my surprise on the cs kukri machete handle popping off.
I hope you're fine. It might look like I'm doing nothing, but I keep thinking & preparing & I will soon light up my forge to do some tests to make a combat knife like you know. :)
This is why I am an Old Cold Steel Fan Boy! I have a large collection of the old "Made in South Africa" stamped 1055 Carbon Steel products and I have seen some of them do extremely well in the Joe X's testing.. like the Jungle machete.. and some have much stronger more durable handles than others. When it comes to these old Cold Steel 1055 Carbon Steel blades.. I think they are ALL going to bend.. but they will NOT snap and break.. and you will always be able to beat them back into shape and take a stone to the edge.. and still have a useable blade in the field - just dont shoot them and swiss cheese them! The Cold Steel Black Bear Bowie machete is much better than this Cold Steel Bowie machete in my opinion.. but it still did pretty fantastic!
I got mine a long time ago Joe X and when I lived in Florida it was great. I saw it cut wet/soggy bamboo well! I still have it in Colorado and no issues still. I can't comment on the newer versions quality. MARLBORO!
I don't always buy blades that hold up well after Joe X tests them. But when I do, I buy alot of them! Buying alot of these! $17 on amazon at this moment here in the USA with free shipping!
I have the cutlass machete 1055 version for a 2 year, it hasn't let me down yet, I've been using it quite a lot and it's a fantastic tool for clearing thick bushes and great for stabbing bigfoot too if u know what I mean lol.
La fábrica de hace esos machetes indestructibles en sudáfrica se llama LASHER y aún hacen esos tipos de machete (como los kukri). Saludos Joe X, estás loco y eso es genial 😂. Gracias por el video
These CS SA blades come from a different philosophy for sure. Sure the hardness/edge retention is basically cookie dough😂 but the stock is thin enough to slice while dull (with enough force) and bendable enough not to break under extremes. It won't compete with a K390/N690/3V for edge stability, but it definitely has it's place in the zombie armageddon war. Anymore, I'm coming to appreciate these super affordable blades that flex instead of snap and you can sharpen w/ a rock and get 80% there and the thinness of the rest of it makes up for the other 20%. Well done JOE X!!! Now to see if I can find this one anywhere that hasn't already been replaced w/ Chinese 65MN garbage!
I prefer tough, sharp tips. That is one of my check points on my knives, they must always have s sharp tip to cut through plastic bags with very little pressure.
Yo Joe. Sure you've been told a million times, but Chris Tanner over at prepared mind 101 has told Vick at workTuff to get a JX Omega V2.0 to you somehow - Chris says contact Vick. Pom Fritta.
Last i asked to test the CS Laredo Bowie ... now i found another bad Boy ... the CS Chaos Bowie with Knuckles 😂😂😂👍🏻 bad fighting knife for sure ... the laredo both edges sharp too ... Made for fighting i think ...
Me gustan las hojas cold steel, se doblan pero no se rompen 😂, eso asegura seguir teniendo una herramienta de corte, aun después de los impactos de 5,56😂😂. Salu2 estimado Joe
Tenho dois desses. Uso pra pescar. Dá uma tremenda paz de espírito ter um desses no cinto. Muito confortavel de manejar. Se nao tivesse contra fio na ponta seria bem mais resistente.
I own 2 copies of this knife. One I got as a present from 10 years ago and one this year and the quality has definitely dropped since then. This one's for you GSM 🖕
This knife|machete cries for some desparte attention! Imagine situation where in some french cooking tv show chef brings this knife to cut some cabbage 🥬😅! Or in wedding party you use this knife to cut some cute cake 🎂🔪🥧🍰. And reaction will be 😳🤯😲😯
Хороший канал, который учит технике безопасности. И самое удивительное, что человек пытается совершить суицид на протяжении многих видео. Начни стрелять в нож с пистолета с большего градуса, например с 15. Чтобы наверняка был рикошет в голову.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Another great ASMR video !! ☝☝😆 By the way - did you think / try to sell those rests of knives - you tested / SHOT, or some companies get / buy it from you - further research... ?
wäre ds Ding nicht so ultradünn ausgeführt wärs ein zacher Prügel und echt fast unzerstörbar. Aber so ohne genug Fleisch ist es halt zu schnell plastisch verformbar.
That knife didn't chop that tree. The atoms from that tree moved away from that shitty edge of that blade 😂 That blade is too thin for that type of work. Looks like a cheap stamped replica knife from China 🤦♂️
STICKMAN!!! you don't have the balls to visit austria!!!!
i think so too!
Is Stick and T trying to fight Joe?
He can send those pussies in Stick's video's to Joe.
For doing some consensual exercises.
I love how Joe focuses entirely on the testing task at hand, not even caring if he gets the name of the blade correct. _He is a man of focus, commitment, and sheer f***ing will._
thanks brohter!
Joe X died once. He woke up to adjust the pillow
amen!
I have the South African made Smatchet , so never bought the bowie. The Smatchet is the bomb. Thanks again JOEX and have a super weekend.
thannks!
I have that one, it gave me my gnarliest scar. Took a weird bounce when cutting up a chunk of tree for a fire and caught me on the wrist. Saw bone on that bad boy.
ok!
Old CS fans should rename CS knives to GS(gas station) knives
i am one of them!
Lmfao. Facts!!! They've gone to hell in a fkn hand basket. I'll never buy another one. Fkn garbage
LOL!!!!!!
I prefer BS knives
@@rando27enco what You mean under BS?
I've got that bowie over ten year's,i did not know it was so strong. Thanks joe!!!
cool!
I had that happened to one of my kukri machetes while I was doing some clearing… the handle partially busted off. I just wrapped it duct tape… it would’ve cost the same to ship it back for warranty as it did when I bought it..
for the price this one was ok1
@@joex oh yeah, you can’t beat it for the price
Was it freezing when the handle popped off?

It took a hell of a lot of punishment. Much better SA quality than the crap 65mn. 1055 for the win.

All my Cold Steel is pre 2015, I intend to keep it that way! Lots of it I intend to sell, the price goes up every day 😎👌💯

It's funny how those cheap knives do better then those of 300+ or 400+ euros.

I think everyone, especially my grandma, would like to see you test the cold steel arming sword. I kiss your glans brother.

Better bent then broke 😂
yeah!
You don't understand, Cold steel puts detachable handles on their machetes 😂. Puzzle handles.
maybe!
You can't break what will always bend.
thats what she said!
Pre-GSM rules! We dont want that 65Mn china Stuff!!! Yes it bends yes it isnt superb at edge holding - but its nearly ukaputtbar!!!
agree!

Almost everything Cold Steel makes is hot garbage. There's only two Cold Steel products that are actually worth a shit and they're both folders.
if u say so u must be right!
