You are Not Culturally insensitive or arrogant you are American!!. There is nothing wrong with pronouncing it our way. We live in America we pronounce things the way we have heard them growing up. And you were correct anyway!. We have WAY bigger things to worry about anyway!. Excellent video Sir.
I think that's a very good looking knife, and it seems to perform quite well! I agree with you on the choil, would rather see the edge brought back further with just a small sharpening choil, but that's just personal preference. Thanks for the demonstrations, buddy.
Awesome video, you are spot on and don't worry about complainers! Your one of the most humble and honest RUclips hosts going. Love me some knife stuff, keep em coming sir. Stay safe and God bless
Toward my hand holding the ferry rod. If I use the spine the edge is opposite my hand. If you prefer using the choil, go for it. I think it is a waste of blade real estate.
A Choil Defined: Purpose A choil is an unsharpened indent on a blade where it meets the handle or at the plunge line. The size of a choil dictates its purpose, if it's large then it can be used as a forward finger grip. If it's small then the choil may be there to creat a stopping point when sharpening, to protect the handle. If the knife is sharp including the choil? You better wear Kevlar gloves on the Index finger.
#1 thanks for the decompression and the calm that comes with a good knife review, no idea why I'm so jacked up here lately-yeah right! Come on man........ so bit larger than I'd like to carry around but what a worker! Very nice
Great review. An American made version similar to this design that I would be VERY interested to see you review (balance testing and all) is the Tops Silent Hero knife. Most of the other knife channels have taken a look at it but I’d like to see you put it through its paces in your unique style. Thanks for always bringing us great content on something we all love, and I’ll keep watching you do your GA boy stuff from here in TN. God bless.
But why sacrifice your fine bushcraft capabilities by having the edge so far from the grip when the spine works so well with a fero rod? I'm with Brian on this one.
Another great video! I actually don't mind choirs. I grip my knives close to the blade,and using a finger choil tends to give better control of the knife. Might just be my imagination, but works for me. Take care and keep up the great work!
I tuned in to see if you was growing the beard or going respectable. Glad to see still going Wildman. Nice blade was the sheath reversible. A lot of knives are nice but most are only made for righthand people. I choose to be insensitive. Feeling don't matter. Soon as the younger generation realizes that the better things will be.
I hit 👍three times and it darkened like suppose to and number of likes advanced, however it immediately went back down a number and 👍 went back to just an outline! Thought you’d like to know
@@SurvivalOnPurpose I wasn’t clear. It took three times of it acknowledging, and then taking the count away before it held. Heck, it may be just my phone🤷♂️
@@SurvivalOnPurpose agreed and I actually like the knife but not the sheath. We’re from a generation that any knife worth its salt had a leather sheath. Then we got the 80’s pleather sheath and onto the 90’s nylon. I really didn’t like the Kydex at first but it’s grown on me. Lightweight and versatile. Zip ties to chest rig or battle belt securely with just about any orientation one can imagine. My comment was based on the statement “…only thing not leather is plastic loop.” Which was immediately followed by something concerning nylon. So I must conclude that there’s more non leather than what was stated. Kinda bummed out because these reviews are super helpful except when they fail in a description. Now I’m left asking how much more nylon isn’t mentioned. Idk. More my hang up than anything else. I’m a stickler for details.
Culturally insensitive, huh? So what? If you were mispronounceing it on purpose with the intent to be disrespectful, I could understand. But you had it correct. So all the haters can suck sand. Nice knive, though. Looks like it could do the job and then some.

Love my Jeotech knives
Maybe the choil is that size was designed for striking a fero rod.

I am impressed by the slab batoning. I don't know whether it's you or the knife, but I am impressed!
Love mine. Its a Beast 💪
That is a great looking knife and it is well built too and it's owners should be so proud to own such a wonderful tool.
It would be nice if Jeo Tec had them in stock. The parent alternative CDS Fox Knives has a similar one without the choil.
Awesome video, you are spot on and don't worry about complainers! Your one of the most humble and honest RUclips hosts going. Love me some knife stuff, keep em coming sir. Stay safe and God bless
Bryan, I like that knife. You might need some Rogaine for your arm lol.
Stay safe
Glad to see this video. I have been looking at this particular knife for a long time!!! The Jeo-Tec knives look awesome!!!!
The point of the toil is for fire steel. Watch fire and fero rod videos. There are many of them.
I would rather use the spine. It keeps your fingers away from the sharp edge of the blade and works great.
@@SurvivalOnPurpose think about at your answer for a while. Edge towards what?
Toward my hand holding the ferry rod. If I use the spine the edge is opposite my hand. If you prefer using the choil, go for it. I think it is a waste of blade real estate.
You could probably use that choil to scrape the fero rod.

Thanks for another great review .I buying it .
Glad to help
Love that fat-wood. That is why CA burns so well. Almost all the forests are Ponderosa Pine. Like Jeo-tec

I see you got the BOARD testing out of the way first!
Thanks for the review, I have been eyeing up this knife but that choile turns me off. Like you, I would love to know the reasoning behind it.
I quite like that knife. Great build quality.😎✌️
I like it ! A lawt !
Just noticed I was not subscribed , when I was before 😮
i like the blade
Yep, Brian is right . That choil is for looks ,its ill placed and a wast of edge.
The knife looks to be very Good. Your evaluation was also well done.

That small finger coil for ferrorod
But why sacrifice your fine bushcraft capabilities by having the edge so far from the grip when the spine works so well with a fero rod? I'm with Brian on this one.
Very nice, thanks. Been looking at these Spanish blades since your reviews. Might give it a shot. COVID whiskers? ;-) Semper Fi

Can the choil be used to strike a feral rod ?
Only domesticated rods.
@@vinsonparkhill752 thanks
Believe I'm going to be buying one of those soon
On Amazon they have an upgraded version of the model 39 with a kydex sheath... which is unbeatable!
Knife fire 🔥 👍🏻
Would love to see a review on the Ka-bar BK2
Looks like a great knife for a great price.
nice knife, I like it too.
How much does it cost?
Jeo Tec no.55 please
Try use it for striking the rod Brian??!!??finger choil....
Good review. I think they should have used a metal connector instead of a plastic one. Con.
👍

Nice blade was the sheath reversible. A lot of knives are nice but most are only made for righthand people.

please review the Tops Nata and the medford usmc raider (:
IT WILL THROW!!!
Like, all over knife 🔪
Jeo-Tec 39 or 37? Is the tip stronger on the 39?

every time you hit the Like button it switches from you previous choice. It's like a toggle. Hit it just one time again and see what happens

Can you do a fish video, from freshly catched to campfire cooked?
That would assume I can catch a fish ;-)
Jeo Tec no.55 please
“The only thing not leather is this plastic loop…and if that broke I’m sure you could thread something through this nylon.” Ohhhhhh kay?
Just calling it like I see it. I doubt very many people use the leg tie down anyway.

the choil is for a firesteel
Yes those choils make no sense to me!
Stay culturally insensitive. I’m from Cuba cultural insensitivity is a way of life! 😄
3rd
hmmmm ok
Not as cool as a handmade Indian knife Yogesh, but still a good blade ;-)
@@SurvivalOnPurpose I dont like that choile on blade
Me either
@@SurvivalOnPurpose Any way, My semi production knife will be start in next 2 month
Very cool. Let me know if I can help you.
