[zombiek23]

lulz, I hit a brick. BAD IDEA :P



[carlyle0229]

that machete sucks, the ghurkha kukri is way better

[Vi3tSurvivalist2012]

@carlyle0229 isnt that like $200 more?

[carlyle0229]

@Vi3tSurvivalist2012 no your thinking of the cold steel gurkha kukri, which is not an authentic kukri, the real ones are about maybe 50 to 100, but nothing over 200, i love cold steel, they make a great knife, but they are way over priced,

[Gent1911]

All Cold Steel machete blades are of 1055 carbon steel, which is pretty good however ALL blades come with an UTILITY edge= somewhat DULL, I believe they do it to protect themselves from legal troubles, the utility edge will do quite a few chores but I believe most buyers will get their machetes a bit sharper, I have 8 so far and to a 1 came on the dull side, now they are quite the opposite BTW the Katana machete is just GREAT! Try one!

[Sudz1911]

did you shit a brick after hitting one?

[themarc190]

could you post a video of how you sharpened it? im having a little bit of trouble, thanks

[lougnut]

Just ordered mine

[UpNorthLiving2011]

just got one same one! and the two handed one as well :P

[MistaTease]

figure out what your going to say before you film your movie

[KHRSace]

Nice mods, especially love the paracord. As for the area where you hit the brick, take a file to it and work out those burrs!

[HeroSavage]

Is that a blood stain at top right?

[daleboyrdm]

is the entire knife solid metal like the True flight thrower?

[Pupil0fGod]

though inexpensive and light , this khukri machete is nothing like the real deal. I've used a proper khukri (from nepal made by locals) those beast weigh a half ton but I've seen what the can do.  take the blade to cinder blocks and it is still sharp enough to shave finally it goes through 6 inch thick trees in two swipes no joke. the power of a khukri is not only in the unique shape but also the thick continuous convex blade that can smoothly cut through almost any material without catching.

[with33]

its a great knife for 25 dollers mine came sharp though but outher than that same as urs

oh and did your handle start to come lose cause mine did after a hike was easy fix but just curios

[bubbapoiu]

song?

[sgtclam]

@bubbapoiu

paint it black - The Rolling Stones

[Grimkov]

@sgtclam

Love this song.

[Sarnarath]

@sgtclam did you melt the end of the paracord of did you use somekind of glue for it?

it looks awesome.

[TheiTouchGuys]

could u cut someones head off with it ? ( soon as u got it , before u sharpned it?)

[sgtclam]

@TheiTouchGuys Not before I sharpened it. In its current sharpness it could do some serious damage, ive never cut off a head before but I'm sure you could

[TheHunterHatfield]

@sgtclam Actually, The duller the blade the more chance you have of cutting a limb off lol

[sgtclam]

@TheHunterHatfield Ive heard that in WWI, trench knives were "dull" at the tip so they would deflect off bones rather than get stuck in them. Is that the same reason?

[radioguy55]

@sgtclam that was actually to cause the knife to not get stuck in bones and cause the holder to be killed or wounded while trying p pull it out.

[morgan191]

@sgtclam trench knifes were more of a spike design, as they were meant to be driven though the helmet and into the brain, so no the tip would not be dull. of course there are more conventional knife variant as well.

[buffmann91]

@TheHunterHatfield why samari swords so sharp then?

[TheHunterHatfield]

@buffmann91 It takes power to actually cut a limb off with such a sharp sword. The blades are also pretty thin so it'll take even more power.

[codydean10]

@TheiTouchGuys seeing one of these makes me want to go hog hunting...

[getnthevanihavecandy]

exact same as mine, sharpened and wrapped in para chord.

except your handle wrap is shit. Instead of burning it together, there is a simple way to fold one strand under and secure it.

[lacrossman190]

thats a feild knife not a machete

[BalGreene]

Vice video dude. I bought on about 3 weeks ago. I'm very happy with it.

[Flit31]

i have the same exact machete they are low price high performance over all good blades, the handles are tough but one thing DO NOT USE FOR CHOPPING WHILE COLD i did this and the handle snapped apart like a freaking cookie haha still highly advised. i am currently purchasing the kukri magnum to replace it.

[YouMockMe]

I prefer ka-bar... the factory blade wasn't that bad at all but to be honest I choose the parang machete and it took down a tree with little effort.

[sgtclam]

you mean the Ka-Bar kukri style machete/knife or the fighting knife?

[YouMockMe]

i mean the the "parang machete"... its the same thing but without the curve while still retaining the blade shape. Its the same thing SAS uses. Also including the fact it was a Ka-Bar and not ColdSteel.

[mavue]

can you do a tutorial on the handle wrap? i really like the way it looks.

[sgtclam]

I just sorta wrapped it around, no special loops or anything. I just started at the top and swirled around. Like wrapping string around a pencil.

[SigfridVonBashthings]

Hmm, your...big. Anyways did you do the paracord wrapping youself? What knot did you use?

[sgtclam]

yea i wrapped the paracord myself, but I didn't use any special knots. I mostly relied on melting the paracord together at the ends. So far it's held up well.

[SigfridVonBashthings]

You have a big arm....

[sgtclam]

I'm 6' 3"
