Les Stroud (Survivorman) Helle Temagami Knife Test

[NocheeseSherlock]

I don't like the kitchen look to it but I love its sharpness!

[ja2595]

by the way, to anyone trying to test the sharpness of your blades, avoid cutting paper and cardboard. those are both great ways to dull the edge.

[JacobGoodwinMusic]

About to cut poison Ivy. First gonna pull back my sleeve.

[guldahlrahmi]

Helle knifes are one of the best overall knife brands if you ask me, i have the Helle GT resemble the safari but with a shorter choil. Im always stropping mine and when i get home its to dull to shave, but has no problems sliceing through paper.. And thats not bad.

[keanoman1000]

think it passed the survival test then, i'v been thinkin about gettin one of them,

[guyfihi]

Obviously a good knife, but I have to say my $10 Mora cuts paper like that.

[catascouts]

Sweet knife! What camera did u use for shooting this? Thanks!

[StevenSlaterBA]

This video makes me cringe... not because of the knife, but because i'm worried he is going to cut himself if he keeps swinging his knife around like that

[andris4]

@StevenSlaterBA I have actually cut my finger into the bone with a similar knife from Helle, wouldn't recomend it... lol

[k9marinechad]

Im confused, was this a kitchen knife review or a survival knife review...

[AdventureLifestyleTV]

@k9marinechad I'm sure you could use it in the kitchen if you like.

[RECONDO101st]

That scandi edge can be beat.

[phychmasher]

@RECONDO101st lol what a random and vague statement.

[RECONDO101st]

@phychmasher It would take a retard to respond like that.

[Rastel888]

how you move so quick



[quexalcoatl]

...but can it cut through my shoes?

[AdventureLifestyleTV]

@quexalcoatl there's a pretty good chance. mail them to me and i'll test it.

[akadj1]

how much does cost please respond

[AdventureLifestyleTV]

@akadj1 Go check Les's site.

[Fadsmashers]

WIth this and a silky bigboy saw you are set for life!

[econnofoot]

good test I so want to pull the trigger on one of these if they'd get tad cheaper.

[mukatsukuful]

@econnofoot It's now selling much cheaper at Amazon for $128. Not a bad price.

[OmegusDakga]

I guess you're from Canada right? The reason i say this is because you already own the knife and they only sell it in Canada right now.. right?

[AdventureLifestyleTV]

@OmegusDakga Actually I live in the U.S. the Adventure Lifestyle Blog works directly with Helle knives. I got the unique opportunity to receive one of the first production model Temagami knives off the line and present a detailed look to YouTube.

[schamby67]

@OmegusDakga These knives are now available in the US (currently July 2011). I've seen them on Les Stroud's website as well as several other internet outlets. Hoping to get one of my own soon!

[virtuovice]

This series was pretty persuading to me for gettint the one. The size comparizon and the performance test. Great job!!

[GoldenTrout4]

y do you count so much

[hawkatro]

Man that looks sharp!

[Romanlegionnaire77]

ANY EDGE PROBLEMS? LIKE CHIPS OR BLADE ROLLIN?

VERY NICE REVIEW!

[AdventureLifestyleTV]

@Romanlegionnaire77 no problems whatsoever with the blade to report. If any problems arise they will be brought up here. I can't stress enough that this blade really had a razor edge out of the box (and still does).
