hey man nice video, was wondering if the end of that could be used to open bottles. im a beginner knife maker and was thinking about a handle clip like that one but wider and square.
Real nice, but I'd prefer my 20" bladed Cheness ko-katana (chisa katana), because you can get two hands on it... or better yet, my cold steel assegai spear blade that I mated to my homemade shovel handle - yes a D-handled short shovel handle - ultimate close quarters non-gun combat weapon. But that thing is much prettier.
@kickingbird2012 you woulnd't post the comment if you didn't mean to offend, seeing as this is 2 years ago, and its not live TV, so your comment can have no value. lets also add that I'm pretty sure I have more concern for her safety than a stranger watching my video, and she is clearly not too young to obey me as evidenced by not walking into my blade. regards.
@Ozjourneyman There are a million weapons that could be considered a tool first "dummy";what I said was this knife is a weapon and that means I believe it was a "tool" for chopping down people not brush get it?The guy is stoned so you have to baby step with him otherwise his clouded brain doesn't get it.
knives short or long blah blah blah hit the bong again or pop another personality killer,everyone else understands but you.
@azelmish im pretty sure that a katana would break as it is designed for, if i am correct, fighting purposes? while this blade is clearly called 'bush sword' so its made for camping/wilderness purposes, i think anyway lol2
@blitzspeer I hate to break it to you but all knives be they long or short are weapons. Don't let this revelation dim your view however because they are in fact an implement and by definition a tool. A soldiers toolkit consists of weapons after all.
@azelmish Based on your very short inexperienced comment my answer would hold no value to you. suffice it to say that the average blade you are referring to would break while this was still working hard. in Japanese this is a Katana.. Katana is a generic word meaning long blade. what you probably meant to say was a Nihonto. But this blade is the size of a wakazashi.
@nolideleon2010 Of course you would agree. you are the same idiot child from phillipines. :) you are also blocked because you are clearly a baby, and this is adults only.
@FrikkenChicken hehe. she was young back then, and while attentive the last thing I need is my poor girl jumping just while I demo swing the blade :D Wrong kind of testing!
@hockeyluver93 Thanks.. its a really impressive performer.. takes 1.5" bamboo cuts without even trying. I'm just building the prototypes now of its smaller brother (the Turmoil) which is a 14" blade.
@iAmTheSurvivalist LoL. it performs very well. there are some videos demonstrating how well it works. also, you can look for "ckc Dragon" which is my D2 sword I make.
Hey Ky, I was wondering if you have had any experience with the swamp rat waki. I just ordered one today, because I need a heavy duty blade for bushcraft for the upcoming hunting season; as there is no way that I am going to chip up my cold steel Gurkha Kukri (VG1 is so overrated). What do you think of SR-101 steel, and the swamp rat waki?
@RebelWrestler45 Hey Mate. I'm not a fan of the Waki, but dont let that knock you as I've not handled one. the steel they use is absolutely awesome .Like most of their knives, it may need a little reprofiling before you'll see the best of it. For me, I just feel that the blade length to handle ratio is all out of proportion. Heavy Duty it will be and I hope you enjoy it.. do a video if you can. if it was 3" more blade and 3" less handle I'd have got one :) Now I just make my own :)
@knivesandstuff Yeah, it does seem that the balance point will not be favorable to heavy chopping because of the extra long handle; but hopefully the blade length and overall heft will make up for it. Thanks again Ky.
whats the steel? (looks to be stainless) and it looks to have a convex grind? whats its use? as a bush knife i dont know why you want a rounded back edge, makes it hard (read imposable) to strike a spark
@HomeDistiller Why an earth would I want to strike a sparc with a 17" blade? I carry a 0.5gram fire striker for that, or I'd use a smaller blade. watch the other vids if you want to see how this is used. its not stainless. Stainless would be completely useless and shatter. its a mirror polished 5160. As a Draw knife I certainly dont want a sharp jagged edge on the knife spine.
@knivesandstuff so if you lose your striker? then you will have to dull a section of your blade to strike a spark and as a draw knife you could easily have a section near the base to strike a spark and not affect the draw knife capabilities of the blade
@HomeDistiller if i lost my striker id still have my 3" blade. if i lost that, then dulling 2mm on a 17" blade wont effect performance. apart from that. i dont really use strikers at all anyway.. lol.. if I lost my striker, ive lost my steel because they are tied together.. so its a moot point. i can always make a bow drill. I dont like sharp spines and they have never been something I want or require. each to their own though. This is hardly a one knife does it all.. there is no such thing.
@wolfie83 lol.. what would you do to the mirror finish. I've had this blade for a year and I use it every week for cutting practice and chop though bottles, trees, water etc.. its certainly got its share of scratches, bit its still got a mirror polish :) there is some mild patina in a few places.
@wolfie83 Well, apart from digging I'd say fair enough, but none of those would ruin the polish.. you just have to clean and oil them. Why would you risk damaging your blade digging? takes about 2 minutes to carve a wooden shovel of similar size as a knife that will work as well or better without the risk of chipping your knife on stones. Not critical.. its a serious question. regards.
@knivesandstuff i just play around with techniques other wilderness and survival guys test out on bladeforums...and in my experience mirror finishes never last, the eventually scuff up etc (then I put them to a neat satin finish, seems to last longer). Even Jerry Busse's awesome INFI pieces suffer the bane of surface scratching and loss of the original finish...nature of the beast, I do have some though that I use conservatively to keep them in good finish.
@wolfie83 I Understand. The Mirror finish was not done for looks though. it is a simple fact of physics that the smoother the finish the less friction exists and the better a blade will cut, and deeper (all other things being equal) So while the finish may patina, or scratch etc.. its still going to have a finish that is smoother, and more resistant to corrosion and friction free. Getting a mirror finish is actually functional more than vain ;)
@knivesandstuff oh i agree, hence why most tend to strop their edge for that mirror finished edge...and I will say again this is a very nice knife! they do great work from the others I have seen.
@wolfie83 Yeah. Justin at Ranger is just a plain awesome dude and his prices are excellent. Best service in the business. His blades can be a bit beefy like a bussy. but it depends what you ask for. you really cant go wrong with one of his blades.
@tapeworm1111 Dude, I think you didnt read all the comments carefully before posting this one. The original weight was 700grams, and is now 650grams. What we were talking about was the SALE VALUE if I was to sell it.. I said its WORTH $700 Dollars. LoL.. just a coincidence in the 700 that may have confused you.
@mwillblade email John Lundemo at odinblades and ask him :) custom swords are not cheap...and what does age have to do with anything? the older you get the less you have to spend on frivolous objects.
@mwillblade insulting the pricing of custom smiths is in general poor form, John Lundemo put his heart into making me my sword and charged a very fair price.
@drewsisely Hi, I'm glad you like this knife. its a beast. I designed it and had Ranger Knives USA make it. As to selling it.. its worth about $700USD.
Just an update, I ordered a self-designed Waki-style sword from Justin. He is indeed a great guy. The sword is in the mail as we speak. For HT he had to send it out, because my design exceeded 23" but otherwise he did an incredible job. Once I receive I will do a review. Justin deserves a lot of credit and fame.
well, each is individually made.. so "similar" could effect cost in a big way.. depending on options like mirror finish.. think $350 - $500US and contact Ranger Knives, Justin is one of the best guys to deal with.
Thx man. I've been considering a Ruck from Busse, or the Waki from SRKW, but this is a serious option too. You get EXACTLY what you want. There's just that INFI thing... ;)
Yep.. 17" I call it a Bush Sword, and it is a knife.. Sword and Knife, its all about intent. a sword is simply a knife designed for war. this is a knife designed for bush clearance, which would work very well as a sword.. its a fun blade.
No, Likely It will be hardwood. I've just sent the blade to Svord NZ to get a few modifications done.. Costs too much to send it back to Justin. after I get it back in a week or 2, I will build a sheath.. Modern Saya.
It's shiny! I'm confused, Isn't that maker in NZ? Why is there a US Postal logo on the packaging? I think this the first time I've seen your face, or your kid's...
His turn around time depends on how many projects he is working on I guess. I got in at a good time, and the turnaround was 2-3weeks.. it took 1 week just to get a particular colour liner.
you can take it to the park when you have a 3 year old girl, dont have tatooes and dont appear drugged to la la land.. the video camera also identifies a purpose that makes people not care in the slightest.. its actually quite legal to carry NON concealed items with good reason.. I would say doing a movie, or Martial arts training are good excuses
hehe good point there kylie. also being a little older would draw alot less attention, a teenager doing something like this would get into a world of trouple. as i said, very nice knife, looking over the video again as i type this and loving it more :)
More videos uploading now.. I love this blade.. I love the design.. I think my design is excellent and good working.. Although, I should have stuck with the initial design thickness of 3/16" and it would be a better blade. at 1/4" its still great.. but not as great as 3/16" for actual use. Its mostly going to be collection though.. so 1/4" looks damn fine. It makes an awesome shortsword
hey man nice video, was wondering if the end of that could be used to open bottles. im a beginner knife maker and was thinking about a handle clip like that one but wider and square.

DrTadHusseinWinslow 1 month ago
It seems well made, well balanced with an ergonomic, simple handle design.
.
the survival usability is questionable other than for cutting low branches and vegetation.
. it doesn't have the maneuverability of a knife for carving and it doesn't have the chopping action of an axe and it's not a saw.
.
it's a very short weapon, still without the option of easy concealed carry.

hehe good point there kylie. also being a little older would draw alot less attention, a teenager doing something like this would get into a world of trouple. as i said, very nice knife, looking over the video again as i type this and loving it more :)

More videos uploading now.. I love this blade.. I love the design.. I think my design is excellent and good working.. Although, I should have stuck with the initial design thickness of 3/16" and it would be a better blade. at 1/4" its still great.. but not as great as 3/16" for actual use. Its mostly going to be collection though.. so 1/4" looks damn fine. It makes an awesome shortsword
