440C on a knife of that price? You gotta be kidding me..

[cutlerylover]

made in the USA, good heat treat plus sub degree quenching as well...dont knock 440C its been the best stainless blade steel for decades...

That tree was my MOM!!

They make a sort of tar/glue you can paint over the wound in the tree. That seals off the part damaged so insects can't attack the inside of the tree. I bet you got alot of tree lover hate mail. Maybe spreading that covering on the hacked area would pacify them? It did kind of make me sad...

[cutlerylover]

yes I got alot of tree huggers messaging me who didnt watch the whole video, I stated more than once the tree was a standing dead tree, I should have showed it, but the top half was broken off from a storm, it was dead/dying, thats why I hacked at it...I know not to cut down live trees for fun, lol...

sweet i realy like these typs of vids please do more

[shonuffisthemaster]

Is that twig ironwood or something? If not that knife looks pretty damn blunt to me!

[SuperR3volver]

how does this one hold an edge, I am looking for a bush craft knife for around a 100 bucks, I was looking at the bigger version of this, the Javalina, or however you spell it. I am kinda thinking this one because of its small nice size, would you agree?

[QuietBearr]

only the lynx which is a tad smaller, and is lighter, but isnt all that small

[QuietBearr]

its not much higher than the price of a RAT3, and 440C is 5 times more than 1095. Not a better or worse steel, just different, but just saying that the prices are not bad. The MSRPs are high, but who the hell ever pays MSRP for ANY knife?

[QuietBearr]

Just to let you know, Entreks are waterjet cut, and that is the extent of any machines. The grinding and all finishing is done by the hand of Ray Ennis himself.

If you order from me then your knife will be finished the day you order your knife...

Just letting you know that ray doesnt use 5 axis machines to do all the work. Nothing wrong with it, he just hand makes them.

[QuietBearr]

unless you look at the waranty for Entrek, which clearly beats out Rats.

[PinewoodCH]

Entrek Knive are really good quality knifes. I'm a proud owner of the Javalina, something like a bigger badger. wonderfull blade, hardened to around 57 rockwell, thick blade that keeps it sharness...

[RedJellyable]

thats like the bear grylls knive which costs nearly 400 pounds.
