Thank you so much DCA for the kitchen knife shout out. I've been waiting around all year long to stumble across a quality and affordable chef knife and I'm glad you showed the Mercer Zum. I placed my order for the 8" thirty minutes ago. Really looking forward to getting the knife and using it when making dinner for the family.

@mfreeman313 Год назад

Enjoy and see above, we're lovin' on Mercer real hard up there. That Zum's a looker, no doubt. Very stylish. KC has a pretty good selection of kitchen knives.

@bigzach322 Год назад

I can attest to the quality of Mercer kitchen knives, best Christmas present I've given my parents in years. The set I bought is the Mercer Genesis 6-piece set in a glass block. Still roughly the same price at $160 as it was a couple years ago. Still razor sharp after some touch ups, and the rubber handles are great for kitchen work.

@happykt Год назад

My favorite fixed blade this year was the Condor Darklore. Its a beautiful knife with 1095 steel and cost just under $100. I got mine a few days ago and love it.

@jw-vx8im Год назад

1095 is great and cinders are affordable unlike Tops

@marktheboss6441 Год назад

I've used the Woodlore for a number of years, it's a solid work horse thats easy to sharpen and maintain with a great sheath. 100% value..

@happykt Год назад

And I did order the Work Tuff Gear Nomad EDC too. It should be in today. Watching DCA sell KC knives is compelling and addictive.

@mokgable Год назад

I have their Headstrong for a great hunting knife. 1095 is great. People act like it's a bad steel now but as long as you Oil it you are fine. I got mine for 60

@stephenmartin7907 Год назад

This was great! I love your insight and opinions on anything knife related. Will there be a “best fixed blade” video based on sales?

@witness1449 Год назад

This year I purchased the Lion Steel T5 . I absolutely love this fixed blade from Lion Steel. I did re- profile the blade angle and it now performs superbly for deer field processing and skinning. Fits my hand perfectly and keeps a good grip in all conditions. Holds an edge really well. Big thumbs up 👍 for the T5 I'm sure the T6 is just as impressive.

@SlashGears Год назад

Same bro, just bought my T5 this year and by far my favorite fixed blade from my collection. By the way, what angle did you re-profile yours?

@TartanJack Год назад

I've come to love edc'ing a fixed blade thanks to an Esee Izula. I love Italian knives so I have to go for the MKM Makro. Gorgeous.

@WhstlblwrBlastingEpsteinsILK Год назад

The Work Tuff & LionSteel T6 are both frigging gorgeous.

@ssunfish Год назад

The LionSteel T6 in person is gorgeous. I have it in that same handle material and I'm looking forward to how it changes overtime as G-10 doesn't and micarta does.

@feedmefetus6537 Год назад

Fun fact about Reiff knives, the F3 (3.0” blade, absolutely great pocket fixed blade) has a 90 degree ground pommel under the bottom of the scales that’s meant to spark a ferro rod and it works very well.

@vughy Год назад

Hi DCA! I couldn't agree more with you about the top three fixed blade knives. However, the Lionsteel is just awesome! For sure I would give it the #1

@larrymenard7626 Год назад

With the up coming hard times that many perceive, I prefer to spend my money on knives with US knife companies. The Lionsteel knives are from Maniago, Italy. Any input on current US made knives is welcomed by this old veteran, lol. PS: I have nothing against Italy. I was stationed in Sicily in the early 80's.

@markfcoble Год назад

Thanks for fixed blades. Favorite ones!

@CrazyJesusTalk Год назад

I bought the nomad EDC early this year and it is my vehicle knife. It feels so much bigger then it is. Not in a bulky bad way but in a way that it can take on almost anything with ease. It really is a great all around knife.

Very good presentation & explanation of your thought process. However… just when I had my mind made up about a fixed blade I’ve been wanting for a long time, you go and show off that Reiff Knives F4 Bushcrafter.

@roycolglazier1061 Год назад

I'm gobsmacked in LOVE w/my Civivi Elementum in Damascus w/Ebony grips! A pretty little thing that's impressed hell outta me as a de-packaging tool, it's apparently the sharpest knife I own with the exception of when I put a new DeWalt blade in my utility knife...

@jorgefernandez6407 Год назад

Got that LT Leather neck (thank you KC btw) and it's turned out to be one of my favorite Bowie's! Can't wait for the all black one to come out. A great knife...

I saw it for the first time on this video and it was the most compelling on the table since I already had LionSteel T6. I love when DCA shows me something I didn't know about!

@TimeAttack2003 Год назад

Micro tracker FTW! Light,master of none design. Love it!

@michaelrodrigues8142 Год назад

Surprised none of the Brisa knives made the list. Really love the Trapper 95 with scandi grind and the Elver and Necker with flat grind. I've been getting my kid the Uncle Henry fixed blades with staglon scales. Excellent budget knife and they look really nice too!

@GrumpyGrunt Год назад

The WTG 'Nomad EDC' is my overall "Fixed Blade of the Year" this year. It's an absolutely brilliant knife in my hands, and my favorite to straddle the line between EDC and outdoors capable. Zeke killed it on that design. When I don't have it loaned out, it's always in consideration for daily carry. I am glad to see them back in stock again. Thanks for your thoughts on these, DCA!

@knifecenter Год назад

@danrussell9357 Год назад

Bought a Hogue Extrak this year. The lightness and sharpness of the blade get my vote for best new fixed blade.

@davidb1975a Год назад

Giving me an idea of what I want to get in 2023. I've had my eye on the Lionsteel fixed blades. This is helping me make an educated decision.

@mannihh5274 Год назад

I mostly agree with your picks, my go-to would be the SOG Tellus. The WorkTuff Nomad is very interesting, but for me too expensive, I'm not in for expensive knives - could be an option at 70$ with a 14C27 / or 14C28N steel. Other than you I absolutely insist on a crisp 90° spine for making shavings, if they don't come with one from the factory, I'll take them to the grinder. Happy New Year

@beaulindemann7392 Год назад

That work tuff nomad has it hands down for me, I'm ordering one right now infact.

@jlogue751 Год назад

I agree. I need one it looks high quality and different yet usefull

@alexp974 Год назад

The new KHDaily pocket bushcrafters, though from a small custom shop are incredible!

@thefeatheredfrontiersman8135 Год назад

That chef knife is the same German steel as my messermister. I'm a chef. I was very happy with the edge retention and overall performance with it, right below that price. I can use it for a solid month all night long and have it sharpened by then. I'd highly recommend it.

@edadkins4048 Год назад

@pierrepower8343 Год назад

I agree with your pick, mostly because it looks like the Dawson handyman made from magnacut which is a beautiful EDC fixed blade. I feel if you had that knife in this lot your first pick might be different. Great review I enjoyed it a lot.

@cemetarygates2800 Год назад

Cool. I'm looking around for my 1st fixed edc blade.

@bobjohnson1633 Год назад

Bradford guardian 3 in magnacut. Esee 3 in s35vn. You can obviously go cheaper, but those are my pics for best EDC fixed

@presidentmerkinmuffley6769 Год назад

Take a peek at CRKT, cheap enough to try several blades to figure out what sort you like, solid enough that you dont have to replace it if you dont want to and know how to sharpen. I found that like the Obake, so when I upgraded, I got the Boker Kwaiken fixed.

@arrowheadguys7637 Год назад

I bought a lot of EDC fixed blades before I ended up with the Creely Mako. I absolutely love it and carry it all the time. KC currently has one in stock with Cruwear, same one I got.

@charlescollier7217 Год назад

Excellent video, Mr. Andersen. I'm especially pleased that you chose the Nomad EDC! It absolutely deserves a Knife of the Year Award. I would recommend that you use the knife for food prep a couple of times and see what you think of its capability in that role.

@SimonSaysCanada Год назад

Big fan of the Micro Tracker myself, but that Work Tuff does look super cool indeed.

@nachoisme Год назад

I have both. Both are awesome. The nomad, if you don’t need a giant blade, is the absolute best knife I’ve bought for feel in hand. I haven’t found a situation it doesn’t work great in

That mini tracker actually looks very effective. Plenty of flat edge for batoning 1" sticks to start a fire.

You can break 1” sticks with your hands easily lol why would you baton that wtf this community sometimes man…

@patomalley5570 Год назад

LionSteel T6 handle - the same is available on the LionSteel T5, M7 and H2 - super comfortable, plenty of curb appeal, too.

@ssunfish Год назад

H2 on my radar for over a year and still haven't pulled the trigger on it. Strange, but went for T6 first. LionSteel is known by me and friends for giving value for alloys and craftsmanship for price. I'm crazy about the one piece handle.

@jimq Год назад

The Canary, with 14C28N looks like a sweet little knife.

@andreasmartini1280 Год назад

I started my knife career with always going to the big and heavy knives. The bigger the better. Now I became mature. No need anymore to build a big blockhouse in the Forrest. I stay now with small knives. I love my MKM Nomad and the Boker Daily. Just enough to cut a Salami sausage and French cheese. I was forced to buy both knives, because the sheets (?) and the way to carry my knive at the belt became more important to me, than the question about the steel.

@ssunfish Год назад

You wrote an interesting comment! For a year and a half I considered pocket fixed blade EDC knives. Seeing other's. My favorite carry is magnetic neck sheath. Carter Cutlery neck knife designs are appealing. I EDC Esse CR 2.5 but I enjoy LionSteel T6 more. T6 is much less practical and doesn't have the range of useful tasks. I just like it better!

@SamPeabody Год назад

That Boker Micro Tracker looks really cool, but I admit I wouldn’t know where to start trying to sharpen that thing. I have a brush axe/machete kind of thing with a complicated convex-concave edge like that, and unfortunately it wasn’t very sharp out of the box. My attempts to sharpen it only made it worse… I’ll stick with straight or convex blades.

@sheltermonkey6065 Год назад

I'm glad you finally recommended a Mercer after I recommended them to you many times. Their mid-range lines are made in Taiwan and use X50CrMoV15, which is a basic steel, but its heat-treated well.

@knifecenter Год назад

I've always appreciated Mercer's quality, but I have a somewhat particular set of desires I look for in my "default recommendable kitchen knife" that their lineup has never really fulfilled for me. This Zum however is absolutely fantastic. I've been using it in my kitchen for the last couple of months to make sure I can stand behind the recommendation, and I would honestly take this Mercer over a Wusthof. -DCA

@sheltermonkey6065 Год назад

@@knifecenter But the Zum line has been around since at least 2017. Their cheaper Genesis line uses the same X50CrMoV15 steel and has basically the same forged construction, but uses rubberized handles over a hidden tang. The reason I like the Genesis line is that for the same price as a Victorinox Fibrox Pro, you can get a more upscale feeling knife. Plus they offer a 6-inch chef's knife.

@knifecenter Год назад

Actually didn't realize the Zum has been available that long as we just started carrying them at KC not too long ago. That is my mistake!! As for the meat and potatoes of why I like the Zum more (way more) than the Genesis line isn't about the quality because they both have it... the Zum blade simply rocks better on a cutting board... partly because of the shape but also because of the lack of bolster. I have handled a Genesis chef knife where the heel of the blade couldn't make contact with the board surface because it was sharpened enough so the bolster stuck down lower and prevented contact. And that was straight from the factory. Even if it wasn't, the same thing will happen eventually with home sharpening, meaning you'll have to deal with grinding down that bolster eventually, and as such it is just not a feature I like to recommend at all. -DCA

@sheltermonkey6065 Год назад

@@knifecenter Every Mercer Culinary Genesis model with a bolster is also available without a bolster (They call it a short bolster). Like the ZuM line, the Genesis line has also been around since at least 2017.

@kennethkrieb3018 Год назад

I usually agree with most of your ‘best of…….’ videos, HOWEVER, I just received a knife from you guys that I believe should have DEFINITELY been on your list (if not WON). It’s my new pride and joy, the Ontario RAT 6. What’s not to like? It is made out of S35VN steel, it has BEAUTIFUL micarta handle scales, it can easily flex from a survival/ camp knife to a tactical blade AND it arrived at my door for UNDER $170 bucks. It’s a serious tool here folks. Sure, the sheath is only slightly better than the RAT 7 sheath, but it’s ok enough for now. It has a useable finger choil and a decent grind. I don’t have anything bad to say about this knife.

@JAMESGREGORYKULP1985 Год назад

@maxykus Год назад

Hi DCA, how about Ontario Blackbird in s35vn? I think it will be a good addition to the mid section

@JustKnifeThings Год назад

The Tellus is just delicious in design, but if what they want is budget stainless in a robust fixed blade, 14C28N would seem to have been the better choice than 440C. Toughness is through the roof, stainlessness is great, and if I have to sacrifice a bit of edge retention for that, I'll take it in this particular use case.

@gregoryblake3377 Год назад

@Dynotop1a Год назад

I personally think Spyderco’s Swick 5/6 and Subway Bowie are some notable small fixed blades. The Swick is weirdly comfortable despite the odd handle and is really easy to carry in your pocket. Both are Salts with LC200CN, so no rust. Perfect small and slicey fixed blades for someone like me, here in Florida. I own the Swick 6 and, like I said the hole is the right size for me and it’s really comfortable. I climb and move around the water a lot so it’s handle is nice and secure. The finish is also really nice and it’s made in Colorado.

@Dynotop1a Год назад

I’d like to mention that their Aqua Salt and Fish Hunter fixed blades are fantastic, but they’re discontinued soon so I recommend anyone should try to grab them if they can. I like serrations personally, but a nice aggressive edge seems to work well on plain edge H1.

@Dynotop1a Год назад

Most of the knives in the video are pretty cool too and I’d like to try some of them.

@Dynotop1a Год назад

Also I’m looking at that Lionsteel and it’s cool, but Spyderco was recently making their Province in 4V. A 6-7 inch bowie in 4V for $280. So even less than the Lionsteel, although you had to buy the Kydex/boltaron separately if you didn’t like the leather. Unfortunately that knife was also discontinued recently, which I’ll never understand, so I’m never going to stop begging them to bring it back.

@Dynotop1a Год назад

I know it’s pretty clear I like Spyderco’s by this point, and I really do. I just think their fixed blades deserve a bit more recognition and popularity, because they absolutely hang with the best.

Roughly 15 emails and 3 hours of phone calls.

I got a Sog Trident AT this year and it rusted incredibly quick even though I didn’t use for anything I didn’t use other knives for that were fine. Both the blade and internals. Then the hardware stripped incredibly easily when I wanted to disassemble and address it

Scales that aren't bolted/riveted or injection molded sound sketchy. If they're thoroughly glued/expoxied they could be sufficiently skookum...but are they?

The Tracker series from böker looks great but this knives are very fragile. If you are disappointed with the sog's you would be horrified by the quality of this knives. I know people who bought them and they broke, literally broke in two pieces, on the first use. I'm not stating that sog makes great knives and it was first outdoor / bushcrafting use but this bs is literally called Tracker... Lionsteel makes awesome knives for really fair price, so does Foxknives.

I was hoping Cold Steel would have gone 1095 or SK85. I went Lion Steel. It just does something. Price, appearance, value. I like it. Is there going to be a top selling fixed blade video?

OMG! If Leatherneck Bowie was in 1095 or 14C28N I couldn't buy it fast enough! D2 or S30V always disappoints when it's the single option on a knife model or design. SK85 would have been off the hook! I have Boker Komondor and it might as well be 1085 steel for toughness and edge holding. If I'm going to give something up, I'll take corrosion resistance. I can guard the knife against rust.
