Very informative and thought out put together review , I just bought one and I like it also thanks for showing the food preparation a lot video out there the reviews just show making feather sticks and splitting wood, usually a lot of knives that come out the knife is good but comes with a crappy sheath to carry it. Ethan Becker knocked it out of the park with this knife design and sheath to carry the Harpoon, and best of all its all made in the good old USA. Thank you Small ADVentures for taking time to share this with all of us.
Thanks much for the kind words, Randy 🙏😊 I'm still loving this knife (as well as other BK's that I've bought since then--I had previously owned a BK2 and 9 before thos review, but have added a 7, 16, and a second 18 in black). It's still tied for first as my go-to knife and sees lots of use (3 way tie between this one, my BK16, and Esee 4) 😊✌️
@@SmallADVentures1973 I'm a big fan of the Becker knives I own a BK2 BK3 BK7 BK9 the BK9 combat bowie is my favorite one. A wise man once told me you can never own to many knives and Glocks be safe during these troubling times going on in our government
@Randy Cisneros I'm so sorry that I just now saw your reply, Randy, RU-vid gave me no notifications (i just happened to get a new comment on this video, noticed an odd number of replies on your comment and checked out of curiosity 🤦♂️😞 You're definitely right about the times we live in ,ugh. Unfortunately, all of my firearms were lost in a, um...boating accident or something or other 🤔🙄🤣👍 lol, I hope you and yours are well, my friend 😊✌️
there is the blue truck lol. that is a nice knife held the edge well. what was the orange one that you compared for. the blade is nothing i seen before.
I don't remember 🤔🤦♂️I will have go go back and watch it again to jog my memory, give me a few minutes 🤣 It is a great knife, and still my go-to for day hikes 😊
The only orange one I saw in the video was at the end when I was asking what viewers wanted to see reviewed next. That's a Moraknives (or just "Mora") Kansbol. I never did get around to video reviewing it, but I have used it lots since, it's an excellent bushcraft or camp kitchen knife, especially at around 30 bucks. Highly recommended, I've even given them as Christmas gifts 😊
My guess would be Smokey Mtn Knifeworks or other reputable store online (this one came from Smokey Mtn Knifeworks in person, but tgeir online store sells exactly what their brick and mortar store does), I'm not really sure, it's been over a year since I bought mine and have looked for one (and posted this video). I would definitely start there, my friend 😊
Thank you, my friend!🙏😁Yes, you really should buy....oh yeah!!! 🤣😁 I hope you're enjoying yours as much as I am mine. Thank you much for watching, brother, I hope you and Lizanne (did I spell that right?) have an awesome weekend, brother 😊
Thanks, brother 🙏 It truly is a great knife, and so versatile (good for outdoorsy stuff, tactical, etc), I've been carrying it as backup edc for my CCW despite it's size (not as easily concealable--gotta love Tennessee and it's relaxed carry laws, LOL). I can't remember what truck you could be talking about without going back and re-watching though 😜
OH gotcha! I haven't finished that yet...our son had moved out (and I turned his room into a hobby room), then he moved back in (taking his room back) and I haven't set up to work on a model yet since (LOTS going on, LOL). He should be moving back out again before year's end (as early as literally tomorrow, but as late as Christmas) because he's about to get married unless things change, and I'll be making that room a hobby room again and get back on a couple (including the rusty Ford you speak of) 😊
Worms Eye View I just finished watching yours, lol great timing-2 friends on different continents kinda watching together 🤔😁 I’m glad you had such a great time on your trip 😊
Wow, man...I thought $90US was high 😧 You won't be disappointed, it's a really good, and a very nice knife to have imo, appreciate you watching, my friend! 😊🙏
Burnt bronze say that 3x fast 🤣...we used to sell alot of ka-bar knives at my old job...I think that's a nice knife..nice field testing...nice old picture of you..take care my friend
outdoor adventures and traveling “that 3X fast”...what’d I win? 😂 and what a coincidence, I used to buy a lot of ka-bar knives 😁 it’s definitely a nice knife. I tried to think of what most people might use it for and did it (I stayed away from tactical/self defense testing intentionally, that’s a whole other video subject, but it definitely has some capability there and I’ve been carrying it for that reason daily), I appreciate you watching (and thank you on the pic compliment, it was pre-old n fat days lol), hope y’all are well 😊🙏🏻
I'm sorry, I just now saw this (didn't get any notification of a comment), but thank you, and yes, you should definitely get one, it's an awesome knife (I'm carrying it EDC for tactical now, despite needing to get on the next knife to review, LOL)
That's good to know, thank you 🙏 My thought was primarily that I know from experience with other BK knives I've owned is the grivory can be a bit slick. I wonder if stretching a ranger band over it would be a decent (if less attractive) fix. Thoughts?
I put ranger bands on my BK9 but the standard bike inner tube is too big for the Tweeners. I fixed the rattle of the micarta by sticking a small patch of felt (actually, stick on velcro, soft side) on the inside of the bulge of the sheath.
Wha....? An unused BK2??? 😮 Dang man, get that thing dirty! 😂 Jokes aside, it's a beast of a knife. I once watched a RU-vid video of a guy completely cutting up and scrapping a metal push mower with his, LOL! It was probably that video that prompted me to buy one (4-6 years back). Thanks, brother, and that's 2 votes Mora and 1 Schrade so far 🙏👍😁
Thank you much (on both counts), my friend 🙏😊 I've been down with some health issues, but they've been getting a little better, I have plenty of knives left needing reviewing, hoping to get out in the woods again soon ✌
You shoulda came....New York Strip steak, baked potatoes, buttered corn, Mac n Cheese, and home made iron skillet corn bread (dang...Mrs. Small ADVentures sure is a lucky woman to be married to such a good lookin' feller who can cook! 😜)
It really is, definitely worth the $ imo. No Molle though unfortunately, but lots of lashing options regardless. That's another vote for the Schrade 👍 Thanks for watching, my friend 🙏
Thanks, brother! 😁🙏 I haven't fiddled with it (model) much since "rusting" up the cab, hoping to get back on it over the weekend, might be hard to though, as our son's moving back in so might be pretty busy, LOL 😂
That was a pretty good review and test ol buddy! Covered most everything somebody'd use one for I think I might buy one, great job! :) 1 more vote for that big hunk of Schrade! Maybe show some comparisons to that Becker 2?
Glad you liked it, old friend! 😁🙏Another vote for the Schrade, and there might be a comparison or two made to other knives coming (maybe even a side by side comparison video layer this year, ya never know...), and yes, if you have the $, definitely buy the 18, it's an awesome knife 😁
@@SmallADVentures1973 Yep they already took my money , they forced me to buy one ...just criminal ...😂 I went with black after watching a video that someone posted after stripping the powder coat ...Looks wicked .
@@Airik1111bibles I may buy a black one somewhere down the line too, they DO look good stripped (eBay and Hobbytown took all of my money for now though 🤦♂️🤣)
@@gl9500 Not surprised at that price point. Another great deal is Bucks GCK Knife with 5160Hc spring steel kydex sheath with molle nylon. It's $99 but for many of us thats freaking spendy ... Still for what you get its worth the money. It comes in a spear tip and Tanto version. The Tanto could be easily made into a normal edge ..I'm seriously considering buying one to reprofile cause the spear tip don't have enough belly. I love 5160 steel its getting hard to find knives made with it anymore and Bucks heat treat usa stuff is excellent.
@@SmallADVentures1973 Tell me bout it .. I want a Buck GCK "Ground Combat Knife" Tanto .... Gotta thin the herd, bought to many knives ...2020 -21 has me buying more weapons lately 🤣
