Fun Fact: the cleaver was used in ancient China & we used to call them a "kitchen axe &/or meat hatchet" here in the west. It wasnt till later ot got the name "Cleaver" which is more descriptive of what it does than what it is.

@SMKWcom Год назад

Most things are designed for daily use from what was available or extra laying around. Now days many people have started looking at making knives out of metals designed just for them

@scrick7112 Год назад

Hey SMKW, if individuals can’t ask questions respectfully, I don’t believe you should answer there questions. Love SMKW. Thx

@mr.delacruz559 Год назад

Are you 100% Tom Brown invented the Tracker or did he steal that design from Robb Russon & take it to Tops & take credit for it?

@powerplay4real174 11 месяцев назад

I like that tracker in rhis video, does SMKW sell rba5 version 😊

@lonetrader1 Год назад

Not true! The cleaver shape was invented by the man Mr. Cleaver whom the show LEAVE IT TO CLEAVER was going to be based on. Unfortunately didn't really have much of a point to the show so it ended up getting chopped

@SMKWcom Год назад

Ward? We think you were a little hard on the Beve

@dionpage7948 Год назад

TC. Have ya looked into who designed the original Tracker&how Tom Brown ripped off a schhol teacher who read his book&designed the knife from that? Do you know the other side of the story? Or do ua think it's a load of BS? I just found this out a couple months ago.

@SMKWcom Год назад

We will have to look into that. Thanks for watching

@JoseOcasio-k5d 5 месяцев назад

The Bowie is my favorite type but you opened my eyes to the Tracker type then one that you showed looks really nice and very useful and versatile, Great video, Thanks #WTP1776

@SMKWcom 5 месяцев назад

Always glad to show off new blade steels and styles

@chrisreuther4546 11 месяцев назад

I thought this was about blade shapes? The Bowie… has a clip point… the kephart has a drop/ spear point… nessmuk is a drop point…. Not sure what I just watched lol

@SMKWcom 11 месяцев назад

thanks for watching

@arctodussimus6198 Год назад

The Bowie is my favorite. Been buying and carrying Bowie knives since 1987. Bought many a knife in your store over the decades too. My edc knife for the last six years or so is the TOPS Prather War Bowie. Might even be the smallest one I have,but it’s fantastic in the hand. I’ve processed firewood, cut up brisket, cleaned fish, and cut melons with it. All done very well. As useful in the kitchen as it is in the bush. But the best part of the Prather War Bowie is all the knife envy it creates when people see you using it! 🇺🇸

@SMKWcom Год назад

Thanks for watching and that is a great choice!

@mickeybonez8950 7 месяцев назад

Big Bowie guy here too! Love them, use them, carry them, been over seas with one, the history it carries. Been eye balling the Prather, currently have it in my cart. was looking for a reason to pull the trigger on it. This comment is it! Thanks.

@troymanning3150 Год назад

Ok I was going to give this a thumbs up but when I heard the holy grail reference I want to give it four thumbs up!!!

@SMKWcom Год назад

your father smelled of elderberries

@KnifeChatswithTobias Год назад

I like a good clip blade, but there is definitely something about the Nessmuk. I think the Canada Belt Knife’s leaf blade needs exploring. I also have become really found of flat grinds!

@SMKWcom Год назад

Thanks for watching T and for the suggestions 👍

@rwe1 Год назад

No way that Bradford is a clever. Just saying. Poor Issac is going to come up missing if he keeps throwing TC under the editing bus. Lol.

@SMKWcom Год назад

We will have to come up with some way to get back at Issac lol

@jimmyking8206 Год назад

I like the Bowie knife best, I do like the others .

@SMKWcom Год назад

Gotta love a good Bowie

@davidheath2427 Год назад

Thanks for the history. And the Monty Python quote .

@SMKWcom Год назад

We quote movies, songs, and anything else that pops into our heads lol

@davidjensen4796 Год назад

I think that Indra Bowie is very nice I like it made a nice job of that one

@powerplay4real174 11 месяцев назад

Bowie is my favorite all the way 😊

@SMKWcom 11 месяцев назад

Can't go wrong with a good Bowie!

@SteveCTD Год назад

I don't think I've been told somethings good for a lot of different tasks, and not been told what any of those tasks are this many times before.🤣🤣🤣

@ralphnye664 Год назад

Bowie all the way 😎🇺🇸🤙🏼

@SMKWcom Год назад

Gotta love a well made Bowie!

@jusme8060 11 месяцев назад

Tom brown stole the tracker idea from someone who admired and respected him. There are videos on it.

@HTactical Год назад

Bowie!! Next time Fixed & Folder Bowie blades comparisons, full reviews?!!! And, another one, Head to Head Bowie vs Tanto for survival & protection?!?!

@SMKWcom Год назад

Thanks for watching and for the suggestions!

I love the tracker pattern and have wanted to get a Tom Brown Tracker from Tops. Love the info. Thank you, sir.

Thanks for watching!

BOWIE ALLLLLLL DAY!!!

@SMKWcom Год назад

Gotta love a good Bowie!

@KepmukNesshart 11 месяцев назад

In my very biased opinion, this is the best SMKW video ever! A little Canadian Belt Knife action in here too would have made this the best video on all of RU-vid. Controversial statement - maybe. Accurate statement - absolutely. Keep up the great work!!!

@SMKWcom 11 месяцев назад

The Canadian Belt Knife is far to overlooked

@bwax1542 Год назад

Yeah, I have that Bradford Cleaver. It makes for a good heavy neck knife ........ that will wear you down!

@SMKWcom Год назад

Thanks for watching B!

@robertleach230 7 месяцев назад

Is there a link too find thease knives

@magickraken734 Год назад

I've never thought a blade shape was useless, when I've see a unusual blade shape I would think what the heck would you use that for.

@SMKWcom Год назад

That is a great way to look at it

@GromMolotok Год назад

Great series! Keep 'em coming. I've never found a need for a cleaver outside of food prep, so I'll stick with Kephart and Bowie blades for my fixies for now.

@SMKWcom Год назад

Thanks for watching Grom! It is always fun to find out with blades and shapes people use/prefer

@powerplay4real174 11 месяцев назад

Yeah buddy 😊

@spatialinterpretations449 Год назад

More like a list of top bushcraft/survival knife shapes..

@SMKWcom Год назад

The Bushcraft crowd tends to be the ones that carry more fixed blades. Don't see many in board rooms or pulpits

@ghostmaloneedc4254 Год назад

Ps that was an EPIC Monty Python impersonation.

@SMKWcom Год назад

Many things go thru TC's head and a lot of time they end up on film as well

@fuzzysniper Год назад

The most useful one is the one that cuts and stabs well.

@SMKWcom Год назад

The best knife in your collection is the one you have on you when you need it

@adambecker4661 Год назад

ROB RUSSON developed the tracker knife. Not Mr. Brown

@stuartrollings602 Год назад

Howdy TC! Thanks for doing this vid and all the education you n ur team sow! I have the Tom Brown Tracker, what a horse! And also own that and several other Halfbreeds…what a amazing company and their blades are incredibly rugged! Saddle up!

@SMKWcom Год назад

Halfbreed makes some awesome purpose built knives!

@justinmcvay5560 Год назад

The things that make me go huh. Very informative video, who would of thunk it, I learned a thing or two. 👍 TC, and all of SMKW . Thank you

@SMKWcom Год назад

Never know where you are going to learn something from now days

@KnifeChatswithTobias Год назад

I think the tracker does everything somewhere between mediocre and great. Much of it comes down to training, I guess. But to me, familiarity with your knife will change your abilities from mediocre to excellent. (You kind of cover that when you were talking about South Americans and their machetes.)

@SMKWcom Год назад

It really boils down to what we like and what we practice with

@KnifeChatswithTobias Год назад

@@SMKWcom absolutely! And if you like the looks of a blade and the way the knife feels, you're much more likely to use it!

@ghostmaloneedc4254 Год назад

A blade shape is only useful as it’s user. Ghostverbs, chapter 1 verse 12

@Mridgwell Год назад

Great video very interesting topic with some very cool knives ,, enjoyed the stop Isaac part too . Thank you

@SMKWcom Год назад

Issac really enjoys poking the bear lol

@CousinGunnar Год назад

Cleaver shapes have really grown on me both in fixed blades and folders

@SMKWcom Год назад

A cleaver shape can be very useful once you get use to them

@marclucier2533 Год назад

Always been fond of kephart styles as close to the original as possible

@SMKWcom Год назад

Ethan Becker owns a OG Kephart and based his, with modern materials, as closely as he could

@joeywhite2588 Год назад

Great show as always

@SMKWcom Год назад

Thanks for watching Joey!

@roberthowell7814 Год назад

Never ceases to amaze how many people have no imagination. If you were trying to chop up A deer, you might figure out the usefulness of a cleaver. Also TC, Google Robb Russon , Check out his sons evidence he created the tracker. Interesting and sad. Not some thing that happens very often in the knife community. As far as I know.
