Bushcraft Perfection? LT Wright Outback Knife Review - Simple Design, Outstanding Performance!
#bushcraft #knifetest #bushcraftknife #LTWright
In this episode, we celebrate Kjetil’s birthday. Our tradition is to give each other a new bushcraft knife for our birthdays. But to get his gift, Kjetil had to complete a treasure hunt filled with bushcraft challenges.
The knife - an LT Wright Outback Scandi - may look simple, but it’s packed with function. Its micarta handle feels great in the hand and matches the forest’s autumn colors perfectly. It’s an excellent feathersticker, an amazing ferro rod scraper, and a solid carving tool - just the kind of knife we love!
Take care,
West Coast Bushcrafters

    It’s funny how the same knife can come so differently for different people - mine came with a really sharp spine, it was sharper than the actual blade edge in fact haha, the blade felt like a wide butter-knife haha. I love the way it looks and the way the handle fills out my hand, plus the wood has a good grippy feel to it. Great video!

    I have both and know their advantages, but if I had to choose just one, then definitely the Nord. It's a more valuable and beautiful knife, and it feels better in hand.

    Well… as the Pictus designer I got to say the following: 1. It’s actually a knife designed and oriented to Hunting and Processing the meat from that hunting. Also that’s why it comes with arrows heads. 2. The length of the blade is because sometimes big game don’t die by the arrow or even a shot, so that sharp spear point and long blade allows the hunter to kill by stabbing right in the heart. 3. The wider blade makes it easier to butchering and processing the meat. 4. It’s not for chopping wood but however, I suggest to chop always in a 45 degree angle, by always I mean…always, because 90 degrees would most likely damage a blade if is not designed to chop. Basically, the right tool for each task. Anyway, I can chop with different kind of blades, heavy or light and I won’t damage it, just by using the proper force and the right angle. 5. For feather sticks, just more practice 😉👍🔪 sometimes you just need to get just to how the blade “bites” and the level of pressure to put on your moves. 6. The 1095 steel also allows to make “percussion fire”. You should try that. 7. The sheath is ambidextrous 😉 Be well Walt

    Hello, thanks for another LT wright video, I bought my Illuminous 5 green micarta from DLT trading USA (to Czech Republic the taxes were really high) and when it arrived, few weeks after, Lamnia had few pieces of the Illuminous 5 in green micarta after a long time of "out of stock" 😀 they sold out quick again, so now I know, where at leas one of them ended 😀 enjoy your knife, I have Illuminous, Genesis and GNS (in sabre) and love them all, but if I could have only one, it would be the Illuminous. Take care and enjoy the outdoors. 🙂

    I want to buy a knife for my son. He is 13 but allready a big, tall and clever boy. He likes to be in the woods and carv some wood. I am wondering if I should buy this woodsman or the no 10. My son likes the grip of my Casstrom no. 10 but he wants a dark wooden handle and leather sheet. Which knife is the best for him? My wife doesn't like big knives so it is important to buy a knife for my son that is not too intimidating ;-). Thanks. Greetings from the Netherlands.

    • @westcoastbushcrafters

      Hi! Awesome present that will be for him😁👍. The woodsman is an excellent choice. That has the dark wooden handle and is compact, quite a thick blade and a great carving knife with very good control. I just want to point out that Casström released a SFK no. 8 recently. Maybe interesting to check out. Unfortunately I have not found a no. 8 with a dark wooden handle. Succes!😁👍 groeten!

    I own both of your presented knives. The Bushmate had to be exchanged for another as it wouldn't throw a spark and the leather sheet was too loose. The B1, did have an issue with the wood handle shifting a bit. But the B1 is my favorite

      Cool that you have tested those out as well. Sheath is a bit loose indeed. B1 is super nice. Have it at work as a carving knife. 👌

    Bought a no.8 last year for backcountry skiing. Game changer because it 100% blocks wind AND breathes, unlike Gortex that massively west out from the inside in the cold due to condensation.

      Awesome to hear it works so well in those conditions. Sitting in the forest wearing mine right now. Pretty windy but not feeling cold👍

      @@westcoastbushcrafters I’ve used it down to -25C so far. Normally with a 320 gsm merino mid layer over a thin base when skiing at that temperature.

    Just bought it on sale at Lamnia in Finland for 889 Norwegian Kroner. They only had one left, and it was a high saber grind like this one. It is a good buy. Casstrøm knives is having the blades made in Spain. Maybe made by Joker?? Also bought the Cold Steel Drop forged survivalist too. Very good knife, with a flat grind blade in 52100 steel(ball bearing steel) And a SteelBuff Tracker knife, Limited Edition 04, made in Ukraine. Made in N690 Cobalt steel and iron wood grips. What a beauty. Also a high saber grind knife, that is my favorite blade grind. Er dere fra Norge eller Sverige. Høres ut som Norsk måte å snakke Engelsk på?? Ikke noe galt med Engelsken, den er helt strøken. Subbed👍
