Aurora Borealis Knives
Приєднався 9 чер 2014
I have been a knife enthusiast for several decades now starting with my use of the good old swiss army knife as a boy scout. Since then I have always been working in the woods clearing quad trails at the family farm and cutting down trees for firewood. I have been an avid outdoorsman, interested in mountain hiking, camping, canoeing, fishing, hunting, winter camping, bushcrafting etc… Over the years, I have owned and used knives from most of the major knife companies and many from custom knife makers. Owning and using so many knives has helped me develop a good idea of what works and what doesn’t in the real world. I have been making my own hand made knives for more than 10 years using good old high carbon steels, stainless steels and the so called high alloy super steels. I hope you enjoy my knife designs and I’m always interested to hear your feedback so we can produce the best knives at an affordable price point. Don’t hesitate to contact me at auroraborealisknives@gmail.com.
Decathlon. Twig Stove Review
I received this nice twig stove from Decathlon this Christmas. It’s a great little wood stove that is easy to pack and quick to deploy. A great item for bushcraft and camping.

Review of the Worktuff Commander
Переглядів 4364 години тому
Here is my review of the Commander by Worktuff and ODM knives. It’s the big brother of the Asset and serves as a larger survival knife! It definitely works well as a wood processing tool #auroraborealisknives #worktuffgear #review #survival #outdoors #bushcraft www.worktuffgear.com/product-page/commander-bohler-k329-dark-washed-jungle-camo-gator-grip
Review of the Rheinland Hatchet by Adler
Переглядів 31516 годин тому
I previously reviewed the Canoe axe by Adler and really liked it so decided to get their Rheinland hatchet. It’s similar to the canoe axe but has a smaller handle making it even easier to carry in a pack. Overall I’m very impressed with the capabilities of this well rounded hatchet 👍 #auroraborealisknives #axe #hatchets #bushcraftaxe #bushcraft #survival #outdoors #review adler1919.com/products...

Here is my review of this upgrade kit for the Hoplite made by Carroll’s Custom Scales. It changes the Hoplite spear point in a nice compact fixed blade knife. It can be purchased as a complete kit: carrollscustomscales.com/products/wtg-gen-2-hopelite-full-kit-holiday-special Or just the scales: carrollscustomscales.com/products/wtg-gen-2-hopelite-g10-handles I definitely recommend this upgrade ...

Review of a Camp Hatchet by JXE JXO
Переглядів 30814 днів тому
Here is my review of the JXE JXO camping hatchet. It is a drop forged axe made from 1065 and is very rugged. It splits and chops well but isn’t ideal for wood carving tasks. Overall a bomb proof tool #auroraborealisknives #hatchets #axe #review #outdoors #survival #bushcraft www.amazon.com/JXE-JXO-Camping-Hatchets-Shock-Absorbing/dp/B0DG4H393S/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=2DMDUNKF2QI3N&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9....

The Knight: a new saw from Firemaple
Переглядів 29128 днів тому
Here is my review of the Knight, a folding saw made by firemaple. I was surprised to see how efficient it was at cutting wood compared to my old Bahco folding saw. And it’s definitely much more affordable than the Silky saws. It’s a great option for bushcraft. #auroraborealisknives #firemaple #survival #bushcraft #outdoors #woodsaw #review firemaplegear.com/products/knight-folding-hand-saw

Good Job Man, The Commander is close to perfection..Just subbed
@@JoeSteel1 thanks! Love your channel 👍
Great stove for sure. Thanks for sharing Alex
@@MarkYoungBushcraft I wouldn’t have known about it were it not for your outstanding review
Are the handles the same size?
@@jameseckert402 yes exactly the same handles
Some awesome looking knives
That is one sexy knife!
It's beautiful looking knife for sure. But crossing a design between woodworking and combat is leaving both at a slight disadvantage. A Combat knife needs to be lightweight, shorter and thinner. For woodwork it has too much of a Clip Point that will "Eat" your baton and the sharp pommel cannot be used to drive in tent pegs. The WTG Wolverine is absolutely The best all purpose knife i've ever seen and used!
👍
I totally agree with everything you said... ... I'm still getting one though.
@thescharfchannel lol, i don't blame you! It is after all, a great beautiful blade! Definitely a not a Sissy Blade!!😂👍
I have been interested in that design. Looks like a good military/survival crossover. Thanks for sharing Alex
Thanks 👍
Absolutely gorgeous
@@Payton-x4z 👍
Killer blade
Thank you !
Beast mode
👍👍👍
If you can’t find your ice auger……
👍
Great video! Your designs are so excellent. Discovered you a couple months ago, now own 4, instantly in my top 10 knives out of 200. Thanks!
Thank you I reqlly appreciate it !
Work tuff really be about it fr
@@EndlessLittleMoments sure thing 👍
I love this knife. There is video after video of people using it and showing it's usefulness in the woods. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks brother 👍
High value hatchet. Love mine. Thanks for sharing Alex
@@MarkYoungBushcraft I like the fact that it’s compact and easy to carry, yet it renains very capable
Which blade steel is this? Any preference on steel you like more than the other? Anyway to find one ? These things like don’t exist in the wild ?

That's a great little camp axe Alex! Think i might get this one!! 😎👍
@@WEREWOLFUSMC the price is very decent for a made in Germany axe 👍
@auroraborealisknives4019 i completely agree brother!👍
THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@RAYANDERS-w4t 👍
Looks like a very capable tool, that canoe axe looks good also👍
@@mouthagapeape8732 they are bothe great tools 👍
Wow, the heavy snow in our area has very little snow. I enjoyed your video my friend❤❤❤❤🎉
Thank you Malek, it’s nice to finally have a real winter 😁
Thanks for the review, just ordered one, great price point.
@@shramj thanks 👍
I own one of the first runs. It took me nearly 2 years to get my hands on it. Excellent knife. Everyone i show it to immediately falls in love. After seeing these latest drops. I'm seriously considering buying another one.
Thanks for the feedback brother 👍
Is the 18 liters the entire bag or is just the main compartment 18L?
@@homie-gtv322 I’m not 100% sure but I believe it is the main compartment
Pour vous...quel est le meilleur pour une utilisation polyvalente,entre le kodiak et l ares ?
@@mickaeldeguil5924 le kodiak est nettement plus polyvalent
@@auroraborealisknives4019 merci pour votre retour 👍
👍
The way that thing blazes through frozen wood.... That is one incredible chopper!
@@jimbusmaximus4624 I loce using that blade 👍
That is a superb wilderness blade! 👊👍🏻
@@4673962 thank you brother 👍
@auroraborealisknives4019 your contributed to the knife world is much appreciated. Keep up the amazing work! Some day I will get one and I will be even more grateful and amazed, I'm sure! Been trying for years to get one of your blades but something always comes up. Can't give up, because if I do, I'll definitely never get one. Cheers and have an awesome 2025 brother!!!!
THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
👍
I hope to take my son out as you have Alex! One day…he is still a baby (1 yr old).
You have still a few years to go. My youngest son is 3 and only goes on short hikes. It’s essential that boys follow their dads in the outdoors 👍
@@auroraborealisknives4019 i have a wtg lynx ready to go for him when he can safely use it!
You're a good man to be teaching your kids bushcraft which is something everyone should know. Personally, I carry a Woodsman's Pal which is much better for chopping although somewhat heavier. It's a good compromise between an axe and a knife.
That’s a great suggestion 👍
This or esee 5???

@@auroraborealisknives4019 just noticed the extra 30$ for shipping 😅 u got a promo code?
You design beautiful, functional blades Alex, thank you! 😁👍🇦🇺 Just added a Elbrus today ...to complement my voyageur and wolverine 😁👍🇦🇺
@@adods9824 thank you my friend and happy new year !
Thanks for the video and the comparison.
No problem 👍
Thanks for the review.
Thank you !
Nice video 👍
@@WhispyWoods. thank you my friend 👍
Not a bad price for it also.👍
@@mouthagapeape8732 quite affordable. It looks a bit like the estwing hatchet
Waiting on mine to show up, hopefully tomorrow 👍
@@mouthagapeape8732 👍
Great knife. Great designer. Have the A6MAX version. Hoping for another drop on the K329 version. 🤞🏼
Think I’m gonna pull the trigger on this knife. Love the design. Great job guys.
@@birdman6499 thank you. It definitely is my most used knife
My Kodiak is on its way brotherrrr
@@HeavySetTactical409 👍👍👍
Do these two have the same handles? Curious just in case I ever go with custom scales.
@@Minuteman777 yes they have the same handles
Mine should be here in two days👍
@@mouthagapeape8732 nice 👍
Very good, I love mini survival kits! I keep one in my purse!
Smart !
I use the Ray Mears Leaf Cutter Bergen for over night. It’s 90l and I really wished it came in a day sack version. I have to say that the Helikon Tex Bergen is the nearest I could find and I am more than happy with it.
@@gibbo573 it’s great for a day hike or even a quick overnight
@@auroraborealisknives4019 If I didn’t take so much beer, it definitely would be OK for an overnight camp.
Glad to see this one in thinner stock. 👍
@@birdman6499 It’s much more functional that way
just bought my 1st bag from them (urban edc), it is surprisingly well made, especially when you see commercial brands for the same price..... it does look a bit army / police like like, got mine in black to prevent it a bit. hopefully it doesn't stand out too much lol. question, does the plastic plate form to your back over time? i think i read that somewhere?
Up to now the plastic is still straight
Just got mine!
Awesome 👍
I wish work tuff would have done a higher hardness. 60-61 would have been awesome
