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.

Riddle of Steel: A6Max Stainless
Переглядів 2,4 тис.2 місяці тому
Here is my video showing my testing of our new A6Max stainless steel. The extreme testing was done during the development of our heat treatment protocol for this steel. We do not recommend abusing a knife like that. Obviously, damage from chopping bricks, nails and other high hardness objects isn’t covered by the WTG warranty #worktuffgear #metal #steel #knifereview #knife

@@willoutdoors2325 fast service 👍
I just bought a link. I’m super excited. I bought it in the OG green color with orange backers and I’m super excited to enjoy this knife.
@@willoutdoors2325 awesome 👍
What does it come with for belt attachment in the box
@@willoutdoors2325 tek lok
Looks like a great time!
Thanks👍
Love it! You should consider a version that looks like a mini bear claw
Great idea 👍
Had to order one. This is a really neat design, with some Canadian history. Simple but elegant and functional. Can't wait to put it to use at home and in the wilderness!
I find myself using that knife all the time 👍
when you say not very cold I need to consider youre Canadian. Here in Australia means a lot different. I just got one of these on special but Im curious what temps you find this comfortable down to.
@@davef5916 it works great as a windbreaker. By itself it doesn’t provide alot of insulation but it depends what you are able to fit under it
I just snagged one of these up in the 7/19/24 drop. My 13th WTG Blade. Cool design. Cant wait to stick it in the SXS for the upcoming SXS ride on the Hatfield and McCoy trail for those downed trees. 👍👍🇺🇸
Awesome, it should work great for that
I have the War Dog. IT IS AMAZING
@@mrk7806 thanks 👍
thank you just bought one from Peter at Wild Coast Camping Gear inc. you design nice looking and functioning knives
@@hanikaram3351 thank you 👍
Great video! I have not heard of magforce unfortunately until now interesting story.
👍
Just got a Grizzly from a knife trading buddy, want a Mountain Lion and a Wolverine, hell, might just get them all!
@@jeffseifert5527 👍👍👍
Just got one last night in a trade with a knife buddy, can't wait to see what she'll do!
@@jeffseifert5527 awesome
Just ordered the Wolverine yesterday. Guess this one here will be a great addition to it. Hope I can get my hands on it here in Europe.
@@TheTruthHunters WTG ships to Europe 👍
a really nice and practical design
@@tfjzz 👍👍
So where can one get this knife? It is an interesting design. But calling it the "Mountain Man" is a tad off. You see, the Mountain Men/Fur Trappers and Explorer's of the 1800's would carry up to 4 knives and a tomahawk or belt axe. A small knife for practical camp work. A Medium length knife for skinning and butchering game, and a large knife for self defense, along with said tomahawk or belt axe. I used to do Mountain Man reenacting when I was young. Took me two years to get my kit together. I still have the knives and tomahawk I carried.,
We are working on the next batch that should be availble by the end of 2024
Good stuff ❤❤
Thank you 👍
With what you sharpen your knives? What stone or something else?
@@tonayo27 mostly stroping but when they are duller I use sandpaper and a mouspad That works great for convex edges
gah damn that thing is a fckin BEAUTY 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
@@dakillah6018 👍👍👍
Alex, you design EPIC knives, and Vic does a TREMENDOUS job of making them a reality. I hope to be lucky enough to grab one or two of these, to attach to one or two of my Kodiaks. Man, "Thanks" for your contribution(s) to the knife world. 👍
@@loyalegroup3929 thank you my friend 👍
much love brotha im actually going to be dong some videos soon on a few of the knives you designed for work tuff cant wait!
@@SteinzVsKnives looking forward to it brother 👍👍👍
What’s the new design you’re working on in a recent video where the knife is thinner behind the edge. I have a Kodiak. Love it. But I am searching for a big knife that’s slicier - thinner behind the edge.
@@awaywardman1707 there is the War dog that will be thinner behind the wdge but still robust
@@auroraborealisknives4019 when might that be available and is there another option currently available that’s robust but also thinner behind edge. I wish I could combine the slicyness of my esee junglas and the kodiak.
@@awaywardman1707 ETA is end of 2024
@@auroraborealisknives4019 thank you for responding
Thanks Alex. Question: is the spine on the rustic finish also sharp enough for striking a ferro rod?
It’s not as sharp. The satin finish version has a much sharper spine
I find it carries well as a neck knife. Thanks for sharing Alex
It dows work great that way 👍
Hey Alex. Im keen on the rugged version, it looks awesome. It will match perfectly with my rugged War Dog! Who knew a dog and a lynx could get along so well haha -Sid
I hope they don’t get into fights 😁
Love it. Can't wait.
👍👍👍
That's a great looking little knife. I would grab one but I sorta blew my knife budget on the Kodiak.
@@8626John the Lynx definitely pairs well with the Kodiak as a companion knife
O.D. green would pair nicely with my Tayal and my Wolverine in O.D. green 👍
@@mouthagapeape8732 excellent choice
Good video my friend! Great companion knife to the larger blade!😎👍
@@WEREWOLFUSMC 👍
This A6 max is made în japan or us?
@@vicentiuoutdoors made in Japan by Aichi
@@auroraborealisknives4019 dam i ned a buy fast is good stuff 🤩
Nice review I have to stainless 1.2 Fire Maple and love it. One day ill have to pick this up too.
It works great 👍
Would you consider doing a short video on how to set up the sheath that comes with the Kodiak for various carry options? Thanks.
@@8626John good idea 👍
I wanted to let you know I received my Kodiak today. Amazingly fast shipping and the knife is gorgeous. I can't wait to get out and use it.
👍👍👍
I own your Kodiak knife and I haven’t found a better for my needs. This new one looks amazing.
Thanks 🙏
Just ordered one can’t wait till it shows up
Thanks 👍
Just got the knife ,very nice design its a big knife but feels very nimble in the hand and fit n finish is top notch im looking forward to getting more of there knives
@venomrubiconjku2816 awesome 👍
Found your channel thanks to Scab! I just started making videos myself brotha love your work!
Awesome 👍
I decided to hold off on the rifle and get one of these when I saw they were still available on the Work Tuff website.
Knives never run out of ammo 😁
Amen. Lol@@auroraborealisknives4019
Beautiful design. Just ordered your Kodiak in A6MAX from DLT Trading - now I’m thinking I need this model too! 😁
They are like brothers 👍
I'm very pleased to report that I just ordered a Kodiak from the WTG website. I've been wanting one for months and when I saw they were still available, I jumped on it.
Awesome 👍
@@auroraborealisknives4019It arrived today and it's fabulous. I can't wait to get out and use it.
Thx for the vid. WTG seem to be very awesome! Greetings from Germany...
Thank you 👍
I love my Kodiak in K329. One of the best knives period! 😍
@@bobbadison I use that one all the time
Great video Alex. Very helpful for people to know who Vic and WTG are
Vic is definitely a great guy
I really like that prototype , little thinner than a Kodiak but still beastly, plus I’m a sucker for a drop point and a nice fuller 😁
It’s more compact but still high on capability
Excellent Video! Alex didn’t realize you did the you tubes 😅
😁
Interesting video Alex! Thank you!
Thanks 👍
I feel very fortunate to have gotten a chance to work with Vic!
Vic is definitely a top notch dude 👍
@@auroraborealisknives4019 definitely
WTG rocks! ...and so does the Kodiak-A6Max which I picked up when it dropped 5/29!
Outstanding! That stainless Kodiak is definitely a workhorse
WTG and Vic is awesome👌
Agreed 100%
Good stuff. Thanks!
Thanks for dropping by 👍
@@auroraborealisknives4019 you bet
Great insight into WTG, great company, I’ve had only the best experiences with. Easily made its way to becoming my favourite knife company very quickly. Fantastic designers. Love my wolverine !
Thanks 👍
Thank you for posting, good information 🏆 Which model is the small black handle knife?
It’s the Lynx The next drop will be in the 5th of July
