I carry an Old Hickory butcher knife all the time and was thinking this would be an upgrade, but I think for chopping I should have a hatchet or axe. Hmmm.....
@@jeffersoncarlisle3125 yeah I agree. I am not one to use a knife for other than its intended purpose. Like battoning and such. That's definitely what hatchets are for. Lol If I have to baton with a knife I would consider myself ill prepared. 😁
@@Katana-Karl I do like the Old Hickory butcher knife with the 7 inch blade and that it fits in a K-Bar sheath, as many know. I carry mine all the time in the side leg tool pocket of my Carhart overalls, which is pretty much the only "pants" I ever wear. The knife is at the perfect location with this method of carry. I was thinking I'd try this Bushmaster Bowie, but I'm going to stick with the Old Hickory! Thanks for the reply. I'm a fan of yours.
Glad to know the edge help up on the Bushmaster ,but it's is a thin stock it own Carbon Steel SZCO and I'm like that other SZCO 420hc and the Bushmaster not bad for what I would use it for ,but it's obviously not a Bush Craft grade blade especially if you going to be chopping batoning wood.
@@bigalbowie7206 I ordered one and it came the other day, after taking a brief look at it, I boxed it right back up and brought it to the post office to return.
Fantastic I’m all about the cheaper knives some of them shock ya!!!! Seems nice and relaxing over there!!!!!
Ohio weather has been nice lately
That Bushmaster seems kinda like my Girlfriend, I'm really diggin' on the looks & the 'poon but she sure as hell aint much of a worker 😂
😂
Thanks for this. I almost pulled the trigger in this.
Me two Karl, looks really cool but really to thin for a camp knife,

@@jeffersoncarlisle3125 Thank you Mr. Carlisle! I am a fan of yours as well!
Big AL, great to be subscribed to your channel 👍
That’s a shame. Well at least the beer 🍻 was cold!
Whats the szco called? Cant find it anywhere
I have been wondering about this blade, kinda to thin i think, awesome review brother,
Not worth the 50 dollar price tag.....
@@bigalbowie7206 thank you for this review big al, your awesome brother 🇺🇸

The szco is a couple inches longer which may be adds weight, I don't know maybe that and grind difference
It's named a butcher bowie I was thinking more for skinning and meat cutting
Would you trust that Bushmaster in a combat situation?
Absolutely not...it under performed basic task

To be honest al iv seen a lot of great 20 dollar KNIVES out do my other expensive blades
With a hollow grind it's probably meant more as a fighting knife than a chopper.
