Lion Steel T5 is one of the best knives I have ever owned. The finishes on each Lion Steel knife are incredible and I see them in few brands... 100% recommended!
I had researched several knives before purchasing the T5 6 months ago. Your review was very helpful but other reviews were also positive and justified my research. After using it for 6 months I'm pleased to report that this is a remarkable knife.
Processed 2 deer last fall and it maintained it's incredible edge.
Note: I reconfigured the edge to 22 1/2 degrees and it is now more useful than the factory edge. The handle is very comfortable and doesn't create hot spots. I purchased mine from Chicago Knife Works for $137 and free shipping.
I highly recommend this fixed blade beauty!
Awesome! Glad to hear it
I heard Pete from Cedric & Ada outdoors changed the blade angle on a system, but after convexing the factory edge. I think more often we should really look at and work on the edges of our knives, at least our favorites there's buried performance that people say is metal fatigue on factory edges. We have ( many of us) so many new knives to try that we never get deeper than the factory edge
I have an older model 5” Lionsteel in Niolox, I’ve been beating on for about 6 years it still looks new. I camp/hike/hunt/fish almost every weekend bringing it along.
Awesome!!
Cool, Johnny!! Do you think it's easy to resharp? (Thank you in advance) :)
@@DaniVC really easy, I keep mine tuned up with a ceramic rod and paddle strop. A couple passes on each and back in business.
Love all your stuff man! Do you still use the field buddy 5.5? I just can’t put it down.
Wow!! Thank you so much, @@steddyk!! The problem is... Now this knife is totally desirable to me!!! :D
Lionsteel makes a good product. The Italians do a lot with the little details that other manufacturers haven't picked up on. I was also looking at this knife. Would love to see a review 6 months from now to see how you still like it.
I love Lionsteels, but in classic Italian fashion the style of their knives tend to take priority over function and their quality can be inconsistent. That hasn't stopped me from buying them and I've been fortunate with the quality so far. I have this exact T5 but I haven't had the occasion to use it as hard as he does in the video... happy to see the functionality is there along with the style.
just get it...had ot for a year
@@TheScottyp1 Thanks!
Lionsteel do poorly on heat treatment, specifically with m390. I avoid them like the plague.
I have this knife, I've had it for a few years, just general bushcraft use with a small amount of butchering. Excellent knife though a bit heavy in the micarta, I have also purchased the M4 which suits my needs better size wise. I cannot recommend them highly enough
The T5 is my first Lion Steel and WoW , I've been missing out ! This is a Fantastic Blade , I just got mine about a week ago , I paid $148 on Amazon and it IS worth every Penny . I have XL Hands and this handle fits Great .....👍 🖖
NIOLOX is a German Steel. The Kife is designed and made in Italy. Lionsteels fit and finish is really good. For the price of 150$ it is hard to beat.
Lionsteel and Fox knives are excellent quality and fit and finish. The leather sheaths that come with some are outstanding. Well worth the money and are very reasonably priced.
Ya I am surprised they at around the price of an Esee5 this knife has amazing quality and depending on use a better steel.
Your review is the best one of the T5 on UTube. I ordered my T5 and hope to receive it in a few days. Be safe and thank you.
You got it!! It's why I bought the M7 at a local army surplus. I was looking at knives & the Micarta taco caught my eye. I'd never heard of Lionsteel but now I'm a fan & own 3 of their products--the M7, the integral folder with rotolock, & the T.R.E.. The quality is there & they are a great value, probably bc they aren't well known & want to make a splash in the US market. I would like to add you are correct: the girth of the handle matters. I bought a Gerber Strongarm & it didn't feel right in my large hands, so I bought a Tops Backpackers Bowie & that's right in my hands but the rusting is problematic. It rusts if you look at it.
I have a Lionsteel M4 in M390 steel with G10 handle that I've owed for about 1 1/2 years now and I absolutely love it. It quickly became my go to fixed blade.
Nice review! I really like this knife, I have had my eye on it for a while for the same purposes you described. The Lionsteel knives are great, I like their simplicity and the fit/finish and ergonomics are great. Personally I have their M4 and M1, both mainly used for hunting. The M1 goes in my kill kit and I purchased it mainly for caping, but it’s such a good knife even being so small. Last year I field processed my entire mule deer buck with it doing the gutless method, worked great! Definitely going to think about adding this one to my collection.
I've had this knife for 2 years and I still drool every time lay eyes on it. It's so comfortable in use, and the Niolox steel is supremely sharp.
I've had the T5 for a few years, it's the handle that caught my eye originally, great design and a very good ingot steel, the M7 has the same handle design and is a very good knife and the sleipner steel is pretty good also, Lionsteel make great products, just wish I didn't live in the UK, paid more than $200.00 for mine about 3 year's ago.
Knives and tools is pretty good at getting a lot of knives we struggle to get over here mate. I just got the Fox 140XL and TOPS Operator 7 blackout from them. Quick delivery too considering they're in Holland 👍
You paid €200 in the UK. I've always payed in pounds.

Thanks for the review! A most interesting knife indeed. Your demo, and comparison with similar knives really showcased the knife's construction and capabilities.
I am glad you enjoyed the video and the break down of the tool.
I have been using this exact model T5 this year and I love it. I describe it as a 5" tactical knife grown up. It's still a thiccc full tang but Lion Steel did an awesome job on the machining making it light without sacrificing strength. That tall grind adds so much usability that a chonky tactical or survival knife just doesn't have. The lack of overly aggressive jimping is very much appreciated. I don't need a bike sprocket to rest my thumb on, that quickly gets very uncomfortable. The reduced weight is much appreciated. The handle, the sheath, the machining, it's just a quality package all around. Then the icing on the cake is the Niolox steel. D2 is good stuff but add in extra toughness and really good stain resistance, can't go wrong.
Thanks, Aaron! I have a couple Lionsteel fixed blades, top performers.
Nice, what do you think of the Niolox?
Thanks, Aaron. The T5 is definitely a piece of hotness.
I have a couple of Lionsteel folders and my opinion is they really don’t get enough air time. Very well made, underrated knives.
I have a lion steel pocket knife video coming in the next week or so.
Lionsteel make awesome knives, I have most of their fixed blades. Great fit and finish on all knives (and sheathes).👍🇦🇺🍺

I had never heard of GEAR AID Tenacious Tape. Now this is a product I could have used decades ago. One puffer vest is about to have the seams repaired. Thanks.
This is a great knife. I've owned it for a while. It is one of the most comfortable handles out there (for me) and just well thought out from tip to tail.

Agree with this review 100%. The most beautifully made and comfortable knife I've owned. To hold it and look at it, it was a favorite, but didn't get much carry time away from my 3V Bravos 1.25 and 1.5. The Bravos are also very comfortable, just a bit bigger and more robust, plus 3V steel. But in general, Lionsteel production quality is unsurpassed. Oh yeah, and the price is surprising, an extraordinary value.
LOL, when you love Moletta design, it's passionately. I own the M2, M3, M4, M5, M7, T5, B41 and also the Titano from Saturn Knives which is manufactured at Lionsteel and whose designer is also Moletta. I also have the Fox pro-hunter fx-131 which is just gorgeous and which I believe is also a collaboration with Moletta
I had the T5 for a year or so now. It is worth the money and i would not hesitate to recommend it.
Very thorough presentation! It would be really interesting to watch a presentation of its bigger kin, the Lionsteel M7 in Sleipner steel.
They've recently started switching models to CPM-3V.
That would be epic
You, sir, may have just taken a chunk out of my bank account haha.
@@gideonstactical yeap they have M5 in CPM 3V, they used to have M5 in Sleipner steel, this V3 is new one
No. Knivesandtools had them do an exclusive in cpm 3v for the company and that's a limited amount. I even wrote Lionsteel asking of they planned to have more 3v. They replied saying they have no plans to change steel. So pray Knivesandtools orders the T5 in 3V because right now it's only the M5 which I own.
@@sirsir9665
That's a shame.
I personal won't be buying from lionsteel anymore anyway. I dared to mention the useless pocket clip on the thrill, after nearly loosing it twice. Lionsteel deleted my comment on Instagram & blocked me🤣
Love you videos I go back and watch them again and again when I’m considering a blade to add to my collection.
Awesome!
I've got a couple Benchmade bushcraft knives, figured I'd look into something different and wound up buying this. Thank you for the review, I feel even better about my purchase.
Good review! I’m a big fan of Lionsteel. Price point to quality ratio is excellent and their designs are excellent. Take a look at their new M2M.
On order. Great video, Aaron. Much appreciated.
Glad to hear it!! I hope it serves you well!
Solid review. I have this knife in the black micarta. Solid ergos, beautiful blade shape, came with an evenly sharpened razor sharp edge. Style with performance. Love this knife.
If i could have an architect knife in a 9 in blade that would be the knife for me
Nice review. I've just ordered one. Looks perfect for what I want to use it for - general bushcraft. I opted for Niolox...as a sort of compromise between Sleipner steel and CPM s30v.
This is a great, durable knife that has a wide range of capabilities and is tremendously comfortable across all sorts of tasks.
I came to this channel to check out this knife review. Im looking for a fixed blade and Ive been looking at this because of you. I might pull the trigger on it. Looks awesome too
Thanks so much and glad the video helped with the info you needed.
Lionsteel should give you the money for this video
great job
I love that knife . Helle has done the same handle type with the blade dropped into the handle material were the hand doesn't come in contact with the whole tang. This is one of the cooler knives iv seen lately even though I don't care for blade lengths over 4 inches
Lionsteel is a fantastic high quality producer that offers excellent knives for a very fair price!
For me it is one of the global top 5 producers.
This is exactly what I've always wanted for the ESEE 6....a wrap around micarta scale.
Cut pressure is on the back of the handle. The micarta should've been continuous on the spine edge. They went for looks not function.
And the back of the handle is not that comfortable either, when doing power cuts into dry wood. Squarish/blocky backhandle, the ridges are also not that comfy..
I'll just use my Mora Companion, slices through it like it is butter. Better handle also. 12 euro. Win-win.
Good to finally see a lionsteel blade on this channel. I own three of their knifes and they are worth every penny.
It's as much a work of art as it is a work tool.
would love to see you review the lionsteel m5. looks like another great knife from those folks
Looks nice, love the design.
Thanks for another great video.
The look on your face @5:00 was cool. You can see how much joy you get out of this. Share it with them. Be well.
That handle, i would love on an esee, theres so many brands that have great ideas that when combined would create godly knives.
The DPX "Hest 2.0" is also made of the same steel by them. Great blade, great steel!
All of the info in the description box is much appreciated. Thanks👍🏻
It's a beauty. Nice camp knife. Would like to get me a kydex sheath for it though.
Not many kydex makers here in the UK.
I’ve been researching Bark River, Esee, Tops, JT Wright and a few others for the past couple of weeks. My next knife is going to be the LionSteel T5. Great sheath is a plus.
Feathers are looking good brotha!
It is a nice design. Would be cool for any review of such a handle to unscrew it and show what the tang looks like.
The Italians know how to design! Beautiful knife, that seems to be very practical at the same time!
At $190 its about $30 more than an ESEE 5. Or 10x more than a great Morakniv.
Thank you 😊
I'm amazed you've never seen this handle construction before. I have it on a Bark River I have for many years but also on every wooden handle Tramontina machete I have the oldest one being over 25 years old easily. I have it on a local made outdoor knife (basically a kitchen knife with a sheath) I bought in Colombia.
That all being said I do like the knife. I do hope the tang is also epoxied in there so no water can penetrate in the handle. Of course in Europe they are more expensive bcs of the 21% VAT. I would have preferred a kydex sheath because leather stays wet for a long time after a river crossing.
Sweet knife. I have that exact knife and same color. I'm glad you did a review on it. I recently purchased a Sitivien folder with a D2 blade that looks a lot like the T5. I love both of these knives. If anyone wants an inexpensive axis lock in D2, the Sitivien st-110 and 109 are only 27 bucks. BTW, I don't know how long the sale runs, but LionSteel is offering a 20% discount on their knives on their website.
Good knife! Great video thanks for the review.
Lionsteel knives are a great option in the price range. Between Lionsteel and Esee, there's not much more one could need.
Excellent video. Tons of useful information. Thanks for all of your hard work.
Definitely digging that handle material design. That's smart.
Bo Randall would agree with that, since he came up with that solution in 1950 with the Randall 14-15-16 series. All micarta. It's called semi-full tang. Mik Molletta did an awesome work with lion steel, but the construction and the sheat design came from Randall knives.
I have a few Lion Steel knives the M4 in M390 steel is the knife that goes with me on every single hunting trip. I skinned a moose and quartered it up and it was still shaving sharp I've used it on multiple downed elk with the same results. I've been wanting this blade as well for a little bit they just make some solid blades!!!
That looks like a winner.
Nice looking knife. Blade profile appears similar to my "Bushcraft" knife except my blade is slightly longer and wider. Distal taber with a Saber grind. Rockwell C 56-58. Very tough SV90 steel. The downside is the it is difficult to resharpen. The upside is it's edge holding ability.
Your criticism of the Buck 120 is odd in my opinion. My Buck 120 about 35 years old and has seen lots of tough "bushcrafting" without any serious damage.
My approach to bushcraft appears to be much different than yours. I carry sufficient lightweight equipment when entering the woods. Real life rarely presents truly life threatening survival challenges.
I always carry a small axe (boys axe) in the woods. It is compact with excellent versatility. I carry 3 different knives a folding saw with my axe and knives. I could actually build a small cabin if needed.
I'm guessing you meant s90v instead of sv90. 56-58 hrc is pretty low for that steel, who's the maker?
The other nice thing is you can conceivably change handles due to the fact they used two Chicago screws to hold it in place.
Awesome knife! Now you're into European knives (Joker, LionSteel); Extrema Ratio Selvant, Manly Blaze, MKM Jouf, all different knives, but all excellent in different tasks. Greetings from the Netherlands
I like sharpening choils in general, but that XXL one is a joke. Not only does it weaken the structure of the blade, it also wastes precious edge length near the handle where it counts most. I'm also not a fan of the tang sticking out of the handle cutout. It's an uncecessary source of hotspots.
Randall Knives was doing this handle on the Model 14 Attack years ago. ; )
Would love to see more lionsteel blades
It's about time you found the T5
Can you do a video taking the scales off? I would love to see the shape of the tang. Love the channel. Thanks
I bought a Lionsteel M1 in olive wood some months ago. It arrived with a cosmic issue. I was unsuccessfull in contacting Lionsteel. I will try to buy from companies that are more accessible! 🤔
I love the look of them but would never buy another mine was m390 bolar and would not stop micro chipping
Review. I just bought one. Can’t wait to get it
Nice! Hope it serves you well.
I've got one of these knives and it's big brother the M7 they're awesome knives keeps a good edge some of the best ergos on the handles you wont go wrong with this knife.
That is a sweet looking knife.
They have the same tang design on the Benchmade “Steep Country”.
Hi Aaron, hope you all are doing well. Best wishes. Love the 🔪.
Great looking blade! I dig what they did with the micarta handle.
I like that knife a lot. How does it feel in your hand when you baton? How about edge retention? Balance and tip strength?
Helle has designed a knife handle like that more in the mind set of not having your bare fingers on steel in frigid temperatures, that may be one of the reasons so many nordic knives even to this day are enclosed tang.
This is essentially what I turned my esee 5 into after a ton of work… and how I wish it had come out of the box! That handle .. damn.
Great review. Another for my collection.
I was just looking at this a few days ago, and then here it is on your channel. Much appreciated review!!!
What is the specific O.R. jacket you are wearing in this video?
The Old Gunny.
Glad the video helped. My outdoor research ferrosi hoodie. I have two different videos on it. It has been my most trusted jacket for the last 7 years
I’d love to see one of these taco handled blades with Magnacut at 63+/- This, SOG pillar, & Demko free reign are my favorite big boys. BTW, where is the review for that?!
Coming 👍
A similar knife you ought to check out is the Benchmade Leuku in CPM-3V. Retails for around $140.
Excellent video! I have a T5 and it is one of the best European knives I own! ...
Nice looks great, I would send it back on the sheath coming apart at the stitching.
The Helle knives Temagami designed by Les Stroud has the same sort full tang showing on top but hidden below and has been in production for years now - Cheers
Lion Steel is slept on by everyone. Their fixed blades are an absolute bargain.
Not in Australia. $400 !!!!!
looks awesome! i have 2 folders from lionsteel and absolutly love them! gonna check this one out for sure! thanks for the awesome videos and revieuws. greetz from belgium!!
Great knife, like the Lionsteel m5 in Sleipner or cpm3v
I was literally just looking for reviews on this knife
Glad I read your mind!!
Nice knife, I'm going to get this knife and use it !
Lionsteel makes great high quality products. Their Achilles heel is the heat treat, especially on their M390 blades
Could you please recommend a cheap..ish sharper that would be suitable for this type of blade as I've just bought one and don't want the edge to become dull and be clueless on how to re sharpen?
Was wondering why you haven't done a review on lionsteel, Appreciate your insight on it and opinions
Damn good review, keep it up man!
Really appreciate that!!
of course that handle idea is nothing new, Its not too hard to buy your own micarta slabs and do it yourself, I was able to use a ban saw and my dremel to to cut the slit after epoxying 4 layers of micarta together. Turned out great.
Lionsteel is manufactured by Maniago Knife Makers, which also made the Steel Will Dark Angel 900 as well...
I’m like you I would probably go with the Buck 119. Although the General would have its usefulness in the outdoor activities that I do.
