Two years later your video is still tormenting souls. This knife is exactly the one I want...........handle, steel, and grind. Paired with a SAK, BK9, and a Silky saw, I'd be unstoppable. Or at least my smiles would be........

Oh man! You’ve already made me buy a Bark River JX6. It hasn’t even arrived yet and now I have to get one of these, too. UA-cam is expensive. Great review.
Literally got the same exact knife as yours. 3v Black g10 with thick white liners on saber grind. Love it.
I️ have a 3v spearpoint forest trail in scandi which is like the big brother.
Amazing blades. Thanks for the review.
Lol....you did talk me into it. Ordered it the next day and got it a week ago. 3v in saber grind. Have been a big LT fan for a few years. This is now my new go bag blade. Great all purpose type blade that can handle many knife tasks
Yup, really fine blade. Great size, grind and upgraded steel. Really like the black on white.
Great vid, great knife too. I had no idea how amazing a handle that is black with thick white liners would be until your vid. That is classy and beautiful.
i love LT Wright knives, still carry my GNS as my main belt knife going on 3 years now.
Junkyard Fox after watching a number of your videos, i finally pulled the trigger on a gns in 3v. just recieved it today. It is impressive! its gonna be a good weekend!
I like how the edge extends past the handle so you can cut on a flat surface
Bushcrafter 162 seems similar in blade, drop point instead of spear but the high saber grind makes it a strong slicey blade. Well done Cedric
oh hey it does have a heaps similar blade. I've been meaning to try the 162 - I like the looks of the handle color and design
Cedric & Ada Gear and Outdoors I love my 162 its my go to knife. I will warn you the handle is a bit boxy and it has a large swell in the handle which works out great for me my hand gets fatigued with most other knives as I can only use 3 and the thumb for griping my pinky doesn't work due to injury when I was younger. with other knives I have to use a piece of scrap leather to ad grip and swell out the handle.
I do like that knife. If I didn't already have a Cudeman MT-5, I'd be tempted. Sadly, I only have a finite amount of room on my belt to hang things, and nowhere at home to safely store or display more knives.
I've paired the Small Northern Hunter aeb-l flat grind with a GNS 01 Scandi and it seems pretty super . The Small Northern Hunter is soo nice in hand and otherwise I'd to get another for EDC but also a Large Northern Hunter just because the small one is soo good I'm needing to find out what I've missed with the large . Their products seem well refined and I'm very impressed . Dude ........ that onion money shot !
It's an outstanding knife. LT Wright makes the best outdoor use fixed blades you can get today. I have the Outback, the GNS, and the Genesis, as well as the smaller Patriot and Frontier Trapper. I wouldn't part with any of them.
Did LTW ever make a GNS with a hollow grind? A buddy of mine recently bought a large lot of camping/sporting goods and there is a knife in there with LT Wright's tang mark but it's got what looks like a factory hollow grind. Not sure if he ended up with a fake or if it's a really unusual custom version.
I know early on (Pre Blind Horse), LT did a fair bit of hollow ground hunting knives. But I’m not sure if he was still doing hollow ground by the time they designed the Self Reliant (aka GNS).
I’d love to see a cut test on LT’s 3v
LT Wright makes some fine tools. I have a GNS and a Lagom and both are excellent to work with. Thanks for sharing
Just got this one in scandi from dlt trading, the handle is unbelieveable, beats any bark river in ergos in my opinion, came sharp as a razor! also sharper then any bark river ever came.
i am very impressed this is my absolute favorit bushcraft knife by far!
I’m kicking tires on an outback with desert ironwood scandi. 400$ Canadian though ugh.
I like that it's called outback because it looks like a steak knife
What’s the name of the knife at 7:57?
It's branded as Hultafors but is made by Mora. It's a copy of their 511 basic. You can find them around under the Hultafors name or just by a Mora. Either way, they should be $15 or less. Amazon is a good spot.
Thank you for including the food prep! Excellent video
Thanks for the review! This looks like a beautiful knife. I just got a GNS in AEB-L for winter and rainforest use. I'd love to see a cut test on LT Wright's 3V to see how it performs so I can justify giving DLT some Trumpbucks.
Haven't tried the saber. Mine is scandi.
Thats a nice knife ....pretty spendy though, gotta have front row seat funds for that one, my knife budget keeps me in the nose bleed section😁
Have you seen the new $49 SRK ? They took away the crazy inch of wasted space made it a slight convex grind with the same steel as the Hultifors HD. Its a definite competitor with Gerber's Strongarm now and the SCHF 42, Gidionstactical reviewed it the other day.
The SK5 version of the SRK is amazing for 40 bucks on Amazon (day to day) . I have that, the VG1 , and the 3V also...best bang for your buck going IMHO.
Click bait worked! Could not believe there was something wrong with an LT. Good video
Have you done a rope cut test with this knife? I'm interested to see what It's 3v heat treat is like and edge retention vs Bark River and others etc Unleashed?.
Notice the X on the Outback blade, believe this is a marker LTWK use for their 3v blades. Liked the side by side comparison at the end, makes it easier to get a good idea of the relative size.
Fjell Wood you are correct sir!
Nice review of a fabulous knife. I’ve got 3 lt wright knives and am trying to resist getting another. Sure they cost more, but I get a small thrill every time I use one. Not the same with a Chinese knife, although they work ok. Many people would be happier with one lt than a drawer full of cheaper choices.
great video! Trying to decide between that knive and the BTH "Salt Fork"
I've already requested ceramic but any chance you could get a titanium blade in for a "steel" test? Pretty curious about both.
Greetings from California! Great informative videos. I was considering purchasing an Outback. I’ve heard sharpening them is a nightmare. I’d appreciate any advisor you may offer.
Hmm, that is a really sweet knife! CPM3V was a great choice!
Ok so my question is how does the LT Wright CPM 3V match up to Cold Steel CPM 3V and the Bark River CPM 3V?
LT wright can be trusted that the material is DEFINITELY 3V....not so much Bark River ..if your to believe the Internet. Just saying.
Cold Steel does a great job with 3V IMHO (have the master, pendleton, and SRK in 3V)
So beautiful in the looks alone
Looks like the Ka-Bar BK2
How would you compare this to the SURVIVE! knife you reviewed?
3V for hard outback wood. Hard outback wood sounds like what you got during the making of this video.
Kit Bloke hard outback wood, out front
Thanks but I prefer thick bush to that outback stuff
I just loved this review and the knife is great 🔪✨
Ps you are a great bushcrafter in any sense. Where you live, how you live, what you do, your hobbies, ... all make you skilled one.
Hey Pete did you finally buy all the sisal in SA, hence the nylon? Great video as usual.
1:12 Did you say Horace Kefart? Lol Great review, great knife!
Mine was unfinished .I had to finish sharpening it myself. There was a big long but along the edge. I fixed it myself.I did not want to send it back. But the Q.C. needs attention sorry L.T. other than that o.o like the knife a lot.
Did you wet form the sheath?
Great review! Yeah, I want a saber version
this was the knife I was going to get before I got your Genesis
Adrian Griffin bout 360 to get one of these all the way here!
Nice, I was just looking at these yesterday, but I've already got a GNS and the Outback is too similar. I'm getting mighty tempted by those Frontier Firsts DLT just got in tho.
How do you like the Outback compared to your old Genesis?
subroc genesis always felt a bit more 'woodcarving focussed' rather than a do all camp blade. This is in the S1 / T5 / Master Hunter 'general use' vibe
Hello thanks for the video, between the LTWK Genesis and the Outback which one would you recommend to get as a first LTWK. Cheers.
+Jun Vasquez The outback as a general user, then a genesis if you wanna do mor woodworking
Cedric & Ada Gear and Outdoors Thanks for the advice, this is a long shot - are you still using this knife? If not are you willing it to onsell it, just couldn't be bothered to order from DLT? Thanks
So you still like the G10 grips or regret getting the micarta?
What is the name of the red wood ?
+BlueBerry14 redgum
Just found your channel today and I really like your reviews! Watched a lot of DBK for a while but they just get a little more ridiculous with each new video. But hey that's just me. Anyways keep up the good work you're doing great!
Oh and if you're in the market I'd like to recommend a fairly new brand for you to try. Hyken Knives. CPM-154 blade, scandivex grind, and really sweet handle ergos. Got mine from knives ship free. I think they should still have some of the first run left. And Bark River is building them for Reid Hyken so you know it's a good knife.
I think DLT carries these as well.
JiG Ls That's the best part of DBK. I'm always weirded out when I see their old vids and they're so damn serious.
Like I said, that's just me. I liked it for a while, but lately it seems to me that they are concentrating way more on their acting than the knife they are reviewing. I guess it's okay if you're looking for a comedy routine, but if I'm looking at possibly spending a lot of money on a new knife I prefer something a little more serious.
DBK are having fun. Theres so many serious channels that I think theres definitely room! I try and walk the line a little closer to the middle though! I'll check out that knife - DLT have a good shipping service to Australia so happy to use them more.
I know you're right. And I do still watch DBK. Maybe I'm forgetting forgetting that having fun is what's most important! Hey I'm starting to get old what can I say. Now to this knife. I really, really want a LT Wright. And I also really, really want a Lon Humphrey. Too many decisions lol. Maybe I'll flip a coin.
So good folks I would like to ask a question to you. I you only could buy this knife or a bark river which would you buy? I am from Ohio so I would like to go to the home sstate knifemaker but I here the Michiganders
I hear The Michiganders also make a good knife
I would honestly go for both both have there good and bad attributes but it also depends on the brk model
3v or not 3v, That is the question.
3v
Want the full convex one.
Loris Buschor unfortunately what u want does not exist
If you had to choose this or the T5 lionsteel ?
i would choose this what would you rather choose this or the bark river bravo 1 3v lt
I absolutely dislike the clickbait and dishonest tactic of using the LT Wright Knives name to promote your own channel and content, coupled with having a negative title for this video, despite you actually liking their product.
Grow a pair buddy.
I like it ! Good review thanks for sharing , I've got a few LT blades , GNS in a saber and Genesis in a scandi line them both ! 👍🏻
Do Aussies call American units "Standard"? We call them Imperial in Canada. This channel is really cool for discovering language differences but the gear part is cool too I guess 😀
Rodrigo Teresa We call US units Imperial too. Always funny to see the non metric measuring the blade width behind the edge. Some American reviewers use metric at least for this.
That money shot made me grab new underwear. XD
Bad news... Ha! Watching the video didn't cost me a penny. Already have two of his knives that are a joy to use. Worth all the pennies I spent on them.
Looks like a Becker bk2
Looks like a BK2? Or am I imagining things?
+Christian Williams I can see the resemblance, blade wise. Handles bit less 'hook-ish' and its a lot thinner though
My brother and best friend work for him
OMG! I'll have to sell my kidney..
because I'm lazy haha I love it man
Great review👍🏻 more dickhead survival 😀🎉🎉👏👏👏👏
I click on all your videos anyway lol
