+ANGELSTANK Many people including men and women find it difficult to get used to batoning through piece of hardwood. She did a great job and it is nice to let people know that. Sounds like you are the one who might be a bit of a toddler.
reminds me of the best knife design ever made, the (Puma White Hunter) the spine is sharp for chopping so you never dull your front cutting edge. I will get one and modify it to see if it can work similar to the White Hunter for a lot less money maybe as a beater. I always use a hatchet for wood splitting.
Good video. These larger Schrades look interesting, and appear to be a really good value. I would lean toward the one with the straight edge as the recurves are more difficult to sharpen.
Enjoyed the vid. I'm a big Schrade fan. The Little Rickey looks like a good one, but too small for my taste. I just ordered up a Leroy and am looking forward to putting it through it's paces.
I love your video. I have this blade and I absolutely love it. I too have the Jethro. Great chopper. The Ricky is a great blade when there is only space to bring one camp knife.
+PREPAREDMIND101 I have the SCHF45 and I can't see any reason to get the 28 except for collection purposes, which I dont think would be worth doing. I think we agree Chris.
I've been saying for years that knife companies need to ditch that plastic powder coat garbage and use titanium nitride, now low and behold Schrade finally goes back to it. Seriously, any one that thinks that a traction coating on a knife needs their head examined.
If weight is a big issue. i.e. you are carrying it in your backpack and walking a few miles to a campsite, I guess you would opt for the schf28 rather than the bigger heavier knives (Leroy, Jethro).
Hi men great review i want a big knife for chopping which one you recomend me since yo make both knifes review this one little ricky or the leroy is the same price here in my country but i cant choose both looks nie knifes
I like that bowie style, that one might motivate me to take the plunge and give Schrade a try. being a lefty it's kind of annoying if they don't make a sheath option for us
In your opinion, what are the pros or cons for that fat belly uneven bottom type of blade on a knife? By the way she did an awesome job batoning that wood! That was hard wood and it is NOT easy to get through! I think its awesome you include her like that :) Great video! All the best, Dawn
+SouthPaw Bushcraft Hey Dawn, I like a belly in larger knives for chopping and when batoning harder wood. The center of the belly digs in quickly and the rest of the knife provides the power to split. For this size I would rather take a BK7 or a bushcraft sized blade but on knives like the Jethro I love the belly and really like bellies on larger chopping style blades as long as they aren't thin like a true machete.
+Living Survival I ask because It seems they would be a great chopper and dig in with that wide head better. I don't get to try these out and I am interested in some of them, I can't go out and buy them all so I really appreciate you answering questions it helps a lot trying to determine what really is a good choice :) Thanks so much for taking the time to answer.
Good idea to have someone inexperienced check out the knife. That's not saying I like the knife because I don't like a false edge on top but the idea to have someone that doesn't know about knives test it is a good idea.
Stefan Jovanovic I have the schf28 and bk7. The little Ricky comes with a terrible grind almost a convex edge. I reworked the edge and much better. But like the bk7 better.
You forgot tomorrow's present! :-) But, I'm gonna guess a Tarp! Red Oak is tough, but have you ever tried Sweet Gum? OMG, you can build a Tank of that stuff! My Dad always called Red Oak - "Piss Oak", because sometimes it smells like piss! Great Review, Awesome Blade for sure, Thanks Much!
Bro you should have been playing with Kristen in the woods instead of Lil' Ricky Invite me over and I'll show her Big Ricky [Gasp] All kidding aside great vid ...i brought one cuz of your presentation
Well guy I watch all your videos and there GREAT!!! but after seeing this one I must say your FIRED..... Your better half has much better looking hair than you. Now you have to share with us how in the world can you get her to split wood with a pocket knife when I could not get my last 2 wives to even wash dishes..... Forgive me, this old man was not trying to be disrespectful. Wish you both all the best.
+Living Survival Well young man I can only take so much in one week. You need to stop thinking about bugging out and start thinking about bugging in. I truly loved the new twist with of adding the LADY. Sorry I guess I do not know about the 2nd channel. Loved that part about you did not get that did you. You guys made me smile tonight and I think you for it.
72+HourBOB All aspects of prepping and survival are worth thinking about and practicing. Anything can happen causing one to bug out OR bug in. Knowledge is power as they say. She has been in a few videos before but I try to get her in a few now and then :) Thanks for the comment. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
hey, love your videos. I'm a sea scout form 6th trinidad and your bushcrafting tools have helped me out in the bushcraft section in scouting.
+JohnChristian Rajah nice...i will be showing some more knives more tailored more for bushcrafting.

I love Schrade knives. I own several. She did a great job. Must be in great shape. Batoning thru thick wood can take some stamina.
Thanks for the test, I just got the 45, will be doing an unboxing tonight and test tomorrow!
Good video. These larger Schrades look interesting, and appear to be a really good value. I would lean toward the one with the straight edge as the recurves are more difficult to sharpen.
+Blake Kennedy most schrades are good value.
Enjoyed the vid. I'm a big Schrade fan. The Little Rickey looks like a good one, but too small for my taste. I just ordered up a Leroy and am looking forward to putting it through it's paces.
I like it. It looks like a larger heavier version of the SCHF9. Good fun vid. You two always get a thumbs up.
+MI Timberwookie thanks man, hope you are enjoying your weekend.
I love your video. I have this blade and I absolutely love it. I too have the Jethro. Great chopper. The Ricky is a great blade when there is only space to bring one camp knife.
tough ol lady you got there. impressed with the batoning through that knot!
+Ed H impressed me too.
I gave a thumbs up for the little lady, for doing all the work.....
+ShakerHP ;)
I tried to like it but I just can't. 45 is the shizznit though. I've been begging them to do a 1070 version.
It DID chop nice. That was a while ago.
+PREPAREDMIND101 it does chop nice for a smaller knife.
+PREPAREDMIND101 I have the SCHF45 and I can't see any reason to get the 28 except for collection purposes, which I dont think would be worth doing. I think we agree Chris.

Seriously, any one that thinks that a traction coating on a knife needs their head examined.
+TurtleWolf Pack the titanium works well. My favorite coating is PVD used by Spartan knives and Southern Grind.
Living Survival that coating I am not familiar with, but I will research it!
aw yeah! no disrespect but your daughter is pretty! ;)
+Tactical haha, that's kristen. my daughter is 4.
Classic. Its fine Ben, you dont look a day over 50 XD
@@livingsurvival 😶
Who glad to see Kristen! What's on her Christmas list?
+Rhi McKeon I don't even know.
Love the Christmas music in the intro.
+Jon Ngwisha ;)
actually, that was the smoothest batoning I've ever seen. knots and all !!! Great job ! ....PAPA DUKES
+john rossi she did great for sure. i wasn't that good my first time.
+Living Survival I'm still not that good ! lol PAPA DUKES
HA look how happy she is, I like to do that kind of stuff with my wife too. First fire she made on her own she had a smile a mile wide lol.
I'm enjoying these Christmas surprises brother
+Robert Edwards me too :)
+Living Survival keep rocking bub
Thanks for sharing. But you didn't show us a hint for Monday's video. 👍🐾🐾
+Drew Lucero damnit...forgot
If weight is a big issue. i.e. you are carrying it in your backpack and walking a few miles to a campsite, I guess you would opt for the schf28 rather than the bigger heavier knives (Leroy, Jethro).
looks like a nice line of knives thanks for sharing
+Amra Survival i'm picky so yeah i picked the ones I like best lol
Thanks for stepping up
Great video Nice blade. Thanks for sharing atb John
+Turtle Bushcraft thanks for watching.
Hi men great review i want a big knife for chopping which one you recomend me since yo make both knifes review this one little ricky or the leroy is the same price here in my country but i cant choose both looks nie knifes
Tell me what use is the top sledge ? Is it to mess up your baton
I like that bowie style, that one might motivate me to take the plunge and give Schrade a try. being a lefty it's kind of annoying if they don't make a sheath option for us
+Ed H agreed although i am not a huge fan of their sheaths anyway. easy enough to have a kydex one made for it lefty style ;)
Very nice sir!
+Irish Zombie Nation ty
that was a cool blade it has many uses
+andre oke thanks for watching.
Hard oak nice job Kristen! Ben what the heck this is Rated XXX LOL! Good stuff guys!:)
+guns4funcajanajustin haha :)
Lil Ricky is a beast...
+Wingman115 o h yeah
In the field, his ain't gonna fail you. 47 bucks? Can't be beat!!!!!!!
+Charles Larson Great price for sure.
I've actually been looking at this knife
The Leroy and the Jethro ... I take it Schrade likes NCIS lol
+creatureofhabit420 I guess so :)
Great video! Enjoyed it. Thanks!
+Iratus Jackalope thanks brother.
excellent baton work
+FORDPLOWER1 agreed.
Very nice looking blade! I like the belly on it!
Schrade sends out presents? Santa hates me.... :-(
seems like they were going for a baby kukri with this. it looks to me like they failed BUT it looks cool and it's cheap so i bought one anyway
+DWings yeah. decent.
Nice knife, definitely a bit too big for my hobbit hands, but hey, it gets the job done. And good job Kristen! :D "The" scene was hilarious lol

Nice vid. Knife looks like a nightmare to sharpen.
+Dougie depends on your system.
+Living Survival Aye, true. What do you use brother?
Dougie I just use DMT sharpeners.
love your vids keep it up.
+dominick diorio thanks dominick
Good idea to have someone inexperienced check out the knife. That's not saying I like the knife because I don't like a false edge on top but the idea to have someone that doesn't know about knives test it is a good idea.
And it’s fun to watch her chop, lol.
@@livingsurvival That too. LOL
This schrade28 is hardened? how much HRC?
7:35 Smart outdoors woman........she wears protection!!!! ....Bravo !! Safety first ;-) LOL
+Kanzee thanks for checking it out.
do they hold an edge well??
Can you please tell me which one do you prefer this one or legendary BK9? I would go for one of them. Thanks for answer
two completely different knives.
I would pair it with gerber strongarm, so what would be your choice, i am new in all this, sorry for bother
Stefan Jovanovic
I have the schf28 and bk7. The little Ricky comes with a terrible grind almost a convex edge. I reworked the edge and much better. But like the bk7 better.
nice review..i think kristen did a great job out there!
+sleep is overrated thanks for the comment.
You forgot tomorrow's present! :-) But, I'm gonna guess a Tarp!
Red Oak is tough, but have you ever tried Sweet Gum? OMG, you can build a Tank of that stuff! My Dad always called Red Oak - "Piss Oak", because sometimes it smells like piss! Great Review, Awesome Blade for sure, Thanks Much!
+James White It is hard stuff but splits fairly well and even. Never tried sweet gum.
Living Survival - The grain is very interlocked and twisted.
Nice Video!! "GirlsGotSurvivalSkills" Nice job Kristen!!
+Ed Casta thanks Ed.
Lucy I'm hoooooome! Lol
Can you review the SOG SOGfari kukri machete
+Markus Smith eh...not really that interested in SOG.
8:50 no sweet, you need to take the stick with the other side and beat, the heavy part of this stick.Like by me.
That's what she said! ;-)
ahem.cough....,even though there was no package to look at, I will guess a flashlight of sorts...PAPA DUKES
+john rossi I know I know I messed it up in editing.
I'd hate to have to sharpen that thing😕
that's cruel not giving her an axe to split that log
+lifted0422 ;)
Good knife but I think most Schrade's are.....Your wife did a good job batoning....
+Grumpy Guy thanks for watching and the comment.
close your eyes.... 7:33 XD tooooo funny
+DreBluntz good one :)
Yay Kristen!
+David Polite WOOT!
Unless she had full leather palms on her gloves, mighta been a bit difficult to test it.
+D Storm to test what? she did a fine job.
Very attractive and capable woman. I like that!
+Ron Joseph thanks Ron.
Thanks for the review. That thing look very ugly. that belly don't make much sense also, why Schrade still using hollow grind/s still a mistery to me.
+Italo Rando pretty effective though.
Grammar.
I wish my girl would do shit like this 👍👍
+Michael Daury i just hope she isnt lying when she says she enjoys it lol
I'll take the SCHF45 over the little ricky any day of the week! JMHO
+Carlos de la Cruz ;)
ben, nice review.......i just dont care for schrade, although kristen makes me like it more than you do........lol
+ben terwellen HAHA, yeah there are a few I like. Others I don't.
I think that thing looks badass but I just don't see it.
Bro you should have been playing with Kristen in the woods instead of Lil' Ricky
Invite me over and I'll show her Big Ricky [Gasp]

Looks like an awesome knife. One thing though, I can't stand that song at the beginning of the video. lol no big deal
+Caleb Evan it will change back after the holiday lol
Living Survival Haha good:)
Don't buy any schrade knives, they're all ugly and a waste of money....
