I think this is a very solid choice for a large camp knife. It does lose some chopping power from the shorter blade, the regular Junglas is more powerful, but it’s not as if the Junglas II is fatiguing. Basically it’s got enough power on the chop to build shelters, while being less fatiguing in the hand for finer work. This could be a really solid choice.
Another great video! I'm getting one. Keep the channel going. You are helping people make informed decisions and teaching valuable skills in the process.
Hey, just noticed on your video, a couple times, but particularly at 15:03 the knife not aligning with those tkc scales. I think you may have them backwards. I have several tkc scales too and they should not fit like that. Check them out.
I am about to do a video shootout between the Junglas 2, Becker BK9, and Architect 8. Please watch for this. It's going to be close between the Esee and Becker.
Ever tried a Becker BK9 before,it's also a lively blade in hand. A great chopper,very nice to whittle with. Great selfdefence/combat blade and a superb handle.
Yes, I have older videos using a BK 9. It is an awesome knife. Just fell in love with the Junglas2. Kind of like comparing a Chevy and Ford 4x4. Both will get you in the Woods and get the job done, but you will still end up liking one better than the other, LOL! Thanks for watching!
@@ochocobushcraft1742 that is true,i have them all😁too. Only had the Junglas ll for a couple of weeks,but loved it right away. Was just wondering if you ever tried it. Regarding the selfdefence subject,i think the bk9 is the winner.
Kewl vid. G10, Strong, indestructable. What have they done to give traction on the handles? I have G19 I made for my Beckers, but rather slick if my hands are dry. Any chance you may come up to Wa for the overland rally in June? It's in plain, right next to Leavenworth. I am teaching a knife, axe and fire starting class there. Hope to see you there. Maybe you can do a step in on my class!
A lot of the G10 handles I have bought are a little slick, These are well textured. As far as June, I really can't say for sure at this point. Have to see how crazy things get with this corona virus. Thank You for the invite Do you have an email I could reach you at?
@@ochocobushcraft1742 rp12ga@yahoo.com. I bet you guess what that stands for! I have been watching your vids a while and like the way you do them. Very real world presentation. Are you acquainted with Coyote works, Casey down there?
do you have any contact info for that leather place? I have the same knife and would like to order a sheath for it. I am in the valley but i could run over if they dont ship.
I contacted painted hills leather because I really like your sheath. A lady named Melanie returned my email very quickly. Seem like they will be very good to work with. A question i have for you is, will the pocket on the front of your sheath hold an altoids style tin? It looks plenty long, but I'm not sure about the width. Thanks!
Melanie is great. George, her dad makes the sheaths. My pocket is not wide enough for an Altoids tin, but george could size one for you. Might be wider than the sheath though.
For me, Bushcraft is the mastering of both traditional and primitive wilderness skills so i can thrive in the woods and be close to nature. For example, most people would never wander into the forest when they know a winter storm is coming. I get excited and go out build a lean to, a nice fire, sit back and drink hot cocoa and watch the storm! As far as getting started, watch you tube videos on bushcraft and practice what you see. I learned my knots from you tube and many other skills. The best way of all is to get some training with others who are experienced. See if their are any schools in your state. Where do you live?
Why are your scales on backwards???
Bellissima costumizzazione 🔪🔪👌🏽👌🏽🪵😍😍
Keep the videos coming! You finally talked me into getting a Junglas II. I really like the content you’ve got going on here.
Thank You! And enjoy your Junglas II !!!

I am enjoying it more than any knife i have used to date! Thank You!

Thank You! I think you are going to love it! Be sure and check out handle options from The Knife Connection.

......I didn't know it was possible to put the scales on backwards 😂
Edit: Please dont delete this 👍🤣
The interwebs wins again!!! ;)
They fit both ways. I tried them each ways.
@@ochocobushcraft1742 obviously they do lol, have fun chopping with it..is all I can say
@Brayden Brandon are you actually deleting your comment and writing it again?
Good review. I think people overlook a lot of good knives just because of their size. There are a lot of large knife that can do all around task.
Thank You! I agree with you 100%. Ron Hood was my biggest influence on knives. Always have a Big one and smaller one.
That shaving motion gets tiring a lot faster if you have to stop an extra 2 inches of steel every time.
Dude! What's with the scales?? ;).. Remember Facebookers, leave a like ;)
They will fit either way, and it gives a slightly different feel in the hand. I did switch them later.

Great video Ochoco! I’m in the 541 as well. We will have to link up.
Thank You! Yes, once this Corona Virus has passed, their are many people I want to get out with.
Dude, in my point of view you put the G10 scales upside down in this beast.
Yes, I tried them both ways. Both are comfortable but I did switch them around later.
@@ochocobushcraft1742, nice. It still looks great in both ways!
Great review; I think you have convinced me to get another knife!
Nice! Let me know how you like it!
Handles are on upside down..wow
👍🏻👍🏻
Hope to get my hands on this one one day, looks really good.
It has quickly become my favorite. I think you will greatly enjoy it.
I once knew a guy who 1911 grips on upside down 🤦♂️😅
Sometimes upside down just fits! LOL! I tried it both ways and it gives a unique feel in the hand.
Ever tried a Becker BK9 before,it's also a lively blade in hand. A great chopper,very nice to whittle with. Great selfdefence/combat blade and a superb handle.

Great review. I've always been curious as to why Esee has a finger choil on the 6 but not on the larger blades.
Thank You! I'm not sure about the choil, but i am glad the junglas does not have it.
I agree. I've got an ESEE 5 and it would be so much better if it had a finger choil
Is this still your favorite?
well, took your advice, watched your video on the Jungles II and watched a few others .... and now I need to buy another knife .... :-( LOL
LOL!!! WELL YOU NEVER CAN HAVE TO MANY KNIVES! IM SURE YOU WILL ENJOY IT!
the original scales didn't look as blocky as the junglas 1,, mine is really blocky, i need to upgrade the scales
Did you intentionally put the handle scales on upside down? If so, why?
I actually used them both ways and it was a good feel that way. BUT did later put them back the right way.
