Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 тра 2022
- I had so much fun cutting up my Gerber Strongarm Black with a Sawzall to make a Custom knife. My Gerber Strongarm Coyote has been my EDC Knife of choice during knife testing. It is hands down the best edc knife when it comes to fixed blades. It's one of my favorite EDC tools. I have big plans for this Custom Gerber Strongarm. I've been doing a Gerber strongarm durability test. This gerber strongarm test has been fun! So, Enjoy this Strongarm torture test, starring my Leatherman Surge, my Gerber Dual Force, my Akubra territory and gerber gear all in this Gerber strongarm abuse review.
Check out the Facebook group! groups/32146... If we make 500 on UA-cam and Facebook we'll do another GAW!
Don't forget we have patches for sale still!

Thank you for your time in putting together this informative video.
I appreciate this video Maddowg EDC 😊
Haha them strong arms are very hard headed they refuse to understand they should break at some point lol I love it lol
Quite a video brother !!!!🤘🏻
Interesting.
People don't have to worry about that handle developing play or loosen up.
Tough cookie for sure.
And the rubber overmold makes it nice and grippy. No slick G10 problems there.
Yeah, this handle isn't going anywhere. I have abused these knives and have no issues at all.

Good to hear.
I saw some other tests also. From Joe X, destruction.
It is totally amazing what that knife can withstand.
Never had one. But will soon get a couple.
Very very nice.
I also like the rubber type of handles.
G10 and micarta are a bit too slick for my taste. I know they are liked by many.
Give me a Mora Bushcraft Black handle. The Gerber Strongarm looks like a good one for me also.
No need for huge blades either. For chopping a machete or hachet will do the job better than, most, big knives anyway.
@@MaddawgEDC
Also shows that a full width tang is far from needed in a hard use knife.
No cold (winter) or hot (summer, desert) steel tang in the hand.
Yes sir! Mine is literally stabbed in the dirt beside me as I do repairs to an irrigation system. So, muddy, wet hands. No slipping.
@@MaddawgEDC
Just about perfect. A tool you can trust.
👌
I got one pot these knives coming. Hopefully they are still as tough as they say they have been. By the way; must be nice to remember you have a multitool on your belt, I do too, but frequently forget I do, than feel stupid when I ask someone something and they say ‘don’t you have Pliers/can opener etc on your belt?’ Lol
Haha I do it too sometimes!
Wouldn’t love to see what you did to replace the handle!
I actually havent finished it yet. I got working on it but when I went to drill the tang, I found out fast how good Gerber heat treated the knife haha
I will give you an idea. You can drill and put micarta guard. If it is possible.
That's a good idea. The tang however is so hard that even a machine shop was unable to get through it
I love mine in bdz-1 steel,tiugh an sharp little utility knife and wirk horse an tactical jack of all trades.
Nice! I was lucky enough to find a BDZ1 model! I have yet to use it though.... It's a shelf queen along with all of the other limited models.
Did you ever rehandle this knife? I hope so. Id like to see it.
I still have plans to, but I have not done it yet
10:06 it takes a gerber to destroy a gerber.
It's built pretty dam good lol lol I'm surprised
It started to get the best of me lol
Blow torch to melt away the plastic?
Believe me, that thought did cross my mind!
Where do i buy that dangledo?
I made that, but, I have been buying all my lanyards and beads from Basement Bench Brand lately.

💪Knife os a beast to destroy 😊
Oh, Sr. you have to wear protection gloves. The video was incredible, and it is a real full tang knife. Thank you!
Yeah, I think I needed more than gloves haha
Fairly close to a rat tail. That's awesome to see it like that!
It was quite neat to see!
yeah thats what i thought too. they specify full tang on their website but its more like a partial hidden tang. its tough though but i still think a proper full tang is tougher
It's a hidden tang lies its not full tang super disappointed
@@Jonesy87371Pay a couple hundred more and get what you want. I have Randal,Benchmade , spyderco and others, carry my strongarm almost always especially hunting.
And you could what question mark
?
You can always put a brass guard and deer antler handle on it make it better or great again lol go trump lol
13:13 i thought the tang would be thicker
I was a little disappointed in that, but I haven't had an issue yet
My kinda man hell yeh got to know what my knife is made of good or not lol lol good job bud lol not to big on Gerber anyways lol I'm a make my own or buy a tops
Man, I have beat the Strongarm to pieces. I have many other units and 2 of them have been work blades and no matter how hard I try, and I have tried, I cannot break them.
Knock yourself out Bro. If you got the skill to make your own or buy a more expensive knife that is just as good as this one do it. I paid $30 for my Prodigy. The drill bit to make your first hole will cost more than that. 🙂
@@johnnywishbone932 yeh I been building knives over 40 years lol that's why when I want a new one something different I buy tops because they mostly use same kinds of steel I build with nice to see somebody else's take one a build like tops
god thank you dont lose one of your finger on this video
came pretty close with that saw
Lol right? All for the UA-cam
It took a strongarm to destroy the strongarm lol
Yeah lol!
Why?😎
I have plans for a new handle
Сделать рукоять из микарты и будет тебе счастье ❤
That may be the plan!
What hat are you wearing?
That's an Akubra Territory.
@@MaddawgEDC Excellent, thanks. I have a hat very similar to that only it's made by Levine Hat Co. in St. Louis and it's all heavy leather. I got the Barcelona straw sun hat from American Hat Makers last year an love it. Again, it's like the shape of yours but in stiff sturdy white straw. I prefer the "Western Style" hats where the brim is flat on the sides and back and the front is turned down over the traditional cowboy hat both sides turned up. Another good one is the Stetson Gun Club.
You destroyd an excelent knife! And for what??? Maybe you have too much money... spending for nothing usefull. I only regret the knife... detroyd whith no purpose...very sad...
I'm impressed you spelled "too" correctly. Good job 👍
I think the "destroy it" then tests the knife itself... like your English was tested ....
@@mitchmunro2744 I'm sorry about that. I'm not american or english, i'm portuguese and i don't speak or write very often in english. One more time i'm realy sorry. But in the end i mantain my idea about this video. Period.
But why destroy the new 1 and not the old 1
The old one is my main work knife, the new one was acquired specifically for the project. I wanted a fresh blade for the rehandle.... That so far I've never finished haha
OK that makes sense i guess
This is not full rang this is hidden yang I thought this knife was full tang wtf
It is full. See the hole at the end? That's the lanyard loop.
Oh ok I thought full tang had to be wider.
@@Jonesy87371 it would be nice if it did, but no sir
