    Very nice knife! I have a small Alonzo fixed blade that’s my EDC, and I love it. Seems to be very good quality, and it holds an edge fine (it’s 1095, so it’s practical but not too impressive) sharpens quickly, and is designed well. Very comfortable to hold and use, and the blade shape is versatile.
    It’s also nice looking. Alonzo really knows how to make a good-looking knife.

    Lol that was painful . What bothers me about how bad that knife performed is that People are going to associate that with the Tracker design this knife is a waste of money . for one the Tracker was intended to be a multi-tool of the woods but no saw back and I have my doubts that’s Carbon steel have you tried to get sparks off that with some Chert or flint ( not a ferro rod actual flint rock )my TOPS Tracker does .The idea of the Tracker was to be a WSK wilderness survival knife you will not survive with this .

      You are absolutely right. I own the Bark River Trakker and the Schanz WSK and both knives are really good. These knives have a specific purpose, you have to know the philosophy behind the design and how to use it right.

    Pretty thorough testing, my friend, not bad (the knife and the testing both). I have a similarly styled knife from Bobcat Knives that I bought last year (still new and unused, LOL, but I've picked up a LOT of knives since then and have been lazy on getting out to play with many them 😜🤣). Great review, happy weekend, brother 😊✌

      That’s incorrect, it was meant for survival, surviving in the wild means mostly building shelter, tools and traps. You can read the history of Tom Brown and the tracker design online.

    I was still optimistic after the first paper test, but that knife performed very poorly on everything. Never should it take so many strikes to chop through a 1 inch stick. The scrape test failed miserably; I have made much larger scraping piles with much smaller blades with far fewer scrapes. Even given the low skill level, that knife should have feathered waaaay better than it did. I'm totally unimpressed with that tool. You didn't test the curler, but I can guess the results. Maybe try a few other trackers, maybe a bit heavier up front, and see what you think. Maybe splurge a bit and drop $70 on one that comes with a sheath and stone. I think you'll see the difference and raise your standards. Trackers are workhorses, designed for everything from curling fatwood tinder bundles all the way up to chopping medium sized fuel wood and even notching hard wood for load-bearing and shelter type structures. Sure, they're beastly, ugly & a bit heavier than other outdoor blades, but try curling a 9" diameter ball of fatwood in 15 seconds with a Mora Whatever. Not. Gonna. Happen. Good video, sir. Thank you exposing this for me.

    Alonzo Knives are bad because they do animal testing and are deforesting and pollute the ozone and have gluten and are GMO. Also, they listen to gangster rap so loud it makes the neighborhood upset.
    Jokes aside, I'm sure they perform about as well as any Tracker. Frankly, I think a medium size bowie can do anything a tracker can do but better. But, I just ordered one, so we'll see. Good review.

It's tough as hell like their saying, it's no bullshit knife, an they ain't kidding. So next I'm getting a skrama ,it's a 33 degree angle edge except towards the eecassa,that one is 23 or 25 for finer task such as feather sticks an what not,an I say their sheaths are awesome, good retention without snapping the button ,but I'm not sure on the skrama sheath.
