Dude your stress test on blades is INSANE...Best Stuff I've EVER Seen because you show what a blade is capable of and for that I COMMEND YOU. Earned yourself a new subscriber...Keep up the Good Work
+g50iceman Thank you ! I am really glad to have friends on my side, and I will continue the stress testing of the blades next year ! Thanks for watching, Merry Christmas :) Mayor Fuglycool
Yes I owen the camillus carnavior x and used it on my moose hunting trip in Maine and even i didn't go through a brik or cinder block or cut wire with the hook. The hook is way better field dressing game and handling fire wood and other tasks at hunting camp I've not making any complaints about it's preformens . My self I'm a veteran and outdoors men and hunter and bush crafter r.stark
+WeAllJuggleKnives Yeah ! My chickens are pretty crazy. They love to follow me around, and of course, be a part of the action . Thanks for watching brother :) Mayor Fuglycool
That's pretty impressive, I got my son one of the early versions of this knife and he managed to break it on a pine knot pretty fast. I felt bad, it was his birthday present. Ended up getting him an old timer bowie instead. Wish they had THIS version available when I bought it.
I picked up a used carnivore X recently, just took it out to the woods and was testing it on pine knots, along with my RMJ inspired homemade tomahawk(not full tang, imitated Contours of the head with Hickory handle). The carnivore didn't last long before it got waves in the edge. The hawk did well and kept an edge but split the handle.
Thank you for getting rid of my fears! I bought the knife knowing nothing about it besides it was a Camillus, I have two of their pocket knives.One was my grandpa's and they stay sharp for a long time. I'd looked at reviews and people said it would break in half on them. Found your video and now I know i'll have this for a very long time. Thanks again!
I really appreciate the great responses, and I do cherish having awesome subscribers like you ! I am really thankful that you loved the brick and cinder challenge, and I will definitely keep those tests in the Mayor's challenge :) Mayor Fuglycool
When you did the pull up test I was hoping for your sake the blade didn't snap, your neck or face might have been cut. Thank you for your testing on all the blades so far, you do valuable work. Just an idea, maybe put a couple of strips of duct tape covering the blade edge and the saw toothed spine...
also thanks for the video the Gerber Strongarm I always thought it was a crappy knife till I saw your video I went and bought it as a gift for my brother-in-law and he really likes it (I don't like giving crappy stuff to people)
I just bought my second Carnivore X. First one was stolen. But I put that thing through absolute hell, never failed me. And it cuts through 4 inch green limbs with one 45 degree chop. Had to get another one, couldn't live without it.
I just picked up this knife on clearence at Walmart for $15. Wish a small test of the multi tool was included. But other then that I enjoyed this review and am glad I ended up with a good knife. Thanks.
+Stody Lee Thanks for watching ! Yeah, I decided to not do the multi tool test, but now that I look back I kinda wish I would have done it. Thanks for the support ! Mayor Fuglycool
I love the chicken test, I find it equal to a 1/3" pine dowel wrapped 4 times in duct tape, if it makes it through that, it will make it through a chicken. The problem with chickens is 1. Cutting through the feathers without pulling them out. And 2. Making it all the way through the skin and nerves, if it's dull it will just pull them down into the log without severing them. I personally use a $4 24" Chinese machete that I modified by removing and re-grinding the edge, and making a wood handle.
Just received one for my birthday, very anxious to take this camping, maybe even light enough to clip on my pack while hiking. Awesome demonstration of the capabilities of this reasonably priced multipurpose knife.
I've owned mine for a year now and have hacked through a hard wood table top so I was impressed with that but this video is above and beyond. You show the extremes this blade can handle which at times (.50 ammo can, and pull ups) made me as a blade lover cringe bad. Yet the proofs in the pie, this knife is well worth the cost at the big W store or the online A store.
for one thing the primary use for this is cutting through green limbs and tree branches in the woods. not treated lumber. this blade slides through green wood like butter. same with the saw. it is the best bang for the buck no doubt. thanks for the video.
For sure ! I test the treated lumber, as it is somewhat harder than a standard green limb. I am glad you loved the video, and I hope you check out more videos ! Thanks for watching friend :) Mayor Fuglycool
I paid $200 for mine and it's been through 2 years and still works fine. I've been homeless living in the woods (solo stealth camp) for over a decade and my carnivore had been my best tool and it's easy to carry and sleep with in my bag.
I just bought this knife at Walmart for $24.99 , before I even seen you test it, I came home and watched Your video before I took it out of the package...great video I'll keep it, thanks Mayor.
The Carvivore XZ is just the newer model. I bought the Carnivore X for $16 cause it didnt come with the smaller knife that was supposed to be with it. The "anti-theft" packaging is what I have to thank for mine. XZ Should hold up the same as the X, just stay away from the one with the rivets, that's the one that'll break in half.
I'VE NEVER SEEN A TORTURE TEST LIKE THAT. I WAS CRINGING WAITING FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN. HAS ANY OTHER MACHETE PASSED WITH SUCH FLYING COLORS AS THE CARNIVORE X?
+sharkinman Well, the Cold Steel HTC machete did well, and I am planning on an Ontario Machete for next year to test. Thank you for watching my videos, and I really do care for each and every one of my subscribers :) Mayor Fuglycool
Those are some pretty good stress and strength tests. I'm glad I bought mine. It served me pretty well so far, it clears just about anything I swing it at.
Great video i would never smash a brick with mine but its nice to see i could if needed to. It's great to see the blade you just bought taken to the limits and pass
I seen review of earlier camillus knives breaking or chipping while chopping wood. One commenter of another video suggest only, and only, the Carnivore X. Many have said this machete is meant for clearing brush and other small tasks. After what you put it through I will probably get one. However, as you pointed out the vibrations in handle other youtubers said the same.
Earned yourself a new sub. When I first started watching, I thought you were some kinda wack-job. Not long into the video you earned my respect, as you tested the blade like nobody else does. I have other machetes, but, will be ordering a Carnivore as soon as I finish this comment. I look forward to viewing your other videos. Thanks.
you probably had a original camillus carnivore this is the carnivore X which has a actual tang unlike the original. if yours had a camo handle then it was the original.
A.J. Rusinek I had the x. The tang wasn't the problem that held up. When I was cutting wood it chipped a cunck out about 1in by 1 in in to the belly of the knife. It was the heat treat on it was far to brittle for what the knife is intended to be used for. They gave me a new one and same thing happend
Im glad I watched this, theres a cinder block down the street thats been talkin junk and Im gonna get one and show him whats up lol, seriously great vid, I like seeing the knife tested, to many guys post "knife review" videos and all they do is show it to you and tell you how neat and cool it is and what it would be good for, when they've never used or tried it for anything
Why do people say don't try this at home for the simplest stupidest things, like I saw a video where a dude was cutting down some brush with a common backyard machete and the dude goes "Don't try this at home" defeating the purpose of a backyard machete
+Zednought Rhino I think those people might be joking . LOL Now I , (not people), say "don't try this at home" when I am busting cinders and steel ammo cans. Thanks for watching friend, and I hope this answers your question ! :) Mayor Fuglycool
Looks alot like the bk3 but with a saw on back, longer, cheaper, and I doubt Ethan Becker had anything to do with it. But mayor I do enjoy your videos. I laugh at the people that don't get it they say why would you do that with a knife. But they don't understand it's not about that it's about seeing how durable it really is! And not to mention there are tons of blades out there that can make it through your test. Keep up the good work good sir and please please please be careful. As you do for the most part
Normal stainless steel would have shattered. It proves titanium bonded does hardens the blade 3 X. I just got the more recent Injected model by Camillus, but for what it gains it loses on some qualities. This model handle ergonomics is better whereas the Injected has more grip due to the material. The Injected blade is a few grams heavier and less sharpened, more suited for chopping then slicing like the X model. The Carnivore X can be compared to a Scimtar and the Carnivore Injected to a Gladius short sword the way they can be handled. They should try to come up with a third model that combines the ergonomic handle and shape of the X with the grip material and sheat of the Injected. Maybe it would work!
I bought one of these blades at Wally world just to keep in my RV for splitting down firewood. It does that awesome! For $30, its really hard to go wrong. If you're an extreme survivalist who requires a blade that can cut an AK 47 in half, this probably isn't your blade. Get ready to drop at least three times what this blade costs if you are going to bet your life on the performance of what is basically a camping tool.
Mayor can you answer something about your test reviews on amazon have people claiming loosened handle after his branches broken blades did you feel any loosening of the handle at all?
I bought one from Academy. The blade broke clean in half on a small branch blade went flying & could have seriously injured someone. I was very disappointed.
Would to see you use the Camillus x little knife as a spear,spearing fish an what not. Thank you,I also have one of these knives that I bought from walmart for 29.00 dollars for a birth day gift,and I just love it.
Great video brother. I am very impressed with that knife. I personally didn't think it was capable of passing your test. It looks flimsy but its alot tougher then I originally thought. Great review.
I've been ignoring these knives at Walmart for a while...but for something to have when I go fishing to cut through crap that has grown in the paths or to cut some branches to use as makeshift fishing poles I wouldn't mind it. and spare my ka-bar kukri that date and save it for zombies and/or terrorists 😂
People want to make excuses for inferior products all the time, to justify their buying choices. If your knife can't hold up, that's not the mayors fault.
I thought for sure it would shatter like the Schrade machete. I'll be getting one of these. Thanks for the great reviews. With so many excellent knives these days, I'm glad you torture them to find out the durability.
Please Test some 200 EURO practical katanas or big fat cheaper Bowie Knives from Amazon ... 😜✌️ ..... you are the best Survival stuff Tester i 3ver saw .... god with you 🍀🍀🍀✌️😜✌️🍀🍀🍀
Camillus should be paying you for this. I can imagine no better advertisement of its quality. Maybe some naked ladies in the background but outside of that I can think of no way to make this video any better. Cheers!
Just bought this BEFORE seeing this vid. I CANNOT be more impressed by what you did to test this! I am a (LOOSELY sayin) weekend warrior for camping and wanted this for my collection. Cant wait for spring & summer (in MI) to use this.
No need to... The BUCK 119 would break rather quickly. The tip broke off of my 110 while I was opening a clear plastic clamshell package. BUCK heat-treats their steel to be very hard, which holds an excellent edge, but the trade-off is that they become brittle. They are made for hunting and light duty work, and for users who are very careful with their knives. I also own the BUCK MESA 632, it's somewhat more forgiving, but I'm not willing to gamble on doing anything extreme. The 119 is a great knife, it really is, but it's not meant for heavy duty use. Longtime BUCK owners have learned this through making a few dumb mistakes, they are for lighter/finer work, and as long as they aren't pushed beyond their limits they'll hold up great. The tip on my 110 was reprofiled and is back in the saddle, with no further issues.
Oh my god! I understand the importance of the different tests, but as someone who loves my blades, I cringed at whacking at cinder blocks bricks and metal 🤣🤣🤣 ouch!
I just picked up one of these andIm impressed. I always do this backward and buy first and then watch reviews. Looks like it was a good choice this time. Thanks Mayor and I hope your staying safe out there.
A lot of people say Smith & Wesson makes lousy knives (and some are pretty bad), but one of the best bargains out there is the S&W Homeland Security fixed blade knives. I got my 7Cr17 for $29.95 at Amazon, and I'd love to see you review it. It's very rugged but is the steel a liability (it used to be 440C) or is it a good balance between toughness and cutting ability? Again, I think the HS is one of bargains of the knife world. I've got one in the trunk of my car because it's a good self defense tool, plus it's great for getting snow and ice out of the wheel wells and for many other purposes. It slices paper like a thinner knife and is virtually indestructible. It also is a cool knife to fool around with.
Dude your stress test on blades is INSANE...Best Stuff I've EVER Seen because you show what a blade is capable of and for that I COMMEND YOU. Earned yourself a new subscriber...Keep up the Good Work

do not try this at home, says the guy trying it at home
i have actually have never thought about it that way
:P

As the old saying goes "Do as i say, not as i do"
Yes I owen the camillus carnavior x and used it on my moose hunting trip in Maine and even i didn't go through a brik or cinder block or cut wire with the hook. The hook is way better field dressing game and handling fire wood and other tasks at hunting camp I've not making any complaints about it's preformens .

Dude, that was awesome when the chickens just walked in and started eating worms while you dug.

That's pretty impressive, I got my son one of the early versions of this knife and he managed to break it on a pine knot pretty fast. I felt bad, it was his birthday present. Ended up getting him an old timer bowie instead. Wish they had THIS version available when I bought it.
The first version was indeed flawed. It wasn't full tang, and the short tang was very narrow. They would all break at the same point in the handle.
I had an early version of this knife and with literally only 1 hit on a pine board the blade snapped in half.
I picked up a used carnivore X recently, just took it out to the woods and was testing it on pine knots, along with my RMJ inspired homemade tomahawk(not full tang, imitated Contours of the head with Hickory handle). The carnivore didn't last long before it got waves in the edge. The hawk did well and kept an edge but split the handle.

Also, I like the brick challenge. Due to the fact that i've accidentally hit the cement with a knife before. Especially when throwing.
I really appreciate the great responses, and I do cherish having awesome subscribers like you ! I am really thankful that you loved the brick and cinder challenge, and I will definitely keep those tests in the Mayor's challenge :)
Mayor Fuglycool

Thanks for the tips ! Glad you loved the video :3))-o
Mayor Fuglycool
shoulda wrapped it in newspaper
To be honest you have to expect rolling when you hit a brick
with ever knife hahah
Just wait until you use it camping. Great blade for the price.
The saw is for notching only. But dang are those things sharp...
also thanks for the video the Gerber Strongarm I always thought it was a crappy knife till I saw your video I went and bought it as a gift for my brother-in-law and he really likes it (I don't like giving crappy stuff to people)

"Digging Blade" All survival knives should have digging capabilities 😉
EXACTLY what I wanted to see! Someone beating the absolute SH7T out of this thing! I definitely got my $30 worth- GREAT video! 👍🏼

I use that so called"wire cutter" for snapping vines and small in ground tree roots.

I got mine a few months ago when they were $12. It might be bc mine was an XZ but looks the same as mine
Yea, it's the same. I think it's XZ because it comes with a smaller knife
The Carvivore XZ is just the newer model. I bought the Carnivore X for $16 cause it didnt come with the smaller knife that was supposed to be with it. The "anti-theft" packaging is what I have to thank for mine. XZ Should hold up the same as the X, just stay away from the one with the rivets, that's the one that'll break in half.

Anything made by Buck...
@@MayorFuglycools must be a horrible knife as you didn't chop a boot stuffed with meat. JK, good stuff.
Bought mine as a throw-down just to keep in the truck not expecting much out of it. Now I’m thinking it might be the best $28 bucks I ever spent…
In my nearest Walmart, the machete costs $24.
I was expecting much less out of this blade even though i've had one for a while.
+Johnathon Davison Well, I am glad that you have seen what abuse it can take ! Stay tuned tonight for more blade action :)
Mayor Fuglycool
I see that at my nearest Walmart in the camping section every time.
Andrew Kennedy in would suggest it I got one and love it I've had no problems at all
I got mine at ACADEMY years ago,so far so GOOD N DURABLE!!
that was amazing lol I just got it for Christmas. my family spoiled me lol
Now that's a stress test. Definity subscribing. I have two of these that I will appreciated a lot more after watching this video. Great video..
Thank you my friend :)

I find this especially impressive because the gut hook/wire cutter should theoretically be the weakest part of the blade and it STILL held up.
Jumping out in the beginning and attacking the wood man? Emmy award quality!

Thanks friend, I appreciate the kudos ! :)

I seen review of earlier camillus knives breaking or chipping while chopping wood. One commenter of another video suggest only, and only, the Carnivore X.

I broke one of those cutting wood.
mine snapped on the 3rd swing in wood, p.o.s in my opinion.
you probably had a original camillus carnivore this is the carnivore X which has a actual tang unlike the original. if yours had a camo handle then it was the original.
A.J. Rusinek I had the x. The tang wasn't the problem that held up. When I was cutting wood it chipped a cunck out about 1in by 1 in in to the belly of the knife. It was the heat treat on it was far to brittle for what the knife is intended to be used for. They gave me a new one and same thing happend
JiB KinG 440a steel is fairly bad to be honest. So is 440b 440c is fantastic tho.
A.J. Rusinek you probaky did as there real shitty blades.

This thing feels like a dream when I hold it.
Never mess with a squirrel's nuts, 'specially if he has a Camillus Carnivore X.
Now THAT is how you test a blade!!!! Great production, Mayor!!!
Normal stainless steel would have shattered. It proves titanium bonded does hardens the blade 3 X. I just got the more recent Injected model by Camillus, but for what it gains it loses on some qualities. This model handle ergonomics is better whereas the Injected has more grip due to the material. The Injected blade is a few grams heavier and less sharpened, more suited for chopping then slicing like the X model. The Carnivore X can be compared to a Scimtar and the Carnivore Injected to a Gladius short sword the way they can be handled. They should try to come up with a third model that combines the ergonomic handle and shape of the X with the grip material and sheat of the Injected. Maybe it would work!
How can you call a knife the "Carnivore," when you cannot use it to stab and dispatch, skin, bone or butcher?
I like that the grip survived the abuse.
LMAO.. golden chick your crazy! a camillus sandwich....hilarious!

yep it sure did.
I've been ignoring these knives at Walmart for a while...but for something to have when I go fishing to cut through crap that has grown in the paths or to cut some branches to use as makeshift fishing poles I wouldn't mind it. and spare my ka-bar kukri that date and save it for zombies and/or terrorists 😂
I was in Walmart again and I found one with a black handle instead of an orange handle. That machete now is in 2 models.
I love this videos I also live in Texas so if I'm gana buy a blaid and see if its good enough I'm gana have to see this type of videos
Thanks for the support ! I really appreciate the great comments !
Remember, safety first ! :)

I guess if you have a cinder block wall that needs to come down, then this is the knife for you.
I have one of these and had faith in it the whole time. Low end but a great beater. Good day
I really like your videos. thank you😁
The next time you do any chopping or sawing, you might try stabilising the wood.
"Ok.. now we're gonna put the machete in its sheath.. safety first. Dont try this at home"
Cool :)

And there's a dull top of the blade for a pillow!!!
People want to make excuses for inferior products all the time, to justify their buying choices. If your knife can't hold up, that's not the mayors fault.
Brian Geiger who are you talking to fatty?
I thought for sure it would shatter like the Schrade machete. I'll be getting one of these. Thanks for the great reviews. With so many excellent knives these days, I'm glad you torture them to find out the durability.
I am surprised that this one held up so well. Thanks for watching friend ! :)

Hell ya proven tuff I love all the camillus gear I own it all
I like everything about the knife but the handle ... it seems a little to thin ...
Please Test some 200 EURO practical katanas or big fat cheaper Bowie Knives from Amazon ... 😜✌️ ..... you are the best Survival stuff Tester i 3ver saw .... god with you 🍀🍀🍀✌️😜✌️🍀🍀🍀
If I don't try it at home ⁉️🤔

Camillus should be paying you for this. I can imagine no better advertisement of its quality. Maybe some naked ladies in the background but outside of that I can think of no way to make this video any better. Cheers!
Nope I don't get paid, and they don't even contact me on social media to say "thanks" either :)

People would take this blade more serious if it didn't look so gimmicky.
Would you consider doing a review of the gil hibben Rambo 4 clone I hear it's a workhorse and the 1090 carbon steel is awesome let me know thanks!
That is an excellent idea, will think about it :)
Mayor Fuglycool
Thats a pretty cool blade. The small blade looks like it would be a good edc neck knife!
Just bought this BEFORE seeing this vid. I CANNOT be more impressed by what you did to test this! I am a (LOOSELY sayin) weekend warrior for camping and wanted this for my collection. Cant wait for spring & summer (in MI) to use this.
440 is such an aweful steel to use for this kind of knife. Very little flexion. I assume this was a cost cutting measure.
Run the buck 119 through the gauntlet
No need to... The BUCK 119 would break rather quickly. The tip broke off of my 110 while I was opening a clear plastic clamshell package. BUCK heat-treats their steel to be very hard, which holds an excellent edge, but the trade-off is that they become brittle. They are made for hunting and light duty work, and for users who are very careful with their knives. I also own the BUCK MESA 632, it's somewhat more forgiving, but I'm not willing to gamble on doing anything extreme. The 119 is a great knife, it really is, but it's not meant for heavy duty use. Longtime BUCK owners have learned this through making a few dumb mistakes, they are for lighter/finer work, and as long as they aren't pushed beyond their limits they'll hold up great. The tip on my 110 was reprofiled and is back in the saddle, with no further issues.
Oh my god! I understand the importance of the different tests, but as someone who loves my blades, I cringed at whacking at cinder blocks bricks and metal 🤣🤣🤣 ouch!
I just picked up one of these andIm impressed. I always do this backward and buy first and then watch reviews. Looks like it was a good choice this time. Thanks Mayor and I hope your staying safe out there.
A lot of people say Smith & Wesson makes lousy knives (and some are pretty bad), but one of the best bargains out there is the S&W Homeland Security fixed blade knives. I got my 7Cr17 for $29.95 at Amazon, and I'd love to see you review it. It's very rugged but is the steel a liability (it used to be 440C) or is it a good balance between toughness and cutting ability? Again, I think the HS is one of bargains of the knife world. I've got one in the trunk of my car because it's a good self defense tool, plus it's great for getting snow and ice out of the wheel wells and for many other purposes. It slices paper like a thinner knife and is virtually indestructible. It also is a cool knife to fool around with.
the chickens 🐥 lol
