HERE's MORE Info About the MSK-1 Multi-Scenario Knife:
“If Things Went Really Bad in the World and You Could Only Have One Knife for the Rest of Your Life, Which Knife Would You Choose?”
I get asked this question all the time…
Over the years, I’ve used, tested, and reviewed hundreds of knives… but I've never found an all-in-one knife that could do everything I need for camping, backpacking, survival, tactical training, and general utility use wherever I go.
So in 2014, I decided to develop a solution… I started sketching, integrating elements from blades I loved, along with innovations that had never been seen before in one knife.
Let me introduce you to… MSK-1: Multi-Scenario Knife.
The MSK-1 is much more than an innovative knife that’s big enough for any job, small enough for any kit, and tough enough for any situation. It’s a complete survival system that you’ll be able to use for your lifetime and then pass on to the next generation.
Please Support this Project on Kickstarter: www.msk1knife.com/
When the original MSK-1 sketches were created in early 2014, we made the decision NOT to compromise on materials or cut any corners. To me this meant the knife HAD to be designed and manufactured in the USA and made from the finest materials. I remember saying…
“Dude, we’re gonna do this right or we’re not going to do it at all.”
Now, I realize... at the end of the day… my relentless commitment to excellence means this knife is not going to fit every budget… I wish it did…
But for those who support this project, the MSK-1 may be the single best outdoor gear investment you ever make.
Please Support this Project on Kickstarter: tinyurl.com/MSK-1-Kickstarter
MSK-1 SPECIFICATIONS:
Full tang, fixed blade, fine edge
Blade material: D2 high carbon, semi-stainless, tool steel
Blade thickness: 0.25 inches (0.64 centimeters)
Handle material: Canvas micarta
Blade length: 4.6 inches (11.7 centimeter)
Overall length: 11.3 inches (28.6 centimeter)
Weight: 15.8 ounces (28.3 grams)
Handle survival kit
Switchback ACS 2-in-1 sheath system: Ballistic Nylon and Kydex
Made in the USA with American Materials
Lifetime Warranty
We'll even sharpen and tune your MSK-1 (just send it to us).
Please Support this Project on Kickstarter: www.msk1knife.com/
THE OPPORTUNITY: I Need Your Help!
As you can see… there’s innovation behind every detail of this knife… But all this adds up to more than a tough, versatile, all-purpose outdoor knife…
The MSK-1 is a comprehensive survival knife system that’s designed to survive life’s worst, and help you enjoy life’s best.
Now we need your help. Your contribution will enable us to complete our first production run… funding the custom tooling, material purchases and highly skilled craftsman required to build each knife.
With your support, we’ll bring this one-of-a-kind, handcrafted, Made in the USA knife to you and to the world.
And please share this campaign with your friends and family: tinyurl.com/MSK-1-Kickstarter
THANK YOU for your encouragement and kind support!
And remember, BE PREPARED… Because You Never Know.

For $325, I can get a Gransfors axe, a BK-2 AND a good backpack!
Exactly.
right on brother
true
lol so true!! I went on his website to see how much it would be in got shocked!!!
I'm sorry but this guy always seems to be an advertiser for junk. I am sure he made a good amount of money doing this but taking him serious, I think not. I don't know how he became so popular with survival stuff and would really be curious how he would actually do in an actual situation. I also think Gerber is garage as well, put this up there with the Bear Grylls line of knives. For that price range, I could build a complete survival kit.
Really nice knife. Love how many, yet useful and not just gimmicky features are included in it, like for example a survival kit in a full tang knife. Beside from that the overall design of the blade and the handle seems really thought-out as well. Finally someone made sure the extras don't get in the way of the main purpose of a knife.
Really appreciate your analysis and encouragement. Have a great day! ~David
Samael Exorcist well said!
nice job of reaching your goal I can't wait for you to do a full review on it
Been searching and searching for what I want in a camping knife and it's like you made this just for me. Order placed, thank you, can't wait to get it out in the woods👍🏼
I think that you have a good product.
Though personally, I have not own and won't ever consider to buy any knife beyond US$150.
I love knife, but a knife is still just only a knife and I got a better place to use that money on ... my family.
And about this knife, given the price, I'm sorry to say that I rather get something that is cheaper and spend the rest to learn new skills.
Skills last forever, material do not, thank you.
well said bro. I have tons of knives. 400 bucks though? I'd rather buy a good hatchet with a good fixed blade. which I have. I love my paramilitary and eastwing double edge. have some cordage, fishing line with hooks, and a fire starter of some sort. boom. I have still spent less... ps paramilitary 2.....
al manneck check out a Gransfors Bruks axe I have a few of them they will last forever
Enzorox true dat
Well said.
You've got many, many competitors. Easy example is the Esee 5. If you lower your price a little, a lot more people will be buying.
It's a knife collectors knife. A custom build with a limited run. It is not yet a production knife, hence the price.
Agree 100%. Even made here, agains are to high, that's the problem with USA made. Right at $200 or even $225 you have a winner though. Crap... I love it so I'll probably get one:-)
Seriously ! It is one of the best video i have ever seen to show a new quality product ! From the camera angle to the field test ! It takes only 30 seconds and you already know it is the best knife ever made ! I bought it and i can wait to use it for the first time !! Good job on the knife and the video :)
Seriously i think it's the best marketing video i have ever seen !!! ... I watch it like 35x time in 5 months i am obsessed with that knife lol i bought my MSK-1 i can't wait to receive it and try it ... Incredible Job David
Really cool design, seems like the perfect balance between the BK2 and BK7, which are also really great knives. I really like the fire starting features and the overall look. It's also great that you make it in the U.S. These days everyone imports from China or Japan, it's nice to see you support your own economy.
+Brandon Monroe Wow Brandon. Thank you for the kind words. Good observations with regards to the BK2 and BK7. Some of my favorite knives and I love the hefty build... but I've had a rough go doing fine detail work with them. So, we designed the MSK-1 to have the heft but a bit more agility and versatility. Yes, as far as my convictions, I wanted the MSK-1 to be a legacy knife that would last a lifetime... making them here in the USA allow strict quality control and fantastic materials. Even our sheath are Made in the USA - they even have an American Flag sown into the back :) Have a great day! ~David
+Ultimate Survival Tips Thanks for replying and I wish you the best of luck and success with this knife. I'm 14 year old starting bushcraft/prepping from Quebec, so the knife is a bit out of my budget.. Haha. Us viewers from Canada will have a bit more trouble buying the knife with the whole weak currency and shipping ordeal. Where I live there is a 15 percent tax and it may cost close to half a grand for someone in Quebec to buy the knife. Anyways, good luck, and keep spreading the importance of being prepared. It would also be pretty cool if you did knife showcases in Canadian cities such as Montreal, Ontario, and Vancouver to expand the reach of this market to us viewers/survival enthusiasts up north. Anyways, thanks for the awesome content David, you are the survival UA-cam channel that inspired be to start being prepared.
Ultimate Survival Tips + Hope you can find a place to mount the American flag patch on the front of the sheith. Thanks for making that rugged tool available.
Nice Knife....but that price!
Love it well-made and a lot of thought put into it I fully intend on buying one
Haha I love how serious he gets in some shots but we all know he's a softie. Might just have to get this knife it looks amazing
It was never a bad knife , just too costly thus better out there for ability/price ratio.
looks a lot like a k-bar warthog.
You can definitely tell that a lot of thinking when into this incredible design, so cool! can't wait to get one.
Watching this video was the best ever, every idea you have incorporated into this knife are such good ideas everyone of them had me saying "wow such a good idea" definitely going to pick me up one of these !
It looks like that when the end of days come, the only people left will be sporting really expensive survival knives.
It might be like Thor's hammer but it is bloody expensive " Ultimate Survival Bundle*- Avalible in: $499 - $799 Pledge Packages" I'm not paying this much I'm just gonna get the gerber lmf 2 for a quarter of the price
By the way I'm a og and I used to watch it since I was 7 now I'd come back to this channel and wow congrats man it's great to see you subscribers bigger than before I hope your channel grow even bigger thanks for my child hood man .
I don't usually care or think about knives but I was glued to this video.....I learned so much about knives.....I want one just for the design aspect....I have absolutely no use for it in my life though....but I really want it:)
That is cool. Neat knife!
Excellent steel choice. D2 done right is pretty much unstoppable. Best of luck with it David!
Hello David
I received my MSK1 Ultimate bundle a few weeks ago and was out using it yesterday, I have to say i am really enjoying the purchase. I was able to hack at a tree without breaking a sweat and not hurting myself. I can not wait to see what other products you come out with by the end of the year, My wife would liek to have one but we are waiting for the smaller MSK1 to come out as the one that is out now is too big and heavy for her to use. The Knife was spot on and cant wait to see what else i can pick up from you to make it easyer in the bush when we go camping. GOOD JOB AND KEEP'EM COMMING.
great video! Pretty high production value and time invested.
This looks like something TOPS knives would produce. Did you consider working with them? Anyways, I am currently not in the financial position to support you in any meaningful way, but you can bet I am gonna get one of your knives the minute I can afford it! You are the first survival channel I followed, it`s been years, you were just getting started back then. Hope to see many more years of your videos!
Looks like a Tops Stryker Defender but more like a Scar Papa Bear.
Nice. I am honored that you would suggest working with fine folks at TOPS. There are certainly some similarities in how we all like to over-build blades. Thanks bro. ~David
sir, if I am allowed to choose only one knife for practical use,
I will choose the Army Air corp/force standard issue survival of knife!
+Marcel Patrick Yiu Nice! ~d
cool knive. i think that u did a great job designing the knive. i sure do wish i could have one:)
Not just a knife, but a whole survival system. Impressive. Most impressive. When it's ready, I definitely want one. Great job, David.
i could make a bug out bag with $400
ikr lol
awesome321 you are right , think about it , I will definitely want the works, which basically it's going to be 600 bucks, that's completely crazy
I like it but it's 2 much for me if I where looking 2 spend money I would buy the mora full tang or a BK knife
Anyways great video and knife:)
great job on the blade, can't wait to get my hands on one, WoW!
Congrats on the knife. Looks really quite good!
That knife is damn near $300 bucks. Get a Tom brown tracker for $200 or the becker bk2 for like $85.
Another 500.00 knife for "serious" preppers and survivalist lol! Get a BK from Ontario.
That is a beautiful knife David nice work. I would change out my sch36 for that one
Nice video Blade Looks Good thanks for sharing atb John
I have thoroughly enjoyed your no-nonsense videos for a few years now, thank you. I love everything about your knife. I wish it great success. I immediately planned on purchasing/supporting your knife until I saw the retail price of 400$.
You can get one now starting at $279 as a Kickstarter early bird special.
+Wisconsin Northwoods Understood. I know several folks are disappointed at the price point. (OH... and before I go on, the Kickstarter Early Bird is $279... sheaths and shells can be added later)... But original goal was around $150... that disappeared as I got quotes from US manufacturers and continued to innovate and decide to make this a legacy knife unlike any other... with no compromises. I'm working on an itemization that may help folks at least understand what it takes to make a knife like this - with premium materials, handcrafted in the USA. I think some will be surprised to find how low our margins really are. This will not help folks who simply don't have the money get one, or relieve the disappointment, but may help them understand what it truly takes to handcrafted a quality knife like this in the USA. I am thankful that you like the knife though. And wish that it fit your budget. I am confident that you would not be disappointed. For now... thank you for your encouragement and support of our channel and all! Have a great day brother! ~David
+Ultimate Survival Tips Thank you for that reply and explanation. It does aide to ease some of my disappointment. I want to say I highly respect your resolve for making this a Made in the USA knife and I have no doubt it will be made of the highest quality. I look forward to the many youtube reviews of your knife. Who knows, hopefully by then I'll have saved enough pennies to purchase one for myself.
Ultimate Survival Tips + Made In America has gotten out of ballance compared to the average worker's income, because of the growing division in incomes. In the 90s I designed and built a prototype of a good climbing tree stand. The cost to fabricate them was the same as where the selling point needed to be. That before liability insurance, packaging, shipping, retailer fair profit. And without that last factor, sales are a fraction of possible, keeping the price up. The United States people had better get back to seeing what the Creator has to say.
As far as a "SURVIVAL KNIFE" goes, I think you did a pretty good job. Testing countless knives DOES make it easier to know what will work and what won't when you design your own. The geometery looks good. Jess-X is proof that a stout body with a low saber works, so this should baton great. Centerline point...check. Final sheath included: Check. Price makes sense to me. A Jessmuk with a Yellow Hawk kydex rig is going to end up about the same price. I think some people process the price differently when it's not all in one. Easier to justify than if you actually add up the price of the custom knife you want, PLUS the custom sheath with all the bells and whistles all at once. If one is being honest, the price is fair given what you get.
+PREPAREDMIND101 I agree wholeheartedly.
+PREPAREDMIND101 And its D2 steel, the only downside iits a pain in the ass to sharp.
So you going to replace your beloved $92 JESSICA BK7 with the BEST Knife on the planet $440 MSK-1
I think Not. The BK7 has the MSK-1 Beat on many fronts
that moment when you find a popular ytuber comment on a popular ytubers vid
Nj Rapz Survivalist/preppers communuty are very close together and its happen on a regular basis
Congrats on such a dominating surpassing of your goal on Kickstarter! Your design looks great and I love D2 👍👍. Best of luck to you!
Good job man! Ive been following you for a while even though I don't do camping or survival trainings :) very inspirational!
+Vincentwytam Mucho Gracis' - Thank you for your kind words! ~david
what knife that taliban people use in afgan mauntain?
Very nice system. A lot of thought clearly went into it. When you calculate everything I see there, and made in the USA, the price doesn't seem outrageous at all. Seems about what I'd expect. I haven't designed an actual "survival knife" yet. I'd be hard pressed to do better.
Something i would not mind seeing you design Chris.
But the #1 issue any "survival" knife must contend with imho. It should be your EDC carry fixed blade package. And legal in most states... After that, bells and whistles. Well tough steel of course too...
I got a BK7 because of your channel as my first all-round survival knife Chris, and I would still say I prefer it over this one simply because I can afford it 😂
+mark marion He's done more research than 99% of youtubers. $450 is a bit pricey, but I agree with OP that it isn't 'outrageous'. I agree with you though, that I'd take the GSO in CPM3V over it. You could always get a $7k knife in D2, because they exist. $450 just doesn't seem like crazy money if you're already dumping a couple hundred or so. Fixed blade wise, I've never spent more than $207.
Player Review Steel isn't the same just because it has the same name. The source and the heat treat makes huge differences. And the maker he chose does very nice work.
PREPAREDMIND101 You'd know this better than about anyone and you're absolutely right about the steel.
good job.. really nice.. wish you all best in life and selling this freak of a knife!
huge thanks for showing this wonderful knife to us, stay awesome !! great video
Thanks Brother! ~D
To be honest why don't i just get a Jessica-X or a regular BK9 they seem to the the job and be cheaper.
Very different catagories.
Yes I see this MSK-1 knife will do it all "you did read his BOLD STATEMENT didn't you.
makes all other Knives Obsolete and trust him he knows he said so must be true, did ya miss that too
+SREagle Yeah i get it this knife will do it all and so will other knives that don't cost as much. So you want a good chopper get a Jessica-X, so you want a tactical knife get a Gerber Strongarm, or you want something small compact and can withstand it all then get a mora. Yeah this is his "ideal" knife but for people that dont want to spend 300$-400$, and if you do want to spend all that money why not get a Mora,Bk9 and Strongarm and still have money left over to get another knife. I bet people will still buy this knife but for the money and im also sure people won't buy this knife because either its too cheesy and it has a few limitations. But hey thats my opinion.
Thanks for the comment. For sure, MSK-1 is NOT for everyone. Be it the price point, the look, feel, your style, or the desired or intended use of the owner... etc. that's why there are literally tens if not hundreds of thousands of knife designs out there. For functionality MSK-1 does a very wide range of things well. It can do ALMOST anything, but like every knife has limitations. Like it's not a very good machete... like a longer blade would be. It's a GREAT chopper, but no match for an axe... It's not as good at wood carving as a small carving knife (but it can carve)... You can filet a fish with it, but it's not going to perform as well as a specialized filet knife. Like Chris's mentioned... Jessica-X is a fantastic blade... just a different catagory of blade, designed for a different purpose. I hope this helps. Good debate! ~David
Read All, Your statements open you up with ALL these Outrageous Claims;
MSK-1 the Best All-Purpose Survival Knife for Any Situation YOU SAY,
the Ultimate Bug Out Bag Survival Knife YOU SAY,
Camping, Hunting, Bushcraft, Prepping, Tactical, Emergency Kits and Bug Out Bags YOU SAY
These are very BOLD Statements,
1. Camping "Maybe I personally wouldn't use it for camping" but maybe some would just not seeing it.
2. Hunting "I really do not thing so, not sure what kinda hunting your talking about Not a Skinner"
3. Bushcraft "Come on be Real"
4. Prepping "Perhaps again wouldn't be on my list"
5. Tactical "NO FRIGGING WAY sorry but cut me a break, to heavy I could go on and on"
6. Emergency Kits "Possible but there is the weight issue"
7. Bug Out Bags "Maybe for some Definitely not for me"
8. the Best All-Purpose Survival Knife for Any Situation "No way, WOW now that's a Bold Statement"
9. the Ultimate Bug Out Bag Survival Knife "Again that's a BOLD Statement"I do not think that knife exist"
David, it's hard to say as basically all your vids say every knife is so great but if you really are a true outdoors person then you will know that one knife can not do everything, even in a survival situation situation that requires the use of a blade and it is very dependent on the environment you happen to be stuck in, Or even if you aren't in a survival situation. If it's made fully in the USA from all USA made raw materials then ok the price will be high due to higher labour costs (that's ok) but now i notice that made in the USA can now mean simple "assembled in the USA with either foreign raw materials and locally sourced home grown stuff. As for the D2, working near the salt water would require constant washing AND drying of the cord wrapped handle. Even with my old Strider MFS originally made with ATS34 rusted up on the tang if I got it near the salt water (all coastal applications) and really required the cord to be removed and thoroughly washed down in fresh water. But it's still ok. But I've got to say that MFS is a real workhorse too.
That is one sweet blade system. Well thought out.
Wow.... That is an absolutely brilliant package! nothing out there today can compare to the practicality and versatility that this offers. I think I just found my new utility/survival blade! 😆
Sooo its basically the Kabar Warthog with a different sheath and 6 times the price lol no thanks...
Better steel and better heat treat and higher quality and better detailed and better sheath and far better sheath options I bought it all and I'm impressed you must not have much knowledge on knives because my MSK1 has 154 steel and is made bye Tops Knives your one of them miss informated doofuses that assume to much kabar is trash compared to the quality of the MSK1.
Love it! BUT it's too pricey...
So true I got 600$ from my grandparents and as I love survival gear I spent it on that but I didn't want to spend my money on an overpriced knife.
srvctek1 how much is it?
STEV0GAMING GAMING over $500 for the package
that knife looks awesome great design david!
That looks awesome!
oh my God a meteor hit the earth now I need to buy a $300 knife because that's the only thing that will save me!!!
LMFAO!!
+ToroMoto "things are bad in the world" well I guess this knife will stop Hillary Clinton from being elected feed all the starving and homeless veterans in the world and bring about world peace all for $399.99
+lastgunslinger3759 no reason to be a jerk...
+lastgunslinger3759 quit being a douche
ooooh so angry!
in what survival scenario would you need to crush rocks??
When you are being crush by a big rock??
Ron Banks
The rock he's using (albeit a soft one) is just a visual cue that the pommel is durable and aggressively designed. You'd be more likely to crush black walnuts (harder than the rock he used) or drive stakes, etc.
It is feasible to reduce a rocks size if using it with a fire pit in some way, I could think of a few reasons... BUT the point of the demo is that you CAN, not that you'd need or even want to.
The world is obsessed with negative, over-thinking about a anything they see these days. Advertising is full of nonsensical things. In the words of the immortal one... "Don't wory... Beee happy." LOL
Boomer Taylor I would just think another rock would be better to crush rocks, rather than sacrifice a perfectly good blade. but I see what you're saying.
Ron Banks
Like I said, Ron. Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. It just shows it off and looks cool on a video and gives the "ooh" factor. Better to crush walnuts or a car window than a rock. :)
Ron Banks only thing ull be crushn if u buy one is ur nuts..!!!!
this chucklefuck outta his fckn mind..!!!!
Nice work, I dig it
ive been waited for a video like this thank you so much
+MrWhiteHoodie Games Glad you liked it. ~D
If you’re reading this, just get an Esee…
The knife will cost you $279 minimum if you support the Kickstarter campaign, or $399 - $439 MSRP.
I hope this is of help to anyone considering buying one, I personally would not spend more than $300 on this knife.
Thank you. Yeah . To much for my budget right now. I will Pass on that really awesome Kickstarter project. Sorry David.
looks awesome!!
Thank's for another great video David,now that's what I call a useful knife!!!...
Thank you Eric for your encouragement! Have a great day! ~David
Literally the most badass knife I've ever seen!
So basically it's a modern day rambo knife.
its a modern day piece of shite
@@dermotmcgreevy5220 still don’t know what’s wrong with it!?
@@dermotmcgreevy5220 very based man knows how a knife look
very nicely done!
Beautiful knife will definently have to add this to my collection. Well done.
+Johnny Stribling Thank you Johnny. I think you are going to like this a lot.
Absolutely insane!
+HeHoZy :)
+Ultimate Survival Tips how much for it
+Estevan Pargas $300
Only thing insane about this knife is that price point.
+MrTHL1 Yep, I agree, I was almost all in until the price point. Way over my tipping point for purchase.
Your price point is way too high for what you are offering.
Amazing! Can't wait to get one.
ok I would spend my money for this knife system for defense, survival, pretty much EVERYTHING in one! you made a great product, love that optional sheath you did too!
cant justify 300 on a knife. but kuhl concept.
NOPE! for $500plus, i can assemble an awesome survival kit including tent,gear,and food!
nice knife tho.
David, I want you to know that I love the MSK1! Awesome knife set. Keep up the great videos. Where in PA are you located?
Looks great!
between 600.00 and 300.00 for a knife? What? That is just insane, good luck with that
Is it well balanced for throwing?
When would you need to throw a survival knife? Lmao
when you are hungry and wanna catch a elephant
If you want a throwing knife get one... Only for sport and fun do you throw a knife as there is no practical use.
thats like saying throwing a spear isn't practical for hunting, no one may have killed game with a throwing knife, doesn't mean it's not impossible..
+Wings facepalm
WOW Congrats on the kickstater David I just saw the numbers. One day when I make enough money ill buy one. Sadly won't be in the near future :(
loved the design and concept of the blade and sheat. lots of dollar on this one
music 1:26 please)
A year later an still no answer. What a dAm shame.
This whole survival thing is becoming a rich mans game. I have been going out with nothing but a small pack and a buck knife that my father left me for 30 years and not only survived but did very well. $400 is a stupid price to pay for a knife and with people like you promoting such expensive gear you are just feeding the beast. Shame on you.
U got that right
Was looking for a knife (bush crafter and sometimes teacher)... and built it myself... Used it for years now.. WELL within the $100 mark..
admired all the cllection of your knievs!
Great job!
D2 steel is nice. The rest of the knife though.........
Im German. But A Ka Bar Becker. Or Schrade 52 High Carbon Stell. Or Cold Stell Master Hunter. That ar awesome Knifes. And all togehter for the Same money. . Im Take my Ka Bar. My Gransfors Axe and my Leatherman Blast. More then enough. And much cheaper. Omg the price is a joke.
David please post more to UA-cam I love your videos man
I loved it. Well designed knife
300 dollars?!?! Yeah no
Naw I'll just stay with my bushmaster , way too expensive
okly seems pretty cool and i wanne have it just
question
can and will you ship to the netherlands and at what cost
and wenn wil the knif hit the marked
Sweet knife. Great design
For the same price, i can have an indestructible bk2 with micarta scales, a sawyer mini, a firesteel, some paracord and a silky saw
Much more efficient, and more sturdy than this gimmicky stuff
I don't understand how TOPS supposedly makes this knife, but....
TOPS makes knives that are 1095, come with mycarta scales, .25 thick, kydex sheath
For $150-$175
Why would you not listen to potential customer feedback? It doesn't make any business sense man, I'm trying to give you my money but you make it impossible.
Looks awesome
hay david great knife but just a question...how are you suposto open the handle for the kit in a real life SHTF scenario??
how can anyone say D2 is a tough or unstoppable steel? False. Even done right and getting the most potential out of it doesn't even pit it in the top 10 survival steels. It is less tough than A2 even. it has decent wear resistance and stain resistance and that's about all. It is brittle and prone to chipping. Its lateral strength is poor. "D2" and the word "tough" should never be used in the same sentence. Im nearly stating fact. Show me real world data that proves me wrong. Charpy C tests even? Something. You can't cause there is none. 👍 There no reason to have an edge geometry like that either. Looks like a 25 DPS edge. if it were truly tough the primary grind would be at a sharper angle and so would the secondary.
+Justin Davis Hi Justin. I really appreciate your comment. Much has to do with heat treat. Just so you know but there are quite a few metallurgical charts online that would counter your views. FYI... the knife used in most of the pounding, batoning, chopping etc... (basically the hard use) shots in the MSK-1 video is NOT a brand new knife... It's my personal MSK-1 that I have had since this time last year... I have beat the crap out of this thing, never put it on a stone to sharpen it... run it one time in a year (10x on each side of the blade) on a SUPER Fine mesh ceramic rod (just because) and ONLY have stropped otherwise... Once or twice a week with Yellowstone compound worked into my homemade leather strop and it still shaves the hair off the back of my arm. But thank you for your comment. I REALLY appreciate it. Have a great day brother! ~David
Surprised at some of the comments on here, $325 might be a lot, but we are talking about a hand made, USA sourced steel knife. There are plenty of knives that cost way more money, my Murray Carter neck knife is 50% more than that one is worth, and is half the size. As long as its made well, and (in my opinion) has a good warranty - its worth what it costs. People complain about no jobs, and poorly made products overseas, then when they're made in North America, complain they're too expensive, typical.
Spinal2111 look at the specs and the steel. for 325 i can get a dark timber which is made the old fashioned way.
Spinal2111 might as well get an ambush alpha or brkt
Hand made sure sure, bet a guy named joe once touched it so now it's hand made lol
LOOKS LIKE A GREAT KNIFE CANT WAIT TO GET ONE JUST SENT IN MY PLEDGE!
you should really test the martini knives out.
btw i love your videos.
cheers from Finland
Not all made in usa are good how many usa company maker closed and bankrupt coz they make crappy stuff
Xi Jinping aproves👍
thank you tencent
If you want to survive I strongly recommend a knife that isn't tacticool trash like this.
People keep on saying this what’s wrong with it?!
No it isn't trash you maybe but it is severly overpriced due to it being a first in the manufacturing, you probably won't understand that since you are clearly a close minded person but it is now a lot better at 230 to 250 dollars with cpm 154 a much better steel
That's a great looking system David
Ah this is a better video show casing it and it does look good. Good job.
Also world wide shipping is great for everyone.
