Why are you doing splits in the intro like a female? Better question, why are you doing redundant destruction test on knifes? Chopping bricks for what? If I was the knife company I'd have your channel shut down.
Someone's mad at how good the knife is and what it stands up too again it's a military knife not a kitchen knife man be real 😂 it needs to do all this to prove its longevity you don't want to go out spending hundreds on the same knife because it can't with stand a bit of nature... that would be silly and what the Chinese knifes do unlike USA MADE.... I watched this and was happy there's a good product and people arnt getting ripped off... you on the other hand getting pissy because a knife needs to withstand drops, falls, hits and misses and still hold up to whatever it needs to do and this dudes channel serves the very purpose of showing everyone their favorite knife in action and how they fair against legitimate use and or misuse....
The fact that it's consistent with your other tests is what makes it good and interesting to me, seems like their build quality is therefor consistent.
Excellent job, as usual. I think the major knife companies should be hiring you as a consultant and letting YOU design a knife to your specs. I’d buy it. You know more about what it takes to make a survival knife than almost anyone else.
Great video, as always! I wanted to buy Cold Steel SRK V3, and now I'm thinking about this knife. What would you recommend? Looks like Gerber strongarm is slightly stronger.
@@joex Thank you for the reply and your awesome content. I bought the Gerber Strongarm in Warsaw for about a 100 euros. The problem is, I want more knives now.
Thank you so much for testing the Gerber strongarm, I myself have a strongarm i was wanting to know how strong the knife is. I really appreciate for someone like you to do such testing on knives. It really shows how good the knife is ❤👍🙌
For a stabber I would not pick it. It's too blunt I experienced. It can be called combat knife. But for combat it's not the best choice. Stabbing that is. Ontario SP5, SP1, SP3 are already much better choices regarding combat.
Good job. The only drawback to this knife is an average edge retention. Like many other knives, you'll have to resharpen it on a regular basis. Is is quick and easy, so it is not a real problem. For everything else, it's funny how these (US made) Gerber outclass so many expensive "supersteel-survival-bullshit" knives. Heat treating is everything.
Very impressive for a budget blade, I like it. Excellent pull-ups and Jean Claude would be proud of your flexibility. Red Bull and Gerber should be sponsoring you after this one, haha.
Thx Joe. Only when the metal has passed your test is it tested. No ranking without a hardcore test. After that, the manufacturers should first set their price 😉
Hey Joe, I am so excited I just received in the mail via UPS my new Gerber Strongarm 💪... I found website got it for like 53.00 us when everyone else is right at 80 us now.super excited
I wish o could post pictures to show how I have it set up now...also just finished sharpening it now it's very very sharp.. Where is a car door when I need one 🤣
Very interesting review Joe you like swimming I think it's funny be cause I used to be a life guard back in the day like 1970s snd 80s oh those were the days getting chased by girls oh yes . Take care Joe Kind regards Dave trog
Budget isn't my brand but when you find affordable stuff that works it means you can get extras for backups or replacements if you lose one or for loaning out to someone, AND it means you know yer not pissing yer money away 👍
A friend showed me some Joe X videos, and now I'm HOOKED! I love these no bs reviews of knives! The other day I watched Joe X videos for almost 5 hours. Kill those fucking zombies my friends!
It's Definitely on my list to add to the collection I just got my cold steel master hunter Japan model today !! I truly injoy gaining the knowledge of what knives can be put through thanks Joex for another great review 👍
Wow. Ok, you convinced me that Gerber makes a good knife. I never liked Gerber and had a lot of bad experiences with their products, but man this thing really took it like a champ. Thanks MR.X you are the best!
I LOVE this series, PLEASE make a "Let's Break It Again" or whatever you wanna call it type of video, where you retest profound failures or wins from the past, to see if they still hold up. If you have the funding, it'd be nice to see a few knives of the same model and steel, especially in the budget to mid realm, from different batches (purchase the knives at different times, wait for a few months between buying a duplicate) @JOE X I think a real long term potential of your channel is to test the current batches from each knife maker, to see if they are still holding up to what they should. These videos don't even have to be long, you can just test the most hardcore actions on each of your samples, each sample might only take up 1-2 min of screentime.
The Strong arm is like a well built old Toyota Helix. It will always be better than the newest and high end poorly built Lamborghini. Sure the Lambo is a flex on the poors when it wants to work, but the Helix will put in work when ever you ask it too and you're not afraid to put a scratch on it.
Amazed a Gerber lasted that long. Lately their track record hasn't been the greatest. Maybe things are looking up for them! Excellent video brother! Side note, I'm sore from just watching you do the splits on those logs 😂 ouch!
I picked one of these up last year, was on sale for 30$ at ACE hardware and the sheath sold me. Just grabbed it for my bug out mainly. Haven't done much more than some stripping wood with it. Appreciate the vid, makes me happier with my purchase now that I see it can hold up pretty well vs Joe 😎.
@@joex Definitely! I didn't know they ran double that usually, I guess they were just clearing inventory. Thanks again for your hard work reviewing, It wears me out just watching 😎. And you've saved me from wasting money on other overpriced products 👍🏼
Joe, you are my knife guru! I already have the Condor Discord, Cold steel jungle and the all terrain machete thanks to your tests! The cutlass is out of stock in Europe, unfortunately! Best regards, Joe!!!!!
JOE X, hi. In addition to what you are doing, I would like to advise you to hit the metal pipe with the flat side of the blade so that the weak point in the metal structure is destroyed faster. Good luck.
Gerber StrongArm stays STRONG!!! Awesome... I was wagering his knife would once again provide another tough, challenging test run.. To me, it appears to have impressive results given the difficult destructive testing plus timeline to the endgame. It is great to see relative consistency in destructive torture testing and abuse-type endurance. I have two StrongArms... the coyote-brown 420HC and the Limited Edition grey BDZ1. Both are really good, reliable allrounder field-knives going mild to wild. Great Show JoeX! Another request to please make a video for the KA-BAR Warthog.
Joe , I spoke to you about the Terrava Puukko ,which I purchased. I just purchased the gerber strongarm and will hopefully getting the APO 1s as my final fixed blade. I do own the prodigy and the cold steel trailmaster carbon v both super durable knives. Thanks for the videos to re-enforce my decisions. I also follow the DBK guys and they have faith in your extreme methods too! I did have two questions… 1st will you be doing and destruction tests on the “Jeo-Tec series” of knives and 2nd how did you train to get your “Pavel Tsatsouline” type flexibility?
He is showing his physical prowess. Have you ever shadow boxed for a 3 minute round. It’s basically the same type of physical activity. He is in excellent physical shape that is required to do what he is demonstrating. Keep up the good work. I just bought my Gerber strong arm based on your review. Thank you.

Pretty good. Not a lot of knives make it to the iron bar! Well done Joe.
thanks Lilliy, it is an awesome blade! everybody should accept it now!

Great review. I just purchased one because of your review. Thank you Joe!!!

You can tell when he truly likes the knife because he shoots it.⚔️
yeah!
Great videos man. You’ve been a huge help on which blade to carry and put my life on. Thank yo!!!!!!!!!!!

So many people hate on this knife. Glad you did a second video on it!
yeah, i proved them all wrong!!!!!!!!!
again!

It can be called combat knife.
But for combat it's not the best choice.
Stabbing that is.
Ontario SP5, SP1, SP3 are already much better choices regarding combat.
i've never come across a complaint about the strongarm.... the bear grills knife is what everyone seems to hate.

i think so too!
0:15 flexy Joe

SP8 to the strong arm. Both in my collection and used very often. They are both awesome knifes
yes they are!
nice cut on your finger. I think I will buy one for me and my son. Love your vids, keep em coming
u are welcome!
If you are in a survival situation and have to cut down a tree with the Gerber Strongarm, you better bring along Joe. Great Video
i am here for you!
Awesome!! Your videos are fantastic! Keep it up!
thanks a lot!
Most brutal testing of knives on youtube. Awesome Video JOE X!!
thanks a lot!
You get a thumbs up for doing a Jean Claude Van Damme !
thanks a lot!!!
Took almost 1hour total of Extreme Abuse! Thats Awesome!!

Hey Joe, I am so excited I just received in the mail via UPS my new Gerber Strongarm 💪... I found website got it for like 53.00 us when everyone else is right at 80 us now.super excited

Here we have a strong workhorse that‘s for sure!
Awesome testing as always, but synchronized double view action cam at iron rod workout is amazing! 🍻
thanks!!!
That knife might as well be "That One Tool" that is ridiculously strong
exaclty!
Budget isn't my brand but when you find affordable stuff that works it means you can get extras for backups or replacements if you lose one or for loaning out to someone, AND it means you know yer not pissing yer money away 👍
ok!
It is a tough knife ? Can I buy it for normal bushcraft and for combat ?
it is!
all!
Thanks !
Look like a pretty good knife. Another product worthy of the JOE X DESTRUCTION TEST!
yes i made 2 vids!
A friend showed me some Joe X videos, and now I'm HOOKED! I love these no bs reviews of knives! The other day I watched Joe X videos for almost 5 hours. Kill those fucking zombies my friends!

Doing the same thing, starting a best of JoeX collection :-) Had the Strongarm, bought an SR1, probably a Recon 1 next.
cool!

These videos are just as cool as the old cold steel videos.
thanks a lot brother!
Strong blade 💪🏻 👍👍👍
yes!
Thanks for testing this knife again. It's a good one.
it is!
Strongarm lives up to it's hype!
yes!
@3:52, After 1000 chops, aren’t you heading toward serious tennis elbow? Why not baton or chisel the tree down?
i am dead in 2 years! u will see!
So at the end would you recommend it? Thanks for sharing your tests, they're informative and funny
sure thing, awesome blade!
This man is the flexible version of GigaChad.
thanks!
The DBK guys got you to wear a patch!
i love Micki!
Wow I’m impressed again. That 420hc and build is very tough.
it is!

No one likes knives and can split a crotch 😊.JOE has not neglected his training. And I still don't understand why he still jumps into the pond.
i have to jump inside, because i live there!"
very nice to see part 2!!! awesome work! (13:21) Its a good job you have balls of steel because that strongarm was a bit too close! :)
thanks!
Man I just want to slice some potatoes or make a feather stick. Thanks for the info Joe X😊😊😊

Awesome video, very fun, excellent production.
thanks!
Love my strongarm
cool!
Awesome video. Would like to see a Busse Hell Razor 2👍🏻👍🏻
thanks!!!
Amazed a Gerber lasted that long. Lately their track record hasn't been the greatest. Maybe things are looking up for them! Excellent video brother!
Side note, I'm sore from just watching you do the splits on those logs 😂 ouch!
thanks, it did good now at 2 tests, so i think it is a "winner"!!! cheers!
The strongarm has been a solid budget blade for years
How has their track record not been great lately? Can you elaborate a bit?
Their American made stuff has always had a pretty good track record. It’s the Chinese crap you need to watch out for.
Pretty Bad Ass knife for the price. Gerber can make a tough knife when they want too. Liked seeing the test. 👍You do it the best!
this one is the best Gerber!!!
Amazing demonstration, very good knife!
it is fantastic!
It's time for Gerber to make a Strongarm chopper! :)
true!!!
I'd get it, someone should bring this up to gerber
yes!!!

Hey Joe, what is the better knife? This or the jaakaripuukko 140?
depends for what, both are cool, but for military i would take the strongarm
@joex I just want a well rounded survival knife. Shit hit the fan kind of thing.
