CRKT... MY FAVORITE.

i'm Inidian so i'll happily tell the Pakistani where they can shove their bowies. That said, i like the review.

Gerber Patriot any one knows?

I like the vogar and the Spartan and few more the Kris blade

Lol knife fanatics 😊

I own this. There's better, but for under 200.00 us it's great. I carry it most days. Look up cheast rigs

I use my Alice for bushcraft

I got my Alice pack from my son who was a marine in Afghanistan 😊

I love my large Alice pack

I enjoyed your video until you used the word "woke." Semper fi

as a former british soldier, ive only carried 2 knives into combat, my grandfathers FS from ww2 and a victorinox huntsman i stole from a priest when i was 11

Thanks for Sharing

Its Achilles heel is the total lack of compression straps. If it's not packed out to the max and you've got small but heavy items in there it flops around way too much.

Excellent carry mate. Cheers from Australia.

That folder is an Applegate-Fairairn - Rex Applegate was a well-known (OSS I believe) American knife fighter, and Capt Fairbairn was in the Shangai police in the 1930s ans developed a unique knife-fighting style which he taught to the British Special Operations Executive, among others. Knives I carried in the service included: a couple of Chris Reeves hollow-handled knives (sadly now no longer made); a couple of different Ek knives; USMC Kabar (and like you also the D2 version); the Cold Steel copy of the Randall No 1; and eventually when I could afford it, an actual Randall No1.

You forgot to show the spare bulb under the spring on the flashlight..

I have and love my Alice pack large and the radio pouch works well for a water bladder

I'll take that challenge, I live in south Florida. The Items I would take are a window A/C unit with a Honda Generator. Next would be a BK 9 with a multitool. Next would be a bottle of Capt. Morgan rum and a 2 ltr. of coke. Defiantly a bottle of aspirin for the hang over. Some standard Band Aids. I would have a seamstress sew a 24x64 inch pouch on my pants. There ya go. LOL Great vid I enjoyed it a lot.

I apoligise if this has already been stated. I would also consider an extension to your pistol belt as well. Very handy and I love this set up.

Those are some impressive knives you got in your collection

I still and always have my coldsteel vaquero xl. I also carry a watchman we222 around my neck. Sometimes I carry SRK-C with a loop inside the waist. I've been studying FMA and small circle jujitsu for the last 10years.

The K-bar has been around for centuries???? 😂😂😂😂😂

Can anyone suggest a forum where the community can help me identify a knife my father left me? He was a Huey pilot in Vietnam and brought a knife back. He showed it to me once when I was a teen and said that it was made from a jeep or truck spring. I have searched a bit and find nothing similar - it is much beefier than any fighting or pilot's knife and came with a solidly made leather sheath. Thanks for any suggestions.

Thank You for sharing! Awesome blades

Best Video i have seen! ❤ thank you for good Pictures. Explained in Best way! Wish you a good Wknd.

hey john, what is the 3 most important things to think about when choosing a knife for a rig

The CRKT M16 folders are excellent budget choices. I carried the 4 inch tanto for the longest time before I got my SR-1

They did make the ILBE in desert MARPAT but they are a lot harder to find now because they didn’t make very many of them

Although it is no longer issued or officially authorized, some Marines still use an Alice pack. I had a large Alice pack custom made in coyote brown nylon over in Korea while I was stationed there to take the place of my FILBE. Basically a lot depends on your MOS and more importantly your rank. As an E8, I never had anyone complain that I still used an Alice ruck. One thing that I like about the Alice that no modern pack does is the way the frame sits off your back, it allows room to wear a hydration bladder on your back while wearing the Alice. Also with the addition of a cargo shelf and a pair of lashing straps, the Alice frame makes easy work of carrying Jerry cans or ammo cans. The newer modern packs just can’t do that.

Boker Epic, Tops California Cobra, Compliance Knives DCK (double edge), T.Kell 007, S&W Chokehold, Spyderco Jumpmaster, and Cold Steel Kobun (full serrated) would be my top picks. All of them are easily concealable self defense fixed blades that will definitely ruin an attacker's day.

I WANT TO SEE SOMEONE ELSE WEARING IT I CANT TELL IF THE BACK SAG IS NORMAL OR NOT AND I DONT TRUST THAT FAT KID WHO REVIEWED IT. is there a way I could get ahold of you and ask questions about the rig?

Nice, bro. Most thorough one on this pack so far. Lol, I was cutting straps while watching.

I wish I could find the assault pack to complete my kit with. I still have my Molle II main pack as I received a second that never got added to my inventory sheet, but I had to turn my assault pack back in. I see them on eBay from time to time but they are missing the stiffener and foam pad that should be in them.

Wow, 1700 cubic feet of room in that assault pack? I can almost fit half of my Two story house in there then, lol

love your collection of knives, my preference is a high carbon steel or high carbon stainless steel knife and not so pretty, I was told, a good knife will rust, and carbon steel will hold an edge better then stainless, after I use mine, I clean it and lightly oil it!

Still one of the best.

You have a lot of beautiful knives.

Great video. We replaced all of our alice clips with zip ties

That is the most awesome knife in the world!

"You can get them from all different types of makers (now)". I beg to disagree. Cold Steel is still the only company that makes large folding knives, unless you consider a 4" blade large.

Esee 7 huh never heard of it I know what a rat 7 is

Whats better lc 1 or lc 2

I just grabbed one with frame in brand new condition for 40$ on marketplace. I couldnt drive there fast enough. Been wanting one for a few years but people wanting over 200 for used in good condition on ebay.

Dude's carried more knives in combat than Chesty Puller.

last one is pakistan is best for fighting others too small

Great journey through time with the knives used by combat veterans from before, up to my own time in the military. Thank you. Though it might not change your mind about them, you might want to look up the facts about that situation with Benchmade. This coming from someone who's not a fan of theirs whatsoever, but I'm very intentional with basing my dislike on pure fact rather than multiple level hearsay about a situation that had nothing to do with their political leanings, nor their state. I'll leave the searching for the facts up to you rather than waste my time defending a company within a specific situation, that i don't care for at all for other reasons anyway. I'm always concerned with the facts first, even if your opinion about the situation stays the same.
