Bear Grylls Survival Knife Review

[@pallindsetmo3393]

I'd rather have a knife with a slight bend in it than a knife that has snapped in two

[@christopherhall5361]

a well forged and properly tempered blade should bend with use but not retain the bend, they probably used sub standard steel to cut costs, I'd rather spend $200 on a knife without any of that fancy shit, but will also never fail before the third handle replacement

[@Blue_Jackal]

Ironically I bought this knife and had some bad luck with it. The knife broke off while batoning about 1 inch down from the tip. It wasn't very bad abuse either. Steel quality is questionable, but meh. Get what you pay for. The ferro rod snapped on me while I was hiking - I fell on some rocks and it snapped off in the sheath. Given some better materials and maybe a good redesign, I'm sure it'd be a pretty good knife

[@christopherhall5361]

@GoodGuyRuska a full tang can still bend if it's not well tempered or you use shitty steel, all a full tang does is make the handle part of the blade so it doesn't break apart, it doesn't stop the tip from bending

Window World was installing new windows in my house and stole that knife and a few other fixed blades from my bedroom (they were literally tucked far back underneath my bed against the wall which sat at 2' high and 5' wide). My father was keeping an eye on them aswell and they were fingering through the jewelry box in my parent's bedroom and were even snooping through our garage (which has no windows).

Had a wonderful conversation with Rob Bayley, who designed the Bear Grylls S1 and S4 Survival Knife.

Not made in Portland, Oregon. Have both the S1/S4 models. A pure work of art by Rob Bayley of the U.K. and a good friend.

I got the non serrated version for over 8 years, maybe longer. Never let me down, and still easy to resharpen. Gone through a handful of fire sticks by now 😊 The sheath is still outstandingly strong and robusto, albeit a little worn and scratches all over, the knife still locks in place firmly, and keeps it in place firmly. Requires quite a bit of force to depart it from it's cozy rubbery home. Although it doesn't stay sharp for long (under normal bushcrafty conditions), it's an absolute workhorse that can take a beating over and over again.

[@happygolucky3450]

I've had this knife gotta be 8-10 years now. Have the strap to my canteen fed through the sheath so it's always close by when I'm out and about. When the serrations started wearing away I just ground them down so it looks a little bit like a tracker knife now. The edge disappears quicker than most but I keep it touched up with a smooth stone I found on my driveway, after a minute or so it's good to go again. All in all its a pretty good knife, certainly doesn't deserve all the hate it received when it first came out.

[@Thirty9Trails]

I had that knife from the day Gerber released it. Beat the living hell out of it and I have to say, it holds an edge and gets random jobs done. For $40 (now just called the Gerber Gear Ultimate Survival Knife), it’s tough to beat. I used to wear it inverted on my shoulder without the nylon part of the sheath which became the downfall. Was great for years but on a very hot hike, the plastic pressure clip softened…at some point traversing some tough spots, it must have come loose and dropped. Thinking back, when I realized it was gone, I should have circled back but I was low on water. I ordered the regular version from Gerber (mentioned above) and will see how long that one survives. Overall, great bang for your buck. I have yet to find a survival utility knife that comes with the extras for under $50 that compares. The snap-in ferro is actually quite handy.

In highschool I found one of these while walking down the street. Had it for years and I loved it. Was missing the ferro rod, so I never knew what that hole was for 😂

[@Waterbugjay]

Owned one for around10 years now. The sheathe after 10 years now has no retention, the blade has taken serious abuse but its still in one piece wothout a bend in my case. it can handle batoning and sawing with the serated section. The small sharpener on the back of the sheath has held up pretty well but its tough to use.

[@jchrizzy6995]

Have one one of these for like ten years, that thing takes some serious abuse. The most reliable knife I own for anything close to that price

[@jchrizzy6995]

I got it when i was like 8-10 so spent a lot of time stabbing it into things and wiggling it, never bent. Wonder if they changed the steel since then

[@JoshwaLaw]

Ahh, pretty cool video bro! Never seen anyone ACTUALLY stress test them for real haha

[@SavageMatty]

Literally the exact same as the Gerber knife I have. Very good in a pinch. Used it on a “camping” trip for a few things.

Did bear use this to enter his motor home after they yelled "CUT!"?

[@pandagabacho]

Seriously. Bear is the biggest joke in the survival scene

[@ArmchairDeity]

🎉 Someone who gets it! 😂

[@Dragon_Peterson]

Hey you leave Bear alone! He inspired me to start camping in the backyard

[@johndavis452]

I've had the foldable knife like that, I love it.

I like to see you drill down the landyard before your combat strike test 👍. Some of them knives were jumping pretty good!

I've worked a Canadian tire for about 7 year, and this was the only knife I have ever heard about breaking from multiplayer customers, Do not Buy

[@andr14317]

I have the other bear Grylls knife and while not a terrible knife it's not great. I haven't used it a lot and the blade is all chipped up so now I just use it as a toss around knife. Will not buy another one. There is a lot better knives around the same price point or cheaper that will do better

[@Nick-xc4fy]

If the build quality was there, it would be the perfect knife IMO

[@SkyBrigidRain]

Just get rid of the serrations!!!
