Beautiful High Value Fixed Blade: Hard Using the JEOTEC

I found this cool "Ponderosa" location while scouting for such on my KTM 1190. Here we have lots of standing dead wood to work on.
Then we get busy what turns out to be a surprisingly competent fixed blade: The JeoTac, made in Spain. It presents like a very high quality knife costing way more than its humble pricing. Just check out that sheath for instance.
Then I institute what might be a new way to infield test these knives: ratings on splitting, battening, chopping, shaving/planing, food/meat prep, and even throwing (!). No this 6.7" Bushcraft No37 is meant as a camp knife so some tasks might be a reach.
But all in all, Sean and I come away very impressed with its edge holding (Mova 58 steel), toughness, and throwing capabilities (wth). It is recommended.

Ponderosa, any Bonanza reference gets a double owl on the shed thumbs up

Nutn, dude, Sir, thank you for the years of content, serving us who breathe the outdoors and preparedness. Will definitely follow you off this platform for your content and perspective. Things are just getting wild, so many to-dos. Thank you, Nutn!

[@booishoois309]

Love the knife testing!

[@Todd_S]

That's a good looking clip point blade. I like it.

[@scammajamma]

Sup Nutn? Keep em coming.

I'm still rocking my Ontario Marine Raider Bowie from whenever that video dropped like a decade ago. I'm pretty sure it's still the leader for value, and its still processing wood and have fallen quite a few 4-8" tree limbs. However this Jeo-Tec is nice looking.

[@billystevens2911]

I loved the knife throwing!!!!😂

[@billystevens2911]

Can’t be scared to have fun with your tool!!!

[@MarktheMartian]

very inspirational deal guys! I'll share with you my next in field vid!

[@mmiller73]

Nutn, check out Joker knives. They are made in Spain also and I think they are made by the same parent company as JeoTec. They use higher quality steels like 14c28n and K720.

This is the knife reviewer OG

[@tmutant]

Have you checked out Joker Knives? Also made in Spain and very high quality. This Jeo Tac looks very good.

[@DisisSnake]

Nutn do a collab with Dutch Bush Craft Knives

🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@steelhorses2004]

Very good looking knife for that price point! Did miss the competitive options?

[@MrSottobanco]

How did you even come across Jeo Tec?

[@pikap8649]

I was looking several years ago for a knife on Amazon and this knife was in the recommended. So, Amazon. lol

[@jamieluvsknives3912]

When I just got into knives I bought a celtibero fixed blade in mova steel it was kinda soft it’s still on Amazon for like 90 dollars it looks like the same knife as the one your showing

[@Sheppard2030]

Yeah, but how well does it "cut the cheese"?

[@BAD_CONSUMER]

can't believe dude took a versys out there. They tried to make them look dual sporty with the longer suspension travel, but its too damn heavy, and the suspension just sucks (one tube spring, one tube shock, oversprung, underdamped, no radial brakes).

[@user-wd4ge2zh2c]

Looks a bit thick for my preferences.

[@user-wd4ge2zh2c]

It's a bushcraft knife.

[@calholli]

I'm sure it's a decent knife.. but these prices are completely out of hand; I'm not gonna pretend that it's normal or acceptable for me personally, when you can just get a strip of your favorite super steel and grind it into whatever shape you want and save a ton. What happened to self reliance and making our own stuff? At least that's where my heads at these days

[@richardhenry1969]

Im glad to hear someone else say what I've been saying. These knife companies are beyond ridiculous with their marketing and brand pricing.

[@calholli]

@@richardhenry1969 Yeah.. I bought some paramilitary 2 clones for ten buckz each... I should have grabbed 20 of them because they are awesome.. and I can't find them now. I'm sure it's lower grade steel, like D2 or something around there.. but it still works great and I just learned how to sharpen them well.
