Best Survival Knife Under $100: Ka-Bar Turok

[@mutationdesign]

Named after a marine!? You mean it wasn't named after the dinosaur hunter!?

[@gideonstactical]

MutationDesign maybe the marine was named after the video game dinosaur hunter but it was originally designed for marine as a one custom blade.

[@mutationdesign]

Ah, ok I'm pickin' up what you're puttin' down. Sweet knife regardless of wherever it got it's name and awesome review.

[@danhold1]

MutationDesign , i thought the same thing

[@charlescollier7217]

Hahahahaha! The old comic books were exactly what came to mind for me!

[@danhold1]

Charles Collier , i read those for years

[@grootbillyclub3897]

I own one and it’s the best knife I ever owned. The sheath is perfect as well, very comfortable to wear.

[@sasquatch885]

I like seeing you cut thru that rubber floor mat material in your knife reviews. That stuff is tougher than toe fungus.

[@gideonstactical]

Son of Dad haha no problem

[@kevinharrison6572]

Just picked one up a few days ago, saw your video today (much to my relief you picked this one up for review). I'll be honest, I was on the fence buying this one and I'm not sure why but like you regret waiting on it. My first impressions is your dead on, the level quality of both the knife and sheath are almost un-conveyable. Great job on the video and look forward to taking it out for a walk for a few days.

[@cheekylad9045]

That sneaky stick stealing at 5:02 hahaha

[@e.r9111]

Maxime Therrien I didn't even notice that😂😂😂😂

[@chrisramirez1400]

Maxime Therrien just caught that hahah

[@thevideostump46239]

I know, LOL...

[@Whatdayawanttodowithyourlife]

I saw it too...scrolled to see if someone had commented. Good times!

[@abigcess]

believe it or not.. i kept this and returned Esee 6. great knife... feels amazing in my hands.

[@justintraupel9468]

I have an Esee 6 but am ordering the Turok this weekend. Glad to hear you really like it and compared it to the Esee 6

[@HappilyEverOutdoors]

I appreciate your thorough review, I just purchased mine due in large part to your input. I was not dissapointed.

[@mancooutwest44]

I absolutely love this design. Great job Jarosz Knives. It looks like there are some smart people at Ka-Bar that recognized how great this design is too. Love the saber grind and swedge, and really like how the swedge/clip taper has a nice subtle radius to the point. I like the tip profile better than my esee for drilling holes for hand drill sets. I'm a huge fisherman, as well and like the taper at tip allowing me to clean a fish easier. Yet it has plenty of strength to filed dress that deer, yet still has the stength and enough weight to make a quick sturdy pole to help aid me in packing out those elk in the back country. Absolutely the best retention sheath too, as I either always have my knife in horizontal or upside down carry positions for quick access. I like how it fits with a tek-lok as well. I bought two, one for me and my Son.

[@preparedmind101]

Linked this video in my new one. Just got the Choppa (Hate the name but I'm digging the knife), which has reignited my interest in Ka-Bar. I'll be grabbing one of these next.

[@Wildwestwrangler]

PREPAREDMIND101 hey chriss did you try the turok?

[@christophersmith588]

@@Wildwestwrangler he just made a video the other day, if you haven't checked it out, just FYI.

[@jamesreese1999]

The Turok appears to be a well-thought-out, well engineered knife--and at a great price. I plan to get one of these eventually. I was about to get one when I noticed the Benchmade Nimravus family and their blades of 154CM steel and lifetime warranty. I will still probably get a Turok, because it just looks like a great survival knife and is made by Ka-Bar. I think Ka-Bar needs to step up and offer a lifetime warranty--and it would not bother me if ALL the knife makers denied any warranty claims resulting from "batoning," which I think is the most ridiculous thing ever to put a knife through. It seems these "batoners" have forgotten what an axe is for. If I'm going deep into the woods, I will have an axe with me. This practice has been fostered by reviewers on KZbin, and in my over half-century plus of camping, hunting and fishing, I have never ever seen anyone baton a knife, much less done it myself. "Use the right tool" for the job was taught to me a long time ago. Batoning is like planning to start your camp fire with a bow and drill, when you could just as easily slip a Bic lighter into your pocket. Anyway, the Turok looks like a winner--and I am sure I will pick one up eventually--and might have already if Ka-Bar would substitute milled Micarta handles for those plastic ones.

[@phantomfang1927]

So glad you finally did a review on this blade, I have been holding off on it to see how it compared to some of the other knives out there.

[@gideonstactical]

Nathan Castro glad to help

[@thecleancaveman7770]

I ended up buying this knife with this video being a huge influence. First time I took it out of the box, I knew exactly what you meant by it feeling good in your hands. I don't knwo what it is, but it does feel like a great knife--almost like an extension of my hand. I haven't had the chance to "test it out" yet, but after over a year from posting this video, how is your turok holding up?

[@RJT80]

The Ultramid handle is likely part of it. Ka-bar also uses the same textured Ultramid on their large TDI self defense knives. I have the large Tanto TDI on my plate carrier. It's a perfect fighting knife. The first time I held that thing I also thought it felt unique and special. It's substantial in the hand and has really good grip for a polymer. They should use it on all their knives and ditch that slippery zytel but they want to sell micarta scales.

[@waltero3035]

This particular model reminds me of the Tops Dawn Warrior. Pretty interesting name for a knife as well. "Turok" means stab (or something similar) in the Filipino language. Another good review. Mabuhay my friend!

[@CedricAda]

I think its one of the coolest lookers, too.

[@legrandfromage9682]

Personally, I could do without the swedge

[@OggiDormo]

Take a look at Fallkniven Sk6. actually too expensive. But one of the most beautiful I found.

[@Wildwestwrangler]

Cedric & Ada Gear and Outdoors have you tried this knife

[@alaskaraftconnection-alask3397]

Ka-bar does a fine job with the 1095 CV steel!!! Right there you're getting value plus dependability, and they have the Q/C to reliably follow thru on a well-finished production (having the all important attention to details). To me, this is an up-scaled rendition of a tactical knife tossing in some field-knife hybridization w/ mainly the overall combinations of blade/handle/overall geometry. The blade appears to be a 'high-flats - saber-grind'. Looks like a swedged clip point, yet has spear inclinations. Handle is slightly bushcrafty, however more military in that the first finger would be relatively far back from blade and guarded. Sheath material is a good choice in my opinion for this knife. Food for thought or bit of historical perspectives... Handle material is similar composition to the old Remington Nylon 66 and the ol' indestructible hair combs... while sheath is very similar thermoplastic 'grouping' to the handle scales on an old Schrade Sharpfinger. Many knife offerings/companies might in other words do this the other way around as in a POM therm.-plastic for handle and reinforced therm-plastic sheath.

[@tintang7823]

Great video review about Ka-bar Turok, I have waited this video so badly. Thank you to Gideostactical for showing the true potential of this awesome blade 👍

[@rickgriffin3959]

I was a big fan of Turok Son of Stone back in the 60's, and it looks like a great knife, but I'll stick with my BK7, crummy sheath and all thank you!

[@adods9824]

Carroll custom knife scales. Elwood Nebraska. Does tan micarta replacement scales for these.. On ebay

[@willl7780]

turok is the best sub 100 knife i have...i have cheap to expensive stuff and this is a great knife

[@GaryHorn]

Glad they remembered lefties!

[@rainbowhiker]

Very impressed with this knife. It's on my, to-buy, list. Thanks for the the review.

[@IndianOutlaw1870]

This is a fine military deployment blade. Would excel in a combat role *and* utility role. I think of it as an improved Buck Nighthawk. Ultramid is a tough nylon.

[@nailbombroach]

Thanks for the vid, I bought this knife after reviewing your vids and love it. Can’t wait to take it out.

[@dionysis84]

I will be ordering a Turok after watching the review. Love my bk2 and bk9. This actually looks nicer. Also love my Utica UTK s-4 (my hometown) all great knives

[@guitarcleveland]

I sold my ESEE 6 also and bought this knife. I like this one way more. Especially the handle.

[@justintraupel9468]

I have an Esee 6 and have been thinking about grabbing one of these. What do you like better about it than the Esee?

[@guitarcleveland]

@@justintraupel9468 I don't know if it's worth owning both, but the main thing I like best is the handle and grip. I also like the sheath and the weight/balance better.

[@volvowagon70]

People keep calling it a survival knife, it is a tactical knife. The main difference between a tactical and survival knife is that a tactical knife is optimized for “battlefield” tasks like fighting, breaking glass, slicing through flat, flexible fabrics like webbing and sometimes cutting wire using its sheath. A strong tip is emphasized for piercing. A survival knife is optimized for tasks like shaving, chopping, batoning, and pounding, sometimes with a saw-tooth spine or compartment for survival supplies. A strong spine and edge are emphasized to survive the rigors of processing wood.

[@Elrond_Hubbard1]

I don't know Gideon, of all your reviews the ESEE 6 still seems to be the best budget blade when considering the quality to price ratio. I know it's over a hondo , but not much, and you get the assurance of quality in every blade. Recently picked one up for around 130 shipped, and I can't stop playing with it....it really is the perfect size and feel combined with assurance of quality materials. Love your vids ...keep it up!

[@joeframo3347]

You're a man after my own heart I agree with you 100% rock urbanomics on the handle you're absolutely right

[@catessc1]

No regrets...... should be a classic someday.

[@jeremyg371]

I'm liking this knife too, just picked up a bk 6 a few months ago. I'm replacing air conditioners in my condo this month for six hundred plus change a piece, so I'm kind of strapped but I did put it in my cart. Like you say for that price and after your review, it seems like a good all around knife. I really go to you for a lot of my advice. I'll pick it up in a few months if the price doesn't skyrocket, thx again and have a great day.

[@bRad-ns6iy]

I just picked on up today! I can't wait to try it out!

[@justintraupel9468]

I got some micarta scales made for mine, it feels great!

[@alexkellogg887]

Would you recommend this for an infantryman?

[@gideonstactical]

For sure

[@jessecampbell7432]

Yea it’ll open MRE’s just fine!

[@iamthelizardking6239]

Jesse Campbell exactly people get wrapped around the axel about knives like seriously you’re not John Rambo, like if it can cut rope, sharpen some sticks, pop a blister and do basic camp tasks that’s all you need, yet there are those who pay $300 for a damn knife I guess they expect it to cook dinner, give a handjob and shoot laser beams.

[@XMetalChefX]

buying this. Amazing profile, good sheath, not too big, not too bulky. wss gonna go bk7, but getting this instead... Plus i love N64 haha.

[@tomjjackson21]

Love your videos. You are definitely my go to guy when it comes to blade reviews. I'm in the market for a new pack and hatchet. Any reviews coming up on either in the near future?

[@gideonstactical]

Thomas Jackson what size pack are you looking for? I comes to hatchets I'm still just getting into them but I would take a look at hard-core hammers and they're super naturalist and survivalist

[@tomjjackson21]

gideonstactical Thanks for the reply. Medium to large pack. I bought the Kelty you reviewed and fell in love with the brand. I was thinking something like the Kelty Falcon 4000. Thanks I will.

[@gideonstactical]

Thomas Jackson awesome glad to hear it kelty is fantastic, but wait a week because next Thursday I have a video on the Mountainsmith apex 80 L pack. $180 and is by far the best backpack I've used in the size range to date.

[@danielmcalhany1624]

As far as a hatchet I would recommend the Drd Tatical Drd securis Tactical Tomahawk. It's a great lightweight tomahawk that performs like a hatchet for less weight.

[@thedudeabiding1582]

For hatchets, it depends on your price point. I love the Fiskars X7. They don't call it the backpacker's chainsaw for nothing. Fair warning, though: mine is an older moldel and the injection overmolding on the head means you can't do much pounding with it. That has never been a problem for me--and they may have fixed that flaw--but I wanted to throw it out there. Hard to beat a good hickory handle like one of the older Marbles or a Gransfors Bruks, just watch out for counterfeits.

[@jeremysteckman1704]

Man come on I just bought the harsey fighter now another knife the turok I now have to have

[@larrychrysler]

I just got my Turok. I purchased it much because of your video here, Aaron. I wasn't sure if I would have liked it, but was willing to give it a chance. And you know? I DO really like this knife. The ergo is awesome in the hand. The weight and handle just feels really good. A solid knife. I am really having a hard time as to which knife I like more...my new Turok or my old Becker BK7. Choices, choices. LOL. If it wasn't for the tapered spine on the Turok, the Turok would win hands down. I'm not that crazy about tapered spines (BK5, BK15, and this Turok). It just serves no purpose for me and tears up batons. But beside that....I really, really like this knife. I think if Jessie Jarosz or KaBar would come up with a new knife that is a Turok sans tapered spine, I'd certainly try to snatch one up. In that case, it would possibly beat out my BK7. Also, since I am a big fan for Micarta handles, I'd really like to see that be made available in the future for this knife, as well as for the Globetrotter and Choppa.

[@truth959]

i like the handle. looks really ergonomic and well designed. i don't like that super long swedge tho. BK7 is still the knife for me.

[@gideonstactical]

Augustus McRae I understand

[@Wildwestwrangler]

Bk10 for me for now

[@tigerpisces5506]

Turok is the Name of the American Indian comic book series and the video game series Turok Son of Stone. Is this better than a BK2 Companion knife that you praise?

[@johnmutton799]

I made G10 scales and put a nice swell to them and a small swell for the pinky! Now it feels more tactical. Going to make kydex sheath..

[@michaelfroelich5424]

i hope you tube stays away from survial an knife reviewer's, love this channel.

[@brianmccann666]

Sorry. KZbin considers Knifes, axes, saws, etc... Weapons. Everyone in the survival genre on KZbin is being Hit, demonetized last i saw... Knives, guns, outdoors stuff in general. Why, KZbin is run by liberal snowflakes.

[@michaelfroelich5424]

i have to agree.

[@christopher_martin]

love it but wish it didnt have that swedge

[@caseyfrigginscott]

The Steel Will Roamer knives are gonna compete really well with these.

[@junmcl]

Kabar just came out with the jarasz camp turok a couple of days ago, which is the same handle as this knife but with a 8 inch blade.

[@guitarcleveland]

I just bought this knife from your review. It's awesome.

[@michaelcanning2815]

great blade/sheath combo for a great price. added to the wish list. Thank you for the review

[@24Mossberg]

Okay, okay, okay...I just purchased a knife...now, I have to purchase this one and it’s because of your review and the great comments below. Now, if my wife jumps me when the knife hits the door, it’s your fault. I’ve been in enough trouble lately.

[@rabidrabbit8645]

Yes, yes... The pronounciation. It's Polish surname, and goes more like: Yarosh Fun fact, Jarosz in Polish means vegetarian. Back to the subject, knive is simply amazing. I love this piece of a beast.

[@EarlyMist]

I've ordered this and the Choppa and watched this video four times and I only just noticed your doggy stealing a piece of batonned wood at 5:00 😀

[@MTMILITIAMAN7.62]

It is refreshing to see a knife manufacture put a functional sheath with their knife. I am tired of having to resign excellent knives to the foot locker because they are rendered useless by the POS nylon that the manufacture sent them with. For example, the OKC RD6 would be my favorite knife if I can comfortably carry it, but the crap nylon they sent it with essentially turns it into a paperweight. Too bad I didn't see this earlier. I just replaced the RD6 with a Cold Steel SRK in SK-5 specifically because the Cold Steel SecureEx sheath is at least functional compared to the Mickey Mouse contraptions most knife manufactures are sending with their knives.

[@michealantisdel5912]

TheTurok reminds me of the Schrade schf 38. Looks like a better match than the other three knives. Oranges and apples comparisons of odd balls.

[@Adventurer-1971]

Great blade. I got one when it came out.

[@bridonr.552]

Love the way you do your reviews. Keep it up.

[@FixedBladesPlus]

Hi Aaron. If you could only own either an ESEE-6 or a Ka-Bar Jarosz Turok, which would you choose?

[@gideonstactical]

Esee 6

[@deanoboland]

Great work on your video m8

[@RawdTheFormerVirgin]

Got this one. It’s my favorite.

[@Standswithabeer]

same old, same old. As usual, Kabar makes a great knife --then adds one feature that kills it for me. This knife and its sheathing is well thought-out & terrific. Then there is that stupid 4 inch (!) swedge. bah. If it is not something like that, it is a stairway to heaven thumb ramp or some such thing.

[@mattklapman]

I completely agree since the handle is designed more for bushcraft than for combat (no finger protection). I wonder if it sells better with the swedge because of "looks." I've been hoping Gerber offers a 6" bladed Strongarm.

[@psionicevasion]

Matt Klapman finger protection from what?

[@mattklapman]

1. protection from fingers sliding onto the blade when stabbing, and 2. protection from an object sliding down the blade onto fingers when stabbing

[@Dan-sq5cv]

Yes that swedge UGH!!

[@IndianOutlaw1870]

Jesse wrote that he designed the knife to be a combat knife that could also be used for bushcraft. Hence the swedge. I carry this knife for self defense while hiking - not for bushcraft - and so the swedge is something I want.

[@livingsurvival]

I passed on those Utica knives. Might have to check out that Turok! Thanks for the video.

[@gideonstactical]

Living Survival ya man, I think you would like it!

[@MysterPynk]

Since it's a "survival" knife, I think I'd long for a pommel and and still curious to know if it throws a spark. Looks like a good sheath system, and it'd be nice - for once - not to go custom kydex, but I dunno. Kinda ugly. I'd have to try one before I plunk the dough down. love your reviews though and your high praise counts for sumthin'.

[@gideonstactical]

MysterPynk thanks, it does not through sparks. It is very good for the money

[@hivemind5137]

MysterPynk Throw sparks with the edge or grind the spine that is closer to the handle scales to be sharper. That is what I did.

[@MrSIXGUNZ]

great looking knife and works great!!

[@joserenteria77]

I put a tek lok on mine. It fits great.

[@BigBrownDad]

Big thanks. I bought it today.

[@gideonstactical]

BigBrownDad awesome!

[@hivemind5137]

BigBrownDad I bought it last year after having tried alot of larger knives. The sheath sold me.

[@PerceptionVsReality333]

I'll still stick to the OKC SP1 knife - the newer model a with light brown handle.

[@user-gk6vw7ck8z]

I need a good knife that can cut wood, food/fish/game, and is "waterproof" for kayaking and camping, gotta be able to survive the weather out in texas too, haven't finished watching the video yet but I was looking at this knife, any opinions/recommendations?? 😂

[@nandorweiss374]

What about a Mora Garberg? Relatively cheap, full tang, stainless steel, scandi Grind and many more reasons for this beast.

[@christopher_martin]

personally i dont like a woods knife with a swedge

[@williamrowell3053]

Great knife, well made, but I found the handles were slippery when wet. I stippled the scales on mine and solved the problem. It has a much better grip once I made this mod. I wish the scales were made of rubber, or a rough micarta. Your video was well done.

[@jacobrogers622]

I still say save your money just a little longer and get the esee 6

[@Elrond_Hubbard1]

It really is the perfect blend of price/quality and feel.

[@kevinharrison6572]

Not sure if you keep up with some of these old vids but just in case. As I posted a couple months ago I bought the Turok and used it throughout the summer paired with a hatchet, loved it. Winters coming, I am in northern Ontario and generally I like to take the BK2 but am considering the Turok. Have you had this in cold weather or know of anyone? Concerned about sheath action stiffness mostly with that retention clip. Your enthusiasm for this knife and my summer are probably the only two reasons why I'm considering this. LOL Thanks again man, I know it's been awhile but I'm still watching.

[@maximus512]

Comparing to this the KaBar USMC is a toy. The Turok is a full tang solid beast. It should be standard in the US Army.

[@mexicansuperman123]

Now that's a knife. Now I'm definitely probably gonna pick this up. Was probably going to get the Schrade SCHF3N or 9N. But I'd rather spend a little more cop this one.

[@dkompolt1234]

This and its little brother, the Globetrotter, look just excellent. Unfortunately the Turok is too big for me and the Globetrotter is too small. If Jesse designed a 4-3/4" fixed blade with a sheath like the Turok's, he would have my money in a heartbeat.

[@gideonstactical]

Daniel Kompolt nice

[@DienekesShade]

Great knife. I really do like it. The only thing that keeps me from buying it is that cheap handle material. Would grab in right away if it was micarta 😔

Hi Aaron, you definitely my favorite go to guy for knife and outdoor gadgets. I'd like to see a video on how it compares one on one with the Esee6...I'm in the market for a knife and I'm caught between the Kabar Jarozs Turok and the Esee6. Thanks

[@tugawolfoutdoor]

Great review and great knife 😉👍🇵🇹🇺🇸😎💪

[@ottergt]

So glad to see this review! It seems to have been flying under everyone's radar for the past year since it was introduced, and it truly is a great knife. I'm sure your review will help garner more attention for this blade, and more handle options will become available (as you mentioned). Even just color options in the same material from Ka-Bar would be great (orange and green would be great choices), but G10 and Micarta would be AWESOME. Just take my money now. Any plans to review the Globetrotter? (And Jesse...if you're watching...how 'bout getting Ka-Bar to release a production version of your Turok-Mid size!!!)

[@JaroszKnives]

Do you think that the Esee nylon pouch would on the face of that knife?

[@elijahclark6093]

Aaron, hey brother. I'm on the hunt for a new backpacking/survival/camp knife and I've narrowed it down to a couple choices. The condor crotalus, the turok and humdinger. I know they've each got their pros and cons but if you had to pick one, which one would you take. I'm never more than a few miles from home and always have a chopping tool. So I don't need it for any heavy chopping Thanks for taking the time to read this and get back to me. I appreciate it. And love your videos.

[@357bullfrog2]

I have a request. I've been a believer in the buck 119 as a do all all purpose blade till lately I've had some issues with mine. I'd like to see a head to head shootout of the buck 119 and the turok if you could please.

[@saucemaster2]

How does this knife throw sparks of a ferro rod?

[@joshuawong8882]

Which knife is better kabar turok vs. ontario sp1?

[@semco72057]

The knife sounds great and I may have to look them up online and see about ordering one and I have the BK-2 which I love but don't want to use it regularly as I want it to last a lifetime like my others.

[@shcmoly]

I like everything but the swedge. Same steel, better grip & sheath than the Beckers. Kabar needs to upgrade them all now...

[@razvancarstea4567]

There is debate about the Cold Steel's Secure Ex sheets that they have some fiber glass composite that actualy dulls the knife.. does this knife's sheet have the same problem?

[@WayneTheSeine]

Man... I wished they made this exact same knife without the swedge. Is it irony the definition of swedge is " To depart; depart without paying; return nothing for value received"

[@barrybueler3356]

Like it guessing u can replace those handles with some micarta that’s what I would want like the bk2✌️

[@Treasure_Seeker89]

The Son of Stone would be proud..

[@nathanmaynard131]

Can't decide between this, or the OKC TAK-1. Opinions? Will be doing a fair amount of chopping and batoning

[@Michaelisgreek]

As an overall survival knife, price point and sheath aside, how does this compare to the Esee 6?

[@subroc4]

Great review! I've been really curious about the Ka-Bar Jarosz knives and there aren't many reviews on them out. Can you check out the Choppa next? I'm currently tossing up between that and the BK9.

[@HvinnyTheViking]

love the vids. keep em coming, but I have to ask, after watching lots of different larger knife reviews and field use, does anyone use gloves while using a large knife? I was always taught gloves, lanyard and safety glasses were a must for anyone doing any sort of serious knife work. not busting on you, but curious as to your thoughts. thanks

[@Arto257]

Those are only a "must" when the OSHA inspector is around

[@highlander200268]

i like this but would also have added some schrade 1095 models

[@Droowtube]

Excellent review. In your opinion, can the flat bottoms of the the handles of the BK-10 or BK-22 serve a good purpose? From a utilitarian standpoint, it would seem that you could do some light hammering with them, etc. Any thoughts? Thanks!
