This knife was designed by José Sabater... A f....ng genious!!! He has created a lot of nice Spanish knifes and Joker is a great manufacturer from Albacete. Bueno, bonito y barato! Cream!! 🇪🇸

[@denisdegamon8224]

I now have four Joker knives; the Camparo, Nesmuk. Lynx and now the 5" Nomad. I am very impressed with the blades quality, sharpness, and price. Few if any can come close to the durability, fit & finish and value of their knives and I have an extensive collection of good manufacturers blades as well as custom hand made blades by master knife makerd. Get one, you won't be disappointed.

[@batteredwarrior]

You guys are my favourite knife community KZbinrs! Genius videos...keep it up! I have the original Joker Nomad, and want the 6.5 too. Joker make amazing knives and are just spectacular value for money.

[@jordy703]

As a half Spanish guy born in the Netherlands I'm am very proud. I gave my father this knife and i also was amazed about it. All Joker knives are great I owned some of them when they were available at Amazon.

Great review guys. It looks like a good camp knife for sure. Funny how some companies keep upping their game and others just decline. Keep up the good work.

Got a Joker Nordico 2 years ago and didn't regret it. Awesome scandi grind and built quality from this company is absolutely great! And you are right Mikkie, not only are they hand grinding their knives, but they're all hand made.

I have one of these. It really is a great knife at a great price. Joker in general makes great knives. I have 4 of them.

Joker definitely makes fire knives. I just got the chance to test one of these Nomad 6.5’s! Beast mode knife for sure.👌

[@canucklehead0]

Hello Lads!!,...It's been a while. Have to say I'm a big Fan of Joker Knives and the way they heat treat and sharpen their blades. I've had a Joker Nomad with the Bohler 695 steel blade for a few years now and it has never failed to do a task I have asked of it. I'm not an abuser of my knives but I do ask them to do the jobs they claim to do. For instance long before we even spoke about the make up of steels for knives we had Stainless and High Carbon Steel or a combination of the two. I have owned a Grohmann Military handled #3 since I was in my early 20's (I'm now 55yrs old) and it has done it's job many times with no complaints. It's job is to break down and skin large game that we have shot for meat. I'll have to look for this larger version of the Nomad, seeing as it worked so admirably for you two. Cheers from Canada, DBK Lads!! Mikkie, do The Wodan Boys have any albums out? I'm an old Punk Rocker from the late 70's and early 80's from about age 13 on and I find myself really enjoying your sound!! I'd love to pick up a CD or an Album of your songs!! - Dave

[@calimeroBiH]

Great Video and great knife. Btw I haven't watched you for a long time, Mickey you got some sick gains, your arms are crazy. Keep going strong 💪

Not forgetting the fact you love the knives you test sometimes too destructive joy😂 you wouldn’t stop smiling for the rest of the week. Long may you two continue or I will come over and feed you my socks ( my boot socks! ) hahaha much love lads have a excellent week 🫵😘👍

Great video; and Joker; I know the brand, it's spanish, and often forgotten in the low-quality knives, but obviously it deserves a whole lot better. I gotta look into them some more.

That fire method was pretty cool and never seen it before, another good card for the survival deck, Thanks Fellas 😎

thumbs up for showing the rudiger roll fire making method

[@jessechristensen1074]

Aside from some roadside tools, the most important thing I keep in my car is a roll of toilet paper. I also have a fire steel. Anyway, 10/10 would recommend keeping toilet paper in your car. Also a must have for fishing trips. It saved the day for a few people now.

[@bradfarrahgerwing154]

Large package of baby wipes in the trunk beats TP every time....better hygiene and useful for cleaning faces, hands, bodies, upholstery AND a 1/4roll of paper towel for drying firelighting etc

[@robertdouglas4293]

That happened to friend of ours while fishing in two boats, he had to back one out on a tiny Island with no trees, with just an oily rag from the boat, he could have really used your advice, lol.

[@bobafettuccine3541]

That's a great deal for a Bushcraft knife. Great job on the review. Hope to see you guys do some cooking again. 🇺🇸

[@edgblades]

Another great vid & find. You guys rock!

[@Dynotop1a]

I’ve started a fire with a red plastic cup, some pine needles, and some ashes in a fire pit. Basically, I stuffed the cup with needles and rubbed the cup into the ashes of the fire pit to create friction (like you’re scooping the ashes into the cup over and over). I remember that it caught fire surprisingly fast. I only did it once when I was bored a long time ago. I don’t think the ashes can be too old for this to work. Might have just been a fluke, honestly, because I was just a little kid playing with fire.

[@mikemullins8020]

Thanks for another informative video!

Joker not joking around.

[@KB3UKTKB3ULN]

Keep me in mind for the Joker 6.5. I absolutely love the first joker Nomad smaller version. Would love to win the 6.5 to add to my collection.

Is the nomad also a good chopper?

[@andreyantipow]

Yes, I think this Joker Nomad 6.5 one is the best survival knife. It's a pity that steel is not the one of the best, I wanna see this knife in CPM 3V or similar premium steel

[@nicosmackcam2539]

[@jacobcyr8432]

Had a Chance to pick up Demko free Reign in the limited run Magna Cut steel. was 189 when i got it and was worried about the rubber handle before my purchase. But I liked the overall look with the through tang, and to my surprise over a year later the rubber still looks brand new.

[@martiventuragarcia5659]

Great video as always! I like this knife! One question, what do you think about BECUT steel. There is not much info out there. Could be interesting to test it in the Fox core fixed knife.

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

I think I only have one knife in it and havent thoroughly tested it. It's not a high end steel for sure

[@johnhighma4905]

Boys, you are nearly as good as the Netherlands Oranjes Soccer team! 😂I love your channel! Funny, creative and honest! Keep on going this way please.

[@Waldschrat22]

I have a Joker Knife too....yeah the Handle ist great for Bushcraft Tasks ( Mine is the Joker Nordico with O2 Steel) and it never dissapoint me in all Carving Work but...when iwas Batoning with it, the Handle was going to lose....OK, a little bit of 2k Klever, and Screws instead of rivet...and now it works like a Horse! Do you know the Fox Core Fixed Blade with Becut Steel? I think, this Knife is under the Radar!

[@eyeofthetiger4184]

G'day Guys, I've had the 5 incher for some time now, not one thing is wrong with it and everything is right about it. I'd go as far as to say on par with my Bravo 1.5 in S35, ....... but roughly half the price. Yes I prefer S30/35, but N690 and 695 are very underrated IMO. Cheers Duke.

[@MichaelBrown-di6ks]

Love me some big boy choppers!! Nice !

[@imgadgetmanjim]

Oak is good as firewood and the acorns can be eaten or used to attract deer ie food for you😮. A friend had a garden that he couldn’t get anything from because deer ate everything. I told him it still could provide food in the form of meat. Edit: if you want to make a fire by fire rolling I recommend David West channel. He makes it look so easy.

[@chloehennessey6813]

I stopped buying them for about three months and set aside the money each pay day. I finally got in my Miller Bros M-21 with fire starter, diamond stone on the Kydex/leather sheath. This knife is a freaking beast. I have no reason to buy another bushcraft knife now lol

[@noyzmunky]

Cheers. This one's getting bought.

[@krisshh1587]

Definetly should try in a video one of the lt.wrights knives, genesis would be awesome in 3v!

[@lymedog3176]

Guys, guys…When are you going to do a video on the JeoTec series of bushcraft knives… micarta handles, n690 steel and probably the best leather sheath available for a knife.. all at between $99 to $139 us, depending on the model number!

[@latergator3367]

We all knew you guys were professional rollers. Now you proved it !

[@Naumets1]

I just bought 3 joker knives they are extremely well made for the price you pay for em.

[@alainbelso]

I was really interested in the Nomad. I almost bought it but instead, I went with the Joker Ember with micarta and scandi grind. I unfortunately have a budget to live by. After seeing this video, I feel like I should have blown my budget. Haha! Maarten, Mikkie, thank you for not shooting and destroying this knife. You have spared me from another heart ache this week.😅😅😅😅

[@scottlanghorst1483]

I was hoping they wouldn't shoot it, to.😮

[@JustinCase-em6ql]

I have both knives. There is no loss settling for the Ember, except for a shorter blade. The Ember can pretty much do anything the larger Nomad can, and the 14c28n steel is tougher than n695. The Ember is easier to sharpen, too. The Ember is better in the bush/woodcraft department, the Joker better in the hunting, skinning, food prep department.

[@alainbelso]

@@JustinCase-em6ql Cool! The only thing I don't like about the Ember is that I find the scandi grind angle too steep. I would have preferred the grind would have started 1/2 way along the edge as opposed to 1/4. It would have been just as strong but a little bit more slicy. I could have reground it but I decided to keep the factory grind and be able to compare it to other knives.

[@fabcraft5366]

@@JustinCase-em6ql Non, le Nomad est 6,5, pas comparable

[@JustinCase-em6ql]

The only thing the Ember does not excel at is food prep, because of that thick scandi grind.

Joker are good knives? Cool to know. About 20 years ago I bought a double-edged dagger looking knife from them, thinking it was just a cool looking wall hanger, but it was heavy and well made.
