Yeah the design itself is so iconic and classic I would want one of those mtech 151 just to put in my collection

I have the original Trailmaster in Carbon V and it has the convex grind. It cuts amazingly. You are wrong about the shape of the knife being identical. The original Trailmaster has a much thicker clip point and the 5/16" stock goes out further towards the tip before the distal taper begins.

It's all about perspective and use. The chipping on VG1 is almost always caused by rock, sand, dirt,bone etc. It's always someone over swinging and contacting hard media. The 3v won't chip usually because of this but will roll.

I agree

I’ve never owned a Trailmaster but I know it’s a beast from all the reviews and testing ppl have done. It’s 3V so you know it’s super badass! 🔥🔪🤘

The convex grind is why I like fallknivens. But I have the f1 and a1 in vg 10 and the s1 in vg10w. But anyways one day I did a beater test outside on a dry deer shoulder bone the dog drug in and all the fallknivens chipped besides the a1. My buck 119 chipped bad. My bark river bravo 1lt in cruwear chipped. A puma bowie in 440c did not chip. A mora garberg stainless chipped bad. But surprisedly the a1 did great. But it is a bit thick behind the edge but no worse then the garberg is.

How about a side by side with the trailmasters and the SP5. I have a marbles trail maker blade. It is the knife the SP5 is modeled after. I just need to make a handle and sharpen it. Old American made marbles had convex grinds. I’m really wondering how the 3v holds up. Haven’t had a good experience myself. It’s great you got one. Every place I’ve looked they were sold out. Kinda wish I got the recon when midway had a sale they were $200. Seems nowadays everything is crazy priced. I love my 151s I have 2 also really I don’t see a downside to them. To bad they stopped making them.

I’ll definitely do a side by side. And yes. The 151 is a awesome knife. Even compared to the 3 trailmasters lol

Don't forget to add the Fallkniven Modern Bowie as another clone of the Good ol Trail Master! I am debating on getting one, but I have so many that I don't have the time to test. Just love a big knife in convex, and the San Mai lll VG1 is too brittle. I hamy recon Tanto and SRK in San Mai VG10 which are decent but I prefer my CPM-3V versions.

3v all the way lol. A convex 3v would be great

@@peterbiltknifeguy oh I always have really enjoyed it I remember when I was excited when you bought that Dorman Drawer assortment because when I was young an working my family owned a business ALBECO FASTENER an I use to go to shops and set up and fill those style drawer an large bolt bins. But I’m not sure if I ever told you Tristan knows but I have Bipolar disorder and PTSD an schizophrenia an depression so I’ve been told by my psychiatrist to not watch regular television because lots of things trigger my PTSD so KZbin has been my only entertainment so I’ve selected about 25 different KZbin channels to watch an yours has always been extremely entertaining extremely helpful an you have always been so respectful polite honest and just a huge joy to watch so for me to post a comment it’s just a tiny bit of the appreciation you deserve. I’m extremely grateful to you and I’m blessed to have you buddy and your videos to help make my days brighter and give me positive videos to watch and it’s something I’ve truly enjoyed since1976 when I was 7 years old. So THANK YOU an GOD BLESS YOU AN YOUR FAMILY AN GOD BLESS AN PETS 🫶🏽🇺🇸🫶🏽🇺🇸👍⬆️🙏✝️☮️🐕🐈👊🏽🤜🏽🤛🏼🫡🤝⚔️🗡️🔪🫶🏽🇺🇸✝️👍⬆️
