That’s a fine looking knife, they are gooood, congratulations on the great design. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@DonnieBAllDay]

thanks bro

[@beckystiles1754]

It’s a beautiful blade. I probably wouldn’t buy this particular one but you know I would love to buy the Preacher, the Little big man, and that camp knife for sure 😁 nice job once again. I haven’t owned a hand forged knife but I have seen blades being hand forged and the process is totally different and the look is totally different. I wouldn’t expect them to perform the same right out of the box. I’d assume the hand forged would be a more durable knife though. I’m assuming they aren’t for everyone. But I think they are cool because of the looks for one, and the detailed hard work that goes into it. Pride.you’re like a kid on Christmas morning. Glad you’re enjoying it😁

[@DonnieBAllDay]

There's nothing better than hand forged working art.

[@Katana-Karl]

Great design! Looks like fit and finish is really good on this one too. Bonus!

[@DonnieBAllDay]

Better than I thought

Hi, I was wondering which would be your preferred knife to defend against a wild animal or mad dog attack?

[@DonnieBAllDay]

dbad OEF Defender

[@ronalddunne3413]

Interesting blade, not my preferred cuppa tea as a survival/do anything blade, good review. Gimme a khuk any day tho... KH sure has a wide selection of sturdy blades. That choming can make a big difference in the bush, especially if it rains a lot. My KaBar USMC @1970 knife was chromed too, and the only KaBar I've EVER seen that was chromed. It was good with not rusting, maybe KaBar did a small run of these for VN duty(?) Wish I'd a kept it... Anyway... Looking at a couple of their knives for "After Christmas". A Merry Christmas and a happy and fruitful New Year to you and yours! Dogs, too!

[@DonnieBAllDay]

Yeah this one is designed as a fighter/chopper. Great for both, but definitely not designed as a survival blade. Haha! They do make some good ones.

No. The blade is massive. It never comes into play

Hi, Donnie Just wondering if you have to pick a knife for setting a fire when camping, which one would you pick, this one, preacher or any other better pick? Thanks!

[@DonnieBAllDay]

For camping I prefer my dbad Camp Master

[@Luia8617]

Donnie B All Day thanks for your suggestion, I just check the camp master review, and is the camp master good at chopping about 10 cm diameter wood vertically (not batoning), because the blade length might not be long enough for a good swing?

[@DonnieBAllDay]

@@Luia8617 its a 6" blade. For heavy chopping and camp use, the dbad Preacher might be what you're looking for

[@Luia8617]

Donnie B All Day tank you, I might get a camp master and a preacher for different camping style, thanks again!

Hi there Dbad, today is a good day! I'm gonna go home from work soon, a parcel arrived for me today, soo I am excited to get home to see it, it's from your friends at the khukuri house, Ohhh yeeeh, I got a preacher waiting for me at home. I asked you about the 1917 frontier Bowie awhile ago, I wanted one, but they have been out of stock for about a year, so I ordered a preacher. I'll let you know what I think of it.

12 inch blade with 5.5 or 15 inch blade with 6.5 inch handle. Can this thing stab? I’m guessing you prefer bowies over machetes, I don’t own a machete so I kind of feel I should have at least one… especially a dbad design.

[@DonnieBAllDay]

It can stab. I only swung my original design specs blade

[@davidlarue2492]

Isn’t that a hollow forge and not hollow ground. I know they do that on their kukris because the 2 are different

[@DonnieBAllDay]

You may be right

[@Captain-Electro]

That reminds me of them competition choppers. Them ones they cut rope, tennis balls, coke cans and try to set a good time. I'd like to see one of those against a custom one. Edge seems slick as hell on that one 🤘👍the shape of that hollow grind would win it.

John Rambo was running from his past I think, trying to live down all he'd done. My opinion. Maybe that's why he had no knife. He didn't need it for the life he was living.

[@DonnieBAllDay]

I don't think he was without a knife. I think forging is therapy for a shell shot SF VN Vet. He had a knife. His old knives were shown in his last movie, so they were somewhere. I think he wanted a machete made for killing since this journey was taking him through the jungle.

[@B-leafer]

I think you are spot on. You can see his "attitude " in the movie while forging that chopper. He was pissed for sure, and took it out on that steel which later took it out on the enemy! Good call Donnie.

Wish I had it, Was suppose to get it delivered the other day and something did but it wasnt the Mission IV lol dipshit at the Canadian Depot sent me the wrong blade luckly I was able to get a price correction refund for the one I did recieive, Now I have to talk with them again to resolve the matter of a wrong handle on a blade I ordered as well a missing Dbad commando that They forgot, I wasnt able to check my email for a few weeks so I Missed the photo confirmations and the wrong blade got sent out anyways and now its just easier for me to keep it, wont be able to get it for some time anyways and hopefully they do well with commando refund if it hasnt been made already. I love the stuff they make and Ill continue to finish getting the ones I want but it seems like every order after the next has been getting more and more frustrating, first time i bought the WarMachine and Preacher no issues with the delivery to where i was having them stored, after that they always have had a issue with getting them delivered and One of them just went missing during delivery and I have no way to get a refund on that it was suppose to be a Dbad OEF defender but Ill let it slide as long as they make it right for things I didnt get.
