DBK Bushcrafter Knife Unboxing & Comparison (Limited Edition)

Unboxing and first look of the DBK (Dutch Bushcraft Knives) 'Bushcrafter' produced by TRC Knives, as well as comparison with TRC's 'This Is Freedom'. I had to update after receiving a limited edition knife (numbered 1~300) that I've waited almost a year for. This is a low-key user's knife with sophisticated design details for use in the field. I rate this knife 9.6
약 1년간 기다려서 받은 리미티드 (300개 넘버링) 나이프 리뷰에요. 이번에도 자막이 없으니 간략히 설명하자면: 다양한 활용도에서 신경을 많이 써서 디자인되고 제작된 나이프이며, 그냥 봐서는 조금 심심할 정도로 무난하지만 볼매인 디자인과 재질입니다. 유투버인 DBK 친구들이 지금까지 수많은 칼을 사용하면서 실사용하기에 가장 좋은점만 골라서 디자인 했다고 하며, 몇 년 전부터 아포칼립스로 유명한 TRC가 제작을 맡았습니다. 언박싱과 함께 간단한 리뷰와 TRC의 '디스이스프리덤'과의 비교도 해보았습니다. 거의 완벽한 이 나이프의 점수는 9.6 입니다.

awesome unboxing man! Thank you so much for sharing!!

[@DaveLeeKnives]

Its such a good knife!!! The more I look at it the better it looks. Cant wait til the weather becomes warmer so I can go camp out with this thing!

[@Simon-talks]

All my life, all I every wanted was a DBK knife

[@mountainmanmcbeachfront5296]

My great grandfather would talk about the DBK knife to his great grandfather back in the 1700s. Waiting for the day it was released.

Not bad looking. Needs a clip point for sex factor.

Those DBK boys really know their stuff. Theyre young but they do know knives from what ive seen.

[@DL-ij7tf]

I mean they're sort of young, they're around 30 I think. It's not like age brings knife wisdom, most old people don't know shit about knives.

[@holdernewtshesrearin5471]

@@DL-ij7tf - im referring to their tenure as knife experts on YT, but i consider 30 young. I know despite my beliefs at the time and being a fairly intelligent guy i didnt know shat until i hit 35 and wisdom doesnt even begin until mid 50s as i understand it. The DBK guys are silly and a bit immature at times but when it comes to real world knife use, they seem remarkably knowledgeable and well versed and have since the beginning when they were quite young, perhaps late teens, early 20s.

[@vagabond4576]

​@@holdernewtshesrearin5471 Everyone is different but experience trumps the age. Not to mention there is a lot of old people that act the same way or worse when it comes to immaturity. Not to mention they have discussed it in a podcast that they wont change their ways for anybody because they don't want to be like the other channels. It makes them unique and be themselves. They also touched on how the original videos were like others. I met your types so I know your gonna fire back. But I heard it all. I think those guys are not gonna change their attitude as they get older. Some do but I work with 45-60 year old military veterans. They act just like kids and there are those that act like you mister high and mighty I'm older therefore I am better and more mature. Don't deny it and I'm not gonna reply because I know what your gonna say and also I turn off my reply pings because I got shit to do old man. Just let my knowledge and experience that trumps most people past 30-40 years in my field wouldn't even see. Let that sink in.

[@stevanoutdoor]

I disagree. They know the theoretical part but have no extended experience with any of the steels or knives in the bush.

[@holdernewtshesrearin5471]

@@stevanoutdoor - I agree that I don't believe they have real, hard-core survival experience but then, most of us aren't concerned with that. We just want to know which knives are worth buying.

[@mrc2205]

It’s a beautiful knife. The DBK boys know knives.

[@diducthesizeoftahtchicken]

You should keep going, your content and video quality is excellent! Way above average, would love to see more.

[@DaveLeeKnives]

I appreciate your kind words!!

[@chrismaynard8600]

I have #142, its a very well built knife and its very sharp. Its almost too nice to really use. DBK is supposed to be coming out with another more budget friendly knife in the future, I can't wait to get that one too.

[@DaveLeeKnives]

Yeah i feel you on that… kind of saving it for the right occasion…

[@Blessedbyanangel764]

That cutting paper was sick !!!!! I do not understand why yet ….. 😊

[@clockworkorange3628]

Those BDK boys did a great job

[@DaveLeeKnives]

For sure a great piece! If i had to bring only one knife to the woods this might be it. Maybe not for backpacking though.

[@TheGamerMario1000]

I got my hands on one of these this year i really appreaciate DBK for going out of their way and trusting me with how i payed for it its really a great knife really sharp well made and the leather work is outstanding

Yeasssss!! DBK boys know their stuff

damn that looks nice! i didnt have a creditcard at the time and so i was too late. definitely going to buy one when i get the chance.

Its easily one of the best bushcraft knives ever!!

Good review apart from the music and black gloves - shudder. Thanks for sharing

[@thefishinglor6931]

its a great knife! its just so hard to find available to buy

[@skywalker3477]

Nice Video, thx 🔥 I think i will like the this is Freedom more, just ordered one :)

[@DaveLeeKnives]

Cool!! TIF is a superb tool. U will be happy to own one

[@Robinson.69]

TIF is outstanding. I love mine. awesome cutting abilities, which are more important to me than batoning logs. I have ground mine to convex, so now its cutting with even less resistance. enjoy.

[@DrDuckMD]

That ferro rod looks exactly like a überleben ferro rod I have. They’re $16 on amazon.

[@Michaelblecich]

Looks great, still wish the DBK boys had given us Patreon supports a heads up, or first crack at them...

[@musclebillcoaching]

An all round larger run or another run really is in order, isn’t it?

[@joonies82]

Awesome vid mate. Found your channel, immediate sub cause I think we share the exact same name. Great vid, would love to see the knife made by the DBK boys. Maybe one day

[@DaveLeeKnives]

Thanks Dave Lee! I think theyre in the process of designing/collaborating for more in the future!

[@graydonwilkinson1458]

Can't get one of these knives if you are lucky to find one you pay 350 bucks minimum in Canada. It's a nice looking blade I've been looking for like this. Great job guys

[@marianalexe1824]

Good knife period

[@swamp.stomper]

Good video

[@longacre1041]

So basically TRC made them an LT Wright/Bark River hybrid.

[@rssin23]

Brilliant knife and excellent review. How does one order this if possible.

[@DaveLeeKnives]

Thank you! They had a kickstarter going last year, and i believe they had about another 500+ pieces backordered to produce n ship out this year… they wont me numbered but everything else should be the same. Also not sure exactly how to order now since kickstarter backing has ended but maybe try contacting them through email or dm?

[@sweetdrahthaar7951]

Have I got a deal for you. Tons of camera gear going on the block soon. An F3hp an FA With lots of fast Nikon prime lenses, a Leica M6 with four lenses, etc. A Tameron 300mm F2.8 & more.

[@jacobpetersen5662]

Been a while since BRK put out a knife like this, ha ha ha... IF they even got close? TRC shows them how it's done!

[@ErwinTeunissen]

Its a beauty, almost perfect knife but in my opinion the blade aswell as the sheath has a bit to much thickness make it heavy, and bulky. Its also very pricy.

[@DaveLeeKnives]

I gotta say, its a perfect allrounder camp/bushcrash knife if i were to bring just one knife that can do it all. At the same time, i like to bring at least 2 plus a pocket knife so at times it feels like my other knives are better for specific chores. All in all i think its worth the money!!

[@bbkdmprops]

Nice quality video unboxing!!! I hope you will enjoy yours , as I do mine!!! Cheers!!!

That’s the sharpest blade I’ve ever seen out of the box. A beauty too. Nice sheath as well. Cost?

[@DaveLeeKnives]

Id rather not mention the pricing here. U can search ‘dbk knife’ on kickstarter for more info! But i had to get international shipping plus VAT n etc so it came out to be way more than the actual price…!

[@wizardofahhhs759]

It's $420 USD.

[@DaveLeeKnives]

@@wizardofahhhs759 nice

[@shawnpepin7890]

Try bps knives. For around $25-45 US you’ll get one of the sharpest knives I have ever seen

[@jasonjohnson6344]

@@shawnpepin7890 Yep, once I’d heard of em and saw them on KZbin, I ordered several. The sheaths alone are worth the money but the knives themselves are outstanding. The full tangs are my preference anyway and the quality of the handles is plenty acceptable for the price point. Outstanding value and I really recommend them for a budget conscious knife fan.

Are you interested in selling this knife? If so let me know.

[@thehairywoodsman5644]

[@DaveLeeKnives]

Thanks 🙏

[@stevanoutdoor]

For me this is a Bark River made by TRC. Produced by TRC does mean good quality but it's basically the down sized version of the TRC Bushcraft model from years ago. But a $100 more expensive of course.

[@bazcharlie4680]

It's a Bark River clone

[@Bill-mw7sh]

U bought a gunny in elmax for $450…..

[@simos834]

the other is far more good looking knife than the dbks

[@DaveLeeKnives]

Yeah i can see why you think that… i love the looks of TIF too, its unique and sleek. But im also really into Loveless style traditional outdoor knife designs too…

[@JonCox-fn3hn]

Shame on you comparing this knife to a Bark River Knife! If it was like a BRK, the grinds would be off, the jimping 1/2 done and many other signs of poor workmanship! Ha! 🤣🤣😂😂😫😫

[@marcusmckay3668]

It looks like a Bark river knife rip off.

[@DaveLeeKnives]

I can see how u think that but in real life this one actually feels more like a Fallkniven in hand. But then again many outdoor knives are inspired by the Loveless…!
