We aren't into fixed blades as much but I swear your going to make me buy one of these! Another quality video guys, love that intro shot!

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

Thanks a lot Birdies! Fixed blades might not be as handy for taking with you but they can sure replace some heavy tools if need be. I love their versatility. Stay sharp mates :)

[@johnq4396]

Dutch Bushcraft Knives If you develop a tomahawk addiction it's also fun to split small logs with them.

[@toz_man3904]

Much love for DBK! Amazing vids and finally someone is a decent enough human being to put the song titles in the description! I've heard the song in countless other videos by other great KZbinrs but no one else leaves their music in the description! Thank you for the great informative vid and the song I have been looking for!

[@The35jackal]

Hell Yea!!!! Happy for you Brother, glad you like your A1 Pro!!!! Awesome!!!!!

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

thanks a lot Jack!

[@Potpig335]

Started watching you guys some time ago for the laughter, keep watching you guys for the information. Very well done Gent's. Your methodology and presentation along with video work is truly unique and accurate. I appreciate all the work that goes into the videos and congratulate you on a job very well done.

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

+bob smith thanks a lot bob and you are very welcome

[@jkno]

A great knife, doing an excellent hard job. Cannot wait for mine to arrive :)

[@kevinfraser5179]

Using the most traditional of the Dutch methods. The chainsaw. Great video, as always!

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

haha thanks a lot mate!

[@Shooter11B]

As an update, mine came a week ago and it is AWESOME!

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

+Steven Szabo good to hear Steven!

[@huanzu]

OMG what a beast!

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

it sure is and I love it! Stay sharp mate!

[@labreezy2275]

I know it's commented throughout y'alls older videos but it really is amazing how the Fallkniven A1 pro was arguably the best knive in your collection and now you have Rocksteds and Aroura Scandi and so many more knives that cost more than my rent 😂 never stop the grind DBK! 💪💯

[@kemsn]

COS is such a nice steel

[@artymech]

Damn! I really need to get me one now!! Thanks! now I got to spend more money on more knives!! awesome knife and awesome slo mo!!

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

Thanks a lot! Appreciate the compliment. The pro series is amazing!

[@krisztiankiss9159]

Perfect knife in a perfect video :) Congratulation! :)

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

+Krisztián Kiss thank you so much!

[@FearNoSteel]

That's was badass! The slow mo was amazing!

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

thanks a lot mate! The slow motion helps us too to understand the difference between different knives etc. - your fallkniven brother.

[@FearNoSteel]

Dutch Bushcraft Knives Fallkniven Bros 4 lyfe! 👊💪😁

[@Bishop87TTTT]

Thx Again Awesome video, and these slomo shots are dope :)

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

thanks a lot mate!

[@NorwegianWoods]

That is a good test. Nice to see that the handle and everything is holding up. I saw a few people reporting problems early on with these new pro series knives. Thanks for sharing :) - Martin

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

I had the same problem. It seemed to be a bad batch. Fallkniven replaced mine, even paid for my shipping. Excellent service and they fixed the problem on later batches. thanks for watching Martin really appreciate it!

[@csh6220]

If more people tried a convex grind, they would switch. It does everything well and is the strongest grind. Sharpening is just a matter of stropping if you don't let it get too dull. Thanks for showing us how well it performed.

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

Thanks a lot mate! Even sharpening on stones is just a matter of loosening up your wrists a bit. It's the most alround and powerful grind.

[@mickyd1234567]

Another great video and an awesome test of a fantastic knife! I'd best start saving up some money :D

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

hahaha thanks a lot micky! The knife is awesome but yeah it does cost a mountain hehe.

[@karimnuri2533]

4:31 at this moment, Martin knew, he f***ed up

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

+Karim Nuri hahaha

[@marcgardiner3886]

Hahaha,you can't beat wake and bake mate ✌️️😉

[@Michael-ps7ji]

This is such an old video for you guys! So funny! Can you do a video about how you and Mikki met?

[@torsten4757]

Good video, I `ve seen most of your (and also other youtubers) Fallkniven test/review fotage. So I startet to look closer at fallkniven S1.... and then I want it so much that I thought all day long about buying this knife :-) Damn...!! This way it comes into a order at knives and tools by me, and now I looking forward that my S1 will arrive today. :-)) Oh happy day..... !!!!! :)) Best Regards from Germany!

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

haha I love the feeling that you can't wait to get something! I hope you will be very happy with you knife! The S1 is a very versatile blade and maybe one of the best allrounders. Freundliche gruss aus die Niederlande! (

[@torsten4757]

Hi I get my knive. But the handle doesnt fit to my hands. It is to slim,to hard, and not gripy enough for my taste. .... I have to send it back and look out for another good Option. .. Greetings from Germany

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

Hey, I'm sorry to hear that. I like it a lot but hey a knife is like a shoe it fits one comfortably while it ackes the other. You should look into bark river. they have the best handles on the market in my opinion and I love CPM-3V.

[@torsten4757]

Thanks for the advice! ☺👍

[@primemover1930]

Just ordered it and your vid helped me decide. Time to retire the BK7.

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

thanks a lot! congrats with your great purchase!

[@kylekeenliside]

Zer0 Tolerance I recently purchased a bk7, I was wondering what your opinion on it was

[@gixxerflier1]

Of course another great video! #DBK

[@crackers_are_great_with_am9572]

Do you know what that # leads to? Is kinda strange.

[@mcj5644]

Nice demonstration, bro!👍 I really like the blade and I wish that Fällkniven would offer the A1 Pro with a leather sheath option (no box).

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

Who knows what the future will hold. I would like to think fallkniven will do a leather sheath release later on. Thanks for watching mate :)!

[@WilliamLaroche1.618]

I find when camping that I only need to baton a few pieces to get the fire going, and then i just use logs. So my hands would be fine, just batoning a few logs.

[@leemichel8199]

if you could make the perfect knife what would it be....???? great video btw love the slow motion. keep up the great work and happy new year from UK.. cheers 🍻

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

thanks a lot Lee! happy new year!. my perfect knife would look like the Bark River gunny scandi. maybe a wee bit longer. I think id would be in CPM-3V. Ive got one coming custom made so hopefully I'll know if it's will be my favourite soon! cheers!

[@yesdeere1376]

The star of this show is the old school husqvarna. Although the knife was cool too.

[@yesdeere1376]

Dreoilín ÓCoigligh I have been shopping for a small axe. I will definitely check them out.

[@Ve-suvius]

You should baton the handle like you did with the Gerber Strongarm. Let's see how that Thermorun holds up when pounding it. Or might it be not such a good idea batoning on the handle. You fill in the answer.

[@johnhuynh9298]

I already have a bravo 1.25 in ev for batonning but this video makes me want to get that knife lol.

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

I would love to get my hands on the 1.25. I think it would be a perfect allround user with that length. I often miss a bit of length on my bravo 1 so I think the 1.25 would be perfect. The A1 pro is a great knife and I love it a lot. Thanks for watching mate :)

[@johnhuynh9298]

+Dutch Bushcraft Knives The bravo 1.25 in 3v is the goldilocks of knives. It is the Jack of all trade of knives and is very close to being a "perfect" knife. I am not a fan of the bravo 1 due to its' lack of length for how thick it is. I am a huge fan of the bravo 1 lt version especially in elmax (my sharpest knife). highly recommend the bravo 1.25.

[@SonofHendrik]

Omdat ik vind dat je het moet weten; de juiste uitspraak van Fjällkniven is Fjellkniven. Goede video overigens.

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

@@SonofHendrik ja zeker! maar toen we bij hun op bezoek waren noemden ze het zelf ook de hele tijd “Fallkniven” dus volgens mij boeit het hun niet heel erg. Dankjewel goos!

[@roguesheep1747]

No safety glass tut tut 🤪😜💪👊👍

[@erikshetney6611]

Great video and review. I like how you test the products and now I'm convinced to save money for the F1 Pro. Slightly off topic question for you, the "oak wood" you used in the videos, what kind of oak is that? I ask because here in the North central US the bark doesn't look like that, but obviously in the Netherlands you have different species of trees. Also, do you get a chance to practice your bushcraft in the wilderness? EDIT: I know this is the A1 Pro video, but do you know the interior dimensions of box that comes with the F1 Pro? I'm thinking it could be a great dry box for electronics, first aid etc during a backpacking trip.

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

Hey Erik, I don't knkow the exact dimensions but the box is just is a few mm bigger than the knife. So about the total blade length + 1cm or so. I have a very old video on it which might help you get a feel of the dimensions kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqSqpmikaLyip8U We have Quercus robur, Quercus, Quercus petraea and Quercus Rubra. The Ruba (American oak) is kinda a invasive species here but it's used because of the nice autumn colours. The oak I split in this video is the Quercus robur which is our most common oak. I sometimes go to Scandinavia to experience some real wilderness but I've also been to Canada. In the Netherlands we only have few hectares of real untouched forest left.

[@marcgardiner3886]

I am getting one of these bad boys, 🔪

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

+marc gardiner yesssss blesss!!

[@joew9415]

Dutch Bushcraft Knives damn I want that one too I hope i can find a vendor in the US.

[@marcgardiner3886]

Joe W yo Joe, my misses. Doesn't even know that I ordered one!, sh

[@joew9415]

marc gardiner hahahaha good move

[@7Belial7]

I'm waiting for 2 MBB customs (goodbye money), but when I'll recive them, I'll get a Fallkniven for sure... still don't know which one to chose!

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

damn haha 2 MBB customs that's pricey stuff! Kinda jealous here hehe.

[@7Belial7]

Yeah hehe... it's hard to fight against our syndrome, you know that!.... Everytime we are like: "ok this is the last one"... then, just after few weeks, it kicks again...the full-idiot-knife-junky mode on.. It's uncontrollable!! :P

[@feckneddy]

Aw so young ,so nervous .....Still a bloody great knife

[@joi777]

If at the same grind and everything, and you say that the A1 pro is 100%, how far would you say the regular A1 would reach in regards of edge retention?

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

mmm hard one hehe. I still love VG-10 a lot. Price increase never equals performance increase sadly. CoS steel contains a bit more carbon (increases edge retention) and a lot more cobalt (enhances the other elements and increases hardness) . The CoS is also 1-2 HRC harder. This together with my current experiences with the steel I would say VG-10 is about 75-80% what VG-10 is in terms of edge retention. However CoS get's a extremely sharp edge more easily while still very easy to sharpen and maintain. If you want the most out of your money I would say get the vg-10 version. IF you don't mind spending more money the CoS version makes a beast of a knife.

[@icecorebaby]

So guys, bark river bravo 3 or Fallkniven A1 pro? I already have a bark river bravo 2 and a fallkniven a1. Man I can't decide lololol

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

the Bark River Bravo 3 is a sword haha. I don't think the bravo 3 is practical so i'd personally skip it unless you just want it for it's manliness haha

[@tlick88]

do you have a video on knives that are good on bones and meat?

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

+AsiaNYelloWNecK Not net really, you should check out virtuovice he has a lot of hunting videos and videos on hunting knives.

[@tlick88]

Dutch Bushcraft Knives can't bushcraft knives get the job done the same way?

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

+AsiaNYelloWNecK If we would do the same as him, we would get arrested.. we havn't got a hunting licence and even if we did the gouvernment makes it hard for us to just go out hunting.

[@martinwozenilek485]

is it true that on some of this survival knifes, made in Japan, the handle gets loose? if it's true the impact in a survival situation could be bad. not in the backyard of course. ;)

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

it was true. Mine had a kinda loose handle. I think it was a wrong batch. I and some other people I know have send their knife back and got a new one without the issue. Fallkniven has great customer service! I think all fallknivens now should be good as they have fixed the issue.

[@Ovatione]

Leuke slomo shots man. Als je zou MOETEN kiezen voor 1 mes voor 2 weken Zweden. Fallkniven A1pro of een Bark River Bushcrafter 2. Welke zou jij meenemen. Je mag alleen een pocket strop meenemen.

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

Hele moeilijk keus. Beide supermessen. Toch zou ik uiteindelijk kiezen voor de Fallkniven omdat je hier verder geen omkijken naar hebt. CoS is roestvast en het handvat kan ook rustig een jaar in de blubber blijven liggen voor er wat mee gebeurd. Thanks man!

[@zbigniewsoja9206]

A1 can do everything the Pro does

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

it can for sure. what you pay for is the better steel. if that is worth the extra costs is what the buyer has to decide

[@marcgardiner3886]

You guys are fuckin awesome,I'd love to come over to meet you and chop some shit up 🔪😂, and try some of your wild veggies 😉

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

You better not, you might turn out looking baked hahaha. Thanks a lot Marc! your words are really appreciated!

[@zarethd]

What kind of supplements can you get out there, you guys are buff lol

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

haha thanks Zareth! I actually don't use any supplements at all. Just a lot of peanut butter haha.

[@zarethd]

Dutch Bushcraft Knives Noted. I will eat all the peanut butter

[@AG.Floats]

Haha just get out and split wood and carve stuff and camp all day! Bushcraft can be a good workout

[@paulie4x1]

Say Heah, Yup my raticals are targeted on the Fallkniven Pro Series Knives. Yup my Wanna, Wanna List.,,. p

[@tidebleach9515]

battoning job....... that's what she said

[@user01yf58]

Use chopper

[@felipehargreaves4177]

Time to retire the bk2

[@samcustom5857]

Hello , when the video is slowed down or accelerated , the performances of the knife is less evaluated . 😉

[@markusmesser8818]

Only the Price is the Problem

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

yup,, this sharp knife comes with a blunt price lol

[@csh6220]

You need EYE PROTECTION when using a chain saw!!!! Please don't go blind so early in life. No excuses. I don't want to sound like your mother, but you need eye protection. It only takes one little piece of wood.

[@DutchBushcraftKnives]

No worries! I appreciate the tip. I always force myself to use ear and leg protection but forget about the eyes. I should use it.

[@rolandxor179]

pff €500 ...but then if you could only have one..
