Fallkniven F1 Review & Demonstration- LONG TERM USE

[@naturalspaces71]

Refreshing to see a review based on experience rather than dollars. Solid no BS review

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

Natural Spaces oh man, thank you so much! That means a lot! Ya I’ve been wanting to do this one for a while but I’m glad I waited! Thanks for watching

[@johnnybeanz1296]

Excellent vid. One cautionary comment: I bought one of these several years ago from an authorized dealer for over $100. Sometime after that I was screwing around on alibaba (Chinese website) and saw an identical knockoff. $10. I bought it just to see how close it was. Box and sheath were identical. Knife was exactly the same in size and markings. Only difference was the vg-10 lamination line on the blade was missing and the metal ring inside the hole in the handle was loose. Bottom line: buy one from an authorized dealer and beware of a steep discount in price.

[@somefuckstolemynick]

You are absolutely correct, the Fallkniven company even warns about conterfeits on their webpage.

[@StevanOutdoor]

First time I see somebody else explaining and demonstrating the tip up tip down featherstick technique. Kudos. The zytel sheath is lose for a reason so the knife won't freeze solid in there. I think it's a great all seasons, all climates companion knife where you can just throw it in your bag and forget about it until you need it. Or as back up knife.

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

Thanks!!! For me it is the perfect knife

[@douglassuggs9163]

Thank you for the great review of the Falkniven F1. After your expert review based on experience in the field with the knife, I went out and purchased one for myself. I have used it on day hikes, to assist with yard work, in the kitchen for food prep, to cut and trim hiking poles and on trail work jobs. It is the best all-round knife I have ever owned. I am completely happy with it. Your review helped me learn about his great knife. Also, I appreciate the feather stick pointers. I plan to watch some of your other videos. Keep up the good work.

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

Thank you so much! So glad the knife is serving you well! Enjoy your life long companion! I’ve owned a few knives and always come back to the F1! Cheers

I see you as many others do not understand how to take the Fallkniven knives out of the sheath. It is not a direct draw, but thumb press to move the finger guard out of the notch.

I bought the Thor a few years ago and now want a smaller companion knife to mount with the Thor. The F1 seems to be the Perfect match. Together they could handle anything and everything you’ll ever run into. I’ve been looking at lots of different knives. I’m pretty sure the F1 will fool the gap. Thank you for the information.

[@pennsyltuckyreb9800]

BRUH....😁 That is one HEAVY setup to be all strapped together! If I were going to do that I'd go for something like the WM1 as a companion blade. My favorite setup for winter is a regular A1, small, lightweight pocket knife, and my axe and saw in the pack. One day I'd love to have either a Thor or Modern Bowie just because though haha. 👍

Just got an F1 COS today with the zytol sheath. I have been using carbon scandi's for 25 years and always enjoyed the maintenance side of things as well as the use and abuse. I do a lot of canoe/wild camping in tidal rivers so looking forward to seeing how far I can push this bad boy and how the convex grind performs with the COS steel. Hopefully off to the woods for a couple of nights once Christmas is out of the way for a bit of peace , quiet and a recharge for the soul. The knife will be the cherry on top.🔥🤙

[@mfavia620]

First off Nick, you need to make more videos. The notifications come too few. LOL. Great review of the F1. I ended up getting a pretty plain Kydex sheath for mine Plain meaning just one with a ferro rod holder. The mouse pad/ sandpaper trick does work very well. Also found some sandpaper by 3m that has kind of a rubber/foam backing to it. I believe they use it for some extra cushion when sanding drywall. Thanks again for the video and look forward to the next one. Btw, my two favorite knives are the F1 and the LT Wright GNS. ATB Mike

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

Mike, thank you so much I really appreciate it! Comments like that definitely have me packing the camera more often!! Also the gns is a beautiful knife! I have a knife that is very similar to the gns and I always switch between the f1 and scandi depending on the trip

[@silvanigra]

Good review, covering all the essentials, plus some sound advice for using a knife. I'll soon buy a second F1, but I can't decide whether to go for the leather or the zytel sheath! :) I like the look and feel of leather, but I also like that the zytel is compact and solid, weatherproof, etc.

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

Thanks!! They are great knives! The Zyrtec definitely has its advantages but it is very slightly noisier than the leather but is bomb proof too

[@taefer7437]

The leather sheath is much better in my opinion. The Zytel is known to break.

[@timb8970]

I saw a video where the gentleman said the sheath is suppose to be slightly loose. Something to do with cold weather and the knife freezing into the sheath.

[@christinelambourne4139]

hi there. i'm wondering if you've noticed any problems with the handle. i'm a little unsure about the material and whether it will hold up to hard use. i like everything else about this knife and i'm very close to pulling the trigger on it, but i just have that one little niggle about the rubber handle. i worry that it could wear down or split etc. after several years using it i wonder if you have encountered any such issues yet? thanks in advance, and btw excellent video.

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

Hey there! When I first got the knife I expected that the handle material would be a problem but all these years later I can honestly say it pretty much is in pristine condition and I’ve never taken any extra precautions to keep it safe. This knife is nothing but a daily workhorse for me. I truly don’t think you will ever have an issue with the handle durability

[@greekveteran2715]

Please sir, Do you use a strop to keep it sharp until you sharpen? Your blade and the edge looks perfect as it comes from the factory. How do you maintain that edge? Thanks in advance

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

Hey yes I always strop my knife on my belt the keep it hair popping sharp! Also when I sharpen I use 3M automotive sandpaper up to 3000 grit to get a mirror edge

[@caseysimpson1806]

I really like my F1. Your sheath modification is very practical. I am one of the few people who like the plastic sheath. As mine sits right now, it is very light and handy. Very easy to throw in my pack. What sand paper do you recommend with the mouse pad. Keep up the good work.

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

Thank you so much!! For sandpaper I use the following grits of automotive sandpaper 400 600 1000 1200 1500 2000 2500 Finish with micro paper (3500-6500)

[@caseysimpson1806]

For the majority of my outings in the mountainous areas of Arizona (home), Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming the F1 is my "go to" knife. You get a lot of knife in a handy package. I watched your video again an realized I did not specify which knife I preferred. I used my F1 to make a fire with feather stick this morning.

[@erikjensen6503]

I really appreciate the review of a true user knife! Experience and time! Thanks it is on my list of required tools. Is it worth spending extra $$ on a higher end steel?

[@igortmkrtchn5033]

Great review! A question: don't you feel it needs a little more length? Like S1 or BR Bravo-1 ? I'm considering F1 vs Bravo-1 for the same kind of staff like you do in the video.

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

When I first got the F1 my initial reaction was that it was a very short blade. But that is what I have grown to love about this knife. With a shorter blade it has a lot more control. I baton wood but rarely anything thicker than this blade and have never felt like I needed a longer knife.

[@igortmkrtchn5033]

@@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697 Thanks!

[@Nofixedabode859]

Hi great review, I have the f1 but never used it cus of difficulty of sharpening it also that people say it chips easy due to the steel type but watching this video you don’t have that problem also do you have a video the way u sharpen it with a mouse pad or could you explain thx?

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

mick skinner yes i think when people say that they mean hypothetically it isn’t as chip resistant as other knives but it’s strong enough to do any job I’ve given it. I’ve never had the edge chip in all of these years. I also think that once one person has a bad experience other people tend to repeat what they have heard rather than experienced for themselves. If you search “sharpening a convex edge with mousepad” lots of great tutorials will come up, it is super easy to sharpen this way

[@kenta4037]

Thanks for the informative review. What did you use to secure the fire steel to the sheath? Is it an inner tube from a bicycle?

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

Thank you so much! Yes I used the inner tube with rope, but recently redid it with a chapstick tube and tape, covered with paracord. Fits much better now

[@richardbaxter2057]

Love this knife! A friend first got me into the F1 at the range, so I went home and got hold of the 3G variant (the initial limited run No0185)!

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

Adirondack Wilderness co custom knife. He used to work for adventure sworn so almost identical to that

[@andyhooutdoors]

Very nice video review. I have a lot of knives, mainly scandi grinds, and the F1 is without a doubt one of my personal favourites for the very reason you have mentioned. I have bought 3 Mora Garberg (one of which is a carbon steel version) and though I love the Garberg I find myself reaching for the F1 most of the time. Because I liked the F1 so much, I went ahead and bought the F1 Pro and man was I disappointed with the F1 Pro. It just doesn’t feel as balanced as the F1, the handle on the Pro is more aggressive and chewed up my palm. If I could describe the handle on the F1 Pro it would be like holding a file in my hand. Where I camp I am in the tropical rainforest and with the intense heat and humidity wearing gloves is out of the question, at least for me. Other than the more aggressive handle, the ergo on the F1 Pro doesn’t feel as good as the F1. The Pro got left in the wardrobe out of sight, out of mind and hasn’t seen use from when I got it. Fallkniven called the F1 a survival knife, but the grind is so good I personally felt it makes a great bushcraft and food prep knife too. I have owned the F1 for almost as long as you and now I am drooling over the newer one with the CoS steel. Not sure if I should get that. Would you?

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

That is awesome! I was lucky enough to be one of the product testers before they released the Pro series Knives! That was my biggest issue with it as well. Also the steel bolsters don’t make sense if you are doing anything in a winter environment as steel on the handle sucks all the heat out of your body. If it were me, I would keep using the F1 that I have but I’m a sentimental guy lol

[@andyhooutdoors]

Blackwater Bushcraft Woodland Allure That is one of the reason why I haven’t purchased the F1 CoS. In a way I love my current F1 so much and don’t see a need to, and as long as the F1 hasn’t die on me it is hard to justify getting the CoS version. But damn, my mind could not stop thinking about CoS! 😂

good video man. what is your experience with the handle, it seems so small .. How big is your hand? M/L? Is it comfortable in the hand for long use, because of the thin handle?.. hmm

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

Thanks Stef, I definitely have large hands. The handle is thin and my other knives have much wider handles compared but if I’m being perfectly honest, it doesn’t bother me at all and it is very comfortable for long term use! I’ve never looked at the thin handle as an issue it’s comfortable with many different grips

[@DoesntMatterTheAt]

Can you tell me about how you made that ferro rod set up?

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

I just hollowed out a chapstick tube and cut off the one end. Duct tape that to the sheath, then wrap with paracord.

[@DoesntMatterTheAt]

So you have a 1/2 ferro rod in the tube? Now I gotta measure a chapstick tube 🤔 haha

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

Ya I got it from firesteel .com I think

[@kenta4037]

Excellent review. What did you use to secure the fire steel to the sheath? Is it a bicycle inner tube?

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

Yes exactly, although I have changed it since then, I took apart an old chapstick tube, duct taped the tube to the side. It fit the firesteel perfectly, with an elastic rope to keep the ferro rod in the tube, then rewrapped the whole thing with paracord again. Now I can take the ferro rod out with ease

[@kenta4037]

[@feralgrandad4429]

Well, you put me over the edge.Just got one. Good price coz in the box but no sheath as he'd lost it. Plus he didn't like the convex and he put a micro bevel on it. The sheath was easy, im in Europe so new one direct from Fällkniven was like 16 euro to my door (ordered the same sheath you have) so, just got to put a convex back on it. Any tips for that please mate? My first convex knife. Though ive sharpened axes that are convex so guess is similar? Nice, concise video. Thank you for sharing. Subscribing was easy decision ;-)

[@blackwaterbushcraftwoodlan6697]

Thank you so much I really appreciate that!! The easiest way to guarantee a consistent convex edge is to use automotive sandpaper and a computer mouse pad. Basically you put the paper on the mousepad and slide the knife away from the edge not toward the edge and the mousepad creates the perfect convex angle as you push down on the sandpaper. I start at around 400 grit then work my way up to 2500 grit. Which will give you a polished mirror edge. I usually go from 400 650 1000 1500 2000 2500 Thank you so much for the kind words and once you get it back to a beautiful convex edge you will certainly love this knife!!! Cheers

Sonny Maguiresmith Miigwetch!! I tend to use the Adirondack more in the summer, and the F1 in the winter. But I usually switch it up all year too ha ha they are both sooo great in their own ways, they are really they only two knives I’ve been back and fourth with over the years. They both excel at almost all tasks. The Adirondack is more sentimental to me so I would have to pick it solely for that reason. Miigwhetch for the thoughtful comments.
