It's called Campero because it is the classical shape of the knife folks used in the countryside (el campo) when working here in Spain. It is a totally Spanish knife, included its history :)

Even Larin Thomas (knife steel nerds and the developer of MagnaCut) agrees. He broke down the composition to its chemistry and compared it to other budget ingot steels. Its basically the best mix of toughness and edge retention you can get until you more into powderform steels. Check out his posts about it specifically or his video breaking down most of the common knife steels in toughness vs edge retention on his youtube channel.

If the knife were any thicker it would be a club! Still, it's not as thick as some. I had a Falkniven, stupid thick! Back in the day, 100+ years ago people didn't beat their knives with a club, they simply gathered small wood to start their fires. The modern criteria for a bush craft knife, according to You Tube, is how well it survives abuse from couch potatoes.

All I can say is that I have watched your Joker Lynx and Nomad videos. There was even a bit on the Joker Nessmuck. You made the choice for me to choose Joker. They are a phenomenal knife all around. It is hard to find something wrong with them. I currently own the Nomad. Simply awesome and will be adding the Joker Nessmuck soon. I wanted to carry the Nessmuck as I am from the Adirondacks and would find it honorable to carry a knife so similar to the one carried by George Washington Sears. Again, I can attest to the craftsmanship and the durability of these knives. They are kinda stand alone. I am so glad that you opened the door to the Joker company and that I took your advice. Truly the best knife maker out there. The Nomad is a beast.

I've just bought the Joker Compero for hunting. Haven't yet used it on a deer but I'm keen to see how it handles field butchering compared to my original Coldsteel Master Hunter in carbon V steel which is what I judge all my other knives against. I'm very pleased with the design and overall finish of the Compero especially considering the overall price of $145 Australian delivered. If Joker offered a Kydex style sheath I would probably have gone with that over the leather purely for practical reasons. Great reviews, keep it up.

And it still hasn't given up the ghost after well over a decade of use and abuse.

I agonized over the Joker and the Mora Garbro. This is my first Bushcraft knife, and I don't have a lot of money either. The Gabro is arriving in two days. My hand is not large, but I'll be working that knife a lot. The Joker shape is very appealing, much like my favorite kitchen knife. The handle to the Mora is beautifully designed. I would rather carbon steel. Am old school, and I live in a humid environment too! Go figure! It was a very hard choice. Might get a Companion too some day.

[@pepzapata5577]

J&V Knives, Cudeman, Muela, Miguel Nieto and Joker, of course... As a Spanish guy I own several of every brand and You should take a look at Cudeman or Nieto too. You will not regret it. For example, one of my preferits is my Nieto Chaman in Bohler N690co or, if I had to choose between any beast type like my BK2 or the Cudeman Entresierras for a humidity situations, definitly I'll choose the Cudeman. Just saying.

[@hammerhead2869]

Same... I own several knives from Miguel Nieto, Muela, Joker, Cudeman etc ... And I love them all. Great knives ! My favourite ones are the Nieto Chaman MK140 + and my Cudeman (I forgot the exact name sorry). Speaking about the Chaman I just got its neck knife variant : the Chaman Micra.

Manly Knives Crafter or Manly Drugar or Manly Patriot in CPM 154 . Perfect heat treatments, BEST blade and edge geometries on the market!!! A step above Jokers, both in heat treatment and in edge geometry. Their Drugar, cuts better than a Victorinox (CPM 15 carbides) and has similar slicing abilities. Thinest behind the edge fixed blade, I ever had, gives not only great cutting performance, but longevity of that slicing performance too!!

[@eyeofthetiger4184]

G'day Charles, I thought these might get your attention mate. I've had a Nomad quite a while now and the N695, (my understanding similar to 440C), has performed admirably. Not quite sure why to be honest; it is quite thick stock, high sabre and convex ground, but I suspect the HT is just right to go with it. In any case it bodes well for their other models too. Cheers Duke.

I really wish they made their Nomad knife in 14c28n

[@SkywalkFPV]

Would you choose the Joker Ember F over the Lynx?! Since like you mentioned in the video you might prefer stainless (14c28n) more, over the MoVa 1.4116 - to have better edge retention and corrosion resistance, compared to the Mova that for my understanding has more carbon content in it making it weaker than the 58-61 Rockwell Sandvik full stainless is able offer.. Right?!

[@gideonstactical]

Yes I would take 14c28n if I have a choice

[@Bruce_S]

I bought a Joker Canadiense with walnut handle scales a few years back. In short, I love it. The build quality is superb, the steel really holds an edge and is tough, and it came shaving sharp. I did eventually put my own edge on it (just a bit thinner), because I'm so used to it, but it's really just fine the way it comes. And, like you said, the sheath is outstanding. You would pay a lot for the sheath alone to have one made. My only regret is not buy the micarta version, for the added texture/grip. I felt like staying super traditional at the time, lol.

I haven’t used it to process any game, but given how other Nessmuks work on game, I’m quite confident this one is up to the task. No regrets from me on my purchase of the Joker Nessmuk.

you cant go wrong with joker knives super good price, very good quality (the finish puts most expensive knife brands to shame) you guys in the states are way to obsessed with high carbon knifes in europe its the other way arround we like our stainless steel 99,99% of us will never come in the situation where they have to use their knife to throw a spark to ignite a fire you might do it cause you can but we all have ferrow rods on us and any hard edge can throw sparks from a ferrow rod even aluminium but you dont have to do it i take böhler n690c, 440c and sandvic 14c28 over 1095, 1060, o1 or d2 any day all your highly praised high carbon steels are cheap and you got brainwashed to thinking you need a high carbon steel you dont... even if you come in a survival situation you will still have your ferrow rod on you the chance you lost everything but your knife... yeah its not a movie my guys the survival situation is allready very unlikely to happen... and a situation where you loose all but your knife... come on guys... plz... slime to none is the chance...

[@dolguldur4706]

Joker really made very good knives...however,its very hard for me to leave my bk10 crewman behind....yes its carbon steel,but im always clean and oil my crewman...and complete all the task that has been given to my crewman..🤘🏻

[@cookscatapults]

Hahahaha Awesomeness

[@tonayo27]

What you think of joker nomad? It is a good survival knife?

[@gideonstactical]

It’s a good all arounder for sure

[@tonayo27]

Who is a good survival knife for you? A knife that do not break easily and can do tuff work? Thanks!

[@hypebeatz563]

Can you check the ontario huny plus camp knife? it's about 30 usd

[@turbotim007]

When you did the video on the Joker Nomad, I had to have it and I bought one me myself and my Dad soon after. It has a great shape and very comfortable in the hand.

[@silvercommander]

I want a trampero

[@jarrettsroka3795]

Hey could we see a comparison between there blade steels if your looking for a video idea, I'm curious of the performance difference

[@Bullets4TheDevil]

I have the Lynx and I love it but a little fat for food prep (it won't cut my kids pancakes as good as my Cutco chef knife)... . Such a fantastic, beautiful knife. Will probably get a Campero but leaning towards a Nessmuk FFG right now. Who we kidding tho.. I'll end up with a Campero soon.

[@MrEdgy81]

As someone that loves sharp steel I would go for the K720 carbon steel @63-64 HRC in the scandi variant. Thanks for the review, awesome looking knife!

[@MrEdgy81]

@@Elektroslag yep, if you go to Amazon and read the description it's all listed right there.

[@MrEdgy81]

@@Elektroslag considering that is where they are sold and the other info is correct... so I'd have to say that's the best info you are getting. But no, go on, you seem to suddenly be an expert on information because you were too lazy to go look for yourself. I do like how are trying to tell me I'm wrong though... When you are the one too blind to read basic information.

[@dennisleighton2812]

Hi there!' Well, here's some good news for some new content! Victorinox has just launched a new dedicated fixed blade Bushcrfat knife (Note: they insist it is NOT a survival type knife!), and it's called the Venture. It may be a bit difficult to obtain one in the US (it's basically sold out in Europe!), but if you can I'd be very interested in your opinion. Enjoy!

[@elnetini]

Just bought a Campero for 73 USD including shipping. Let's see, hoping it lives up to the review

[@merellemain5835]

The ABSOLUTE best survival knife you can have is... the one you got on you. Stop trying to justify stuff. I have a knifge dreamer's collection of knives still in the original packaging. But, the best one I have "when needed" is the one I HAVE on me. ALL blades are Rc 58 to 62,... all. You want a good knife blade? Go with D2 tool steel or better! You want surgery? Stainless is the best! All after is just mixes of steels. How many handles can you get?

[@michalrachunek4934]

Too bad they have no variety of lengths. All of their knives have about the same blade length, ca. 10.5 cm, which I find too short. Ideal length for me is 12-13 cm, but they don't have that.

[@screwface6552]

I have the nordico and it's great .high quality fit and finish all things mentioned I agree. Relatively new to scandi grinds it seem like it's a little too thick with too shallow of a grind to do anything other than carving or wood craft well. I know that's where scandis shine but compared.to terasaur , Mora, or the bushlore seems less useful overall. Any body have a thought on it? Think it was a design choice or trying to add strength? I like it and am happy with it just less likely to carry it by itself

[@terryranger5525]

Have to agree. I have the Erizo, Nessmuk and SWAT. All excellent knives and sheaths and very affordable.

[@notmyname3883]

None of your links work. NO joker knives on blade hq. NO joker knives at gpknivs. NOT ONE. I've got better things to do than flip through hundreds of pages of knives to hopefully find ONE.

[@franciscojchacon6053]

Buddy can u review a Cudeman or Nieto knives? Also top Spanish brands, even Muela, all great Spanish brands of fantastic quality.

[@rcompton]

I have 3 of their knives... Trampero, Bushcrafter and Nomad. I love them. Welcome additions to my collection. The only thing I did to them is wet molded the sheaths and added custom lanyards I made for them. You get a knife ready to go at good price.

[@guillermosalas2267]

Ok i have to Say it, there are great blades out there and many of them are NOT AMERICAN MADE, Joker and cudeman are Big brands when for the european and south american market, americans check them out!

[@RS4393]

I'll stick with BPS Adventure knife. Fit my style quite well.Great review.

[@guillermosalas2267]

Aaron!! I've been a suscriber for a long time,but i can't find a vídeo on your watch selection... Did i Saw a Casio edifice??

[@Philippians--co6ww]

It's not crazy, it's not impossible and it's not even "sick". It's a solid product for a fair market price. YT knife guys have whored themselves to meteorite steel blades to the point value has gone out the window. I guess it's better than listening to townies drone on about golf clubs, but not by much.

[@adrianotero7963]

I have two of their Campero with different handles and their Trampero ....have the 4 different handle types.....

[@wazzeradk9398]

I own five Jokers and they are a great value!!!

[@Bullets4TheDevil]

UPDATE: I now own a stag handled Nessmuk and the Campero with Olive Wood handle. The first Nessmuk I received was a little wonky and exchanged it for another with a more symmetrical handle from left to right. The Campero does not have the fit and finish quality of my Lynx (seamless between scales and tang/liners). I wanted to note that my Campero does not have J Sabater on the blade and was wondering if you knew anything about Jokers that are not marked as such when others are. Thanks.

[@gideonstactical]

I’m really sorry to hear that, I hear mostly good experience and mine has been positive. I’m not sure about the markings. I would reach out to them on Instagram. Or email them directly.

[@branned]

I have many Snap-on and Bahco pliers made in Spain. My son just got a rifle made in Sain. Spain does some excellent things with steel.

Bro, how come you don't cover Shot Show? You're a fine communicator and would probably do some great interviews.
