How to Use a Large Bowie Knife in 2023

[@bbaker3510]

Yes, as a Cold Steel, one-piece drop forged Bowie owner, I confess to doing all the same things haha. Brilliant video, thank you!

[@JEP1776AEP]

Same with my Trail Master lol.

[@Supra_Mare_Cultro_Bloke]

same with Natchez.

[@gavinCZ]

He makes levelling up look easy

[@Tony-bo3rw]

1st 10 levels are a lot easier than the last 90.. Going from level 1-20 in the sword skills or strength was pretty tedious in old school runescape though

[@tombrown4683]

Thanks for this accurate peak at knife life. I usually just chop & split branches in the backyard but if milk cartons are your thing - why not !

[@jdisdetermined]

That’s more of a jug than a carton. 😁

[@AnomadAlaska]

Cuddling with my Marauder while watching this makes me happy. All perfectly sharpened to 17 degrees per side now. The factory edge needed a little improvement. She's so nice to cuddle with.

Always uplifting watching you have fun in the sun while I’m freezing me “ARSE” off on the other side of the world. You’re ancestors would be proud...

[@Lunarpreparedness]

I’m really happy you’re making a lot of content again, good-sir. For the last couple years, you’ve been my favorite creator. 👍🏻👍🏻 from the states 🇺🇸.

[@bennyc409]

Pete, your musical choices are an endless source of joy.

[@swamp.stomper]

Tetra Master song 🥹

[@BradGryphonn]

May I just say, that was an uplifting production. You've given me a potential use for my Asobi.

[@joeywhite6031]

Always better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.

[@thomagg]

😂 This was me yesterday with my bark river shining Mtn Bowie 😂😂

Yes, that was worth the money. I actually need one, i think i have one plastic bottle somewhere..

[@J85909266]

The joy when you finally find something to cut with your big, dumb knife is real though.

[@TheScotchaholic]

Big, dumb knife??? You've been watching too much Shabazz...

[@Juiceboxdan72]

I love enormous knives. They tend to freak people out, which is kind of fun.

[@TheScotchaholic]

People that are fearful of large blades and firearms, are the ones you want to avoid. They're the ones partly responsible for the nanny/police state.

[@CenkZappa]

@@TheScotchaholic Guns are now the leading cause of death for children in the US.

[@VivaLaRazsa]

Is there any job that an enormous knife does better than an average size one? Might as well get a machete at that point

[@llamawizard]

As a fellow Cold Steel 1917 Frontier Bowie owner, I can confirm that it absolutely makes a phenomenal back scratcher and even a back shaver. When used carefully.

[@xiaoabrose]

Yes! I also recklessly and needlessly purchased a big knife. Waiting on delivery. Cold Steel Trailmaster in 3v. EXCEPT I have a 3 week outdoor trip planned. Plenty of innocent trees to menace and fires to make!

[@SRVandDtrouble]

The sheath taps got me.

[@GOxHAM]

LOOOL at the 1790s cons 😂. I too have gone through a similar pros and cons thought process when considering a time when open carrying weapons was the norm.

[@zoiders]

I would definitely carry it on your right like a gladius. Cross draw seems correct until you stick it in your left hip by accident.

[@nandayane]

Just a head’s up 15V PM2s are dropping right now. Good luck with the hunt!

[@bobhabsolute4995]

1790 pro’s and con’s are a big pro to watch this channel! Pete’s Best Works! 😂😂😂

[@jorgefernandez6407]

LOVE my 1917 Frontier Bowie... 💙

[@eachday9538]

I'd just wear it around, the opportunities for use will reveal themselves. Spreading butter and honey on a crumpet? why yes

[@SRVandDtrouble]

Old pumpkins make good targets and are great for the chooks.

[@willemtecumseh2019]

You don't get enough Crocodile Dundee jokes.

[@archivist17]

Have you been spying on me? 😆

[@ExploretheMallee]

That. Was. Wonderful 👍

[@kevola5739]

I find the larger knives work well for limbing lower dead spruce branches. That does not seem to be a problem in your area but your demonstration is still real life use for you and AKB.

[@beyproctor7673]

Great music choice! Innocent, inquisitive and simple. The new boy reason I don’t have a giant Bowie knife is I don’t have any milk jugs to chop. You are truest rich!

[@ashleyheslop1132]

Did anyone else read the "great success" at the end in a Borat voice? 🤣

[@latinodeathjazz]

😂 this really brightened up washing the dishes.

[@Ofenlicht]

The use for having a large fckoff Bowie knife is... having a large fckoff Bowie knife

[@Heimdall_edc]

Best video of 2023! 🤣

[@eyeofthetiger4184]

G'day Pete, what, .......... no drop bears in your area ? Had to stop notch'n the handle scales for each kill, good grip now, but if I keep go'in there'll be no handle. Cheers Duke.

[@bilakos1987]

Hey, Pete. Can you make a video on Australian knives? Do we have any makers who make knives akin to LT Wright and Bark River and such?

[@DrJuice1]

These are my looking knives. Let's do a try on the bowie. Nice. This will be my having knife.

[@Yungtskt]

Glad im not the only knife nut that loves SNES and Chrono Trigger.

[@contrabassbob]

I was going to say something like 'the Perfect Companion to every Gentleman's Enfield Rifle' but was too involved in watching to see if your glasses would eventually slide off. 🤣

[@Olumin37]

Weapons of this length or longer are traditionally worn on the left & cross drawn my friend.

[@zoiders]

The Romans say other wise.

[@Olumin37]

@@zoiders That was because of tight formations & use of a large shield. Higher ranking centurions wore their swords on the left.

[@rodrigoteresa7944]

Hey Pete just want to say that after a long hiatus of about 3 years I'm finally starting to fall back in love with this hobby and your channel is definitely helping that process haha. Thanks for your content man

[@MichaelMassie]

Should’ve titled this video, “Every guy’s ideal Sunday afternoon.”

[@robertbarker5802]

Definitely happy time.

[@ogenmatic]

That reminds me. Gotta get milk this week. Thanks!

[@Hewhotubes]

Amusing as always, thank You!

[@Colt3854]

Shintaro would love your skills.😂

[@WhatsthePOINT_EDC]

Haha! Having fun man. That’s the best way to do it!

[@madmusial]

Your the best, definitely had a lot of the same thoughts carrying a big knife. Thank you

[@schnitzmaster3000]

Oh my god, you nailed it :-)

[@FoxMacLeod2501]

God damn it, I love you Pete

[@void1984]

Cold Steel level of video! Do you have a pig carcass nearby?

[@Rhubarb2]

Happy time!

[@targuscinco]

250 dollarydoos!? That's like $18 US. Expensive knife!

[@onesky8647]

Crocodile Dundee approves this video. 🤠👍

[@LarsRibe]

😂 Glad I'm not the only weirdo knife nerd.

[@lencycler1]

Maybe not relevant now, but in the wild frontier days of the U.S and Australia, this knife and a rifle just might help you (and your family) survive for a while.

[@Slippindisc]

The man knows his audience I’ll give him that

[@ajaxtelamonian5134]

Works good when youre in close with some invasive Rhododendron.

[@jamesrrr37657]

Knives are awesome.

[@nevillesavage2012]

Good old style. Brief and Witty

[@mattvagg6231]

Would be interested to see you test and review the Aussie made Smoko Designs pocket knives

[@magritteetmoncouteau]

I really felt that one lol Looks like e all have these kind of moments and thoughts in front of our collection. Greetings from Belgium!

[@briangreenlee4726]

My day exactly.

[@cruz68]

So relatable

[@weihe35]

Great, thx! 😁

[@bigaspaulo]

GREAT SUCCESS!

[@jonbuq2418]

ok, coupla things: 1. I own the same knife. If you have any suggestions for fixing the frankly awful grip that feels like trying to throttle a Nokia 3315, I'm all ears. Seriously, let me know if you fix to replace it because I'd love to hear. 2. To understand this fuckin thing, I think you need to watch some videos about bowie fencing. Some bowies are practical, some are big, but this thing is ludicris, and adhering to some archaic fighting style is about the only thing I can think of that explains it. 3. Homestead is coming along great. The Obligatory Boomer Palm is still alive so that's great for you. 4. Love seeing that Space Force Ka-Bar. Makes me smile every time

[@charlessalmond7076]

@My Dixie Wrecked🔨 the fact you don't own this knife makes me want to ask your pronouns.(Just a side note. I live in north Georgia. I wrecked a chick named Dixie last Saturday night. Good times.)

[@charlessalmond7076]

@My Dixie Wrecked🔨 one of us actually has the testicular fortitude to use their real name on the internet.

[@HydraBox777]

If it feels like an old nokia maybe you should put a cute phone charm on it

[@charlessalmond7076]

@My Dixie Wrecked🔨 so your moniker should perhaps be "Ima Yankee F☆☆ker" ? From your comment it would seem more accurate.

[@MrBowser2012]

😂 love it!

[@MurrayBarton]

Classic!

[@BradGryphonn]

1:18 PAUSE. Read the fine print. It's educational FFS.

[@DontLookBehindYou1]

This is me Everytime i sharpen my big knives

[@weejud4542]

One of the best things I’ve ever seen! 😂Laughing my actual ass off…

[@kailashblades]

u did it

[@mantaray2239]

I especially like the pros and cons of 1790s life 😅

[@billybedlum]

Can you do a cut test with ar rpm9 from cjrb/artisan cutlery please

[@Hungrybird474]

Ostrich or emu head taker

[@davidaxman]

This is me and the Terävä Skrama. I haven't ever needed to use it but I've massacred a lot of small trees.

[@herbalsnails]

Man, i miss a good JRPG card minigame right about now.

[@lonewolf597]

Touche happy day!

[@thaknobodi]

Next up, cold steel extra long oyabun san mai

[@MyScooter57]

Here in the US, we use it for fighting.

[@jasonchatham4170]

Bad news Pete: $259 flushed…..and laydees aren’t that innovative 😎

[@SpankyK]

Boredom Defeated!

[@Hungrybird474]

Throw them 👍

[@charlessalmond7076]

That knife would've shinned in the trenches of W.W.1.

[@geareas]

Beware of the revenge of the bottles… they might challenge to see how many you can cut in one slash!!!

[@catey62]

Hmm..this gives me ideas for my genuine Australian WW2 machete....must practice...hehe...

[@CEA9234]

What are uses of bowie knife?

[@bushna2007]

I thought for sure you were going to cut some cheese.

[@nasaboy87]

It's pretty bad that the last con point of living in the 1790s is still around in the modern US.

[@UFOSPACEMAN]

Link to blade?

[@Blakdog333]

secondary price will be $260 in 6 months... sound financial investment!

[@Howlin000]

Hahahaha I can feel this video

[@iscariotproject]

[@omitimehernandez2010]

What’s the name of the knife? I want one. 😅

[@bernhard7658]

Cold Steel 1917 Frontier Bowie

[@taylorfishman823]

I feel so seen

[@sweetdrahthaar7951]

All you guys that do this kind of thing make me think of how the wives likely watch from the house and roll their eyes. When women roll them twice I call it a double oh God 😂

[@Brahma-Astra]

da best way to use a bowie is to open letters with it ........ i do it all da time ......

[@MJFallout]
