Great deconstruction of the Sayoc! All Winkler axes seem great but that is the one to get. Thanks for showing it's effectiveness so well!

[@RolandoEstocada]

Thank you my friend! It REALLY is the one to get! My NEXT video will do a comparative analysis between the full size and compact front spike RnD. Should be out tomorrow!

⁠@@RolandoEstocada @markstallman Put it so well I can only say good job to him and I second this comment! I thought after seeing your obvious appreciation for Winkler’s work, you would appreciate knowing that Daniel Winkler & his wife are as nice as they come! Just wonderful people! I got to first meet them in 2001 if memory serves me correctly. When I was 22, I was working in my favorite place to spend to much money, Nordic Knives, when they were in Solvang California; they later moved to Boise Idaho, where they still have a wonderful shop. They are authorized dealers of Winkler Knives, Randall Knives, & Chris Reeve Knives, as well as many great brands, and they have one of the best selections of Custom knives, from the best knife makers in the world. They had an annual knife show with 60 of the best makers in the world, one of them was Daniel Winkler. I couldn’t speak highly enough of him & his wife, as well as Dave Harvey & his wife who own Nordic Knives. It’s easy to do, so if you find something you can’t live without on their website, tell them Nick sent you their way and asked you to give his greetings to them. Sorry for the ramble, but I thought you might enjoy knowing that Daniel Winkler makes knives almost as nice as he is. Thank you for the great video. Best wishes to you and your family’s gentlemen.✌️🇺🇸

[@RolandoEstocada]

@TheGoldenBear79 thank you Nick! I’ve been purchasing from Dave Harvey for YEARS - my entire Randall collection is from Nordic! I’ll make sure to send your regards to Daniel and Karen. I plan to visit them (my first time) this fall. 🙏🏽🔥👊🏽

​@@RolandoEstocadais this the same tomahawk thats in the show the terminal list ?

[@RolandoEstocada]

@lobo-uh2tb Yes. 😊

[@destitute8493]

How much does it weigh? For info: Canne de combat: French martial art employing canes or sticks. The front spike has another important function. Because the top of the axe is smooth and relatively broad, a glancing blow on an opponent can result in the axe rebounding toward the wielder, UNLESS there is a spike that catches on the opponent. Special forces operators would be better served carrying a Paratech TiTAN Crash Axe or Biel Tool. They do everything the tomahawk does, plus they breech doors, cut through sheet metal, etc. Weight is 3 pounds.

[@RolandoEstocada]

I use canne de combat biomechanics for the tomahawk. Yes I’m aware they use sport specific canes for it - I’m trained in Canne De Combat (can’t do the full technique in an NYC apartment). The RnD was designed specifically for SEAL team 6 so I imagine it suits their needs. A good double duty is the RMJ shrike used by US Marines. 🙏🏽🔥👊🏽

[@barrylafreniere8001]

Enjoying the videos. I have the Winkler combat axe. The thing is a work of art in a hard use tool sort of way. I call it the Master Key or the Knock Knock. Hoping to visit Winkler Actual this summer. Also hope to see some more basic break downs of how to use the axe. Harder to follow without the background. Thanks!!

[@RolandoEstocada]

Glad you’re enjoying it! You just gave me a great idea - episodes on the basic handling/strategic breakdown of the Winkler Tomahawk. 🙏🏽🔥👊🏽

[@barrylafreniere8001]

@@RolandoEstocadaThat would be great! I’ll stay tuned. 👍

[@sixxfreak58]

Rolando ... From a pure H2H perspective, what are the significant advantages/disadvantages of the compact Sayoc vs the full size model? I have owned two Winkler non-RnD hawks in the past and both were the gold standards in tomahawk quality and functionality. Thank you as always for an outstanding video.

[@RolandoEstocada]

Hi Mindy: I appreciate your engagement with the channel and content. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 I made a video of it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b564kmeFrtp6ms0si=pNuJInx8J7AN8i_7 Feel free to email me with questions at [e-mail].

[@sixxfreak58]

@@RolandoEstocada Just finished watching it. Excellent content as always. Apologies for the repetitive inquiry!

[@RolandoEstocada]

@sixxfreak58 thank you and on the contrary I much prefer and encourage inquiry. There is a lot of ground to be covered and I’m happy to be a resource for all of my subscribers.

[@requiscatinpace7392]

What is the advantage of the front spike? Does it reduce adaptability of the tomahawk as in the military the main use isn’t H2H combat? Thanks great channel.

[@RolandoEstocada]

It actually increases it - because it functions as a karambit as well as a puncturing tool. Here’s my video covering this specific feature of the RnD. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIPPopyLqa-pZtksi=9pWtJ7h4qsuBxvdJ

[@JosephAllen-d2e]

The sword has a pretty big reach advantage. What about the bowies? Where did you get them. What is their make/model?

[@RolandoEstocada]

Filipino Swords are VERY formidable and battle-tested! The bowies are custom from the forge of the late and legendary Bill Bagwell. He, along with Master at Arms James Keating, is the main proponent of what is now the modern Bowie Combatives movement.

[@PeterDixon734]

Where can I learn these techniques/concepts?

[@RolandoEstocada]

I would try to find a Sayoc Kali instructor, if you are looking to learn that specific methodology. If you want to learn the broader methodology for the tomahawk, email me at [e-mail].

Great breakdown!

[@craftysince87]

[@RolandoEstocada]

Thank you! Stay tuned - more videos to come! Yes. That’s how popular they are.

[@vicholm1000]

May I ask what the meaning of “R&D” is? Thanks.. looking forward to ur upcoming vidz on this topic. 🪓

[@RolandoEstocada]

I’ve looked and I can only assume what it could mean. And from what I see it reads “RnD” without the ampersand so I’m assuming it is an acronym for something other than “research and development”.

[@vicholm1000]

@@RolandoEstocada was thinking the same..

[@sixxfreak58]

@@RolandoEstocada According to the WK website, the design is a collaborative effort between Daniel Winkler and Rafael Kayanan. I bet the RnD is an acronym for Rafael n Daniel.

[@RolandoEstocada]

That’s what I thought too.
