[@WillEDC]

Definitely accurate

[@thomashowardmd247]

Surprised to see the Huusk samurai/viking knife didn't make the list.

[@macmurfy2jka]

I think I have come down on my own 5 knives. I started with knives that I use the most and give me the most joy to use. They essential break down to EDC utility folder/multitool, large EDC folder, Heavy duty pairing/utility knife, Chef's knife, BIG Camp knife/meat slicer. All of them, I would be comfortable in the kitchen, around the house, in the field or in the bush. Here they are: 1. Leatherman Sidekick Modified serrated knife into awl 2. Spyderco Military 3. Cold Steel Secret Edge 4. V'nox 8" Classic Chef Knife 5. Esee Junglas, logo etched, blade stripped and forced patina. If i have any knife in my pocket, it is often the first two, with the addition of the Spyderco Watu. I love that knife, but it couldn't make the list due to the needing the Leatherman more. I use the Leatherman camping, mountain climbing, ski touring, cycling, when traveling for work. Very versatile and with the right selection of tools once I modified an awl into it. For the big EDC folder, it was between the Spyderco S35VN Resilience or the Military. Both are big and robust with long handle and slicey blades. I bought the Military as an upgrade of the G10 Resilience, and don't own the S35VN one, so it won. When I did one knife challenges in the past, the Cold Steel ended up as my favorite knife for that. It food prep's surprisingly well, because it chops on cuttin boards really well. The heel of the blade, all the way to the tip can be presented to the cutting board along with having a great tip for pairing. And, beyond that it is robust enough for any reasonable utility work. It also is my favorite knife to carve soft woods, soap, and pumpkins with. For me it is a real joy to use. All I really wish would for it to be made of better steel. That V'nox chef knife is the most joy to use of any of the knives on this list. Great weight balance and edge profile along with a robust spine, elegant taper, slicey grind and very ergo handle. Being the first chef's knife that I held and said, "Wow, I like this!" if found mine disused with serious nicks and a broken tip. I fixed that puppy up and made a sheath for it and haven't looked back. As the Junglas is already most of the way to a European Butcher's knife (think Mercer BPX 10" European Butcher Knife), and because it is nice and robust with it's primary intent being as a light survival Machete, this one was an easy choice. This would also be my Fighting knife, if it ever came to that. I did consider a 12-14'' butcher's machete/ bolo for this, but figured that something a bit shorter would be handier overall.

[@PerryNeium]

If I had to pick 5 knife-tubers to watch for the rest of my life you and DBK would both make the list.

[@kelleyhogan7063]

I used to love DBK when they were just two young lads arseing about giving their opinion on knifes they actually tested (that’s still pretty much the format). But since they have become heavily sponsored and sell their own line of products, I feel it’s lost its charm a little and I am more sceptical of their reviews.

[@Darrenski]

Fairbairn/Sykes (not sure I've spelled that right, but who cares) had the philosophy that a combat knife should be bare shiny metal, despite the fact it doesn't have any anti reflection properties because they believed seeing raw steel in a knife made it psychologically more intimidating, thus meaning you're less likely to have to actually use it. Also, as they were intended mostly for taking out sentry guards, you'd ideally want not only want your knife to not be seen but also yourself. Meaning they'd only find out (if they ever did) that it was reflective as it was de-coring their Adam's apple. So although the stealth ningas out there (and they seem to be a growing number, those guys who like to try out a knife by attacking a tree and dealing several fast fatal slashes) I think I'd personally go with the 'darn that shiny knife sure looks sharp and hurty so let's run away' than having to perform a dozen left and right slicing strikes. I have a feeling someone might have put a bullet in my head by then.

[@warrenruppart8567]

Awesome video! These kinds of videos are always fun thought experiments.

[@dennisleighton2812]

🤣😂 My selection: 1. Victorinox pocket knife (choice as yet unmade), possibly a Ranger grip 79. EDC 2. V'nox Venture pro system, which doubles as a mid size utility knife in the kitchen. 3. Cold Steel Trail Master (San Mai III version - I own one) - versatile Large knife for heavy work. 4. Cold Steel SRK (in CPM_3V) sabre grind version. Every day belt carry outdoors. 5. Scan Pan 8in chef's knife - all-rounder. [Note: I'd ALWAYS have a Silky saw (either a Gomboy or Bigboy, depending), and I'd probably cheat when the judges weren't looking and sneak in a little V'nox 3in paring knife!] 😉 Cheers mate!

[@jamesruth100]

Other than the fact that you own it already, is there any reason you're opting for the san mai trail master over the 3v?

[@dennisleighton2812]

@@jamesruth100 The main reason (as far as my information goes) is that my San Mai was made in Japan, and this was my main reason. It's expensive as it is hand-made, to maximise on the difficult convex ground blade ( like that of the Falkniven Modern Bowie from the same source). Build quality is truly outstanding. I've seen several videos about the 3V bladed TMs made in Taiwan and there is a marked difference in build quality, although it seems to be cheaper, from what I can see. The really tough edge means that in-field sharpening will not be required, and when it does will be quite a job. I cannot ascertain whether the TM San Mai is still being made in Japan, but I suspect not.

[@jamesruth100]

@@dennisleighton2812 "I cannot ascertain whether the TM San Mai is still being made in Japan, but I suspect not." According to the coldsteel website: "This model features VG-1 San Mai III steel and is hand-made in limited edition in Taiwan." so no, it doesn't seem like they're being produced in Japan anymore. While I'm sure the Japanese san mai was a higher fit and finish than the 3v, who knows now that they're both made in Taiwan; it might be that the quality gap between them has narrowed. Still, I can understand the logic you were going with now; convex vs flat is one of those age old debates that gets people fired up, but locking in higher craftsmanship is something I can definitely agree with.

[@Abby_Normal_1969]

I can see you on the Stretch, particularly the K390 one. Not my favorite Spyderco, but definitely in my top ten. MBK Fieldtrekker would be my work horse fixed blade. I would go Bark River Aurora for the survival knife.

[@insanogeddon]

I wouldn't last a week without Victorinox scissors.

[@ramonbmovies]

[@broncoridesagain3176]

I can't find it either - plenty of AD initialed knives but all different to the vid.

[@wardprocter2371]

Which one will you use to fillet a fish or debone a rib roast? I’m 60 years old and haven’t found a need or use for a giant tactical fighting knife yet. I think a good sharp machete would fill that role if I ever needed it. And be a lot more useful.

[@contrabassbob]

My take- What I own- Vic Alox Bantam (wallet carry as a backup) Vic Pioneer, edc knife, have cut a lot of dinners with it I don't own these but have similar sized Ontarios (discontinued)- Becker BK16, food prep and general use Esee Junglas 2, really want one over the regular Junglas, for everything else #5-a mid sized Silky saw, I do love my tomahawks but with a J2 they're perhaps superfluous

[@nirfz]

If it's only 5 knives for the rest of your life, i think wihotut giving it too much thought, from those i already own i would choose: 1. a normal table knife or a Victorinox "tomato knife". Imagine you pull any of the knives you chose out in a restaurant to eat. (a restaurant that isn't a steak house) 2. one of the "no name Solingen made" kitchen knives that is thin enough but long enough for real kitchen use. 3. a SAK as my EDC (i wouldn't want to relearn) 4. i think the Lionsteel M5 in CPM3V as the fancy everything outdoor knife. (it is the one with the most expensive steel i own) 5. The Glock field knife (i used it to help get "misguided" arrows out of wood in archery, but it can be used for other things and it is light.)

[@daeholm]

Don't sell your skills short Pete. I bet you could make a radish rosette even with that Cold Steel bowie

[@tacticalcenter8658]

That dbk intro is real

[@gunfun7772]

I have multiple pocketknifes that I like but I just simply grab the spyderco pm2 almost every time. If I want to go smaller I grab the urban edc baby barlow. If it's cold/wet I grab the Bradford guardian 3.5 fixie. Also I just love the way that knife sits in my hands. But it's, for dutch people, intimidating to see someone carry a fixed blade especially in a tactical looking kydex sheath.

[@J_CHE_H]

Also a big fan of the DBK boys on Thursdays!! An interesting (and oft amusing) slant on their latest Top 5 offering! A great watch!

[@1980JPA]

Push dagger is always the answer for those of us that are less trained concerning defense with a blade. And believe me, when seen, it's definitely scary enough. Push dagger makes anyone think twice while still being able to be used effectively with basic punching, which most people can handle.

[@mikafoxx2717]

Except that they're illegal in many places where a regular dagger would be.. a legal fixed blade knife. I think push daggers often fall under brass knuckles type weapons.

[@SharpLove]

From my collection it would be: North Arm Alder for the kitchen North Arm Skaha 2 for the lightweight EDC Quiet Carry Waypoint for wet environments Spyderco UKPK for traveling and the Koenig Arius for the fidget factor.

[@Sgreubel]

Great, fun video! Your choices appear well thought out. But I am somewhat surprised that you didn't include a multi-tool. If I ever found myself in a situation where I needed to do bushcraft to survive, none of these knives would do it alone. Speaking of 'Alone', almost every contestant brings a multi-tool. There is probably a reason for that. The Surge would be on my list.

[@andrewhernandez9674]

I think I'm most impressed he managed to acquire a TRC Apocalypse. I've never seen one in stock anywhere.

[@mikafoxx2717]

For me, at least from what I have, would be a Mora companion stainless for bushcraft and carving and such, an 8" thin chef knife for home use, an opinel 10-11 inox for outdoors food prep, and thats Pretty much it honestly, besides maybe a civivi liner elementum folder perhaps, though maybe not the most durable knife long term like a buck would be with brass bushings and lockback. Ideally I'd have some magnacut pukko or thinner ground fixed blade knife. For discouraging getting attacked, you want long and pointy, like a dagger, which optionally can be tied to a pole for hunting, or something. As the saying goes, nobody wins in a knife fight. You want distance.

[@PerIncommodusVeritas]

My Choice: 1. Spyderco PM2 Salt Magnacut 2. Fallkniven F1x Elmax 3. CS SRK 3v 4. Old Cheef Kitchen knife 5. CS Trailmaster 3v and Leatherman Charge TTI plus with bitextender and bit kit. 😈 And what will you, the debater, choose? 🤔

5 knives for the whole life but it means that literally any knife is game Well thats impossible since most people will chose these as irreplacable items: Butterknife Small Kitchen Knife Large Chefs knife so you are really just chosing 2 knives for the rest of your life and thats most likely going to be a pocket folder and a Large Fixed Fighting/Bushcraft knife, and thats considering that you are limited to a single Knife and not a Type of knife. When making a challenge people should really specify the rules.

[@macmurfy2jka]

I would argue that the butter knife can be replace in daily use with a narrow spatula like one for icing cakes, but otherwise agree with your sentiment. I essentially broke it down to: Leatherman Tactical Pocket folder pairing/utility knife (fixed) large kitchen knife extra large kitchen knife/camp knife

[@mikafoxx2717]

Ain't that the truth! Few people really need more than a Mora. Fixed blades are as fast as a folder, if less convenient to carry, but way more trustworthy and comfortable for long and hard use. I just wish it was a more pukko style grind and a better steel like 14c27n at 60-62 HRC, not 12c27m at 56-58. Or even better, MagnaCut at 62, if cost no object in a single knife. Too thick or too big and you lose functionality in a general use knife, get a wedge for firewood batoning and a thin 6-8" kitchen knife for slicey stuff.

Hey Pete, I really enjoyed that video. I like your choices, and it was great to hear your rationale for the knives you chose as well as to see and hear about your "runners up". I also really like the Spyderco Stretch, but I would probably go for the Benchmade Adamas or Spyderco PM2/Manix 2/Shaman (I can never decide which knife I prefer from these three Spyderco's!). Beautiful custom belt knife you have there; I would probably go for the TOPS Brakimo or Lion Steel T5. I agree with the BK 9 as a survival knife! I don't have one yet, but it's on the list! My kitchen knives are a budget Cuisinart Knife set my wife picked out - probably from Amazon. She won't let me get the kitchen knives I would want, which would probably be the Benchmade Kitchen knives. Self-Defense - Awesome Cold Steel Bowie knife! I think I would go with a Karambit, such as the Emerson Super Karambit, Spyderco Karahawk or Lion Steel L.E. One. I do agree with you though about trying to rely on the scare tactic more than actually getting into a fight, so a large, shiny fighting knife is a good idea!
