Milwaukee tradesman knife hard use test with surprising outcome

[@BassMaster.454]

I think this knife is so strong because its not worried about edge retention or fance handle scales. If I ever see them in stock i would buy one and make a leather sheath for it.

[@mattnobrega6621]

Nice little $15 knife. Milwaukee has their name on the line so they want anything with their name on it to be tough as well as affordable. Great success! I really want to get the Milwaukee duct knife. It's $20, and I saw another youtuber review and tested it with good results as well 😏👍

[@singingtoad]

I think your testing methods are fair and consistent, which is what matters most in my opinion in order to determine results. There are some channels who go crazy with their testing methods, doing absolute destruction tests that break every knife they test. Granted, I consider that to be "entertainment" rather than educational. Most people aren't using their knives to that level of abuse. As far as being a "safety sally" is concerned, like you I also wear gloves when doing daft things with my knives. However, that's more because I have terrible hand-eye-coordination and I'm more likely to harm myself than damage the knife...lol 🤣Anyway, I'm rambling again so I must digress. I watch all your videos start to finish and I think you're spot on with your commentary. Thanks and Cheers!

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

Thank you. I’ve been enjoying these hard use tests.

[@wyndy1879]

The fact is I can burn thru about 20 of these before I end up getting close to the price of other knives you recommend as "quality". For a utilitarian device, it's pretty damn good

[@AlanRubin-p9x]

Thanks for this test. Most appreciated. Alan

[@dmatz1999]

Thank you sir for the video! Just ordered mine it'll be here in a few days!

[@Surv1ve_Thrive]

@11:55 "tip hasn't grown back yet" 🙂👍🇬🇧

[@LovelyBaseball-ex1zn]

That knife is not made to be bat on like that. That's what a axle is made to do.

[@Surv1ve_Thrive]

@@LovelyBaseball-ex1zn think you mean 'beat on' and 'axe'. I get you and agree. But these are interesting tests. Bit of fun and science and help ensure manufacturers make decent products! 👌

[@QuantumPyrite_88.9]

8 Cr Mov is Chinese stainless steel which has a steel chemistry close to Japanese AUS 8. A decent steel if properly heat treated. I'm impressed with your results. Thanks for sharing and all the best.

[@WhatsthePOINT_EDC]

Hell yea Brother! Here to the end and thanks for the Shoutout!👊

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

😍😘

[@chriss1011]

That's the type of knife you'll find in a old toolbox with the tip twisted off and for some reason whoever sharpened it decided to grind the whole side of the blade

[@Wastelandman7000]

I have the Milwaukee duct knife which is similarly constructed, so I wasn't very surprised. I'll have to grab me one.

[@briangarrett710]

Milwaukee had no clue what they made here.. it’s a wonderful knife for all uses and it throws like a dream it’s a wood magnet. It sticks like tape I’m telling ya

[@bigjsknives]

No that is a hard used test!!! Can't believe it was still getting thru the paper a bit after that, thanks to ole Frank for recommending this!!!

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

It did pretty good.

[@bighill5680]

For the price, it's hard to beat.

[@DanielA-nl9nv]

The drop test shows how "grippy" the tip is. If it sticks and holds it's weight, especially at a slight angle, that'll penetrate some shit.

[@pa1adin111]

That was impressive. Milwaukee has a "splitting" axe. There is I believe one review on KZbin. I'd be really interested to see you review it.

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

Interesting. I’ll look into that

[@WhatsthePOINT_EDC]

Hell yea man! Let’s see the Milwaukee splitting axe!🔥🪓

[@vanceneal3934]

That knife for price has already passed the test,no doubt be good work knife,etc,

[@destinytroll1374]

For a knife that's only $15 it does great job the narration at the beginning almost made me put away is bad guy just comes off as a snob. I should probably watch some more videos though could just be a bad first impression. Over all the test was pretty good

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

What part made me seem like a snob? And thank you

[@MyPalJimbo]

​@@peterbiltknifeguysaying it was a piece of junk just because it's low cost

[@vinceparke5740]

I just bought one today for pistachios mostly, maybe (and I had an Ace coupon). But a knife test should be about the edge. My ex father in law sharpened restaurant knives on a 3 foot wet wheel. Wicked sharp. I would not expect any knife to stand up to being hammered on. However, let's see how sharp a knife is after dressing a deer.

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

Well all knives get dull. A sharp broken knife is worthless.

[@tgsgardenmaintenance4627]

Considering your plan was destroy it, you failed. For the price, it looks well worth the money!

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

You are correct. It handled it extremely well

[@random_julian]

In Romania it is almost the three time the price more expensive, because we are stupid buyers. :) very good knife,

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

Lol. That’s not good

[@KenS826]

Started the video calling it a piece of crap, ended the video with a million dollar endorsement LOL.

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

Lol. Right. I wasn’t expecting it to be good

[@dodgeit3014]

I’m pretty shocked how well it did.

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

I was too

[@mikecurtis2585]

Very nice great knife for what they costs!

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

It sure is

[@marcomontesdeoca7232]

I am heading to home Depot right now😅

[@marksaint2936]

Don't question the dbad!

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

Lol

[@cliffordodel]

Some of this stuff is like trying to tow a house with a bicycle. That knife wasn't built to write letters on a piece of paper.

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

So what you’re saying is you don’t understand the purpose of the test?

[@LovelyBaseball-ex1zn]

That knife 🔪 took a beating and kept on working

[@713jcfilmz7]

"Go be a communist somewhere else" 😂😂😂

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

🤣👍

[@KnivesSurvival]

Good knife for the price

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

It really is

[@RoyalEmpressTree]

I don't know. The stab wood and lay it over test is kind of like use it as a screwdriver test. Just don't use my knives that way.

[@aliveandkicking1977]

👍

[@HerbysHanz]

Hello. Nice piece of junk. May I have it? 🙏

[@danmayes9439]

That was only 9 stabs in the filing cabinet 😅

[@stelthy100]

ya cant beat it for a 15.00 knife

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

Nope

[@ChrisCox-lk2wm]

It would of been smarter to hold the knife on the log. And beat the split log onto the blade. Instead of beating the blade intl the split log. Try that next time save your knife.

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

Not trying to save the knife. Trying to test the knife

[@1joshjosh1]

F+++ it, I'm buying 1

[@bobbybuttry6588]

For $15 knife its tough enough

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

It’s tuff as nails

[@ricardoa6186]

No es especialmente bueno,la punta se dobla facil

[@bigdoc2985]

Love the knife, but can’t stand the guy using it.

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

Cool story. You don’t have watch his stuff. Welcome to America 👌🏼👍🏻

[@WhatsthePOINT_EDC]

First!

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

Tenth lol

[@4ager505]

So you spent 20 minutes proving this little knife is a great knife for $15-$30, but a poor substitute for a felling ax or splitting maul. No surprises there! Question (to anyone) from someone who has spent most of a lifetime outdoors...why is the practice of batoning so popular lately? Wood and other fuel resources is commonly available in the wild in all diameters and sizes suitable for most camping requirements. Heavier sections can often be split by other methods such as impact on hard surfaces, improvised mauls and wedges, etc. Why risk damaging a valuable resource (knife) in such an activity. I often wonder how Native Americans and ancient populations around the world managed to thrive with what must have been a very limited capacity to baton wood. Stone and obsidian knives with fine cutting capabilities would probably fail miserably in a batoning contest. Others are welcome to ponder this question and reply if inclined...but as for me, I'm heading down to homecenter now because their website says they have 6 of these in stock. That ought to be enough to get me started...these would also make great gifts. Hope they can get more back in stock soon.

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

Nobody is telling anyone to do that to a knife. People on KZbin usually do it to show how strong “or not” a knife is and can be. It gives people confidence in the product being tested. I bet you’ve never asked the question on why people don’t car crash tests to see how it reacts right???? When you see one do you say “why would you do that? I would never crash my car” I doubt it. I think you’re watching these videos with the wrong thoughts in mind. Look at it as we beat the knife too give you confidence in the product and show its capabilities so you don’t have to find out the hard way when you’re knife might be your lifeline

[@4ager505]

@@peterbiltknifeguy Hardly a direct comparison...car crashes are random occurrences which may befall you, no matter how hard you strive to avoid them. Beating a small knife through a large piece of twisty grain hardwood with a knot is a deliberate act. That would explain my higher interest in the former, and no interest in the latter. If you are in a situation where you knife is your lifeline, it should be used wisely...not put through meaningless torture tests...

[@4ager505]

@@peterbiltknifeguy I forgot to tell you...thanks for the review on this product..your overall results were very beneficial to me...👍

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

@@4ager505 you missed the point again. It’s to give people confidence “OR NOT” in the product 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ come on. It’s not that hard of a concept to understand. Not all knives are built the same. And yes. It’s just like a car crash test. It gives consumers confidence in the vehicle. That’s why the publish the ratings

Little narcissism much.

JOE X does a more hardcore testing..

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

He also tries to make everything fail. Literally breaking everything. How is that real world testing? I can break knives on purpose too. What does that prove?

[@tikkidaddy]

If I want to see that kind of testing, just go stand in the emergency room on a Saturday afternoon. He's an "entertainer" who's going to end up in a hospital one day, he's not proving anything except all steels can be broken. We knew that. I told him to get a Himalayan Imports Chirwa Ang Khola Khukuri with a 13 inch blade. They're warranted as prybars

[@Surv1ve_Thrive]

On Joe X, I find his crazy testing very interesting. Good to know what products are capable of. In my opinion.
