You beat the living shit out of that thing and it just took it in stride. Kind of nuts to see it make it through basically unscathed. This video is a ringing endorsement of the knife. Great job man. I don't even need a fixed blade like this but I want it now just because of how tough it is.

Mora is cheaper and far better than

[@andrewgreen5574]

​@@warlantactical depends on the model. Personally, I'm partial to puukko and Finn knives so a Mora #1 stainless is my daily user. Their garberg is similar to the Swisstech and it runs around $60-80. I have the garberg and can't stand it. I hate the way it fits in the hand, the handle is tall and skinny creating an awkward and uncomfortable handle. The companion runs $16, great cheap knife for cutting and carving not so much for beating on without the risk of splitting the handle.

[@tylertapp131]

The haltbar is a tank too for 10 bucks more

[@singingtoad]

That knife performed very well and is surprisingly tough. Thanks for sharing, take care and Cheers!

[@tennesseesmoky9012]

I’ve carried this Swiss Tech Stahlern for over a year now. This high-value fixed blade is certainly tough enough for every camp task I normally undertake when in the woods. The combination of design and component choices make this knife very usable and durable enough to handle even the roughest conditions. Quality build and a sharp precision tool for the woods. Your testing verifies what many Stahlern owners have been saying for sometime now, this might just be the best value-priced bushcraft knife in the entire market. Simply put, it is a functional knife that cuts well.

@@TheMikeharris7 awesome. This knife surprised me

[@gregritchie9375]

Don’t normally like destruction videos, but having bought the Stählern some time ago and being impressed with it, I wanted to see what you found. You succeeded in confirming for me I spent my $40 well. I was curious as to how the aluminum part of the tang was held on, figuring that would be a weak point. Never tried to take the scales off though. Thanks for doing it for me. I am actually impressed with how they did it. Is it full tang? Not really, but I would call it 98% tang, good enough for me. I understand that the SwissTech Stählern is a Walmart exclusive. I have another Walmart exclusive knife in the Gerber Prodogy fine edge. Another very good knife. I like them both, but somehow the Stählern seems to find myself in my hand more often. A third Walmart knife ts the 11 inch fixed blade, a Buck Reaper knockoff. It is my dedicated battening knife. It has somehow survived almost 4 years now, but after watching your video, it might just find itself being left at home, it appears that the Stählern is more than capable on its own. Thanks again!

Great test. Guess I was wrong about the heat trest, must just be the Aus8 because mine seems to need sharpening a bit more than it should. I was surprised to see it take that much of a bend and stay straight. Although I don't like the boxy handle on it, now I know I can depend on it if I have to.

[@peterbiltknifeguy]

I was shocked too

[@TheRealSwampOperator2]

Aus 8 isn't some super steel. It's not gonna hold an edge like crowbar. But it will resharpen easily. Even on the edge of a car window. And it will hold a working edge for a respectable amount of time. I have a 4 way fingernail file, about as thick as a credit card. It'll touch that blade up proper. Not so much with my benchmade bushcraft 😂

So I watched another video on this and the guy made a comment about the aluminum spacer which makes a little sense. He said they may have done it to bring the blade balance a little forward towards the tip. But also I know Swiss Tech uses the anodized aluminum for more of a eye catcher too. They may have unknowingly balanced the blade better. Either way, I just bought one the other day because a friend of mine pointed it out while we were buying fishing gear. I haven't used it yet but I'm eager to after your test!

Just my first impression about the aluminum lanyard hole,, well,, even if you polish steel as it starts to wear out the carbides will be exposed, and the steel will wear the lanyard much more quickly than aluminum would. So besides the flashy color (for better visibility) ,, I think an aluminum hole would make for a much better lifetime for the lanyard, and that one time you didn't know how fast it was wearing might be that one time you drop the knife or worse, lose it.

I'm gonna say something a tad bit controversial but it's my opinion. I...... recommend this over the Gerber Strongarm. Reason I say that is this thing is a tank and it sits at 10 dollars below the ORIGINAL Strongarm price which has jumped from being 50 bucks to freaking 90. While this can be had for 40 bucks and after seeing you wrench on it this thing is beefy. Also correct me if I'm wrong but looking at specs it seems that AUS-8 steel is a tad better than 420HC but that could be chalked up to personal preference and the manufacturer of the steel.
