@gakulon7 жыл бұрын
[Ecchi] Well, a kukri seems much better shaped for chopping. More of the weight is concentrated towards the end and tipped forwards, which would help with chopping. Obviously, you wouldn't use it to fell trees, but I think it would still be pretty useful
@janner20067 жыл бұрын
Is it though? The kukri has a handle so I can imagine that most of the weight is in that handle so you can swing it properly. And sure, it has pretty good wood chopping power, as demonstrated in the video, but that's compared to a sword, right? An axe is literally designed to chop wood since almost all of the weight is distributed to be in the blade, much more than the kukri.

Hey Skal, love your channel! I practice Pekiti Tirsia Kali, which sometimes makes use of the kukri. Many of our kukri feature a small serrated section close to the hilt. My teacher told me that an old tradition of Filipino and Indonesian warriors was that if your blade was drawn and did not taste blood, you must give it some of your own. The serrated edge was added for that purpose. Maybe the developers of FarCry 4 added it to capture some of the traditions of that area of the world, rather than some practical function they thought it might have.

@Dr_V7 жыл бұрын
300$ on a machete? Seriously? My most expansive one was 35$ and it's still in good shape after more than 5 years of intensive use (as a tool, I'm not playing with tatami mats or plastic noodles). This idea that good steel is expansive is more of a commercial myth, it does cost a bit more but we're talking about a few bucks, the rest is just decorations and clever advertising. If you want an expansive toy to brag about it's one thing, but if you just need a good tool for brush clearing, wood chopping or camping you can order a Tramontina for around 30$, it's not fancy but it's strong and useful, big old piece of 1070 steel with a simple and comfortable wooden handle.
@kidthorazine7 жыл бұрын
yeah, this price only makes sense if you look at it from the perspective of a sword collector (and even then it's still overpriced), you can get something that's just as functional for like a tenth of what this costs.
@Dr_V7 жыл бұрын
BTW if you search for a good tool machete avoid "tactical" designs, especially those from Cold Steel, they're too thick, unwieldy and poorly balanced for use as a tool. Also if you're not used to work with a machete don't start with a Kukri or Bolo type, they're harder to control, pick a mid sized (16-18") Latin design.
@Dr_V7 жыл бұрын
Arsalan Anwari: we're talking about different things man. A machete has it's specific uses, if you want to chop some logs an axe is better, but if you need to clear brushes or saplings from a couple of acres of land the machete is far better at it. Also for hiking and camping outdoors the versatile machete can successfully replace the usual knife & axe set, saving weight and space in your backpack. Swords are more expansive because of the much more complex manufacture, they're mostly hand made and require a lot of time and skill, so yes, a good functional sword is often worth it's price. As for chef knives that's mostly advertising as well. Granted that hand made ones require a lot of work, but commercial models are made with industrial equipment and production costs are very low, they're expansive only because of marketing.
@kidthorazine7 жыл бұрын
Swords are also expensive because quality sword reproductions are niche items and the manufacturers can get away with charging that much, that's why for example, you can get a functional katana for $100 and a pretty good one for $300 wereas with a longsword you will be paying at least twice that (probably even more on the low end) Also labor costs vary a lot by location as well, which is why you can find decent south american made machetes for $10 if you look around whereas a US or European one wont even be close to that cheap. It's also why the actual Nepalese manufactured Kukuris are way cheaper than this.

@bujtorm7 жыл бұрын
The most obvious execution move with a kukri from the front is jamming it in the skull. The blade shape, weight and center of mass makes it almost as effective at that ask as a hatchet would be. From behind though, the inner curve of the blade just makes it the best throat slitter there is. Which is why I found the stabbing move in Far Cry ridiculous, when the throat cut was so goddamn obvious with such a weapon.

"the inner curve of the blade just makes it the best throat slitter there is" Not really, the most efficient way to slit someones throat is to stab in from the side right at the jugular vein and push outwards in one smooth motion, dragging the blade across the front of the throat like you see in movies and whatnot takes too long since you have to cut all the way back to the jugular to guarantee a quick kill.

Because flesh has lots of fluids a blade slices and continues as the fluids lubricate. Ballistic gel doesn't have the fluids to lubricate. I've often wondered if you oil your blade how much more if any would it help the blade or arrow penetrate the gel? That seems to me like it would be a more realistic fleshy test.

I can think of a very good use for the saw tooth on the back of the blade. I use a billhook to clear patches of undergrowth when collecting wood for my stove. I find it somewhat tiresome to cut away things like wild rose or poison ivy and then have to rake those pesky vines aside which draws them closer to me, though only briefly. With a saw tooth on the back of such a blade I could push them aside quite easily. That would keep me out of the mess and reduce the chances of getting snagged by thorns, poisoned by the ivy or exposed to more ticks and chiggers. I don't think I want to modify my existing tool, but I may try making a new blade. I do have some old lawn mower blades I want to do something with.

I wouldn't consider it cheating as a very oiled blade is what I prefer out in a swampy area or heavy rain in Florida. That gel gives some serious "cling" or stick to a blade face which in turn harshly dampens a slice or penetration because it essentially grabs the blade. Just wondering 👍

I have one of these. It's truly a superior quality bush tool...but not really designed for combat, per se. Overall, that design and the Austrian steel performs very well, (but I've always found that for ourdoor bush tools, forged high carbon tool steel is the best for edge retention). But the fact that this steel won't rust away in a damp or salt air environment is a huge advantage. So, I gave it an 9 out of 10 overall - (the only potential failure mode may occur in the handle - it can get brittle in cold temperatures).

The handle shape looks like something from Fox Knives, who I believe makes the Parang that the machete in Far Cry 3 was based on.

4:52 you’re putting in very strong hits but the stick is bouncing. If you rest it on a stump it will cut faster. Use the weight of the blade and swing it more like a blacksmiths hammer.

I have now been using the KS, shorter model for about 2 years. Good tool for woods when you got a smaller blade with you, feels like a weapon and acts like a tool.

Can you test the "REGULUS KNIFE F64"? It is an very affordable knife which interests me, but there is no evaluation on Amazon, and I have no idea, if it would be a shitty buy for this price. It would be very kind, when you could test some more low price knifes in general. And it would be even better, if they were legal to carry in Germany (guess where I come from). Thanks for your attention! :)
