Victorinox Tips & Tricks (20/40) - How to split wood with the saw of your SAK

[@bushcraftnorthof6012]

Too cool. How could somebody thumbs down this?!?! Thanks for bringing it to us all.

[@FelixImmler]

Thank you so much!!!

[@45auto]

Never would have thought of the saw method. Once more you have increased my knowledge base. Thanks!

[@FelixImmler]

Your comment makes me happy! Thanks a lot...

[@joaniemckinney970]

I am telling all my friends and family that they need to watch your great informative videos! I love the amazing info and your happiness level!!!

[@FelixImmler]

Thank you so much for your great support! Greetings from Switzerland

[@johnnygunz2300]

dang dude... nearly every vid is great. This tip i thought... "naw... this ain't going to work" but you hit another home run!!! Definitely going to give this one a try!

[@FelixImmler]

Thank you very much Johnny!

[@rhinooningo2865]

The second technique is one of the slickest woodcraft tricks I've ever seen. BRAVO!

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks a lot for this compliment!

[@paulathomas4944]

What a brilliant technique Felix :) It proves that knowledge is more important than a huge knife :)

[@FelixImmler]

I agree! Thank you and greetings from 🇨🇭

[@johnnygunz2300]

Well said Paula... i was one of those huge knife guys but i've since seen the light (due to Felix along with a few other folks and also being forced to live in NYC for a while which has very restrictive knife laws). I'm totally rocking the SAK dad style.... works great for nearly everything and you can wipe it out at the park or wherever while with your kids and not get looked at like you are rambo.

[@SmithWesson90]

Felix your the 👑 of Victorinox SAK You have taught me so much. I never leave home without my 🇨🇭 Field master. Thank you for all your lessons. ✌

[@FelixImmler]

Your comment makes me happy. Thanks a lot!

[@jeffnotti9932]

Felix.. you have a very very good understanding of wood and it's properties. When you add your innovative improvisational use of the SAK to you your advanced knowledge of wood, you get an incredible ability ... it is great that you teach us all those things ... well done my friend J

[@FelixImmler]

Dear Jeff. Your comment makes me happy!! Thank you!

[@jgbsweeper7325]

This one looked like a magic trick. I had some doubts about how well it would work. I had to go outside and try it right away and it worked. I would have never thought of this one. It is easier or harder depending on what type of wood you have. The very hard dense wood was much more difficult to split using this method and the softer wood was easier to split using this method. Thanks !!!

[@FelixImmler]

I am glad that it worked for you!

[@kidbach]

I got happy when I "saw" the new topic. Thanks for sharing, Dr. SAK.

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks a lot my friend!!

Hallo Felix, ich habe jetzt ein paar KZbin Videos hintereinander angeschaut und sie an meine Enkel verlinkt auf Wathsapp. Sie haben von mir Schweizer Taschenmesser bekommen, und benutzen die hauptsächlich, um ihr Obst unterwegs zu schneiden. Ich mit meinen 72 Jahren benutze es vielseitiger. Du erklärst das prima!!! Danke! Bleib behütet, Grüßle Gunde

[@FelixImmler]

Vielen Dank Gunde, dein Kommentar freut mich sehr!

Love your wideos! Never had any idea that my SAK can be so wersatile. I'm halfway through your playlist of tricks and tips wideos, and I've learned so much from you. Thank you wery much!

[@ShirHac]

This trick is worth far more than all of those batoning-videos on the net together!

[@Владимир35-м4г]

Вы очень позитивный человек Феликс! Приятно смотреть ваши видео, спасибо вам

[@troymorris4590]

I enjoy your videos. In 1966 I bought a swiss army knife Champion. I took it to Viet Nam with me. It was a very useful tool. I have since then bought one for all my children and grand-children.

[@FelixImmler]

Wowww, what a strong story!!! Thanks a for your comment!

Thank you for an excellent technique! The second way was better. I never want to baton a folding knife; it would be too easy to destroy the knife and/or injure oneself. Again, thanks!☺

[@FelixImmler]

I agree. Thanks for your comment!

I wont baton with a knife. Carry an axe or hatchet.

[@Incandescentiron]

A very valuable tip!

[@mastersolid2000]

I really liked the video, your techniques are great but I have a doubt, can you combine the first technique with the second? I explain myself, instead of hitting the blade, can the saw be used to open a small groove to introduce the wedge? Greetings and thank you very much for the video. Me gustó mucho el video, tus técnicas son geniales pero me ha quedado una duda, ¿se puede combinar la primera tpecnica con la segunda? Me explico, en lugar de golpear la hoja ¿se puede usar la sierra para abrir un pequeño surco para introducir la cuña? Saludos y muchas gracias por el video.

[@paulathomas4944]

I've seen another KZbinr do just that. You just need to make sure the saw cut is deep enough.

Super Tipps! 👍 Viele sagen, ein Victorinox wäre ein gutes Backup Messer; mein Empfinden ist genau anders herum. Wenn ich im Wald unterwegs bin, habe ich das Schweizer Messer nahezu die ganze Zeit in der Hand. Es ist für mich aufgrund seiner Vielseitigkeit ein "Hauptmesser". Meine Backup für gröbere Aufgaben ist ein Mora Robust; wiegt wenig, super Handlage, ist legal, stabil, preisgünstig und nahezu unzerstörbar.

[@FelixImmler]

Das würde ich so unterschreiben!!
