Zombie Tools Vakra Kukri Review and Insane Tactical Chopping Test

[@semdijkstra9784]

My two favourite things....advanced knife bro and zombie tools

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Thanks man!

[@pangkoy1086]

The sense of humor got me here. Subscribed.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Thanks man!

[@raedien]

I'm a friend of the ZT sheath maker! They are awesome and I made sure to get this video to them and recommend your channel. They actually make their own knives now so we should get you together for a review!

[@croom332]

I buy one of her leather sheaths for every ZT I own, I can't stand kydex for blades that big lol

[@Outcaste153]

long and thick two words I've never heard said to me, I now have to buy this thing. Great video.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Ha ha!

[@BJOlson]

First time I've watched one of your vids. Awesome style. Not over dramatic or overly-comedic. Keep up the awesome work! (new sub)

[@christopher_lp]

This was, without a doubt, the most insane tactical chopping test I've ever seen. GJ (good job)!

[@YesterdayMeetsToday]

These dudes blades make Cold Steel look like the JV of zombie weapons. The look of their website alone makes me wanna drop 300 hundy on another large blade I will never use. Hopefully, you get a chance to review some of their other stuff. Rock on Knife Bro!

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

I know! So many insane weapons for plant combat!

[@cobraglatiator]

would you happen to have any use for a gladius? i'd like to see a review of their legionnaire blade. and, while i may have just discovered this channel,i seem to have spotted a trend, in an effort to fit in, egh ehm.. "tang". did it work? am i cool now?

[@tikkidaddy]

Try the CS GHURKHA KHUKURI in carbon steel...its ok to be wrong

[@StyrofoamCancer]

I love knives, but hate knife bros. However, an ~advanced~ knife bro? I think I can get behind that. Great video, I appreciate your levity and disinterest in looking and/or acting like some kind of tacticool operator type. I came here from my buddy who works at ZT who linked your video, and didn't expect to actually find a great knife reviewer. You earned a subscriber dude, keep it up!

[@TheCosmicTeapot]

Love your channel. I doesn't get nearly enough love considering the unique tone compared with other blade review channels. I'm a fan of the apathetic "no fucks to give" style. Other channels take themselves far too seriously. With that in mind, you should just rename the standard knife terminology in your reviews. Start calling a "tang" a "taint" like you don't even realise that's not what it's called. I'd watch a review of a full taint knife.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Everybody is an expert on the internet. I thought it was about time an complete idiot started reviewing things! Thanks man!

[@eastman1379]

AdvancedKnifeBro, you call yourself an "idiot", but I think most of your viewers see you as a really smart guy. An idiot couldn't make the kind of satirical content that you do. Loved this video too. Keep on knifebroing!

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Thanks man!

[@TheCosmicTeapot]

Also, in keeping with the sexual innuendo used when measuring a knife's dimensions, please refer to the width as it's "girth". Thank you.

[@richardwolf3754]

I love your humor. The reviews are really good. Thanks

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Thanks man!

[@Apoc_Bone_Daddy]

Well..... Guess you got a new subscriber... I enjoy your calm, collected attitude and that sly humor Good video, will look forward to more

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Thanks man!

[@skyrausch2583]

badass loved the slowmo with waltzing music!

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

I'm running out of music!

[@BornIn1500]

Another quality vid. Thanks. Deserves way more views.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

I included a few buzzwords in the title!

[@BornIn1500]

ZOMBIE.... TACTICAL.... INSANE!

[@ibanez7412]

I checked out the site and found a video in which they chop an engin cover, a tv and a concrete block with one of their tools, very cool and tough choppers they make!! Thanks for the video! Funny as always!

[@robadams2274]

Badass. I have two ZT's and I love em. One of your best videos yet.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Which ones?

[@robadams2274]

I have the Mauler and the Para Bellum. If I ever stop blowing money on my other hobbies, I will get one of their swords as well. I love the company.

[@benm1324]

The right channel to review Zombie Tools!! I want some.. Tang

[@trikstari7687]

"Standard non-apocalyptic moisture". Of all the phrases I never expected to encounter...

[@SteveKluver]

Thanks, Zombie Killer Bro! I can't believe, that you let *everyone* watch you whack your wood! Who knew? That when you bought that property. That you would get so much wood to chop, *every, damn, week!* : - ) A great choice in music. Starting at 05:52 Though not normally my thing. I say, this is a good looking, and well made Vakra Kukri.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

There's so much shit. I think a small tree in my yard is only 20 feet tall. Many I would say are 40-50? I have spent a ton of time scouring KZbin's library for appropriate music. There's not much that I like, or that fits with my videos- but this one works.

[@SteveKluver]

Advanced Knife Bro. I was serious about the music. No sarcasm. Just so we're clear. It really was, a very good choice and worked well.

[@jonNH123]

This review rock my world. Thanks Tactical Advanced Knife Bro!!!!!!!!

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Glad you liked it!

[@timothygrmn]

Thanks for the review Knife Bro! Also, tang.

[@cavedog1279]

Sure is a good thing they put that finger choil on there for the detail work :P Editing was great as always, particularly around the chopping parts. Seems to work well for bamboo.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

THE DETAIL WORK HE SAYS!

[@justinAroy]

Seems like a viable option for edc. I'd love to see some throwing incorporated into the reviews.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

I’ve not tried throwing before- however this one is reportedly throwable!

[@Cal4mity]

every knife is throwable

[@TheCosmicTeapot]

Excellent! We just want to see you fuck it up so we can laugh at you and lie to ourselves that we can do better.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

I like the honesty!

[@CorySee]

@@TheCosmicTeapot It is EXTREMELY hard to hurt this damn blade.

[@charlescollier7217]

For the record, there's a small subset of the KZbin-watching knife community that could spend all day watching people wreck stuff with kukris. And by "small subset" I mean me. Oh, and, "tang."

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Just busting shit up. I think I would like to get paid to chop and cut down shit all day. I mean not every day, but like 1 or 2 days a week.

[@tom_olofsson]

As a member of the "1/4 of a handfull" club I appreciate your humor. "Handle deep in tang" is a classic.

[@kit6357]

Your sarcasm is quite tactical - so sharp you could cut yourself. Big fan of the vids; keep it up.

[@darkencypher]

Awesome review, broski.

[@shadown5757]

I own a vakra and I have to agree it is very versatile, built like a tank, resilient and have an excellent edge retention and the handle is very comfortable.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

I've not sharpened mine yet!

[@justsomeguy3931]

I wish more people did reviews like this

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Thanks!

[@ringingsteel2432]

Amazeballs was a decade ago? Man I’ve still been using phat and rad

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

I'm just guesstimating... I don't research anything.

[@dgray7537]

Good edc for collecting edc Sabenzas and Leeks off unprepared zombies. Looks nice too.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

A average person would loot a sebenza off a corpse and throw it back, because it looked pretty average.

[@EDCwithAaron]

Damn I need to get the zombie tools hookup. Probably the coolest choppers on earth.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Ain't no harm in trying... I did!

[@betterbsure]

your reviews ALWAYS put a big stupid grin on my face, once again great video with some smart humour thrown in for free...it is free isn't it?? Thumbs up!! :))

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

As far as I know it's still free!

[@betterbsure]

Thank goodness for that. 👍😀

[@ebosspt]

That McEnroe era Babolat tape on the handle makes it look like it could double as a squash racquet... Tang. *drink *

[@mikereese15]

[@thomasdolcelli4969]

This guy's humor is great

[@knifenutsdave]

If you enjoy kukris, you should try out one from Himalayan Imports, they're a company that's been around on Blade Forums for probably two decades now. They have them made in Nepal and then bring them over. The neat thing about them (besides the authenticity) is that they have zero convex grinds, in that the edge terminates without a secondary bevel (unlike the Vakra). It makes them chop even better (it's rather axe-like in its grind), and they're about half the price of the Vakra. I've had one for about four or five years and it's really a tank.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

I’ve toyed with getting a good one for a while- just never got around to it. This one works well though- but I’d like to get a few more just to round out my collection. I really love the leg sheath on this one... it’s my first leg sheath and it just feels right.

[@christamu2]

HI blades are no joke. They're awesome.

[@poland_stronk3044]

I like looking for nails with my new axes too. Very calming and relaxing hobby.

[@alexanderbertallo1995]

Great review!

[@michaelmackey976]

proper batoning this time well done . thats a nice chopper . and great job having a weaponized yard. this is the shit that really matters . oh and how much hate do you have to have to dislike this video.....seriously i want someone who hit thumbs down to explain why they did

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

I guess the bad words? The lack of reverence for knives? The tang joke. If we've all learned anything about the internet- whatever it is, some people out there will hate it. That's just a fact. Maybe that's their sole function in the universe?

[@vincef7487]

Hey, WHAT’S THE BLADE TALLNESS??? ...you called it

[@blueeyeddevil9441]

Like your Kukri videos. Do you have any videos where you teach us to sharpen our kukris? Sorry, Khukhuris.

Hey bro I'm from Montana not the side where zombie tools are made but the other side. thanks for making a great video on a knife company from my state

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Is there a flat part of Montana?? Thanks man!

[@joziahbrost6807]

Advanced Knife Bro well not really just a few places up by Canada but still not really flat ha

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

And now I know!

[@ShelleyRaskin]

Nice kuk, looks a little heavy and thick for my taste, I think I would tire swinging it. I think you should give the kabar Becker bk21 Reinhardt kukri a twirl, I got one on a whim and against my better judgement and once I stripped off the black paint it has become my favourite chopper...the sheath in it sucks though and the handle is plastic, but it’s still my favourite. The ring is to stop your hand from slipping onto the blade if you stab something hard.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Aww man.. thats a nice chopper too. I've been chopping with this again the past few days.. even without gloves, the handle is pretty comfortable too. I want to compare several Kukris down the road... but one thing is for sure, I won't be using my Budk any time soon.

[@SeemsLogical]

I saw that you own a Himalayan Imports Khukuri. Have you ever heard of Tora Blades khukuris and would you be interested in reviewing one?

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Yep! I have a few Kukris now, and even have a Kailash blades. I am not in a place for the next month or two where I can review any fixed blades- as I can't really show them off. But I might take you up on your offer once I get a backyard again. you can always hit me up at advancedknifebro@gmail

[@farakhmasood5011]

Afuckingmazeballs! Love it, want it. Thanks, great vid bro. Cheers.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

This guy gets it!

[@farakhmasood5011]

Yeah, but not as often has he’d like!

[@lionheart_2281]

A flashlight review occasionally would be pretty awesome ;-)

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Noted!

[@3p1cand3rs0n]

I just got a Fenix E12 at REI and really like it so far. It is exactly the diameter of an 18650 battery, but about an inch longer. It has 3 output settings (130 / 50 / 8 Luminatis) and uses one AA battery. I use a rechargeable Duracell AA, and I don't know how long it lasts overall because I recharge batteries like an OCD person. I like that it can tail-stand easily, but dislike that it rolls everywhere when you put it down unless you tail-stand it. The beam is high and tight, like Ethan from H3H3. It is perfect for around the house/yard and parking lots and midnight fridge raids. In summation: Fenix E12 is better than all of the Streamlight AA/AAA options (I have them all) and much better than the tiny MagLite single AAA thingie. This review is boring and needs a zinger ending, so I'll say that the Fenix E12 is clinically proven to increase both penile girth and the ROI of your stock portfolio. YMMV.

[@christamu2]

This is greatness. Lynn Thompson's radar is starting to ping. Maybe he could hook you up since the only thing that could make this video better is attacking a bunch of pig and horse carcasses.

[@FancyPrimate]

Every cold steel should come with a complimentary pig carcass.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

I need a animal carcass hookup. I'm not read to pick up roadkill deer yet.

[@FancyPrimate]

Haha. Know any livestock farmers? There's usually a dead pile somewhere. You could start a sister channel, "advanced grave robber"!

[@michaelrossi3707]

[@evandowd5297]

My contribution is never needing nor wanting to own a knife yet watching every single advanced knife bro video

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

That is an excellent contribution!

[@marshalllaw123]

Btw, once you give it a decent edge that Ontario 1095 machete is a BEAST!!

[@PowerMadHeadBanger]

Nice! A good sturdy and thick and long fixed blade. It would be good for soldiers and campers I think.

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Or just idiots with big back yards and things to break down...

[@kx5007]

It looks like the wood is splitting more from being dry and it just shatters from the impact, but when you have really solid dry branches, would a $100 amazon Kukri from napal work fine? Im looking for something nice looking but also very solid and strong under $200

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Yeah... as long as their from reputable sellers. I don’t know you you know. I think Kukri house is ok, so is Himalayan imports, and so is Kailash blades. Check out my recent Kukri overview video.

[@kx5007]

I'll add it to the wish list.

[@daveandmerlin]

This or the new Condor King Kukri ?

[@pcarmical]

Bro, where'd you get those boss gloves? And, more specifically, what brand are they? And whatnot?

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

Wells Lamont Hydra hyde insulated gloves. I think these are a discontinued model though.

[@pcarmical]

Thanks. I guess they don't really go with skinny jeans and a tank top, anyway.

[@AaronsLyfe]

I'm curious..... as much as you love chopping stuff, why not the El Choppo? Great review as always!

[@AdvancedKnifeBro]

That's a nice one... they didn't offer that one though... plus I already had a kukri and it seemed natural.
