Big smile from start to finish watching this! Thank you so much for your review! I feel honoured! You are very accurate on where we got our inspiration from :) We aim to make this knife a standard item in our shop. However it is as you say TRC is a small company and supplies will be limited. Thanks a lot and stay sharp!

Honestly I think they might have. I watched a test done by a channel who's every episode has the sole goal of breaking the knife. It was insanely difficult for him to do. He eventually had to hammer it into a stump, lay on his back with his feet against the stump to brace himself and had to pull like he was trying to pull the sword from the stone. I was really surprised at how well the Elmax stood up to it.

I'm pretty excited to receive it. I can't pull off a more Australian looking hat here, but this one should serve me well. Very nice knife in this video. Too scary looking to wear around town here.

That knife looks good enough for a Tonberry!

Within the first minute I questioned where the hat was. Not disappointed lol.

I too waited a day and missed out on the first run and then I did the same damn thing on the second run!!!! I have a BARK RIVER Bravo one which is similar as well as a DULO DBK knife in K390. Well I have several DULOS which, are awesome!!!! I think five or six DULOS now. I will get a DBK knife yet and I too want it in Magnacut. I was actually very fortunate in that the boys at DBK Marteen and MIkkie were nice enough to have chosen me as A winner of their monthly giveaway a Falklniven A1X and an F1X. Great knives as well and won't be giving them up as the knives came from them and they are salt of the earth. Good stuff Brother, keep it up.

@@ssunfish I started off with aDBK Dulo knife bushcrafter. Then I saw the Leuku and ordered it. I like a Pukko do I then ordered that followed by an F hunter and a kitchen chopper and Aaro Pukko are coming. Dulo makes a great knife and for a super price. I think if he could have dedicated enough time to make their knife, it would have been made by Dulo as his stuff is incredible. I have and have had many custom knives over the years. As far as fit and finish then not to mention the the cost. Super knives. I use them for hunting and generally I can cut an entire deer and a hog with virtually no edge loss. A quick stropping and back on top. Wait times are about 7 to 10 months but, that pretty quick as a Randall is five years and an AD knife is four years wait from time of order.

i'd als be interested in what boots you've been wearing. since you've started talking about your hats and other things.

Absolutely absolutely absolutely a beauty of a knive! 😍 If ever I get a chance, and have the finances at that moment, I will jump on it!

Garden's looking good mate.

I just have to know lol, have you ever gotten like halfway through a cut test and then lost count??? 🤣🤣🤣 man that would really grind my gears!

I'd just like to voice my appreciation for not only the consistent high quality of the videos, but the awesome choices in soundtrack. And those cheese cuts were almost sensual in how straight they were. That's some skill right there.

Best head of broculi I ever saw Cedric should be giving gardening instruction.

Very good video. You teach a lot. I didn't know VG10 steel could do that many rope cuts. And the cheese cutting demonstration is interesting.

Good job, Pete!

Good choice on the new hat and DBK knife. 👍🏻

That’s a beautiful garden. My mother would approve for sure

An excellent and funny video. It shows clearly that a bushcraft knife has a very clearly defined purpose and it makes little sense to push it into a role of an all-rounder. It helped me to realize that this is not a knife for me, however well it is designed and built.

I got so mad in the first minute with ZERO hats in it! The broccoli cutting entranced me and then BAM! Mr. Handsome himself with an even handsomer hat!

Your opening song made me feel like I was back in Hyrule

Music reminds me definitely on my 90s time as a kid playing secret of mana… This must be some Squaresoft masterpiecery behind it! LOVE IT!

Beautiful garden

It's got more than kind of a Bark River aesthetic. I know there is very little completely new in the knife design realm that has been evolving for millennia, but there is nothing there to distinctly differentiate that knife from a BRK Bravo. And yeah, the BRK Bravo is certainly among the most high performing and versatile knives made. So to the extent this one is similar to the Bravo, it is a very good knife indeed.

Maartin and Mikkie look better than ever

Just can't wait for the dbk "budget"on knife

"...knife designed by Marteen and Mickey..." *flashes picture of The Eurythmics* 😂😂😂

I just want the DBK knife.

I expect we will be seeing this in CPM-Magnacut at some point.

Oh yes DBK just the best. It looks like bark river, DBK favourite. Awesome knife thanks for review, unfortunately knives very expensive in Aussie land,

I was going to get in on the Kickstarter for this knife but had other more pressing things to spend money on sadly. Ah well. Hopefully, they do end up as a standard TRM item.

Love this knife!!

I like the pictures of the Dutch Boys. lol

I like it…I really see the bark river gunny/bravo1 inspiration.

Very nice review and a very decent one also, as always. I'm curious what do you think about the Trc South Pole.

it looks like bark river bravo came to the fallkniven f1 and said let's have a baby 😂😍

Most people cant properly sharpen convex ground knives, and should they ever chip will be almost impossible to regrind without a belt grinder and lots of experience (especially with these modern super steels). Of cause most people never notice this because these kinds of knives are purely collectors items for most people & dont get used very much or very hard. This problem also applies especially to bark river & fallkniven.

I use the work shop Ken onion belt sharpening system with the blade grinding attachment and it puts a convex edge on my knives automatically, it’s a great system if you like convex edges, if you want a straight angle the it’s not the best system.

I don't think I mentioned this on the Pastoralist review but the hat looks looks good and its good to see in the video.

I have the Spyderco version made of 01 tool steel and its ok. It's biggest down fall is the smooth as glass handle. If your hands sweat or get wet you have poor gripping power after that, I sharpen it true scandi style and just lay the primary bevel on a stone and grind away and it's the best method because you can touch it up in the field with little effort all you need is your favorite grit slip stone. So easy to have a completely razor sharp edge at all times.

That thumb nail for the DBK lads lmao

10:15 “Hello Sidney, do you like scary movies?”

A hole saw attachment for a drill Wrapped with any thick tape to protect knife and user from hole saw teeth (I use Duct tape) Masking tape goes over the thick tape Compound goes on the masking tape And this is what I use on my convex knives (To touch them up or strop them) But for damage that can't so simply be worked out using compound wheel, I use work sharp with belts that I made my self.

Great discusion per usual Pete. I could'nt help but notice your boots in this video. Very nice. owever, lm wondering if a discerning gentleman such as yourself, has ever considerd a pair of Redwing, Iron Rangers. Ive been wearing mine for around 4.5 years now & absolutly love em. Slightly pricey but we could do worse. Great boots. Thanks for the content, very informative. Cheers mate, from America 🇺🇸

Very nice knife

G'day Pete, I have been wondering about this one. Dig it, especially since it is convex rather than a scandi, very Bravo-esq. @ 600-ish AUD though, it'd wanna be good. Btw, I have found very fine wet & dry, (in the 2000 range), on a flat floor tile does the business on convex. Ok, not machine driven, but does facilitate a great deal of control, and I'm one of those with time management issues that actually enjoys sharpening by hand. Cheers Duke.

How the heck do you keep your orchard like that? Are you using permaculture? Love it. Great vid and review as always Pete.😁👌

No thanks. Still in love with the LS T5. Great vids kind sir.

It kind of looks to be just what I want. Every other similar knife I've seen has all the features but the finger guard. Awesome

My first (and only) attempt at designing a knife was pretty similar to the dbk... I also wanted it as the end all knife so I put it in a pommel as well. It cost me 175 cdn dollars iirc and I had it made by dulo knives

@@jbbolts As much as I appreciate DBK, I have to say your design hits my taste better. Good looking knife.

An outstanding knife and now Bark River has the Aurora in Magnacut at DLT trading for $330.00 to $435.00 USD. Not as tall a blade but otherwise same grind and length. Unfortunately, the basic handle models are gone, but there are some fancy or exotic handle models that are still in stock. have had the basic black micarta for a month now and it is now my main EDC pocket knife. I use it every day to cut boxes up and in the garden and only have had to stop to clean the glue and sap off the blade. The blade is still razor-sharp. I would love to see someone make a straight razor out of Magnacut so I could shave for years without any major sharpening.

Nicely done brother I really like the way you just say it like it is, plus even if the knife was a meh you can’t fault the two lunatics that help give birth to it. Have a beautiful day and stay safe and healthy my man.😘👍

Could you please do a review of the Ontario hunt plus drop point knife, it looks like a great camp/ outdoors and cooking knife

as of this time December 2023 they don't seem to be listing this model the DBK boys (luv that candid shot of them 😅) have made another cooperation with BPS in Ukraine definitely aimed at the budget market their knives are generally well thought of especially in US and they have a model for everyone who has ever said why can't I have a wood handled Mora (and not pay an absolute fortune for it)

I was checking out my friend's kitchen knives in highschool and I left a fingerprint on the blade. I wiped it on my sleeve like you did in the video and now I have a 1in scar on the outside of my arm. Every time I wipe knives off now I'll either wipe it up my pants in a stropping motion, or I'll pinch it in my shirt with the edge pointed away from me.

Most expensive knife I've ever purchased was quoted at 200$ and was my own design once the maker decided they loved my design they upped the price to 400 with a sheath I offered to sell my desing to them and they got pissed at me they finally dropped the price to 300 for a knife in 8670 with g-10 handles was a hand made knife which I know cost more but wasn't expecting the price none the less it's my all time favorite knife with beautiful purple handles and a black acid stone wash blade
