If you want to see how the Saca Tripas is used to fight with in Mexico look up Professeur Buitron's videos on the subject.

Thanks, I'll look it up

4:04 Reminds me of a karambit. Cold Steel makes a couple of those too, notably the Steel Tiger.

If you heard it, it was probably too late to run. I purchased the Cold Steel Espada XL, with G10 scales. So I have been researching the Navaja. It is a very interesting subject. I've known about the sound, long before I knew about the knife. Thanks for the great video.

Joker knives makes some, lion steel makes a slip joint version designed by gudy von poppel. And byond edc makes 2 version designed by dirk Pinkerton, one model is a budget model with g10 scales, stainless liners and 14c28n blade all for $35 and the other model is a titanium framelock with a s35 blade for $150. Then you have the coldsteel espada. Kershaw makes a navaja style knife, stainless frame lock with a d2 blade, they have a 4.5 inch and a 5.5 inch blade version.

I luv the Cold Steel version of the Navaja ⚔️

Yep, the Espada XL. I bought one not too long ago. The one with the G10 handle scales, and it is a big scary knife. But it does fit in the pocket of my Wrangler Jeans of all things.

Gracias maestro!

Lovely..... So Navajas are basically the big ass coldsteel lockback knives of the early centuries.👍

The saca tripas was also very common among vaqueros in Mexico

The Ska Gripas has a very similar blade shape with the Karambit but obviously upscaled... big time 😊😃

The Curved Blade looks awesomely cool 👌

I would probably translate sacatripas more accurately as "intestine remover". Sacar means to take out, tripas are intestines.

I'm going to add some facts for context: Gypsies are no longer traveling people, and it's not a derogatory word. The only problem is that there is people concerned about "political correctness" who want to dictate what others are allowed to say. The word gypsy does really have a stigma, mostly because every time they are mentioned it's because they are perpetrators of some kind of aggression or crime. They consider themselves gypsies and nothing else, they may sometimes use some other word, but 99% of the times they use the word "gitano", which is translated to gypsy. Also, they used to be forbidden from carrying knives (navajas or any kind of knife) due to their typical uses for those (robberies and such), so they carried mostly scissors or other sharp tools to avoid trouble if registered. In Spain, any folding knife is called a "navaja". So in order to distinguish any kind of pocket knife from a "navaja" we specify, adding words to one or the other. We may call a navaja a "navaja tradicional" and a military style pocket knife a "navaja tactica". Or maybe "navaja española" for our navajas, and "navaja suiza" for a swiss pocketknife. Spain has always had a long tradition of folding knives, some archaeological finds date from pre-Roman times.

Nice tutorial

There is a guy in San Jose whose company goes by the name of Stickman. I believe he makes a wooden or synthetic version of the sacatripa and navaja

Navaja is more like a folding Norse seax

Spanish Roma/Sindi peoples have no problem with being called gitanos (gypsies). Unlike other countries.

"ROMANES" means gipsy or gipsies in the gipsy language... I have many gipsy friends and they don't find it offensive at all to call them gipsies... it is a term like "white" "black" "asian" so not offensive... they also call each other gipsies or romanes... it depends however how you use it. If you use in in a negative conotation of course they're not gonna like it.

IF the "travelers" of Spain is like it is in other places in Europe then that group includes more then just Romani groups (although share many commonalities). In some countries "travers" and Romani are two distinct but similar groups. In others the term "travlers" act as a umbrella term that includes but are not exclusive to Romani. There is also different Romani groups that came to a country at very different points in time and as such go under different names. So if you do not want to go into details a generic term like "travlers" is actually quite a good term to use.
