To split wood with such a small folder you should carve wedges and use those. Felix Immler shows that on his channel 😉

Personally no saw makes it a no go for me, saw is essential for a Victorinox/multi tool. The extra edge retention of the blade doesn't mean 💩 to me. Victorinox farmer in alox is perfection for "bushcraft" the saw makes notching extremely easy, saw to the exact depth & then clear the material with the blade. Or pair the farmer with a larger blade & there's nothing you can't do.

Now you have the sharpness meter, you should test how the sharpness changes after rope cutting, that would be interesting to compare steels

What I do is I only use the small blade for everything(98% of the time its enough, unless I REALLY need to use the large) and then I know I ALWAYS have the large blade in near perfect fresh sharpened shape for use in a “real” woods or must have sharp situation…. If I carry a Case stockman(or the like) I use the small blade for everything, Spey blade for skin/scalpel(low angle high polished edge) use only, and save the large main blade for must use/need situations(fruit/food/wood) only… I find I get a lot more longer use out of ALL the blades on my pocket knife that way, and the small blade sharpens back so fast/don’t need to sharpen them all as often!!

I have 75 plus knives and Victorinox are still some of my favorites. They are not bushcraft knives, but I always have one in my pocket along with one of my Scandi knives when I’m outdoors. Your videos are pure fun.

I've never minded my Swiss army knives. Easy to sharpen, an touch ups easy. I still own my Swiss. An will keep it till my fingers can't open it.

Don't use folders for batoning guys. Use a wedge-shaped piece of wood or carve one into a wedge and baton that.

It’s been a year that I’m waiting for an other version of this knife with others tools.

Me too. Scissors not a corkscrew would be great

After carrying the same victorinox daily for the better part of a decade, my most used tool is the cap lifter. Since it's a 111mm it had a quite beefy caplifter and it's great for prying tasks.

Great video! I gotta say I love the variety that you guys have been putting into the videos. The content is always strong, and the variety makes it even more fun to watch!

If you’re going to batton with a knife like this you start it like you did then you use a wooden wedge to split the wood.

In regaurds from its usefulness as a knife it seems to trump the victorinox. But far as its function as a multi-tool and ultility i think the victorinox huntsman is unbeatable, i use every tool of my huntsman, its not just a knife every tool on a victorinox has versatility. Putting a fork on whats supposed to be (im assuming due to them using titanium) a lightweight more utilitarian multi-tool is a bit of a red flag to begin with. Its like buying expensive lightweight hiking gear and then carrying bricks in your backpack to build a chair.

See Felix Immler for how to properly baton a SAK. - 1st you make a baton & a splitting wedge 👍. Try it next time 👌 then you can show how to depend on a multi tool for survival .

I have never broke my Vic Forester.... and for me the edge retention is aceptable... so one + for Vic. As a multitool, and not for bushcrafting!

A few years back I purchased a Leatherman Charge made with Titanium and S30V blade for my daughter and myself. I think this was a limited run, though I'm not totally sure on that. At one point I did baton with it and while the wood I was using was not wet like what you were working with it did surprising well. Now, I'm not going to make a practice of using it in this way ever again unless it's vital, like end of the world shit, it did prove itself to be strong and durable. I've carried it everyday since, especially on camping trips in the BWCAW ( Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in case you want to google it) Which is some of the more hardcore styles of camping only accessible via Canoe and portaging between lakes with some pretty extreme elevation shifts and hazardous terrain throughout. One never knows what they'll run into so adding a multitool to your EDC is highly recommendable. Hope you two are dry now. 😎 Cheers!!!

I've always seen to start batoning with it on the half mark, then carve a wedge to finish batoning. That way you don't break your tool!

I know M390 has a good edge retention, but is it easy to sharpen ? Because I don't see the point of having extremely hard steel if only a professional can make it sharp again.

for Victorinox, it would be a Nightmare, to put different Steels on their product line, just because of the numbers they produce, just imagine then this model in that steel and that model in that steel. But I think their steel is not so bad, as it is easy to sharpen, and in all fairness, yo need to sharpen even the best hypersuperduper steel once in awhile.

Great Video guys. I have carried a Victorinox since I was 10 years old. (I won't say how long ago that was but I still have my first one and that model hasn't been made for decades. I currently carry the 1 handed Trecker. (Actually the German Army issue version.) as well as the Swiss Tool Spirit X. They are my E.D.C. and when I'm camping I carry a larger fixed blade. (Usually a Condor Bushlore.) Now I know these knives don't have the best Steel in the World but I carry them for a reason. I can easily sharpen them in the Field. Now that being said I also carry a full sized Saw. (A folding Buck Saw I made.) as well as a Camp Axe. I don't mind carrying the extra weight even on longer hike. It's worth it. (I'm no Putin. I'm not strong like Bull**************************shit.)

So nice , and incredible for the size!

During my military service I used a big knife mostly for batoning and other "heavy work" and then my old Victorinox gran prix for about everything else. It worked great, but I let it retire afterwards and now use mostly my modified tinker deluxe

Awesome vid again dudes! When are you guys testing the Helle Utvaer?!

wow that fished looked so good.

Have you guys done a video on Mercator yet? I very much like it as a backup to a belt knife. I typically run with an Esee 6, old boker carbon steel camp knife and my carbons steel Mercator K55K.

Great video.... You're a good friend Martin 👍

Remind me what the sharpness measure was on the rocksteads please? Did you do them.. I wouldn't have said sak steel didn't stay sharp past a day, in the old models it was 154cm which is not a crap steel in itself though I don't know if thats what they have been using for the last decade of new stuff.

It's a shame victorinox won't upgrade there steel a little because there tool selection is so useful

As always love the work ya do! As far as MKM vers a Vic.. well I take it for what it is; the MKM is a beautiful and elegant tool suited for a Gent to go on a picnic, dinner, or evening out with his special Gal and can also be a great little EDC for general purpose but until they add options such as a saw. metal file, pliers, etc etc it just doesn't compare all that well. And price per performance at nearly 4 to 5 times the cost between the two for like tooled options or less if you get a Vic with a lot more options I'd rather carry a 4 inch leather strop in my pocket made from a cut up old full grain leather belt(which I do}.

wow the thin slipjoint knife broke when you batoned it? that's nuts

Loved it thanx!!! Texas loves you boys!

I really hope the replace or repair for you! I've been thinking about getting one of these myself.

Mikkie, you are the reason why we can’t have nice things.

I wonder what you'd think about Aitor(Spain) victorinox style multitools with locking mechanism... look for Aitor escape bloqueo see if you like it.

That's a good looking fish

Victorinox will lack only on edge retention, on anything else Victorinox will perform way better!!

Question is have you gone back to a victorinox for your edc pocket knife or stuck with this.

Love the Les Stroud reference.

I am a Swiss guy with his Victorinox in bis pockets always. Not sure if I am going to like, but give it a try

Angling the handle 90 degrees does nothing for the stress on the pivot. That's only for Svord Peasant like knives where you can grab the extended blade part to open the knife. Batoning is not a task for a folder in general. Cutting wedges is. I have no use for a fork or a corkscrew in the outdoors. Titanium handle scales and better edge retention on the steel could be nice. But as you mention the power of a SAK is that you can put a workable edge back on with some flat stone you find in nature. So for me it's still the SAK with alox handles for the outdoors.

In the field a simple pocket V sharpener can in seconds put a hair popping edge on a Victorinox or Case, or Buck knife which is why they are good pocket carry for trips into the forest / bush to fish.

Hey guys, are you going to test knives from UG Tools in Germany? They have a very nice project by 3D printing Titanium handles. At the moment they are working on a new magnacut knife.

Boys chompin' on one of them deep forest mackerel-hitters. Yum.

Hi guys, which sharpening tool du u use. thanks..

Try batoning with that Victorinox, will it break or bend? Oh, and test Leatherman multitool blade allso!

What mini belt sander do you use for sharpening?

Awesome video

Ironic since I recently got a new Victorinox that’s just a folding knife I just found that irony funny But I do really hope mine doesn’t share the same fate as what happened about 8 1/2 minutes in

You should make a video where you test different pocket knife sharpeners. In my backpack I always carry one from Lansky (the Quick Fix Pocket Sharpener), it's small and light and works well for me. But then again I don't abuse my knives like you guys do... It would be interesting to see if there's a better alternative since it's the only one I own or used so far.

I doubt that Dawson's differential heat treat would significantly change the performance of their blades. 3V is insanely tough stuff at 60 HRC and there's no fucking way to unintentionally break a 3,5 mm blade stock of that just using your bare hands... Magnacut on the other hand seems to perform amazingly good when heat treated well. I mean that stuff is THE ONE steel that gives a great combination of toughness, edge retention and corrosion resistance that every steel snob has been dreaming of

Where do I get those titanium scales?

try out a new ASKknifes Jefferson made out of Magnacut steel, not the s45vn version. That thing is a modular overbuilt SAK. not a lot of tool at this moment but more's coming up
