Video Transcription
hey what's up Turtles Creek here with blackout outdoors today I wanted to do a video on a knife that I've had for a little while now and it is the k-bar Becker de escobar fixed blade knife the retail of this is pretty wide I've seen some places saying it's like high 70s I think on k-bar web site it's like 83 nonetheless that's the retail the cheapest I found this for around 50 bucks I think I paid like 55 55 but the first thing I want to talk about is the sheath and this is a hard plastic sheath it's not Kydex and I'm going to be quiet you can try to hear it that rattle that plate within the sheath now it does have actual you feel a lock you can hear it but then again it has a straddle which to me is is not acceptable it's really not acceptable to sense have a sheath that just has this play in it now I know I'm going to talk about this knife a lot it's going to be a lot of things about price point and all that but starting off right here the rattle on this sheath I know it doesn't happen with every single knife in every sheath specifically but it's a quality control issue that I personally can do without I plan to make my own sheath but nonetheless here's the sheath and obviously it has these eyelets not obviously but there are these eyelets around here that you can configure this to wear it around your neck because the weight will allow that now moving into the knife specs itself is comprised of made of d2 tool steel which is a semi stainless almost into the stainless and that belief has to do with its percentage of chromium within the alloy I think this is sitting around 10 or 11% of chromium within the alloy so you're going to have some nice rust resistance but you still have to take care of it as you would potentially your other high carbon steels you know wipe it down keep it oiled all that but you will have a little bit better or no rust resistance because if it's chromium content overall length is 7 inches blade length three and a quarter a full flat grind stone Walsh finish that you're seeing thickness of the knife a little over four millimeters I prefer to give thicknesses stuff like that in millimeters because that's what I use in my measure and I'm designing things it's way more intuitive and easier to understand over four millimeters and the weight is about two and a half ounces and does not come with any handle scales its skeletal it's skeletonized and the shape of this knife is sort of a Frankenstein's monster meaning this is the Becker neck or bleed but the Azula handle almost these all the scales won't fit on this you need that they need to be a little bit modified and shaved down a little bit because part of the handle I have these other handles on but part of the actual blade underneath is there's a part that's thicker which won't allow the scales of the Azula to easily go and go into this now it would be really really nice because there's like micarta probably some g10 scales available but I just purchased these I tell handles which I believe were maybe $15 at the most for a pair of these black these black scales and a hive is sort of bright orange came with it but I prefer the black out of those a paracord Hank came with this so you can do a paracord wrap but personally I'm not a fan of those so I opted to buy these scales you can see a little bit thicker and also down here because I don't like I wish these were a little bit thicker in itself so I put a little paracord lanyard down here for me to hold on to you have a little bit more thickness to get a positive grip one on the knife but nonetheless that is sort of the ins and outs of this of the specs so as it came it wasn't really that sharp it was utility sharp but it wasn't shaving not even shaving just it wasn't a quality bevel wasn't an even bevel and it wasn't that sharp so what I did is put my own bevel on this using the Lansky system at first then I used a larger bench stone to make a little bit nicer and then I use a ceramic a ceramic stone that was on my easy lap I use that then to really get it sharp show you the paper right now show you some cutting some paper
just make this easy for myself and this is wet and the paper got wet this paper isn't cutting ahead it's sitting on the forest floor it is you can see it but it's dampness to it and they're not really going to get a nice you can see it's tearing right there it's almost mushy I apologize for that but this is really sharp take my word for not putting any pressure into it just tearing
trying to get a curve to show you that is it is pretty sharp and you saw sort of has a mirror finish to it almost so nonetheless I got it really really sharp I'm really happy with it as it is now I'm going to start doing some some tasks with this using it and give you some more of my oppressions of this knife I'm going to put on a few pieces of wood because it is a flex fixed blade it should be able to do it this will do that you know this is sort of a small camp knife sort of a backup knife that's kind of why got it was sort of an impulse buy because I wanted a small fixed blade just checking to see which piece which piece of this birch has the least amount of knots I want to get called in try this one but nonetheless this is a small backup knife for me I do like folders you know but in all reality having a fixed blade knife is way more dependable useful anything you want to wear like word it so to make small kindling on a fire something like this you know
looking good
pretty good utilize this lanyard and try to do a little bit of feathering we'll see
it's words a little wet I'm not having that much good not much control but either way this lanyard definitely helps a lot helps a lot with the control because it's such a small handle and see it's sitting in my hand not much to grab one - now it's thicknesses definitely definitely definitely improves the knife a lot by being have a little bit more mass to hold on to this isn't the best piece of wood that I'm trying to do this doing these curls and feather sticking with try to give myself a good spot spot to start with youto up the nerve quite a challenge using this little knife to get a lot of control on this birch should've been more prudent try to find a better piece but nonetheless it is capable of doing that you saw me fuss a little bit but it was there make a spear point wanting to make a stake around camp setting up your tower hammock tent anything like that you want to tarp or anything to guy down to the ground secure more than comfortable enough in the hand to do this and this is Bert's pretty hard wood and when I work on birch and I go at it like this I'll know right away how uncomfortable a knife is going to be that's why I do this it's not just for for fun and just you know whittling away to piece of wood I'm doing it to see how the knife feels in the hand by doing really powerful cuts where I'm grabbing grabbing the knife a lot putting a lot of force around the knife with my hand seeing how tired the hand gets yeah and obviously I'm not going to try to use this knife to do a lot of work it's a small knife not meant for that but nonetheless it can do that I'm not trying to go try to find another piece of wood a little bit dryer you have a little bit better better carving characteristics trying to give myself a nice nice place to start
watch the flex on and like any new knife you use and at least in my experience I've noticed there's definitely sweet spots in the knife it feels like how it wants to be used with the angles the grip sort of it's like using a new tool over again and granted it's a knife with a sharp edge as a handle but with the blade geometry everything like that it takes a little bit of time to sort of find like I said the sweet spots in a knife how it wants to be used and this wasn't doing the best I wasn't doing the best feather sticking and curls with this but nonetheless you saw it perform it can do it think some better wooden little more practice with the small knife I can do that but alright you get a pretty good idea of the knife knife in action so my final impressions of this knife are I really like it I really like the blade shape the drop point the full flat grind for this size and this thickness of a knife not really missing a scandi Scandi grind this cuts really well has a nice slicer the handle scales I'm not a huge fan as I tell but they're better than a paracord wrap in my opinion but the extra lanyard offers a lot more girth to grab on to in all honesty having a sharpened spine I prefer pretty much on all of my knives now or at least a section that sharpened it just increases the utility of the knife as opposed to having it carotid for comfort which is still nice if you're going to be carving and putting your thumb up here on either side it's a comfort thing for your for your thumb but maybe having a little section up here this gives it you know that much more capability in my opinion that many more tasks you can do with the knife for the price I wanted to try d2 steel I haven't had any other knife in d2 I want to try it out and I wanted to see you know how it just compares to other steels I've used and because I put a new edge on it I had you know the ability to really go into it actually digging this do take off steel and see how it really worked and honestly I really didn't find it that much of a pain to put a new bevel on this and and sharpen it with ceramic and my bench stone so I know some people talk about the tool steels as opposed to as opposed to a high carbon a hard Carbon knife high carbon steel like 1095 for instance very popular popular steel that tool steels are more of a pain to sharpen they hold an edge longer and stronger but their pain to sharpen you know I really didn't feel feel like it was you know too cumbersome or time intensive to get this to get this where I wanted both that being said I guess for me personally this is going to be like a little backup knife maybe wear it around camp thinking about making a new sheath for it so I can hang it a little bit more comfortably not more comfortably just I just don't like the rattle in this at all it just annoys me every time I use it but nonetheless all around I'm really happy with this knife if you have this knife or any other small fixed blades you could recommend please let me know leave a comment remember to check out blackout doors calm
this is Creek signing out with blackout doors later Turtles you
