It's a paste, just like toothpaste.But for God's sake don't put it in your mouth. It's really good stuff. Great for removing any surface rust, stropping and generally making things shine. Another big advantage is that it is very easy to find in petrol stations, hardware stores ect.

Awesome! I'll try to keep it off my tooth brush. Lol​@KuukkeliBushcraft

The X 14 does look good. Never seen it before, just looked it up. I think the x7 is a compramise of usability vs weight. The X5 I like for spoon carving ect I don't think I have ever taken it trekking. I have with the X13 and it seemed fairly useful at least for me. I do have trekking axes that I prefer, but generally heavier. As for the X13 compared to a large knife. That sounds like a good idea for a video. Thanks for watching the video.

Me gusta mas, el Peltonen aun que el Terava tambien esta bien. Me gusta la punta mas fina que tiene el Peltonen y que se puede montar la funda en maneras diffarentes. Otro cuchillo pequeño que me gusta mucho es el Roselli Carpintero y el Marttiini Syyslehti (que ahora no se puede comprar). Tambien el Mora woodcarving basic tiene muy buena pinta aun que no lo he usado. Es el 510 pero mas pequeño. Entonces no hace falta pagar mucho. Tal vez hare un video, que prefieres lo hago en este canal en Ingles o el otro en Español?

@@KuukkeliBushcraft Buenas! Sería un vídeo realmente interesante, en la comunidad de habla hispana debido a las restrictivas normativas cada vez están más de moda los cuchillos de tamaño contenido. Pero desconozco si esto también está pasando en otras comunidades y la potencialidad de esos mercados. Ahora con la generación y traducción de subtítulos automática de youtube cualquier persona puede disfrutar de contenido de calidad en cualquier idioma, por lo que yo lo haría en el canal que mejores estadísticas puedan tener los videos sobre este tipo de cuchillos. Gracias por tu respuesta, es muy interesante 😊

Thank you, often overlooked but it is handy to have some heavy duty scissors.

Thank you very much Lee. Will be cutting down some trees with it tomorrow. We need to replace some broken light posts on the farm.

You can't go wrong with a bit of Led Zeppelin 🎵🎵. This is a really nice handy little knife. Thanks for watching mate.

It's weird isn't it. Apparently it's to knock them in further if the head starts to come loose. I will be making a video about it soon and will go into it in a bit more depth. They do everything different in Japan and often better. I have always in the past pleasantly surprised whenever I use Japanese tools. I really don't like those wedges though 😂.

Thanks Jas, judging by my hair many people would presume that I don't agree 😂

Thanks mate, I will try to do some more videos like this over the summer (even though they don't get so many views). There is far more to the outdoors than just knives and equipment.

Neither had I, I saw it for sale second hand and very cheap (plus unused) couldn't say no 😂. Japanese tools tend to be interestingly different and very effective. Kiridaahis, pull saws and that kind of thing. I really like the size and weight. Not used it yet. Going to play with it a bit tomorrow.

@@KuukkeliBushcraft Great Find! Yes, the Japanese are a little different in their approach, but boy, do they do some nice work! Love my Honda Goldwing! Ha!

Gracias amigo.

Japanese tools are always weird but really effective in my experience. Looking forward to trying this one out. Thanks for watching Travis.

Im a metallurgist at a japanese company in America, and I have noticed that in Japan they just dont have cheap tools. Their philosophy appears to be "if it is worth buying, it is worth buying a good one"

It's different isn't it? Going to take it out into the woods tomorrow.

She has her own channel for that but she is too lazy to upload videos 😂. Thanks for watching mate.

Yes mate, they are very similar aren't they. Thanks for watching.

Thanks Lee, for me bushcraft began with camping and foraging, long before I ever heard of the word. I learnt a lot about plants through the foraging, working as a gardener for many years must help too. As for the prunus, I really should have recognised that, it is a bird cherry. God bless you and yours too mate and thank you very much for watching.

Thanks Chris, it would have been nicer if it wasn't for the mosquitoes🤣

There are only ticks in the southern half of Finland, here in the far north it is far too cold for ticks, fleas, rats, mice (although we do have a lot of other rodents) and too cold for a lot of other things. Also too cold for most people 🤣. Thanks for watching mate.

Everything earlier in the south, even in Rovaniemi, I have been there and been eaten alive when there are absolutely no mosquitoes at all in Hetta. I traveled from here to Helsinki once in May, it was incredible to go from pretty much winter to something very similar to an English spring in a few days. Hey mate, give me a shout if you are passing through Hetta. We can have a beer and if you need a place to stay Unni won't mind being deprived of her sofa for a night. Or alternatively I have a Kota by a nice river.

Thank you Arielle, it's a very nice area. It's really pretty up on the fells too. I will try to get up there more often now the lowlands are getting swarmed with mosquitoes. Thanks for stopping by.

Glad you liked it, thank you very much for watching mate. Hope you have a great weekend.

You should have seen all of the outtakes mate🤣. She was also panting quite a lot in the background. Poor girl, it's not the best weather for a husky at the moment. Thanks for watching Scott. Have a fabulous weekend mate.

Glad you enjoyed it, thank you very much for stopping by Michael.

I have never drank the beer with the Labrador tea. They used to make it back in the old days. It was used as a replacement for hops I think. Thanks for watching Jas mate. Have a lovely winter.

Thank you! Cheers!and have a great weekend.

It definitely does, thanks for watching mate. Have a great weekend.

Hi Jörg, mine too. It's now got a convex edge and cuts extremely well. But it was quite a lot of work. I am liking it now, but for a younger version of me with less experience of sharpening tools, it would have been a waste of money. I will do a fuller review in a while. I wish I had got some before and after footage from the sharpening. I think I have at least me showing it cutting compared to the Predator from this video. But that was after some work. Thanks for watching mate. Have a great weekend.

@@KuukkeliBushcraft I didn't feel like profiling it by hand. That's why I tried to do the work with a machine grindstone for the first time. Unfortunately, it didn't work as well as I had imagined. The knife ended up in the garbage can. It's sad that you don't have any before and after photos. I have the Predator in the induction-hardened form. It's one of my best knives. Have a great weekend buddy

@@JPHomeland I used the belt sander at work, I hate those grindstones. I have seen them ruin so many knives. It's a bit risky with the belt sander too. It's a shame they can't do better with the sharpening in Poland. The Predator is one of my best knives too. Lovely high grind, great blade size and shape. All round fantastic knife.

That certainly makes a lot of sense if you are around water. Different things work in different environments. The only time I use a knife around water is for cleaning fish. Even then I usually use my fish shears. Thanks for watching mate. Hope you have a good weekend.

I have had the puukari in my hand, didn't really like the fit and finish or the feel of it too much. Have you considered (I feel like a traitor, it's not Finnish) the Za-pas modern puukko. You might have to do quite a substantial amount of work on the edge. It's what I am taking to work everyday at the moment. Again very similar specs and also 80CRV2 steel. It's also cheaper than the puukari. Just a suggestion. Thanks for watching my freind.

@@KuukkeliBushcraft Thanks Tim. I'll give the za-pas a go. Cheers

Thanks mate, to be honest if I forked out the cost of a bark river, I think I would be too scared to lose it to take it out of the house. I really like 80CRV2 steel. Very dependable and generally not expensive.

@@KuukkeliBushcraft that's how I am too! I have a bunch of knives and my few nicer ones rarely ever leave my property. The utilitarian part of me would rather buy a few decent ones than just one really nice one. ✌️

Hola Roberto, gracias por ver el video amigo.

It's really nice now I have put a decent edge on it. The one it came with really wasn't clever. Thanks for stopping by mate.

@@KuukkeliBushcraft always brotha!!(=

Yes we are all different. I like it now it has a good edge on it (the one it came with was pretty bad). The only other real criticism that I have is that the handle could be a little longer. Thanks for watching mate.

Yes Ellie does some nice artwork. Got a nice little business making very fancy dog name tags on pieces of reindeer antler. Thanks for watching mate.

Thanks for watching! Great to be able to share Ellie's work with you guys.

Yes she is a clever lass our Ellie. Thanks for watching Lee. Have a great weekend.

Cheers Ace, hope you are keeping well. Glad you liked the video mate.

Oh no, it happens to us all mate. Thanks for stopping by Andy.

A big knife, did I have leukus lieng around in the background? Give Jimbo a scratch from me and the Unni beast. 🐾🐾

Gave up on all of that, took it in to work and got it on the linisher. Then went through the stones. Now got a convex edge that cuts really well and is holding nicely. Really happy with how it turned out. It was pretty bad.

No it's not really a puukko, kind of depends on your definition of a puukko though. It's a lot more of my cup of tea now I have put a decent edge on it. Realy came with a bad cutting edge. Thanks for watching mate.
