Cody, is your Wranglermart going to open again in the future?
Was that you playing the piano? If yes, you have really improved ;)
My dad wants to know where did you get your hat?
$100 would make more sense, it sounds like a shovel hitting a rock
Hello from the uk seen a tool similar to that before that wasnt very good either I liked your video hopefully to save you from death when the wife finds out how much you paid for it .happy xmas wranglerstar family
“It’s not something that’s designed by somebody who’s ever cut down a tree”
Me, who’s never cut down a tree: what a bunch of losers
im crying lmaooooooo
Me neither. Never cut down a tree... With a hand saw. Cut plenty with a chainsaws. That little branch in a video is not a tree. xD
this one... i like this one
It's very satisfying felling a tree with only an axe, and a proper felling axe makes the job very pleasant.
@@tjurostas3704 aight where u livin
$600?!? I hope that was a tasty cup of tea!
no way just watched your video
Whoa didnt expect to see you here :)
oooh hi
Why r u here?? Theres no locks to pick at unless my heart 😳🗣

Is it just me, or does every current "survival tool" seem to be nothing more than an upscaled version of a 1980's "Rambo Knife" ?
"'For survival' and 'for search and rescue' is engineering speak for 'we built something cool and just realized we need to justify it'" ~xkcd.
Created by Undergrad Engineering Degree students who wanted to design something to look cool rather than be worth It in usefulness. Add a useless feature here, stainless steel there, random milling design here.
A machete basically
Honestly. I don't think anything is made to be useful anymore. Maybe a special thing here or there. but most everything is garbage now. Everything in Walmart, pure trash. Target, pure trash. Just think about anything you have bought in the last year. Where is it now? Most likely in the trash. I often think...When I feel like spending some money...I want to buy something that is going to last and means something. Not saying there isn't some good stuff out there...but I can't think of much. and most everything is cheap and only made to sell, so you will need to replace it within a year. I want stuff to last at least 5-10 years before I even consider replacing it. And not because it is worn out or broken...but because I want a newer version or its just a good time to replace it. But nothing like that exists.
There's this new breed of con-people out there for the last decade or so: the crowdsourced novelty peddler.
It's anything, literally anything, these days: shoes, pants, ropes, cutlery, pens... And, of course, for the most part, tools and electronic gadgets.
There are, of course - or this wouldn't work - all those people that can't resist novelty. They always dream it up as being some magic solution that'll be easy to use and very rewarding and all... And are repeatedly duped.
So, yeah, as long as crowdsourcing exists, you're gonna see a lot of those around, mostly drowning real tools on search results (unless you know what you're looking for).
I could literally just watch this man make things in the forest, no talking, no music, nothing, and I would be very happy.
Then do it, lol, he has a channel full of videos
I'm sure him and Ron Swanson would be the best of acquaintances
Watch Chad zubler he literally did a primitive hut build over years and recently started another one
Reminds me of "Primitive Technology".
I believe they call that 'love'
Would be an interesting follow-up video showing the tools you would choose that would supplant this all-in-one design piece for the same $600 budget. TY
Iagree, for the same $600 budget I think a person could have an arsenal of quality survival gear.
The value came from it being small and compact, still not worth 600$ but its easy to carry
yes, but you wouldn't be able to pack it nor carry it so efficiently and the weight would be significantly more burdensome.
@@llamawizard Could incorporate your parameters into the comparison test. Include as well, the total weight. There are ways to carry & pack tools without them being all-in-one...no?
( Wranglestar pls take the challenge ; ) )
And while sticking to space minimization
Me trying to survive financially after buying this is the real challenge
I couldn't even buy it lol
I guess that’s the idea -> buy overpriced axe -> go bankrupt -> lose home -> try using it for survival evading authorities -> fail surviving
$600 isn't even that much
@@r.p5380 This is relative
@@shimmentakezo1196 pre Covid I think everyone didn't really appreciate how much $100 is so yeah
"That's right, Six Hundred Dollars. My own money." I think that 6 million views might have helped you break even lol.
I mean if you had a social media account that you made content for and received compensation for advertisements then that is YOUR money... like the money I make at work is mine once I work for it, it doesn’t STILL belong to the company
Not to mention, returns and refunds are a thing.
Kinda hard to feel sorry for him when you notice he is wearing a watch that cost 10x more than that tool 😂
Even more so!
@@jovanminier4926 uhh I didn't think he was talking about who's it was
I know nothing about survival and have no idea why youtube recommended your channel, but I've quite liked the 2 videos I've watched and it has inspired me to go get lost in the wilderness just to see how well I go. Wish me luck guys.
Just don't do it 🤣
Any bears reading this comment will be happy.
RIP
As long as u report that you are fine in a few days and that no beast has eaten u whole, thats fine for me
I already know he's ded without reading the comments
he just has the AR in the background in case any squirrels look at him funny
Goodoc haha I went scrolling in the comments thinking that I couldn’t possibly be the only one who noticed the pretty lethal looking firerarm in the background, turns out I wasn’t.
im saying 🤣
It triggered the hell out of me. It's supposed to be at arms' reach at all times. That or you get to go for a treasure hunt or just get smoked.
Idk where he is but the only reason as to why have an AR in the wild would be in case of a bear attack
@@endery4ssir499 Or mountain lions, Or coyotes, or wolves, or any other large predators, or a nutjob looking to kill someone in the woods. Which happens somewhat often.
I learned less about this tool and more about how to build a perfect fire/tea-heating camp set up. And I'm completely satisfied with that.
Same here :D
Lol Right!?
So true
Dito
That's also how you make spring traps
Did anyone else feel this was the most satisfying thing to watch.
I found myself being mesmerized during a portion of it.
the wood cutting, the fire burning and crackling in the background.
I was beach camping last week and ya know what I used to cut driftwood? A meatcleaver. It did a wonderful job at it.
I got faith in human kind when I see people like you filming videos and actually teaching people stuff in a pleasant subtle and profound way.
Every swing of that axe just sounds like pain. Over engineered, expensive pain.
yer mums butthole- yo im a huge fan of your work dawg. When is the new album gonna drop?
You can hear it vibrate....
Yeah I bet the designer has never chopped down a tree before and lives in a city
Why the heck does someone need to cut the whole tree to survive? you're not a lumberjack when you're freezing
@@Authent12 Maybe watch the video, especially the part when he explains why
It’s actually incredible how many products are designed by those who have and never will use them
The problem with this product is that it is not a survival, but a rescue tool..it is in the first place meant as a rescue tool(breaking in doors etc. ) not for bushcraft, carving of felling a tree.
If you you have more money than brains, this tool is good for you. Otherwise your barking up the wrong tree. You can axe other owners of this, what they think. 😆
@@heibk-2019 I’m also talking generally. Some of the first tampons were designed by men. The first space suit toilet system for men was designed by a women and it failed before development.
It’s just a reoccurring problem
"God help us, we're in the hands of engineers."
@@tuttlespeachtree3413 damn is that going to be my engineering graduation quote
When making the wedge, why not cut the wedge from a longer piece, then shorten it? Holding onto such a short piece seems needlessly risky and less safe.
I was thinking the exact same.
Maybe he did and it was awkward to hold a long piece of wood in frame while hacking at the other end with the axe so he did it again with a shorter piece of wood. Although based on the video it seemed like the decision to make a wedge in the first place was a bit of a snap decision so he just grabbed the first piece of wood he could to make the wedge.
I don't understand why he didn't just make the wedge resemble a right triangle instead of both sides looking the same it accomplishes the same task with less work
@@hanksadventures4132 I’d imagine it’s because the limb is round, so making it like a right triangle might make the tip of it a bit too fragile to work with

"I dont wanna offend anyone, but anybody that thinks this is anything more than a novelty is soft in the head"
Well im glad you dont wanna offend anyone lmao
Offense is always taken, never given. The 5 million people watching it could be totally fine with what he said. Very unlikely, but possible lol
deserved
It's pretty well known that wood always absorbs shock better than plastic in handles. There's also no ergonomic curves. I'm not that experienced at using a hatchet, but some of these things are pretty basic facts. Aluminum is another material that doesn't absorb shock that well. I know this because I have aluminum bikes. I stand when I ride them, so I don't ruin my prostate.

That's not what subtle means lol

My thoughts exactly. I hope he recouped his losses.
Thank you for the honest review of this. My wife was looking at possibly buying me something like this as she knows I need something for my go bag and it looked like it had all the right tools at the right weight (Though the version she found is a slight bit cheaper). Now we know this is definitely NOT going in my go bag.
Just wanted to take this chance to thank you for all you do on youtube. Your tool evaluations are honest and absolutely fair. You are a valuable person and I just wanted to send congrats from a long time (85 year old) subscriber. God bless you and your work.
He got that ar in the background just in case any tree starts moving
Lol, naaah there's probably bears or coyotes where he lives
@@airthefallen yeah
This comment is underated
Well if the trees start speaking Vietnamese he’ll be ok
the real survival tool
Thanos: "All that for a drop of blood"
The bear in the bush: "All that for a cup of tea"
🤣
What'd you say about me?
Its def expensive, but I think its more for preppers than for survivalists. Sure a prepper should have other good quality tools, but for a bug out bag this looks to be amazing for how compact it is
I'm not fully up to date on my Wranglerstar watching, but to my recollection this is the only "survival tool" that completed the job and survived!
To me, the look of it and the appraisal of it make it sound like a proof of concept for someone who has the final product in mind as something that is actually ergonomic and much more affordable. It would be a decent success if that were the case. The realistic route, I think, is using the patents in other tool lines, either make simpler/better ones from the ground up or license/sell them to bigger companies.
I love the fact that he just has a random AR sitting behind him against a tree
Yeah I saw that too probably for bears or boar
Or to show off lets be honest :b
Bruh this really bugging me too lol
Yaaaaaahhh!!!

Just seen the AR15 in the background and now I realize this is the most American scene ever
It should be changed to "USA"

I was thinking the same, to be more american it just need a muscle car or an diesel 4x4 😂
And how could you ever survive in the wilderness without a 30-round magazine?
@@6massa6cre6 Which of those is Cody lacking then?
for $600 that tea would be made out of my tears
For that money, I bet you could purchase one of each of the tools there for less price and they would all work better.
With ten time the weight and size?
Yes.
Fluck that. I can get a used chainsaw for $100 with gas, a 36" axe for $10(I know it is still in the forest 3 years ago) so I can buy a second one. Knife, you call that a knife? 15" croc killer. A Bic for $1 Hammer for free.(back edge of axe) A schit shovel for prospecting. Have not made $200 yet.
In a serious survival situation, everyone knows that looking cool while surviving is crucial
Of course it does, because for the average man the dream is to be the movie type survivor. So it has to look cool, that means that you've got it, you're going to figure everything out somehow. At least that's what sells a 600 $ survival tool you will throw in your truck and that might be really handy eventually.
gotta look tackticool
@@igkgigoh Hm good point. I guess the real survival situation here is that of the marketing team trying to make a profit, which one could argue whether is cool or not, so I will say lukewarm
I’ll just bring regular comfortable efficient tools
well ya no one is going to share their shmeckes with a loser
"I don't mean to offend anybody, but this tool appeals to someone who doesn't know anything about tools". Haha
He also brandished the phrase “soft in the head” 😂, no offense though 🤣
lol
I mean are normal Axe and are knife would be good for survival
@@geld1gelld422 this thing is way more compact. Yet I would not spend anything even close to 600$ for this small economy in space.
@@heyhoe168 it is compact but 600$ is overkill for this. That waht i said are Axe and are knife would do
I love the concept of a multi-tool, though I've never found an exception to: purpose built items winning out over hybrid compromise fluff.
That said, I would love to see someone like you self in contact with the designers looking to fix every gripe you could muster at them and see if something this interesting could ever stand on it's own legs!
Even the best example I know of (Leatherman Surge) is still heavily compromised compared to dedicated tools. It just happens to be built well enough that it manages to be good enough for most things. I don't want to carry that many tools around all day every day but the Surge is a decent compromise. This combar thing? Garbage
Watching this 2 years later, this is a great video!

At 600 dollars, it is the seller who is the real survivor with this tool
I'm not sure it actually has much margin. It's limited volume production and there's a lot of fixed costs being amortized to make something like this.
LOL. excellent comment. it's priced at 600 so the seller can break even, one day, in about 10 years, probably.
@@CZcamsSupportTeams But as a kickstarter they barely paid anything out the door. Even then they still made out by getting community funded for a device that no one in their right mind would buy except for folks who review the thing to tell you it is so unnecessary.
600 dollars could get you fully outfitted at Walmart, and still have enough for Texas Roadhouse/Longhorns on the way home
“I’m gonna say this as nice as possible” *proceeds to literally destroy the mans career*
Please. He just stated the obvious. If you just carry the few tools this multi tool tries to combine for 600$, you will have better tools for less money and not even that mutch more weight.
Yeah I’m not trying to offend anyone but who ever invented this Is a smooth brained fool.
@@personman8734 well, it was crowd founded, so... there you go
@Levi Calliope you're right but there are enough people out there who supported this that it got into production. So the designer is not alone
Proceeds to protect 5.4 million people from making a regrettable purchase! Hahaha
8:08 sums up my thoughts of most survival tools pretty much.
What I took away from this is that a folding digger on a good quality hatchet might be nice. On the other hand my red army surplus folding shovel only cost me 6 bucks and chops so well I'm sometimes tempted to leave my hatchet at home.
I'm happy to see you're still making videos. You got a subscriber today. Thanks for the quality content.
I love the difference in vibes between the lone man in the woods wearing flannel, the calming classical music in the background, then the random AR leaning against a tree. Good work.
As an European, that shot with the AR just laying on a tree gave me a solid laugh. Like "ok that's so american"
Where is he? Lol if he is in the US where they get bears an AR is probably necessary haha
When i saw that i was like " Yep... Hes american..."

This is the sort of gadget that used to appeal to me before I did much backpacking and camping. With more experience I tend to use simple, generic tools like an average small hatchet and a folding saw from the hardware shop. They're cheap and they get the job done. The only complex gadget to stand the test of time is the Swiss Army Knife.
Yeah all these companies trying to turn big tools into Leathermans or Swiss Army Knives are just failing at this. You end up with a mediocre tool whose only purpose is to store other smaller tools that are likewise mediocre.

I love watching there North American survival setups, pine and like wood readily available splits like a knife though warm butter
Unfortunately we don’t have the luxury in Australia most wood is very difficult to split
I believe if it had a slightly longer handle as well as a rubber coating to diminish some of the impact as well as a thicker saw blade with washer bearings to eliminate the play the knife would be better off with a magnetic stopper inside the sheath and an upgraded handle

@@dlogic6781 how old are you?
Very enlightening, thank you!
it's neat to have a tool kit inside the handle of the largest tool, but a hollow handle never really does the trick for hammering. this whole multi-tool thing started with Swiss Army knives, and the Leatherman got the great idea of making folding pliers with various blades/tools in the pliers handle(s). But a hammer or an ax has not been effectively made into a multi-tool because of the trauma involved when hitting that hard with it.
I want to design a tool handle that when fully assembled would work as walking stick, and then that stick could be broken down such that an axe head, shovel head, saw blade, spear blade, hoe, etc., could be fitted to the handle-securely fitting them would be the challenge. I think threading the pieces could work if there was another hole through the threaded socket of the tool heads and the threaded handle end so that a retaining pin could be inserted to stop the head from spinning loose. I think i could make something far more useful and practical than this and sell it for 250 or 300. The heads could be stored in a heavy canvas bag and lashed to a backpack or camping gear. Again, the tools would have to be well thought out so that they could fit tightly into the canvas bag, perhaps semi-nested. The shovel would be the main challenge, but it wouldn't as big as a standard shovel, closer to a trench tool.

Alternatively buying a $15 military entrenching tool (ie folding multiple position shovel), a $12 folding camp saw, a $ 12 hatchet, and $19 buck knife (it was a solid fixed blade knife) would not take up too much room in a emergency pack in your vehicle-home-ruck, they'd have better ergonomics, be better at each separate task, be way more reliable, leave you with enough spare cash you could add a $5 fire rod, a $5 multitool and a $15 small duffle bag to keep it all together as a kit for under $100 (which is 1/6 the price, better as mentioned, and adds helpful bits).
I’d be Lying if I said “I wasn’t wasn’t expecting a bigger boom” when that tree fell.
So you weren't expecting a bigger boom?
@@justken1337 no he was
It's because it was dead/ very light tree.
When a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear it? Does it play Beethoven?
Yes
Yes

Yesn't
no bro let me explain, what happens is that ...
4:45 nah we aren't walking past that chop like it wasn't the cleanest thing I've ever seen
Love the DD against the tree
usually, in life, when you need a tool, you need a specific, purposefully built tool. I don't know of any multi tool which is better than an individual tool. Even a leather man tool is only useful to a certain point and then even a leather man tool fails to be as useful as a separate tool. Fun review!
Multi tools like leather man's are time savers only. When you just need to tighten that single bolt or cut something small, the multi tool in your pocket is a lot faster then going and finding that purpose built tool. But if i'm going out camping or bushcrafting I already brought my tools with me, if its for my car the space savings don't really matter as an ax, saw and knife are not much larger. As Cody was saying, it looks pretty enough to fool some guys who don't know better.
the best example of a failed multi tool is the spork.
Nearly everything multi-purpose are worse than dedicated tools.
What suits for everything, doesn't suit for anything.
But this is. Just look at that saw compared to a silky saw, it's literally 10 times slower.
Well duh, but the whole point is that it is multi purpose. It can do many things, passably well. Not as well as dedicated tools, but if you want to carry around a hammer, a hatchet, a trenching type tool, a knife, a saw... you've just filled a backpack with junk. This thing should be able to hang from a lanyard. The best tool is the tool you have with you, not the fantastic tool you have at home and wish you had. Not saying this tool is great or anything, just saying that there are cases where the tradeoffs make multi-purpose worth it.
@@lorcro2000 Yeah it's an obvious fact, but this tool doesn't require all that much less space or provide savings over the cheaper, better tools it's trying to replace. It's a failure of a multi-tool. For less than $100 we can buy a nice hatchet/axe and military shovel. There are multi-tools like plier/wire-stripper combos that work well, but I don't think this tool does.
Edit: I totally agree, in a practical sense, a single tool that does everything worse, but with more convenience can be better. I don't think this particular tool provides any additional convenience.
@@lorcro2000 "The best tool is the tool you have with you"
That's a bad excuse to carry bad tools. The tool you have with you is the tool you take with you. There's absolutely no reason to take this 600 dollar abomination in favor of a dedicated hatchet and a saw. Let's say you take a gransfors hatchet (not a cheap axe) and a silky pocket boy. You have arguably two top of the line tools for a 3rd of the price that perform twice or three times better, weigh less and occupy roughly the same space. Ok so what about the knife and the spade? Well, first of all you should have a dedicated knife on your belt, not in the handle of your multitool. But let's say you somehow find yourself in a situation where you lost your main knife. You can use the hatchet for anything you would use the knife and you can use a sharpened stick to dig. Sure, not as good, but considering that most of the survival stuff you'd be using your multitool for is wood processing: shelter, fire, traps, other bushcraft stuff, your setup is gonna be so much better at that, it will save you a lot of precious time and energy for extra digging if you really really have to.
The point of cramming so many functions in one tool is not because you need them, it's solely to impress the hipsters that are gonna buy it.
K-Bar+Husqvarna axe and hatchet+Bahco saw+.357 revolver. That's all you need here in the Eastern woods of N. Ga.! $600? You gotta be kidding me!
It's a lot better than some of the other tools you have tested. But at $600, it probably should be. Honestly, if the price wasn't so ridiculous, it wouldn't be such a bad tool to have in an emergency. It's not as good as traditional tools, but it looks pretty compact and easy to carry with you. Definitely a whole lot better than nothing. So, if the price was good, it might be something you would throw in the trunk of your car, etc.
He has the ar because he spent 600 dollars and doesnt intend to lose it
coulda just bought another ar lol
@@sonic2005018 Yes chop down a tree with a AR so smart
@@oliverskulldog9148 Enough bullets and a bit of time and you can easily " chop" down a tree with an AR, add in a bayonet and bam, survival ar-15250
edit: I should add using an AR + enough rounds is smart since, well in a " real" survival situation energy is god and expending it to chop down a tree when your AR can might save your life. But we're also talking out our asses since I highly doubt you would end up in a survival situation with an ar-15 and 4,000 rounds of munitions. Food for though anyway.
@@ramst3d You're right....in a real survival situation most of us would be dead before we had the luxury to cut down a tree :D

I felt this was a fair and honest review.
Seems like the type of thing that if you so happen to acquire one to just throw in the tool box on the truck and forget about it until you need a hatchet for like 2 swings, or the digger for something. Kind of like a multi-tool, it doesn't do anything great, but if it's there when ya need it and you happen to have it...
