Good review, Chris and Will. That said, here's some facts for Will: Density of CPM 3V = 0.280 lb/ cu in. D2 = 0.278 lb/ cu in. 1095 hi carbon steel = 0.284 lb/ cu in. So, 6/1000 of a pound or 96/1000 of an ounce, in a cubic inch of steel of difference from lightest to heaviest. And, D2 is lighter than CPM 3V. You can't tell the difference by holding a knife. For all practical purposes the densities are the SAME.
And, Will, once again, if you put a thigh strap on a dangler sheath you can remove and replace the knife with one hand and no problems with the sheath moving...as if you didn't know.
I hate thigh straps bro thanks for the comment
LOL, I don't even notice them.
I remember getting into survival over 25 years ago
It was just a usmc knife with half the guard removed and a Swiss Army knife
I like that . One of the best I've seen in a while. Awesome sheath.
I absolutely love my cub. From the ergonomics of the handles to the blade geometry it's a really great knife.i would highly recommend it.
Love the music and you two together is golden!
I have never touched that knife, but I already love it. I just know. Thanks for showing it. You cannot go wrong with Bark River knives.
Awesome intro song to my favorite Bark River.... The Cub just looks so BAD ASS!!!! Love my Cub! Preparedmind101 is the best channel on CZcams!!!!!
LOVE the tunes brother!! Oh, the knife too.
As far as the comments about the steel being lighter, etc. there’s something about this knife where when you have it hand, you understand! Pretty magically put together knife. Thanks for the video...got mine today.
Love your videos, great knives. What is the make and model of the neck knife your friend is carrying? The one with the orange scales.
hey man keep up the good work, my wife and I love watching your videos. was saving up for a honey badger but missed out on getting one. but the BR cub was my strong second. After seeing this video I'm all in. Getting one asap, just wanted to say yeah, Ohio weather sucks right now but it'll get better for us Ohioans. thanks again for all the good info.
The whole package !!! Very nice !!! Bark River always issues a quality leather sheath with the knife , great video !
Great video good job Will .
I know it’s a little older video, but you’ve got me on Bark River for sure. My Bushcrafter is the best outdoors knife I’ve ever used (full convex, not the Scandi-convex). I don’t really need a bigger knife, I have a Ken Onion Outcast with my own grind on it, but despite that knifes excellent factory kydex sheath, I am starting to consider doing a yellow hawk companion system with my BR bushcrafter and the Outcast.
I quickly took the previous one down because I realized my little extended intro would have gotten me popped in copyright. Can't be that long.
PREPAREDMIND101 Will is such a baby! 3v is to hard, don't test your knife with your eye balls, geeeesh!
André Roy eye ball test is the only way to be sure
convex I know. Some people will never learn.
PREPAREDMIND101 have them send u a bravo survivor. Really curious to see how it's chops being a 7" blade and like .27 or whatever
You certainly do not play FFDP at a low volume. I miss these types of videos. You and Will hanging out joking around and showing us "stuff". I totally forgot about that tahoma field knife eyeball test.
Ever considered the condor neonessmuk? Looks like a great knife bu i haven't seen anything about it anywhere.
I couldn't find the last video you talked about anchor Chargers on so you have the new Note 8 which I think it comes with the same kind of what's it lightning charger that the pixel 2 does how do you hook up Anker charger to your phone then cuz mine didn't come with any kind of USB cables
Good review... love the knife
On the fence with the cub vs the bushcrafter 2. Any advice
Just ordered mine in blue g10. Stoked!!!
I just got this knife a few weeks ago. Thus far, it's been awesome. Nothing about this knife (or sheath) will disappoint. Yes, it's a bit more $$$ but worth every penny.
Hey Chris, do you know what's up with your website?
I just pulled the trigger and got a Cub from DLT trading. All the bark river cubs are not located the the section under "Cub" when you choose the section off of their main list. Do a search for "Bark River Cub" and others showed up that were not on the original list. thats how i found a dark curly maple with 3 mosaic pins instead of the 1 center pin and cheaper than most. happy hunting.
Just got emailed today, the cub is now back in stock (the one's with the black canvas micarta and red liners) just pulled the trigger. Of late, Iv'e been purchasing folders, now its time to get my second favorite fixed. The Honey Badger has still eluded me seems to sell out in literally a minute after its in stock.
Very easy to sharpen now a days with the nice diamond stones
Thanks for amazing knivs video al time
I love CPM3V along with a lot of the other "super steels" (as I own a ton), but I've started to move back toward high carbon blades because of the ease of maintenance in the field. As Will points out in this video, if you don't keep that edge maintained, it's a pain in the ass to sharpen in the field. Also, IMHO I cannot personally tell much of a difference in toughness and edge retention between something like A2, O1 or 1095 and 3V as it pertains to field use.
I've never had an issue. A few swipes on ceramic is all it takes.
PREPAREDMIND101 for example, I can touch my LT Wright GNS in 3V up with no issue as long as I don't let it get super dull. All I was pointing out is that it's significantly easier to maintain a non "super steel" knife in the field.
Ceramic and a small strop loaded up with bark river diamond paste 5 mc. Works great in the field. Or ceramic alone. Spyderco has a great lil ceramic 2 sided hone. about 5" long 1" wide comes in a leather pouch. I just load up one side of the pouch with bark rivers black compound, and the other side with there diamond paste. Isn't as good as a real strop. But works great after you get used to the right angle, and pressure.
Looks like a really great knife all the way around and that sheath is pretty spectacular. Good video, you guys work really well together and always seem to have fun when you do. On that note I'm going to throw this out there as something for the two of you to consider doing... You guys should create a new channel for posting videos that you make together and call it; "Mind Mantis 2in1" or maybe "Mind vs. Mantis: 2in1", or something along those lines. Of course the name possibilities are endless but the logo possibilities for "Mind/Mantis" combinations are kind of awesome. Video possibilities might be things along the lines of you guys comparing the usefulness of different gear, and of course knives, from your two differing perspectives; preparedness vs. bush crafting. I've had that bubbling around in my head for a couple of months now but seeing you guys working together again on this one finally got me to put it out there for you to consider.
Definitely a sweet blade.
Bark River cub with a JX5 would make a great pair to do anything you need in the woods.
Beautiful knife!
Very nice thank you for the video
Finally a five inch blade that looks good, made in America and out of a good steel. My BK15 is starting to get a little tired
Absolutly beautyfull, and , as you said, what a sheath!!
Love the intro song
Beautiful knife.
Bark river bravo survivor. Thoughts?
I reside near Bark River and I recently won a Bark River Vest Pocket Bowie C in a raffle and its really badass!
I own one Bark River knife and one word I can use to describe it, quality.
just got one the camo one I love it
Cool, glad you finally got to the cub vid. Loved mine and use it! BRK#cubclub
Ok Chris you keep this up and your gonna have to release a PM101 soundtrack! The intro have sick lately!🤘👊👍
Now I want one... They need to make an LT version in Cruwear of this beast!
Lol!!!!! CPM3V is lighter than other steels!! It must have added helium. I don’t know how Will says that with a straight face. You should put in a disclaimer though. There are a few gullible folks that might believe and repeat that.
IDK why he thinks that.
He wasn't joking??
I'm just going to assume he means because you can use thinner stock due to extra strength. Maybe, hopefully
If he's not joking, maybe it's just how Bark River skeletonizes their tangs for balance that makes them feel light, as opposed to the unskeletonized tangs of LTWK?
big visk Right after he said that he said this knife is pretty thick...
Hi Chris. How does the Cub's handle fill out your hand compared to your Bravo 1 LT? Does the Cub have more girth in the handle than your Bravo 1 LT?
It's rounder than the Bravo handles
Thanks, Chris.
please test the msk1
Beautiful knife 👍🏼🇺🇸
Love my cub as well.
The only thing that I did not like about my cub's sheath is the fact they did not cover the rivet inside of the belt loop so it would scratch the hell out of my top pin if I did not cover it with some tape...
Chris absolutely bleeping love The 5 finger death punch But again please straighten the sunglasses on your head, You've got to get it together man.lol
I love mine too!
Which is a problem cause now I want to buy another one.
new subscriber here, great review!
I’m dying the first three minutes lol. Nothing like having your friend calling you a jack ass on camera.
Awesome knife, might pick one up but idk... we will see.
Hey Chris how is he doing health wise, I have not seen or heard any updates since he posted the video selling off all his gear due to declining health issues??? I donated $50 to him n hope it helped...
Final got around and got a cub and flipping love it. I have about a dozen different Bark Rivers and this one will be with me until I croak.😂😂
"Your neck's very sensitive."
"What?!"
LOL
God damn it that f****ing intro music Chris. I'm at work damn it!
The sheath retains a knife without a guard? You can pull it straight out without undoing the snap.
Just got my cub. Yes, you can pull the knife out without undoing the snap.
@@gregjames9156 Tactical huh
Love the cub and sheath. However I removed the straps for scout carry given the blade isn't held in with any sort of retention other than the strap.
Still looks cool
PREPAREDMIND101 Oh FOR SURE! It definitely does not look as cool with out em on there. But they kept getting caught on my damn seat belt lol
Mine is supposed to arrive today. Ivory micarta. Yes it will be bad ass. You're costing me a lot of money Tanner!
Damn another knife I want now. Thanks Tanner.
Awesome knife! I want!
Chris Gilliam out of mine too but we can dream! Lol
i had one, liked it, but it didnt beat out my aurora 2. decided to sell the cub and buy a strike force 2, now thats a knife
That is one good looking knife. For me, I would prefer it in A2 like my other Bark Rivers, as it’s a good steel and more affordable.
Bob Wampler ya I like a2 steel I’d rather have that then 01 steel
Winkler field knife review would be awesome.
Is it me or is the knife put in as if it would be left scout carry? Or can you just put the knife in both ways?
Ambidextrous
Cool thanks.
Dmt diamond paste will get your 3v steel knife back into shape in no time and this is from personal experience.
This is my next purchase.
She's a beauty!
Great knives, I love mine...BUT, I DO NOT trust it for stabbing, needs 1/4" more depth/length added to the lower hilt to keep fingers away from the edge! Otherwise an AWESOME design...I do trust my Honey Badger. __Anyhooo, just my mileage. Great video, thank you for all the work you do to show gear to us!
Keep the intro music 👍🤘
Fucking love that sheath, you say handle is half the knife which it is! But when you get that perfect storm, when everything all lines up handle, blade and sheath it just immediately becomes a go to favorite and the more you use a knife the more you either love it or hate it, so looks like so far so good but once you've had it for a few months maybe come back to it and let me know/ us know how it performs because this is a knife I am definitely interested in.
William Russell it's most certainly one to pick up. I had always wanted a BRK and when I saw this model I had to pick one up. you WILL NOT be sorry if u do.
Bravo survivor review still coming up?
I never had that knife.
It looked at me
Yeah this knife shall be mine... All mine.
So they've just reduced a bit of the dark timber bark river grizzly and made a cub. Used Pete Kohler's design made it smaller and now making a shit load off it. I hope he gets something out of the deal.
Yeah ...no. The Cub was originally designed by Mike to go along with the Grizzly. They parted amicably and the Cub is its own knife.
agreed, not about the knife, about the music.
I prefer a drop point. Like an Afghan.
The volume of this video is even throughout the entire video, this the way you are supposed to upload.
You can get hey llama to pack your stuff in lol
Where can you get the sheer strips?
Go back a few videos
Thanks!
Beautiful blade 😁 must say i fancy one
Feel it, touch it, squeeze it
Green hell!!!
If your working all day using a knife change profession . I love Bark river knives. I just collect them. Instead of banging on a $400 knife my go to knife is Kabar knife inexpensive and will do the job imo
“3V is lighter”?
What are you talking about? It has the same density as any other knife steel.
Make a BK7 in 3v
Eyy!!
I feel this design reminds me of Carothers Knives.
Ok....?
PREPAREDMIND101 you’re welcome? 🤣
It blows me that will makes 3v look so light it’s really not that much lighter ... I mean not noticeable but will because he doesn’t particularly like 3v I guess wants to make it look super light but people it’s really not that much difference ... there’s more of a diff on edge retention and toughness of the steel which you should talk about rather then a weight which really isn’t noticeable at all
I make jokes about it in the video I'm about to make live in a minute
Chris I lmao when I seen that crybaby, rotf bro! I still want the Cub, getting one ASAP, you rule & all hail jessx.
Ahh yes the ole thumb assit with the tip...
I can't afford it
"Technique" he needs to relax 😂 about "knowing more"
It does look awesome I agree I love my cub #cubclub
SC bushcraft backwoods what a place like you doin in a guy like this? Wait a second.......
Josh Johnson wait....huh?!. Dude go to my Channel and get into my give away
SC bushcraft backwoods Lol it's a suedo deadpool reference. When he meets the girl he says to her what's a place like u doin in a girl like this.
Josh Johnson ah I see.....I know absolutely nothing about Deadpool lol
SC bushcraft backwoods ......man.....thats the kinda shit make you lose a sub RIGHT QUICK AND IN A HURRY! Lmao, jk jk. But man deadpool is Fucking hilarious.
Yeah, that 3V is so light it will even FLOAT on water. True fact! Don't believe me? Take that knife to a deep body of water and just toss it in. Trust me on this...
My knife and it wasn't me that said it, so no.... I'll not be doing that!

Yeh, I've noticed that you've been putting a portion of copyrighted music in your title animation. I don't know how long a copyrighted sample has to be before it becomes a copyright strike. What I've done in the past is either find something that is out of copyright or simply strum something on my guitar and use that😀
Over 30 seconds.
PREPAREDMIND101 I was looking at your channel as far back as 5 years and you've come along way in that time.
If you only have $ 30.00 it's CIMA 1 for you guys and gals .
Hi Chris. Im Scott. Love your videos. Check out #osborneknives Richard is out of Ok. He built me two beauties. One is a light to med chopper or gen purose knife similar to tops silent hero. But i added some personal touches that mean a lot to soldiers. Its made from great steel. Heat treated and cryo too. Its a killer. Its on my fb and ig. Check it out. Thx scott. Love your vids. Keep them coming.
I had to go get my dad because he did not say the name even if he did I did not here him
