You'll see stuff from Cold Steel, Benchmade, Ontario, Ka-Bar, Aranyik, Kailash, Zombie Tools, Esee and more. In this videos you'll see chopping, batoning, fire starting, extreme survival skills, batoning, knees, hacking, and slashing.

    It just occurred to me while watching this mix of older and newer footage that you're like the Gene Hackman of knife videos. The same way that Gene always looks 50 years old, no matter what era movie you're watching, the same can be said of AKB. You've ALWAYS looked like you're 40, whether it's one of your very first videos, or a current one. So, congratulations, I guess?

    Honoured to make a podium finish! We've got some new big boys coming out in the next couple of months- I know you said the fixed blade collection is finished but i think if we sent something your way you could squeeze it in the chest ;)
    I'm increasingly jealous of the variety of chopping mediums in your yard- all you need is a giant prickly pear patch to pretend to be a ninja in and you'd just about be able to charge entry.
    Take care,
    Andrew and the team at Kailash.

    Kailash or what ever its called kukris or khukuris or what ever they are called seems fucking rad.

I think most of the people calling them "tourist" kukris are about as clueless as rest of us when it comes some wrong way bent piece of blade from fucking nepal of all places. Well i love that they love this odd knife so much its on their flag or some shit. Godspeed nepal, and you too bro

    I use the Svôrd Golok and the Vuresteleka Skrama 240 for choppers.
    I've noticed that out of the box the Golok far excelled clearing grasses, other "greenery", softwoods, and green wood more than the Skrama.
    The Skrama, (still capable in the above, don't get me wrong) performed better on dry brush and dry wood.
    I figure it makes sense. The golok is designed for wet, lush, green jungle green growth while the Finnish Skrama is meant for harder woods.

    I've owned many khuks, goloks, parang, & machetes in my day, but much to the disgust of my fellow knife people, these days when I have any sort of limbing or clearing or chopping to do, I grab a Fiskars brush axe that I sharpened to almost a 'scandi grind' or 'sabre-convex'. Lightweight, but good reach, and glides through stuff easier than I'd have expected.
