Good rundown of these models, thanks. I’m not the biggest fan of black knives /guns either, but Bark River’s black Micarta is really a nice dark brown, and I can more than live with it.

You certainly are a knife tip repair expert. Great jobs on those broken tips. I liked that sheath you made as well. Thanks for sharing your preferences with us.

The Enzo trapper sheath is $25 with dangler and works great for edc small blades. Great for the money.

This spring my goto knife for hikes was the Real Steel Bushcrafter Plus. That knife fits my hand very well and I like the length and grind of the blade. It does however come with a rather hideous, way too large nylon sheath. My edc knife is a Victorinox Evolution 14. Carrying a fixed blade knife to the office is unwise, where I live. But not illegal, yet.

Great video man. No need to apologize, life happens. I hit that bell months ago 👍🏼

BR Bird & Trout...very delicate knife...same sheath (style) with the rivet at the bottom...tip broke off...yeah, they need to do some thinking on that.

My most used knives are the bark river cub in 3v and also am LT Wright AEB-L GP medium but the one I use the most when I know I'm going to really be abusive is the benchmade 200 puuko in 3v because they're so inexpensive and I got a 1st production run and it is still going strong after literally kicking the snot out of it.... For larger choppers I like my Gavko knifechette in S7 or my American Knife Co Denali in A2 it is a great all arounder slightly larger knife that is agile enough to do smaller knife tasks yet chops with the big boys!

Thanks for the vid, are those Ultralite Bushcrafter sheaths you ordered the same as the Mini Northstar ones? DLT has ones that look exactly like them, but they sell it as the Mini Northstar…

The color black is everywhere in nature. What are you talking about

How's the handle on the mini aurora? Why do you love the Ultra Lite Bushcraft over the M.A? Just trying to decide between the two :)

Great video mate, I would like to see you using the ULB on some game animals to see how it goes. I'm looking to buy one to use for hunting and camping. Cheers from New Zealand

I'm considering the UL bushcraft or the mini aurora, for camping trekking fishing some bushcraft, it will be the one all purpose go to knife, I find plenty of videos about the UL bushcraft but little about the mini aurora, What do you think about the performance of the mini aurora?

At 2:20 he stop flapping he s gums

Long time no see😁

He's back! Thanks for the video BTW, if you are still looking, I have in the box FHG ULB in green micarta I'm looking to trade.

I like BRKT knives. I have had an Aurora and a couple others, but I dont like how they do their scales. I prefer the standard coke bottle shape, fatter up top and thinned by the rear. BRKT does the opposite, and I feel like I lose control with them like that.

Too much time talking with nothing to look at...causes quite A few to leave or constantly fast-forward. Nice array man👍🏼

Beautiful knives. Seems you are a serious knife user. You havr hands like me. large and wide. So I’m curious why don’t you go for one size (or two) bigger? They would sit in your hand better I believe and a couple of extra ounces don’t seem to bother you. BR Aurora, BR Bushcrafter, BR Mini Kephart, Enzo Badger, Enzo Trapper, Mora Kansbol (best for delicate games like rabbits and fishes)

Do you notice a difference in blade performance between LTs and BR? I'm kicking around putting a LT next gen or genesis on top of my list because I love those thumb scallops.

3v is suppose to be tougher then a2... weird

hope the videos are back to stay.

Ever tried Bark River Puukko?

Bark river knives are frickin rubbish,have you no respect for your self.I would not have one of those knives near me boss.One word unpossible.Mora Garbergs every time.👍🤡
