Now go and do the same to a similar Benchmade...

This test just show me that ganzo is really good edc folder knife. Well made, sharp (also with your test). For the money is a great knife (for daily jobs "cutting"). I dont have any ganzo, but I have some emersons, benchmade or spyderco who cant survive this batoning or tip test.

Folders are more meant for edc and finer tasks. And an axe is meant for splitting wood, if you have both of those there isn't much need for a fixed blade unless it's a small one to replace a folder.

I really like you guys and I watch you a lot, but if you want to be fair then do this same testing with a bunch of other folding knives too, I think you will find that they have the same kinds of problems. Folders were never made for batoning. I can even find a bunch of bushcrafters who say full tang fixed blades are not made for batoning. Hatchets and axes and froe's are made for processing wood, not knives - they will say. After saying all that. I really enjoyed the video, it was fun, just like almost all of your videos are.

Now we want to see same test on a 200-300 dollar folder too...

Damn that edge retention is amazing!!

Very entertaining.Glad you took it to the extreme.

I love ganzo, one of the best knifes I've had 🤷‍♂️

Please dont stop making vids... You guys are like a hidden gem... Your videos are amazing...

Love the big hammer test. Best knife test on KZfaq lol

What knife do you guys recommend for splitting bricks in half in a survival situation?.

now y'all should test a balisong wonder if the handles being the lock will make it farther through test before braking

damn that edge retention is crazy surprising. Sweet video as always!

Next destruction test: Cold Steel folder with tri ad lock?! Fun Video btw 👍

Great video guys

Lol love your videos boys always puts me in a good mood after I watch one you guys keep it interesting lol keep up the good work

Go Cheap? Go Mora! Mora Best bang for the Buck. Nice Vid Boyz!

Hahaha! You guys are crazy! I enjoy your videos very much!

I carry a folder for smaller bushcraft/survival chores like food prep, cleaning small game and fish, even feather sticking. For batoning and other chores, I use my fixed blades but it saves the edges on both using 2 knives

very entertaining guys :D keep going!!!!!!!!!!

i love your channel. dont stop making vids

Thanks for putting me off Folders altogether, however my two full tang blades are tried and well tested. Good work, regards Guys.

Ahaha Love yours videos guys !!

You guys are so awesome. :) At least the knife was sharp.

I originally thought it's pretty unfair to compare a folder to a fixed blade, but it's actually really interesting and important to see the difference this way.

Dbk, really learn what knife to use for the job!

Try this with a lockback

Whahahahaaaaaa Koekoek jongens. Keep it up. ;)

I have a 15$ outland folder that with a liner lock that dosnt fail when a baton with it

folders are GREAT for fiddling around with for boredom. I know too many knife nuts on many of the forums love to flick open knives for fun. Ability to conceal and keep a low profile is also nice around sheeple. Most knife guys I'm close with live in the city like me, and we aren't allowed to openly carry fixed blades which also changes circumstances.

very funny thanks for the video

Funny! I've never seen them do those kind of ridiculous tests with a $ 200 pocket knife.

Gotcha, we will stick with our fixed blades. No folders, nonono... What is better than a 4" fixed? Yes, a 6" fixed ;) or even more

I use many folders for battoning and all of them have different locking mechanisms that that one, it may just be that specific mechanism

You guys should put Cold Steel folders to the test!

You guys should try this again with the newer F series ganzo firebirds

You should do this with a cold steel folder.

Please do the same test with the Benchmade knife it was a copy of and see how well it survives. I don't like the Axis lock on Ganzo's as they are usually tight and require adjustment and some have weak lock up as yours displayed. Good that the edge retention is there. Enjoyed it.

lol I love yalls vids

Folders don't meet your needs. Great video. I laughed my ass off. Just got my first Ganzo. Nice to know it keeps an edge even in pieces. You guys have the most entertaining channel on bushcraft and survival. Very amazed at your advanced skills. Try that stuff with a First Edge 5050. It is a beast used by cold weather Navy Seals.

wow, kinda surprised it hold up untill the 3 hit

LOL goed gedaan jongens 🖒

My victorianox hunter pro can do fixed blade batoning actually very well, only problem is cannot hit the handle, but it does the job, and it's been doing it well so far

You should do a destruction test on an opinel

You guys should test a balisong butterfly knife

you guys should review the benchmade nimravus!

You should do this to one of your precious falknivens.

Try those same tests on a Cold Steel folding knife with a tri-ad lock.

Just got to say it, try all these tests with any cold steel folder that have a lock back and you will be surprised

Who batons with a folder anyway !

The better for the price, do the same tests with the benchmade hk14715.

Here in Eastern NC you can carry any size knife as long as it folds only way to carry a fixed blade is while hunting fishing or camping and then it must be in plain sight...

try Cold Steel Finn Wolf!

Doen jullie ook testen met rugtassen?

Delta 3v 👍👍

Can you guys try the buck 110 as it is a pretty tough lock and has decent price and steel

do the cold steel Finn wolf that will hold up and the blade is a Scandi grind so you can convex it and then test it and i think it will do very well with light batoning I baton with mine when I'm making a fire

i like your way answering almost all questions about a purpose of this video. Next time i wait you to do batoning with a Benchmade Adamas, or the real Heckler & Koch 14715 (original knife of ganzo copy). Because this axis lock is not original, the benchmade is developer of axis lock and owing a patent for it. It'll be much different than Ganzo's axis. And i wish you will do a batoning with a cold steel knives with CTS-XHP steel and most robust locking mechanism for a folder the Tri-Ad Lock in the future.

you guys should sell fire steals and t shirts

Lol. You made your point well.

A suggestion: test some of the Cold Steel folders with Tri-Ad Lock. They claim it's unbeatable.

What do you guys think of the ruko brand

try a cold steel recon 1 xL or voyager xL the lock won't break when you baton a reasonable sized piece of wood

This is why i only get good linerlocks/framelocks or fixed blades :p

Now, if you dare, do the same thing with Buck, Benchmade, and Spiderco, then laugh😏

hi, mates. first i have to thank you for your enjoyable work. i´ve ran across your videos like a week ago, and they are highly inspiring and entertaining as well, as your friendship looks to me. second it´s great to find such an internet popular supporters for moraknives which i´m a great fan myself. and third is i´d be pleased to read your opinion about very possible damage i´m about to cause to my main knife :).. a few years back i decided between f1 and j. v. peltonen´s sissipuukko m07 (if you´re a bit familiar with it), but now i´m a little confused about my previous choice. the supreme leather sheath, a little longer blade and a non-commercial brand were the reasons i prefered the m07. afterall it´s a great worker, but right now i´m thinking about modificating the blade more like the f1 length and shape... what do you guys thing about this kind of "improvement" to a knife in general. i love knives and i sure like to own some more of them, but i don´t like the idea to use one and keep the others in a drawer, and that´s why i´d better modificate it to my preferences before i buy a new one. do you have such an experience of your own to advice in such a way? with best wishes mjk

Try a cold steel Rajah 2 it is a impressive folding knife

ahahah funny vid guys!!! please do a detailed video on convex sharpening w stone!! I cant seem to get good convex without the sandpaper method but I prefer stones for scandi I want to learn convex w stone :) keep up w the good work! !

try the 290 druid from steel will

Hi!!! May be you make video about the destruction mora kansbol vs outdoor 2000, please...

try the cold steel Finn wolf folder, I think you'll like it!!!! cheep also!

Poor ganzo.. I love those knives! If I was a rich man I would buy you each a Fällkniven PXL. I bet that would change your philosophy about folders.The blade is almost as thick as my F1 and of similiar lenght. The liner lock is more than twice as thick as most folders and the pivot too. Asif that wasnt enough the blade also rests on a second 3-4mm round steel pin that is welded onto the liner beneath the bolsters (that in turn I believe are friction welded on to the liner). The micarta scales are pretty much indestructable both to blunt force and heat and the laminated 3G blade takes and hold an edge like no bodys business. (To be honest mine was a bit rough out of the box which led to a major argument with fällkniven. But once I got my hands on a good one it quickly became a favorite.) Sadly I'm not a millionaire. And its a €400 knife (but if you see my wife divide that number by 10) so I cant get you one. But it stands to prove, reliable folders excist and the knife most likely to become your survival knife is the one you have on you all the time, a bomb proof folder is a pretty good investment.

Batoning with a folder... well, maybe with a cold steel. You can use a folder as a bushcraft knife but of corse not the same way as a fixed blade

Barbariens!

LOL, they killed the Ganzo.

if your going to test a folder then you should test a benchmade 940 or griptillian

Maybe try a frame lock knife?

So try the ganzo fixed blades!?!?!

Destroy a Tree Frog Bushcraft folder

This shows the Ganzo 440C heat treat is very decent. Survived such abuse through stone and steel, still cut paper. And even take pellet gun shots. Ive seen other videos you guys done of supersteel break under less abuse. So the ganzo is a great edc. Lose it, wont cry as hard as a 700 knife. Just another 20 bucks. So whar if you got to sharpen everyday. A few passes on the diamond stone, a few strops on chromium oxide leather and then razor sharp. The super steel, imho, as better for firesteel scraping as it doesnt dull due to the high vanadium carbides.

Hey guys any chance you could do the same tests on the original folder, the buck 110? I think it would be a popular video and most American knife guys have had direct experience with the classic.

Great sniffing video...

You guys get a lof of hate comments on this video, the title literally says "Destruction test" gmon guys! If this video proves anything, is that 440C is underrated, the edge retention really surprised me

I bet u to try cold Steel foldable knifes

I like Ganzo because they are one of the good under 20 bucks knife u cn buy.

Hi!!! Sorry about my answer, not time. What you say about cs master hunter vg1 and falkniven f1. What better?

test a tops/BUCK short NIGHTHAWK

Yes, maar julle Hollanders kan ‘n mes deur julle gat trek! 😂

Just subbed to your channel yesterday, great videos! I was wondering how a Cold Steel folder would hold up to bushcrafting? They're always shouting about how tough their folders are. Also, I had a Buck 110 Hunter since I was a kid, and the tip broke just like on your Ganzo. Buck's 440c is supposed to be tougher than most, but I guess it's a bit brittle. I heard that high-carbon steels are more brittle than others, and shouldn't be used for prying, but you said that tip breakage shouldn't happen with any knife. Every time you baton on the tip of a knife, I cringe... but I guess they're made to stand up to that?

Folders are fine in the “big city” but if your outback/in the woods you need a fixed blade, as you demonstrate.

There is only ONE folding knife worth considering for you two. It is the Battle Horse Knives Tree Frog! A folder that is actually as strong as a fixed blade. I LOVE mine, it is a Super blade! Please look it up. If you need one for testing let me know....as long as you send it back!

did that ones lock fully engage? i find if u buy those knock off axis lock knives u have to check the lock pin engagement and if it is not 100% take it apart and file the blade a little bit so that the pin engages otherwise its not really safe imo.. i bought 4 different elan ones in 8cr23mov and only one came with full lock up.

Nice video but If it cost $5 shipped than it only cost $.50 to make. Fixed blade or folder is your choice but my Benchmade folder would never fail like that or I would not carry it.

Hey DBK,i have a question:what do you think of the Opinel knives?

Try the cold steel recon 1 knife of any size I don't think you'll break it

I agree folders are less than ideal for bushcrafting... but please keep in mind by no means is this cheap chines clone a good representation of what folders are capable of. I would be curious to see the same tests done on something like a Cold Steel Large Voyager or Large Recon one clip. As far as lock strength goes, Cold Steel is among the strongest, at lest production wise. And they aren't all that expensive.

Mr destruction

Do a cold steel destruction.

Ganzo hunting

Test a strider 😂 Greetings from germany
