• Testing the Zombie Too...
** ZT Reaver Cleaver - Specifications **
Overall length: 79 cm (31'')
Blade length: 46 cm (18'')
Spine thickness: 5 mm (1/5'')
Weight: 1.6 kg (3 lbs 10 oz)
Blade material: 5160 spring steel
Heat treatment: Hardness of 54 HRC
Price: $374.95
** Where to get it **
www.zombietools.net/shop/reave...
** Pros / Cons **
+ Impressively powerful in chopping and cutting
+ Unique post-apocalyptic wasteland look
+ Extremely tough and durable
+ Surprisingly agile due to the long handle
- Very heavy for the size
- Handle wrapping can be rough on the hands
- Relatively high price
** Verdict **
This stylish undead killer is quite the beast in terms of raw power and toughness. It's inspired by the Chinese dadao and offers amazing cutting performance. The design and finish is very unique, and if you like exactly this kind of aesthetic there is currently no alternative that I'm aware of.
The price may seem steep to some but it's made in the USA and you do get good value for the money. I sure wouldn't mind giving some of the other models a try as well.

@danieloceansmith3156 5 жыл бұрын
MisterDeth0 or actually a pretty usable camping tool! Decent enough for making firewood, tinder, probably good at cutting up meat, as well as a decent firepoker, and a lot of other makeshift uses. Maybe not good enough for fighting off a bear or killing an animal now, but if you have it in your car as an “in case of emergency look badass” thing, it would definitely have its uses.... just keep a rubber mallet with it and it should be fine

And as crazy as it sounds, if I had the cash, I'd definitely consider getting one of these, even with the weight it has. It has a rather nice profile, and one can't help but be impressed with such a beastly chopper. Though to be honest, the two ZT weapons that I'm really interested in are the Rat Bastard and the Diphos.

Well, ok, they shoot .50 cal at people, or Apache 30 mm etc etc. But you could also just drop a tsar bomba on their heads (without detonating, just to crush and humiliate), but there got to be a threshold of enough is enough somewhere xD

@boycotgugle3040 8 жыл бұрын
Spurgeon Holloman None of these is a battle rifle. It's a defined term, and does *not* mean a rifle used in battle. Think warship vs battleship. Kind of different, eh? A frigate is a warship but no battleship. An AK is a combat rifle, but no battle rifle. The guns in your link are assault rifles, or maybe combat rifles, but no battle rifles. "Battle rifles" are weapons like the Mosin Nagant, Lee-Enfield, Mauser k98 etc., which were designed for single shot/bolt action at very distant targets. That's why today one might call these (in case there's a scope fitted) sniper rifles. But 100 years ago, every soldier had one of these high powered ones. The AK round is significantly less powerful, otherwise it would tear of your arm on full auto (and you wouldn't hit a thing).

Despite the damage to the cleaver being terrible, you have made something that would be more useful in close quarters combat. It has lost the intimidation factor that it had before, but would now be much more agile indoors or in up close combat. I am not saying that anyone should do this with their weapon, I am just making lemonade from lemons.

That was a great review! One thing I also like about the cleaver is the flat pommel end for pounding and the angles built into the pommel, you could do some damage with them if you get rushed. BTW, my main blades are a pulaski, a folding shovel, a Ka-Bar, and a Buck Folding Hunter with a 3 3/4" blade. They are all I need in Idaho, although I am considering a decent machete, perhaps one with a hand guard like a cutlass. In case I meet a zombie in the woods!

The finish difference between the bevel and the flat is due to the steel's as-forged finish left on the blade stock. It has a bit of dimpling left by the forging on the flats, so the finish they apply sticks better and looks better on the flats than it does on the machine finished bevels.

***** I was actually going to send it as a gift, but when you expressed interest in getting something else I gave it to someone else. This is . . . rather tragic.

dam! just to give u a idea of the power of a 7.62x39 its has about 1400 ft lbs at the muzzle, a 9mm is about 350 ft lbs,a 40 s&w is about 525 ft lbs, a 44 mag is around 900-1000 ft lbs. be glad you didn't use a 7.62 x 51 that's about 2,600 ft lbs lol

Skall himself has said having no guard doesnt mean it's less good. This reaver is perhaps deadlier than most high-quality swords in a wielder skilled to use it. The strength it possesses should more than make up for its weaknesses if well used.

If you had the sword hanging with a string, I wonder if it would deflect rather than shatter.

I got my beautiful kukri machete from amazon and it’s a bit heavy by I couldn’t have been happier because I paid less for it than I was supposed to 😂. I got a cheaper version and they ended up giving me the wrong one but the “wrong one” was a whole lot more expensive than the one I ordered and it was hand made and beautifully crafted

You don't have to be a smart ass about it. It's the same shit just slightly different details and only shoots semi. It even fires the same calibur of round. It's like me saying look at that M16. No that's actually an AR-15. Same shit
@JamesLPlummer 8 жыл бұрын
The SKS was designed by a different man, years before the AK, used a different action, had an internal magazine fed by a stripper clip and really only had one similarity to the AK, which was the round it was chambered in. No it was absolutely not the same as calling an M16 an AR-15. The SKS and AK are completely different rifles.
@kyokushindabomb 8 жыл бұрын
James TheWulfMan Plummer my bad for the sks comparison, for some reason i thought you and Skall said AKS. The short part in the video where Skall brought the rifle up looked like the front of an AKS-74 since they're all black as well. My mistake

Do you have some quick thoughts/ points about ZTs The Reaper? Also thanks for Directing me to TZs website I love this kind of Post setting for blades as it's most likely the closest as we will get to a time when blades will return as a main weapon. Love what you do and I have learned so much from watching your videos. I look forward to seeing what blades and fun the future brings.

This just reminds me of what I have always considered my go to zombie apocalypse weapon. A modified scythe. Just a really heavy weighted scythe. Find higher ground and just sweep for necks. On equal footing go for ankles and knees. Push comes to shove just use it as a skull stabber.
