I like corkscrew because it can do more than phillips on the back. Here are just some of useful tips it can be done with it: 1. Opens corked bottles (duh!) 2. Untie knots. 3. Pry the battery out of a cell phone. 4. Screw it into a wall and hang your coat on the SAK. 5. Staple remover. 6. Smooth out the hole you just made with the reamer. 7. Clear clogged faucet sprayer. 8. Bicycle tire valve tool. 9. Holds the micro screwdriver. 10. Pick gravel out of tires. 11. Rip open a blister package. 12. Ice pick. 13. Mark a pilot hole. 14. Clean mud out of shoe soles. 15. Knot the end of a cord. Thread it through the corkscrew. Handle. 16. Pop balloons. 17. Aides in sewing. 18. Clean mud out of sprinkler heads. 19. Push used snare wire through it, to straighten out the wire and remove coils or kinks. 20. Pulls the drain plug out of a tub. 21. Open the corkscrew and screw it tightly into a broomstick-thickness stick. Now open the blade. Tie it securely. Survival spear for fishing. 22. Hang the SAK from a piece of cordage from the ceiling. Plumb bob (I have the middle of the handle marked on one mine). 23. Corkscrew + a metal lid = a filter or wire mesh for cooking. 24. Carry a chunk of C4. 25. Pull frozen shoestrings tight, or help loosen them. 26. Helps get the innards out of a squirrel. 27. Gets the candle stub out of a candle holder. 28. Start fights on multitool forums. 29. Remove the fuel filter from a lawn mower. 30. Although the new corkscrews are 4 turns, you can use them for range estimation. 31. O-ring remover for your flashlights. 32. Pry out partially-exposed nails. 33. Tighten the apron strings on a wrestling ring. 34. The inside diameter of the corkscrew is 1/4". I'm sure you know what you can do with this. 35. Open just a small hole in a coconut. 36. Lift stuck items out of boxes. 37. Fish the tape out of a clogged VHS tape. 38. Remove patches from a flintlock gun. 39. Remove the inside of a shotgun shell, making a blank. Remove the wad and powder too. 40. If you don't want the mini screwdriver, the corkscrew can hold a ferro rod. 41. Tap a tree for sap. 42. Undo zip ties without breaking them. ✌️😉

I swear to God, Cuervo could write the soundtrack to a Tarantino movie without even trying! Damn his style is awesome.

Thank you for the video and another shout out for putting Cuevos songs on as a subtitle.

it's bad to open twist offs with a bottle opener as you can chip off the threads on the bottle and push them into the bottle.

I has been waiting for this review for months! Really enjoying the content. I wasn't not sure if i would buy one of these Ruike multitool, been eyeing them since 2 years. I have a Victorinox Hunter and i must admit it's been my "outdoor folding knife" since then. It's a 111mm (Trekker size and same thickness) with a locking blade, a gutting blade (serrated round blade similar to the rescue blade of the Ruike but open fully), a combo tool (bottle and can opener), a good length wood saw and on the back it got a corkscrew and a reamer/awl. Like you, the majors things i would prefer on a Ruike are: better steel, better tweezer and the pocket clip. I think I'm waiting for a model with the tools i would need from Ruike to buy one... but they don't make a lot of new multitools compared to folding knives... Great review... and freat music!

Another great review, another great camp diner, another great video!

Cheers to both of you! Badass multitool. 🤘

Damn those tacos looked good, bro! So I've become a huge fan of the Ruike (I believe it is pronounced "rayk" per their website) Jager F118. It's a great all-around knife that hits all the criteria that I look for in an outdoors fixed blade. As for the corkscrew on that L32, it does make a good substitute for a marlinspike when it comes to untying stingy knots. Another awesome video and, SALUD, gentlemen!

Ruike makes good stuff. I no longer buy Chinese made knives, but for people where that isn't an issue, I would recommend ruike for a good, budget option.

Watch out for the screwdriver tip on the rescue cutter! The angle makes it slam shut if you apply pressure! And it cuts deep if your finger happens to be in the way, don't ask me how I know! Take care Graham

I've been a Victorinox guy for thirty years and I find that I depend heavily on the awl and can opener( in my opinion there is NO multi-tool canopener design as good as Victorinox...). This looks like a good knife though for someone who doesn't need those items.

I'd happily grab one if they made one with a can opener. One of my most used tools on a multitool.

Thanks for the review. I used to think a corkscrew was a luxury item… until I had a knot I couldn’t loosen. Can’t remember who suggested to use a corkscrew for that purpose but it works like a charm. Thanks again.

Always love the campfire cooking. Those look great. O yea nice knife as well. Thanks as always

My model LB41 has been fantastic to carry daily. Great video.

Great review. Tacos looked delicious. Corkscrew is great for extending the saw (i.e. attaching it to a longer piece of wood) and undoing knots ;)

Nice blade. I might have to add that to the collection.

Mannn that Carne asada looked goooood made my mouth water!

All we need now is a saw and awl version. The awl is great for drilling holes in wood and starting divets for friction fires. Great review James, looks like a score multi tool. Desert love from AZ.

Thanks for the review, and the tacos look great.

👍👍👍 Hey James, that multi tool looks good but your steak tacos look awesome 🌮🌮🌮! I made campfire loaded steak Nachos with some cold Dos Equis last week at camp and they were great! Next week I am making some steak fajitas or tacos! I carry a Huntsman swiss army folder in my pocket and a Sog or leatherman multi tool pliers in my haversack for backup. I agree the can opener is a better tool on a knife. I also carry a miliary p-38 can opener on my keychain it's light weight and takes up very little space! I would try this multi tool knife! Keep up the great work!

Hey James, have you ever checked out the MKM Malga 6? It doesn’t have the saw, but it is great in a cook kit.

Tbh if you need a can opener you can just bring a p38, maybe even attach it to the lanyard loop. Pop tops are pretty common now unless it's some store brand stuff.

Nice video! Thank you for that! I really like, how you review the knife and make tacos on the way!

Great video thanks. The key chain ring is great for hanging your knife with a lanyard so you can carry the knife on a belt or pack plus put it away if not needed. Is the cork

Having purchased a LD42-B which is the One hand Opening, Locking version with saw, scissors and awl I am left looking at it much the same. The action on the one hand opening is really really stiff at first also there is jimping on the liner lock for whatever reason so it chews your thumb. If I were to mod it I would grind down the jimping, grind the thumb stud divet on the scale and liner just a milimeter or so to allow for more of the thumb's meat to make contact allow for easier opening. I'd also have the seatbelt cutter reground and make it a sickle blade because sharpening that nonsense is a pain. And then maybe getting some high carbon steel making a new combo can/bottle opener tool like some swiss army knives have but since it is high carbon it would be capable of striking sparks on flint. @Junkyard Fox you can use the corkscrew in tandem with the saw and a long stick to have a pole saw.

The corkscrew is very useful to untying very tight knots too.

Shiner Bock. Had a lot of that when I was in Texas for a while. Nice knife. Take care.

I like that multitool. They also make some nice folders and at least one fixed blade. I find I seldom use my Leatherman Wave, too bulky for the pocket, and I don't usually want to wear it on the belt. This one might be more useful, just wish it had a locking blade and saw. Out of stock now though.

James what do you think of the cold steel crawford model one? I ordered one it's arriving in a couple of day it was on sale too much for me not to get it if has 4034as japaneese stainless steel and an addition lock for the blade and it's very cool looking in my opinion

And the food looked spectacular!

It might be a great knife if I'm not doubting that in the review was amazing by the way I have ordered twice from this brand and it's never arrived so I will never know in person but like I said a great review love your videos

That looked like a grand feed! Got the Boker+ version 4/5 years ago in a Black Friday sale, probably would have got the Ruike version myself if I hadn't caught that sale! Mine is the No#4 version?? It's the same as yours but with scissors and no tweezers. It's well built, probably a bit on the heavy side for hikers and those concerned with pack weight. Have took it out a few times though and it's a good set of tools. Have you considered trying the serrated blade as a gut hook? Could it be made to work?

Tacos and cold Shiner Bock. God bless Texas! Nice review. Sticking with my one hand Trekker for now. Let me know if they start making them in the USA.

I've found the best thing for the quark screw is a fire ant fire tinder system. Look them up they're cheep on Amazon and a must have addition to either knife with a quark screw!!

This is a pretty sweet knife but i got myself the ranger grip 79. I might mod the cork screw for something else or a get a little ferro rod or eye glass screw driver for it.

looks cool

Another great video!!!

If you like Ruike, then you would love the p801. It is my favorite by them.

Nice review thumbs up for that…..the scissors on the ruike look very good. For my personal edc i use a victorinox climber or a roxon k2 elite. You should do a little review about that one. there is a clip you can buy from the company swiss clip for the victorinox

That is a beauty!

I like it. Like the price too.

I had to hold off until after dinner to watch. I know that Imma want to eat after watching you cook. Jonesing for a fork like that.

The music in the background adds a lot to the feel of your videos

I like shiner bock! Now I want one haha

I like it. Yeah. It looks pretty good. Thanks for your review. // Your wool coat! When is it going to be back in stock? I need a 2X.

Really enjoy your videos. Found yall this week. Where do you reside in Texas ? Iam in the Pineywoods Swamps. Rattlers, gators and skeeters. Gotta go ramble around AZ and New Mexico. Please send me info on how to obtain Curvo's music.I tried you tube. Is it a band ? Can I purchase his music on DVD ? Keep up the excellent work. A man cannot have too many knives. Ha ! ha!

Great review but I will stick with my Victorinox. Not that I would feel under gunned so to speak with this brand. Quavo’s guitar playing reminds me of the old westerns written by Howard Hawks back in the day main actor was usually John Wayne love it

Thanks I agree we don't need a cork screw or bottle opener

So the pocket clip for one that size is nice. I love the look of those tweezers. And the scales and blade thickness is nice. But I don’t need a more robust blade for a non-locking one in my opinion. I’d still rather go with the one-handed tracker NS. Although if SAK came out with one with a stouter locking blade. I’d be all over that like white on rice. Being that my SAKs are secondaries anyways. Excellent video as always.

Those look delicious!

Man them tacos! Makin me hungry bro haha its a cool blade for sure. I want a knife like this for my kits but I carry a leatherman daily.

Great review as always James! I do have to say though....why oh why to we have to continue to have a corkscrew in place of something useful? hehehe, I guess we hall have our opinions now don't we!

Swiss army is still my fav... great review!

with that point on the keychain loop, I bet you could open up boxes with it.

Damn, pair the saw and awl I would buy one

I can't find this slip joint version anywhere Where did you get yours?

Great looking meal. I personally prefer to put the cheese on the tortilla while its warming up or about a minute before i take it off the fire to melt it a bit and help get some of the fats oozing. Personal choice but I think it helps enhance the flavor a bit. A little fresh squeezed lime juice is welcome as well. Oh, and the knife looked interesting as well. ;)

Kool caparison.

A corkscrew is a very useful outdoor/survival tool.

That looks damn near identical to my Boker tech tool. Is there a connection?

You could get a fire ant Ferro rod and tinder for the cork screw.

Get some aluminum foil, put pieces of onions, potatoes, carrots, jalapeños, zucchini, add 1/2 head of garlic peeled but left whole. After the potatoes are fork tender add a bit of butter and a nice amount of pepper jack cheese. Return to the fire for another minute or so for the cheese to melt. Devourer with a nice steak. Hope you can try.

The LD31, 41 and 51 series come with a locking Blade.

Man the food looked fantastic ! The knife not so much. I will not give up my victorinox knives . I have 1 Chinese made knife and really keep it for sentimental reasons and I just don't buy Chinese merch. But thank you for a good review .

Pretty sure these come out of the same factory as some of the Bokerplus knives e.g. the Techtools, which are also 12C27, a good steel I agree, I have a Techtool Mini with scissors and a Bokerplus Atlas, they're both great quality and get a fair bit of use. The only tool on these and on the Techtools I don't like, and which has stopped me buying one, is the beltcutter/Phillips sd combo, as I believe it's pretty tricky to use as a screwdriver due to it's 45 degree angle.

I have the Ruike M32, S11 and the L11, the S11 is great for the keychain. The M32 is very good, the tweezers are real tweezers way better than the victorinox ones... the main blade also very good size.

Great vid as always. The Chinese are capable of producing excellent quality products if you are willing to pay them and keep a good QA watch on the production. Excellent info, and as usual Cuervo's music sets your channel off, completing a quality production.

Hi. Do you think the Ruike can be put in the dishwasher with no damage ? Swiza say their knives can be put in the dishwasher.

Tbh its hard for me not to have a pocket clip so id definitely choose this one over any swiss army knife

Whoa… that’s a legit saw! Looks like it works better than the one on a Victorinox Farmer.

Thanks

That is better steel than I expected.

Fenix flashlights are quite impressive for their cost.

I like my Victorinox Outrider. Which has a lock blade. Your chinese Ruike looks ok though. I don't know the price difference.

James, please provide a link to the Ferro Rod in your Amazon store, I don't see it as one of the items you recommend there. I want to purchase one and you might as well receive the few ¢ents commission from my purchase. TY, klee

The Multifunctional Knife appears to be a versatile tool but I will stick with my SAK's. I have several that serve me well.

I stay with Victorinox, even though this Ruike was nice! I think pocket knives should not be too bulky, that is why they are "pocket" knives... if I do need to do heavier work, then I use a Silky & a Mora...

What do you marinade the meat in?

I'm still wondering where can I get that hat?

Looks good, But the price point needs to be lower. I just picked up the ranger grip for $61😎

Yea but the can opener is a luxury tool too... wat cans are u gona find in the wild🤔

👍 Interesting review. I am not a fan of liner locks as they provide false security in my mind. As you say there is no perfection in these knives. If the Chinese knife had a can opener, tooth pick, and awl it would be close to perfect. The corkscrew has more uses than opening wine - see Felix Immler’s channel. Frankly, I use my bottle opener / screwdriver on my pocket knives a lot.

Where is the can opener??

Love the music Cuervo! I will remain (mostly) silent on the commie knife. There are some feature that are interesting like the glass breaker and belt cutter. I would not even consider that knife if it weren't for your endorsement. Otherwise, Chuck Fina.

Nice knife, but awesome looking tacos!

I hate where they put the pocket clip 😢 it makes me sad. I do like the glass breaker wish they used them on more multi tools I only have a few on my Benchmade triage my ultratech and I think my Benchmade contego though I’m not 100% sure.

👍🏻👍🏻

Dude, Shiners are twist off....😋🐺

That’s more of a Böker Tech Tool/ City Tool copy than that of an SAK.

Pronounced as Rake. Good review, thanks.

👍👍👍

got a sak crossed with a boker

Personally, I think price has to be considered in all things you buy. For $60 compared to $120, it kicks Victorinox ass...

I just reviewed Ruike rescue knife LD43 of you are interested. It's on my other channel - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Zqxxhrd8tq25c5c.html I also have reviews there of the Boker plus tech tool 8 which is made of the same steel on the same Ruike factories. And of the Victorinox Ranger 55 wood

Very cool but I’ll stick with my titanium leatherman charge with an s30v blade. I would also prefer the FARMER X ALOX with silver anodized aluminum handles its not a giant blade but it’s also not small just a perfect size and the look is sexy 🥰😍😘 and as usual you only made enough food for yourself u never bring food unless you have enough for everyone🤡

It looks very interesting. I'm almost tempted to try one. However, I can not understand this compulsion to include corkscrews and bottle openers. I have not used a simple corkscrew to open a bottle of wine or a "cap lifter" for anything in literally decades. THOSE WERE TWIST TOPS! I do like the tweezers.

I buy USA only sorry junkyard Fox

Functionality aside, I think the corkscrew also looks shit. Great video as always 👍
