A week before hunting season opened I was posting signs. Was walking back to my truck when a small, maybe 300 pound black bear female stood on her hind legs and wooded at me. She was about 6 feet tall. All I had was my SOG Tigershark bowie on me. I was scared, yes, but I stayed calm and backed off and walked away as I drew my knife. I felt at that time that I wasn't naked or defenseless, but I definitely would have been if it was my regular CS SRK. For fks sake, tho, dont go into the woods with just a blade, no matter how big. Not even to your garbage cans Donnie. And why the fk would you approach them with cubs? You could have been killed! Have at least a 45, 44, 357 10mm. A bear killed a healthy 8 pointer we all had a bet , a pot, for who would take it on opening day. This was a 200 pound whitetail that female killed and we saw it all on the cameras. Next time dont let there be a next time.

Hm, you need a new garbage can ๐ Nice knife/machete by the way. 1055, is more of a medium grade carbon steel. High Carbon starts at about 1075. But its not really the metal in the blade as to how well it was cooked. By that I mean heat treated and tempered. Cold Steel knives are well cooked, so to speak.

The thing looks pretty damn good for the cash , but I have a point to bring up
The thickness difference between this and a Western W49 ain't all that huge These run about 3 to 3.2 mm A w49 os 5/32nd's thick , or just under 4mm The W49 was a bit on the thin side , but that meant it didn't have a hard time biting deep into something , then being easily Yanked back out in the same direction Figured I'd bring that up
Good video as always Donnie
