Qualità ottima.
Ma non adatto ad utilizzo tattico.

Recensito in Italia il 23 settembre 2017

Straordinario e unico.
Possente e trasmette sicurezza.
Usabile come piccola ascia.
Unico appunto il costo (pagato 135€), Su Amazon USA costa quasi la metà ma poi ci sono spese invio e tasse doganali.
Ho preferito pagarlo circa 35€ in più per avere la sicurezza e la velocità di Amazon.
La fondina è validissima (arriva senza la pietra affilatrice) ma ho ordinato quella rigida dagli USA per attaccarci poi un piccolo contenitore.
Non so se il manico in micarta sarebbe meglio.
Lo ricomprerei.

Molto soddisfatto.

Soddisfatto! É quello che cercavo. Sostituisce molto degnamente una accetta per processare il legno a qfronte di un peso ragionevole. Si puó usare senza pietá e non tradisce mai...il 1095 é ampiamente utilizzato per questi usi... ottimo pure il fodero.

Una bestia.
Solido, duro e indistruttibile.
Non propriamente un coltello da bushcraft ma si adatta molto bene al ruolo.
Lo ricomprerei.

Si tratta di un coltello famoso e apprezzato da molti soprattutto in ottica customizzazioni della manicatura che,grazie alle brugole é molto facile smontare e si può usare anche in forma scheletrata o con del paracord. Le guancette di serie sono comunque molto comode a livello di ergonomia e materiale, non stancano nell'uso prolungato e adatte anche alle mani grandi. La costruzione é fulltang e lo spessore supera di poco i 6mm. É un coltello molto robusto adatto certamente ai lavori gravosi, perfetto per il batoning un pochino meno per il chopping a causa della lama non particolarmente lunga ma comunque il peso aiuta e si difende bene. La lama è fatta con il classico carbonioso 1095, possiede un filo molto tagliente con i soliti 20°nativi e caratteristici a cui Ka bar ci ha abituati tuttavia non si può pensare di fare lavori particolarmente di fino visto appunto la "mole" generale di questo coltello. Sorrido quando leggo che non va bene per tagliare il salame o la verdura........con uno spessore di 6mm e i biselli così alti cosa ti aspettavi? Non é nato per questo, il suo lavoro lo fa egregiamente in altri comparti per lo più di tipo bushcraft nel senso più stretto del termine ovvero..... costruzioni nel bosco.
Il fodero è un pratico kydex,ben fatto con una ritenzione che funziona. Il porto é agevole anche se, visto il peso, se si procede con passo sostenuto inevitabilmente ondeggia fastidiosamente sul fianco. Si risolve passando del paracord sui numerosi fori del fodero per un porto orizzontale dietro la schiena.
Ottimo coltello in generale ma per tagliare il salame meglio un Opinel.
Stavolta il prezzo di Amazon non é particolarmente vantaggioso, si trova a meno altrove.

crowbar and knife had a baby

Recensito in Canada il 25 febbraio 2020

You can find a million reviews on this knife, and there's not much more that needs to be said. It's thick, tough, can be sharpened to a razor's edge, and is damn near indestructible.

I mostly came to confirm that the sheath that comes with the BK22 here on this product fits the knife well. The snaps are quite snug, but will still snap shut even with the added thickness if you change the stock handles (scales) to the micarta ones that many people like. I just swapped the scales out on mine to the micartas, and with just a bit of work/stretch, the snaps will still close.

Overall, pretty happy with it.

Increíble, un filo de fabrica muy bueno, la funda es de buena calidad, el peso del cuchillo es considerable, sientes una seguridad de que no va a fallarte, el mango se acomoda bastante bien a la mano, no te arrepentirás de haberlo comprado

A Monster was born!

Recensito in Germania il 4 maggio 2017

das ist ein Ungetüm von einem Messer.

Es wiegt gefühlte 100 kg und allein schon wenn man es das erste Mal in die Hand nimmt hat man das Gefühl es handelt sich hier nicht um ein Messern sondern um eine Primärangriffswaffe.

Die Klinge ist extrem massiv und robust. Ich habe damit Eichenscheite gespalten und es war der Klinge egal. Ich habe sie in einen Baumstamm gerammt und als Trittstufe benutzt (btw. ich wiege rd. 150 kg) und es war ihr egal - sie hat sich überhaupt nicht verbogen. Ich habe damit einen gebrannten Ziegelstein zertrümmt und sie war immer noch scharf genug um die Haare von meinem Arm zu rasieren.

Ich sage es ganz einfach.... ICH LIEBE DIESES MESSER! Es ist definitiv eine Klinge auf die man sich 100%ig verlassen kann.

So ein Messer zu so einem Preis - unschlagbar! All jenen die Fällkniven oder Bark River für zu teuer empfinden, all denen die ein Messer suchen, dass etwas größer ist als ein Morakniv - all diese Suchenden werden hier fündig!

Ich bin einfach begeistert.

The most imposing Survival knife I have ever owned – bar none. (no the picture does not do it justice)

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 22 maggio 2016

Is it overkill? Yes, most definitely. Is it cool? HECK YEAH! I love this knife!

KNIFE EVOLUTION
I have a theory on how this knife evolved. For years, survivalist experts have been clamoring for the ultimate survival end-of-the-world knife: full tang, thick blade, indestructible – etc. etc. etc. Any knife produced under the umbrella of a survival knife was quickly subjected to torture tests that involved hammers, vices, blow torches, and knives being used in a manner that they were never designed to be. This was very good because survivalists quickly whittled away the "JUNK" that was being passed along as survival knives.

This crucible of testing produced knives that a nomadic Neanderthal living at the edge of an ice age would dream about all his entire short life. I'm confident Neanderthals dreams of this Kabar BK-22! (I DID, for decades).

It’s quite frankly the very best hunk of steel a nomadic close to extinction Neanderthal living at the edge of an Ice Age would dream of carrying.

In knife evolution, all of these inventions were being used to fell full size trees, dig holes through rocks, skill wooly mammoths, etc. Videos were posted of all of this. In time, the industry responded by producing knives that were tougher and tougher.

Sturdy full-tang knives like the excellent Marine Corps Kabar were relegated to the degrading rat-tail tang category. This knife is at that long line of survival-knife-abuse evolution. It’s the toughest, baddest, most well designed and engineered survival knife on the planet. I am confident of that. Sure, you can pay a guy $4,000 to go make you a custom crowbar…but for us simple folk who deal with mass produced tools – this is the Apex Predator of our realm.

Is this knife going camping with me from now on? HELL YES. Does it replace my Axe? HELL NO. Does it replace my .357 magnum? HELL NO. Does this mean my SOG Pup or my folding knife aren’t going with me? HELL NO! I always carry at least two knives with me – my main side knife and a folding knife that actually sees all the action while camping.

Mind you, I’m not a big fan of using knives as crowbars. In my humble opinion, it’s not the kind of work that knives were designed for. Use an axe to fell a tree. Use a crowbar to pry things. Just because a knife is at your side does not mean that it should be used as a hammer, crowbar, axe, and chisel – but that’s just me and experts do disagree – as evidenced by the creation of this brute!

Also, without survivalists torture testing knives, this beast would not have evolved and it would be a much more boring world-of-knives with junk knives being peddled as survival knives – so thank you to all you torture testers out there. This knife though is now more than just the ultimate survival tool, it’s an image – it’s fashion. Most of these knives are not going to see much action, they are going to be heirloom display pieces, which is just fine.

BEING SERIOUS
I’m a backpacking camper. I’m not Rambo. I don’t expect to go out into the woods and have to survive a Zombie Apocalypse. The knife I always carry is a Coast DX356 Double Lock Folding Knife . It’s a smaller folding blade knife that I wind up using all the time to cut line, whittle a stick, etc. It’s cheap, it locks, the blade geometry is great (that means its thick enough and wide enough that I like it and robust enough that it’ll cut through bark etc.). It’s a perfect camping knife. I will turn the house upside down before I go camping if I can’t find that little folding knife. If I were to lose that little knife, I would cry because I use it so much but I know that I could just buy another one for very little money.

I almost always carry a bigger knife at my side that doesn’t see almost any action out in the woods. It’s more of a showpiece that’s there in case the Zombie Apocalypse hits. The thunder is stolen from that show-knife by my folding knife and by my camping axe. The knife that almost always winds up on my side is a nice and sturdy SOG Specialty Knives & Tools E37N-CP Seal Pup Elite Knife with Straight Edge Fixed 4.85-Inch Steel Blade and GRN Handle, Satin Finish . It’s light and its short enough that it’s not a weapon but it’s a proper knife. I posted some pictures that compares a SOG pup and my little Coast knife to this knife.

I put on a 40lb pack, hike for a day, camp and then do it again the next day. Weight is everything to me. The best purchase I made was a Estwing E45ASE 26-Inch Special Edition Camper's Axe-All Steel with Shock Reduction Grip . I probably shouldn’t say this because it’ll give up my secret, but what I find is that most campers will gather all the small wood and leave the larger dead pieces that they can’t harvest – a 28inch camper’s axe allows me to harvest wood that less experienced campers cannot. Yes, that axe weighs 3lbs but those are the very best 3lbs I carry.

STEEL
People get all wrapped up around the axle over steel types for knives: S5, 1095, ATS-34, AUS8A. You can have arguments with engineers who are experts at metallurgy and you can have countless arguments with people who know nothing about steel but who will still argue that their knife is best. Just know that there are thousands of different types of steel. One of the most common knife steels out there is ANSI 1095, which is a high carbon steel that keeps a great edge. The major issue with 1095 is that it rusts easily. To combat this, the folks at Kabar have always added Chrome and Vanadium to their steel – hence 1095CV or ChroVan. It’s one of the distinguishing characteristics of Kabar – they made knives for the Marine Corps and those knives had to withstand marine environments. This Kabar is made out of 1095CV steel – which is the same as Sharon 170-06 – steel from Sharon Pennsylvania. It’s basically ANSI 1095 with a bit of Chrome, Vanadium, Nickel and Molybdenum to help protect it. So, it’s not pure 1095 but 1095+. The blade is coated to further inhibit corrosion. Will it rust? All steels rust if subjected to the right conditions. If you throw it in the ground and leave it there for two months in the rain – yes, it will rust – you can, of course, polish those rust stains out. But, if you take care of this blade, keep it sharp and clean, with maybe a drop of oil now and again, it will last three lifetimes and you’ll never have a problem.

WEIGHT
When you have a hunk of steel like this one, you’re going to pay with the weight. It weighs in at 15 ounces. That’s a pound of solid steel because the handles don’t weigh much. The sheath adds another 5 ounces – 20 ounces total. That’s heavier than my .357 Magnum Snubby – which is always at my side. By comparison, the SOG pup comes in at 5 ounces and the sheath adds another 5 ounces for a total of 50% weight savings. It bears repeating, this knife weighs as much as 3 SOG Pups and more than my .357 Magnum!! Bear in mind, my 28” camping axe weighs 46 ounces – this knife weighs 20 ounces. If you give me a choice of taking my axe or this knife, I will take the axe every day of the week.

If you’re a light camper that is concerned with weight, this knife weighs you down. If you’re a diehard survivalist, you’ll gladly carry it.

FIGHTING
Quite realistically, you are not going to fight with this knife. It’s too heavy. As a trained knife fighter, I’d say that the full size KA-BAR Full Size US Marine Corps Fighting Knife, Straight or even the SOG Pup are better knives for fighting. This thing is a brute…you could use it as a hatchet maybe and crack a skull or a femur but you can find better fighting knives. Of course, if I’m fighting a Grizzly Bear or the Alien Predator from the Schwarzenegger movies, and I’ve lost my rifle and gun, this is the knife I want in my hands when they find my dismembered body.

SHEATH
This new nylon sheath is much more in line with a high quality sheath for this knife than the previous generation. It does have a kydex-like liner to protect the nylon, just like the SOG sheath, and it has an outer pocket which is perfect for a fire starter magnesium block. I love that the belt loop is held together with Velcro (hook and loop) and with a snap closure, so I don’t have to take off my belt to don this. It also comes with a variety of attach points that you can use to latch this to an Alice pack or for you to use paracord to strap this to your leg, if you so choose. It’s a really nice sheath in my opinion.

Basically, the BK2 had the old sheath and the BK22 has the new sheath. I recommend the new model.

THE LAW
In my state, it is illegal to carry a knife whose blade is 5” or longer. Because this knife is 5.25”, you would need a weapons carry license to lug this bad boy around the woods. I am a licensed carrier so I can carry this knife but I always check up on my laws and the laws of the states I visit. The last thing you want is to go camping and wind up with a felony weapons charge. Know your knives and know your knife laws. The SOG pup’s blade is 4.75” which makes it easier to carry without legal entanglements. Personally, I think it’s ridiculous to have laws of this sort but they exist – ignore them at your grave peril.
