This video reviews the CRKT Carson M21 and M18 knife series, highlighting their excellent value for the price, despite a failure during batoning tests attributed to a loose pivot screw. The reviewer praises the high-quality AUS8 blade steel, superb finishing, fast opening, excellent jimping, and overall rugged aesthetics. Downsides include heavier carry weight, limited clip versatility, and less-than-ideal slicing performance due to the hollow grind. The M21 scores a 6 out of 10 and the M18 (considering its $20 price) a 7.5 out of 10, with a strong recommendation to use fixed blades for survival tasks like chopping wood.
