This video reviews the Kershaw Antelope Hunter (1028) and Bear Hunter (#1029) fixed-blade knives. The reviewer highlights their lightweight design, full flat ground drop-point blades, and excellent edge holding capabilities. While noting the use of 8CR13Mov steel, which requires care to prevent rust but offers good toughness and sharpness, the reviewer praises their slicing, skinning, and utility performance. The finger-grooved co-polymer handles and effective jimping are lauded for providing good traction, even suggesting potential defensive roles. The primary drawback identified is the traditional sheath design, with a recommendation for Kydex or plastic alternatives to enhance their already high value, especially considering their sub-$20 price point in 2011. The Antelope Hunter is favored for camp or backpacking use.
