This video review by Nutnfancy showcases the Scrapyard Sykco 511, 711, and 911 knives, inducting them into his "Hall of Fame." The review highlights the exceptional performance of these blades, made from SR-101 steel, in harsh alpine, snowy environments. They demonstrated excellent durability, edge retention, and resistance to chipping and bending after rigorous testing including chopping and batoning. The video discusses the specific strengths of each knife size and their intended purposes (POU), noting the comfortable handles and impressive balance of the larger models. While value is considered good, the absence of sheaths and high shipping costs are mentioned as drawbacks. The limited edition, American-made nature of these woods blades is emphasized as a key selling point, making them a worthwhile investment for outdoor enthusiasts.
This video reviews the SOG Creed knife, highlighting its strengths as a rust-resistant woods knife capable of chopping and splitting wood. The reviewer praises its excellent SOG ergos, comfortable Kraton grip with good traction, functional double guard, and hammering pommel. The AUS8 steel blade is noted for its thickness, corrosion resistance, edge holding, and ease of sharpening. The unusual blade shape with a dramatic upward sweep is ideal for utility, skinning, and wilderness craft. The knife's heft and forward balance are superior to many other SOG fighters. The leather sheath is aesthetically pleasing but lacks a secure belt loop. While positioned as a collectible due to its quality and price, the Creed is also a capable tool for hard service, including chopping, food preparation, and defense.
