Hi everyone,
I wanted to realize a heavy use test for my Fox Parang Bushcraft, but a wise one. I mean, I always thought that breaking concrete or bricks, or cutting another knife with your knife is just stupid. When you will had the need to do it actually?
So, I took a 2kg hammer, and some different materials to cut: 1. a 12x8 cm seasoned pine, you should cut it for a long-term shelter, or to build an emergency boat. 2. a 10 liters metal can, you should cut it to realize a hobo wood stove, or a kettle to boil water or cook food 3. copper pipe, aluminum profile, steel screw 4 mm diameter, you should find metal objects cutting woods and I would like to see how the blade react to
Well, the Parang Bushcraft was brilliant I guess, as he didnt break, cutted all these objects fairly easily and without any significant damages to the blade
Here the tests video, hope you enjoy
