In field workout of what was supposed to be a review on the CRKT Black Powder (below) value hatchet.  We just couldn't help ourselves when real cutting needed to get done so we break out the Sawvivor and get it done.  

We get to this epic location via the Wolverine.  Filmed at 10,000 ft elevation on the Skyline trail system in Arapeen Utah just before snowfall.  We draw conclusions on the CRKT hatchet, how it could be made better, and remind of why we stick with our large survival knife/saw systems!  Thanks to TNP helper Sean!

Haven't even watched this yet but it gets a like just for the promise of seeing the good old sawvivor again. Like watching tnp classics. Wish someone still made it.

Scout154

I love the areas you film in. I'm so jealous my area of ops are nothing like that! Hope you feel better!

David and Elizabeth

Well done, boys. Good information. 👨‍👩‍👧❤

Kevin Cox

Scenery is awesome. I definitely want to sled that area in 6ft+. A days drive from Seattle area for me.

David Gaines

Utah looks amazing. I’m gonna have to leave Georgia and spend some time enjoying that terrain.

Aaron Gross

Nutin dude the only cheap axe anyone should either get is the Cold Steel Trail Boss. It’s amazing! I picked one up for $23.00 earlier this year. You got to check it out!

steve garrett

that axe looks like it would make a good splitter, as a result for cutting it needs a different grind on it. I don't think the edge itself is the problem so much as its more of a splitting edge. I really like that size because using an axe 2 handed totally kills me for energy. So I personally prefer a hatchet for general camping fire prep because I can swing it one handed. my favorite lately has been the husqvarna 13" hatchet. I usually stick to logs less than about 5 inches with it. I also carry a waorani, its pretty decent for fireprep as well. large axes I am not a fan of. too much energy, they are really designed for large logs, which IMO use a chain saw LOL. the point is get a campfire going, in that case just use a hatchet. on edit: yes as I complete the video I am indeed right about the splitting it does well. for an axle that does a decent job at splitting and cutting. I like fiskars. but fiskars uses softer steel. not a huge deal just be ready to sharpen it more. look at the huqvarna axes, can't beat the value they are made by hults bruk

Derek W Tiller

that hatchet looks like a decent buy. you just have to put a bit of work into it which is to be expected for 33 doll hairs. could actually have a little bit of fun and kill some crain bells stippling the handle with a soldering iron.

Connor Murphy

Beautiful scenery, I've lived in the Western US my whole life and I couldn't imagine not living here. I love wilderness adventures, especially winter ones, keep up the great work. By the way, are Hults Bruks similar to the Gransfors Bruks you reveiwed way back in the day?

Todd Strelka

I have the same exact Smith & Wesson M&P BB gun as Sean. It's a great trainer for the M&P 22 and M&P 9 platform. I own all three plus the M&P Shield. Still have my SOG Fasthawk. I used to carry it in my Civic. Need to put in in my truck. Pairs nicely with the Cold Steel Special Forces Shovel.

TacticalBunnyCA

On the BB gun topic. I have the Umerex g19x airsoft gun to approximate my G30 w/ with grip sleeve on g21 mags. There is a ton that can be done with it as a cross platform training system!

Dave Barker

I bought my RTAK2 after watching a video not unlike this one a loooong time ago..... still love the mountain testing vids.

The Nutnfancy Project

What's up Steve?! Good to hear from you, thanks for that info. BTW guys Steve is a Soldier Boy Alumni.

The Nutnfancy Project

"I love wilderness adventures, especially winter ones, keep up the great work" Copy that, more on the list of things to do! "are Hults Bruks similar to the Gransfors Bruks you reveiwed" Different company, same quality and construction. Great forges on those heads.

Aaron Gross

Don’t remember seeing it in the project and did a YouTube search and can’t find it?

Shawn Kuse

Damn beautiful scenery Nutn! I enjoy your wilderness vids. Get everything from knife, cooking, camping, reviewing! I live in the city burbs and I am so stoked by this video I just bought one of those Swedish axes off of BladeHQ. Damn don’t know when I will use it, but I got one! Lol

J Ram

Nice, an ARV and an SRV....it's been awhile since we've seen some wood processing! One of the key skills my Scouts have to master as part of their Firem'n Chit and Totin Chip cards is batoning wood in order to make kindling. Learned it from you Colonel, so I'm passing it on to the yutes!

T Boy

Special Nutnfancy edition Sawvivor would be the ulimate!!!

jabba21 (Weddle)

Longtime viewer from before the double owl days to dang near the Amazon knife review days. Embarrassingly, I’m just now subscribing to Patreon. I don’t know what took me so long to get here, but I’m happy to be here now! Great vid! Every time I see the Sawvivor in action, I lament on not picking one up when they were readily available.

Andrettski

I gotta admit the best part of the vid are the beautiful views. We all need to break away from this dumpster fire of a year and get out there with no electronics and soak it up. Thanks Nutn and Sean.

David Goodridge

On my bucket list. Is to be in a well stocked cabin in the mountains and get snowed in for the winter. Me and my dog, and the world could just go away for a few months. Thank you for the video

Drew Kinsel

This video would drive Wranglerstar insane! Great vid Nutn. More adventure!!

The Nutnfancy Project

Yeah me too; such a great saw. You might find one on eBay every so often. Thanks for the support steel.

The Nutnfancy Project

Hello Scout! Thanks for the well wishes, I am doing ok. This area is incredible. I'll break out a Wolverine video on it we did to show you more of it.

Scout154

You got a shout out on The Gun Collective on your Sig review! Also can't wait to see more mountain views! I also just bought the M3000 from watching your video and yes it's excellent! Thanks Nutn

Pat Cass

You might look at the Eswing hatchet . High value and quality, USA made

The Nutnfancy Project

It will give you joy Shawn, just from pride of ownership. LMK how like it. Heck just go out in the backyard and give it a test. The Hults Bruk axes are like fine knives, just fun to own. Conversation pieces too...fun to educate people of the differences.

david rockwell

Great to see the mountain test locations back in rotation. Thank you for taking the effort and time to record this outing.

Shawn Kuse

Got the Hults Bruk Premium Almike 16” hatchet. Can’t wait to use it!

Chris carr

Lol wranglestar is just paid tv advertisements

Donald Calderalo

Love these old-school outdoor knife/axe reviews. More please. Merry Christmas, nutn.

Spenser Weese

Interesting. Thanks for another dependable krv.

Tim Talbot

Got a suggestion for your next multitool review. Since I recently lost my Juice s2 and it's discontinued by Leatherman, I think it would be cool to see a showdown of currently available tools that can take it's place...

Mike R

When I saw the thumbnail photo I was hoping the sawvivor or a copy of one was now available for sale.

Martin Miller

I love my sawvivor, but looking for something of equal quality for my son. Do you have any experience with the Agawagear Boreal saws?
