Video Transcription

what we have here are two great knives made by charade the lchf 35 and the SCH f 32

well I got those two blades from straight thank you very much and I want to test them out here in the forest and we have a little storm coming in so let's get started so at first I want to take a look at the SCH f32 which is this better is played here a drop-point design nice have a little stock right there it's around three three and a half mil you have this thermo plastic something handle it's called TPE

nice texturing on the handle this big linear on the back full tang construction really grippy handle material and the blade is around for four and a half inch in blade length you have this very nice slightly hollow grind

Babylon the blades a black coating and that's that before Ash right nine shred is a little underestimated my opinions they make really nice good looking blades that are very sturdy very good quality see the chimpón here jumping here and you have this kind of finger grooves but not really as you can see it's a little funky but I like the design a lot this night comes razorsharp out of the box no kidding as for the sheath just a plastic sheath not very fancy slightly textured if this slots and holes for different amount of mounting options and you have this fixed belt loop carry it's slightly no rattle at all this plate will never come out of the sheath it's designed for right-handed people

sorry lefties and that's the straight SCH f/32 it's a brand new knife for 2015 so I don't have any exact price for you today but it will come out in this year and for more information please check out shrade comm late number two is the Schrade SCH f-35 a nice little backup blade with the Kydex sheath as a stone washed finished on the blade that looks really nice you have this g10 handle texture proved this Nahas little funky looking rivets those grooves right there to hold the slaps on the steel and the lanyard hole at the back as you can see full tang construction tang goes all the way through

to Round three and a half mil thick you have this chipping here on top this finger choil here is finger guard feels nice in the hand it's a little smaller it's around three three and a half inch blade I don't have any exact measurements right here but it's around three three and a half inch plate length the handle is big enough to fit my size eleven different pants size ten pans on the gloves this slightly recurve in this blade and a drop-point design this is a real Kydex sheath overmold fold it's design with a belt loop valve carry option that you can screw on either side so also for left-handed people also here oh well nothing fits really nice in the sheet the SCH f-35 also it 2015 model for more information visit the website rate.com

but it wouldn't be a survival mike's channel if we won't test the blades so let's get started right into the field test that's there guys this tree here is already pre-cut and a dead one so this would be a nice target don't you think sir

so if you take a closer look on the tips no damage from this side and no damage from the top every tip is just straight and perfect there's some hits were not on target mice you can see the length difference to line up the backside the blade there's the difference in those two blades it's more like a full-sized bushcraft blade self defense one whatever that's more like a neck knife or a small backup plate great for skinning it's down here we have Greenwood so let's start with the pickup laid the SCA Jeff 32 great job with carving no problem let's see for the SCH f-35 this one is a little harder in the hand because it has not this TPE traction this this soft material this rubberized handle it's just plain g10 but it takes in very good and this recurve here really helps to stay on the wood can also get very very fine shavings and if you have practiced just a little of your sharpening skills it's not a big deal to resharpen a small little recurve like this so even that both of the blades are not designed for chopping let's give it a try I'll take the bigger one the SCH f/32 hold it very far in the back in the back here so just with a few fingers right there to have more power when I do to some chopping so let's go for it this wood is bone dry seasons well but the blade goes in nicely I said this knife is not a chopper by no means you really want to have an axe a hatchet or a saw for this kind of work but for testing purpose that's good that's a two inch log I think I won't do this kind of test with this blade here but testing is testing so just a few hits camp holding all zombie back it's not designed for chopping but I want to test the edge as well both blades are made out of 9 CR 13 MOV stainless deal I said before the big one has this coaching and that's stone washed finished so whatever you prefer I like the stone wash look a little more than the black coating it's my preference but all in all both of them are holding up really good so let's go for some batoning so I took 4 different pieces let's take her one with the round 2 and 1/2 inch and the smaller one with the round 2 inch that's because that's a bigger blade smaller plate as you can hear solid wood give you a close-up of the blade of the edge itself

nothing no chip no dent it's a little dirty so no chip load and nothing everything is holding up really good and feels quite sharp also while this TP handler which is very soft and rubberized material I couldn't feel any shock through the handle while batani

I love this handle that's a great one awesome awesome chops rate it splits good when I can feel a little shock through this handle

they have no absorption of the shock bill sharp no Nick's no dance makes a short process with this word after this baton I am able to make some really nice feathers so my conclusion of those two knives they work great as for the money what you pay what you will get you have two really good knives so that's was my review of this rate at CHF 32 and the schrade SCH f-35 thanks for watching my cap
