Knife Review: S.A.K Farmer

I've had this knife for maybe 2 or 3 years now, my buddy Holmes Lace gave it to me. It's a Sack Farmer, it's a blue one, I don't know if you can find the blue ones anymore, I don't know, I haven't seen them around, but it's a really good knife and I've used this in the woods and in my pocket in everyday life for probably those 2 or 3 years since he's given it to me. I've got a little lanyard attached so it helps me when I'm holding a knife, I also have grip in there, it fills up my hand a little bit more, but it's got, every feature on it is a good feature. It's got a saw, pretty stout knife. I've made, I don't know, a handful of split fires with the knife, batoning it and whatnot. Take it easy, obviously, on it. It's a folder, but the awl, which is good for striking fire steel, bottle opener, and the can opener. So today, I'm going to try and use all of them, show you guys the way I use the items on this. First up, I have to have gluten-free beer, and it only comes in one or two kinds and they're both not twist off so in the woods or even at home i tend to use the bottle opener off the sack farmer for it all right so i'm gonna get a piece of wood saw it down do some prep with it show you guys what it's all about like i said i hold the the lanyard in my hand with the handle now is this gonna be as good as a bow saw or even a folding saw no but that's not the point it's a it's a one tool that does a few different things that fits in your pocket and barely even notices there not too bad now you got to keep in mind wood selection too this isn't uh this isn't like black you don't want to be batoning oak and trying to saw through oak too much with this thing this is a black willow it's uh pretty much soft it it's uh good wood to to use for this so i'm just going to baton it down a little bit a little common sense when you baton in a folder baton in a little bit of the way just kind of work it right get a nice piece like that off and you can do the same thing for the other big piece just keep doing it this thing makes really nice shavings sharpens up real easy too i use my DC4 for it takes a matter of minutes but not too bad for shavings yeah overall i'm pretty pleased with this knife it's uh never let me down really and like i said it's more of a i do use it in the bush but i don't use the the main knife like the blade mostly in the bush it's more like the saw or the awl But still it's not Nothing to be sneezed at that's for sure. It's a very capable blade All right Well so far we've used the knife blade the saw the bottle opener and we use the awl right now It's a common common knowledge now that the all works Amazing for striking a fire steel. So that's what we're gonna do here as you can see no problem there. It's pretty pretty good For the, it's probably my favorite striker for the fire steel so we used everything, everything's worked really well the can opener is the only thing we haven't used and that's probably the one i use the least but i have used it a handful of times for sure uh it helps open up cans of peaches and whatnot so i got here no name fruit cocktail so to use this i don't know i never knew it before uh terry terry showed me you put the bottom part on the outside of the can the top pointed part on the inside and you puncture it and you just keep working it like that, and it actually works really well So the only thing I can say bad about this knife really is that after doing a handful of shavings there It really starts to cramp up in your hand, and that's to be expected. It's just a tiny little handle there It's got to be it's a little folding pocket knife but uh having that lanyard on there like I was talking about really helps to fill in your hand a little bit and I originally got the lanyard to help me pull it out of my pocket find it easier But I think the good purpose is for filling your hand like I said So you can see how quick that was No time at all And I've got this no-name fruit cocktail to enjoy So really if you're looking for a good all-around pocket knife I don't think you'd go wrong with this thing I don't know how much it is It's got to be under seventy bucks I'm not sure But Swiss Army Farmer Check it out
