Fremont FRE00404-BRK Farson Blade Survival Tool

I hate unitaskers. I hate a tool that serves only one purpose. When I make a purchase I look at whatever it is and see if there are other things I can use it for. It isn't always the case, but I like to pick up things that meet multiple needs. This Farson Blade from Fremont Knives does just this. The features it has from using as a hand chopper to a flat blade for fleshing hides or being able to attach to a handle to use as an axe - this blade handles all these tasks and more. It's compact enough that it doesn't impact your kit either by weight or size. One of the best items I've purchased.

When i first bought it i was disappointed this is not a wood processing survival tool buy any leap of imagination, first off its a soft stainless steel more adapted to meat processing. It under performed in chopping wood, batoning wood and feather sticking it simply was uncomfortable to hold like brass knuckle the spacing for the pinky finger was too tight and you real felt that steel digging into your little finger. I think i'll mod it with a dremel wheel to make room for my pinky. But playing with it i discovered this tool by no means is a knife and you should not use it like a knife so what tasks does it excel in. I found its advantage is the fact that its light and small besides meet processing this is an excellent bushcraft carpenters tool, simply moving around the tool and using a small baton or mallet one can easily create intricate cuts and shapes into the wood especially creating V and joints cuts for wood pieces to lock into each other. actually if you got a little more money the Fremont Farson hatchet Hunting Combo is a better tool, boasting a handle; made of a thicker 1095 harder steel for wood and better titanium coating. It also comes with a separate skinning tool. the farson hatchet is even better at carpentry work. so if your looking for a ulu slash carpenters tool this will meet your needs

Wicked little piece of steel. BUT. If you've got big, pudgy mitts like me, you may find the narrow end of this just a bit too small for your hand. My wife has adopted it and LOVES it. It's basically a modern take on an Inuit Ulu, and is a killer blade for all sorts of chopping, scraping, and small, fiddly work chores. And it comes intimidating sharp.

Love the design and can be used for many things just need a little imagination and know how of using the Para-cord to tie it on thing great for making small pieces of wood for a fire or cutting tree's down I use it for many things and it keeps its edge really well never had to sharpen it yet! Top notch piece of hardware! next going to try using it to de-skin animal hide scrapping! This little Blade has many uses!

I was skeptical when buying it. Wasn't sure if I would like it or not. But watch the review on YouTube. This blade is awesome! Very rugged. Feels good in the hand. A little heavier than I was expecting, which is actually a good thing for me. You can't really notice it when it's in your belt or in a picked because it's so slim. I highly recommend this to any outdoorsman. Very handy versatile tool.

The Farsome Blade is kinda neat, more of a novelty. I was disappointed in its size, I know it has measurements in the description, but it is very tight in closed fist. Limiting my ability get a good grip made it very dangerous. I removed the paracord handel, so I could try some of the uses shown in the product video. I cut myself a few times removing cord, tying it to a stick, and batoning some thin wood. I had to cover the blade with tape to rewrap the handel, and it cut through my welding glove when I was pulling knots tight. So.. it's sharp, and it handled the tests without any problem or damage. I'm glad I got one. I think it's expensive for its size, and the nylon sheath.. well.. it's sucks. They offer a leather sheath, but it cost almost as much as the knife, and I'm hesitant to invest more in this. I hope to see a larger version, with a better sheath offered someday.

Assembles easy and makes a good tool

Love love it. Not meant for everyone. But it’s for me. I used it for most of all my cutting. Prefect for the kitchen and for home. So many things you can do with it. Prefect for a biug out bag. If you don’t want to load to much but one. Did all that with this beautiful baby.!!
