Beautiful High Value Fixed Blade: Hard Using the JEOTEC
I found this cool "Ponderosa" location while scouting for such on my KTM 1190. Here we have lots of standing dead wood to work on.
Then we get busy what turns out to be a surprisingly competent fixed blade: The JeoTac, made in Spain. It presents like a very high quality knife costing way more than its humble pricing. Just check out that sheath for instance.
Then I institute what might be a new way to infield test these knives: ratings on splitting, battening, chopping, shaving/planing, food/meat prep, and even throwing (!). No this 6.7" Bushcraft No37 is meant as a camp knife so some tasks might be a reach.
But all in all, Sean and I come away very impressed with its edge holding (Mova 58 steel), toughness, and throwing capabilities (wth). It is recommended.
