https://prepared-wanderer.com I have been wanting one of these knives for a long time and finally got around to purchasing. I couldn't contain myself so I did an unboxing video of this awesome bushcraft blade! The Lagom is a scandi grind collaboration knife between Lester River Bushcraft and Ben's Backwoods. Produced by LT Wright Knives here in Ohio. -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Please watch: "The Best Survival Food Kit For Your Bug Out Bag | Nutrient Survival" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Un4WZfvyjW8 -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-

Alright guys, I hate unboxing videos
0:07
I think they're so, I don't know, stupid. That's my opinion, whatever
0:12
I like to see gear used, I like to be outside using my gear, but I'm going to do an unboxing
0:18
video because, you know, why not? I'm going to be contradictory today because I'm excited
0:25
I'm excited about getting this package and it's something that I've been saving up for
0:32
for a while and that's who it's from, Lester River Bushcraft, so definitely going to be
0:37
something exciting in there. Whoops, don't look at that. Alright so, what is in the package
0:50
Can I do it one handed
0:59
Wish I had a knife. Wait, I always have a knife
1:10
It's my buck knife, I love this knife, use it all the time
1:17
See if I can do this. This is weird, I'm trying to guide the knife using the video monitor on my phone and it's
1:24
kind of like doing laser surgery or something, I don't know, weird
1:37
This isn't working at all, hang on. Okay, back at it. Two hands now, much easier to open a package
1:47
Probably won't even need my pocket knife, well maybe I will. Can you tell I'm excited
2:08
Very interesting, what is this? Yes, yes, yes. There it is, the Lagom Bush Knife, am I saying that right
2:29
Lagom, Lagum, I don't know. Anyway, it's supposed to be a Scandinavian word for just right, meaning the knife is
2:35
just right in your hand. I'm definitely going to be doing a full review on this thing out in the field because that's
2:42
the only proper way to tell if it's going to be a great knife or not
2:47
But just right away, this thing is quality
2:59
If you're unfamiliar with this knife, this is a collaboration blade between Lester River
3:04
Bushcraft and Ben's Backwoods, both really awesome online retailers. I've bought stuff from these guys in the past, stand up guys, great businesses, they
3:15
always have really sensible products for bushcrafters and outdoorsmen or outdoors people
3:25
The knife is produced by L.T. Wright Knives here in Ohio, so that's a bigger bonus for
3:29
me too, getting to support a local knife maker. He always makes just fantastic blades, but oh my gosh, the way this thing fits the hand
3:40
it's perfect. I love it. I can tell already how it fits my hand, it's really comfortable and really nice
3:48
Sharpened spine, it's got a nice chisel point on that tip, so you can hammer this thing
3:55
in the logs no problem. This is the OD Green Micarta, I believe it also comes in an orange G10, I think, and
4:08
then there's a new color they added which is kind of a snake skin burlap Micarta, which
4:14
is kind of cool. There's also another sheath option you can buy from Sagewood Gear, which of course they
4:20
make excellent leather gear, but the sheath that it comes with, you can tell it's a quality
4:30
sheath, it's not going to come apart. It looks like you can remove the dangler, so if you just want to use this as a straight
4:39
up belt sheath you can, of course a fire steel loop, which is handy
4:45
So there it is, that's my first stupid unboxing video. Hopefully I will never do one of these again, so look forward to seeing this thing put to
4:53
use in the field real soon. Of course it's a Scandi grind, you can tell this thing is just screaming sharp
5:05
It's spine is nice and sharp too, it's really going to strike a ferro rod really well
5:10
This is what I'm really impressed with, this handle, the shape of it
5:14
It's a little bit different for a bushcraft knife, my other bushcraft knife is a AA Forge
5:20
Woodsman which has more of a coke bottle handle, this is just more of a swell to it
5:28
But it's really fat in the middle too, you can see there, it's just really fat right
5:32
here and that just fills up the palm of your hand. I have pretty decent sized hands, boy that feels great
5:44
Alright, that's it, so quick video for today, look for this thing coming at you soon
5:53
We'll get this thing in the field and play with some wood, build some fires, put it through
6:00
it's paces. But so far, just messing with it right here in front of you guys, I'm pretty impressed
6:08
I'm glad I took my time to save my money for this thing and be patient and get what I wanted
6:14
because I can tell it's going to be a great blade to add to my arsenal
