Cold Steel Pocket Bushman: Broken Hopes

This video reviews the Benchmade CSK II fixed blade knife, initially suggesting its suitability for light-duty survival and combat due to its lightweight design and 1095 steel blade. However, an update from December 2008 reveals the knife broke under light limb-stripping in cold, snowy conditions. The reviewer now strongly advises against using it for survival situations, citing its failure under minimal stress. The knife is described as serviceable for defensive/offensive purposes for deploying soldiers, with a comfortable Kraton handle and a MOLLE-capable leather sheath. Despite its initial perceived capabilities, the catastrophic failure leads to a drastically revised "Nutnfancy Likeability Scale" score of 1 out of 10.
