If you were a very strong slav like pudzianowski and you had a well sharpened rex 121 knife could you take on a grizzly? I think i would get on my back and try to get him to bite down on one of my legs or my left arm while i pummeled him in the head and neck with my rex 121 blade. I think if i got lucky i might have a chance.
>>65125830only if you have the bear spray suicide vest
>>65125830Lmao, fuck no, that fag's getting torn apart
>>65125830are you trying to neuter the bear or something?
>>65125830>I think if i got lucky i might have a chance.Lmfao
>>65125843lmao. How much bear spray cans suicide vest would have to need to defeat polar bear?
>>65126651How:A- rapidlyB- preciselycan you get that pepper spray inside the bear's asshole and set it off.Because short of that polar bear does not care.
>>65126651Does that stuff even work in below freezing conditions?
>>65125830Is a 3" blade even enough to cut through the hair/skin/fat layers to do actual damage to the burr?
>>65126756Hippy spray doesnt do shit. If a brown bear wants to bite your face off its going to do it.
>>65126781I think its borderline. Id rather have a 4 inch blade but i need rex 121 so the blade cuts thru the bears skin on the head and neck like jello. So 3 inch rex 121 vs 4 inch other metal: i will prefer the 3 inch rex 121
>>65125830can you use the knife to make a spear?
>>65125830With that knife you could maybe pedicure his paws, if the bear was tranq'd ahead of time.You ain't killing shit with that, you're getting ripped to shreds. Best thing you can do is stab it in the eye, maybe it fucks off. Or maybe it gets mad and kills you faster.Also why pick the strongman? You think being able to lift heavy rocks will help you fight bears?? I really don't see that guy having higher survival chances than your average human.
>>65125830Far weaker people have survived a similar scenario so sure, it's possible. It's based highly on luck though, if the bear decides to swipe at him instead of going for a bite he's probably dead soon from his guts spilling out.
>>65126818It’s not like it’s a lightsaber lmao it’s just harder steel, gonna cut basically the same as any other knife.
>>65125830I couldn't, but I bet a good boar spear would work wonders on fighting the meat brick man.
>>65125830Bears are frens not foes!
>>65125830Yeah as pudz I think you could, not the best success rate but it's possible to win. Now if it were Brian Shaw and you told him it was a black or brown bear he wouldn't even take the knife.
>>65125830The bear has five rex 121 knives in each of its four paws
>>65125830Grizzly bears are like 600+ lbs and they are explosive as fuck. If it attacks you with its full weight behind it you're going to be immediately knocked out or have all of your bones broken/joints dislocated before you can do shit.
>>65127354Right? Like what the fuck? OP has never watched that brutal 6 minute grizzly fight on youtube and it shows.
>>65127430https://youtu.be/kccJfnfFLC0?si=W9qC5PtTU39PZavsfor reference
>>65127158> You think being able to lift heavy rocks will help you fight bears??A slav like pudz could put about 6-8x more force behind the knife than a typical human. Worth considering.
>>65127267Harder steel can get a sharper edge. A well sharpened rex 121 steel blade could slice through flesh like cranberry sauce.
>>65127338Brian shaw isnt as strong as pudz
>>65127354Bear claws actually arent that sharp. Think of dogs claws but bigger. They can still rip you open but not very sharp.
While a bear's claws are undeniably sharp, they likely lack the skillful movements necessary to use them effectively as weapons.Unfortunately, however, their strength is enough to pose a significant threat simply by hooking their claws onto clothing and swinging them around.
>sage 5b a s e dI win this fight 100% percent with mine btw
>>65128096A bear is like 600Ibs of muscle, I don't care how strong he is, he's not surviving a determined grizzly.
keep the knife
>>65127410People tend to forget that bears often kill people with just blunt force before any teeth or claws get involved
>>65128101So does any other properly sharpened modern knife steel
>>65128324Grizzlies can actually be over 1000 pounds. Ive seen vids of grizzly bears that are the size of a vw beetle. I still think a strong slav with a pants shitting sharp blade has a chance at cutting a grizzly’s jugular. Small chance, but its there.
>>65128175Nice. What do you sharpen it on?
>>65128101Rex 121 just has the best edge retention. It's also more brittle.
>>65128862A harder steel can maintain a sharper edge than a softer steel. At very thin keen-ness the apex of the blade is as thin as aluminum foil. So if you made a knife out of aluminum the apex would dull immediately. If you want an edge that can stay stiff enough for the foil-thin apex to not fold or roll over or compress you want harder steels. Theoretically you could crush a 1 pound diamond just right to get a thin slice that was so keen it could cut through flesh like a light saber but until somebody sends me a 1 pound diamond i will stick to rex 121 for all my bear defense fantasies.
>>65128354Complete bs
>>65131130The hard/brittle tradeoff is always there but rex 121 has very good durability for a steel as hard as it is.
>>65131136The apex of a knife is thinner than aluminum foil. You can get a knife to whittle a hair. What aluminum foil doesn't have is the support of the blade behind it. Rex 121's standout quality is edge retention. Like, you could probably cut up cardboard all day and it wouldn't dull. You would need toughness for a bear so it doesn't snap off when you hit a bone. 3 inches would make very shallow cuts. This is what I would choose due to its light weight.
>>65125830You're a stupid nigger. A bear can rip a human head apart like a ripe watermelon. Pic linked because I don't feel like taking a vacation, but this from a sun bear about 1/5th the weight and half the height of a grizzly. https://files.catbox.moe/sie5tt.jpgI don't care how strong the slav is, getting into a fight with a bear is going to end in the bear winning.>but that one timeThere's a reason there's only one recorded instance of "that one time" and that's because lone melee with a bear is a terrible idea.
>>65125830How exactly? You could be as strong as an ox and have the best knife of superduper smgrovnggr113 +++ steel and you'd still get mauled because its a bear and every single human on earth gets their ass handed by a bear if they decide to attack it with a knife.What do you want to do? Start tunneling to its heart with that little blade? Somehow slash it's troat before it gets its jaws around your head?Not a chance with a 3inch. Even a machete or sword would get you mauled. Boar spear and you'd have a slight chance.
>>65126809Idk man, a gigadose of concentrated capsaicin would incapacitate most things. Guns are better, but bear mace is not without merit.>T. I got maced once by a troon
Bears are caniformsDogs are caniformsBears are dogsAnd dogs are friendsSo bears are friends Bears wouldn’t attack you because friends don’t attack friends. Picrel: a (white aryan) man hanging out with his best bud.I defy any of you autists to poke a hole in my logic.
>>65131949I always wondered what audio the camera (the cap was on while accidentally filming) caught. Supposedly you can hear him being eaten alive. People don't respect these animals enough
>>65131931Why were you attacking a troon
>>65132043I wasn’t attacking a troon, lol. I Briefly Worked at a sunglasses hut around 2012. We got robbed. One of the robbers was a black troon who maced me and my coworker. It hurts, bad.>>65132035It’s Insane to hang around bears, but that guy was just schizo.There was a story in the news last year about a bear taking refuge and living under someone’s house in CA following the fires. Lived in the crawlspace for a couple weeks, ventured to the kitchen every now and then before they finally got him/her out. This was my uncle’s neighbor. He had such a casual attitude to the bear. It would rummage through his trash, Stroll through his property, and he just didn’t give a shit. He barely had a sense of danger. Like the bear was a tenant he just had to avoid.
>>65131119I just use a Sharpmaker with the diamond sticks, and a leather strop. Magnacut in my experience strops really nicely.
>>65131169This is a better shaped blade for a grizzly i agree. Is it hard steel tho?
>>65131203Jesus fucking Christ that picture is going to stick with me for a while. Why did i click on it jesus.
>>65131220What is wrong with that dudes forearms they look like they arent even there
>>65131332Dafuq is a boar spear
>>65131949Is that the guy from that doc who got eaten by a bear?
>>65132148Black bear of grizzly bear? Its a big difference
>>65132161The sticks dont work that well.
>>65132035I dont know why but ive have an urge to listen to the audio recording. The fakes are just stupid. I want to hear the real thing.
>>65135143D2, it's average
>>65135161Black bear, but a large one. I don’t think there are any grizzlies in California. SoCal atleast.
>>65135653>grizzlies in CaliforniaThere used to be, they're on the flag for a reason
>>65135675I was gonna ask if we killed them all but thought I should google it first. Yeah. We killed them all.
There's a reason your gwailo ancestors refused to call this animal by its real name (arto or arktos) and instead called it the "brown one" (bera, bear). Entire civilizations and races were scared shitless to even say its name out loud, and you think anyone can fight a bear hand to hand?
>>65138185Did you know that hokuto no ken translates to fist of the north star? The north star being polaris which part of the little dipper. The little dipper also known as ursa minor, meaning little bear. Next to it is the big dipper, or ursa major. And if you antagonize a little bear with a big bear, you are already dead, inspiring the saying "omae wa mou shindeiru"
