NICE this is exactly what I thought it was about to be I don’t see many people talking about this technique but it works so good on big cold steel folders I figured this out myself with my cold steel voyager xl tanto I was getting ready to write up a whole paragraph about this but I’m glad you’re finally the first person I’ve seen to do it
@kungfulovenyc42733 жыл бұрын
Hey bro, yeah I agree don't see many people talking about this. The more you practice the smaller you will be able to open. I made a updated version of this with less talking and I was able ro do it with a spyderco civilian without fail really cool.

I carry the xl espada with the g10 handle. It is in my rotation. It fits in my 501s front right pocket . Not uncomfortable at all . I love the positive lockup when I open that bad boy . I adjust or tighten the screws on all my knives. After I get the screws the way I like them I put a drop of super glue or nail polish on them . It keeps them from backing out .

That sounds cool, I thought about trying to weld it 😂, that's 1 reason I like spyderco karahawk because the Emerson is apart of the blade. But tbh I prefer carrying the talwar and the holdout from cold steel. The holdeout I'm trying to get custom scales that offer better slip protection.

@cemetery895 Жыл бұрын
Wrist flicking and wave seem to be the best ways to open the Espada XL one handed, closing it one handed is easy once the tri ad lock breaks in. For a smaller one like a Luzon Large I do a reverse flick on the fuller combined with a wrist flick or just wave.
@cemetery895 Жыл бұрын
I found out how to open it slowly with one hand and no flick btw. If you just put your index finger on the tang (while closed), put your thumb on the thumb plate corner, and put the rest of your fingers on the handle you can slowly turn the blade out safely. And to close it with one hand safely, hold the top of the handle downwards slightly, and the bottom upwards slightly, and with your index finger in the finger groove press the tri ad lock. The blade will fall only 10% closed if your holding it correctly and the ricasso of the blade won't hit your index finger, but your finger and the ricasso act as a safety in case it does touch you. Then get your fingers out of the way and use momentum to get it to shut all the way.

@kungfulovenyc42733 жыл бұрын
That's awesome bro, took me a little bit to get it down but we are creating force from the hand turning over all the way and then you will feel your forearm muscles used. Keep your arm bent from bicep to forearm 90 degrees and elbow 3 Inches away from your side. When you do it at the same time move your elbow inward towards your stomach while hand turn over. I like to think of it like gears working together. I'll share more with you just need a person to demonstrate with. Thanks again brother.

I think it's a reverse camera that makes the clips appear to be on the left side ,a lot of videos is see made in cars be like that also 💰 The technique he use is good and works great ,much better than swinging your arm and possibly losing you knife because of it being to far out away from your body. His method is much better and efficient.
