it literally looks like Kurt and Zach are sitting in opposite corners of the same garage

Yes! I've missed sensei Kurt SO much!

I thought that Kurt was a knife maker at first. Didn’t recognize him without the beard

dude Blade HQ has the best customer service hands down. Thank you Nathan J. for your expedient and professional help! Ordered the wrong Spyderco and getting the order canceled and a store credit for the correct model was insanely quick and also learned if logged into my account I can do it myself in the future. Thanks y'all!

Feel like Kurt got bored and shaved with his bugout 😂

Zac looks high.

Did y'all buy a Chinese knockoff Kurt on accident? This guy sounds like the real deal, but the small details are wrong, mainly the beard. They just didn't get it quite right

Knife video in the middle of the day !! Just don’t tell my boss I’m watching instead of working !!! Nice to see Kurt is still alive !! We missed ya man !!

I love my Tops CSAR-T. I'm an EMT and this is my EDC, I use it at work, I use it while hiking, and fishing. It's a no nonsense heavy duty folding work knife. It has a bunch of features I love, like a glass breaker, seat belt cutter, and the lanyard hole doubles as a hex bit insert for a multitool kit you can buy separately for it. I bought my first one a couple years ago and ended up giving it to my sister when she deployed to Iraq. So of course I had to buy another one for myself.

So glad to see Kurt back on! Missed the dynamic duo you guys make together.

My hogue has never failed or missed a perfect launch, super heavy built & oh’ that kick!!

If there's ever been a time to buy American instead of chineese its now.

Best knife banter yet! This is now the list for my first knife collection. Not that there aren't nice knives made in other countries but they will have to wait until my American made collection is built. Good show!

I love my Leatherman Free P2, it’s the only tool I used when putting together all of the furniture in my friends apartment and my own.

Awesome videos ,great to see Zack and Kurt again

Thankyou for everything you do !

Jamie at the outro is icing on the cake! More airtime for Jamie!

Awesome that you two are back together on the small screen again!

I love the interaction between you two very knowledgeable knife guys. My main knife is a Kershaw Ken Onion that I bought in Maui back in 1995 from the Snap On dealer. He would pull up in front of our hangar every week so the A&P mechanics (helicopter) could view and handle new tools or find replacements for lost or damaged ones. As the parts manager I needed a knife to open packages, boxes and an assortment of other containers. I figured I could drop 20 or 25 bucks on an inexpensive knife. Snap On doesn't sell cheapo knives...and he jokingly gave me the directions to Walmart. Well, $85 later I stepped out of the truck with a Kershaw Ken Onion which I still carry today except that it's missing the pocket clip which I lost on a hike. It's still in its original condition but I have to pocket carry it but no big deal. It has never lost its sharpness and performs camp chores easily, especially slicing into juicy steaks. Zac, I know you're a motorcycle guy...what do you ride? I'm itching to get back on another bike soon, possibly another Fat Boy; sold my 2008 model before leaving SoCal in 2014. Anyway, I love these blade banters and you guys have helped us through this maddening crisis with new knowledge of knives and sore gut muscles due to laughter. Mahalo, guys!

Super happy to see Kurt again! Great video!😎👍

Big fan of some Emerson knives like the Tiger, Commander, and all sorts of others! The Seax has actually been one I’ve gravitated to the past month or so because of that precise point 👍🏼

Been using the tops kitchen knives for a while now. I love them!

Good to see Kurt back! Great video Zac.

Hey Kurt, that's a pretty nice tan for someone who has been hiding out in your shelter! Glad to see you back on the videos again

So good to see the dream team back together again zac/Kurt 2020

I thought I was the only one I. 'Merica to own a Crunch ! Bought one for my stepdad who fly fishes, figured it would be a good tool to have in the field........talked so much about. He gave me one on my birthday back in '99. Carry it every day !

New Knife Banter AND Kurt is back... Yessssss

Cool vid, i like it, keep up the good work

I like the trim. Showcases Kurt’s smile.

Great show love American made.

TOPS is without a doubt my favorite knives!

THAT IS MY HOUGE!!!! Except my blade is different. LOVE THIS KNIFE ...cracks me up every time deploys...kicks like a mule!!! 💓💞

Nice to see ya Kurt big ups!

I love Emerson knives. I have had CRKT, Gerber, Buck, Cold Steel, on and on Sticking with my CQC 8 and my CQC 15. The CQC 8 I have carried every day for years, used and abused and it still is going strong

Next episode put Kurt on the left side

WOOOO Kurt's back! Missed those hams!

Kurt is GLOWING. Living his best life.

Kurt - I thought the same thing about the launch 11 - needed a deep carry clip. Emailed Kershaw and they said yes we have them, we will send you a deep carry that will fit the launch for free. So i bought it. Clip should be here any day now, love the knife too!

Love you guys keep it up

just got my tops bull-trout, making a cross draw sheath for it now!

At 32:16 when you almost said shit downs had me rolling 😂

Just got my first Emerson and I have to say it’s pretty awesome. Waving this thing out of the pocket is overboard in the office and gets me some WTF looks, but man, it’s great.

Great video! I added a few to my wish list. Hinderer was suspiciously absent.

Quarantine got you lookin buff, Kurt. Keep it up!

Best one yet. With close ups.

I got the Tops Bob for my nephew for his birthday. He is in the Air Force and loves to go camping. He said it is now his favorite knife.

Never see you guys do a review on a Gough custom knife would be interested to know what you guys think about it thank you keep up the good work

I would love to see that SBR in a flipper.Also-Zac, I finally ordered a Swiss Army compact

Can we all agree that Jamie’s ever changing end screen is the best part of these videos during quarantine?

So happy they brought this cute couple back. Zac definitely crushing on beardless Kurt lol.

Today just k Eeps getting better! Nkd and a knife banter!

I just bought my 1st Spyderco. The Para 3. I absolutely love it. SOG is another company I like.

leatherman is very useful. My leather man surge has been with me for 6 years and had zero problem. Other knife is good for playing but if you cut things all day long, a simple $15 utility knife from Milwaukee is better. I don’t have time to sharpen knife.

My favorite ProTech is the TR3 Manual. Just got to the part on Spider Co knives and the weirdest one I own is the Dodo. I never use it but I'll never let it go. It just makes me smile when I pull it out and look at it.

Hi Curt!!!!!! Welcome back!!!

Zac and Curt... I love you guys!

Kurt man, looking great! The new & improved Kurt 2 point Oh! Coming to a Blade HQ video near you! Hope your finger heels up good. Been there before. Needed a new hammer afterwards because I whipped it off the roof & went (of ALL places) in the damn dumpster lol. Weeeellllp, it's gone. Time for an upgrade!

I was gifted a tops Bob. it's special to me. We've been through a lot together. I've batoned it through hard cured Oak, to the point the entire blade was in a block of wood and I had to bust it apart with an axe to retrieve my knife. It's my one tool option, for realsies ; )

Knife Life, so the best shirt ever.Kurt it’s the WOOOOW straight P I M P, love the finger sock.🤣

Spyderco makes nice knives! I have the Endura 4, and I love it! 😀

Ka-Bar is a big one in my opinion. Long time bladeHQ customer and subscriber. Keep it up guys I’ll have to send you guys a pic of my obscenely large knife collection I think you’d be proud of me haha

I'm actually waiting for my 4th Tops BOB 154 to arrive now. Of course it was purchased from you guys... lol

I almost didn't recognize you at first but you look good without a beard brother.

Reinhold Rhino! I loved that knife from announcement, so last year when I turned 26 I bought it for myself :D

I got a gold plated utx 70 and I love it.

Leatherman wave plus,that's the best one

Those tops knives are absolute FIRE!!!! I'm feeling the BOB but that mini scandi looks super nifty. Awesome stuff!!!

That freak has been my edc for like a year now, works great for everything holds edge forever sharpens easy and takes a hell of a beating. It’s essential a folding fixed blade 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸

Dude as soon as the video started, I went full R. Lee Eremy, from full metal jacket when he finds the doughnut lol. “Holy Jesus, what is that? WTF IS THAT?” Lol great to see you again buddy.

I still have my old original leatherman from back in 90's,, it still works perfectly....

After carrying the wave for a couple years in my pocket I found it would sometimes come partially open if I was taking my keys out of my pocket or digging around in my pocket since the clip was on the back side arm. Wish it was on the front side arm then it could anchoring it and preventing it from partially opening. Other than that it was amazing to have. A little heavy, a little thick and big for everyday edc but still so useful in so many situations you inevitably find yourself in.

Hell yea kurt the man. Beardless bros..

Initial thought; Did Eleanor get kurt again??😂😂😂

I really appreciate every video. It’s a nice break from the world right now.

I love my Hogue and CRKT knives. Kershaw makes great knives.

That Exocet looks a lot like the Tekna Security Card Knife back in the late 80's/early 90's.

I edc my Kershaw Blur... Also I edc sometimes my 587 Mini Warn Edition Benchmade bot back in 2011... Love me some Portland knives

Kurt, check out the Xancudo. You mentioned that you were looking for a 3" fixed blade, you might dig on this one.

Kinda surprised that nothing was said about Buck....

Yes! Ham hands back in front of the camera!

Spyderco is my favorite. They stay sharp and just work

Good to see Kurt

Could you do a video on what blade shapes are for what purpose ? Lastly the different ways of carrying your knife I.e hip, pocket, etc I would be much appreciative thanks

Buck 722 Spitfire, Kershaw 1600 and 1610, Emerson Combat Karambit. These are great made by some of the best!

Why is Kurt literally GLOWING

Excellent, thank you. Need? No. Want? Boy, oh, boy! Automatic? Fixed blade.... Thanks again.

My favorite USA makers are Melvin Lozada and Casey Middleton. Both are custom makers but they are not only fantastic craftsman but they are fantastic human beings. I hope one day you guys will do a video spotlighting all of the amazing American custom makers we have In our beautiful country. Thank you for an amazing video.

Yes!!! Kurt's back, and now with 90% less beard.

My favorite knife out of all of mine is my stonewashed AFO 9050. American made, really solid, feels good in the ham sharks.

Case sod buster/jr and a buck 110 is a great place to start I also really enjoy the leatherman rev if you want a multi tool

Wait y'all gotta warehouse in VA! Shoutout from dinwiddi near Richmond!

Hey y’all should do a knife banter on innovative knife uses. Like at the beginning of Gerber’s “Unstoppable” video where he uses the knife and nail to cut a strip of leather.

Finally Kurt is back!!!!!!!

Can we get a series with zac and Kurt talking about useful hacks, i too would like to learn that trucker knot

i Almost have enough money to buy the mini out um so excited!!!

Question for those who know more than me: My dad had a old and very compact American made folding Buck knife that I absolutely loved. It just felt super tough and solid and the transition from the polished wood to metal was seamless. It really felt indestructible. It also had a nice more rounded shape to it that felt great. I am currently in the market for a small knife with a similar feel since this one might be out of production. Any recommendations?

The duck commander ZZ Top beard is over! Looking good Kurt!

Kurt you need to make a shirt that says "Protect the Hams" as someone who also has larger hands and am I always cutting them, smashing them and burning them would totally be in for that T.

Great episode guys as always. Thoughts for a video. BladeHQ has so many 500-2000+ dollar knives that I think you could show off some of the super super high end knives and then maybe something comparable on the cheep end also keep up all the great content guys.

Woah, botha ma bois have gone beardless. Bold statement
