FYI, QuietCarry has now confirmed to me and added to their website that the knife is made in Taiwan. Good news, Iceland-haters!

I can confirm that knife was indeed in Nicks shower on 14 of the nights I accidentally happened to be in a blimp nearby his house with the binoculars mounted to the blimps viewing carriage pointing at his bathroom.

you know the knife is damn good when the only real bad thing Nick has to complain about are Shallow screws.

Just picked up one of these in blue G10. WOW. The G10 is really super well done, the blue is very classy, and in stock now, FWIW. Mine has perfect action out of the box and came hair shaving sharp. Superb quality.

I've had this knife for months and I adore it, gets extremely sharp, holds it well and cuts like a dream. I have to say that though that with all the use I've put it through it's developed a small amount of play vertically at lockup. Overall in my opinion it's without reproach.

i will purchasing two for my shower one to open shampoo and one for conditioner

Thanks for your review Nicky. Very good job!!!

It's looking like this Quiet Carry Waypoint is going to make Nick Shabazz's Top 10 Knives of 2020. Great review video about a great knife. I've really liked the design/look of what Quiet Has put out so far. I haven't owned one yet but definitely hope too.

I’ve had this knife for approximately 3 months and it’s one of my favorites! From the action to the slim and relatively lightweight design (2.7 oz) and the wire deep carry clip just fantastic! Being completely rust proof is a big bonus. The Vanax blade came very sharp is very thin slicey. At $300 it’s not cheap and the only “negative” thing about it...but I guess you get what you pay for. Excellent EDC knife!

I bet the value of that knife triples for having showered with Nick.

When I first got this knife I knew it would be a Gem 💎!

The design and materials on this knife are a huge win. The price might seem a little steep at first, but when you compare it to what Spyderco is charging for some of their Taichung made knives it's not too far off. The warranty only applying to the original owner is kind of lame though. The thumb stud was more difficult for me from the left side at first, which was annoying as a lefty. Once the knife broke in a little it got much easier.

Can definitely see some sebenza influences, I like it.

I completely agree. This is a spectacular knife.

Finaly you made it :) ....i wait my waypoint. Knife of the year definetly!

I have vanax 37 (an older version of vanax super clean) on my Shirogorov jeans but that is a big blade, it would be nice to get it on a Slicey version of it!

As someone without the time or skills to maintain a needy EDC, this will definitely be a prime choice for me. That total rust resistance is unbelievable.

I put a KWIK Thumb Stud on my Quiet Carry Drift and now have the best of all possible worlds. I can Spydie flick it with my middle finger and I can flick it with my index finger. And now with the thumb stud I can thrust it open like Nick opens the Waypoint. It only took me 8 months to figure out to do this but I have a whole new love for it now.

I’m so glad I pulled the trigger and bought this knife earlier this year (also after seeing it in a Slicey Dicey video). I love it. I hope they will make more for those who can’t get one at present.

Nick, this is the first knife you’ve reviewed that has impressed me in a very, very long time. You can keep the incessant number of boring slipjoints and CRKTs that have “graced” your videos for far too long. This knife is worth the time, breath and bread.

First, really been looking forward to this review, i love the looks and idea of this knife, I may have to pick up the one with the golf ball ish texturing

Very cool knife, excellent review

Looks like the perfect edc! Damn I want one.

Love my Waypoint...I've had mine for 3 months now and it keeps finding it's way into my pocket

You and lynn Thompson are the only KZfaq knife people I have heard discuss shower knives

Custom Bugouts now available from Benchmade. Thanks Nick!

Amazing. I spent an hour yesterday looking for someone comparing it to the sebenza. Slicey Dicey did it. I was just waiting for your take on it. And it didn't take long.

Great steel, nice design, sold!

Resident Lefty. No issue with thumb studs. Absolutely love this knife. My only recommendation for improvement is lightening the handle more. it feels a bit tail heavy.

I would like to see a G10 version replacing the titanium scales. Hopefully cutting some of the price down a bit. Maybe even "standard" steels so that it is no longer rust proof...but most people really don't need that. Other than that it checks so many boxes: thin blade stock, washers, thumb studs, liner lock and wire clip. So great, just so expensive due to the rust proof thing.

I love the blade shape on this. It reminds me of the Benchmade 940 which is one of my favorite EDC knives. BUT... had some bad experiences with Benchmade over the last year and have decided to no longer buy from them. I love the axis lock but the blade profile and size vs how it carries is my favorite part. Have to do some reading about Vanax, I know very little about it.

Haha, “I don’t freakin’ know!”. Love it!!!

Is there anyway other ordering through the company to get this knife?

Have you noticed any blade play in long term use? I got mine a week ago and there seems to be a bit of vertical play and that has me concerned. Do you think I should contact warranty support?

I absolutely will be buying one of these when they become available again. I’m always around water I love my dragonfly h1 but the edge retention isn’t great. Vanax steel seems to be an amazing steel.

Nick’s reviews got me interested in collecting a few knives. The final result so far is I got a balisong from Benchmade. I now have three sliced fingers. Thanks a lot Nick.

My favorite knife

Thanks for the video 😎👍

Quarantine. We gotta do ah paht. Lol as a Brooklynite I salute you sir

I have been trying to get the Drift for almost a year now. I have a Waypoint and the IQ also and love them both.

Nice hollow grind. Should like to see it more often on stuff that doesn't cost a fortune.

yassss Nick. was waiting for this vid to confirm what I already knew. time to pull the trigger on a waypoint!

Nick you need to get you a spyderco manix 2. I got a dlt exclusive in 20cv and I love it

Hey can anyone tell me the difference between all the Waypoint knives on their website? They look the same but one says SWSW and another says SWSA and one says BBSA.

Lol, this was a funny review. I really enjoyed it. :)

Nick you’re killing me here!!! It’s a great knife I love everything about it especially me being a lefty not many of the great knives are ambidextrous but they are all sold out!!!

It's gorgeous. I wish I could justify the $300 for a knife because I really want one.

that knife has seen things

Is the float on this knife good?

All waterproof stuff aside, they just make a handsome knife.

Hey Nick, do you review fixed blade knifes?

So, I should get this?

Hey Nick, I’m sure someone else mentioned this but your intro says you’re reviewing the quiet carry Drift.

Is it the Waypoint or the Drift? I don't know what to believe anymore.

Nice knife.

That left hand thumb stud cutout shouldn’t be a problem in my experience.

“It’s traumatized a little bit, but it’s fine” never had a knife review speak to me like that. LMFAOOOO

Did they make changes to the waypoint with the october restock? I thought I heard slicedicey mention a quality control update a la spyderco

Quiet carry dropped some of these yesterday. So they are currently available.

Hey, Nick I’m thinking Sanremu ? What are you thoughts about the maker??? Just for conversation sakes. Regardless of the maker seems to be one hell of a nice knife! Thank you for your vids

So, now I need this Icelandic shower knife?!

Possible knives of the year... QC Waypoint, CKF Fif20, Spyderco Astute

The knife I’ve been dreaming about💜

Perfect EDC for Aquaman

Ican get one for 400 . Is it worth it off ebay

Didn't realize the weird pivot design and asked Quiet Carry for help with the pivot loosening. He pretty much told me that since I took it apart it voided the warranty and I was on my own. Once I figured it out it was an easy fix. Poor customer interaction and service. I can't endorse a company that treats its customers so poorly.

You had me at .08 in blade stock.

Fresh af

A bit off topic but I know that you appear to favour phosphor bronze washers. My Maserin Nimrod has teflon washers and I was wondering if the 2 types were interchangeable????

I found that I prefer carrying the Atom over this knife. M390 is still very rust-resistant, especially with edci. The slim handle design and stiffer detent on the Waypoint ended up being a combo that resulted in disaster for me. I didn't find it very controllable when opening the knife slowly because of the detent. The slim handle offers little grip, especially with the slick surface of the titanium. One day I was using it in wet conditions (like what it's made for), and when I tried to open the knife I bobbled it in my hand which resulted in me almost cutting my finger off. Had to get 11 stitches. I never felt confident in the purchase you get when gripping this knife, especially in wet conditions. I did feel it was only going to be a matter of time before I would drop it and break the tip. If the handle and blade were both increased in their height, and the Ti frame had milling, this would probably be my perfect knife for EDC without question. Unfortunate.

On mine, the pivot likes to unscrew itself if I flick it open like that. Besides that, I really like it.

I want one too!! October restock per the website! I want a drift also!

Looks nice. I have a large Sebenza and if I ever wanted a smaller one I might look into this instead. I don't like the secrecy around the manufacturer though.

Looks just like the Tactile Knife Rockwall

the pvd coating on the iq i purchased a while back was scratched to hell when i got it in

This is largely academic but Uddeholm claims that Vanax has the same corrosion resistance as 316L, but that's probably when it is in an annealed state, which is still really impressive considering 316L is an austenitic stainless, but isn't technically "rust-proof".

Online econ class orrrrrrr nick shabazz’s new video? The choice is pretty clear

Are you going to review headphones anytime? You should check out Audeze

SUPER NOŻYK, ZGRABNY, PORĘCZNY, ZAPEWNE TEŻ LEKKI ( TAKI AKURAT NA CODZIEŃ DO KIESZENI), I JAK PRZYPUSZCZAM, TEŻ NA PEWNO NIE ZA DROGI. AŻ CHCIAŁOBY SIĘ GO MIEĆ, TYLLO HDZIE HO KUPIĆ?

I'd be all over this knife if it were around the 200 mark. Considering I've never had any of my knives in the shower for a month, Vanax just doesn't appeal to me that much. If I could get this exact design with something like s35vn for $100 less, I'd probably buy it twice.

All these nice, aesthetically minimalistic, titanium handle scale pocket knives seem to be freaking impossible to get ahold of. I haven’t been able to find a standard small sebenza 31, quiet carry waypoint, tactile rockwall (thumb stud), etc. It seems like none of those or similar styles ever seem to be available.

I have had a LOT of trouble not carrying this instead of others for the past 4 months. It was like, made for me.

You’re always so charmingly self-deprecating when you’re really enamored with a piece 😛

SOLD OUT ........

Very nice. I bought the first drift I could get my hands on from urban edc supply and was so disappointed in the action, and the rolled edge that it put me off of quiet carry. The waypoint does interest me quite a bit though. I wish it was a little larger but it would be a great smaller edc.

And all of a sudden I need a shower knife

You don’t have a very good pokerface. :) I could hear in the beginning of the video how excited you were that this knife was going to be a gem. :)

If QUIET CARRY READS THIS-PLEASE MAKE A LOT MORE! I promise they will all be sold. If you want happy customers make more than enough. I have a feeling if you made 1 million of them, you would still sell out! Please make a lot! I want one. Nothing is more frustrating than seeing OUT OF STOCK! Make more of the drift too! I didn’t pull the trigger and I regret it.

I just learned that I don't have a shower knife!!

snorks at "honey, why is there a knife in the shower?"

Quiet Carry should pay Nick for this review. Last smaller company that had a review like this, was TRM and it is now very hard to get a Neutron or an Atom. When they go on the used market, they are always full price and sell immediately. I've had a ton of offers for my BNIB TRM Neutron.

Just ordered the waypoint, the renegade gungnir, 2 pro tech exclusives and a spyderco shaman.... I’m going to have to take out a second mortgage if I keep spending like this....

That knife literally lasts forever. 300$ is fine

Available finishes: Bead-blasted Stone-washed Nick-showered

I could've sworn Nick already reviewed the waypoint; am I going crazy?

Nick...do you also run the KZfaq MMA site MixedMollyWhoppery?

I love that someone is making knives with thin slicey blade stock. Small folding knives don't need 3-4mm stock. No one is battoning or prying with a $300 knife. Also big props for the liner lock. Frame locks are ugly and compromise ergos. Excellent job, guy in California and nonspecific foreign factory!

Böker just released a DA Kalashnikov in D2...🤣

I think it's pretty cool how the thumb stud seems to travel along just the edge of the handle. From a distance it looks pretty much like a boring Swiss Army Knife. It's a little large on the blade.

They have a "murdered-out" Quiet Carry... 🤣
