Check out the designer Azo here: / azomight
Kizer's new Drop Bear is more than just a new Axis Style Lock knife. With a 154 CM Blade, aluminum scales, buttery smooth action, and a new perfect fit in the hand you can bet it's exactly what you would expect from a company like Kizer. Kizer is calling the lock the Clutch Lock it runs on Omega Springs and it is adjustable! This simple but ingenious design is going to give you five levels of adjustability to your Clutch Lock making it the first type of this lock that can be personalized and customized from factory! Since they are inviting us into the knife they put great consideration into accessing the adjustable Clutch System but making the scales sit on top of the stainless steel liners using only two torx head screws. The also made the pivot screws independent of one another using a D-Shaped pivot nut. So you can take apart one whole side of the knife without having to consider the other.
The Clutch Lock on the Kizer Drop Bear is a really innovative design not because it's overly complicated or because it's something entirely new but because it's the first to open the door to variation in a lot of our favorite lock type. I've been carrying the Drop Bear for a few weeks now and am really loving it as a new knife and I am really excited to see what potential it has unlocked for the 'Axis' Style lock world.

there actually were 'copies' of the compression lock made... there was a company out of germany called 'cherusker messer'. they had two or three overseas produced models in their lineup that used a 'puzzle lock' which was essentially a modified compression lock. operated the same, but the engaging interface was a bit different. the models were one jürgen schanz design, more utilitarian in character, and the 'lapu lapu corto' by bram frank in at least three sizes, which is a highly specialized self defense design.

Remember Ya'll, if you're not familiar with Axis-style locks, that you'll need to adjust both springs if you're changing the spring position, not just one. You probably could get away with just doing one spring, but the tension might feel a little wonky, & it could be harder on the springs, making them more likely to break. Overall I think it's really cool to see something like this, especially since it only involves simply drilling a few extra holes for one end of the spring. Great job as always, Kizer! As a side note: Yes, I have had several Benchmade Omega springs break on me, without significant fidgeting or anything. I actually prefer the aftermarket springs much more & those have never broken on me. Any time I get a new Benchmade now, I immediately replace the springs. The aftermarket springs alsao have just a touch more tension than factory ones from BM, which is nice since I get tension I like without having to bend the new springs.

Common sense first evolution for the lock, I'm shocked no one has done it before now, congratulations Kizer. And to include extra hardware and springs, is class act, and should be the standard across the board, even if it's baked into the price. Still reasonably prices also, as you may otherwise spend the money and don't like it, because of the lock/detent tension. All that and the Lefty Love, puts this on my list of wants.

I recently had an Omega spring break on my Bugout. I wrote Benchmade and they said they couldn’t send me an extra set and that I had to send it in for warranty repair and from what I hear that takes several weeks. So I said to heck with it and ordered aftermarket springs and fixed it myself in just a few days time. You are right about these big knife brands needing to jump on the boat and offer more options for those of us who enjoy working on our own knives. Great video Zac. Keep it up. 👍🏻

(I don't even like sports, but that's some serious sentimental value). My Off Grid Knives Scorpion Stratus was the first over-$100 knives that I got. There's a bunch. If I had to pick five of my knives to cover all of my knife needs and get rid of all the rest, my list would probably be as follows. (And I'm not saying this is the right list for ANYBODY else). In no particular order: - Kizer Drop Bear - Aluminum scales Benchmade Bugout - Baby Banter - Microtech Ultratech S/E OTF - Traditional Ka-Bar This doesn't include my damascus Sujihiki, my hand-made chef's knife from Toledo, Spain, or my hand-made, gorgeous chef's knife from Marcus Johnson Bladesmithing.

I have a Griptillian, I always want to call it a Gripzilla for some reason, lol. Anyway, awesome knife, had it for about 12 years no problems except one of the springs for the Axis lock became dislodged about 5 years ago and reduced the tension just enough so I can now easily close it one handed with just my thumb pulling only one side of the lock back as opposed to having to pull both sides with thumb and forefinger. So the flaw became a feature. But I really like how this new Kizer let's you adjust the detent from the start. Great innovation. But much respect to Benchmade for the original concept. 👍😎👍

I just got this knife yesterday for Christmas. I had never heard of Kizer before yesterday. In my opinion this knife is every bit as smooth and nicely finished as the couple of Benchmade knives I have, possible more so. Zero blade play, well balanced, nice quality pocket clip, and super silky smooth action. The only downside for some people is that it's made in China.

And this is why patients have an expiration date. Benchmade found a real winner in the axis lock and ran with it was long a they could solo to tie it to their brand. Now we can start to see companies doing cool stuff like this so they aren't just making a vanilla copy of the original. I dig the extra springs too. I have never broken a set of omega springs but my main work knife wore out a set. The center of the springs were sanded down by dirt and grime until they fell in two. I digress, great video once again sir. I look forward to the next one.

This is a fantastic innovation on the axis lock. The only thing extra that I would have asked for is for the tightest setting to be more than your normal amount. The lightest should have been less than most people want and the tightest should have been more than most people want to give both extremes and everything in between. The lightest probably already is, but I love the spring tension on an axis mechanism. I'm sure you could tweak the spring to do whatever you want or even drill your own custom settings into the frame. Awesome knaf and awesome review!

Great review Zac! Thanks for bringing this to our attention because I'm not sure I would have heard of this knife otherwise. This is a really cool idea for a knife, but part of me wonders about the longevity of the springs if you adjust them too much. I think it's a cool idea and I hope Kizer is successful with it though! I'd also be curious about it's use in a larger knife with a three and a half to four inch blade. I also wonder how well it will actually sell in the market? Will people see this as just a gimmick or as an actual advancement in knife design? I don't know. I feel like Kizer is one of those big knife brands that is always the bridesmaid never the bride. They don't have the big reputation of the much bigger brands (at least in North America) like your Benchmades, Bucks, Spydercos, WE's, Cold Steel or CRKT's, but they also don't have that niche boutique feel of smaller brands for Chris Reeve or Knafs or Vero. Kizer has always been a brand I appreciate but never actually owned. Wow, I didn't know I had such complex emotions over a knife company, anyway if you've read this far thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Living in Belgium could make it very difficult to obtain spare omega springs from benchmade for example...And from the inventor of the axis-lock, the success of the brand and the price range of benchmade, don't see that kind of things(the spare parts), it's just a shame... Again great review from your part! Greetings from Belgium! And sorry for my very average and poor english....;(

I’d be curious to know which tension level compares to the bugout? Because I think the pull on the bugout is perfect

GREAT review, of course. Very interesting knife as well! Almost makes me want to buy from China again 😁 I think you've become my favorite channel on KZfaq, keep up the good work 😎👍

Impressive, both the knife’s features, your presentation and your access to this new knife. Not many other American knife bloggers have presented it yet. One question, what is the default spring setting out of the box (1-5)? Keep up the good content. Shoutout to Jamie on the drop bear effects.

Thank you! The ones they sent over were set at 5 or the most resistance. I would assume that is how they will all ship.

Another great video. So simple thing like 5 small holes in the frame making so huge difference 🤔 It’s very nice that Kizer adding extra set of springs, so far I have only 1 knife with axis lock ( mini griptilian) and often I’m wondering what I’m gonna do if omega spring will brake? Of course is millions ways and tricks on KZfaq but I couldn’t find original replacement set in any knives shops what I’m using 😒 Are you planning record something with Kurt? I’m sure lot of us waiting for it.
