Nope it's a lockable blade. As far as I'm concerned a fixed blade does NOT hinge and there should be a tang fixed into the handle in whole or in part.

Hit them once per like!

It’s not about us willing to see it happen, it’s about you being willing enough to smash those things my man

Cold Steel starts to salivate when they hear a competitor say "turns into fixed blade"

So just to note, this knife is a sanrenmu 1161 slightly customized If you look on Chinese b2c websites you can find a version of this with 14c28n blade steel and titanium scales

You gotta do it, that was the first real knife I ever bought and I carried it for at least 4 years

The CRKT Crawford Kasper also has one of these, feels really nice to use as your thumb naturally presses it forwards when you put any major pressure on the knife

I'm about that life my friend. I wanna see how far you can push that Beta Lock. If it holds up, I'll frigging purchase 20 on my first order. I want all of my Soldiers to have this blade.

Cold Steel posts very accurate lock mechanism torture tests on their page. May be cool to see you perform something similar - thanks for the vids bro!

Amazon. I've two of the Ruike folders , one is considered to be a tactical folder with 14C28N with semi custom blue fat carbon. It was about 100 bucks, 4 " mirror finish blade, super slicey. For Taiwanese made, its a collectable,( in my opinion).

*Cold Steel Tri-Ad Lock enters chat*

The lock is there for legal reasons, in many states/countries you get in far worse trouble if you stab someone with a switch blade than a solid one. Solid one indicates heat of the moment while switch blade requires intent...

that's a sweet freaking knife. and yes I want to see the tests!!!

Very pretty blades! Excited to see what comes of them

I've been wanting to get a well made, high quality steel gravity knife.

The blade is very well designed and beautiful!

I will contribute to your noble cause 👍

yes absolutely I'm Interested on seeing that

R.I.P to that folding "fixed blade". Looking forward to the science!

probably my favorite budget knife brand, I got the p801 a few years ago and I love it, the bearings are amazing for a night that I bought for like 26 bucks

A thing literally nobody considers is the fact that the blade stop pin is as much important as the lock even more because the pressure is mostly upwards

Don't do it until it fails, do it until you get through the board. It doesn't have to fail to prove it's strong enough

Would love to see that video.

Haven't heard the "fixed blade" claim from them but some Cold Steel folders have a similar lock on them.

YES SIR!!! I speak for the knife community/KZfaq community when I say we must see this video! Lol. Let’s do some hardcore abuse and find out what this lock is made of.

I think you’re there bro, let’s see it!

Definitely want to see this!

Yes I'm very interested in seeing this. I think u should just do it for the community.. forget the likes.. the community needs to see this. Cause if there gonna call it a fixed blade and it's not they need to be exposed.

Beautiful piece

I'd like to see it pushed to failure and compaired to other knife companies with similar secondary locking features

The Waffle House has found its new host.

One of the best E.D.C. knives I carry, coming from a sailor in The Royal Canadian Navy

that lever being on the *inside* of the handle completely unshielded sounds like the absolute best way to cut off all of your fingers by stabbing just wrong. That's probably why they added the lock, because if you grip it hard enough, it just because a small guillotine.

It failed the test for the new people watching this

You got yourself a winning video bud, good luck with your channel boss 👍🏼

It’s great that they put a safety on the lock and it has its place but that is not as strong as a fixed blade. I’d imagine it’s probably as durable as a knife with a very thin tang. But that pivot is going to be taking a lot of strain.

No matter how good the lock is, the blade is held at the bearing. No hidden or full tang here. So every impact a fixed blade might handle is fully on the bearing here.

Yes, of course, please, do it!!

Yesssss I Do! But I would challenge them to whether it holds up or not

I like how that locks the release lever, I had times that my grip presses the lever down making my knife unfixed whilst in use. 😬

The lock seems crazy smooth

I have the second knife as my EDC and I love it.

I have the same knife and I’ve used the lock for such purposes as prying things open and using a hammer on the back in a pinch, and I can say that thing is fucking strong. Had the knife for about 3-4 years and the only thing that’s broke is the pocket clip, which Ruike sent me a new one no questions asked. Definitely recommend this knife as a daily carry for any purpose

From a simple engineering perspective thats gonna be stronger than you think as all its doing is locking the locking bar the force it will be under is a fraction of what is imparted to the initial locking component

Crkt did this in the early 2000s. Even upgraded it to auto spring the secondary lock

Beautiful knife if it works thru the "fixed" test id buy one

A frame lock that I would consider.

Yep! I sure am! Immortals..huh..put their name to the test! 🤘

I feel the lock on my Benchmade barrage is stronger, the bar lock is why I bought it.

I have this knife and it's in my EDC at least 2x a month. Great knife, stays smooth as silk and stays sharp. Definitely not a "fixed" blade

Hits over double nice... algorithm is starting to see you!

I got the p108 after your video and I love it. I'd love to see that test

DPX been doing this sorta lock. I personally love it on the DPX. It’s made to be a hard user so it’s perfect

Framelocks can be quite strong -- until the lock fails, so they really need a secondary lock, but no folding knife is "the same as" a fixed blade.

The P108 is one of my favorite f9lders

You darn skippy I’m interested! Let’s do this so I know if I “need” one or not!!!!

I found the 2nd video the blade he talks about does not work as a fixed blade. There saved you time. The 2nd one however did work

Interesting... If the beta lock loosens much, then it becomes possible the close on yer fingers... I would like to see that "beta lock" after the hammering.

Not the only knife that does that. My off grid knife does it too

Thanks!

Hell yea im down to watch you go ham on that bad boy put her through the paces. That whole now its a fixed blade thing gives me a rash. No folder will ever be the same as a proper full tang fixed blade

Cold steel had a safety for their liner locks 10 years ago. Even Lynn said that folders are not stronger or equal to fixed blades... the man who makes knoves that are nuclear bomb proof. Ruike aint got shit

I believe in the 2nd lock. Totally fixed blade once activated.

I had it,i did batooning on a small piece of wood with beta lcok on and the screw that hold the button just broke in half...betalock was fly'n away and the lock bar was damages,but still worked fine :))

Have fun 10k!

My right ear loved this video

That's a good looking knife from what we can see..., test it out!! If your hands are as big as mine, it's got the proper curve to the blade..... Good skinning tool

Had one for a year, and it’s really a tough knife! Love it!

Please test it! The best folding knife that doubles as a fixed blade is a bali

Nice, glad you got the 20k likes (and then some). Of course youtube only told me about it just now.

10k!! Tomorrow I will be waiting ✋️!! Lol ☕️

Can say first hand that lock will put up a good fight before failure

Yeah. Do that knife. And do a CRKT with a handle release lock. They have a good frame lock.

In a word, yes please!

Thanks for responding to my comment 😁 📌

Please do, because I love the look of the knife.

Seems like a good idea, I once had a knife collapse on my hand while cutting open a box a little too enthusiastically. Cut the crap outa my finger and hurt like hell

You would have to do it to 2 of them for proper testing. One with the beta lock engaged. And one without. Then you could see the difference in strength from locked vs unlocked.

If anyone calls this a fixed blade, I will personally castrate them as punishment. No, this is not a fixed blade. Fixed blade designs are designed to be sturdier with a tang, full handle, sheathes for carry, and can get away with much more length. That’s why there are classifications for knives. Fixed knives have a tang and don’t move, examples are the K-Bar, Karambit, hunting knives, dirks/daggers, and by technicality, swords. Switchblades are spring powered knives and not like gravity knives that require the use of gravitational force. Already explained gravity knives just a moment ago. Flip knives can either flick out in their own or require the use of your finger to lock it in place at a final position. Usually less sturdy than fixed blade designs, but are often smaller, fairly secure, and best for the average Joe. And the butterfly knife is just a knife that has to be flipped out and is generally more of a trick knife than a practical knife.

I've batoned light kendalling with a swiss army knife, that has a shorter thinner blade, I'm sure that can take anything where the diameter is shorter then the blade, maybe double the blade if you're careful and go back and fourth between sides.

They can prefer what they like, it's Ruike!

doesnt matter if its locked or whatever, it still has a pivot and the blade steel is only so long. still folds when you unlock it.

My Cold steel Luzon has the same thing, because it’s a frame lock. It only makes sense.

Yes

My cold steel Luzon has a similar mechanism for locking. Still works fine without it though.

**the crowd responds** "DO IT!!" "DO IT!!"

Bro they are probably saying that for legality not necessarily because of "strength or comparison to a fix blade knife"

My brother got me one of these for Christmas. Smooth, decent quality. Use it all the time, it's been great. Have never used that bullshit button tho

Yes please!

Maxlvledc: asks KZfaq audience if they want to see things destroyed KZfaq audience:

It's like CRKT's M16 lineup that also has a similar feature

Let's start!!! 😁

The little Tang that locks the blade in place will break first guaranteed just get the crtk with the double lock the spear tip

My Benchmade Auto Triage knives do that as well. No big deal

Do it! Do it! Do it! I want to see that bad boy collapse under pressure.

Que song now... Ring the bell, school's back in Break it down! Stop Hammer time!

Fantastic knife.

that looks like a knife I saw that at Walmart but minus the little button thingy

looks like something a wobbly robot from starwars would use lol.
