I use a Kobalt utility knife from lowes I believe. It's a button lock and it's a gravity type of knife not a flipper, it has storage in the handle for 3X blades and the main blade releases with a little push button. It's cheap and ergonomic.

Awesome - bought both. Powerpint and the Roxon

I can't think of any utility blade holder that I would trade for the fastback in my use. Having an expendable edge that I don't care about plus a Phillips and flat always ready are great.

Nice review, covered the aspects people are most interested

It makes sense that you would like 14C28N for a steel, it's pretty much the PERFECT steel for a pocketknife, especially an EDC knife. Tough as hell, holds a decent edge, and bringing that edge back to microscopic levels of sharpness is exceedingly easy. For m money, if a pocketknife doesn't have 14C28N, AEB-L, or Magnacut, it really needs something outstanding about it to be considered. I like the Raccoon crossbar lock, but their new button lock with the spine liner lock (think of Spyderco Smock's Compression lock) is incredible.

Leatherman is the only multitool worth buying. Everything else is just a gimmick pocket decoration

No I use the screw driver daily and if I drank the bottle opener would be used daily as well.

Here's my question - Why do you think 1095 is worth a shit in the face of modern steels?

I love Joker and love Puuko and had no idea the two met and made love. Purchased before the video was done!

What do you think of Winkler's and RMJ's pricing for their 80CrV2 offerings??

Can't do a china knife.

And then there was Temu $24.98

THANK YOU!!!!! From the people who couldnt make a safe button lock, what did we expect? Ive said it MANY times, Vosteed has HUGE BA_LS asking 250-300 dollars for ANYTHING. If we told the truth, Vosteed is not a premium company and their designs have been mostly subpar to straight up failures.

Man I love what Roxon has been doing lately. Being innovative, producing solid tools, and very affordable.

Please compare it to the Espada XL

According to emerson he designs the knives to almost act as chisels. So the grind is for impact and scraping primarily.

Bought one. Those scissors are great for zip ties.

I've had some great luck with Boker over the years. Definitely had some bad ones. Their big negative seems like their expansive lineup leads to lower QC mass produced knives. When they're good, they're great. When they're bad, its pretty much a total failure. I still support them because they end up producing a ton of great designs at a reasonable price. Great knives for work

I've been looking at the Kihon since it was announced. I have one of the original Ti versions and I love it. Also, "genilla" is going to be my new term for generic vanilla designs

Why no Garmin InReach or similar? Essential now.

Switch off wifi, bluetooth, tracking, notifications etc on your phone to conserve battery.

get small power cords. I use 4" with 3 ends, C, Lightning, mini. Takes a quarter the room as your long ones

I know this knife has been around for a long time but I bought a brand new Kershaw kuro from blades HQ got it in the mail today I like it I put some extra 3 in 1 oil on knife so it opens a little quicker

id rather have a lock knife for safety but not an option where i live, also swiss army knives are fairly unintimidating and thats a benefit where i live too

Thanks for comparison and clear-cut review 👍 you cannot overvalue such a knife if you have been failed without such a thing when your life depends on it. Therefore, I have failed two times in my life: first, without any knife in woods I could not make a shelter for sleeping, second, with a cheap and unreliable knife I could not make a fire and have been freezing. So, naturally, after my failures, I understand how it is important to have such Mayhem whatever challenge you are facing eye to eye.

Cool but guys I think that, leatherman bond is so underrated

The swiss army knife is useless and poor quality

I think the atlas lock is a good all round lock, like the axis. And I'd say it's still less likely to leave you bleeding than any liner, frame, or button lock, and doesn't have weak omega springs.

Workpro little cutter is awesome

hold ur hands and the knife still omg

It's nothing special, though you wouldn't suspect it from the unhinged enthusiasm.

I got one a month ago and its all good noe bowing and the pivot is centered its a really good knife for the price since it seem yo be fixed.

Almost invented a new word... Generic + Vanilla = Genilla 😂 3:50

They are not even the same type of knives besides the locking system, so to compare and butter up to the sponsors does not seem too honest.

Adamas or Adira ??

Why do you "need" a locking blade? One handed deployment just makes it look like you want to carry a weapon, not a tool. We have laws against that (for good reason) here in the UK.

I watched as the price for the zilch climbed & climbed (20’s) until one day BHQ dropped the price to $16 on a weekend with free shipping. I ordered one and expect delivery today. I’m curious to see what I get for less than the cost of lunch.

If Gene used his Buck 110 to kill a grizzly, I would trust the Buck 120 to kill a dogman. Bucks heat treat is so good, that you don't really need to upgrade the steel. These super steels are for people who, either don't know how to sharpen a knife, beat their on their knives like a Tonka toy, or are too lazy to do it.

It seems the Elite/D2 version isn’t available on Amazon.

Yeah nope, this will maybe replace the fastback for an office worker or someone that carries it outside of a trade. I don’t see anyone in the trades swapping their fastback out with this because of the screw. Fast sick is tried and true and works every time.

still i choose SAK

I would love to bring some of the pioneers and hard core explorers from 200 year's ago into the 21st century and see what they had to say about all out "advanced" survival gear. Personally I'd love to drop some of these survival experts in the Aussie bush with a No 8 opinal and say see you in a week !

I like it

I think i would prefer the Boker. The rattle is surely annoying but the play in the blade would drive me nuts 😅. Also can we expect a review of the new Lionsteel KC-01 from you at some point in the future? Its probably hard to come by i guess. I think its supposed to be a limited run for now or something

Crying about pocket clips is a weird complaint. If you need a serious multi-tool, use one. If you need a pocket clip because you're out and about working, then okay. I don't think I've ever struggled to get a pocket knife out of my pocket without one though. On the contrary, sometimes it takes longer to remove a clipped-on knife than to just pull it out of my pocket. Clips are most useful when you're going to be working and moving around a lot and don't want the thing to accidentally fall out of your pocket. There are times when I don't care to have the knife showing, or maybe need to wear a suit and it's nice to have a slim, smooth SAK or other knife in my pocket instead of a jagged multi-tool or something showing clipped to my pocket or belt. I wonder how much this guy gets paid, or how often he gets free stuff, in order to advertise off-brand junk.

Both sound good, probably would go with the hiest .
