The fact that the Gerber is skelotonized makes the knife seem less durable. Also some people had the tip break off of their Gerber knives.

MR BALLEN!!!

The first knife that I bought for myself was the launch 11, and I have absolutely loved it. I'm looking to get a new knife soon though, and I'm having trouble deciding between the launch 8, which I absolutely love, or the Bel Air which comes with a Magnacut blade.

Flip sharp you get better

Talk about over thinking, he's making my ears bleed, I can't remember him mentioning a full tang is really important.

Buck is to brittle breaks tip easily

My grandfather had two of the predecessor to this for some 40 years. One in the kitchen and one in the work shop. When he moved to a smaller home and only needed one a fight broke out over the spare one!

🎉😮

My favorite benchmade knife is my Cold steel recon 1 😂

ohh🎉

wow❤

cool i have one

Cold Steel, my favorite knife brand!

meet the spy

I have balisong

wearing a black t-shirt while presenting balck blades it's not the best thing to do

Always amusing to see that many other non-American brands are superbly ignored. Perhaps they refuse to pay bribes?

no cleaver?

Its a shame the staff ain't more helpful at blade hq every time I have emailed needing help they just don't really seam interested in helping me so they loose customer's poorly run company

I was given 3 strange knives and cant find anything any where like them how should I go about looking them up?

“An impressive 650 lumens” Say what? An impressive 650 lumens? Nah, we all know that’s not impressive. Especially for its size, I could list countless lights of the same size or even ones that are considerably smaller that blow that out of the water. That’s just a rediculous statement. “And is tough enough to endure drops and impact”. My guy, it’s 2024. Every single light that a person would conceivably consider as a tactical or EDC light on the market today can “endure drops and impact”. “The reversible clip” Oh well, I didn’t know it had a reversible clip. 90% of lights under consideration for this category will have this “dynamic” feature. I guess as a knife collector and flashlight collector I’ve grown numb to the obligatory hyperbole thrown at me for the most pedestrian and expected features. “This one is a fantastic tactical option because it has an advanced battery cap on the end which retains the battery within the body of the light itself thus preventing it from falling out in the most rough and tumble tactical situations ensuring you will always have a battery inside your light when you need it most.” You may be enticing casuals or newbs who are still learning but those of us who include Blade HQ in our daily knife searches feel the sales pitch in your vibe and it’s not endearing. I still love you blade HQ, I just pay less and less attention to you when you say things that aren’t things about things I wanna know things about.

The one guy said it’s decent blade steel it’s just s30v

I like assisted usually depending on the quality and price . Full auto great quality is usually more expensive. I.e Piranha.

My dad got bit by a slip joint and lost part of his finger

That knife from buds is a terrible dive knife. It damn near rusts if it’s even near the ocean. It’s issued because students have to clean and sharpen it basically every night.

Iv never in my whole life heard someone call a butterfly knife that

Bro's different and calls them Balisongs. Still has butterflyknife in his tags

I still have the titanium Benchmade butterflies I got back in 1998, one drop point, one tanto. Got em right here.

Too expensive. Got a counterfeit OTF knockoff of some fancy brand 2 years ago for $45, still going strong as my EDC. Can replace every part in it, can swap blades, change the scales. Paying these premium prices is crazy.

I want the black coated m4 endura and the smock so bad. 🔥

KEEP THE PRICES DOWN KERSHAW. WE WORKING MEN ARE STILL WITH YOU!!! 👊

KERSHAW DO A TOP LINER LOCK WITH FRONT FLIPPER, FLIPPER, AND STUDS!!!

Made in Michigan is what is finally convincing me to buy White River. Gotta support the amazing people in my own state. I'm planning on making the Urus 45 my main outdoors knife. I'm not a hardcore woodsman so it should last multiple lifetimes. The new slipjoint looks like a contender as a new gentlemen folder for me as well. Love White River as a company, can't wait to own some of their stuff for myself.

I would rather have a cutlass.

I carry a Gerber Mark ii

Did YOU! have PERMISSION!, to use "MR. MAC BALLENS", name, for THIS! video? You owe me 100k thousand dollars!

I want to do some 22 inch rims like this. I'm thinking a few new cans and a box of baking soda. Idk about the small clips for the rims. Anybody think jumper cables would work?

Parcel hook great for putting bike chain back on.

Hmm, seems like Mr Allen would suggest I preform verious of michevious acts towards the youtube like button, if I find storys of the strange, dark and mysterious quality pleasing.

Spyderco one is a way to go. Remember to at least check table with level, make it even, mark on table place where it is even or do it every time.

Still waiting for the Invictus Auto

Mr Ballen reference

love me some cold steel. Been carrying one of these for 20years now. love the master hunter as well, and for kicks one of their tantos. Awesome blades.

I love karambit 😊

Be careful using that Reate Exo-U. The blade pops out super easy with very little pressure while cutting. I believe it's due to the butterfly clip that holds it in place. Has anyone here ever experienced this issue? It happened to me twice yesterday while using it.

Question is how much are the knives?

I like both of those, but that Benchmade goes on my list. I don't think the handle on that Kershaw looks very comfortable for my tiny hands.

Wasp injector knife laughing at the corner

I noticed on your website, that the blade thickness of the Bel Air is 0.89". It must be a small axe.

The first and last ones are both hatchets not axes lol bro
