I can see the excitement on your facial expression! The maxamet pm2 does come sharp and the spine is rounder. The jimping on mine is still aggressive. But mine came with the lanyard tube smaller than it should be. Not understanding how that happened. Maybe they used the one for a different model. Been using maxamet for over a year now. Liking the steel so far. Definitely good for cutting abrasive materials. Any thoughts on it now, after a few months of use?

I really want a Sencillo. It came out just after I bought my Izula II. Yeah I'm a bit salty about that.

Good video. All valid points. This knife geometry is for small food prep, it's not a waddling knife. Lately Esee has been dissapointing with some of their new models, instead of building upon amd improving their legendary legacy. This knife and their Kukri being some of the examples. Cheers!

Tom, good to see your oversized Irish head again! Been a while. That looks like a great little blade. Is it me, or is that kind of similar to the Izula 2 and the 3 modified handle.... Are you really sure you dont want to see more designs from ESEE? I sometimes wonder if they couldn't break a mold or two. Great video. Congrats on the tractor. 👍🏻

I bought a 110 after losing my 112, it's the finger groove version from 2011 420 HC, not designer steel but pretty good edge holding and easy to sharpen. On that note, that is why Buck use 420hc, as some designer steels you need to be an expert to sharpen it! Liked the video, except when you start to go on about toxic chemicals! That's just plain silly! Do you own a fibreglass boat... Made with chemicals! See what I mean, to relate to a knife handle compared to many other things in life is rediculous, Beware if you drop your ebony handle on a hard floor it's a hard brittle wood and while it might feel nice to hold it's way more likely to cracking than the "Toxic" handled version! Good video but let down by the above....!!!!

Thanks for another great video Tom. Sincilo was my last knife of 2023 before my 24 resolution for no new knives. Got mine in MAGNACUT. The choil is the issue with that knife, it will bite you with hard use. Extra large hands, if I get into any form of pressing down on the knife I’m nicked a little. I’m always nicked somewhere so I don’t pay it much mind. I sharpened the spine on mine, where it would scrape bark and throw sparks on a fero rod. It’s my motorcycle knife now. I like MAGNACUT a lot, if they ever make a E3 or E4 in MAGNACUT those are gonna be hard to beat. Still hanging tough on my resolution, 7 1/2 months down. Thanks again for the laughs.

I was considering getting the Sencillo in magnacut but I’m going to hold out for the pacaya in 3V .

IIRC you made a post saying you were not getting any more knives... I have this same problem :)

I’m confused ? What mower deck do you use with your new uzula ll tractor? Love your channel I’m trying hard to hold back … from buying another knife this month… 🤔 maybe I’ll study this a bit.

Let’s talk tractors.

I've sold my 45 year knife collection piece by piece over the last 12 months. I've gotten to a point where I couldn't give a crap about the knife community as all you see is clowns selling old knives for super inflated prices and the same for new knives, the industry has been ruined by ego maniacs. Then you have all the clones on TH-cam doing their little battoning through wood to prove how amazing their knife is and you hardly ever see them use a knife for what it's really intended for. I could go on and on about the cons of the knife community but I don't have a good week to write everything.

Hahaha 😮 hahaha

Webster marble did invent the stacked Leather handle And it is copied by other knife makers!😮

Looks similar to my model 7

I like both I have one with stone washed finish and ranger green extended grips like the top one both are great

The Izula with the hollow grips you made is my favorite! I bought some canvas micarta and I'm hoping to replicate that. Can't go wrong with a stainless Izula!

I love the green but the extended grips really improve the Izula in my opinion. I have large hands and that extra half inch makes a big difference (that's what she said.)

Both. (I have money and excellent taste. 😎)

What happens when them guys put thier knives in the sheath the wrong way?

Excellent video.

Too one with the logo from the bortom one. 🤦🏼‍♂️

The green one. It has a lanyard hole and a smoother shape.

I like the one in the middle. 😅 In all seriousness, I like the one on the bottom best. Both are sweet, though!

Top knife. It appears to have a more ergonomic handle and I prefer the blade shape.

Pretty cool, thank you

What type of wood do you use?

Sir, with your BPS how do you find their durability? I am sure this has been covered somewhere. That said your presentation is so entertaining. I am looking for a bushcraft blade for my 14 YO Son. All help appreciated. VR, Rod

I have mine now 25 + years (little bit shorter because of broken tip) but still serves me well

So how many shirts have you put holes through? Be honest now. 😂✌️♥️

I enjoyed the commentary. Good practical modifications methinks. There are better value options from e.g. Mora and Joker.

CLEAN job! Love it.

I’m a big fan of the Becker Escabar ,,, I think I’m gonna try carrying it this way… I understand that it came about from a fan of the esee and becker small knives.. cutting them in half and using the handle of the esee and blade of the becker .. I just never thought of keeping it in my pants .

Makes sense, thanks. Now, for their nylon sheaths, does it matter as much as leather or same?

I can confirm that the Buck 110 is without a doubt the best knife ever created! I really love it and it made Buck Knives my favorite knife company today! I'm from the south of Argentina and I already have 7 Buck knives! Starting with my first 110 in 2018, the second 110 from the 70s in 2019! I really love them 💪🏻🤠🇺🇸

The music was great and the video too.

Absolutely love your content. When I was first getting into my first knife that I ever got was a buck 110 I I love the buck 110 and used it for everything cutting steak cutting fish everything. I get the fact that Chris Reeve knives can be really overpriced. Watching this video two years later, I have to admit that the blade steel magna cut. Has really shot through the roof of everything. I have a Large Sebenza in Magnacut that I love. But also the buck 110 also comes in Magnacut as well they’re pretty hard to find. Anyways, what I’m saying is that Chris Reeve knives have really improved with the blade steals

*Greetings from Berlin. I still own the 110 (deer horn scales), 112 (ebony scales) and 119. Since almost 40 years!*

Nice way to Insult Nordic countries when your own elects a senile old fool who can't even put his shoes on for a president. Well done.

You snap it behind the brush cover. It took a couple days for mine to get stretched right
