If the Prince Customs Protean isn't on your radar, IT SHOULD BE!

The Prince Customs Protean #8 is bringing the heat! My thoughts on an up and comer who's definitely going to make waves with this and future models!
The evolution from the Holt Specter to the Renegade and why we need Holt Bladeworks as a community
มุมมอง 135หลายเดือนก่อน
The Holt Bladeworks continues to cement themselves as a major contender in making some of the very best EDC tools today. I take a look at their first model (the Specter) to their latest offering (the Renegade) and do a quick breakdown of the evolution and improvements over the years.

    Absolutely gorgeous with the gold. How did you get it direct from CRK in less than a year? Back in 2008 I special ordered a large Regular Sebenza (as it was being discontinued) with gold hardware, double thumb lugs, and polished blade. Would love to have that one back! Managed to snag a plain large Insingo 31 Magnacut and I’m stoked as I’ve been waiting for years. Not like I had been regularly checking dealers or getting on a notification list like I should have. I just happened to look at the right place at the right time. If I decide to order one again it will be like yours but with polished blade and glass blasted scales.

They don’t require any down payment and once your order comes up, they’ll reach out to you to see if you still want it and if you do at that point, you can pay. If not, then there’s no penalty fee or anything like that.

  • @Sleepy_spartan717
    @Sleepy_spartan717 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I do have to say though, I’ve heard so many people say that a large Rosie with a 3.25-3.5” blade would be killer. Over the last year, not needing a blade like my SmF or even the xm18, a 3.25” blade has been my go to. So a slightly larger than original Rosie would probably be one of the best sellers for them. The 3” is a goat already. I’m curious if they will even bother with a second design like Koenig and Grimsmo. Dial in the first design, then do the same for a second. They already have the flagship.

    • @these7seas
      @these7seas หลายเดือนก่อน

      Agree. They prob don’t have to come out with anything else and will still kill it in the knife market but seeing how Oz is really in tune with the knife community, I’m sure they’ll come out with a Large at some point.

  • @Sleepy_spartan717
    @Sleepy_spartan717 หลายเดือนก่อน

    CRK, Hinderer and strider aren’t even close to the level of these. That’s why the xm is half the price. It’s literally half as nice. Nowhere near the level of fit and finish as the oz Rosie, holts, lamia, etc.

A Chavez or any of the thousands of ti high end frame locks that could be had for 500-800. A Kirby lambert.

      Appreciate your opinions and I can see your point but I also know that I don’t know the work and expense it takes to manufacture a knife in America so for me, buying this knife wasn’t so much of trying to find the most affordable knife but supporting a knife company I believe in. In person though, using this knife, I’ve come to experience how well built it is, the thoughtful design choices, and continues to excel in everything a knife should excel in (cutting performance, comfort in hand, carriability, solid lockup). Yes, for sure I can get alll this in a Spyderco for $100 but I’m at a point in my knife journey where I appreciate these higher end stuff. Kinda like when you go from a Toyota Prius to a Lamborghini. Both do the same thing essentially but the person who buys the Lambo most likely has a little more appreciation for the mechanics and details of a fine driving machine.

    I have multiple Hinderers, and have not encountered lock stick. What will cause lock stick is getting oil on the lock face. It should be cleaned off with rubbing alcohol and using graphite from a pencil will usually help prevent it until the lock face can wear in. It may take a couple of applications until the problem is resolved.
