  • @aaronb.4830
    @aaronb.4830 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have 9 TwoSuns, The TS243 is my favorite so far. The carbon fiber scales are mesmerizing and they are so comfortable. It has titanium liners/back spacer, milled titanium pocket clip and 14C28N tall flat grind with excellent geometry. Front fliper and regular flipper tab make it enjoyable to fidget with. Definitely recommend. WMK gets them occasionally and with 10% off it came to $78. Definitely the best value knife in my +50 knife collection.

  • @TheGothicHangman

    Stigmas!!! TwoSun & Kubey are making some great knives it shouldn’t matter that they’re Chinese. Still looking to acquire a TS166 it’s design is glorious, very Art Deco. Kubey has great customer service and presence on Instagram, I mentioned in a comment about wanting a particular custom color knife. When I woke up the next morning they had written a PM saying they still had one available!!! My other favorite TwoSun has a copper inlay, thing is it’s unfortunately a slip joint. Nice overview and reviews, keep’ em rolling!

    I have acquired nearly all of the two sun knives. eBay is the best place to get them. I also have tons of spydercos, WE knives, Kizer, Medford’s, Citadel...essentially my knife rotation is months long before I get back to the same knife. Two Sun knives are right up there with all the others.

  • @bobb.9917
    @bobb.9917 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have a number of TwoSun knives...and my experience is that they just get better and better. I just received a TS137 Front-Flippin’ cleaver. The design, milling and action is just incredible... only downside I found was a relatively sharp outside edge on the CF front scale ... which I quickly took down with some wet/dry sandpaper. It’s a LOT of knife for $62.99. (CF, Ti, & D2)...IT’S GORGEOUS! I have another one coming from DHGate...can’t wait!

  • @paulmills426
    @paulmills426 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I bought a TwoSun about 1.5 to 2 years ago I'm not sure the model number but it's a tepe design. It's all Mico milled titanium with a bowie style blade in s110v and after shipping and everything it was only $120 and I swear the action is smoother than my Shirogorov f3. I don't see how TwoSun could be making these knives to the quality they do for what they sell them for. Alot of people will never know just how good TwoSun knives are because they refuse to buy a knife made in China. I try to buy mostly USA made stuff but I figured I would try one when I saw s110v for such a low price.

  • @tidge879

    @matthewadler1329 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great topic. I do love the twosun knives I own, but I've been reluctant to take the plunge with one of their more premium knives with higher end steels because of the rumors that travel through the forums about their s90v and such not performing like other s90v from bigger brands. I really like how they pump out tons of designs, and work with talented designers. I do plan to get an m390 blade from them, but I have become more convinced based on the ones I've bought. Thanks for the vid! Nice job

There are 5 different companies making some version of that knife and TwoSun makes an upgrade to that version with titanium scales. Kubey (titanium scales D-2 blade), Eafengrow (G-10, D-2) and a few others with various materials and blade shapes have a model 90% similar to that knife but the TS21.. that's my grail.
