- Can you buy a really high quality UK legal EDC knife for less than £40? Well up until now I would have said probably not... Enter the Atlas. A quality slipjoint with a sub 3" blade. It has all the features of knives that cost twice the price and quality materials. Do not miss out on this limited run!!

I am from Germany and have been looking for §42a konform knives, which is pretty similar to UK-legal. By your videos about Twisted Assisted and especially this one about the Atals I found Twisted Assisted. I just ordered an Atlas with PVD blade and copper scales, I love how this ages, which I have been looking for for 2-3 month now.
Can't believe that Twisted Assisted isn't known more over here!
Corr the timing of your video and the release of the Atlas couldn’t be better.
I’ve been looking for a new EDC knife; black pocket clip, slip joint - not a detent, micarta scales and one handed opening and of course UK legal.
Just ordered one! £45 is a bonkers good bargain! Thanks for this buddy. Much appreciated
Appreciated. Twisted Assisted are on a roll.....
Bacon roll with HP sauce?🤤
Love Twisted Assisted
Be nice to see that close-up 👍👍
Looks like a uk legal version of a ZT0450 nice blade without the ZT price although I love my ZT0909 it’s an edc tank 💪 great review 👌back to 🇦🇺 civilisation next week away from petty 🏴 law all the best 🤠
Already ordered blackout G10. Thanks for the review.
Good choice!
@thatgearguy ref Blackbelt barrister, what is every day carry uk legal knife ? (youtube).
Stonewash looks nice.
G10 satin on route 👍❤️
Ide like to see an American version with a locking blade. It has nice lines.
Ordered!! Thank you for your review
Hope you like it!
Arrived this week - superb quality. Makes my other knives seem cheap
Reminds me of a ZT Sinkevich 460.
Very nice, just ordered one. Cheers
Hope you enjoy it!
It's nice but a sheepsfoot might be more handy.
ordered one 👍
Very nice, 😎👍👍
The Atlas has gone up now to full price. Not too sure if it is worth it vs the Junzi. What do you think if you could only have the one?
Hmm tough call. Probably Junzi..
@@thatgearguy mmm, that is the way I am leaning. Thanks for your response. :)
Are there any disadvantages of this compared to the Junzai?
Other than the blade and handle shape I can't really tell what the differences are and why there's a difference in price
Also ngl, I'm not a big fan of the logo stamped on the blade. It might be hard to explain to a police officer how a skull and gasmask differs from "zombie" branding
I could see no disadvantage. Both use similar materials and build quality. Grab a bargain. You can always polish the logo off.
What do you recommend this or the mini dundee, im between the two 🤔
I would go Dundee!
Apart from being cool and maybe useful for self defence isn't a non locking mutlitool a better choice most of the time
It depends I guess. Personally I dont want the weight of a multitool in my pocket all day. I keep one in my car and a small knife in my pocket. Best of both worlds.
Can't UK carry for self defense. Also a multitool is much heavier in the pocket.
*Just as Sikhs can carry a blade for religious reasons, shouldn't Christians reclaim their right to carry a sword for religious reasons? As Britain is a Christian nation and does it not state in the Bible - Luke 22:36 that Jesus said "Sell your cloak and buy a sword."? If taken to court, could one swear on the Bible and use said Bible as evidence to support their right of claim? Shouldn't one also buy a cloak, then sell it to buy a sword therefore following Jesus's words to the letter?* 😀
Well you try it and if it works I will sell my cloak as well.
@@thatgearguy Someone has to try it 😀
Wow, brits are truly screwed if any serious threat happens on the street or in their house. Id carry bear sparay there, but I bet its illegal. (Ive been there)
Let me guess, you're from USA where everyone carries weapons? Nice. Definitely a better setup you have over there. Of course your murder rate per capita is 6x higher than the UK, but it's safer, right..?
@MPD90 "everyone carries weapons". Nope. But we have the legal right.
@@GUITARTIME2024 And 6x the murder rate as a result. What an example for us poor Brits.
@MPD90 much of that murder rate is gang related (killing each other). For example, my American city of 500k has about 30-40 homicides a year. 90 percent are blacks killing blacks. And what you DONT understand is how many crimes are prevented by firearms in America. I'm not a gun guy, but last I heard, British people can't legally carry pepper spray, and if someone breaks in their house, there's big legal trouble if the scumbag criminal gets killed. You people have zero rights. Don't get me started on police coming to your door about "anti trans" posts. The UK is done. Farage for PM, lefty !!!
Do you mind asking how much you work with the knife before making a review?
All I can see is that it is a brand new knife , so...
Depends on the knife and its intended purpose. In this case about a week of use as it was intended. For the Parry fixed blade about a month of heavy work. Nobody is going to be batoning a slip joint through firewood. They will do light daily tasks like opening boxes, cutting tape ect. That doesnt leave many use marks.
@thatgearguy what can you tell us please about the blade grind thickness behind the edge and what sharpening angle arrived from the factory ?
@@K.M925 Why would he waste his time telling you anything after your rude first question.
My bad ..
I'm sure he spent hours and hours testing on different materials / different sharpening angles.. made lots of comparisons with other products on that price range .
@@K.M925 You seem to be under the impression you're entitled to something. Kindly jog on.
Nice, but I just don't trust non-lockers. However unlikely with careful use, they absolutely can fold on your fingers. I'll stick with my little Delica - it's safer.
Yeah, I prefer a locking blade but the police here have wisely made the ONLY safety feature that has ever been made to penknives illegal! Bless them😂
I don’t know where you live but in the UK we have very strict knife laws which severely limits what you can carry. The blade has to be 3 inches or less, folding & non-locking. Hence why this video has ‘UK EDC’ in the title. The Delica you mention can’t be carried in public for EDC.
You can carry lockers with a "good reason"......work and to and from work is my good reason.....I've never had a problem
@@johnporterfield7523 the video is referring to EDC. I don’t class things I need for work as an EDC. Sure you can carry them to and from work or for other ‘good reasons’ but you couldn’t carry it in your pocket on your lunch break and head into town with it.
@@DeepPortalViewer no....I have a load of uk legal knives too and to be honest I rarely take any into town unless it's tiny.......if you got caught in a pub with a junzi for arguments sake, you'd still be in the shit......I'm 57 so I don't look like a yob which is half the battle.....I carry a big lock knife most days as the original guy was talking about them folding on you which is correct....
Realistically you cannot carry anything in the uk, unless its for work. They will find a way to get you
Not true. The law is incredibly clear.
