For us southpaws, if you want a “true” left handed button lock, get the CJRB Pyrite daily driver, from the perfect Pyrite collection. Very nice, and not much more expensive than the regular Pyrite.
I know it's not highly regarded in the knife collecting world, but for pure button action, not taking anything else into account, I really like the Elementum button lock (the one that has the button as it's only means of open / close for the blade). Since it only has one action, that action is perfectly tuned in my opinion. And since it's a locking blade, it never swings back out if it swings closed too hard.
Still my favorite button lock action. BL/axis locks are my favorite style, and even though the OG Elementum BL was my 1st BL, it's still my favorite. Cormorant would be next.
Left out the best button lock I own: WE Exciton. I own dozens of button locks, but the Exciton is the best. Protech Mordax and Malibu are really good too.
Dude, thank you so much for including the Clairvoyant in this roundup! I agree, the burlap and brass version is my favorite of the two as well. Always an honor to be in one of your videos, hope to see you again sometime soon! 😁
I was looking at that first sencut and the elementum. Went to see my friend's son that works at the local shop and he didn't discourage me from either, but talked up the pyrite and was pointing me in that direction. I did want to try a flipper, but am glad I took his advice
love your videos been watching for a few months now! benn collecting for that long too! i have about 35 blades now cant wait for my sencut buying spree!!!! lol great video!
The Civivi Altus is conspicuously absent from the $75-100 group. It is strong competition to the Sentinel Strike in this price range and one of my favorite button locks.
@@danielcox5849 It's a great-looking knife. I really appreciate WE releasing their models for budget options. The Vision FG is unbelievable, feels like a $150 knife.
I am showing my wife this video so she knows who to blame. A lot of great knives on this list ... a lot of knives I'd like to pick up. I love my Vosteed Thunderbird (Orange Topo) but I have already beat it up as my daily carry. Great video.
The Cogent with a Sencut clip look fantastic. The clip has a hole and slot mimicking the pattern in the handle and it lines up the the handle pattern as well.
Trying to decide between the Sentinel Strike and Serene. Cogent is also in the mix. Trying to figure out which of these three has the best feeling action. Hearing conflicting things about which of them feels best. And if the Ziffius/Exiton are a step up in terms of action, how much of a step are we talking? In what way do they feel different? In case it helps others, I have a G10 Cormorant and button lock Kitefin, and both have very different feels to the action. Cormorant feels more loose and springy because of the vibrations in the handle on closure (not talking blade play; there is none), and haptic feedback from the button which has zero stick. Action is always the same no matter how hard you deploy it. Kitefin is more rigid: blade slams into the lock on open, but the harder you flip it, the more button stick you get on close, which feels fantastic. Might disappear with use, but I've for sure flipped it a few thousand times at this point. There's no button stick on open if you choose not to use the flipper. Titanium handle has zero vibration. I'm not so impressed by the flipper tab though. Has to be lightswitched; pushing down frequently fails because the flipper's angle of action fails to correctly direct the energy when you break the detent in this way, even though the pivot and track are well lubricated and free of discernable friction. Both superb EDC knives obviously. Cormorant has best blade geometry - feels like I'm cutting thick cardboard with a laser beam - and equally fun fidget toys, just in very different ways.
They need to come out with a Vosteed racoon in a more premium steel. M390 , 20cv , s-35vn something cause I love my 14c28n racoon I would like it even more in another blade steel
I daily carry the Civivi Conspirator...i love the shape...hoping to pick up a Protech Mordax when they become available again! Huge button lock/flipper seeker and Love the List!
i want to get the vosteed thunderbird. i found it for 116 on white mountain knives with a 154CM blade and two on ebay for 140 with an Elmax blade? do you think Elmax blade steel is worth $25 more than the 154CM model?
Serene appears to be the best bang for buck button lock out there. I don’t need one but def curious. The Kizer Original xl in Micarta is one of my favorites.
For me the two button locks that just knock me out are the CJRB Pyrites and the Remette WD107s. I've purchased probably 10 or 12 of the Pyrites, Including all three sizes. I've been giving them away for birthday and Christmas presents to all my friends. Currently, the WD107s only come in three different versions and one is out of my price range. Personally, I'd rather purchase three knives under $100, than one knife in the $200 range. But on most days, you are likely to find one of my two WD107s in the horizontal sheath on my belt. My honorable mentions are any of the Civivi button locks, especially their beautiful Damascus steel versions, which can generally be purchased for right around $100.
I absolutely love the CJRB Pyrite, I own the G10 basic model, I have also owned the stainless steel model and would recommend it to anyone. Great video Wayne thanks 👍😊
Protech Mordax is my favourite out of the six buttons I own. Just found a second one for a great price after putting the feelers out on a few knife forums. I will buy a third if I can, lifetime supply. Its my number one carried blade out of 130 or so units (ZT, We,, kershaw, CKF, Kizer, Maxace, Ruike, Rike, Benchmade etc). My next fave button is the Civivi Consiprator. I only wish the tip was thicker (broken too many thin tips)
The QSP Grebe that was just dropped has some awesome options and looks like it’s going be a real banger. Button lock thumb stud flipper! Budget versions with micarta and 14c28n, clip point or tanto and premium versions with s35vn and some unique carbon fiber or raffir resin. Check it out!!
I sent my grebe back. The action was good and it looks great, but it's really thick and unrefined. They really need to inset the liners and thin out the scales or maybe add some contouring. It's just to thick and awkward. Certainty didn't feel like a $160 knife.
I love the look of the Kizer Original but man the action sucked on mine. You have to push the button in way too far to get it to fall shut smoothly and that makes it very uncomfortable+inconsistent. I've also got the button lock sheepdog and its action is pretty meh as well; the button is natural but the action isn't very smooth and there is a weird bump near the end of the closing action. Vosteeds tend to fail the spine wack test so test that if you buy one. I got a Sencut today and the action is perfect. Looking forward to getting a cjrb soon to see how that one goes.

Man, the Brat really has my attention. I’m not a fan of thumb studs, more into spydie holes, but I do love a good flipper. Seems like a distant relation to the Protec Malibu if I had to quantify it.
I just think the CJRB EKKO is really slept on... you can do as much with the EKKO if not more then... also has more deployment methods, they should do the Pyrite versions for the EKKO as well from budget to premium it's definitely good business to capitalize on pretty much the same as Pyrite just slightly different blade shape IMO I like the EKKo blade shape over Pyrite blade shape however I do like both. EKko IMO is more ergonomic than the Pyrite with the sheepsfoot style blade Civivi TI clips fit them as well. Kinda getting Pyrite fatigue along with button locks lol...
Imagine if St. Nick's knives did a dealer exclusive of the smock. I already have a smock but if they did a black and red version in 4v I'd definitely have 2 of them.
The Pyrite, serene, Mad Tanto, Sentinel strike, Conspirator, Qubit, Original XL are at the top of my list. Premium ones would be the Ziffius, Malibu, and Smock. I wanna get that integral Kizer tho.
Very nice list and happy that I have a few of these. I’m still completely surprised/confused why Vosteed hasn’t pumped out more Thunderbirds. There’s a reason you can barely find one on the secondary market. I’ve been searching for about 8 months now.
As good as some of the Kizers are, I'm just not a fan of their design aesthetic overall. Really good video. The Ziffius or Exciton should make the list. The Civivi Qubit is also a fantastic one.
Haven’t watched it yet but from my experience protech malibu was the best button lock I’ve ever had. Atleast when it comes to Detent, action, fit & finish, and overall build quality. Also heard WE makes great more premium button locks and I believe that because of the Civivi button locks I’ve had. For budget range the CJRB Pyrite & Pyrite Alt are crazy good! Compared to my Civivi button locks they blow them out of the water when it comes to Detent, Action, and how smooth the button is. Had button stick issues with Civivi Qubit and Altus. Love the Qubit though! The Altus not so much. I will say the build quality and fit & finish was better on my Civivi Qubit compared to pyrite. But not by much and it’s also like $15-$20 more for qubit. Got sentinel strike on the way and from what I’ve heard it’s the best Civivi Button Lock yet so I’m excited to try it out! Still so far nothing in the budget range beats the action and detent on CJRB Pyrite and Pyrite Alt! Insanely snappy and smooth! But that doesn’t mean it’s a better overall knife. Keep that in mind! Depends on what you’re looking for in a knife. 🙏👍👊😎
How did the Kizer Cormorant not land on this list? Any version of that knife is AMAZING! My personal favorites are the frag titanium with 20cv steel coming in at $179 and the Nebula fat carbon with Elmax steel coming in at $210.
I very much want to get the fat carbon hic-up. I found a copper scale hic-up on Amazon and had to get it. It is quite a bit heavier in the hand but IMO it's a good thing. It's basically a black out knife and I'm not big into black blades but I seem to reach for it over my other 2 hic-ups. I think it was around $100. Usually I am in the $50-$100 price range but have been slowly creeping up. I would love to get my hands on the Ketuo, but then I would have to control myself and save up for a while. And I am a very impulsive person.😅
Yeah, the Mordax and Malibu have perfect detents. I was lucky to pick up a Mordax years ago on Drop. Malibu, I had to wait to get it elsewhere, haha. I enjoy the Serene but the detent is a bit weak but I can look past that because of the price. Cogent is well worth the money. It has a lovely "snap" when opening. A knife you didn't have listed, the Orion Knives Solaris. Yeah, the blade to handle ratio might put some off. One I'd like to see turn into a button lock... CJRB Feldspar, an all purpose blade shape with a comfortable handle. Thanks for vid. Take care!
White Mountain Knives has an exclusive series of Feldspar button locks. They're not in stock at the moment but I think they might still be making them. I have the black micarta one and IMO it's pretty great.
My kancept tac edc is one of my favorite button locks. The altus is also a great button lock with the perfect amount of recession on the button lock to keep you from releasing it while using it.
I just bought a Brand New mordax for about $100 over MSRP off eBay magnacut just like yours I didn't mind paying over I have a drop all black mordax but it's a safe queen. A quick question please on my magnacut Mordax I have the mx101 same color but mine doesn't have the ferrum forge logo non of the blue mordax magnacut doesn't have the logo but should I be worried ? Any help would be appreciated
I won't buy a Chinese-made knife. It's small thing, but I'll pay a premium to avoid Chinese-made. I can't avoid that country of origin for every product, but I try.
For us southpaws, if you want a “true” left handed button lock, get the CJRB Pyrite daily driver, from the perfect Pyrite collection. Very nice, and not much more expensive than the regular Pyrite.

I agree 👍
My thoughts exactly. I wish their would be more like that. I was rather disappointed as the Elementum 2 was a flipper.
I bought the button lock Elementum in shreaded CF and Damascus steel. It is one of my favs too.
Left out the best button lock I own: WE Exciton. I own dozens of button locks, but the Exciton is the best. Protech Mordax and Malibu are really good too.
Nice line up. All very good. I probably would just add the regular g10 Pyrite to the sub-50 list. Fantastic and can be had for around 40-45
Good call!

I'd rather have the Altus. He conspicuously omitted that the Sentinel Strike is in D2!

Hiccup is my latest purchase due to just discovering front flippers! I can’t believe what I was missing!
Looove the hiccup! 🙌🏼
I have that kizer assassin xl,and he is correct it's a great knife,to many sleep on
What do you prefer the pyrite xl and the assassin xl? I’m trying to figure which one I. Want next.
Assassin XL over the Pyrite XL, but the Pyrite over the Assassin.
Thank you sir!
I don’t have any premium button locks but my 2 favorite under $100 are the Civivi Qubit and Sentinel Strike.
Love this series!
Excellent. Love these knives
Sentinel strike or the Civivi Vision FG? Which one do you choose?
If you want an extra tactical boost then go Sentinel Strike. If you want a more pure EDC blade, go Vision FG.
i want to get the vosteed thunderbird. i found it for 116 on white mountain knives with a 154CM blade and two on ebay for 140 with an Elmax blade?
do you think Elmax blade steel is worth $25 more than the 154CM model?
I always enjoy your vids on button locks. I get a kick out of how you say "button laahhk" :)
😁
Serene appears to be the best bang for buck button lock out there. I don’t need one but def curious. The Kizer Original xl in Micarta is one of my favorites.
Smock would be a home run if the finger choil was on the scales. I get caught up on that finger choil non-stop.
Glad you put the hic-cup in I personally think it's underated,but I do think you missed one kizer and that is the cormorant
You missed the WE Ziffius/Exciton. The best button locks I have ever tinkered with

My next fave button is the Civivi Consiprator. I only wish the tip was thicker (broken too many thin tips)
Good choice! 👊🏼
imo this list is for collectors, not users. You put 2 versions of the pyrite in here, just for scales and a coating?
I'm interested to see how the button lock Brazen turns out. It could end up being a contender in that 50 - 75 range.
I own the Civivi Cogent In micarta and would have loved to see it on the list as well
I had the Cogent on there and was really referring to the model overall. It’s great!
My favs so far. Ultra budget Sencut Seche. step up to Cogent Step up to Brat awesome. Step up to Malibu. Those are my favs right now.
If you like button lock action try the CJRB riff. It's a beast 💪
Those civivi clips fit on cjrbs also and many other knives as well
The QSP Grebe that was just dropped has some awesome options and looks like it’s going be a real banger. Button lock thumb stud flipper! Budget versions with micarta and 14c28n, clip point or tanto and premium versions with s35vn and some unique carbon fiber or raffir resin. Check it out!!
I sent my grebe back. The action was good and it looks great, but it's really thick and unrefined. They really need to inset the liners and thin out the scales or maybe add some contouring. It's just to thick and awkward. Certainty didn't feel like a $160 knife.
@@BeagsBlades that’s a bummer to hear! But much appreciate the info. Definitely something to consider
I love the look of the Kizer Original but man the action sucked on mine. You have to push the button in way too far to get it to fall shut smoothly and that makes it very uncomfortable+inconsistent. I've also got the button lock sheepdog and its action is pretty meh as well; the button is natural but the action isn't very smooth and there is a weird bump near the end of the closing action.

Would button lock autos be considered button locks?
Technically, they are considered button locks, because the button is still the locking mechanism, even though it’s automatic.
When it comes to button locks im always torn between the civivi conspirator and cogent
I really like the look of the sentinel strike but I would’ve liked to see 14c28n or 154cm
Kizer Cormorant should have been in here at a couple of price levels
Man, the Brat really has my attention. I’m not a fan of thumb studs, more into spydie holes, but I do love a good flipper. Seems like a distant relation to the Protec Malibu if I had to quantify it.
I just think the CJRB EKKO is really slept on... you can do as much with the EKKO if not more then... also has more deployment methods, they should do the Pyrite versions for the EKKO as well from budget to premium it's definitely good business to capitalize on pretty much the same as Pyrite just slightly different blade shape IMO I like the EKKo blade shape over Pyrite blade shape however I do like both.
