It's great to see a small business still in operation, that's the kinda store's I like to support to keep them going. We don't have to many military surplus store's around anymore California like we once had. Just in Oakland "BANANZA", Vallejo "VICTORY STORE" and the the military base in Fairfield "Travis base", but you have to be veteran to buy anything out of there store. And you get a discount on anything it's a huge store they sell every thing in the military store even groceries.
I feel lucky here in PA military surplus seems to be a common thing there is another place in the opposite direction but the knife selection is just some cheaper stuff...
There are none around me anymore. And the only place I can drive close to get knives is a store called Bridgeport. It’s a huge store boats and all kinds of stuff they sell and rent. But they really only carry a good amount of benchmade. So I have to do a ton of my knife shopping online. Now Bridgeport is reasonable too. I got the benchmade mini Adams’s in cruwear for like 170. Which is crazy
THANK YOU! I am a knife collector and EDC enthusiast in NYC about 90 minutes away from JT’s. Despite the slight distance, JT’s has become my go to spot for ALL the knives in my collection. I’ve been telling people in the Knife and EDC community about JT’d for a while and I’m thrilled that someone is getting the word out! If you’ve been there then you know that his selection of Premium knife designers products is OFF THE CHARTS! Thanks again
@@jacobcordero8569 I know the Bladesman, on Merrick Road in Long Island, right? I was there twice, last time was last March when I was on LI to go to 5.11 tactical. Nice place, lots O blades lol
@@jacobcordero8569 Lol, have one as well, great knife. I got the one with the grey LW FRN from JT’s. My dad actually got me a Shaman this Christmas which blew me away. I got him his first nice ZT last year so it was his turn, lol. My wife went all out and honestly surprised me. First she got me a Large Senbenza 31 Plain (also from JT’s). I’ve wanted a plain Jane Sebenza for years. She also pre ordered me a Vero Engineering Axon Gen 2 with shredded CF scales. Love Vero’s work, really excited
How the hell did I not know about this shop. I'm less than 25 minutes from there. Up 209.deeper into NY. I'm 100% taking a trip there this week. OTF's here I come.
I bet you feel the awesomeness as soon as you walk in. From the the surplus stores I've been to I've never seen one quite like this. Really 1 of a kind.
This place has been around a while !! At the very least 20 years ago , I Used to stop in after the beer distributor across the street when going camping in the area as a teenager , The old man that ran it at the time did not like us city boys at all !! ( don't blame him lol ) . Now I have a place a few towns over and I forgot all about this gem of a shop ! Il be stopping by soon enough !
I love little shops like that they are so humble and easy to talk to they make for the best customer service relations becuas they know treating customers with respect they have a customer for life I find alot of the alternate shops are very like that I'm a customer for these shops for life
I’m so glad shops like this still exist. I remember when there were places like this my male relatives would take me to as a child. I never ceased to be amazed at all of the different gadgets and tools I didn’t yet understand. Big box stores and online shopping have all but eliminated this ESSENTIAL part of our culture. Places like this bring us together in a world where we are too often pulled apart. Keep up the great work and best of luck to JT’s!!! If I’m ever in Jersey I’ll stop in and buy something!!!
Cool to see that place on there I've been there a few times . They introduced me to some cool knife styles I wasnt aware of. When I saw the thumb nail I was thinking it looked familiar. Nice old school place
Its nice to see a local shop still in business. My hats off to the owners! I do Miss the old days when you could walk into one & find treasures like eagle industries & LBT kit, ACH Helmets, modular Sleep systems, TCOP Tents, ect - stacked high on shelves. All Real USA Made Surplus from top quality company's that actually had Gov't contracts. We had it made back then.
Used to have some stores around here that had similar type of merchandise, not as good a selection as shown here but go to for mil surp items. All gone now,sadly. If I ever make it up thst way it will be a must stop in to handle some knives & buy at least one. Thanks for the tour.
great video. I absolutely love seeing videos or photos of knife stores or booths at shows. I spend way to much time looking at the photos to see if there is anything rare.
This is a great little store. I always found something new whenever I visited. I have been there several times over the years (and bought a few knives and other gear). I live about 45 mins. away, but used to have a friend nearby. Very convenient to Interstate 84 and on Rte. 6!....Thanks to this video, I'll be returning before too long!
That was an awesome tour. Thank you for that. Got an Army & Navy here in the Lehigh Valley. They used to have the whole store packed with military stuff from the '60s and up. And a great selection of knives. Now the old military section has been reduced to a 10" x 5' area so they can sell trendy clothes and snowboards. And the knives are mostly gas station shit with some Benchmade but you can't buy any balisongs unless you have military or police ID. Thankfully the gun section is still there. Also Black Rifle Coffee is all I drink. One to two pots a day of Beyond Black or Murdered Out. Great stuff. And I've had my Maxpedition Kodiak Gearslinger for seven years now and it's shown very little wear and tear with daily carry.
I have been going to J t's knife shop long before it was J t's knife shop when his father owned it and it was just an army navy surplus store probably probably for the last 40 years.
What an awesome store! It looks like it’s from another time period. Like it’s back in the 70’s or 80’s. It looks like it belongs in a Rambo movie. It’s an awesome alternative to your Knife Centers, and Blade HQ’s. A really cool mom and pop knife store you don’t expect to see these days with online shopping taking over. It is great to see a store like this still around. Thank you
Great small store with an excellent selection. You guys need to take a trip to Smoky Mountain Knife Works in Sevierville TN. You'll be just like Robin Williams character Vladimir Ivanoff in "Moscow On The Hudson" in the coffee isle of a supermarket on his first shopping trip after defecting to America!
i really love knifes, i got myself a cheap swiss army style knife and although its not a top tier knife or a "good" one i love how they feel on my hand for real
Damn what a fantastic shop⚡👍⚔️🗡️. Here in Richmond VA. We have a shop on Jefferson Davis Highway called Hull street outlet. They carry the same stuff like military items old guns for looks they don't shoot anymore. A few knives. They can order anything u need but in no way are they even close to the selection offered at this shop in NY. Again great video 👍😊
Awesome shop! Spotted a nice Italian swinguard stiletto in that one case with the other autos! Saw some Bradley Kimura and Bear Ops balisongs as well!😍😍😍
Been going there for years, one of the few reasons to go though port. Was there last week picked up a orange mora 2000 $10 cheaper then what it's online for. You should do a local series of shops around, there's like 7 gun shops in Milford and all have some cool stuff.
Yup I feel like I have to leave the state of California to do shopping for the cool stuff, I remember in the 1980s we had a huge amount of small businesses that used to sell cool stuff. Then the 1990s came and all those small businesses started to vanish. The Goverment shut down a lot of Military bases in California. All the business that supplied the military bases went out of business a whole lot of people were out of work. That's when I started to notice a whole lot of people started using "DRUG'S" Every thing went down hill since then. Took 30 year's to make California to what it is today the Dems/liberal's/socialists-communist pretty much destroyed California's businesses. The small business owners that are hand building stuff are barely staying afloat because of the prices they have to charge to cover the cost to stay open, most live where the have there shop to cut the cost of paying for two building's and have the security of thieves taking advantage of what the owner's built of having a shop. The what little small business we have I try to support by shopping at there store. If I have to buy from Amazon I read where the business is at and try to know as much as I can to make shire it's a small American business I'm supporting. This year I tried staying away from foreign countries products it was/is hard to do. I think I did save because I ended up spending less? I'll find out when I add every thing up in January from American product's VS foregin product's.
@@deejay1534 really depends what your into, most are more modern shops and none have more then 10-20 used guns. I like Patriot arms, Theo is a nice guy small shop but a bit of most stuff. Even will let you use his Dillon or Lee presses in the shop. Fair prices to. If I'm the area there all within a few miles so worth to stop in, there's a few on the new York side to.
Funny story. I have actually been their 12 years ago on my way out to Ohio. I picked up my first knife in many many years. That actually started my collecting and EDC carry again. The knife was a little crkt kiss tanto. Lol. Not the greatest blade but it served its purpose.
Just recently went back two weeks ago and got myself my first para 2 and a grip. Takes an hour and a half from Jersey but I love the place. Only real knife place by me
nice clean store lots of good stuff nothing like this in my city.i would love to have a store like this in my town. very hard to find these days must be a joy.
Born and raised in port! Amazing shop owner went in one day before Xmas 2016 to get a knife for my dad! Forgot to take cash out and he let me take it and put the cash in his mailbox the next day!
I have a few Firefighter Challenge Coins and the Spyderco Coin too! There's an AKC F/A in my collection too, but its not my lowest grade auto (or my highest). LoL
Hey man I'm planning in going here my first time tomorrow, do you know by chance if they carry any tops or esee fixed blades? I wanna be able to handle one before I jump the gun
You know a while ago I found out you lived in hemlock and it was jarring because I live in lords valley also I bought my first butterfly knife at that very shop was a bear and son

Thank you Sir for posting this shop.
having a dedicated knife shop is awesome

Wish they had this kinda stuff in Florida.
I might have to make a trip out there. It could be a day trip. I think Jeff got a balisong
Damn didn't think you guys could have double edge otfs or otfs period or any automatic knives
I’d be in there twice a week at least if that was my neighborhood store.
This place is only an hour and a half from me, I'm goin today!
Good call on your Invicta watch. My Prodiver is one of my favorite watches.
Next time do a pocket check! I bet they have the good stuff!
