    If Civivi had put this out in 2022, it would be $80. Miguron is killing it.

  • @tac79phoenix

    It seems like the only purpose of that jimping is for some traction when you're using the front flipper.
    That's certainly a hidden gem though!

    Went out and got this akri 2 and the miguron velona and am impressed ! In 2022 . About $50 a piece on wmk . Lockbar knthe akri is kinda hard to get to but the detents on both are killer and consistent . That velona tho just handling the knife and the fit and finish is well done . This is a 2 run homerun by Miguron . They are like in between civivi and We quality

  • @JesseCohen

    Just picked one up as an introduction to both front flippers in general, and Miguron specifically. I have x-large hands, and it took a minute to figure out the best grip for deployment. Once I figured that out, this knife is a dream. Such a nice slender package overall, it’ll be my new gentleman’s carry for the time being. Thanks

    • @JesseCohen
      @JesseCohen 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      And thankfully, roughly one year later, it was even less expensive. $40.15 usd from Amazon with a $3 coupon applied. I ordered the Centurion as well, also on sale sub $40, for the flipper and clip point design. Got the black on black, with blue color way (collar and clip accents). 👍🏻🗡️

  • @robertbrunello

  • @jlpowell51
    @jlpowell51 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ordered one of these after watching the video. While the gimping is probably 100% for the opening process it works for grip too, at least with my thumb. Enough of the pad of my thumb squeezes in to get a grip. Knife feels great, looks even better, beautiful lines. Only complaint is that when you open it there is a faint click that feels like the liner lock is engaging---but it isn't. I have to rotate the blade just a bit further with my thumb for the liner lock to engage. Carry it a few days and it'll become natural to me. Don't know if I'll carry it though, my EDC knives take a beating and it'd be a shame to scratch this one up.

    When it comes to knives, simple is always better. The more simple the design/build, the better the knife is. That's why this knife is BIG thumbs up from me!!!
    PS I Love that crowned spine!!!!

  • @Tha_AntiChrist
    @Tha_AntiChrist 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I’d say it’s true because it’s not possible to make a pocket clip out of any other non ferrous metals so it’s either stainless and slightly magnetic. Or it’s titanium.

  • @BladeLabMiami
    @BladeLabMiami 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just picked one up based on MC's enthusiasm, and I am impressed! It absolutely does look and feel like a much more expensive knife. Some gripes? I'd have loved it if they'd used a thinner stock (it's around .145"), although it is decently thin behind the edge at around .015. If they'd given us a small fuller it would have been Spydie flickable. The pocket clip is too tight.
    But for fifty bucks? C'mon, man! It's a screaming bargain.

    I’m mostly likely going to buy one soon anyways, especially after this video, but now I’m curious. Do you have any experience with DC53 and/or how it stacks against 14c28n?

    I have one of these and I WAS very impressed initially. However, after flipping it open for 1 day (maybe flipping too hard) the lockup became very loose.
