i offered lucas my firstborn child for a madko he unfortunatly declined so i will be purchasing one once they come out edit: im the idiot waving right at the beginning
@@SquidIndustriesco so excited! Thank you for replying! was going to buy my first mako 4.5 tomorro on the drop but now im not sure if i need to wait 😂 ill probably just get both lol
The Squid Gang was such an incredible group of People. Everyone from Lucas to Brandan and all the others were such a delight to be around and talk to! 💜💜 Especially giving [nearly] all of them hugs at the end of the third day, was sooo lovely~! 🥰🥰 I could tell that every single one of them are very invested not only into the company but also the community. Lucas always invests so much into the flipping community, by purchasing all of that area for us to use, hang around at and flip at without being bothered. Yes, he still pays full price for those spots as if they would be exhibitors there trying to sell. And I could see the sincere disappointment in his face when they ran out of all of their knives each day. Squid Industries as a whole truly cares for the entire community and is invested into them not only financially but emotionally too and it shows. 😘 The prototypes they've had this Blade Show were incredible, every single one was a blast to try and get a feel of. Can't wait to see them go production! Can't wait to see what more they will create and can't wait to hopefully see the Squid Gang again in the near future! 😋 And once again, such a GREAT video, Will~! You're able to show off so many different angles and views, your questions are good and you're an incredible host! 💯💪💜💜
19:37 It’s like playing where’s Waldo- Ah yes look hey there I am on the far right- I just keep an eye out for the rainbow hat lol Seeing yourself in bladeshow footage is really funny
lucas and gang are such a bunch of cool people, i recently dmed him about a custom squidtrainer and he agreed and now it's on the way to me. Throughout the whole process he was helpful and patient. I can't say enough good things about him and his company.
I really hope the tsunami trainer is sold online soon, as someone who only flips trainers it would be cool to flip something made to be the same experience as a live blade
Excellent exposé of the coming Squid products. And by far, one of THE most enjoyable Blade Show Videos this year! I love your pro relationship with Lucas and I think both of you do a great deal to advance the art of flipping and promoting good things in the community....... absence of toxicity and whiny attitude that you often see in certain corners of the community. So Positive!
Dammit I want the Madko badddd.... Like more than the 'nami trainer. Also having done trade shows in other industries what you, Lucas, are doing as far as booth space is awesome. A whole hearted thanks for trying to help the "community" put on its best face!
So exited for this I really want to get into flipping and you helped me learn a lot o out what is good and bad can’t wait to see you get to 100k keep up the good work
Awesome video. Would you happen to know if the Hydro is on bushings? I assume it is but I've heard a couple people who went to Blade Show this year saying that it isn't which wouldn't really make sense to me.
@@sillygoofy6875 Last time I talked with Lucas about it, he said they are shooting to start official production of them within the next couple of months
ok i'm still mad about my mako v4 but i know now that if one day i come at a bladeshow or whatever where squid is i'll be treated like a prince. Thanks !
How do you use code will hirsch at checkout because i can’t find the place I’m supposed to place the code because I’m planning to buy a squiddy u and I would like to get 10% off.
No one owns a Madko, as they aren't making them or selling them, and probably won't be for another 6 months to a year, so unfortunately no, we won't be able to do a review any time soon XD
@@thebrandonbakerclone awesome thank you. Im trying to branch and try something a little less messy and more accessible than loctite. Its a bummer to wait 12-24hrs only for the bond to break after it being dropped a few times.
Wish I would’ve tried the hydro…If I’m not mistaken apparent it’s runs just on washers…thoughts? fingers crossed for blade show 2023 drop and Will any update on your monarch ???

You give great hugs, Lucas! 😂😋

When will the madko be out for purchase? @squid industries

I like how squid industries spends extra money on spaces that won’t get them any profit but smiles from the balisong community.
It just shows how Lucas is from the community first before he was ever a business

According to a couple sources I have, the Medusa trainer is the closest replica of it's live blade you can get
Also keep in mind that the kraken trainer is nothing like the live kraken and sucks because of the balance
Yeah, about that. The trainer doesn’t flip the same as the live. I was actually kinda disappointed when I tried the nami trainer at blade.
@@thejoshuaarzu3159 called it
Be warned... I liked the live Nami way better than trainer nami
Not only am I in fucking love with my Kraken, but the Hydro is incredible and I can't wait for them to release it. Squid killed it at Blade this year!
idk why but the swordfish makes me think about it like a remastered, more durable squiddy
Wayyy more durable lol
I agree. Definitely super fun and more satisfying to flip tho
When are they thinking of releasing it
I really love that serrations tell you the safe and bite sides
5:35 That made me laugh so hard. I’m absolutely obsessed with the Madko. All these models look amazing. Loved this video man!
I'm shocked how much I like the Madko lol
@@perforce1 seriously 😂

Oh yeah.....big shout to Brandon for excellent production and videography,......heh heh, Go Brandon.
Thank you so much!
I think one of the best videos at the blade show. PERFECT LIKE THE OTHER VIDS
At 4:05 u can see the lady look at will in disappointment lmao
You guys got my girls in the video. That's so freaking cool!!! See you next year
Glow in the dark handles for the swordfish would be amazing!
the swordfish looks so sick

Thank you so much! We put a lot of time and effort into the booth this year so that means a lot to me. -Lucas
That madko sounds soo so nice, I love it
Oh and that swordfish 😭 squid really does have some interesting balis in the works
I was sitting just out of frame to the left this whole video which is funny to me
But like 11:22 you can see my
Special shitty boi
Being flipped lol
i was skeptical of the swordfish but after seeing the colored models it looks so awesome
*models of color
Finally the squid part
I can’t wait until one day they put a whole separate flipping competition for the Megalodon specifically lmao
10:33 Lucas’ ‘1 more thing’ 🤯 the Steve Jobs of balisong
These look sick! I can tell a bunch of work was put into these knives
Lesss go squid vid!!!
Absolutely Wicked Sic!!! Awesome perspective on a OG company...Well done.😀😀😀😀😀
Thanks John!
Will I love the all your videos such high quality I can see your work in the film industry really bleeds into your content
THIS IS SICK! I was looking forward to squid video. My dream comes true 😌 you and Brandon the man
The Squidmaster is the friendliest guy who literally throws a knife around his fingers
Excited for the Madko. Love my V4 Mako and certainly wouldn’t mind an upgrade
I have a V4 Mako as well!
@@metalcore_slaps think it’s such a nice trainer especially for the price. Love the look
@@FishermanStove facts frfr
Now this... THIS IS THE VIDEO I NEEDED!
0:36 “now obviously we’ve done a lot of squids-“
-Will Hirsch 2022
I love how the first thing that came into will’s mind when he heard the different color combos is PRIDE KNIFE
Love the video😎 I used to work with Andre at benihana San Diego.
Omg Holy shit he told us about that haha!
I’m so hype about the madko I got the mako 4 this year and loved it even more than my kraken p
Just bought my first product from squid industries, excited to be apart of the community!
Oml lucas made a 42069 joke.
The popup about the shirt appeared just as I was thinking "nice shirt"!!!
So exited for this I really want to get into flipping and you helped me learn a lot o out what is good and bad can’t wait to see you get to 100k keep up the good work
i did not get bored at all watching and your the reason i like to flip and y im good at it
Can't wait for the Megalodon drop
Just got my green Mako and now I want a Madko soooooo bad
Awesome video.
Would you happen to know if the Hydro is on bushings? I assume it is but I've heard a couple people who went to Blade Show this year saying that it isn't which wouldn't really make sense to me.
Lucas has directly confirmed with us that it runs on bushings!
@@thebrandonbakerclone When did they say that the swordfish would be released approximately? Also what price range? I may have missed this.
@@sillygoofy6875 Last time I talked with Lucas about it, he said they are shooting to start official production of them within the next couple of months
a video every day, this is revolutionary!!
totally getting all of these
ok i'm still mad about my mako v4 but i know now that if one day i come at a bladeshow or whatever where squid is i'll be treated like a prince. Thanks !
The red blade reminds me of the Benchmade trainers
waiting on the swordfish, hydra trainer and madko.
I'm bout to clear up my bali collection soon to make room.
They should sell madko blades individually for people with makos who want a hardened blades
siiick!! I’m really hyped for the madko, hopefully it isn’t too expensive.
I'm gonna guess $330
Great coverage. Thank you so much for this. I couldn't make it to blade show
I love how Lucas is towering over will 😂
bro i love the titan mako AND the tsunami trainer
The madko got my wallet running and hiding from me.
Now I'm imagining a trainer twice as big as The Megalodon named The Chungus.
I want a Hydro! That thing looks amazing!
I also think it's really cool of Squid Industries to help the community with tuning and everything.
Yo I was wondering if anyone knew what move Lucas was doing at 11:00
Just curious
know its been a while and u probably already found out but its the murnax ladder or the infinity ladder
@@Potatokid999 yep, i found out. thanks, though
the swordfish looks crazy so ill definitely pick one up when they release
these look sick
I need a teal Krake Raken 💀
Got one for sale on ig

3:52 the confederate flag is crazy
so great,i have buy balisong and it is so cool
W Squid industries
I really really like these!
Not will almost decapitating someone with the megalodon while showing off the tolerances 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
LOL I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE OH NO
Um where can I get the Madko that thing looks SICK

Will you be making a video on ceroni knives?
Unfortunately we weren't able to this year. Hopefully next year!
The madko seems sick, I might have to get one!
Waiting for you to review the Madko.(2nd time reminding😂) Brandon you might remember.😄
No one owns a Madko, as they aren't making them or selling them, and probably won't be for another 6 months to a year, so unfortunately no, we won't be able to do a review any time soon XD

Next year baby!
Hey will i think you should do a video showcasing your non balisong knives
I don't think Will owns a single non-balisong knife outside of a couple of standard kitchen knives haha
Haha yeah my collection is basically all balisongs
@@WillHirsch o ok 😂
I just ordered the mako and now there gonna be releasing these soon ima break the bank 😅
1:14 and 18:24 you can See Tucker flipz lol
Wish I could go to stuff like this, no Balisong events in New Zealand unfortunately
Hey will! How'd it feel to GO AND HAVE FUN AT BLADESHOW??? But fr love the videos and keep up the great work!
I see my friend that got the Jeff prysma in the back
Epic 🤩
Hey Will I have a question about the usage of Teflon tape. Could you apply it to your zen pins as well?
Yes, you can! You'd want to do less than you would with normal pivots, but yes it works for that!
@@thebrandonbakerclone awesome thank you. Im trying to branch and try something a little less messy and more accessible than loctite. Its a bummer to wait 12-24hrs only for the bond to break after it being dropped a few times.
Curious on when the madco and swordfish will be in drops so I can get them
they will drop mid august 2022
Great video! Hey audio engineers, any recommendations on mid tier lapel mics? Usbc maybe?
Also the swordfish looks incredible!
Wish I would’ve tried the hydro…If I’m not mistaken apparent it’s runs just on washers…thoughts? fingers crossed for blade show 2023 drop and Will any update on your monarch ???
Lucas has directly confirmed with us that it runs on bushings!
@@thebrandonbakerclone that’s why we pay you the big bucks. Thanks for clearing that up!!!
Will! you should review black balisong. the reaper or da purge
The hydro is coming out THIS YEAR ?
RIGHT??
@@WillHirsch today's episode on: My Bad Life Decisions
The pain of Will removing the balis and just placing them on the table..
i love this
Where is the squiddy-A?
Are you planning on getting a jimpy Sentinel? If yes pls review it
I wish I was there but I can’t
Hey Will can i use the super lube 51010 pen on my balisong? Thats the only lube that i have
I hope there's a swordfish in green annodization
Where can I get the knives featured in this video? And which blade show is this?
None of the products shown in this video are available online at the moment unfortunately, but hopefully will be soon! (minus the Megalodon haha)
Blade show east
How much will the swordfish be when it comes out
when will the vulp come back in stock
Pride swordfish!
I love my Mako!
titanium mako :o
How much will the madko swordfish and hydro cost
