    Are you sure it's using PB washers? He uses a grey nylatron, last time I checked.

      I was wondering what happened there. I saw the video, but, had another short video to watch first, and, when I came back three minutes later, IT WAS GONE! 😱
      That intro was worth the short wait, and, who doesn't like Emerson Knives? Great stuff, all around. 👍

    Man, rewatching this video (yes, I rewatch your videos multiple times *looks away to the side and blushes*) the intro gets me every time, a masterpiece! My second favorite is from your The A to Z of Blade Steels - New Edge Retention Roundup because that song is just soo catchy xD

    I think it was Neroknives who pointed out that the lockstick kinda works as an extra safety feature and might actually be a deliberate thing Emerson does with his knives. Not sure about that though. I just ordered my first Emerson, the CQC8 Horseman, interested to see how it stacks up to something like the Recon 1 in terms of "hard use".

    I would certainly never want to get in a knife fight with Emerson (anyone, really), but from a practical point of view, what do his designs offer that a RAT 1 D2 doesn't do just as well for 1/5th the price? For that matter, the current Ganzo Firebirds in D2 (which amazingly enough seem to be their own designs. Shocking!) offer more for even less.

    • @CedricAda

      @100BearPaw 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Do any of us really “need” another knife anyhow? Ha ha ha. Heck no. So get them both. I have found myself the perfect knife for me about six times now. If you get what I’m saying. I am just as much a fan of the hunt, than actually having the perfect knife. For all sectors even. Meaning folders and fixed for all categories. It’s just part of the “hobby”, or lifestyle. Gives us a reason to work hard through the week.

    I'm not the biggest fan of Emerson or his often impractical designs, but the A100 is tempting.
    That said, why would you buy this when you can buy a ZT Emerson with a similar design (like the 0640)? It has a much more premium steel (CPM-20CV), titanium and carbon fibre handle and without question a much better build quality and fit & finish.
