9 minutes in to the video before the review starts but he doesn’t want to “waste our time reading specs” well I’m glad he spared us
Good review
I’ve wanted a Domino for a long time but just haven’t had the money to get one yet. It was gonna be the knife that I asked for from my fam at Christmas this year but I wound up changing my mind at the last minute and going with the Hogue RSK. I have no regrets in that though because the RSK has been in my pocket nearly everyday since I got it. It’s just an almost perfect EDC IMO. But next on my list is definitely a Domino, especially now after hearing how much you love it. Great video brother. Thanks.
The RSK is a great knife too... both are definitely must haves in my opinion. Thanks bud👊
That is interesting. I really like geometry. I have a Chaparral that is 0.012-0.013” behind the edge. Those are probably some of the best cutters Spyderco has made. Supposedly, Spyderco made the Nilakka very thin, but I haven’t found the numbers. If you want geometry, checkout Manly knives 0.007-0.008” behind the edge on their 12C27 and S90V Wasp model knives.
Yeah, geometry cuts:)) I did have a wasp actually... I ended up getting rid of it because I don’t find myself carrying slip joints much, so it just never found it’s way into my pocket, but it was an excellent slicer.
InThePocket You are right about that. Their Peak model is not a slipjoint, but maybe too large for some, it is around the same size as a Spyderco Endura.
EXCELLENT REVIEW , my man !
Thanks a lot!
@@inthepocket7405 Sure thing, my man !
Keep up the good work.
I love my domino. Thin good flipping, good ergos. It is my fav spyderco general carry ( some tasks do better with a larger knife). On Michael Christie’s tests the 204P underperformed his expectations, I have not had a stress test on the edge retention as I tend to strop after much use.
Me too, and I agree... Yeah, I’m not too surprised by that, and I think it will do okay in Gerald’s testing, but it won’t do what the composition would suggest.
I usually take a small rounded file to the sharp thumb holes and smooth them out then I roll up a scotch brite pad and gently twist it in the hole to smooth out the burs. Always works well.
Yeah, I pretty much do the same thing when they are too sharp, and it does work well👍
What's bento box
Excellent review as usual. The Domino has been around for a long time. Your review is a testament to Spyderco's longevity as a master tool maker. I appreciate that Spyderco offers a multitude of closely related models as there is something for everyone! Your want an over jimped handle or a smooth one, they have it, if you need a 1" or 4" leaf shaped blade, they have it, just pick your steel.
Thanks buddy:) yeah man, I agree. They do a good job at giving different options in a similar style. I think they get a lot of flack for it, but honestly, I think it’s a great way of going about it.
This is a masterpiece...
Eric Glesser at his very best...
Absolutely.
Awesome Chris, well done man. Like to see these test results.
👍 Nice knife to. Great vids In the pocket.. Great comparisons dude
Follow Outpost76, if you’re not already, and you will see it come along. Thanks a lot Marc👊
I would take xhp instead.. Especially with CF/g10 pattern laminate.. Hopefully it will prove to be nice and you have numbered version.. I have 4 knives 168V witch is owner of equator knives here in Jakarta.. I noticed this numbered versions are always perfectly finished.. And this is no exception.. Beautiful knife ,perfect grind and one of best ergonomics in entire Spyderco line up.. Enjoy it Kenny
I would too Marek:) I love my Xhp cf version, and it is done well, but definitely not perfect. Although, I got this used, and the original owner put a very low angle on it. It is also not a numbered one. It has a 12 dps secondary, and I think it was still around 17 thou bte👍 I am very happy with it, and looking forward to modifying it with a micarta scale, and probably some anodizing on the ti scales😁 thanks Marek
@@inthepocket7405 I'm sorry I again commented before knowing you ordered xhp version.. I just love this knife and I don't own it but I own Dice in same "dress" witch is smaller brother and it's even thinner bte I think.. I think both models ( I handled domino) has one of the best ergonomics in Spyderco knives and I really enjoy XHP.. I have 3knives in this steel (reground Slysz Bowie,Chaparral From and Dice).. If I will modify my dice I would put marbled CF on it.. It should be relatively easy as there are no nested liners.. Thank you Kenny and I'm sure you will make it even better (more yours) than original...
Great detailed review...not sure about the price though. I do like the fact that it has such a thin grind...to me that’s everything.
Thanks Mick. The price has been varying a lot, that’s why it was tough to give a definitive price, and the different versions vary. The cutting geometry is definitely where it’s at, and this knife has it in spades.
It’s a great knife. Manix quality ergonomics is a more “Socially Acceptable” size. Perfect EDC size for me.
Absolutely👌
I've thought of getting one myself. May just do it. I like the idea of a thinly ground Spyderco. As you mentioned..wish they did more like that. Thanks for the review Kenny..I enjoyed it. You may have talked me into buying one. Question is..blue 204P or Red CF in XHP? Not a fan of the red, but I DO like XHP.
I don’t think you would be disappointed Timbo👊 Yeah man, wish they would... Of coarse buddy:) that’s tough man... I’m sure the red carbon fiber looks better in person than it does in photos, for example, I like the black Cosby sweater scale way more than I thought I would although I am still going to make a micarta scale for it. I would prefer the Xhp I think, but I don’t think you could go wrong either way. There are aftermarket micarta scales available out there, and John Runyon (kmeuser) has a pretty sweet scale on his.
The chaparral and maybe the sage have thin blades. Their feel is not solid like the domino though.
@@stevenlachance8576 Yeah, I have the Chaparral lw. Great slicer but not thrilled with the frn or the fit in the hand. Great blade though..I should have gotten the cf or raffir model.
Domino!!!! Love the domino.
It’s such a great knife👍👊
What is up Kenny?.. haven't watched some "in the pocket" for awhile..trying to collect paper instead of steel for a bit but the bento domino has always intrigued me along with other models.. I've heard bento isn't very costumer friendly..you ever buy from bento? And thanks for the review..
It’s all good man... that’s probably a good thing lol I have heard that too, and I haven’t gotten any of their knives. Their retail price, and shipping on all orders has always deterred me. I like the Bento box blue, but I just got the Xhp one, which Spydercos Xhp is great, and I’m just going to make a micarta scale. Of coarse man
Where did you source your Cosby sweater? Can’t go wrong with CTS-XHP, I like the blue scales but might be interested in putting a sweater on my Domie..
I found a used one that a guy up for auction on eBay, and I manage to snag it for a great deal.
I’d say more tenacious than Manix in the blade tbh
I feel like the Domino would be good with a flipper delete. Without a flipper closing would be more fluid. The flipper hits my thumb on closing.
I agree Marc, and I think it would be better on washers personally. I still love it, but that would make it perfect.
BBS Domino is basically my favorite Spyderco. A little cleaning and lubing and they are as drop shut as anyone could ask for. And sooooo thin behind the edge.
Absolutely Halden... I absolutely love mine. The cutting geometry and ergos alone, make this one of my favorite Spyderco’s.
I want a lefty domino
Did I hear right? Someone is sending me a Domino? 🤸♂️🤸♂️🤸♂️
Now I can stop publicly begging! 😂
jcoolG19 2 hells fire. Didn’t know you hadn’t messed with one or I would’ve sent you one of mine.
@@johnm.runyon3682 😳 I could always test two! Is yours XHP?
jcoolG19 2 quit drinkin beer an yu buy one. Id buy on wit s30 or 35 steel
@@ericblade8330 quit drinking beer? What kinda crazy talk is that? 😂
I don’t know what this guy is on Kurt... he’s been on a year going through my videos suggesting Chinese knives and pushing s35. That’s right buddy😁😁😁 this knife is coming to you as soon as g finishes, which might take some time now that he has Roman’s knives😉😜😂
Is he rad
Kenny really good video!! The domino looks like a nice little knife!! I completely agree with you I wish Spyderco would put better bte thickness on more of their blades!! Thanks as always for sharing brother!!!👊👊👊 I followed on IG!!👊👊
Thanks a lot buddy! Yeah, I don’t know why they don’t.🤷🏽♂️ 👍👊👊
Great video check out blade banker on TH-cam . Rich 👍
Thanks Rich. I’ve watched a few of his vids, but it’s been hard to catch up with all the new channels. It’s hard for me to keep up with the channels I already follow lol
Ole Spydie dnt wanna pay their boys in USA?? I buy cold steel, Eafengrow, etc. S35 vn and all👎
Eric Blade what does eafengrow have to do with USA?
Steven Lachance nuthin. I used to care bout the anti~china thing, no more! I can tune up an effy, be almost as good as spydie. The s110 they use so hard it chips easily. Not me pal🔪
It’s more about the principal man... I’m just going to try to avoid China, unless in some way, I am supporting and American company. It my own prerogative, just like it’s yours to buy Chinese knives. Are you some kind of shill for Eafengrow? Either way, just let it be man, and stop pushing them in here please.
Steven Lachance its where i buy their blades. The whole china~American thing is B/S. Only thing we shd ask them to make are Wirebrushes!! Thats it. But, we cant help but look for a deal. Look where that has us
The washers start dishing overtime is my only issue. They’re too thin. I will bet that’s the issue, dished washers. They’re.005” thick.
Man... that’s the issue I heard they had with them. I was just saying to Marc, I wish they did these with washers.
InThePocket yeah, or made the bearing pocket deeper and made the washers thicker, like .010”.
