Heretic Knives Hydra: Powerful, bold and truly bad ass

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 ก.พ. 2017
- Anthony (T.J.) Marfione has created a more easily carried single-action OTF with all the power and badassery we could hope for from a larger, slightly less practical one. Complete with a mirror polished blade and copper hardware, this one is as much art as it is tactical.

Damn that Marfione mirror polish is soooo god damn nice!
he opens the knife at 4.41
Thanks I hate hearing this pig go on and on dragging it out for minutes
The stone wash looked sick
attention to detail is real. good god. beautiful
Wait, OMG- did they really spell handle wrong on the certificate of authenticity? Lol.
Just curious- is the charging handle (or "handel") strong? that copper looks a bit thin from its sculpting & holes. Otherwise, a very cool sleek build, obviously a lot went into it.
nice video Jim..always look forward to the next one..btw the knives you are making need to get under that lens...js well done buddy
Im late to the show but better then never....BadAss! But hell now that you said it, cant unsee the dingus , lol . Even still I like this one, thanks for sharing
Took me a 10 minutes to realize this was made today
Are these still made? Everywhere I can find them they say it’s discontinued. Anyone know where to find one? Will they do more runs in the future?
just awesome...😱😱😱
Very nice 👌 👍
What about the blade wobble that all OTF's seem to have?
One thing that I've always wondered is why Marfione Customs and now Heretic doesn't use titanium for the chassis. I get with Microtech I guess it's to cut costs but even with something like the custom Combat Troodon/Interceptor like yours or the Halo IV or the Hydra they still use just SS. Even on a Dragonslayer that can reach a price equal to say a Timascus integral from Dalibor or one of Stan Wilson's, it's still SS. Some have said the Ti won't fare well in the long run with all the moving parts but that can easily be remedied by adding steel plates/inserts where there's friction. Marfione uses quite a bit of Ti in the custom folders so it should be a no brainer to use.
So you don't have to be Military or LE to send Microtech your automatic for warranty work and have them send it back to you? I hope this changed cause that was weak. I have over a dozen OTF/side opening autos from them and worry about not being able to get a replacement action spring which I've needed... I just make a new hook on the end of the spring but that makes the action stronger...I wish they would just mail me some!!!! But I'm not going through a dealer and there are none in SA TX anyway. Should be some with our laws getting really good September 1,2017!!!!!
Haha haha "HANDEL" derp.
What is the finish on the chassis? (DLC or Cerakote?)
Tony Marfione's son did an awesome job creating this company and competing with microtech I would buy both your pretty much getting the same quality and craftsmanship love the bounty hunter I want to buy the whole set from the exocet to the combat troadon
I see something like a spartan helmet on the pocket clip ;)
So I am confused by the stone washed pics ...it had different screw heads and safety cover then the black one.....
Gorgeous knives
Marfione's son goes to my school no joke
Make friends with em.
Sehr gut Jim, guter Junge. Viel Spaß noch mein Häschen...bussi
Why it says "HANDEL" on the card, not "HANDLE"?
*Why does it say (by the way, that is pretty darn funny)
Shit - thought I was the only one to spot that...Lol..
fun fact, in polish HANDEL means TRADING, and the finish on that blade... jay-sus!!!
pete6891 Fun fact 2: HANDEL means trading in Swedish too.
Sven Svensson fun fact 3 same in German
i'm not totally surprised at the slower rate of sales on this new line of Marfione customs....i think Microtech as a whole has lots of (too many) OTF offerings, and i think fans and collectors of the brand-production and custom- would like to see more manual action and auto folding models ...also, the cosmetics of the materials and finishing might have a limited appeal ...i DO NOT doubt the quality for one second though....the size and added safety features are a huge plus to the model...i think adding a different finish option would help
I love you Jimmy
BTW..i have a 12/1995 HALO-AP (plain edge blade) on it's way to me (1000 pcs total- 500plain edge/500serrated)...it will be ,my first Halo model, i want the Halo5 next...2-tone models like yours are rare, but i would like a textured button model...
anyone else want to know how to remove the lock to build a ballistic knife
That pocket clip is in the shape of an “H” for Heretic.
Crazy, but when looking at the thumbnail, I said that these were the nicest knives since the Marfione tragoons. This without knowing the provenance of who was involved with this new knife.
Isn't the clip an H?
Just to re-cap then, it's well made, weighs the same as a small anvil, needs three distinct operations to use and then re-use, and costs as much as many budget cars. Appreciating that yours is a 'custom knife' channel where cost is a secondary consideration, I still reckon this example is 'all show and no go'. No disrespect intended Jim but this is 'The Emperor's New Clothes' in my humble view.......peace.
paul greenwood to be fair every single action otf has the same action to close. They all have charge handles or some have the tab out the side you pull down All other complaints I can't argue with.
Otf triton knife online shoping order
The production model is available of this knife for 425.00 no where near as nice but 1/2 the weight and 154 cm blade steel aluminum handles the pocket clip not as nice,I wish TJ would have kept the same design in that. The double Begg pocket clip would have been awesome and I would have been willing to pay 600.00 if that was left alone.
What's on the other side of the Certificate of Authenticity? You never did show it.
Flying Hellfish I sure did.
Jim Skelton dammit that's what happens when you cook breakfast and watch the video at the same time!! The changes he made to your knife..I'm an idiot
Flying Hellfish LOL
Chaka Khan!

don't mind me I'm just scrolling through comments
Still with the ounces only, eh? How about them there metrical units that the internets use for the, what'sit -- "international au-dee-ance" :P
A lil dingus, yeah. a lil peepee
Oh why did you change the blade in that knife., so sad
I didn't. The blade is exactly the same, no changes.
The knife you reviewed sometime back, Tony Marfione Custom Combat Had a beautiful blade but the one you showed here at 10:39 has a different blade
Waqar Ghulam because they’re different knives. Two different Combat Troodons.
The knife is cool but why does it look like it came from a cheap Chinese Mtech design. Its the paint and the clip that really makes it look that way to me. For that money I'll take a Rockstead
Very nice knife but 2 grand no it’s not worth that price it’s a collector item at that level
That knife is not worth that price I'll take a Microtech Troodon any day over that knife!
Jeremy Warrick thanks for the news flash.
They all look like copies of the 7 different styles of knife ever made.
every brand comes out with a "new" knife and they all look the same
The clip is really bad thats what I hate. And replacement clips are 100$?!? I mean shit.. if you are gonna make a knife with a shit clip make the replacement clip affordable.
i love microtech but this heretic knives are ugly
The real question is where he gets the balls to charge that much for those microtech knockoffs
Pathetic
Speaking of microtech maybe they can get off their asses and actually produce some combat troodons.maybe even some without a useless dapper point for a change
I own five microtechs
Great knives waaayyy overpriced
Total shit customer service
Vaspa kicks butt
did you just say “vespa kicks butt” ? if so you lost any kind of credibility to your argument
@@ilikeknafs9563
Obviously you dont own any then
And everything i said was true
@@aaronl8609 why would i buy an ugly ass chinese made knife that copied other brands
