Same. The OKnife is definitely my favorite and has the best price. I love box cutters. I have a Milwaukee 6-in-1 that I use as much or more than most of my pocket knives. You just want to feel free to beat on it. Love the video. Great concept and info. Thank you Jay!
I picked up the Otacle a few months back, and love it. Fits easily in my 5th pocket and because of that takes up almost no space. I don't carry it every day like I do my "real" knives, but if I know I'm going to be doing something that could use a box cutter, in my pocket it goes.
I find it weird that you decided to do utility knives. Lately, I've been obsessed with them to the point where I now have two different brands of OTF utility knives and a titanium balisong utility knife. I'm just waiting for the Reate Exo-U to drop.
The upcoming Civivi Elementum box cutter will be pretty popular. I really don’t have a need for a utility blade beyond the $10 craftsman one I have in my tool bag, but if you do need one with better quality this is a great list!
@@GrandmasterBBC Hehe I'd rather just use my nice knives but I can see the use case for these guys, especially for people that work in environments that only allow box cutters.
Thanks! Yeah, I know what you mean. I think I would probably miss not carrying a "regular knife", but these are great for opening boxes. Sometimes I don't feel like dealing with tape residue on my good knives.
I bought the coast shift when it first came out I work construction so I use it for drywall it was great at first easy open easy blade change but after about a year of use the blade keeps popping off in my pocket it's very frustrating
They're ALIVE! The Frankenstein cutter knives! Great content for ya Jay. Evolved a bit from the Stanley 99A utility we had in the 60s. Call me crazy, but with a bunch bunch of new blades just ready to use I'll still go to the whetstone. I just know I'm gonna die before I use them all.
We have three of the Gerber EAB floating around the house and they get constant use. Picked up the Oknife recently, however, and it’s better. Just wonderful utility at a great price.
Didn’t include Jerry Rig Knife?!? Great cutter for a great price. It’s not an auto or quick open, just an all metal except one, solid locking, easy blade change knife.
Check out Exceed Designs TiRant V3 Razor. Titanium, super slim, finished beautifully. I’ve been carrying one for quite a while and I won’t carry anything else. The owner is a super guy too.
I really like the Boker Ive had it about 3 months but last week it developed a problem that I cant load a new blade in it. I need to disassemble it and take a look.
Utility knives? I got two (2) Husky brand utility/box cutter knives ( a 2-fer deal ) for about $10.. I keep one in my EDC pouch and one in my kitchen junk drawer.
The video was informative but I got motion sick trying to watch it. Please place the camera on a stable platform and stop fidgeting with the objects especially in upclose shots.
The Oknife is WAY too short on the handle side. If you go to close it normally it will cut your palm. Been there and done that. On top of the fact that the pocket clip is not hardened, so if you catch it on a seat belt or something else, it will bend immediately. I wanted it to be nicer than it is and the action is o.k., but frankly it needs 1/2" of length at least on the handle and a hardened pocket clip. Heck, just make it 2 screw compatible with another knife company's clip and we are good. But it only has 1 screw on the clip and is not compatible with other brand pocket clips. Such a disappointment.
@@TheKnifeBeater Amen. I am not going to lie, I have always had a pudgy palm, and this thing left a mark the first time I casually flicked it. :) I gave it to my son in law to put in his tool box a few days later after the pocket clip caught on a seat belt and bent straight out (no hardening on the pocket clip). There is a lot of promise in the design for sure, they just need to fix a few things.
For those recommending the EXO-O are lying! It’s straight trash! don’t bother it is a fidget toy only. The blade will not stay in the clamp style that they use if you literally cut anything at all. Straight garbage and waste of money
The best Coast utility knife aka a box cutter is the DX126 it is only 12 dollars it is compact and well thought out for the job site.
I will take the Oknife box cutter thanks for sharing Jay

You bet Grim!
Exceed designs Tirant V3 to rule them all!
I am interested in that one.
@@TheKnifeBeater you’d love it the most! Royale w/ cheese…
Yes! I’ve had the Tirant V3 for some time now. It is excellent in every way. I carry it daily and love it.

Same here.
Nice options. I got the Exeed Designs Tirant v3 that I like a lot
I need to try that one.
Where do you get the drop point blades? I've never seen them, and would sure like get some!
I find it weird that you decided to do utility knives. Lately, I've been obsessed with them to the point where I now have two different brands of OTF utility knives and a titanium balisong utility knife. I'm just waiting for the Reate Exo-U to drop.
Yeah, these are definitely starting to get more attention.
Brilliant vid. I own and fell in love with the otacle.
Jay thanks for the video as I’m in the market for one of these utility knives.
You bet
Great selection of box cutters, and great coverage Jay, me likey.
Thanks Gman👍

Hey Jay. That was an outstanding video. I think of how often I use my knife when mostly what I really need is a box cutter.
But how fun is that?
@@Knivess0 More fun if you have one of these! 😁

Awesome comparisons, buddy! Have a great Sunday!
Thanks David!
Great video that oknife looks nice
I bought the coast shift when it first came out I work construction so I use it for drywall it was great at first easy open easy blade change but after about a year of use the blade keeps popping off in my pocket it's very frustrating
Really? That sucks, sorry to hear.
Time to add that G&G Hawk Shortcut to the collection.
Yes it is.

Lol! You're not alone, I know a bunch of people that touch up their disposable blades.
Is there any out there that are slip joints too?
That would be perfect for certain areas.
Idk, that's a good question. I'll have to look.
We have three of the Gerber EAB floating around the house and they get constant use. Picked up the Oknife recently, however, and it’s better. Just wonderful utility at a great price.
I agree.
who sells the replacement drop point blade for the Coast blade? Is it readily available except from the Coast company or is it propietary?
I know Amazon has them.
Didn’t include Jerry Rig Knife?!?
Great cutter for a great price.
It’s not an auto or quick open, just an all metal except one, solid locking, easy blade change knife.
Any names of titanium utility knives?
Check out Exceed Designs TiRant V3 Razor. Titanium, super slim, finished beautifully. I’ve been carrying one for quite a while and I won’t carry anything else. The owner is a super guy too.
@shanes1112 really beautiful knife
I really like the Boker Ive had it about 3 months but last week it developed a problem that I cant load a new blade in it. I need to disassemble it and take a look.
Oh man, I'm sorry.
now ya gotta try the Reate Exu-u
Yeah, I would like to.
Ill stick to my gerber...20 years edc and still going
I resharpen my box cutter blades. I'm cheap and why not?
Hawk shortcut or bust
I wouldn't mind trying one of those.
Origin of Manufacture ?
I can fix those smooth thumb studs with a dremel.
Yeah, that's a good idea.

Used to love that knife sooo much until i got the Civivi. Now thats my favorite
I cut myself with this knife, too!

these are for the ones that are too lazy or too stupid to learn how to sharpen their knives
Or to use as a dedicated box opener.
