    I will take one of each, please, Blacked Out, of course! Except, ironically enough, for The Microburst...😂😂😂

    @Greg-bz2bf ปีที่แล้ว

    I mostly purchased Jack Wolf knives this year with a few fixies. You inspired me to carry the Feelgood today. I prefer the Big Bro Jack, Laid Back and Venon. Dear Ben, time for a few EDC fixies and please continue with the slipjoints. Cheers all. Wishing the best in 2024 and beyond.

  • @Barney_Greenway
    @Barney_Greenway ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Very good choice there! You can‘t possibly imagine how envious I am, since this model is out of stock everywhere I look. Maybe, just maybe, it‘ll come back some day, like the Vampire Jack did. Fingers crossed! 🤞

    Just started my knife collection this year and I‘d be really hard-pressed to declare a singular favorite knife of the year, since they‘re basically all new to me. Asked point-blank I‘d have to give it to my Spyderco Shaman in 15V with the BBB heat treat. What a banger and thick as a brick 🤘😎

    @KnivesFAST ปีที่แล้ว +2

    My video will come up after Christmas and we have some similarities but differences as well obviously. And thank goodness I didn't try to select an overall winner. But that is a fantastic knife. I carry that more than any other slip joint. Thanks

      🤣. I get a free knife every month. But i bought the one that won. So….. its ok if you dont like them. They just are so good to me. Things i nerd out on are here. Im sure you have a brand you really jive with.

      @@Haveaknifeday73u are very cynical. Why would you watch if you think its all about money. I review all kinds of stuff, not just ones where i have links. Noone pays me to make videos. Thats the benefit of affiliate links if there is one. I get to promote the things i really love. You don’t get why i love them, thats ok. But insinuating its a bought “award” is just silly. Have you tried a Jack Wolf?

      @@Haveaknifeday73lol that is Your opinion, this is mine. Its kind of asinine to tell me that im wrong about something I feel. I just like this knife more than anything other this year. It got the most carry time. It served me extremely well compared to most knives i carry for a week or so for review and move on. Lots of great knives but this one stands out to me. Its that simple. Was the same way last year although i got the Venom in December so recency bias played a part in that one. The Feel Good came out in like May. So you should just be impressed that a knife kept my attention for more than a few weeks instead of coming up with conspiracy theories 🤣. Anyway, you need to start your own channel so you can express why you would choose X or Y for KOTY. Id watch it. Until then, don’t tell me what my opinion should be or that it’s wrong. Thats the whole point of an opinion, we all have one. Does your wife agree with you on your favorite food? My guess is no. Just basic human differences. Idk why im even explaining this. U know already 🤣.
