The handle looks awesome . The blade looks awesome . Together they make a weird looking knife . The price seems very reasonable and fair .
I just received the drop point version of this knife with the 'fuel slick', handle coloring. This a an excellent folder, Smooth action and great lockup.
The owners of the company, Chapman lake knives, are great people. I ordered a pre-made, they had a few tanto bladed versions listed that were ready to go. Well, the system messed up and let me order a knife that was already sold. Upon realizing the system glitch, they didn't tell me to pick another pre-made. They said "we'll make you another one just like it and expedite the order", though they had a waiting list. I also asked if I could change to a drop point, and they make the knife to order with no questions asked. I got it in about a week.
I highly recommend these guys. I hope they stay around, all these are made to order, and have excellent fit and finish with high tolerances. Soon as you pick the knife up and flip it open, you can feel the quality in the knife.
Thanks Jack! Glad you like it, and we appreciate the kind words.
I have to say I was not expecting that blade shape when he flipped it. Handle looks awesome, blade is a little strange for me. Thanks for the content.
yea, looks like an OTF size blade
Their CLK-1D drop point has a MUCH better blade style matched up with the same handle. Just my opinion, of course.
@@stratobungle Little insider history - it was originally designed with the drop point blade. We changed to Tanto just before the first production run because we felt the copious curves of the handle might be better balanced out with the straight edges of a tanto. Consensus here seems to be we had it right the first time, and we proudly offer both options. I personally favor the drop point quite a bit myself, and I designed both.
@@rosshardisty7622 I really love the blade on this one. It is unexpected with the handle but I still love the blade. I love the look of tanto blades though so I’m a little partial to it lol. But I’d definitely love to have one myself for sure. The quality looks really nice
@@rosshardisty7622 the tanto life is the only way!!
The drop point version blade is much more aesthetically pleasing and matches the handle. Beauty
Just ordered mine. Electric blue and emerald green hardware in drop point. Can’t wait!
I figured this would be right down your alley MC. You always like that crazy stuff
I don't love the tanto blade but they have a drop point I'm really liking. I'm curious how much they can mix/match. Especially if the blades can be swapped or not, like the drop point with that sexy blue handle in the video.
We can customize either blade shape with any achievable anodization color. You can mix and match any handle/screws/spacers combo you'd like!
Picked one up this weekend. I have hundreds of knives and was excited to take this home. Impressed the boys make their own screws as well as rverything else.
Thanks again, Mike! I'm going to miss that knife.. Might have to make a 'Galactic Webb' with aqua hardware for myself! Either that or try and buy it back from you someday...
I am glad these are out there.
Thanks for the link. I’m not the biggest fan of tanto blades, but I have to say the CLK-1D in Slate Grey is sexy.
Thanks MC for the review! Awesome as usual. Always cheering for a USA made knife. I think there’s one with my name on it!
It's a nice looking knife nice to see something made in the USA
That looks awesome. They have a drop point version in something they call fuel slick that really is tempting.
Well, I didn't hold out long, I had to give them a try.
That fuel slick looks good. It's done with a sponge soaked in the solution they use and just tapping here and there with it. No 2 are alike.
The tanto gods have been very pleased with this one 😮
Yes we are
The knife is absolutely beautiful, love the look and color love at first sight.❤
I think that's awesome right out of the box personally.
Thanks for the look around MC!
That's a true blurple I've got an LBS for my Strider that does that. It's awesome in person! 👊🏼
The blade doesn’t match the handle.
It’s Nice like that👍🏼
As in the side profile? What It reminds me of is a OTF.
Exactly what i was about to comment. Would look nicer in a straight clip point or spear/drop point.
it's a knife , not a purse and skirt
Yeah I wasn't expecting that blade to come out of that handle
I’ll bet a classic wharnie blade would be awesome on the same handle profile. $400 considering WE makes their premiums at about the same price in China makes this pretty attainable
That anodizing looks phenomenal!
It's super fantastical looking. Reminds me of some of the brous stuff.
It nails the colors for both KU and KSU. What's not to love? Not starting the football/Basketball argument between the two schools.
I love it, always good to see nice US made knifes
Love the blade shape and color of the scales
I really like it ! Thank you for sharing
Vibes reminiscent of Hawk Deadlock C (blade to handle ratio) meets ultratech tanto. Sweet looking knife.
What an awesome knife!!! jst need to shrink the handle to fit the blade or increase the blade size to match the handle.. but keep everything else the same.. Awesome Mc!!
Genuinely a fan. It reminds me of the benchmade 940 in all the best ways.
Very 940 essc to me . I bet it's just as comfortable as a 940 . This is to me my eye and probably because I'm carrying the ti 940 today
The tanto blade-to-handle flow reminds me of an OTF knife.
Really liking those handles that color is so vibrantly blue but not in a cheap way. Yeah I'm really liking that color and the knife definitely seems like a quality small production custom made knife. Only complaint so far is the blade finish i would have preferred a hand rubbed or tumbled finish with a slight mirror finish, even still the polishing work on the satin tanto isn't to bad at all and I def agree with mc about the blade it needs more size or girth to it, something.
I love the handle. I agree with the blade needing a bit more length and some more height. I'm also not sure that the tanto is the right shape to match it. As a tool, it's probably great.
Thanks for the feedback, many future designs planned and love the suggestions. Have a look at our drop point and let us know what you think!
@@rosshardisty7622 I like that a lot more. My preferences for length and height are similar, but again, as a tool, it probably works better as a slicer the way it is. Overall, nicely executed.
@@GenericAssUsername Thanks very much!
I love how it goes to K State purple! Almost the exact color! Go Wildcats!
Put in an order for one man. it's gorgeous and I love supporting new companies from the US
Wow that’s so pretty I was forced to buy one. Thanks MC for bringing this piece of art to our awareness
Actually I like it. How the spine is lower than the handle, The profile totally screams OTF. I personally won't own a otf for reasons but this. Picture standing there it open while cleaning a fish and the knife giving off the otf vibe and Aurora of manliness is beaming off you.. As somebody looking at you, Like you just reached down pulled it from the water and assassinated the fish . LOL.
That is a very nice knife 👍👍👍. Love the tanto.
Love the tanto a lot too, and that color! If they'd put thumb studs on it and allow it to fall shut, I'd have to spring for one!
Love the support for the US companies!!
Nice work.
Love the handle, not sure if the blade goes with it. Blade looks like it belongs on a Microtech auto. Separately, they are both beautiful, but they don't jell together, at least IMO. Still, definitely not bad and interesting.
Thank God for different knives!
That's a knife - love, love, love it. I'ma go git one now !
Thanks so much!
I like that a lot! That color! The best part is that it’s unique. I do agree that the blade needs a little more height to be totally aesthetically pleasing to my eye. Still, very cool piece.
I agree with wanting to have a taller blade, especially with a thumb ramp on the back
Looks like a good knife. I like your box cutter it’s cool. I carry pocket knife made by Case they been really good pocket knives for me and last for years .
I think im loving this. I was looking these up on their website while watching this. I may be getting one in the near future.
Wow - that’s an insane blue. Definitely electric blue like they say haha. Grrrr hate this bc now it’s a mental debate on want versus need hahaha.
I don’t think this is really my flavor but I’ll be watching for more from them because that looks really nice
I am late on this video but I have to say I really like it. I would like to have it.. Thanks for the video.
Was waiting a long time to see a review on this knife, thanks MC :)
Cool shape to the handle, not keen on tan-toes, but it sounds very light and "tinny".
Does it feel "gas stationey" light, or does it feel light but substantial?
Fit and finish looks nice, and your review (unboxing) highlights strengths well, as always...
I'm working on commissioning a blade with these guys as well.
That anodizing is amazing!
What a great looking piece! Now I have to decide if I want a new kite or a new knife & yes I have kites twice the price of this knife! ~ LoL
That blade looks so cool; reminds me of an emerson raven dna blended with a Shirogorov flowing handle. Wicked knife!
Would’ve loved to see a Persian blade
I really like the blade itself, but it looks too small compared to the handle. Not too short, but narrow like an OTF. Glad to see more USA makers stepping up.
Bout to hit 150K! Congrats ahead of time!
I like that shape a lot, now I have a bad case of the wants
Different blade shape would be awesome(my opinion)..great job guys - this thing is amazingly beautiful and precise. Thanks to Chapman & co. and mc.
Edit - I see they have a drop point. Fn awesome !
I had a 30th anniversary Camaro with paint like that, that went from blue to purple.
Not a big fan of Tantos but I really like that knife.
Looks like a damn good fit.
The handle design is very similar to the Bestech and Elijah Isham Reticulan. I actually thought that's what it was in the thumbnail and wondered when Bestech became a US company.
Beautiful!
Not a huge fan of the bladeshape but I would love to get my hands on one as I love supporting someone local and I also live in Indiana. Great content mc keep it up man 👊
I love some good American made knives! I will be buying one.
Good looking knife- the color change is awesome.
These boys know their way around a machine shop for certain, cant imagine how long it’d take me to make that on my 1943 Bridgeport mill lol
Handle reminds me of a benchmade 940 and the blade reminds me of a microtech tanto
Looks badass 💯
That's beautiful, Bro... I am digging this one. And, it has a nice size Flipper to protect your fingers with, if the lock fails. Beautiful! :-) Peace, Stiletto :-)
Looks really cool. Not exactly my taste, but 👍👍to the craftsmen!
This thing has Doom written all over it! I had never heard of them. Added to short list.
It's refreshingly weird. Really like it
Very impressed. When I saw the blade was CPM20CV it really caught my attention. My EDC is CPM20CV & I like it by far better than any knife I have ever carried. I'm impressed with how smooth it seems to be.
i'm personally quite a fan of the profile, and a nice large beautifully anodized Ti button lock with an unconventional but not quite bizarre handle shape really appeals to me. i don't have any qualms other than that the tanto with its straight lines is an odd blade shape for the curvy contours of the handle, but then i'm not the hugest fan of tanto blades in general. still if i had the $400 i would spring on it.
Looks nice, I'll have to keep an eye on the company.
Spent all my budget for this year, but imma have to get one next year. Love the idea of a full ti button lock made in the US. Considering how hard it is to get a Protech at msrp, or how rare a ti Protech is in general, this is almost a steal. I love the quirkiness of the shape, and then the seriousness of the blade.
Also that ano is stupid cool.
That is absolutely gorgeous!
I live like an hour from Bloomington lol
Good pricing, considering.
Another absolutely sick knife. That blade . . . damn.
Looks great, nice work!
Thanks, your work looks pretty great also ;)
Live in lovely LFK. Love your reviews!!
Having grown up in NE KS, I'm a KU fan, but KU/KS...constant battle. Cool knife.
The CLK CLK-1D looks better the drop point blade shape goes better with that curvy handle IMO the blade looks too small for the handle. They seem to excel at anodization. They have a ton of color choices.These a pretty knives not something I'd want to carry though $400.
Check out the new model that's coming soon on our website - we've had a lot of people say they'd like a taller and longer blade, and we intend to deliver on this.
Love tanto hate sharpening them.
I'd dig it more with a kwaiken style blade
Good work. Interesting design.
First thing I thought was that it looked like a Benchmade 940 if they made a flipper version. The handle has that little angle but otherwise pretty similar concept I think. Blade to handle proportions are better on the 940 though but the tanto grind is pretty cool.
Very nice knife and cool its made in USA. But I dont carry show looking knives.
Handle screams Isham but the blade whispers Emerson lol
Watching as im flipping the phenomenal cjrb pyrite... what a knife lol and for only $50 is insane.
Handle had me all the way. That first flip immediately killed it for me. If they got that blade down I think it would be a winner
What do you think of the drop point on the site?
I'm from bloomington indiana I'd like to know if they do fixed blades and what other folders they have
I love the look of that.
How do you even do that ano? Also sick knife, looks like they did a really good job on it. Wish the blade was more broad, but that's me
Really nice looking knife. I just cant do it for $400.
On this just wish the blade was wider. Think it would look much better. The handle is pretty cool though definitely stands out!
Not my style, but They do great job on the grids , ano is super clean. Cant wait to see what all they can do .
Thanks so much! I very intentionally designed this without really looking at much of what is out there. Just wanted to design something that looked good to me. All this feedback is very helpful as a designer!
@@rosshardisty7622 great Job ! I really like how its open flow throw design the at the top the scales meet that was super different and a cool concept
