I think there needs to be a video called “If Blade HQ employees were knives” and let the employees chose which knife someone would be. It would be comical and interesting 😅
Kurt would be the bug out, Jamie the Green auto Benchmade that he loves and Zac....I feel like he would really debate btw the classic Swiss Army, the Leatherman, or Tom Brown Tracker .... then again they might all just end up a group of 🧜♀️ Mermaids lol
Awsome overall products you guys have.I have an old cold steel base ball bat I have beating on cars,trees ,rocks and a few other things I can not quite go into.lol .Your products are made to take a beating and keep on going without breaking.Thanks for making high quality items Cold Steel.....
The Japanese character for Ta, た, is pronounced with the flatter “tah” sound. Japan doesn’t have the phoneme for æ (as in “cat”). So if it’s of Japanese origin, I’d naturally say the word “tahnto” unless I wanted to throw some southern twang on it.
Tahhhnto. It's the same sound as you make in the name of both Japanese/samurai swords; katana and wakizashi. And, Battle Hulk for that Bailout was perfect. 👏 Pocket clips...two is one and one is none?
I have a Cold Steel Magnum Tanto San Mai with a 9" blade I bought in the '80s. It has survived everything I have done with it, and it still sharpens up just like it was brand new. I have it taped upside down on my LBE strap so it's always there.
I've got a Cold Steel with two pocket clips on it. It's called the Grik, the reason why I have the two on there is because it fills out the handle some more. When you look at the knife you'll get it.
Greetings from Finland, been carrying the Bailout for 6 months and it will take something REALLY special for me to change it out. Love the show, keep it up!
Blade HQ Tonto was the Lone Ranger’s faithful companion; Tanto refers to a short blade sword. The interesting part is the blade point style is called a kissaki point and was designed to punch under or through armor. Saying Taantoe is a more correct. This style of blade was also said to be the choice for Samurai to commit Seppuku to save face from defeat in battle or other failures to follow the Samurai code. However, it does hold up much better than pointy blades when punching thru tough materials. Cold Steel knives use their own designed point that is not quite a traditional Kissaki style point. I have two early Cold Steel models one uses V10 and one uses German D2 steel. New blade steels are not always better than older ones; in some cases they are just what one knife maker chooses to use at the time. Some steels used in the past were more costly or difficult to use. They were replace for that reason; not that they were inferior steels in anyway.
@@itstime5390 Reply to itstime@ When was a kid; I always gazed into knife display cases at the hardware store and wanted one of every kind. I wasn’t very old; when my Mom bought me a pocket knife with Rusty and Rin-Tin-Tin on it. It had the Morse-Code on the other side. I was so little I had no chance of getting it open. I carried it everywhere for a long time. My Pappy would open it; and under his watchful eye and let me try to peel an apple. He could peel an apple and have one continuous piece of peel from beginning to end. I’m still trying to perfect that trick. The day came when I got that knife open; I felt like I was man. The little problem was after whittling sticks and cutting hay bales loose I didn’t know how to close the blade safely. Pappy always did it for me. Well; I cut my finger closing the blade; I had to run to Granny for medical assistance. When I watch the knife flicking show they do on knife channels; I wonder how many people get cut playing with sharp knives. That makes me laugh every time I see them doing it. Thank you for your kind reply. I still can’t stop fooling with knives and likely never will.
I have a lot of Cold steel knives. my recon 1 tanto blade is my everyday carry. It just feels right and everything else doesn't feel the same. I have two clips on my Spartan. sometimes it's the only knife I carry or sometimes it's my self-defense knife along with an EDC in the other pocket so I can carry it on either side depending on what the function is.
Kurt, the Cold Steel Recon Tanto was my first "combat" knife that I bought after I graduated USMC School of Infantry and Infantry Training at Camp Geiger, Camp Lejuene, NC. Still have it to this day
Great video as always guys!! So I spoke with someone there named Dallas via email the other day with some questions and Dallas was super helpful and cool! Soo Shout in for Dallas; from random knife dude! Haha I wanna know if you guys could feature something from the Brand DEFCON? I’m getting a Defcon Valkyrie in M390 for my birthday in a couple days and curious about the brand and they seem to be kind of a sleeper. Just a request/suggestion to see one at some point. Thanks, knife on!
Kind of excessive, but I used to carry the Spyderco Yojimbo 2 with both clips for a while (clips mounted for left and right tip up). The ergo's on the knife didn't make it uncomfortable at all, surprising enough. I was working as a lab assistant so it was really convenient to be able to put the knife in either pocket if one of my hands were tied up doing something else and the supervisor walked in randomly.
There are 3, either one of the Cold Steel Recons, or the Kershaw Shuffle II, I have a drop point shuffle and for the small size I beat it up and it comes back for more.
Should do a episode on good Gym/workout and running knifes!!!!! What do you guys and girls take to the gym or on the run? A Ontario Rat 2 has been my go to for years but I took out some of the screws to help lighten it.
CRKT Minimalist. I'm not a neck knife guy, but I haven't found something I like that'll stay in my gym shorts. Thought about the Spyderco ARK too for corrosion resistance, but haven't pulled the trigger yet.
I picked up 4 Civivi Fractures and LOVE THEM!! The orange drop point Fracture is actually my new upland hunting knife. Pick them up before they're gone...limited run!
Rad blades today! In the past week I've purchased 4 blades from you guys and I'm browsing for my next...you created a problem for me and I'm not even mad!
I have a Voyager tanto and a recon tanto. both L size .. In my opnion I like the look of the Cold steel tanto knives the best of all the knives showed...and they are strong and hold a edge very well. Love it!
I love the XR lock by SOG. I think that they have nailed the crossbar lock. And, I am loving Tantos more and more. Got my PM2 with the Tanto blade and it has become my main EDC.
I’m a Cold Steel fan and think the recon 1 folder rules the roost but I can’t carry it EDC anymore because the G10 has devoured all of my pockets. I can’t beleive there was no love given to the new Buck GCK, which I just ordered from you😉. I feel like they really hit a home run with this knife in both blade configs.
I missed my first opportunity for the tanto pm2. I check the website everyday even though I have it email and text notify me when they come in stock again. I can't wait to get my hands on it!
Most of your buyers are from 1977 or before. We represent the most of your customers. We evolve to the new styles and blde shapes but thats what keep us new to all the changes in styles and blade shapes.
I have two pocket clips on my XL COLD STEEL Vaquero VOYAGER....i do this to be able to carry it in the regular standard way as well as reverse grip with the blade facing forward.
As to the double pocket clips. I can see it being utilized for LEO’s who generally carry a pocket knife weak side/concealed carry weak side. But carried strong side off duty/non-concealed. Although most probably just have two knives for the right occasion.
The SOG.Vision would have been complete with s glass breaker. SOG knives are incredible and very underated. With regards to the lock it makes sense why the blade does not flop close because it protects the blade's edge! Think about it!
I love the CRKT BT-70. It was on my wish list until it was discontinued! Alas, I didn't get to own one. It is beautiful and I like the dragon that is engraved in the scales.
I have a CRKT M16 Tanto, which has been part of my EDC for over a decade, and it's such a fierce and potent knife. Just looking at that tanto tip and I'm like, "Yeah, that'll take care of this..." I have my eyes on the Bailout; I'd like to see a different color variance though. I think a plain-edge tanto is a great EDC, and the Bailout is a premier knife that really holds its own!
Double-clipping?...I did it on my Cold Steel Air Lite (comes in tanto...) and it didn't make an ergonomic mess of things - quite symmetrical, and I can pocket it in any of four pockets. Better? No. Serves a different purpose? Yes.
I'd like to add a few tanto knifes to the list ... 1. SOG Vulcan I Arc-Lock Manual (Tanto Plain) VL-03, 2. CRKT Carson M16-14D Desert Camo Tanto Flipper Knife, and 3. CRKT Tighe Tac Two Tanto Flipper Button Lock Knife ... I really like the SOG Vulcan ...
Love the models your showing and am looking forward to the PM 2 Tanto, but out of all of them my favorite knife of all time is the CS Recon 1 Tanto. If I had to go to war, that knife is going with me.
I have an OG Recon Tanto in Carbon V. What a beautiful tank. I’ve chopped trees with it, chipped my car out of over flow lake ice and all sorts of other abusive things.
Sometimes I will put a pocket clip on the opposite side of my spyderco harpy. You would be surprised at the extra grip you get from a clip being on both sides.
I got a tanto Recon 1 in CTS-XHP before they switched to S35VN. The CATRA of the XHP steel is superior, edge holding wise, to the S35VN. For that matter so is S30V. I like the fine edge the XHP takes.
Can we see the space machete next? It’s the case knives machete that was sent to the moon! Also a vid about left handed knives or ambidextrous knives would be very appreciated. PM2 tanto looks awesome!
I have that exact Kershaw Shuffle 2 and I love it so much. My BFF is a knife girl and she got it for me and I was kinda just like oh cool ya know neat but no big deal. It's SUCH a good little knife though! I use the hell out of it. The geometry makes it stupid easy to get a hair popping edge on it, it's good for just about any cutting task you will run into... it opens beers and it has a flathead/prybar on the back. I abuse it like a nuckle dragged ad-nauseaum and I still haven't messed it up at all. KAI plz make a ZT version or release it in 14c28n and G10 plz!
Kurt, come on man.... how are you gonna have a Boker kalashnikov shirt on and not pick a tanto version to show? Great budget friendly edc. Great show guys!
I have the Kershaw shuffle 2 . I hated it at first. Then decide to give it a longer try and found it was a great utilitarian knife. Although I have yet to use the most over hyped "tool". Aka bottle opener.
The tanto pm2 looks super sexy even though I think a normal pm2 has a more useful blade shape. Also the term for the tip grind that is missing on the bailout is called the kissaki on a traditional tanto/katana
First time viewer of your page. Awesome video and informative, 8:02 Benchmade Bailout, is the knife ambidextrous? Being left handed is hard to find a knife that will suit me. what’s the difference between this vs the 940? Which one do you recommend for light weight to carry around

How much caffeine do you think Jamie had before shooting this episode?
Blade HQ The correct answer is not enough 😉
A lot!
lets go with a solid guess of enough to kill a horse
Blade hq you’re first
A lot
I think there needs to be a video called “If Blade HQ employees were knives” and let the employees chose which knife someone would be. It would be comical and interesting 😅
YES I think Kurt would be the espada XL for the hams
Cole McClure I agree. @BladeHQ make it happen!
Yes please
Cole McClure I don’t know why, but Kurt strikes me as more of a Buck 119.
Kurt would be the bug out, Jamie the Green auto Benchmade that he loves and Zac....I feel like he would really debate btw the classic Swiss Army, the Leatherman, or Tom Brown Tracker .... then again they might all just end up a group of 🧜♀️ Mermaids lol
Yeah guys we love it. Well done.
We love you!

Fixed blade Kris please
And we Love Cold Steel!
Cold Steel always makes THE BEST tantos.
The Japanese character for Ta, た, is pronounced with the flatter “tah” sound. Japan doesn’t have the phoneme for
æ (as in “cat”).
So if it’s of Japanese origin, I’d naturally say the word “tahnto” unless I wanted to throw some southern twang on it.
Justin Galle thank you. So many people call it a tan- to
FBI Security Van you do know your not the real fbi right?
Justin Galle no I disagree... it’s pronounced tan them toes
Of course I’m the real FBI...
FBI Security Van but your not though
me with a sharpening stone and a western tanto - "Oh hey, look, a second tip to round over"
Every tanto is a drop point if you sharpen it enough.😂
Try sharpening it as two blades
We needed the combat "TANTO" of tantos Emerson CQC-15
FuckIt
Grind the tip flat
We all are going to use it as a screwdriver anyway.
4th
I say tanto but a lot of people say tanto..... 🤷♂️
😂
Hahaha
Thanks for clearing that up. 😉
the balance between Kurt's enthusiasm and Jamie's objetivity make them a great combination
If you hadn't shown the Recon 1, I would have drafted a sternly worded email!
Phew, dodged a bullet there.
@@BladeHQ Don't make one of the masters mad. He will bring great peril amoungst us all.
Tahhhnto. It's the same sound as you make in the name of both Japanese/samurai swords; katana and wakizashi.
And, Battle Hulk for that Bailout was perfect. 👏 Pocket clips...two is one and one is none?
The PM2 Tanto is such a beautiful/awesome knife! Great video once again Blade HQ (Jamie, Kurt, and everyone behind the scenes)
The ham-hands guy was saying it correct at first. It's pronounced the same as the lone ranger's partner.
I have a Cold Steel Magnum Tanto San Mai with a 9" blade I bought in the '80s. It has survived everything I have done with it, and it still sharpens up just like it was brand new. I have it taped upside down on my LBE strap so it's always there.
Kurt is correct. Not like the color tan the other way. Aaaaahhh the PM2 tanto! I love mine! You guys are heros for that exclusive.
How does it feel in the pocket?
Benchmade Bailout is one of the Best! That Spuderco shown is great
I've got a Cold Steel with two pocket clips on it. It's called the Grik, the reason why I have the two on there is because it fills out the handle some more. When you look at the knife you'll get it.

Very light weight, ultra smooth action.

Really informative and entertaining video! You guys never disappoint. Great job!
Just ordered my first tanto with the recon 1 in serrated tanto! Shows up Tuesday! Pumped!
"you wont be stabbing with it"...jamie says holding the COMBAT troodon 😂
Right! I've hammered mine through a 2×4 like it was nothing
Laughs in x-wing
I own multiple coldsteel recon tanto fixed blades, they just look so cool and are very good for hard use.

Should do one on traditional tanto now. I.e. James Williams designs, stedemon shy, kwaiken etc.
Just got my bailout today . I love it👌 its my first tanto and benchmade for that matter

Have the bailout and the recon tanto. That crkt is a pretty sweet knife. That would have to be my pick.

3:10 "Tantos have a high point strength" my tanto affectionately named pointless begs to differ with his, what we call, second tanto
The cool thing about tantos is that you can keep breaking them and they still remain a tanto. 😛
@@BladeHQ 🤣🤣🤣
My favorite folder with tanto blade is the cold Steel SR1.
Bailout is the most compelling. Too bad it’s so expensive. High price is a standard PM feature.
my favorite tanto is a camillus tanto in 8.25"(overall length) and I EDC the 6.75"(overall length) version.
Who doesn't love the paramilitary 2
Me
Ahh man, everytime i see you guys pull a microtech i wish otf's would be legal here in the netherlands
I have a Tanto Benchmade bug out, believe its close to 4in but it's so light it's in my pocket 24/7

I got the black full sized Ka-bar in Tanto, its pretty sweet.
I have an OG Recon Tanto in Carbon V. What a beautiful tank. I’ve chopped trees with it, chipped my car out of over flow lake ice and all sorts of other abusive things.
I actually bought the cold steel tanto at 4pm today. Coming in tomorrow, it's gonna be a great weekend! 🔪🔪🔪
ON BEHALF OF THE BHQ COMMUNITY I DEMAND BHQ APP
Dual-wield pocket clips. That's visionary!
Sometimes I will put a pocket clip on the opposite side of my spyderco harpy. You would be surprised at the extra grip you get from a clip being on both sides.
I bought the @COLDSTEEL recon tanto because of Kurt and this video. Thanks!
I got a tanto Recon 1 in CTS-XHP before they switched to S35VN. The CATRA of the XHP steel is superior, edge holding wise, to the S35VN. For that matter so is S30V. I like the fine edge the XHP takes.
I have been carrying a cold steel prolite tanto for two years and it is workhorse
I'm not usually a fan of Spyderco design, but that Tanto version is nice
Can we see the space machete next? It’s the case knives machete that was sent to the moon! Also a vid about left handed knives or ambidextrous knives would be very appreciated. PM2 tanto looks awesome!
Currently I do. It but I have put two pocket clips on my cold steel I am ambidextrous and I was carrying it off hand a lot.
the time kurt say dual welded a packet clip, lol. i deed .had it in a cold steel Talwar XL
Kurt: “Blade material is SK5, which is cool.”
WTF is SK5?
from what I gather, it's some kind of carbon steel, like 1080. Tougher than 1095, but less edge holding.
@@benfrary5644 it also has like all of the alloying elements, so its microstructure should be finer then that of 1095
A good Japanese carbon steel. 1085 ish. Hultafors uses it (supposed to be around 60HRC) and they are very tough knives. And very cheap
I'M SO *STOKED* ABOUT TANTO KNIVES!
I have that exact Kershaw Shuffle 2 and I love it so much. My BFF is a knife girl and she got it for me and I was kinda just like oh cool ya know neat but no big deal. It's SUCH a good little knife though! I use the hell out of it. The geometry makes it stupid easy to get a hair popping edge on it, it's good for just about any cutting task you will run into... it opens beers and it has a flathead/prybar on the back. I abuse it like a nuckle dragged ad-nauseaum and I still haven't messed it up at all. KAI plz make a ZT version or release it in 14c28n and G10 plz!
Para 3 tanto needs to be a thing
Kurt, come on man.... how are you gonna have a Boker kalashnikov shirt on and not pick a tanto version to show? Great budget friendly edc. Great show guys!
Could we agree the Spyderco PM2 Tanto is the best Tanto of the year.
Great banter! Tanto!
I was expecting to see the Kershaw blur in Tanto which is an amazing knife.
I got a Coldsteel Voyager XL Tanto, and its a beast ! 🗡️
tigh tac two tanto. lots of t's but its a plunger lock tanto running on smooth bearings. one of my number one knives. also its pronounced "tanto"
I'd probably go with the Bailout....mainly because of the aluminum scales. Wish they came in black or blue :)
Roses are red violets are blue I love knives and so do you.
I mean you are not wrong.
Fax
Thanks for commenting Blade Hq
I have the Kershaw shuffle 2 . I hated it at first. Then decide to give it a longer try and found it was a great utilitarian knife. Although I have yet to use the most over hyped "tool". Aka bottle opener.
The tanto pm2 looks super sexy even though I think a normal pm2 has a more useful blade shape.
Also the term for the tip grind that is missing on the bailout is called the kissaki on a traditional tanto/katana
Had a great laugh with the 'dual wielding pocket clip' idea!
Tonto is the Lone Ranger's sidekick! TAAANTO!!
Thanks. Good fun. Long A tanto? Either way...cool.
I think you should have mentioned the Kershaw groove. The best EDC tanto assisted folder.
Y'all. I got the Stedemon ZKC-03 in Jade CR10 for about $60. F-ing amazing. It's what I carry instead of my WE TI.
PM2 Tanto has quickly become my favorite spyderco! I love everything about ut
It's so pretty!
I need it..
trey menchaca I Highly recommend, definitely worth the price
How does it feel in the pocket?
Tanto, that's what I said. Keep on keepin on...
One qustion: protech malibu reverse tanto release date? Its been listed as coming soon for longer than coming soon.
My favorite knifes are the Bechmade 940 and that Baildout
You gotta think of the name like this. One's a knife. One's from the Lone Ranger.
Kurt pronounces it correctly (in the beginning), just like Tanto from the Lone Ranger.
Clutch! and 9mm! I would buy you a beer sir! Good job!
Thanks Dude
Of course I'm picking the PM2. And, it's Tahnto. Originally made from the tip of a broken katana or wakisashi.
First time viewer of your page. Awesome video and informative, 8:02 Benchmade Bailout, is the knife ambidextrous? Being left handed is hard to find a knife that will suit me. what’s the difference between this vs the 940? Which one do you recommend for light weight to carry around
