Finally ordered my Guardian! It's been on my radar for the past year ever since I saw it on "The Knife Junkie" podcast and, I'm not done! In my humble opinion, you guys make some of the best personal defense EDC knives out there... Excellent, affordable quality, that's "rare" these days!❤
Hey brother, I have a nightguard and guardian on order (along with others) that I should be getting soon. I usually use a KME sharpening system on my blades but the angle and purpose on these is a little different than what I'm used to. I want to keep the angle and sharpness as you've intended. I know you are extremely busy but is there any chance that you could show a vid of how you sharpen these two blades so that I can maintain them properly? I already bought a couple of those cbn pocket hone sharpeners that you recommend for field touch ups that is probably great for the Bushman that I have on order but I'd love to see the best way to maintain the Guardian/Nightguard with a fixed angle system. I do a polished edge on my Creely Mako which is currently my daily driver but I know that's not the best for the Guard series with their steep angle. Detail on the grit levels would be appreciated, the KME goes to 1500 then the strops but I think that you stop around 1000 on your blades? Love your work and vids, best wishes to you and Camera Wife.
Sometimes you gotta give a slice of “don’t touch me” to get your point across. You are awesome Tim! (I know it’s really camera wife making it so good) Stay sharp TKellians!!!
Combatant FTMFW 🔥🔥🔥#AbsolutelyDevastating #SuperSlicey Looks like you've slimmed down since that video was filmed - no doubt because you've been working non-stop to deliver the best blades on Earth
To me that depends on your training and your preferences. Retention is definitely better with a ring style blade, and it’s easier to conceal a one without it and make transitions from forward to reverse grips.
Yes they will, I’m working to increase the batch sizes also. I announce they dates they will drop for preorder through the newsletter. The signup is on the contact form of the website.
For you having to demonstrate how sharp your knives are could be considered disrespectful BUT for me and maybe others it's a sign of respect for the quality of knives you make.
Awesome blades and interesting test. Good stuff. However, you state that one would lose consciousness by a brachial cut in 5 seconds. An artery pumping out for five seconds say ten beats wouldn't do it. I suggest you read Contemporary Knife Targeting, by Janish and Grosz. Those figures that you read all the time comes from Fairbain in WW2. The time for unconsciousness with a brachial cut is closer the two and a half minutes. Shock and decreased abilities about 1 1/2 minutes. No disrespect meant. Your knife designs are top drawer. Cheers
TKell knives are awesome, I want all of them! Thank you, for your information!
Your blades and their capabilities...WOW!
Love thy neighbor 😂😂😂 those are some really wicked cuts, puts the TKell phrase “Slicey” into perspective!
Your knives are just wicked sharp. Love them man.
Thank you brother.
Just made my 3rd TKell purchase. This time an ops Nighthawk from Sharp Things OkC
Thank you for your orders!
This is one of my favorite knife demo videos. It really shows the effectiveness of these blades. Outstanding blades!
Thank you Bill!
Now that the extended grips are out The Guardian is on the menu for next buy !
Very cool! Now I need a Combatant! It will keel! Thanks Tim! ⚔️💪
I love mine, It is my EDC over all others! I like it because you can use it to cut anything and also makes an awesome self defense tool.

I really appreciate that. Thank you so much for your order!
@@TkellKnives very much "worth" the wait!
That's why I carry a Tkell knife and recommend them to others. Not for bushcraft but for survival on the mean streets. Good video Tim.
Thank you brother. I’m honored you carry my knife.

I also have a KME and would love a video on sharpening with a system like the KME
Best blades on the planet....
I’m honored sir.
@@TkellKnives the Truth is the truth..
Agreed
Love my Tkell blades.
Thank you very much.
Nice cuts! I remember the previous video. This one is pretty awesome, too. 👍👍 🇺🇲🇺🇲
Thank you sir.

You are awesome Tim! (I know it’s really camera wife making it so good) Stay sharp TKellians!!!
Now that’s funny!
Thank you Chad, we make good team. It helps a lot to have my best friend also be my wife.

I do love the combatant myself.
You’re right I have dropped a pretty good amount of weight since then. Thank you 🙏
Amazing
Do you have those hats on the website 🤞🏼🤞🏼
No let me see if I have any left. I ordered a small batch for blade.
I love my Combatant! I tell everyone that these blades are 100% USA made by a Vet with love and knowledge.
Thank you brother.
@@TkellKnives Your very welcome brother!!!
I'm curious what is better for sec defense a your knife with the ring or a standard handle?
To me that depends on your training and your preferences. Retention is definitely better with a ring style blade, and it’s easier to conceal a one without it and make transitions from forward to reverse grips.
The end 😂😂😂
Still rocking my Guardian and you'll see a Gideon V3 order from me the moment you start preorders.
I’m trying to get them out lol
@@TkellKnives Got the hats in as well I see, thank you
Dammmmm the guardian

Yes they will, I’m working to increase the batch sizes also. I announce they dates they will drop for preorder through the newsletter. The signup is on the contact form of the website.
Love it

T Kell knives bring the nuclear option to the table...

I was only off by 85 seconds, give or take a min or two. Thank you for feedback! No disrespect taken.
if it cuts like that would have no problem slicing through the thickest hair of a dangerous animal to get to the meat
