    Jacob Lundquist = the size of the oval is large so you can get your finger in there! That is my design language 100% hahaha!

    Have one of each color. Have over 100 pocket knives. Have been collecting/using for over 20 years. This is, IMO, the finest EDC knife I’ve ever come across. Jacob, you’re a magician……congrats on creating an affordable masterpiece. 🏆

    If I didn't pick up the Militaw a few months ago, I would need one of these. Lundquist designed is really nice, but I'm just still in love with Jonathan Style's Militaw. Too many bangers, not enough money

    I just bought that one and the carbon fiber and satin nitro blade, thought about swapping the satin blade with the black to preserve the black blade finish and daily drive the knife.

    SOLD! Thanks for the great review. I love the sneaky lefty friendly clip with filler tab! All the little details really add up. I just received the Kizer Sheepdog S35VN with Nebula & Clutch lock and it is incredibly recommendable. New to it, but really impressed with the brand!

    The Varatas has been on my list for sometime. When I saw that they were releasing this version, I jumped on it immediately! Blacked out fanboy! This is a well designed knife, and I really enjoy it!

  • @lumntoob999
    @lumntoob999 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Two of the companies producing the most amount of knives I want right now are, #1 is easily Kizer but also Vosteed is making some cool knives that I really like too. There has to be at least 5 knives I want right now from Kizer, a high end drop bear (blue fat carbon and elmax or an s45v version), the super cool momo, dogfish, varatas, feist in 4v, then the coming soon kizer beyond looks excellent for the money. Sure there are more desirable knives out there but at least for stuff cheap enough to not feel bad about using, Kizer can’t be beat right now. I also love to see them using so many cool steels too, they are making it affordable to be able to try them but also doing it with awesome design. I just hope they keep coming out with a fair share of front flippers, I love a well designed front flipper and kizer has killed it with them so far. If I could only buy from one knife company for 2024 I would call it right now with kizer.

  • @hificat101
    @hificat101 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Have the big Chinese manufacturers cracked the code on controlled drop of a blade? I just recently picked up a premium Vosteed Nightshade, and it closes like I always imagined a Herman knife would. Always makes me smile. If I could see one and determine if I can reverse flick it, I might buy one. I only have about 3 knives I can reverse flick (about 4% of my collection). The only one I can reliably reverse flick is my Divo Stout.

    @metal_complex, I've resigned myself to my fate as a lefty. With the exception of Cold Steel, manufacturers are gonna keep kicking me in the nuts. I'm at peace with that. That said, you know of members of the knife community who are good at/teaching how to do my own addition of left pocket clip holes in various materials? I'm a soft handed fancy lad- I'll destroy an innocent knife if I don't consult an expert first.

    Why do you always call it the benchmade griptilian, when its completely not? Is it made or partnered with benchmade? It doesn't even look anything like the griptilian. Is it even the same designer? Please tell me why. Thanks

    • @peen2804
      @peen2804 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      the griptilian is a benchmade knife design. hogue makes the RSK which is by the same designer as the most popular version of the benchade griptilian, doug ritter, and is for all intents and purposes a hogue griptilian. so some people still call it that. as to why MC specifically calls it a benchmade griptilian no one has any idea hes done it for literal years/
