    Out of all the knife reviewers no disrespect to the others but I look forward to yours more just because of videos like this. Very down to earth and doesn't feel like your always trying to sell a product to us. Thank you for always being real.

      I completely agree, this is the only channel that has more then a 1000 subs that don't feel shilly with every post. Not saying they are but its always about the next kizer and all the "links"... I respect making people making a buck but it's getting totally out of hand on most channels.

      I also look at every store I go into for knives, the hardware stores here have nothing good I like going to bass pro our sportsman's warehouse. I got a tool box from harbor freight for my knifes mostly to lock them up from the kids and I really like it !

    Yeah, depressing, isn't it. All the places we used to be able to grab a basic good knife at, have reduced the quantity and quality of knife availability, and yes, I keep a major portion of my knives in a nice wooden tool box my kids got me several years ago. Good video, guys. Thanks

    The insulation knife, that style is designed for industrial insulation that comes in squares about a foot thick.

      @knifeguy9134 ปีที่แล้ว

      I work in a mobile home manufacturing plant and we have 106 inch about 8 inch thick piece of insulation that goes in between studs every 16 inches and that long blade would help cut through it but how long will that edge last cutting through the fiberglass.

    As a working carpenter I normally carry a drop point or clip point style blade. Currently carrying a "Freek" with a large deep carry clip off my CLA. No matter what the pocket knife is I have either the Leatherman Charge tti or the Wave+on my belt.

    My Lowes has a rather lackluster knife selection as well. They just have a few CRKT, Gerber, Leatherman, and Outdoor Edge like yours has. They also have a few Craftsman box cutters and carpenter knives and those Crescent, Lennox and Kobalt knives.
    Btw, I got that Work Sharp electric sharpener for my birthday last year. Love that thing!

    There isn’t a Lowe’s near enough to me to go shopping but there is a Home Depot less than a mile from my home. My knife collection is stored in two Husky brand 16 inch plastic tool boxes. I was planning on buying a larger portable tool box with 3-4 drawers but I literally don’t have enough space for one.

    The strangest thing about this video to me is the locked items. Cardboard and plastic packaging right? Using a dozen unlocked items within reach of the locked items those would be off the pegs. As my dad said “Locks just keep honest people honest.” If they want to lock them down… Even Walmart puts them in a case. 😂

    I saw a Cresent brand hammer at THD today, so it's not exclusive to Lowe's. In the 80's I did a Shiit-Ton of residential & commercial insulation & we would use blades like the one here to chink (stuff) strips of insulation into the door and window cracks, but ours were old kitchen knives from Goodwill or where ever! Menards has a better knife selection.
    Just a Suggestion: The next time you go window shopping for knives, leave Frankie at home with the Kidz! ~ LoL
