It is always the best part of the video when Nick gets face revealed accidentally... and he is *already* in the Batman mask ahead of time. The hero we deserve.
man the watchman reference was GREAT! I love watchman. I have the brass scale version with 154cm steel. Picked it up after getting the brass elementum which I was also impressed with! Paid 70$ and man for the money I'm super impressed even compared to my high end knives and customs. Fit and finish/blade center is perfect! Love this budget blade. Thanks for this disassembly video!
Less about the video, which was great, but more about the channel. I LOVE seeing the collaboration with BirdshotIV, Cedric and Ada, and Advanced Knife Bro. I'm sure there are others, but the cooperation is obvious from the viewer side and it makes you all better. Well done. Subbed to all.
That’s interesting that this knife had a lot of thread lock on it. My Praxis didn’t have any thread lock on it. The pivot screw actually became so loose that it the blade hit the liner after a short time. After a little blue thread lock it is now perfect and I love it.
Been waiting forever for this!! I know review is coming. I just got my Praxis yesterday ( a day earlier than expected thanks bladehq and usps) and I like it alot
Nick, I really appreciate your disassembly videos. Do you think you can do a disassembly video on the Liong Mag Warrior 1 V2? Thanks for the quality videos!
I decided to strip down my Praxis again while watching this to see if the blade has the steel ID as well (it does). In doing so, I realised that I'd made a terrible mistake when reassembling it last time. I had the bearing race around the wrong way on one side of the pivot. It's caused the centre of the race to push up. Going to take some gentle pressing to fix. edit: all good. fixed it.
Like I just said in my post, "So, apparently the video dropped this morning had a couple of things that I missed, and that's not great, so I've taken the video down. It was a while back, but still, not my best work. So I'll pick up another Dozier, re-review it, and post that video. In penance, I'll release a set of great budget knives, the Civivi Praxis and Baklash. Disassembly now, review at noon."

@@petergalione9704 the way the knife laws are written where I am a knife that gives 12 people the impression that its a switchblade is a switchblade. Despite the fact that I think it's really stupid and I've written my state representatives about "hey maybe let's dial back our ludicrous switchblade law maybe" I still try to follow it because if one of your coworkers knows or thinks you're carrying an illegal knife that's illegal because it's a murdery stabbing tool, it doesn't really matter that much that its a handy dandy box openy tool. So I get by on thumb studs and thumb holes. Frankly, I think the thumb holes are the most superior, but it's always tough when there's something like this that's an incredible value that I just have to sit out on.
Tired of hearing budget brand . Under $20 is budget imo . $40-$50 for a knife doesn’t seem like budget . These civivis are right next to my knives that cost hundreds and I can’t tell a difference but the metal and solid feel of some of the pricier knives can’t be beat . I prefer titanium solid frame lockers for heavy use and still don’t trust liner locks but never had one fail yet but then again when I need the right tool I grab it . I don’t think most knives should be batoned and beat the hell out of although some take it quite well . I m in the woods almost daily and lately the “budget” ganzo720 has been a workhorse for me at least . 👍👍. Plenty of good knives to choose from . For years it was a buck 279t hunter and one day I took the scales off the buck and realized it looks pretty cool with no scales .

Great overview of the breakdown and reassembly. My screen may be a little fuzzy but I think you got that first bearing on backwards. Thanks, Nick.

Thanks Nick, always incite full and entertaining which is “A Beautiful Thing” 😎😎😎

Great review and love your sense of humor. Just subscribed!
Wish it came with D2 steel and it be well worth the little extra cost, but I am really liking those liners and general shape.
Been waiting forever for this!! I know review is coming. I just got my Praxis yesterday ( a day earlier than expected thanks bladehq and usps) and I like it alot
Did I just hear a Watchmen reference?? WOW!! Awesome
DO NOT GET INTO WATCHMEN.
Great video, thanks again!

Nick gotta get on some of the new civivi they are releasing
Hi, nice disassembly. Any chance we could get a Civivi Wyvern dismantle video? 👍
Nice! Is it possible to separete the scales from the steel skeleton?
When u put the bearings back in which side should be up ? Can't see so goód . Thks

Nick does love "da booze", great disassemble vid.
Does anyone know which driver Nick is using? It looks pretty sweet.
I am in San Jose at a knife shop and a guy named Eugene working ther said he knew you and to say hi for him so hi
can we get a video of you doing this with the civivi elementum? or will it be exactly the same?
Automatic thumbs up when you see a Nick upload.
Hey nick new to your channel. You should try to get your hands on some of the civivi vg10 versions they got out now.
What happened to the Dozier review? I saw it uploaded a while ago and when I went to find it right now it doesn’t exist...
Like I just said in my post, "So, apparently the video dropped this morning had a couple of things that I missed, and that's not great, so I've taken the video down.

Wellp okay then,thanks Nick!
@@NickShabazz ha ha was able to view it before you took it down.. can't wait to see the re review..
@@Keith_the_knife_freak 423 people watched it including us .
@@NickShabazz But but but , Nick , I had the perfect comment , The scales flex like the BM Bugouts which costs 5 times as much !
Nice job😀
I was wondering where the Peshkoff screwdriver is available?
I must have missed the video. Thank you.
Hey Nick. Which of your gems would you recommend over the other (money not a factor), TRM Neutron or WE Wisp?
Ooof. Apples and Oranges. But for what it's worth, I own a Neutron, not a Wisp.
@@NickShabazz thanks Nick. Just looking into smaller, slicy, well-built folders and those two keep coming up. Thanks for your input
Mmm, baklava is lovely.
What size are the torx screws on the Backlash? I've changed out the pocket clip screws and I also want to change out the other knife screws.
You forgot to change again after work Nick?
Lubrication of loving the legacy of Nick Shabazz
Ahh... Knife porn.
What happened with the Ka-Bar Dozier video just now?
I was watching that!

Hey nick where you buy the small prybar? And whats the name please
Have you ever used tap fluid in a pinch as a permanent lubricant?
Nope, just because I don't have tap fluid around.
Should have saved this one for an easter episode.
Civivi, please make a smaller knife!
One without a flipper so I can carry it!
Peter Galione they will!!
Travis W Rigg why can’t you carry a flipper?

@mph seti Where I am is also one of the easiest places to get a CCW permit. So. Yeah. It's majorly silly
God damnit Nick! Don't make me buy more knives.
