I'd pick the Hinderer , and hide the socom somewhere on my person and tell people I only had one. That's right , I would lie, and cheat . We're talking about the apocalypse here!!
LOL always an entertaining comment 🤣🤣
Me too mate lol
Love that strategy .🖕to the rules .
Legit move, yo
First pick :: axe - second pick : saw - third pick : large fixed blade - fourth, and last, pick : a folder, probably AD-10.
i agree with most of it. id probably carry a lighter folder, thinner, specifically thinner behind the edge for finer tasks although I do love the AD-10 and it is excellent for its size and thickness, maybe the quietcarry waypoint or TRM Atom. very good choices all around. the AD-10 is extremely Robust and i would perfer a Tri-Ad lock in an apocalyptic situation
I like the ad 20 for strength and ease of manipulation
Have any of you seen the new SOG Seal XR Flipper yet? That knife was made for the apocalypse 💯❤🇺🇸💪❗
First pick: Shotgun
Second pick: Pistol
Third pick: fixed blade with a dagger style blade for stability while stabbing
@@8dollars276 Nobody is here
"Whats that in the distance dad?" "They used to call that ACE Hardware son", he said with a frown. Great video MC, nice knife spread
Probably a torx bit somewhere...
Wasn’t on the table but my choice for an Apocalyptic folder would be the Medford “Praetorian Ti”. Absolute Beast!
For what it's worth my AD10 is still my "one knife".. Mine is the hollow ground gen 1, the lock is what it is, and the S35VN is both robust and field sharpenable. My Hinderers are sad about it, but that's where I land.
I agree 100%...They are bomb proof, especially with their locking systems.I chose The Recon 1 or SR1!!
Folding knife I would take a Cold Steel Recon 1 or SR1 💯 both Tanto Blade
I chose not to live in a post apocalyptic world without omega springs.
So they can break and have a useless benchmade... i love benchmade though haha
You can make ur own omegas with spring wire... ;x
I like how people say “when or if” the omega springs break.....I’ve never heard or even had that happen to me and I’ve had my 551-1 for over 4 years and use it for everything and have never ever had anything get close to going out.
@@urmailingalen So you like when people say that, but have never heard of it? Alright.
I’d take my cold steel Spartan, and a AD15 concealed.
If I could only take one folder in the situation you described it would be the Cold Steel Rajah II.
It's incredibly strong, it can chop, it can pry, easy to sharpen, fast one handed deployment and it has a lot of reach.
It would be perfect for building shelters, wood processing, self-defense and you wouldn't have to worry about it failing in any way.
The Socom Elite has been my first choice ever since I layed hands on one. A very close second is my Chris Reeve Inkosi.
Since you mentioned prying with this knife, I would throw out any Spyderco folder because of the large thumb hole through the thickest part of the blade near the most stressed point on the blade and along the plunge line of the grind. That seems like an obvious potential point of failure.
Great narrowing down episode.👏 I know you based the selections on what you had in your collection. I would recommend you add some traditional pocket knives to your collection. It has a strong, simple mechanism that worked for the prior generations. They are simple, durable, reliable, and many have multiple blades. Throw a camp knife, or Scout knife into your pocket, & you have quite a few different things in a small package. In the same vein, a multi tool like the Leatherman wave would add more options. Even an old school Stockman had multiple blades, and it fits in your pocket. Some traditionals even come with a lockback, or liner lock. Yeah, they aren't huge, and most are not one handed opening,
but that's why you carry, or find a fixed blade knife for all the tough choirs. Yes I know fixed blades are another episode. A pocket knife will be with you when you bug out, if you remember to wear clothes 🤔, because it's already in your pocket. Barring the end of the world, the knife you would have in an emergency is the one you already have on you. Rarely do you get a chance, or much time to ponder over what knife to take. Look how long it took you to narrow down your collection to one knife. That's why people make up Bugout bags. Mrs. Complex, "Honey, come on, we gotta leave Now!"
"Hold on, I've almost narrowed it down to which Hinderer to leave behind. " 🤣
I know it's just a fun way to narrow down your collection to one knife. Super strength isn't needed in most pocket/folding knife situations. Knowing when to use a fixed blade, or some other tool, as opposed to pushing a pocket knife beyond its limit would be a more logical approach, rather than trying to get the toughest, strongest, one knife forever type of knife for an imaginary situation that never happens. Something that fits in your pocket, and can cut whatever you need it to cut without breaking down, or needing special tools like a torx bit, is all you need a pocket knife to do.
l will never be down to one knife as long as I am a free man. If that point ever comes to where I only have one knife, I will make another knife, or buy a knife if money still exists. ⚔
Williams Knife Life :- Well said!
I'd probably have to go with the Shaman...unless there's a Cold Steel of some description there on your table.
For a folder,I would probably go with a Cold Steel SR1 or a large or XL Cold Steel Recon 1(XHP Steel preferable). In a fixed blade, I would take a Miller Brothers knife (at least 7 inches in length) and a Katana sword with Zwear Pm Steel.
My choice is the cold steel espada xl because if the blade staps you still have a blade longer than most knives and you can take the broken tip and maje a spear. This is obviously the correct choice.
Cold Steel AD10 or SR1. Third choice Recon 1. I would add a Hogue Ritter RSK.
I've given this some thought already. I'd take my recon 1.
AD10, but SR1 is a close second followed by the Recon 1
Little pocket jewelry and the lock is useless. It was on my Recon 1. If it is a Tri-ad lock Knive, than one with liners.
@@rustyknifelover4463 Great choices.
@@lionknives3 I didn't even know there was a non triad lock model.
@@abc456f really? The Recon 1 with the let's say Axis lock.
Fixed knives aside (there are actually are the first choice here) I'd take Cold Steel AD-15. It has adequate size, weight, durable enough blade and handle. The most important thing is its lock, which is super easy to clean and will still continue working no matter what. Socom is probably even more durable and better protected from dirt, but once gunk gets into the action you are doomed to fiddle with a ton of tiny torx screws. I once tried to disassemble some device with tiny screw heads, that were splashed with varnish. I must say, I won't trust my life to anything that cannot be cleaned with an application of force and a tiny help of small iron spike or nail.
MC, I would go with my Benchmade Osborne Proxy. I got on you for not including it in the best titanium flipper video and for all the same reasons, I would take the Proxy with me until the end. It is as close to a folding fix blade that I have seen.
It’s stout, I can baton with it and still do delicate work. It has a great blade length that makes it functional for so many tasks and still folds to a reasonable size. I have not found a better all-around knife.
A Para3 is my daily pocket carry, but my Proxy is always close by in my bag and ready if needed.
@ 20:09 Tip: keep the blade open when not being "edc'd" and therll be no tension on the spring and the action will, be preserved for a longer time
I'm there with you about the PM2 weak tip. I bent mine (S35VN) cutting into a Federal 9mm SD load box. The plastic box bent it slightly while I was cutting the label. Sure I fixed it with a stone and it's fine now, I was annoyed at how weak it was.
I'd go with my Shaman or ZT 0350. If I couldn't take a fixed blade that is
cercaz :- Both of those knives would be my choices as well. (Among two or three others).
Bro I broke mine removing a car fuse. My Native five in 35vn is so much thicker and easier to carry.
I got the final three right, but I had no idea which of them you would choose. Very entertaining video, keep it up!
I'm a huge fan of the Rat-1 though the Homefront is super easy to clean on the fly. On the budget side of course I'd have to choose one of those... If that isn't an issue?? The Freek all the way! That knife was made specifically for me. Everything about it is on point imo.
Full-size Benchmade Rukus (with spare omega springs, although I have MANY Benchmade Axis Lock knives, and I have NEVER HAD ONE BREAK)
I might have missed it in the vid, but do you currently not have any cold steel knives other than the tuff? I thought it was youtube knife reviewer law that you had to own a code 4 & ad-10.
Haha ya the tuff lite is the only one currently 👍
You're going to choose the Microtech Socom.
I didn't cheat, you can't prove it.
I’d probably go with a Shaman, or more likely a Cold Steel Recon 1 Spear point, although I prefer the strength of the Recon 1 Tanto more. They are the only two non-American knives I own. I’m waiting for a Microtech Socom Elite to become available. I didn’t even realize it was your top pick. So we agree on 2/3 of the final 3. I just think the Recon 1 is a beast.
3 knives id pick. USMC Ka-bar, a buck 119, and any thicker bladed folding knife
I'm not sure that aa single broken Omega spring would completely disable a Benchmade knife. I've never had one break.
I have abused the hell out of benchmade's for years and never had a omega spring break. I always wondered how guys were breaking them. I've used them for everything from batoning wood to dressing deer. What were you doing when yours broke? Great video.
I'm the same way. I have a couple that are over 10 years old on the same springs with thousands of deployments, still rock solid
@@badmunkyedc1 Most that talk about omega springs are just repeating what they've heard.
I’d probably go for a large crk with a partial serrations. I usually carry the small and it’s the perfect size for me but might as well go a little bigger.. I don’t usually like serrated blades either but I’d image they’d come in handy and the crk ones look pretty easy to sharpen
My personal choice would be the crk umnumzaan because of the simplicity, robustness, balanced steel, and lack of Torx altogether. I can guarantee it’ll be easier to find hex than torx. Of those on the table though I’m split between the shaman and the home front for durability
Apocalypse Axis omega spring failure fix: Open the knife and engage the lock. Wedge a small bolt behind the lock bar and the knife body. Make a rudimentary sheath. It's a fixed blade after that. Thought about this while handling my Adamas while having apocalyptic fantasies.
Personally I would go with the ADV tacbutcher and the hinderer as a back up. Gotta feeling in an apocalypse scenario the adv would be an incredibly hard use tool for prying doors open or taking the heads off of zombies.
Cold steel 4max, ad10 or ultimate hunter best choices for shtf. IMO
I’d take an AD-10, recon 1 or maybe a 4 max. Gotta get my hands on a SOCOM someday though.
The knowledge and skills of the person count for as much of the knife’s performance as its materials and construction. I can’t for the life of me remember the name of the video, or else I’d link it, but there’s a dude here on TH-cam who more or less starts society over from the beginning out in the woods using a Victoronox Huntsman, which is a $50 slip joint. He carves a baton and some wedges, then scores the top of a log he wants to split with the tiny saw. The baton and wedges do all of the heavy impact work needed to split the log. He creates rope out of roots, and tinder by peeling away bark. In almost every case he uses his keychain knife to create a larger, sturdier tool out of his surroundings which he then does his heavy work with.
There’s also the point that slip joint knives, made of inferior steels, were the universal folding EDC of all tradesmen for hundreds of years before the phrase “EDC” was ever first spoken or written. So I think pretty much any modern folding knife with even half-assed construction should do pretty well, so long as it had a good blade length and the person using it had training in survival.
The shaman, hinderer and socom would be a tough choice for me! I have the shaman s30v and two tone orange/carbon fiber manual socom in cts-204p (wish the inserts were like yours and on the scarab) and that would be a insanely hard choice but I would probably go with the shaman for the spydie hole alone. Lol. otfs get a bad rep for not being strong but I've found that with quality otfs they are extremely strong. My ultratech is one of my primary edc's and I've abused that thing. I do tree removal and was climbing, chipping and dragging brush and everything else and it actually got some bigger peices of saw dust in it and it failed a couple times. Even then I just kinda whipped it the rest of the way open. Now i carry my LUDT/spydercos if I think it's going to be a dirty day. It's tough and I've pushed it pretty hard and was surprised how good and strong it is. I would probably use my hydra single action otf(like a smaller halo) even more in a situation like that as it seems insanely strong and the spring tension is way stronger. so i for a otf that's what I would prefer.
Washers (I'm ok with d2) but s35vn, a 154 cm/cpm should be good enough. Some kind of backlock. Enough blade. Probably liners/g10. Sounds pretty Cold Steel, surprisingly
It depends upon zombie walking speed. Overall, I'd probably choose something with an easily sharpened blade that won't rust from all the zombie/werewolf blood. I'd also avoid anything with excess moving parts and/or non-standard fittings.
Also, a grippy G10 handle.
Any of the top 3 is at it's best option but honestly I would just go with an Emerson with wave. I would assume anytime I need to pull out my knife is with urgency. If we are just considering pocket knives.
What do you think about the Hoback Husky, and its Nitro- V blade steel?
I've broken two omega springs, its not too hard to make your own with some music wire from the Ace Hardware. Either way, I doubt it would change the outcome (I do like that Super Freek though). When Spyderco releases the tanto PM2 it might be a top contender for me, I'll make do with the Shaman until then.
You have an amazing collection of folders, OTF and autos... but I'd have to say if I had to go live in the woods, I'd bring my Benchmade 202 Leuku in CPM-3V... but if I had to choose a folder, I'd probably buy a Cold Steel SR1 Tanto or a 4-Max... maybe even a AD-10.
I would look for a tough steel with a 60hrc heat treatment or less with a thick grind.
Out of what I actually own... it'd probably be my Benchmade 810 contego. Other than that, I'd probably just take my M4 Shaman or my budget XM-18 aka my ZT0562
For end of the world? Not a folder, i would pick my gi tanto - full tang in the hand gives me alot more confidence. But if it has to be folder, then adamas or one of cold steels - recon 1 or spartan.
Lol I really like your apocalypse scenario knife reviews. Especially post 2020 😂. Please do more. Do a “survive in the woods” edition
In my opinion if o had to choose one pocket knife for the apocalypse out of the knives I own it would probably be my buck 110. It’s not a nice as others I own and doesn’t have even as great as materials used but it has always served me well and I’ve used it many times hunting, fishing, hiking, and kayaking and it has never once let me down.
I always carry 3 knives minimum at any given time. I have a huge collection. I alternate frequently. However, my Zero Tolerance ZT0308 NEVER leaves my side. I alternate the other two or I carry more. Depending on circumstances. With that being said, My 3 choices for the Apocalypse are the Zero Tolerance ZT0308, Cold Steel 4-Max and my Cold Steel AD-10. These are the knives I would choose out of my collection for "The Apocalypse".
I have other choices for "Fixed Blade" knives for the Apocalypse as well. But this wasn't that type of video.
I carried a Benchmade AFO for 7 years in some absolutely beautiful places. Don't discount that button lock. It's now 17 years old and still has the original spring. Also saw a lot of Auto Strykers, TR3s, TR4s and the Gerber in those nice places. If ther spring breaks take it out and you gave a button lock.
Out of all the knives you had I'd do the Hinderer. That Spanto would do you much better than the Socom blade. You'd be amazed how often you'll use your knife for non knife stuff. I'd send you a pic if I had Instagram. Great and entertaining video though.
But wouldnt the knofe still lock up even with one omega spring? Not the best thing ever but still both would have to fail for the blade to not lock up
Actually carrying my Socom today! Such a great knife! I thought you were going to pick the Shaman or XM-24.
From the second I seen all the knives on the table those were my top 2. I would have picked the black one. But you made great points bout the socom.
At 01: 50, my guess is the extreme upper left corner. Lets find out! If I were to chose one knife, it would be the Artisan Cutlery Osprey. Of course, I wouldn't chose one knife because I'd also have the CRKT Pilar for small tasks. Ever pick a splinter with a 4 inch cleaver? Neither have I. As it is...I carry the Osprey (in orange G10), a large Cold Steel Voyager that I (carefully) ground down to a 3.5 inch drop point, and the Pilar. From this collection though, I'd take the Sheepdog and Maxamet...hands down.
Edit: LOL! Rather amusing that my guess was the first one in the would-not-carry pile.
Edit 2: No way in hell would I use my knife as a pry bar or hammer. I'd have a mini pry bar and any solid object can be used as a hammer. A knife is for stabbing, slicing and carving...nothing else.
Edit 3: Even a light coat of oil that you get from the side of your nose or ear lobe (as disturbing as that sounds) would be enough to prevent corrosion on a D2 blade. Would it discolour from use? Oh, I'm sure of that. Would it actually rust? No, it would not and that's what really matters. Other than the fact that it's so wear resistant on the stone, D2 would be a fine blade steel for the apocalypse.
Edit 4: If you have a knife that has Torx fittings, you could always carry a small screwdriver kit with Torx tips in a pouch with your sharpening stone and for knife maintenance.
I would have to give my nod to the Extrema Ratio Rao!
guess: Either the super freak, shaman, para 3, crooked river or the hinderer. possibly even the praxus
Edit: i forgot about the socom elite, that would have been one of my picks, also i am shocked at just how little trust u have in omega springs. Realy thought the freak would be your pick.
i think its useful from the fact that it forces you to acknowledge what the best knife is, that company will get many more sales
Liner lock !?!? You picked a liner lock for your apocalypse knife? Huh......
I just picked up the SOG Seal XR Flipper & even though it has an "AXIS" style lock I'd choose this knife !! I've never had an omega spring break on me yet & if it's such a huge problem why would Benchmade & other's choose to stay with the lock bar or "AXIS" lock?
I think you might have hit the quarantine limit lol. What a ramble
That was painfully the right choice. The XM-24 is what my materialistic side wanted, but for the apocalypse, the Socom had to take it. Aside from the fact that to my knowledge, it’s the one that comes with more actual real life static proof (abuse videos that defy reason of resilience) that it’s gonna outlive your ability to be abused and still function perfect. Plus I’ve never seen a knife that had more of almost seeming like it’s alive when you go to open it. The smallest thumb nudge, not even a proper leveraged thumb flick, will cause the blade to rotate out as if it’s been waiting for that moment it’s whole life. Like “Here Sir!” 😂
Great video. It definitely vouched for your “I like him. He thinks like me, therefore he’s a genius” effect.
Paused to predict the answer.
I would say its the XM-24, but that might be to obvious. The Waypoint can't rust, so that would be a good contender. But I'm going to make my guess the Shaman.
^This guy is using his head^ 😉
@@metal_complex well I was wrong but I came sorta close.
I love Microtech, definately a solid choice.
I love my LUDT and Ultratechs. I really want to love to new Socom Elites but I've personally had the worst luck with them. My auto socom elite had the spring break at 2 weeks old, of course microtech took care of me and fixed it. But my confidence was damaged.
My manual Socom elite came with a stripped out screw and terrible lock stick with like 80% lockup.
I know I've just been unlucky and I think about trying another one every couple weeks. There is so much I love about the Socom elite, the deployment is amazing, external locking lugs, beefy lock bar and great ergonomics. Plus its just dead sexy. And they've always honored my warranties. But two lemons in a row will sour any knife.
Cold Steel Trail Master in San Mai III! If it has to fold, then Espada XL... I think the Trail Master is more than capable of doing just about anything you need it to do. Including getting through zombie skull's with ease. 😁👌
Resolute Mark III by Gough Custom.
Its custom made by the man himself, in his CNC workshop, with an insane heat treat and precise tolerances. Its good for any environment from the desert to the Antarctic Survey.
Do you have a how to Spidey flip video? Try as I may, I can’t get great at it and you obviously have it mastered.
For apocalyptic world, Medford USMC Fighter Flipper...all other knives pale in comparison. Purpose built for survival and self defense, almost impossible to break.
Demko AD 20/20.5 for and folder. Bark river knives ultralight bushcrafter for a fixed blade
32:37
You may not be able to call Rick Hinderer, but if you can make your way to him, I’m sure he’ll be there and doing just fine. And glad to swap out your insert.
33:22
“max phallic size”
How did it know?
I’ve been carrying the Super Freek on Frac jobs in west Texas for the last three years. It’s as close to the apocalypse as you can imagine. Endless dirt/ sand, chemicals, toxic produced water. I’ve cut through endless 12” tpu hoses, thick discharge hoses. Zero flaws.
I would knock out any Spyderco knife because of the large hole the thickest portion of the most stressed part of the blade when prying.
You gotta go with the Hinderer. Cuz you just know the first person you see in like 7 years is gonna be like “tip down?? gtfoh” 😂
Chris Mays 😆😆😆😆
Probably the socom elite... Or a XM-18. I would do the ti CRKT homefront I think it is because it is easy to disassemble. Haha got it right. I retract my statement on the homefront because of the washers.
Clearly you need a big boy for the apocalypse something useful for stabbing zombies. Don't know the exact models but I'm guessing you would want a big blade and something with a full grip that's equally stabby and slicey
MC Did you see how X-Ring destroyed the tip of a Tanto Socom?! I was shocked that the strongest of the blade shapes broke. But yeah.
Benchmade 940 because its basically unbreakable but from the knives I own right now probably my tactical spyderco endura 4
I for sure thought it would be the Hinderer...not going to lie. I am a little surprised you didn't include a Cold Steel in this vid, but I enjoyed the video very much. Thanks.
Wouldn't pick a folder for the apocalypse, but if I had to, it would be my Adamas. If I could pick any knife, it would be an ESEE 5 or ESEE Jungalas.
A proper apocalypse knife would HAVE to be a fixed blade, all of these would make a good secondary if you needed one
Man, I don’t know where you find these knifes in your collection. I have wanted a Microtech for decades.
On the table the Socom Elite, or Spyderco Shaman for me.
Im leaning towards my AD10 and or my ZT0393. Fun video
Great video ! 👍 So , when you’re headed out the door to face the Apocalypse, you gotta have super duper indestructible pockets ? 😂 just kidding
If i were in the apocalypse, and i only had ONE knife, then i would treat it relatively carefully no matter what knife it was... The MKM Colvera Titanium was on sale earlier today, and i managed to grab the last one they had. I absolutely LOVE that blade shape, and as long as the ball bearings last, this may be the last folding knife i ever buy..! Some of the knives in this video looked really nice too - but $700 is OUT of my price range, LOL!
I also got the Leatherman Wave+ the other day, and it is of course not the "ultimate apocalypse knife", but with all those tools in such a small package, it may be the "ultimate apocalypse multitool". And it should last a really long time as long as it is not abused too much.
In case anyone wonders why i get these now... Yes, it is because of Putin. Im normally not a big knife guy, but if you count the Leatherman, i have bought 3 this last week, LOL! The last one is a big 22,5cm/8,85" Brusletto "Villmarka Stor" (Norwegian brand that has been making knives since 1896). So i think thats all the knives i need for an apocalypse 😂
warning: this is for fun
if i had to chose i would get something that has good edge retension, not many parts so easy to fix if needed, good handle material like g-10 feels good on my hand and it is fast to open. so maby something like ti-lite or spyderco. just my opinion.
edit: forgot to say if ti-lite 6 inch version.
I just wish the socom elite was a little thicker at the end. It would be perfect
I picked the shaman and the hinderer... didn’t see the socom coming lol
Then a frame lock or compression lock would be the best i like my manix 2xl bit its got a spring
How are Triads looks different from lock backs?
The way it locks into place has 3 points of contact. While back locks are very strong and can withstand a large amount of force, the triad lock is definitely stronger, and requires more force to disengage. It's basically impossible to fail a triad lock with natural human force.
Would like to see a review of BM Turret
This is just pure dumb fun. I absolutely loved this one man. Made my day
I'd probably take the Socom Elite first and tied for second would be Super Freek and Hogue Ritter RSK MK1 G2.
GREAT choice my friend .
If I had to choose from my collection it would have to be the socom bravo tanto...what a beast it is !
It would be pretty funny if during the apocalypse someone only had opinel knives and he had to get by with an opinel knife
Another great vid!!!lots of great points
Only folders I'd choose would be benchmade freek, coldsteel 4 maxx, coldsteel recon 1, spyderco shaman, Ontario rat 1, coldsteel sr1,
The knife i carry now would be my choice an its coldsteel spartan an my large g10 Espada they are what I carry because they are bomb proof if it was a knife I don't own it would be a AD10 so that said coldsteel is hard to beat in price an tuffness an far as liner lock knives suck had 2 fail on me an frame is a fancy liner I would take a button lock over frame an liner but I only know my experience as a vet an mechanic an ive destroyed a lot of knives but probably lost more bearing would depend on free floating or caged would never go with floating anyway thats my opinion I commented from middle of video out of table I would take shaman that spyderco is nice but expensive for my taste nice video idea
Haven’t watched the video yet but guessing it has to be that centerpiece XM-24.
i mean... it cant not be a hinderer right? like theyre nukeproof and carryable at the same time. if weight mattered itd be a tossup, but theyre just that good.
Im not really as much of a knife guy as a gun guy,....but i love my spiderco paramilitary g10 great build. Really love it
Brian said the Void XL will only be a custom, no production version is planned.
Aww
I'd pick a Offgrid Scorpion 🦂 or the Socom elite. Offgrid Scorpion is super solid. And the Socom elite is a staple of durability.
