Reiki Shinzou If you look up on google the definition of liberal I found that it leads you to the party of libertarian and I also found that they are supposed to RESPECT ANOTHER PERSONS PERSONAL CHOICES. I don’t find that to be the case when they try to sign petitions saying that the beautiful knives we buy are scary, but they can support transgenders and feminists. Go figure
I absolutely love this knife I've carried it every day for over 10 years and never had to do more then oil it once in awhile and sharpen the blade. I'll definitely stay with this brand for as long as it is around
Just got mine in the mail from Blade HQ this morning. So far I'm very impressed with the quality of the knife for the price. Lock up is strong, absolutely zero blade play and after a few passes with my diamond rod and a few swipes on my Gerber steel hone, it is shaving sharp. I own many high end knives, mostly Emerson's. I also have a Protech/Emerson CQC7 auto, and while this knife is not quite on par with it, for the price difference pick up the Boker AK-74. Especially if you're on a budget and want a really good auto.
This has been my fav edc knife for the last 5+ years and finally yesterday the spring broke. I’ve used the hell out of it and it still went strong till I got bored the other day and just kept opening it lol. But they sell springs which i just ordered as well as ordered another ak47 from bladeops with d2 steel blade. Can’t wait to use that one.
I have had the aus8 version for awhile now, I have much nicer auto's, yet always put this model in my pocket, so ordered the s30v version and await for it now. The only inexpensive auto I like and will own by far.
The straight clip point blade is one of my all time favorites. I feel it to be one of the best all around blade shapes out there I am going to have to get one of these.
Been looking at these for awhile,I think me and my son will grab one or two at this great knife store here in Columbus,Oh. Thank you for this video, I appreciate it very much.
I got one of these for my dad a year or two ago and another one for my cousin for christmas this year. I think hes gonna be happy because i dont think he shops on the internet and hes probably never seen a knife like this before.
Would you say the S30V knife has better quality control than the regular version, perhaps better tolerances, or are they identical apart from the blade steel? How is it with the blade play on these, these days?
I've got one of these with orange handle and damascus blade. Very solid feeling auto. Just remember to keep the handle screws tight too or use loctite.
I have the AUS8 that came in green. After a week or so, the paint started wearing off. I took somw 2000 grit sand paper and sanded the paint off; well, almost all of the paint. It remained in the low places on the handle and it looks AWESOME! Message me and I'll send you a picture of it. Peace, from Jawjah!
I really enjoy this knife. So cheap and after you sharpen them, they're just amazing. I would enjoy different handle material, but then I'd have to pay more.
I've been looking to buy this knife for about a month now but any of the big sites that sell them say that they can't ship them unless you are military/government personnel. I live in NY and they are legal to own for hunting/fishing/trapping but can't seem to find where to buy an auto.
I know there are several auto knives, both models, new and old, is there any blade play? do you have to adjust it a lot to keep the blade play to a minimal?
You cannot conceal carry a switch blade in most states. I believe if you have a pocket clip on the knife, it's no longer a concealed weapon. Not 100% but that's my understanding.
I just got two boker autos and they are really stiff and the buttons are very hard to push... do you have any advice? p.s. I ordered the thrunight penlight from your video! thanks so much!
Wondering what played out with your sticky buttons. I just go one yesterday and the button was super sticky. I cycled it a ton last night watching TV and it seems a bit better.
Hi, auto knives are now legal in Indiana, so obviously i must have one. i am looking for the lightest knife that has a pocket clip. my fav every day carry knife is the ka-bar mini hunter. can you recommend me a good light knife with a pocket clip? Thanks
You'd hear the same yada yada as politicians would think they'd need to tell you. Seriously, though the deployment adds virtually nothing to the danger, lethality, or 'banworthiness'. They're banned because they look scary and intimidating on TV.
I had one of these in aus8 and i didnt have any luck with it, the spring gave out within a few weeks, never carried it or anything. still worked as a non-automatic but the blade play just got worse and worse until i just gave up on it :l i like a balisongs more anyway :P
The problem with township and city law is that I can't find it. I live an hour away from Baltimore and can't find any laws and I know there has to be some differences. I pisses me off because I want to follow the law but can't find it.
john plewa Obviously but I would like to be prepared for the disaster situation. All it takes is traffic stop going wrong. Walking on the streets and getting stopped by a cop who doesn't respect your rights. Or someone picks a fight with you and you have the wrong knife on you. You didn't even use the knife in the fight they just searched you and they tac that on with the other charge. Bad shit happens in the blink of an eye.
USPATRIOT96 It's a risk I'm willing to take, never been busted for anything, not even a parking ticket, I'm just banking on my luck and the judge not being a dick.
I would buy this knife right now if it was legal to carry in my state/city.. so ill buy the tan (izula 2) with the extra kit to feed my knife needs since I haven't bought a new knife in a couple months since I have been saving for a new PC :)
On a non-silly reply, why do IQ tests correlate very well with entry into secondary schooling? Because secondary schools give IQ tests and your ability to get in them is based on how well you do. It is an example of forced correlation. S30V was heavily marketed in industry, hence it became a "good" steel by forced correlation. If you want to see a dramatic example of why this is so then ask yourself what do you know about RWL34 and in general how is it regarded and ask the same question about CPM 154 CM PM . These steels are both PM versions of ATS-34 yet one of them is highly regarded as a "premium" steel and one is some European oddity. RWL34 obviously doesn't have what steel craves.
I bought one from a gas station and it I sadly lost it.I got another one and it didn’t have that Matte smooth grey finish on the blade as my first one and didn’t have that agressive tip either gosh I miss it.
it's only illegal if you get caught
😂😂😂😂
Michael Cheritto haha hell yea I want one too.
not illegal in michigan anymore either
Its only illegal if your state is full of stupid liberals.

Very little maintenance. Just like a real Kalashnikov
What else would you really need to do with it lol

Have carried mine for 13 years. It is the perfect EDC in my opinion. Fast, powerful, versatile, and safe.
Looks like a sweet knife. Thanks.
Thanks for your useful reviews, I wasn't sure to purchase this AK-74 Auto but your review made me decide to buy it. I just ordered the S30V version.
I own the old version: wow one of my first perchases worth every penny.
I don't even know how many times I've watched this video.. and I finally finally ordered me a BK!!
I have had the aus8 version for awhile now, I have much nicer auto's, yet always put this model in my pocket, so ordered the s30v version and await for it now. The only inexpensive auto I like and will own by far.

Same here, i thinks it’s the best blade shape personally.
Been looking at these for awhile,I think me and my son will grab one or two at this great knife store here in Columbus,Oh. Thank you for this video, I appreciate it very much.
Love the Boker ak-47.Unfortunately its illegal in Canada.
Yeah; no autos here or butterfly style knives :(
You can get it non-auto
killermanSAd oh :) I might do that. Thanks !
Kyle Alfred np
You, by law can't even get caught with a knife outside of your home in Canada. period, even a swiss army knife. Canada is bullshit.
I got one of these for my dad a year or two ago and another one for my cousin for christmas this year. I think hes gonna be happy because i dont think he shops on the internet and hes probably never seen a knife like this before.

Such an underrated model, love 'em.

I just bought a black skullashnikov and I can’t wait to get it
So glad I live in Texas where we can carry automatic Knives now.
Nice upgrade in steel and I like that new shape.
I am having a problem finding this knife with S30V blade. Can you share the link. Thanks
Are boker quality knives?
liked and subscribed. the s30v AND the blade geometry got me too.
I like the old blade shape
AWESOME!!!! I hope they still have them when I come up with $80! I love that blade!
I really enjoy this knife. So cheap and after you sharpen them, they're just amazing. I would enjoy different handle material, but then I'd have to pay more.
The handle material is cool cause it looks like a type 3 ak bayonet
Andrew Hamilton You know, I think I've come around. I love aluminum handles now. The ergos are very good on this knife, at least for my medium hands.
would u say this knife is safe to carry in your pocket, do u think it would open accidently?
I've been looking to buy this knife for about a month now but any of the big sites that sell them say that they can't ship them unless you are military/government personnel. I live in NY and they are legal to own for hunting/fishing/trapping but can't seem to find where to buy an auto.

You cannot conceal carry a switch blade in most states. I believe if you have a pocket clip on the knife, it's no longer a concealed weapon. Not 100% but that's my understanding.
what colorway or version specifically is your green one there I love the look of it!
Boker makes a great knife
Boker Kalashnikov's rock.
0:38 is the best sound ever
Awesome!I love mag too:D
What do you think about the Boker Magnum Italian Classic?
Great upgrade and I like the ffg blade, however the draw to the original for me was the exteremely low cost. Still cool though
Can you remove the belt Clip?
I just got two boker autos and they are really stiff and the buttons are very hard to push... do you have any advice? p.s. I ordered the thrunight penlight from your video! thanks so much!
Wondering what played out with your sticky buttons. I just go one yesterday and the button was super sticky. I cycled it a ton last night watching TV and it seems a bit better.
I finally got it to work, had to play with it for hours
What's the difference between the metal that's is used for the blades ?
Hi, auto knives are now legal in Indiana, so obviously i must have one. i am looking for the lightest knife that has a pocket clip. my fav every day carry knife is the ka-bar mini hunter. can you recommend me a good light knife with a pocket clip? Thanks
I think kershaw might be best for a light auto
does bladeops ship to every state
Could I carry it in North Carolina
This made me a sub. Thank u. This is my going to be my next knife.
Just bought one. No longer illegal in Louisiana. States are finally getting rid of their silly, outdated knife laws.
My mistake I have several Bokers and some do have ffg. That is a bayonet grind on the one picture here. Not the S30V That is FFG.
Sweet knife! But you can buy two Aus8 models for the same price
I definitely prefer the new blade shape
There's a steel snob in all of us :p Might have to pick this up somehow... Love the old version I have :)
jeff im going broke here i already bought the knife from your last review
Can't actually carry this knife but love it any way. Knife laws are dumb would love to hear a politician explain the need.
You'd hear the same yada yada as politicians would think they'd need to tell you. Seriously, though the deployment adds virtually nothing to the danger, lethality, or 'banworthiness'. They're banned because they look scary and intimidating on TV.
Um, you didn't put a link to your earlier review in the description like you said you would, just saying. ^-^
What are the handles made out of?
btw what balisong did you get??
are they legal in texas now
What steel is better s30v or S35vn
All knives legal in Kansas :). And any lower government is prohibited from any form of regulation on knives. One of few redeeming qualities here.
those are so cool I kinda relate to supa's comment
Do they have a safty
I believe so
I had one of these in aus8 and i didnt have any luck with it, the spring gave out within a few weeks, never carried it or anything. still worked as a non-automatic but the blade play just got worse and worse until i just gave up on it :l i like a balisongs more anyway :P
I'm not great with technical terms, so what grind would you call that?
Full flat grind.s30v.
Mike Hughes thats not a ffg
Mike Hughes fuck me the new one is i was talking about the old design
No problem, They do have several blade styles.
I just got one as a gift. The# on the blade is aus8. But the blade is the same as the new model. Knife #51280.
new XL version just released at blade ops... please review
now they're around $60 thats a great deal compared to your $50 8Cr13Mov's being put out by everyone and their mother.
The box is modeled after a 47 mag, a 74 mag is much less curved.
The problem with township and city law is that I can't find it. I live an hour away from Baltimore and can't find any laws and I know there has to be some differences. I pisses me off because I want to follow the law but can't find it.
Dude it doesn't matter just don't brake the law while its in your pocket.
Google knife laws, maryland.+ county...

Thanks for the link..
Would anyone know how I can get a replacement if I wanted to I got my mini a month or two ago
Give it a wiggle
I would buy this knife right now if it was legal to carry in my state/city.. so ill buy the tan (izula 2) with the extra kit to feed my knife needs since I haven't bought a new knife in a couple months since I have been saving for a new PC :)
Do the smith and wesson cuttin horse double blade
Idk how easy it would be for you to review a sog snarl, but that would be great... Either way any video will get a like from me.
Awesome, love oughtohmatick knives. ....................should I run spell check........nah pretty sure my spelling is on point.
Legal in Florida with my Conceal Carry Permit. I only carry auto knives.
Maybe now the old ones will go down in price :O)
I don't think that's how it works with knives, sorry mate. Lol but I hope they do
What makes S30V better than AUS8?
S30V has what steel craves.
th-cam.com/video/-Vw2CrY9Igs/w-d-xo.html
Cliff Stamp Electrolytes?
Chumgeyser i believe it's pronounced "lectrolytes."
On a non-silly reply, why do IQ tests correlate very well with entry into secondary schooling? Because secondary schools give IQ tests and your ability to get in them is based on how well you do. It is an example of forced correlation.
S30V was heavily marketed in industry, hence it became a "good" steel by forced correlation.
If you want to see a dramatic example of why this is so then ask yourself what do you know about RWL34 and in general how is it regarded and ask the same question about CPM 154 CM PM . These steels are both PM versions of ATS-34 yet one of them is highly regarded as a "premium" steel and one is some European oddity.
RWL34 obviously doesn't have what steel craves.
isn't rwl34 the same thing as 154cm?
So glad I live in florida where you can legally open carry a sword lmao
My state requires you have a handgun permit in order to own one of these.
No it doesn't it requires you to have a permit to carry it not own it .😊
Funny until you said that was the box I actually thought that was a ten round AK mag
Y’all bladehq is a website they are $39.99
Hello!
Can I have one in Colorado
Logan Etheridge look it up
Safety
Just because it's S30V doesn't mean it's better...
Always more expensive.
Kalashnikov, not Kalishnakoff.
+A daft punk Daft Punk sucks
+Medic Sabbi SHOTS FIRED
Ruben Burkhardt ikr
I think that's the cheapest I've ever seen s30v
I hate these knives! The locks fail after some use, they develop vertical blade play, and finally the blade broke in half.
No disrespect. But the blade play sucks. The clip is garbage. S30v doesnt make it more attractive. Go with civivi if you want budget.
I bought one from a gas station and it I sadly lost it.I got another one and it didn’t have that Matte smooth grey finish on the blade as my first one and didn’t have that agressive tip either gosh I miss it.
