Why no love shown to the designer? TuffKnives is an OG KnifeTube legend. Good to see his designs finally coming out in production form more frequently.
Geoff Blauvelt is one of favorite designers to blow up in the last few years
I totally agree, but what I will say is he’s been around for over a decade. I remember when he dropped his first Tanics around 10-11 years ago.
When I first started diving into knives, Elmax was the first steel name I saw that wasn’t just a bunch of letters and numbers. My fresh potato brain assumed it was some god-tier steel simply because it had a pronounceable name. It’s funny seeing it in this price range more now, but im glad to see it!
Larrin Thomas rates Elmax and s45vn identical. So it wasn't just ahead of its time, one of the steels people are snatching up in the present is (according to Thomas) effectively identical.
@@monstersbox that's interesting, I always like to know which steels are very similar.
I wish they used the top liner lock on their smaller knives. Seems like it would be easier to manipulate with a short handle.
They need to make the big Pysop look exactly like this mini pysop this body style is sweet
Got one of the last ones I believe my first vosteed little bit small but I freaking love it
I was wondering when you were going to get around reviewing one of these. I picked up the blue micarta version recently and love it. I agree it's a small knife and very light weight, but you get use to it. The Elmax blade came from the factory super sharp ..hair shaving sharp. Great review as always!
Last time I was this early my wife complained.
They complain about everything don't they
My wife just laughs.
And you still get to buy knives!?!? You got yourselves some keepers.
Haha wife bad 😂😂😂
Nice...but nobody asked.
Bugout is over-hyped and much more expensive than deserved. I say this as an owner. I want one of these mini-psychoes but they look scarce.
Usually I agree completely about the "not a copy of the Bugout" point. But in this case, I happened to be carrying a Bugout I just got. It's the carbon fiber version with S90V steel. I cannot help but notice how very, very, very similar they are. Both have the same pattern of carbon fiber. Both have blue thumb studs and back spacer, though the shade of blue is darker on the Vosteed. The backspacer has the same pattern on it, though the Bugout extends past the scale for a lanyard. Of course, both have the same type of lock. Both have the same type of gimping on the liner (different length). Both have a stamped metal pocket clip with a slot cut in it. The blade shape is more different, but both have the same kind of swedge cut going towards the tip.
They are so similar that at first I thought you _were_ looking at Bugout. It's actually harder to see the differences in this one than the similarities.
It's like looking at a video came featuring two Italian plumbers in red and blue overalls named Melvin and Larry bouncing through a world attempting to rescue a princess and wondering if it was made by Nintendo.
That is a gorgeous knife! It would match well with my Giant Mouse Atelier which is also Elmax and carbon fiber. Knives this size are great for my work where there is a 3” blade limit and I had co-workers gawk at my Ladybug.
I prefer the mini blade shape to the psyop blade. It would be nice to see them make the psyop w this shape.
looks nice but for 20 bucks more i would for sure go with kershaw belair and american
Yeah i agree although heard a lot about bel air soft heat treatment and only comes in one colour. Meh
The belair is like a 3.5 inch blade. You are comparing apples to oranges
Vosteed build quality and customer service is outstanding. Got a kershaw launch 20 that looked like a 10 year old ground the blade. Aluminum handles were cast poorly.
Personal experience your mileage may vary
Every damn video I watch about knives everyone says bugout at least one time. Usually two, but at the very least, one.
I think the tension on the Omega springs is nice but if that was my first experience with the axis lock I don't think I would have liked it as much. I think it takes time to build up finger strength, I fidget with knives all the time and this one still makes my fingers sore after a while. I had a friend that couldn't even close it.
I'm actually talking about the mini nightshade, I assume the tension is the same.
I love small knives but I don't like crossbar locks on my small knives, for me they get difficult to operate with a short handle. I personally prefer liner or button locks for small knives. I agree that $99-$109 would have been a more appropriate price but I do appreciate companies making small knives with premium materials enough to where I'm willing to spend a bit extra when I see them.
Nice looking knife. I have little hands so I'd probably like it. Might have to check it out. Nice review 👌
The reason for the screws on the stop pin is, so it won't fly out if the frame/liners flex during use.
This knife, to me, is taking aim at the Benchmade Mini-Freek rather than the Bugout. And the mini freek has a price tag nearly double that of the bugout (their carbon fiber prices are wild). If I were Vosteed i also wouldn't leave money on the table with that matchup.
I carry the carbon fiber mini freek a lot. It’s awesome.
what are you talking about? it totally looks like a rip off of the mini bugout. The only difference is this one has more hard angles, which is a miss and has places for hot spots.
@@galacticcaveman4045 the bug out is the most generic design ever so saying anything is ripping off that knife is insane. It's the simplest hand and most basic drop point blade shape ever known to man. So anytime someone makes a basic knife with a drop point we all seem to run to "bugout ripoff".
@@charbum well, it's not ripping off a syderco now is it? Look at the electric blue back spacer and thumb studs. Look at the semi-hidden jimping that is integrated into the axis lock mechanism. These are features found on every generic knife right?
@@galacticcaveman4045 so a color choice on one of four models and more generic design choices. Got it. Hitting it out of the park with these examples.
Why does the psyop look like a completely different knife to the mini psyop and why does it sell for $250? I agree with you I am not usually a fan of "mini" knives. I like the standard version. I looked up the standard psyop and it looks completely different and costs over $125 more. I would be interested in a standard version of this knife for around $100-$120. Love the looks of this and the price isn't too bad but it's too small. I just don't get why it's named the mini psyop when the psyop is a different knife.
Nice design. It almost looks like the Benchmade Bugout and the Spyderco Shaman had a baby...
Cole steel had just release a recon 1 in magnacut 🥳
Great video, Big Fellar
Any chance you can review the Walmart Bugout made out of D2 for 10 bucks?
Agree. Unbelievably good for ten bucks. Him reviewing an Ozark Trail knife would be blasphemy on a channel of this caliber. 😮
Cheers!
It's like a mini griptillion.
Banger
Beautiful 😍
Actually, I was first. I like to watch the video before making comments. Thank you.
1st knife i ever took apart was my houge deka to swap out the scales
Was to different
Make sure to do ur research (watch other people's videos and see if they have any tricks
(Nick Shabazz with his q tip is a great example)
If I've got to change my grip or fidget with my knife with my grip to deploy it, it's a turn off for me
Sold out! Where i can buy?
I gave them my email to get notified when back in stock a month ago.
💙YES🖤
Woah! Not first!! Woot woot.
Solution to 'small' knife deployment: It's not a race. Stop trying to deploy a pocket knife in .002 seconds. Don't flick it. Just roll it out. Simple. Just because you CAN flick as fast as an automatic, doesn't mean you HAVE to.
If you're not in a hurry, smaller knives are no problem at all.
Everything you show on your channel is out of stock
😂
@@donlengel4770 gee... I wonder how that happens...
This is a grail knife for medium hands. Fantastic blade, fantastic action, the clip sucks, get a new one.
Bench made can be made in the USA all they want, as long as they’re still anti 2A they’re not a real American company.
WOW! FIRST!
Carbon fiber or micarta and Elmax for $120 is a perfect example "wake the fuck up Benchmade your prices are bullshit so knock it off." right along side the Deka in Magnacut for around $150 and just goes to show that Benchmade isn't worth it.
Dude these are made in China. Benchmades are made in the USA. I mean I get the frustration for their pricing but if you think they can get anywhere close, you're crazy. The gap between Chinese manufacturing costs and US manufacturing costs is absolutely massive.
If anything, Hogue's pricing for G10/Mag shows how much mark up there is in products like this Vosteed.
Small? That’s average sized. Size isn’t everything ya know. What about personality?….of the knife.
Lol... Projecting or coping?
@@JohnDoe-zb7dz both
Thanks
