This Switchblade Ruined Everything for Me. The Hawk Deadlock OTF Model B vs C Review.
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.ย. 2024
- The Hawk Knives Deadlock is known as the perfect OTF. From the Model A to the B and now the new for 2021 Model C every version has been a leap forward. This review examines and compares the ultimate autos- the B and C. It looks at what has been improved and changed and what you can expect from the model C in the future. From the revised pocket clip, the the big change in materials, and updated switch design. I also compare the Deadlock against the MUDD, the Microtech Ultratech Bounty Hunter, the AKC OTF, a Ganzo, and the Benchmade Pagan.

Are you wearing your Hawk lip balm? Lips look'n juicy my guy.
Was hoping someone would notice
🤢
@@AdvancedKnifeBro Droolin'
Niiice; both the OTF itself, as always with the Hawks, and, displaying similar consistency, this video. I find your releases are like Scooby-Snacks, as I have come to find your creative output a real treat!
Okay. Now, with preface in place, one might find as much humor as possible, within thoughts of the roller-coaster my mind momentarily boarded during the big elevation changes.
I saw the thumbnail and title, but as I thought "new AKB? Hell yes..." I noticed how much it resembled that of the excellent video you did when you got your first Deadlock! As much as I enjoy that, I was disappointed to realize that maybe I had been fooled! TH-cam, which I've come to trust so deeply to never steer me wrong, even if it might be be financially beneficial to put my interests anywhere but the top, might have taken an old clip and snuck it into the list of new clips just to increase view count? In the throes of disappointed disbelief, I reconsidered the release date of the clip. My excitement crested the final hill as I watched you walk up with your machinist's chest o' blades, which any advanced Advanced Knife Bro bro can immediately tell you, is not the way your original Deadlock review kicks off.
TL;DR: YAY! NEW ADVANCED KNIFE BRO!
That's is gay af. It's OK to be gay. Just saying that is what you are and that's ok.
Nice to know I’m not the only one cutting corners. The lady at home will never understand how satisfying it is hitting that apex and ramping up the efficiency inside my domicile. I’m not saying I run drills from point A to point B, but let’s just say scratching up clips should be my middle name. Sincerely, Mr. Scratching Up Clips
what does this mean
I scratched my microtech clip and I returned it and said it came that way lol 😂 I couldn’t bare it
@@davidjones9706 you never owned a 400 dollar knife you fucked up . And this is over 1k
I get it.
@@davidjones9706Lmao dudes saying he turns corners in his house sharply and the knife-clip sticking outside the pocket brushes up against stuff. Also same
That siren is the Benchmade police coming after you for calling out their 762 Bugout variations.
🚨
What’s up Carl!!?? 👋
Dude. That is the most badass letter opener I have ever seen. Also, the trust fund has made you a better person than the rest of us knife pleebs AKB. Off to buy a gonzo
This guy gets it
Brutal.
You are headed towards being my favorite knife channel ol' bud. Coming from someone that was handed his first slip joint 47 years ago at the age of 5 and still have a couple of scars from it. Some would say 5 is too young but I beg to differ. Now when me and my coworkers, which are all knife lovers, handle or sharpen knives they seem to come to work with a wound here and there and I ask at what age they received their first knife. The answer is always around ten to twelve years of age. As we all know a kid's brain is rapidly forming during the younger years and I learned so quick from those two scars that I can't remember the last time I drained blood from my body from a knife. Also, my old man would tell me that blood lets you know you are alive and when I would wreck a bike, fall, any time I'd bleed, my old man would always be worried about the bike and would tell me, "Skin grows back. Bikes do not repair themselves." But I digress. Anyways, you are the type of guy I'd like to have as a neighbor. Your witty sarcasm is right up my alley.
These look much better than the previous version in my opinion, the proportions just look better
Great video BRO! Thanks again for producing a lot of new content! Lots of love from Florida!
You’re always pinging me on it. I’m trying to do better. I’m aiming one for Halloween and at least two next month maybe more.
@@AdvancedKnifeBro i won’t ping anymore! However, you are my favorite knife bro!
The Hawk's agenda of eliminating blade play is amazing. It's actually prompted many otf manufacturers to follow suit. I was considering a SOG Pentagon until I saw the new dagger blade option for the AKC Evo Extreme. They also have very limited blade play and fairly high quality. What sells me on the AKC is the blade to handle length ratio. They are so much more semetrical than most other otf's. I love the look and shape of the AKC. And the AUS 8 blade steel is good enough for everyday use. And for around $100, I'm sold. When I can find one for sale that is.
Dang these look fun to play with the trigger. All the microtech otf's that i have had end up with problems either opening, closing, or both. Some even come like that from retailers. It was fun to find my name in the patreon supporter list too. Thanks for the vid AKB
I try to keep that updated regularly. Thanks for helping out man!
This might be the finest, most captivating review I’ve ever seen, of any product, ever….. well done.
Another masterpiece. I play with my AKC F16, because I'm just a Novice Knife Bro and that's my OTF budget, but it sure is nice to live vicariously through the video.
Love the Cedric and Ada shout out in the envelope.
Again you bring a class from a fairy tale to your videos. Clearly you are an advanced bro, not afraid to get you hands dirty doing your own stunts.
So this is where it leads? Trying REAL hard to resist levelling up as a collector right now. The struggle is real. Helps a lot that a knife that is, say, US$250 is generally more like AU$500. Saved by the conversion rate!
It leads here man. I mean not everyone is into the OTFs. But when you start collecting you know you get itches. Luckily this channel affords me to go there. I can’t get everything I want for sure- but I get to cross off some of my ultimate wants.
@@AdvancedKnifeBro hey you work damn hard for it! Keep up the good work and the relentless ridiculing of anything and everything, it’s a good laugh and a much-needed antidote to the many in this hobby who take it and themselves far too seriously.
Yeah I have a WE Esprit on order and was $205 but costs AUD370 and it’s on backorder, how is that different to “out of stock”
I still love this channel ❤!
Humor, fun and fair information. ✌🏻
I swear you are the funniest fucking gear review guy on TH-cam. Hats off to you sir
man when i first got my OTF, for a week that's all you could hear in my house

love it.
except i can't afford to spend 1k on any knives so i have a Cobratec and it's been an awesome blade! Super durable and still functioning after at least 10k cycles.
Still have the finesse with the witty commentary. Good to see you're still going strong with your videos.
I'll say it again....this is my favorite knife channel. Keep it up my dude. The model C is sexy but too pricey for me. The bounty hunter is more my speed.
I hit the like button every time I see the scruffy guy and BEFORE I watch the video. Sometimes I don't watch the whole video. I sure hope the voice over guy does not say anything too unibombery.
If you ever see “manifesto” in the title BAIL
That is my dream knife…OTF’s are my favorite knives. The closet I’ll probably ever get is my 2 MicroTech Dirac’s which in my opinion are the best OTF’s MicroTech makes. By the way believe it or not but my red Dirac has probably 75k firings of the action with ZERO malfunctions. The top button placement is better than the side placement IMO. The Dirac is also the smoothest of the MicroTechs I own. Maybe one day I’ll get a Hawk.
Happy Birthday Maarten!! I've owned a Marttiini fillet knife since a friend gave it to me over 30 years ago. It's had a few facelifts since.. lol
Your videos just speak to me.. lol.. thank you for putting them out. A hawk would definitely be the grail to my collection like most. Damn they are beautiful pieces of art in my opinion at least. Keep up the good work.
"Its so sharp and pointy" Your word's are so beautiful....love you boo! Smooches!
Took a writing class to get this good
I came here to call out the guy that said he got a buck knife for 20 bucks off Amazon. No way you got a knife equal to the 110 for 20 bucks.
Awesome video.. I agree with you.. it’s a better knife then the model B. That light Saber is Gangsta! 😂 great job as always 🤜🤛
Please test the sharpness of your deadlock on a $100 bill
This guy gets it
I legitimately had to pause the video every time the sirens played.
3 times were this video but the other 4 were outside.
It sounds so nice when you open and close it. No spring vibration sound.
I managed to pick up a Model C last month, which was an unused safe queen with the CF inserts, for about $150 over MSRP. Unused lip gloss included. So I feel pretty lucky about that right now. I have a chance to pick up another Model C with Ti inserts, and I'm debating whether I can afford it though.
Nice ! I'm late but needing a new fix I'm getting this one !
Funny video. Good job putting a smile on my face on a cold and blurry Sunday morning.
I started collecting knives at the tender age of 12. That was a damn long time ago! 54 years ago. But I still get hard when it comes to awesome blades!!!! 🗡🦹🏻♂️🔪⚔️
I fucking love your videos brother, especially when you said one smuck will probably say can I get the single edge dead lock so I can save a hundred dollars. I couldnt fucking agree with you more buddy. Like what the fuck are people thinking, you have to get the blade double edge. Your the best my man.
Man I enjoyed the entire video, but I literally lost it when you pulled out the information paper sleeve thing that came with the bottle after you poured the beer. Had me like "WTF?!?!" hahahaha
This is one of the funniest videos I’ve ever seen. Subscribed.
I'm going through a homeless situation so I want to thank you for! Darn good video and night.thank you so darn much.
I love your videos dude. You are really funny, yet monotonic. Didn't know it would be a killer combo
Reate EXO. Get one to review. Your take on this would be appreciated as the OTF force is strong with you. ✌
Great vid. Funny and informative. Trying to get a Model C. 🤦🏻♂️. Got the cash, just not the lottery number...
You gotta be kidding me...a knife that costs over 1k? A *pocket* knife.
I already have expensive hobbies. I have a tricked out one-of-a-kind hardtail that I built. I can't really hit up single track anymore after my latest shoulder injury and subsequent surgery, due in large part to all the OTB and wipeouts, but I like to marvel at my unique build as I happily vape away in my garage daydreaming about other stuff. Although the deflated tires do take away from its esteem.
I have a computer in pieces in one of the bedroom closets that I also custom built. At the time it was the cream of the crop. An Athlon MP powered 10k rpm Raptor drives in a raid 0 array with 6GB of ram, all overclocked and stable. I think my boot up was as little as 9 seconds. It's been in the closet for a couple of decades. Maybe it shouldn't count. I imagine it's still decently fast though.
My latest hobby being performance motorsports. I have a build in progress. A supercharged 4x4 truck, lowered, with an upgraded custom fuel system running e85, custom intake system, and it's about to get cammed with a healthy Brian Tooley Racing PDS cam along with updated exhaust and new valve train. One more week and I can hardly wait. Not including the aesthetics and suspension done I'm well over 10k into that project.
I don't need some $$$$ OTF. I'm not even a knife person WTF am I doing here!? LOL...I don't need it. Ridiculous. It's not even legal in California, but neither is my truck. What'll I do with it? Open letters and probably look cool doing it. Might look a little dangerous in my wife's eyes which I know she'd like. It'd become a dangerous trinket and looked upon with envy at all my BBQs.
I don't need it...but I want it. I think I want it. Yup. I want it. James Dean, eat your heart out. I'm getting one too.
Nice Hawk shirt and bottle!
i believe i heard u have tested these deadlock to an extreme test to see how good these are but i cant see to find that video would u mind helping me find the video?
Titanium..m390 .ahh...separate bank accounts....one of the best lines in TH-cam knife review history..
But ... challenge coin and prybar line is pretty awesome...keep it up knife bro..we will be watching
I agree with your ramblings about the Spyderco Endela. I bought the Endura, Delica and Endela and out of the three, the Endela does it all for me-Call me Goldilocks, but the Endela is just right!
For larger handles, there are always more grip options. The larger and more neutral the grip, as long as it has a good blade to weight ratio has never been an issue for me.
first time seeing your show. well its a good show...when you release your book lmk I'll purchase.
You sir, are a dad-bod warrior poet.🎩
We are related somehow...
Great video.
Hilarious but true.
Keep up the fantastic work.
Ferrari, Rolex, Deadlock.
One out of three ain't bad.
Man jewelry made possible by paychecks and disguising oneself as a responsible adult. ✌
Great video
I don't give a shit about knives, but I will watch your videos. Really funny.
I thought I was the only one that enjoys a game of nightcrawlers, well as long as you don't loose your knife
Hello A.K.B., Well for me a 'Ddlck." would be a bucket list sorta thing and btw at the end or near, the only thing in my bucket will be the list I'd made over the years! Lol, I've done more for my country/community than most ya could put your finger on and here's life's lesson: "The paying doesn't end, regardless how little/much money you have"!!! Anyone who thinks differently doesn't live in the real world!! Hope that all's well with everyone/thing. Btw, the ONLY thing that'll stop that itch is moving your interest to helping others in need. An export as opposed to an import type of thing!🤔 In the psychological aspect, you've a hole inside that ya can't fill no matter how many things ya buy, IMHO!!!👂 Realizing that is the first step, understanding that could take a while.👂 Just say'n!!! Keep up the good work and keep these vids coming. Be safe and take care, "God Bless", sincerely, Randy. 👍👍🙏😇👊
Id listen to your commentary on anything. Go ahead talk about fuckin brussel sprouts. Im in
Nice Hawk shirt
Bro, excellent video! You truly are a genius thank you!
If you had the choice and regardless of price, would you pick Model B or Model C? And why?
I’d pick the C, but I’d wait for a special release with a unique inlay option.
I just picked up a Model C. Paid a few bucks over table price. I am not too crazy about the sticker like carbon fiber inlays. They are kinda meh. Other than that, the knife kicks ass. I was thinking about selling it and getting a Model B, but may wait for a special release with different inlay options.
So when is Advanced Lightsaber Bro coming out?
FINALLY! I've found a true brother in arms that collects the ears of vanquished enemies, I...fell...so...understood.
I'd have to be one of those guys to get a single edge.
you do know that that dagger style blade is damn near un-sharpen'able with many precision angle sharpeners like a wicked edge. and a dagger style blade could not be any more useless. for EDC.
Is the model C blade shorter than the B?
I feel like they’re about almost the same size
Who you playing Night Crawlers with, Shabazz?
Is that a regulation sized lightsaber?
Is that a Pete sticker you sliced out of the envelope? You guys need to do a colab again
It is!!
Your videos are hilarious! Yup I just received my Hawk Mod C… Luxury item, more than 1000$. Best blade I’ve ever owned. Hard earned inheritance money. Don’t cut carpet though. That’s what the inheritance is for. You must be left handed… 🤪
Thumbs up, subbed, and commented because man love for you bro.
Knife bro!!! Look man I really want you to review the OKC S3 (newest US Marines) knife. I just came across one at a killer price 75$ (they retail around 200$). I will give you like 6 bucks to review it.
The Scott topper shrike is another otf with zero blade play. Don’t know much about it though except that it’s way over my price range.
Yeah those are 4000 custom one off knives, and I’m not sure they’re made for everyday use at that price point. That’s getting into handmade art knife territory- a while other class of knives.
@@AdvancedKnifeBro Yea, although recently they did release a “field grade” shrike without any adornments that comes in a wooden box. I think it’s still going to be very expensive but I don’t know the price.
your videos are the best . always look forward to laughing at your perfectly sly bangers.
You Sir need a Spyderco “Autonomy 2” in your life, easily one of the best purpose designed and meant to be used autos out there. Not super available, but they do come up for sale for like half the price of a Microtech, knife role queen. Spyderco sells service kits so “you” can maintain and change the main spring. Yes the button is goofy looking but it works. It’s such a beefy and well made auto, I just don’t get why it’s not more popular, especially at the price they go for. If you can call a $250 knife a “good deal” the Autonomy 2 is a fantastic deal with a Presidents’ Day coupon. I would send you mine for a review but for some reason the thought makes my testiculs crawl up into my belly, must be the wood chopping…..
I don't jack sh#$ about knives (although I'm learning while watching) But I can recognize good content. This is entertaining stuff. Deadpan sense of humor and slight overtones of despair and a silent cry for help. This "knife Bro" is in deep, at least alcoholics have AA , no help in foreseeable future for one. I'm kidding l think. Either way love the content.
Blade thickness?
The spine measurement in all of my videos is the “thickness”
4 steel reserves a day.......classic.
6:30 in other words, it's about 5 grams heavier on the back end
PLEASE test the SOG Pentagon OTF, supposedly it also does not have blade wiggle...
It has “almost” no blade wiggle. Might see if I can find one. Everyone I’ve heard report on it says it’s there but minimal.
@@AdvancedKnifeBro NIce... looking foreward to that one. Curious if of all companies SOG is the one that gets closer to those Hawks.
Bricky!
friggin loved it. the video and the bounty hunter mostly hahajaah!
I’d just like anew knife
Subbed just because of the smart-ass commentary. Well...and the knife porn but mainly the commentary.
Great vid brother 👍 love them blades, unfortunately if it's hard for you guys it's even harder to get one down here to Mexico. Don't think I'll live that long 🤣😁👍
Lmao I've owned that ganzo with a cleaver blade and orange handle! I recall asking myself why in the world did I buy this knife, and eventually sold it
Tony Hawk!
A reverse sucking sound...in a good way.
It is not true that there are no other OTF knives without blade play. There are at least 2 more OTF knives without blade play.
Ok name them. It’s always appropriate to back up the “YOURE WRONG” with sources.
One is a 2000-4000 hand made custom right- the topper shrike?
What’s the other? It’s not the Pentagon.
@@AdvancedKnifeBro yes, those 2 knives.. The Pentagon is also zero blade play.
I’m going to review the Pentagon- and it doesn’t have zero. It has almost none.
th-cam.com/video/l5_2upCfzM4/w-d-xo.html
@@AdvancedKnifeBro I had the opportunity to test a SOG and was told that the knife is zero blade play. I actually had the feeling of not having blade play on it, seeing on the website I saw that they advertise it as "rattle-free". Do you intend to test the Scott Topper Shrike? And regarding my first comment, I apologize if I sounded offensive, I'm learning English and I'm based on the way of speaking about my country. Here, saying that something is not true just means that the information the person gave is not correct and not that we are calling the person a liar.
The shrike is not really a well known, affordable or easy to obtain knife. They are made one at a time. and I currently don’t have an intention of reviewing it. It seems a bit fragile, I mean it may not be, but it isn’t something you would use much considering it’s more of a collectors piece. If I had the money maybe. So technically speaking there is that one I guess.
I dunno man. I think the Model B had a lot more Thocc, if you know what I mean..
Wait, this is not a keyboard review channel?
BRICKY....oh, and the hawk too, I guess.
The jdubz sticker 😂😂
Bro your to funny, def getting one thanks for review
The older one looks cooler. Better materials too titanium>aluminium
Better for what? Functionally speaking how does the titanium make the knife better?
@@AdvancedKnifeBro Well titanium is usually stronger than aluminium. I would guess it is the same in this case. Both knives are very cool tho.
So it’s benefit it is what in a $1000+ OTF? Gavin explained why 7075 aluminum (he’s explained this in several videos) was better than titanium in the deadlock. So you say well titanium is stronger. So it’s better right? But In the video below he aluminum allows easier assembly and tear down, a better surface for the blade to slide along , and aluminum keeps the weight down while allowing more inlay options. All I see are benefits from the aluminum. The slight strength advantage of the titanium won’t improve a knife that isn’t designed to be some sort of hard use shelter building beater. Every thing you can do with the titanium deadlock you can do with this one.
instagram.com/tv/CPyaphej28I/?
@@AdvancedKnifeBro titanium have a lot more strength than aluminium not only slight more strength.
Love the vid. You should check out the new company EDC_Reviews did on a model called the “Shift Axial” lil less and sits it’s pricing around $200 for a stellar OTF w/ cpm20cv, excellent action barely if any rattle during his particular mode that he was doing a first impressions. You might be surprised. Keep it up 👍
I’m gonna!
@@AdvancedKnifeBro
Believe me I can literally empathize. Try to maintain buying, selling and trading high end firearms and the same sh*t with knives: I had a collection many would wish they had but I have 2 left snd been on a budget frenzy. I know this will change because I would like to get on the books for a couple makers along with the thousands of production & midtech’s that seem to be flooding the market.
I am selling a couple new pew Pews if your interested DM me. One is one of my favorites the other is actually unfired w/ a SMS II OPTIC; the trigger on the striker fired is something to experience. Send your email if your feeling froggy!
I checked out the shift and it has major blade play. I liked it but once you own a deadlock ,you will never be happy with rattling junk.
You are hot 💩! Not cuz the Hawk but the light saber. Okay for both.👍🏼 Knife Life!👊🏼

You ARE the G&G Hawk of knife TH-cam channels! Small batches of perfect videos every time you post! Can't get enough of your content man!
Hell yeah. His videos are a joy to watch.

The Most Excellent conversation piece and so much more.
It looks well made.
Dude you have the absolute best scripts. I only come for you comedy, awesome work Mr knife bro
I've heard the Sog Pentagon OTF gets reeeellll close to the deadlocks zero blade play, and there's only one knife youtuber that we can trust to put out a video essay on it...
Nick "The Voice" Shabazz?
"And then I realized, I'm only in control of myself". A thought from a bygone era.
Nightcrawlers huh? What's that. No, I mean you said it, and now I can't move past it.
The organised crime bosses that took over Australian politics have deemed that we plebs are not allowed to have OTF knives. But I can still have a 13 inch long fixed blade dagger, so long as it is called a 'Pig Sticker'. So your OTF privilege is of no consequence because my OTF has better reach nyah nyah :)
two-tenths of an ounce = battleship anchor. lol And EVERYONE needs at $1,000 switchblade. It's euphoric!
