I forgot about the Bowie Pyrite. Should have looked at it at the show. I really like that CJRB gives the price level options. Makes these models more available for different budget levels. Smart!
The pyrite LW are not as light as you would think. That's because the steel liners have no weight reduction. Easy fix is to take it apart and drill 1/2 holes, four holes going up the liners.
It is in fact called a Detent. It may not be a ball detent but it is a detent. de·tent noun a catch in a machine which prevents motion until released. "a system of detents is used to ensure that gears are held in whatever position is selected"
I do like the look of that bowie. Do wish the lite version had better pass through. Recently got a knife with poor pass through and boy does it hurt my thumb
$200 a steep for a pyrite, even in this config. Same price as an Ekko with ti/fat carbon mars valley w/s90v ? Ti Ekko with AR-RPM only $80, so they are asking for $120 upcharge for a little S90V over AR-RPM?? Maybe i’m off base, but it doesn’t seem to add up. And I LOVE the pyrite.
I’ve acquired 3 Pyrites and the Bowie is my favorite! Very unique compared to the other new releases out there. Not so sure about the Pyrite Light though. The new bowie Pyrite looks very nice
Probably won't be buying anything from cjrb for awhile. Bought a "perfect pyrite project" model.... s90v blade, contoured titanium handle with fat carbon inserts....Absolute crap fit and finish. Inserts don't even come close to laying flush and thats after an hour with a dremel removing burrs from the screw holes that were keeping the insert from being able to be tightened down properly. The button lock also has horrible lock stick both in the open AND closed positions, makes using the thumbhole impossible at random times. If it was their budget model, I wouldn't be as upset but when I'm paying almost WE knife money I'd like to be able to use my knife without having to fix their screwups
So sorry I almost pulled the trigger but The inlays looked like shit sorry for language but $289 and all these problems they should refund you but I don't know how they are.
I would have definitely sent it back. I can overlook minor issues with “budget” knives but definitely not what you had to deal with. I’d be put off toward any of their knives as well.
This is why I try to buy off Amazon when possible I’m even willing to pay more for the ability to return anything quickly and easily and maybe it’s for this reason I have not had issues with the cjrb, CIVIVI and kizer knives I bought from Amazon. Vosteed has great CS and had good experience with returns.
Sounds like a miss during QC. Never had an issue with any of the dozen WE knives I have. Should've sent it back for a replacement instead of wrecking it because the condition it came in was terrible. Make wiser decisions
I would definitely cut myself using the knap lol... I hope CJRB comes out with a Frack the size of the Pyrite. I also wish they would use a liner lock or back lock over the button lock. Seems like if a lock is going to fail, it would be a button lock. Great content as usual!
I feel like adequate access to the liner lock, no texturing under the pocket clips and recessed pocket clips with countersunk screws should be universal at this point. Every reviewer points it out so if knife companies haven’t gotten it by now maybe they just don’t care. Also, I’m already over this FRN phase. FRN sucks. It’s cheap and flimsy and it feels cheap and flimsy. It is light though so they are trying to promote it as their new “Lite” version because it’s super cheap. Yuck! I hope it dies off quickly.
I forgot about the Bowie Pyrite. Should have looked at it at the show. I really like that CJRB gives the price level options. Makes these models more available for different budget levels. Smart!
Would like to see the Nova blade shape on the Pyrite. Or just a thicker button lock version of the Nova.

The pyrite LW are not as light as you would think. That's because the steel liners have no weight reduction. Easy fix is to take it apart and drill 1/2 holes, four holes going up the liners.
So where is the lightweight pyrite with the original blade shape? And non coated blade? I’d buy that version immediately.
It is in fact called a Detent.
It may not be a ball detent but it is a detent.
de·tent
noun
a catch in a machine which prevents motion until released.
"a system of detents is used to ensure that gears are held in whatever position is selected"
CJRB is always releasing good stuff
Six new CJRB's, an even dozen. Slightly longer blade, same quality button lock. I am in.
I like em!
I do like the look of that bowie. Do wish the lite version had better pass through. Recently got a knife with poor pass through and boy does it hurt my thumb
Nice knives from CJRB. Thanks for showing them. Have a pleasant evening bro. 🌜👈
I really like the bowie pyrite in s90v and titanium..🔥
The nova looks pretty good. Like the blade shape a lot👍
I'd buy one of every one on here IF they had the flip switch... Need all the opening options!!!!😊
$200 a steep for a pyrite, even in this config. Same price as an Ekko with ti/fat carbon mars valley w/s90v ? Ti Ekko with AR-RPM only $80, so they are asking for $120 upcharge for a little S90V over AR-RPM?? Maybe i’m off base, but it doesn’t seem to add up. And I LOVE the pyrite.
200 for what sure isn’t this model. This is like 40 bucks man. The pyrites that are made with more quality fancy stuff is like 200.
I’ve acquired 3 Pyrites and the Bowie is my favorite! Very unique compared to the other new releases out there. Not so sure about the Pyrite Light though.
The new bowie Pyrite looks very nice
Some good stuff here, Beez. Thanks
I dont have a CJRB Pyrite or QSP Peguin yet and need to get one so I feel that I am ledgit member of the Friday Night Live at the Hive.
Probably won't be buying anything from cjrb for awhile. Bought a "perfect pyrite project" model.... s90v blade, contoured titanium handle with fat carbon inserts....Absolute crap fit and finish. Inserts don't even come close to laying flush and thats after an hour with a dremel removing burrs from the screw holes that were keeping the insert from being able to be tightened down properly.

If it was their budget model, I wouldn't be as upset but when I'm paying almost WE knife money I'd like to be able to use my knife without having to fix their screwups
So sorry I almost pulled the trigger but The inlays looked like shit sorry for language but $289 and all these problems they should refund you but I don't know how they are.
I would have definitely sent it back. I can overlook minor issues with “budget” knives but definitely not what you had to deal with. I’d be put off toward any of their knives as well.

Vosteed has great CS and had good experience with returns.
I’ve personally never had any issues with any CJRB but sorry you have.
Sounds like a miss during QC. Never had an issue with any of the dozen WE knives I have. Should've sent it back for a replacement instead of wrecking it because the condition it came in was terrible. Make wiser decisions
I do like the Bowie
If you look at that titanium version vs the lightweight - how are they the same knife ?
Not usually attracted to a Bowie either but that one got me thinking some kind of way! #model
Still don't have a pyrite guess i need to get 1 or 2 or 4 of them
if you watch enough TH-cam you will convince yourself of that lol
I still prefer the rosewood handled bowie
I would definitely cut myself using the knap lol... I hope CJRB comes out with a Frack the size of the Pyrite. I also wish they would use a liner lock or back lock over the button lock. Seems like if a lock is going to fail, it would be a button lock. Great content as usual!
Just ordered one for $29 on Amazon
When are we going to see the beez blades design, seems like everyone else in TH-cam land has got theirs coming out
Awesome video. Mr. And Mrs. Beez. You two are the best . So much awesomeness ❤👍🏻
COOL KNIVES BEEZ
You said "dooty" 😂
I feel like adequate access to the liner lock, no texturing under the pocket clips and recessed pocket clips with countersunk screws should be universal at this point. Every reviewer points it out so if knife companies haven’t gotten it by now maybe they just don’t care.
Also, I’m already over this FRN phase. FRN sucks. It’s cheap and flimsy and it feels cheap and flimsy. It is light though so they are trying to promote it as their new “Lite” version because it’s super cheap. Yuck! I hope it dies off quickly.
FRN has been used in the knife industry for YEARS, mate. It’s not going anywhere.
Nice 👍
More Pie Rights huh..
😊😊😊😊😊
Dammit, I cut myself today
😎👍
