Thank you Stuart!

Good show Stuart! Pretty cool Milov! Thanks for showing it. I also like that orange!
Stuart is the man. You're welcome Tobias.

Being of Czech heritage it’s nice to see some of their knives. The lion on the handle is the lion from the Czech coat of arms. It has a twin tail, not flames. A more modern company from there is Acta non Verba, I like their stuff too. Good review, looks like a very practical knife! Also, very cool of Stuart to send you that! He is an awesome guy and friend to the community!
Thanks for the info RJ. Stuart is great, and I'm very appreciative of his thoughtfulness.
It’s a clone of the Victorinox 111mm Sentinel. Mikov has been making Victorinox knock-offs for years.
I think it is pronounced MEE- koaaf but could be wrong. I’ve got a video of some of there earlier Swiss Army Knock-off from the Warsaw Pact era.
That knife looks like it has the double ended liner lock that is used for the flat head screwdriver on the bottom. But it doesn’t have the tool set.
I'll have to check it out. MEE-Kov MEE-Kov. Yea, that sounds right.
Oh Stuart strikes again!!!!!! God he is one of the most fantastic guy……… He’s the best!!!!!!!
Glad to have him.
Mikov is really great.. defitnielly bang for the buck
Pretty decent quality for the price, I agree. Thanks, Smart.
I think they really took a good look at the Swiss. Looks very much like a Victorinox. It seems to be as good as the VIctorinox. Oh you're a fan of the dutch soccer team how great!! (orange being the shirt colour) Thank you for sharing.
Yes the Swiss seem to be the source of influence for these. I do root for Holland in many international matchups. Thanks Jeroen.
@@ThriftyKaniffy Yes! The Dutch Volunteers!
@@jamescullum5412 haha yea, I don't think that's the one I'm thinking of.
@@ThriftyKaniffy If you're saying you are Dutch i'm even going to speak dutch to you haha. Wait you aren't dutch are you?
@@jeroenvoss6231 No, not Dutch.
Thank you TK, another good comprehensive review of a nice knife, as you say useful for garden or workshop use.
Take care
Sam
Thanks Sam. Glad you're enjoying all the content. atb TK
I changed to this pocket knife from Ruike P-108SB WHICH... Opened in my pocket on it's own and sliced my finger and thigh. Super useful bottle opener, pretty nice blade too.
Sorry to hear that ET42Driver, glad you found Praktik that worked better for you.
Interesting. Isn’t Mikov the company that makes the small fish-shaped knife that’s traditionally used for mushrooming? I always wondered why it wasn’t shaped like a mushroom. I like that spear point. That’s pretty cool.
I like the blade as well. Very unfamiliar with the brand maybe someone else knows, if so chime in. Thanks Su.
That looks like a good safe to use work knife, but UK laws being what they are not suitable on two counts, blade to long and lock knife, I have to wonder how many accidents have happened since the law changed, good review enjoying your channel.
Thanks Lewis. I'm familiar with the laws, have read them over. I just always seem to misspeak about them when the camera is rolling. My apologies. Take care.
The sign is two tailed lion, official heraldic sign of the Czech Republic. And Bohemian Switzerland is a region in the north of the Czech Republic referring to similarities in natural appearance of Helvetian Country. Anyway this knife is know for generations of fathers passing this knife to their sons. Good quality as well and now the brand is being restored.
Thanks for the info Martin. Much appreciated.
Nice video about an obscure brand!
Stil wondering why the box it came in says “2 functions” 🤔
I could be wrong, but the 2nd feature is being presented as the linerlock or perhaps even the keyring.
It's similar to a Victorinox Trekker, except with one blade. Neat specially in orange ( is your team the Astros? ).
It’s a clone of the Sentinel. I’m thinking Tennessee Volunteers!
@@KnifeChatswithTobias thanks Tobias! The Trekker is more common here as it's used by the Singapore Army.
Hmm, so I got the state, sport and team wrong ;) hehe.
@@diverdave2179, maybe, maybe not on the sports team. Thrifty is being noncommittal. The Trekker is the primary pattern on the 111 mm frame. The senitnel is just one of many different 111mm framed knives in the Victorinox family.
@@KnifeChatswithTobias Thank you! Have to read up more. I am more familiar with the 91mm line.
Thanks for the Sentinel info. Wrong team. If y'all want REALLY want to know I drop a clue back in the One that Got Away - Creepy Knife video.
Nice
Thanks for watching Prestriedge.
@@ThriftyKaniffy Yes Sir. You are very welcome. Love the content.
Looks like a decent work knife. If it locks then it’s not UK legal. I understand the whole length of the blade and not the cutting edge has to be less than 3’ but regardless unless you have a VERY good reason for carrying a knife that locks and has a 3’ blade in public then your getting knicked. Great video brother 👍
Yea I know, I just keep wanting them to be and then I remember this or that doesn't qualify. Thus, the graphic to correct myself. I'll get it eventually. Thanks Toad.
The law was a knee jerk reaction to what was happening and what is still happening today. Knives don’t kill people, people kill people. If wasn’t knives it would be pointy sticks and sharpened pencils would be illegal to carry. Humans can be a savage race ☠️☠️☠️.
@@Toadonthehill. True. Spread love, not vitriol and we can all happily coexist.
If we are all positive and caring it should rub off on others😍 spred the love around and most of it will stick 😎❤️.
Go Broncos!
Lol. I'll just let you guys keep guessing.
They made cold war stilettos for their chech special agents.
Thanks for the info T-Cup.
A Gamecock!
You're getting real warm, but the Gamecocks are not orange.
@@ThriftyKaniffy Tigers eat roosters.
@@jamescullum5412 Nice job James. You got it. The Clemson Tigers.
For the record, Bohemian Switzerland (or Czech Switzerland) is a name of a region in Czech Republic. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohemian_Switzerland
Thanks for the info.
