I love The Spyderco Vallotton for it's built quality and drop dead gorgeous look. In my very large hands the liner lock and thumb studs are helping me to open and close the knife efficiently. Unfortunately this is not a EDC knife for me because the handle is slippery and every metal edge that you can find is sharp to the touch. Still this knife has a special place in my collection, despite the blade being thicker than a concrete milkshake!
Same here. I have many Spyderco knives and the looks of this one is my favorite. Is it my EDC? no, I carry other Spydies for that. This one is my carry knife for when I feel like carying a unique-looking blade. That works well for what it is.
It is a fighting knife and as an ex combat vet, you need a thick blade due to bones guarding critical parts of a human and thick clothes. Plus good for prying and other heavy duty tasks. Not everyone carries knives to cut paper or an apple. This knife is a serious knife for serious knife hard use people.
Your eyes must be brown my friend. The only thing you are expert of is bullshitting. You are probably a deluded 14yr old with the intelligence of a 4yr old who lives in his own action movie universe. I often wonder why people like you exist and how they survive daily life. Are you supervised 24/7?
I agree with Eric that this knife is probably more of a tactical knife. You could put this one on your night stand. For me, Spyerco's best EDC knife is the Delica. The Delica is light weight, a great slicer, and will do most anything you need it to do.
wonderful review from THE go-to reviewer. not all knives have to be light weight for me, or slicey like the chapparal. i'll admit, i'm somewhat of a style freak who looks for unusual knives that i might never carry. for pure utility, i'll gladly carry the rat 2 in aus8 and sharpen with glee until the blade disappears...
I love the spydie hole but it's just hideous on this particular knife. I think it'd be more interesting if the hole was removed and the stops were thumb studs.
Just sold mine to a friend. Great knife in every department except the weight and clip. I found myself never carrying it on account of it actually weighed heavily on any trousers I wore except for work pants and heavier denim.
I had no real love for this knife whatsoever....then I actually laid hands on one. I would love to have this knife in my collection. So unique and well made. I'm realizing lately that I have no idea what I actually think of a knife until I handle it. Another example: Rockjumper. Wasn't interested,then I handled one and love that knife now too. It's like a pm3 lw with a big ass warncliff blade on it and I like it. Example 3 was the pm3 light weight. Love it now too!!
I've been very happy with the action on the PM3 LW models I've used. smooth, almost broken in out of the box, and it surprises me because they're so light I don't expect the inertia of the blade to pull it open on flicking. I wish it were a little bigger but I guess I don't have a PM2 LW to compare yet. Totally agree about putting hands on a knife. I see interesting looking knives at all kinds of different prices. Over the 50-100 dollar range I really want to hold one or have experience with a knife they are regularly compared to, perderably actually handling them. Getting up into higher prices, I'm more adamant about handling them. I have a pretty good idea of how most Spydjes act and feel so I might let them slide a little bit but any other brand going over about 200 bucks, it's hard to pull the trigger until I know it is exceptional in hand/use.
This knife is gorgeous! Well made and well finished. I personally love the thumb studs. They give me more leverage on the heavy blade. The Valloton is built like a tank because its meant for stabbing. The designer is known for his Italian stiletto designs. No its not for EDC, but for dates and dress up occasions, and even for home defense. That blade aint closing with that ridiculously thick liner!
Spyderco (and Kizer and a couple of others) stop ruining perfectly good knives with all the mounting holes for pocket clips already. For crying out loud make right left specific models. Nothing worse than seeing a great looking knife ruined by having tiny holes drilled all over it (especially around the pivot). Anybody out there carry a decent knife tip down anymore? Why? Stop it................................Okay, all out of hole hate for the moment.
I actually think the little holes on mine look cool. If I had a complaint about the appearance of the knife (which I really don't I've carried one for like 4 years) it would be to get rid of the spidey hole and have a flipper.
I carry tip-down. It started with my first Spyderco stainless POLICE model. Been carrying that way ever since. I can draw and open this way faster than when I carry my Autonomy 2, which is only set up for tip-up carry.
**Insert obligatory witticism about being early to comment** I never really understood the overly thick blade on this knife. It’s supposed to be an homage to Italian stiletto type knives and I feel like typically those have thinner blades? Also, it doesn’t really seem like a “working knife” so why include a thick blade? I’d really like to hear Butch’s rationale behind that decision (if he’s the one that made that decision to begin with).
When you stab things it makes kind of a triangular shaped hole which would be harder to stitch. Just make sure you have a firm grip so you don't cut your fingers if you hit a bone **giggles like a psycho and runs off** Oh and it's extremely durable. I've carried and used this knife for several years and there is basically no wear and tear.
Looking at the mini... that spider hole takes up a ton of real estate, saw a video on it and it looked like it had a recurved blade (Spyderco shot show preview) but pics from bladehq make it look like it doesn’t, and s30v on a $200... kinda still want one.
I’m pretty new to collecting knives. I’ve bought a good amount of them the past year though. This strongly caught my eye, I’m extremely tempted to get it, but I’m finding that the big heavy knives I bought, I’m never carrying, they just sit in my office for me to fidget with once in a while. I think I should probably focus more on knives that I plan on carrying
Sounds like I'm at the same stage of my "development". As I write this, my ZT 0562 and Twosun Maverick are for sale to offset recent purchases of a Sage 5 and Para 3. (Oh, and the Luft Concepts AVNT... yeah, can't forget that one...).
I can't remember if the m16 uses the thumbstuds as the stop pin. I seem to remember that being the only knife I saw with that construction l, but I could be wrong. It was years ago. Interesting to see the first of that kind.
Nick the Oracle has spoken his expertise is gospel I will never ever commit my hard earned $$$ without a good review from him he’s the best in the knife community by far :-)
I've kept my Vallotton for it's thickness and overbuilt quality.. I only wish I could find one in automatic. I work with my hands so the pads in my right hand has become fairly thick for 5'7" 150 lbs.
I was going to comment on the video skipping between the Bad and the Ugly, but I see it was edited out intentionally for the disassembly voiding the warranty no longer being true, which I appreciate, although it was jarring while watching it. If this is going to be an issue for future reviews (no idea how many more Spyderco reviews you have left with this) I might suggest shooting a quick filler explanation instead and splicing that in.
Really like the looks of this knife and like that it's built like a tank. I Didn't think it was that big of a knife until I saw it next to the 0452cf. I also don't care for the weird zero grind near the tip, and the blade could be thinner, however, I do own a few thick blades that actually do slice fairly well because of how they did their grind. Overall a pass for me but it still looks nice.
Lance Leon I didn't really know what to call it, I've seen that grind on WE knives and didn't really like sharpening them (just an unnecessary complication). They're vaguely reminiscent of like a double sided Scandi but kinda half assed (which in hindsight is probably what I meant to say but it's early so Zero grind is what I typed). That grind does make for a good cutter, just not the best for sharpening on a fixed angle system.
Its been a few years since your initial review; do you know of any sources or sites that offer aftermarket accesories for this particular knife. I wanted to find options to smooth out the handle edges and get a thinner more grip on the scales
Good review. It is a good looking knife. The problem is I like to carry and use my knives. The thickness, weight and that hot spot liner lock are big detours for me.
I looks like a German military knife from the early last century. I love it. But can someone tell me what justifies it's high price? The steel is not so special
Was that the 52100 PM2 you compared it too size wise? I’m interested to know your take on that version in particular because I’ve been debating getting that version since it was released. Great video once again Nick!
Another great review Nick 👍 Thinking about ZT knives I agree they should drop the number system they should name there knives how about ZT SHABAZZ OR ZT NICK Now that would be cool
I was going to pick this beauty up a while back until I saw how big it was. Some of the design choices I love, and a couple of them I don't. Hopefully a smaller version is in the works that addresses some of these issues.
As Nick attempts to balance the double edged sword of Reviewer -vs - Marketer. Thank you for the timely, thorough reviews of the stuff they a peddling.
Thanks for the review.. saw this in the spyderco catalog.. thought it looked cool... but tend to agree with your conclusions..... Hope you have a great day.. 😁😁😁
I tried it on my Stretch 2. It´s better when you put the pocket clip on the other side and carry it in your back pocket. That way you have the knife in reverse grip when you pull it out and your hand is in good position to stab someone right away, which is of course the most important thing for your edc knife. I wouldn´t reccomend whipping it out in the lunchroom to murder an apple. It could be frowned uppon. Although, it will give you (a general you, not you personally) a good reason to see the HR lady that you have a crush on...
Buying this knife is one of my big regrets. I hate the ergonomics. The handle is unreasonably thick, bulky. The lock bar digs into my finger because it doesn't have the same curvature as the finger choil, making the finger choil pointless. I also can't comprehend why Spyderco decided to drill holes on the bolsters. Nobody will put the pocket clip there. Even if 1 of 100000 prefers it that way it's just not worth to ruin the aesthetics of a knife like this. Overall this knife is a big fail.
Please review the ZT 0850 with blue carbon fiber scales!! Please!! I really wanna hear your take on its design and functionality!! Love your videos nick keep it up!!!
I think you get this knife to be eccentric over function. I got it because I like thick boiz :D The 452 cf was my previous carry knife as well as the contego and boker kwaiken.
Kinda reminds me of my Boker Marlowe Squail. A large bolster knife that made for a complex take down. Good looking, but big, heavy & quite muder-ee...never carry it.
No it's manual. Vallotton also made a custom hidden button" auto version where the scale slides over to deploy. But the normal production version is manual.
Anyone else love the sound of the lockup?
Music to my ears.🥰
I love The Spyderco Vallotton for it's built quality and drop dead gorgeous look. In my very large hands the liner lock and thumb studs are helping me to open and close the knife efficiently. Unfortunately this is not a EDC knife for me because the handle is slippery and every metal edge that you can find is sharp to the touch. Still this knife has a special place in my collection, despite the blade being thicker than a concrete milkshake!
I love mine, it was my first Spyderco. I stoned the sharp edges very lightly, now it's butter smooth.
Yes, great knife indeed, it fits Beautifully in my freakishly large hands.
This is the sexiest looking knife in my collection and I can overlook its shortcomings for the sheer beauty.
Same here. I have many Spyderco knives and the looks of this one is my favorite. Is it my EDC? no, I carry other Spydies for that. This one is my carry knife for when I feel like carying a unique-looking blade. That works well for what it is.

Exactly!😎 ❤👍🏻✌🏻
Great review. Thanks Jay Leno’s brother...
Nick, zip tie on the Delica? Were you going all high speed low drag for a moment there? The improvised Emerson wave?? 🙄🙄🙄🤓🗡
Haha lol

I own one myself and I love it. It is really big and heavy though and not convenient for EDC.
In pants or cargo shorts I don't even notice it.
I love the spydie hole but it's just hideous on this particular knife. I think it'd be more interesting if the hole was removed and the stops were thumb studs.
But there is no such thing as a spyderco with no hole on it
i respectfully disagree, this knife is beautiful
@@Yuki_Ika7 I'd say the ergos opening and closing are a bit awkward, but it is gorgeous for sure.
I completely agree Chris
Just sold mine to a friend. Great knife in every department except the weight and clip. I found myself never carrying it on account of it actually weighed heavily on any trousers I wore except for work pants and heavier denim.
I had no real love for this knife whatsoever....then I actually laid hands on one. I would love to have this knife in my collection. So unique and well made. I'm realizing lately that I have no idea what I actually think of a knife until I handle it. Another example: Rockjumper. Wasn't interested,then I handled one and love that knife now too. It's like a pm3 lw with a big ass warncliff blade on it and I like it. Example 3 was the pm3 light weight. Love it now too!!
I've been very happy with the action on the PM3 LW models I've used. smooth, almost broken in out of the box, and it surprises me because they're so light I don't expect the inertia of the blade to pull it open on flicking. I wish it were a little bigger but I guess I don't have a PM2 LW to compare yet.
Totally agree about putting hands on a knife. I see interesting looking knives at all kinds of different prices. Over the 50-100 dollar range I really want to hold one or have experience with a knife they are regularly compared to, perderably actually handling them.

Can't wait for the Ruike and the Lil' Native reviews!!!!
In the first 8 seconds of looking at it, I knew the design of the liner/lock release was going to be an issue. Thanks for a great review.
You hate it or love it..I love it. Oh,it doesn't void the warranty if you disassemble the knife. Great collector / status piece.
Spyderco (and Kizer and a couple of others) stop ruining perfectly good knives with all the mounting holes for pocket clips already. For crying out loud make right left specific models.

And that's barely an actually complaint because the hole makes it so much fun to open and close.
I carry tip-down. It started with my first Spyderco stainless POLICE model. Been carrying that way ever since. I can draw and open this way faster than when I carry my Autonomy 2, which is only set up for tip-up carry.
That knife is the Ronda Rousey of my collection....Very pretty and built like a tank.
Well said
Or the Nunes fight...?
Haha what a comparison.
**Insert obligatory witticism about being early to comment**

Propane Daddy calm down edgy boi
Never! It's my right! Ehehe!
Thick spines are tougher when it comes to stabbing.

I work with my hands so the pads in my right hand has become fairly thick for 5'7" 150 lbs.
I agree this knife needs an automatic version!!
Nick wakes up to a beautiful day. "It''s not the end of the world. I don't get it."
Nick, where do you think the inspiration for this knife came from?
I want one of these so bad but man that price tag 🥴 looks like something out of the 16th century
Man I love the look of this knife and everything about it is begging me to buy it but that damn liner lock popping out bugs me to no end.
Zip tie on the Delica? Just lost some points my friend.
Had to try it. But rest assured, it's untied!
Why the zip tie???
Jay c it acts as a "poor mans " Emerson wave
Nick, what is it exactly you think this knife is for?
I was going to comment on the video skipping between the Bad and the Ugly, but I see it was edited out intentionally for the disassembly voiding the warranty no longer being true, which I appreciate, although it was jarring while watching it. If this is going to be an issue for future reviews (no idea how many more Spyderco reviews you have left with this) I might suggest shooting a quick filler explanation instead and splicing that in.
Afraid, afraid, there is no afraid in the knife world..."Crying, who is crying, there is no crying in Baseball" (Tom Hanks)!! Cool knife...

Overall a pass for me but it still looks nice.
I don't think that's a zero grind, just another bevel. Zero grind would refer to a blade with no microbevel.
Lance Leon I didn't really know what to call it, I've seen that grind on WE knives and didn't really like sharpening them (just an unnecessary complication). They're vaguely reminiscent of like a double sided Scandi but kinda half assed (which in hindsight is probably what I meant to say but it's early so Zero grind is what I typed). That grind does make for a good cutter, just not the best for sharpening on a fixed angle system.
cameron utt yup, I hear you on the sharpening aspect.
Its been a few years since your initial review; do you know of any sources or sites that offer aftermarket accesories for this particular knife. I wanted to find options to smooth out the handle edges and get a thinner more grip on the scales
Ive always been really atracted to this design, but i had no idea how huuuuuuge it was. Its still beautiful tho
Scooter Grande i didnt say being huuuuuuge is a bad thing. Big knives are often more comfortable for me
That is one of my dream knives.
The other is the Rad knives field cleaver
What is the intended application of this thing?
mountainhobo to collect.
I love how you said this knife is more pretty then it's meant for the oil fields ....so true
Does anyone here know that the thumb hole acts a wave shape opening feature? So it catches on your pocket and opens as it comes out of the pocket?
It also has a hidden scale release
For the automatic version, yes.
Planning to use your Delica for tactical self defense purposes?
Wish Spyderco still made these
Great review Nick!
Ahh.. if I knew you wanted to review one I would have sent my concealed auto version
Saw this version the other day - it needs a TH-cam review
Namesi agreed... pvk posted something on TH-cam
In a comparison with the bradley 2 for the all other details ? The smaller version?
Nick? The blade is one of the best parts of this knife. Every knife does not have to be razor thin buddy.
Finally you put ziptie on delica :D
I know this is old..... But why would you Ever use a zip tie on the spyder hole
Good review. It is a good looking knife. The problem is I like to carry and use my knives. The thickness, weight and that hot spot liner lock are big detours for me.
“This is why we can’t have nice things...” 😆
How old is this review? the little version was out more than a year ago I thought...
about a year old he only just got around to uploading it
Has there ever been a knife where Nick didn't find any bad or ugly?
Apparently it is a double action on blade hq
IMO size is a fact, not a "good" or "bad".
Says a man who's clearly never carried an Espada XL.
Nick Shabazz LOL!
Do they all have that grind by the tip or did this one have a bad run in with a sharpening stone?
I can't say for certain, but that looks pretty damn professional
I looks like a German military knife from the early last century. I love it. But can someone tell me what justifies it's high price? The steel is not so special
What's up with the zip tie on the delica? I've seen a couple people doing that and I don't know why.
Poor man's Emerson Wave opener.
They really want a thumb stud
The blade will open as it catches on your pocket.
Poor man's wave and it is according to a knife friend of mine it don't work that well.
Mitchell Swartzendruber it works fairly well if you use the right size for the spydie hole. If the zip tie won't get tight it's the wrong size
If anyone is trying to sell this knife, I’d love to buy it from you!
I have one if still interested. Never used. Mint condition.
Was that the 52100 PM2 you compared it too size wise? I’m interested to know your take on that version in particular because I’ve been debating getting that version since it was released. Great video once again Nick!
Another great review Nick 👍
Thinking about ZT knives I agree they should drop the number system they should name there knives how about
ZT SHABAZZ OR
ZT NICK
Now that would be cool
Hey Nick love your reviews as always. Suggestion, you should review the Ruike P801SF. Nice looking budget gentlemens knife.
My next purchase!
This knife looks like a bayonet, with the loop rotated 90 degrees.
I was going to pick this beauty up a while back until I saw how big it was. Some of the design choices I love, and a couple of them I don't. Hopefully a smaller version is in the works that addresses some of these issues.
aswtx75 They made the lil vallotton last year
Yep I would say buy this one if you don't like return it and get the sub hilt
I'll bring oall my shoes and glasses
Ryan LaRoche haha...yasssssss. Love it. Always thought from the beginning.
As Nick attempts to balance the double edged sword of Reviewer -vs - Marketer.
Thank you for the timely, thorough reviews of the stuff they a peddling.
It's a weird tension, for sure. I try to do right.
Wow, this is an old vid
Be careful, it's an antique!
This knife is just plain ugly. Sometimes the Spydie holes seemed forced. It really ruined the Tighe Stick.
nah, man it looks like a crocodile face
Ever see something that you know is beautiful but that is just not for you? That’s this knife to me.
You should review the 0850. Let me know if you’re interested in a loaner.
...good review...more of a blade stop than thumb stud...'excellent build' and finish...really like this Vallotton...have a great week..
Two-handed closure like my Subvert. No problem if you know what you are dancing with.
If it was in stock it would already be mine
WhiteMountainKnives has one in stock in their sale knives
Thanks for the review.. saw this in the spyderco catalog.. thought it looked cool... but tend to agree with your conclusions.....
Hope you have a great day.. 😁😁😁
How come that Nick, Mr. Alltacticalthingsarestupid, is sporting a zip tie mod on his delica? :D
Gotta try it sometimes.
I tried it on my Stretch 2. It´s better when you put the pocket clip on the other side and carry it in your back pocket. That way you have the knife in reverse grip when you pull it out and your hand is in good position to stab someone right away, which is of course the most important thing for your edc knife. I wouldn´t reccomend whipping it out in the lunchroom to murder an apple. It could be frowned uppon. Although, it will give you (a general you, not you personally) a good reason to see the HR lady that you have a crush on...
Buying this knife is one of my big regrets. I hate the ergonomics. The handle is unreasonably thick, bulky. The lock bar digs into my finger because it doesn't have the same curvature as the finger choil, making the finger choil pointless. I also can't comprehend why Spyderco decided to drill holes on the bolsters. Nobody will put the pocket clip there. Even if 1 of 100000 prefers it that way it's just not worth to ruin the aesthetics of a knife like this. Overall this knife is a big fail.
It's the John Travolta of knives.
Totally goofy looking blade my god but I want one!
Please review the ZT 0850 with blue carbon fiber scales!! Please!! I really wanna hear your take on its design and functionality!! Love your videos nick keep it up!!!
Anyone else see this used in Gotham?
If this knife didn't have the Spydie-hump it would be one of the best looking knives. Instead it's ugly. I still like it though.
That knife is thicker than half the girls in my school!
I think you get this knife to be eccentric over function. I got it because I like thick boiz :D The 452 cf was my previous carry knife as well as the contego and boker kwaiken.
Kinda reminds me of my Boker Marlowe Squail. A large bolster knife that made for a complex take down. Good looking, but big, heavy & quite muder-ee...never carry it.
I love your accent!
''you some kinda wise guy or sumtin'' :-D
That is a beautiful knife oh my Lord.
Well I really wanted to like this video and thennnn I saw how many likes it currently has and yeah im not gonna be the one to change that lol
Very overbuilt yes but I love mine. One of the pretty boys of my collection.
It is very heavy.This is the only concern.
I spy a tactical zip tie wave mod
It's beautiful!
Is this not an auto?
No it's manual. Vallotton also made a custom hidden button" auto version where the scale slides over to deploy. But the normal production version is manual.
They should have wood handles for this. Maybe something grey.
Just seen the mini version of this knife on blade hq... Looks neat
No more spyderco for me after the price hikes they aren't worth the money anymore
Chris Howard. I'll never buy a spyderco again.
The price increase is egotistical in my opinion
Ed Vanek I completely agree 100%
Yea not for me I would spend 200 on a para 3 maxament
I like it too❤
i see you have added a zip tie to the ol'delica
it would be a good looking knife if that ugly thumb hole was gone. make it a flipper and it would be awesome.
Interesting how polarizing this knife is. I find it absolutely hideous. Would look much more fluid without the spydie hole.
