I’m laughing so fn hard because I’m a mechanic & I walk around work with absurdly huge wrenches just because I like them. I need one of these for the same reason!
I'd say the espada still has it's title, this is a display piece, the espada has usable sized grips (albeit two hand friendly 😅) and is actually still meant to be carried.
Espada > classy >ment for use and carry >Doesn't need a screw to secure it Fenris > looks cheap > literally just a showpiece > liner lock lmao Microtech halo XXL > no point needed
These guys need to talk to Andrew Demko about getting a strong lock on this thing. Very cool looking knife, you're braver than I, using that knife to actually chop. Solid vid.
This knife was designed specifically NOT to lock so that it would comply with German knife laws. The designer, Joerg Sprave, made it as both a collector’s item and as a political statement to show how dumb Germany’s knife laws are. He has a TH-cam channel where he shows the design process and explains further. He’s also got a lot of other cool videos
@@thomasjenifer2468 This is not made to use like a machete. I am sure if you tried to use it that way, the handle would break apart due to the blade to handle weight ratio. If you want a folding machete, Gerber makes one that is better suited for the task. FYI. 🔪🖤🗡
Pretty sure that screw is meant to deploy further into the stock of the blade, as Midgards-messer has been Uber lock obsessed almost to a fault offer employing secondary if not the ridiculous redundancy of a secondary’s secondary lock for good measure, but as I have not handled, and have not seen employed other then your method I will have to agree on the footage I have seen, and that the screw if utilized as shown in this video, offers little to none added structural integrity. Thanks for another fantastic video. You’re the best.
Nice job..great presentation...I watched the first one yesterday and although this one is more precise....It isn't as "cute" as the first one....that said..both are informative and very entertaining..Thank you!
Ok. First Midgards messer the Fenris ( wolf) THEN Svord Carcass Splitter....im in love with this new dimension of my knives hobby: knives that bring a smile to you
What a gigantor kaiju slaying blade. It looks like that bolt should go all the way through one side and thread through the other, so it's fully imbedded, weird. I like it. Also, LOVE the bess tester in videos.
Melissa! Break out The Fenris! The Lake Michigan Lighthouse is frozen over solid from the arctic blast. Heh. That lighthouse has been through many a storm. It’ll be fine.
It legal to conceal carry a folding knife of any length where I live. Fix blade have to be open carry. So if this thing had a better lock then I could have a "sword" legally conceal behind my back in the downward draw position for easy access underneath my coat. I can finally carry a HUGE blade without anyone throwing a fit or calling the cop. It just the perfect knife for assasinating all my Amazon packages.
Mind you don’t clear the whole table opening that! 😅 or the back of the blade whacks one of the guest’s in the face lol. You could cut your own food and offer to cut theirs for them all the way across from the other side of the table :D
Why the screw? Why not just use an extra lock like the one on the Luzon? Once that extra lock is pushed forward, it impossible for the liner lock to move and the blade folding backward.
Now that this GIANT Behemoth is out, we can mess around with something that still pushes the envelope, but is way oversized...let's start with 8 inch blade version and try buttonlock.
I will.carry that edc just like i carry my eagle.talon by rmj tactical.this would make me consider not edc my tomahawk sapper.pride never died so.ive never take it off for like 10 years

Te amo
I like the knife/sword but liked seeing how much fun you were having playing with it. Glad to see you smile as always.

Melissa, do you believe there is a difference between ruling the world and influencing the world? 👑
Never. I like your eyes. You are mrs or miss??
You get to have fun buying awesome knives and I enjoy watching it. This is a win win.
My daughter lives your shorts and we've watched all your recent videos. Keep it up!
This thing is just pure badassery!!! Love ittt
That deployment at the start was smooooth Melissa 😂👏 I’d have lost an arm!
The Cold Steel Espada XL has abdicated it’s throne in shame.
The espada is less likely to fail
@@ericwilliams3413 That is true. No way I’d trust a liner lock more than the Tri-Ad, especially at this size of a knife.
The cold steel Espada XL has a far better locking system....
I'd say the espada still has it's title, this is a display piece, the espada has usable sized grips (albeit two hand friendly 😅) and is actually still meant to be carried.
Espada
> classy
>ment for use and carry
>Doesn't need a screw to secure it
Fenris

Microtech halo XXL
> no point needed
Can't wait to see it's final form.
That sucker is a beast , haha . This knife has probably put a lot of smiles on peoples faces . What an awesome piece
Holy Moly i love it! 🙂
The size of the Cold Steel XL ESPADA is the upper limit for a folding knife, in addition to the size there is also the issue of the locking mechanism
yeah the espada is huge, but still practical. relatively speaking lmao
it will be interesting to see if they end up tweaking this one a bit
I could see doing this with a lockback and it might be more practical!
If i ever start a collection of huge things this is top of the list.

man Demko knows his locks! And yeah, i was hopping pretty darn lightly and giving as much clearance as possible ha

@@alexanderren1097than on top of all else, it will put some Jorge Sprague in my life. THAT alone is worth admission
😱THAT IS A MONSTER KNIFE!!! More of a novelty in my opinion.😂 Thank you for the great video! I love your format!!! Short and to the point.🔪🖤🗡
Not a very practical knife but somebody would buy it. Not really sure what the purpose is. I'm sure Genghis Khan Would have liked it very much!😅😂
If you were prepper it would be basically a machete with its own housing

I don’t know what I’d use it for but I need it.
Bought one.
Thanks for the video.
Nice work Melissa as always -
4:05 the pocket clip and the whole thing comes with a pair of XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXL trousers xD

That would make an awesome back scratcher
Nice job..great presentation...I watched the first one yesterday and although this one is more precise....It isn't as "cute" as the first one....that said..both are informative and very entertaining..Thank you!
haha thank you, the live videos are so awkward. i ended up privatizing it because the audio delay on it was so terrible in the posted version :(
@@MelissaBackwoods I feel very lucky to have born witness to that effort then....keep up the fantastic work ,love your video shorts too.
Honestly I would love if they make it longer but slimmer so it can keep the weight but having more reach as practically a folding sword-short spear.
Insane!!! Of course I want it!!!
Imagine someone walking with this thing dangling from the belt. 😁
Just needs a "pocket" clip
This is such a powerful video 🍃😳🍃
Ok. First Midgards messer the Fenris ( wolf) THEN Svord Carcass Splitter....im in love with this new dimension of my knives hobby: knives that bring a smile to you
The giant sword knife is ridiculous in the BEST of ways. I want one so much, just for the confusion it would cause.
I love your cute videos. 😻 Very fun and informative. Please keep it up. 👍
Hola Melisa. Una hermosa navaja con.o tu belleza. Saludos DESDE BUENOS aires argentina
That's huge 😮
Que admirable hibrido entre: cortaplumas-navaja-machete.. exquisita arma
Loving this!❤
Hear Hear ~~~~ tell the manufacturer
WE WANT A POCKET CLIP !
Paul Bunyan is calling.
Dundee, nicknamed the crocodile, would envy such a knife.😊 Greetings from the Russian Federation!
Jörg Sprave has a new "spin" on that style knife, which has the blade almost 2x the length of the handle...
Love from India ❤
Shaq finally got a pocket knife he can use 😂
What a gigantor kaiju slaying blade.
It looks like that bolt should go all the way through one side and thread through the other, so it's fully imbedded, weird.
I like it.
Also, LOVE the bess tester in videos.
4:47 Well I’m right here you know, ready to be loved…😂
Very very wonderful and useful it's
Melissa! Break out The Fenris! The Lake Michigan Lighthouse is frozen over solid from the arctic blast.
Heh. That lighthouse has been through many a storm. It’ll be fine.
Stocking stuffer at Xmas ❤
I love the videos you make
aw thank you!
No I should be saying thank you to you for making these awesome videos
I love it ❤
This is no longer a knife. Ultimate weapon folding holy macaroni sword. Thanks for this video
I want a couple myself
That's one of those just gotta have it, for the hell of it
Great video 👍

Good Tuna slicer.
The Real... HULK Knife!!! 💪🏾😁
Need this in my life. Cause why not?
its the most necessary unnecessary knife
@@MelissaBackwoods yes and a pocket clip would be nice to attach to the MOLLE webbing of backpack for quick access
That’s just amazing 🤩
Ok
Love it!
That thing doesn't need a pocket clip, it needs a rifle sling!
yes. this.
I love it! It’s cool
She is packing! Such a DAMN knife holyy
I want one 😍
Awesome, I dont know anything about knife designt but i feel like it will be easier to handle with a narrower blade. Have you considered it?
Woo I seen this one before backwoods
You are awesome 👏
Gorgeous
I hope cold steel makes a bigger knife now.
as soon as she flicked that monster open, Crocodile Dundee came to mind! 🤣
Screw should be a bolt with a cotter
pin on the end.
Mind you don’t clear the whole table opening that! 😅 or the back of the blade whacks one of the guest’s in the face lol. You could cut your own food and offer to cut theirs for them all the way across from the other side of the table :D
Oh you would get that.
My inner 15 years old says "gimme"
Why the screw? Why not just use an extra lock like the one on the Luzon? Once that extra lock is pushed forward, it impossible for the liner lock to move and the blade folding backward.
i still think it would be awesome to have that on your back to edc lmao! no but for real thats such a nice collectors piece!
haha indeed. would need to attach some straps to it
Yes; I think that I have a spare rifle sling...
👍🏻 nice
Correction. Yes we do need this
TENKEUO❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Cool.
They were right - it's huge but I don't know how I'd use it.
best described as a folding glaive clearly intended for 2 handed use
They're gonna make an appendix carry sheath for this, right?
Elegiste bien. 25 años para una vivencia.
I need this
Beauty with brian is dangerous combination
But Beauty with weapon is Deadly combination
But i just love this beauty ❤ 😍
Perfect for edc. You never know when basketball players would attack you in a dark alley.
exactly
Улыбка от удовольствия использования этого огромного ножа не сходит с ее лица на протяжении всего видео))), этой девушке нравятся большие ножи))
😮 mega 🔪
it would have been more functional as a tool if it had a narrower hilt and a lighter thinner blade given that its totally massive in length
You make Nice video's! ❤
Please get a Viking Wood Splitter is you want to chop some wood! I have one and it is awesome!
The knife reminds me of the movie Conan, except he had a big Sword 😮
Absolutly insane and useles.... is it ? Yes you can use it for what? I dort care, I ordered it anyway😅 now waiting to get it😊
😢I just ordered it about 3 days before Christmas as my favorite online dealer had them and I can trust that
Hey I am looking for a budget friendly fixed blade with a finger hole with a kydex sheath, any recommendations?
I'm getting one
I want but I can't afford. I am going to look around for cheap giant pocket knives though.... or make my own cheap and more than likely unsafe one.
i want one..take care gorgeous lady
I need a couple of these for the kids stocking at Christmas!! Damn folks it's a joke!!🤪
