Just got one of the standard models and WOW!. What a great knife for under $60.00 . Absolutely perfectly tuned axis lock right out of the box. Fit and finish and sharpening are all spot on also.
This design is growing on me. I like the color scheme and the two blade steel options are solid. I agree that a larger sized version of this one would be a great idea.
Thanks for the vote of confidence. I also believe that blades should be centered from the factory. And all screws tight, too. Bought a Houge deka 2 with loose screws and off center blade and POOF! Out comes the hogue defense team, telling me it's no big deal. If a $5 knife should be centered, then a $145 should be as well. Especially from a US OEM.
I have a regular Nightshade and really like it, but I wish they'd make an XL. The regular I think has a 3.3" blade, but feels a lot smaller due to the blade shape. But my wife walked in while I was watching this and LOVED this knife, so I hope they make more.
I hear your Mini Bugout theory and raise you the Spyderco Dragonfly! I swear to god that thing can exist in any pocket forever and you won't know it's there. 🤣
Wish these were still available. Laughed/smirked as my mini bugout has seen the wash once... And all but one of the handful of my baby banters have experienced the spin cycle several times.
Don’t know if youve managed to snag one yet but Blade HQ has the satin and blue and the black orange s35vn. Knife center has those as well as a satin with orange hardware
Got the full size flipper version and it was very stiff. Would not flip out without considerable pressure. Thought it needed breaking in but no go. Had to return it. It's a shame. I really like the design.

@@derekwedge09 Dang, please tell me that at least one of you has an actual lanyard on his knife and uses it like a chained weapon! 😎 Edit: With overhead spins and all!
I don't care for the orange thumb studs. To me, they look like plastic, which cheapens the aesthetic. Easy enough to change though. Otherwise, very cool.

Are you keeping this one or would you be willing to sell it?

This thing is a mini bugout killer for sure. Love this knife. Always going back to it lately! 🙌
I have the 14C28N version in both sizes, and they are probably my most carried knives bc they are so capable. Awesome knives

Agreed. I was going to get the Reg Nightshade but there's no lefty holes. 😕😕

These knives are my absolute favorites
Bruh, I want one of these so bad.. The all black with orange looks so good too me.
Vosteed nightshade started with a larger model, back flipper with a liner lock. Got one of those, love it.

Mine came with 2 extra omega springs in a little baggie.

Can't wait for the full sized nightshade to get a crossbar lock. It's one of the best blade shapes
I really want one of these. They should put this lock on full size Nightshade
These have been sold out for months 😞

i don't have one yet but i can guarantee a nightshade will end up in my collection at some point...

All 4 lanyard people on Earth when you said it has a lanyard hole:
"Oh thank goodness"
The minis have been sold out for several weeks now
I really like this design and $99 is a great price.
The Ares for a black out version win.
Almost perfect nice cept for size and maybe blade hole but keep thumb studs. Bet they fly off the shelves
I have been wanting one forever it seems like but can’t get my hands one one 😢
Yeah I'd love one.... Can you do so?
Ive been on a small knife kick lately dont know why cuz my hands are huege bruh. Wish I didn't miss out on this 1 heard great things!
I bought one when it first came out. The detent(?) was so weak, I returned it.
Well now, I got out my percentage ruler and this clip is 42.78% of the length of the handle. Blah😂
That is the mini-version of the Nightshade.
I want one of these, good review. Thanks
Reminds me a little bit of a chaparelle or however you spell that
Yo great knife! I have it, wait this is black blade? I don't have that.
Has the carbon fiber version been released in the past or is this an upcoming new release?
Been released already
Only knife I ever washed was a baby banter lol
The bigger one might be ok.

It wouldn't be hard to use grams and mm for the rest of the world :p

No leather slap. No box. Whats next? No spaghetti sandwiches?
Grrrrr I want that mini nightshade oh so badly. Nice video MC 👍 thanks for sharing you dirty dog 🐕
no card slap = bad day for me
"the knife lanyard community" has been offended by Metal Complex
my glove size is AVERAGE
It's centered dude lol
Im pretty sure glove sizing is gender neutral. So women typically wear XS, S, or M and men usually wear M and up.
Every video i see on this version i want to downvote. Damn USA only production run. :D Can't wait for them to make one non us customers.
Well I don't make the knife so that doesn't make sense.
I would buy this off of you if you plan on selling it! 🫠
Hey did you get one the other day? They sold out again last night
