Ray is severely underrated imo, everything he comes out with is incredibly clean and well built without any extra 🐂 💩 or "cool" factor.
Thanks Jerad great list! We've had one hell of a year for new knives both high production and low production/custom. On top of that we've dealt with mostly if not normal manufacturing and shipping times.
Life is good! ✌️
Great list. I have seven of these. My top pick would be the Vision FG with the Sentinel Strike, Sokoke and Ekko close behind. So many great choices.
Man, soooo many great knives for the money, what a great time to be alive for us knifeaholics.
Please buy American. It’ll help our youth stay off dope N booze. Ty in advance!🤜🍼✌️🍔🔪🔪
@@ericpitre4031No, it won't but genuinely good for you on trying lol
I love my fg and escort they were my last 2 purchased blades before the guardian tactical 035 last week. For my first auto, I've been super happy.
Great list!
The new Miguron Centurion is pretty dang sweet too!
Good stuff as always, J-Rad!
👊🏻
I love seeing these lists. I'm maintenance over quite a few places. My center drive and arkfeld are dailies and my knives are revolving. I usually carry a sheepsfoot and a wharncliffe. The expensive ones sit or ride with me on off days but I like having many different budget knives that I'm not scared to beat up. And they all come from lists like this.
Nice dude, I love my Arkfeld, I started carrying a Kunwu sheepsfoot this year it's been nice!
Keep killing it Jared! This is a solid video.
Thx Jared love your quickies good balance between OCD review (not the person the disease) and real use scenarios
Absolutely great choices my friend, great vid as always 👌
Been using my vision fg daily for about 6 months. I really like it, very fun to play with and great for cutting hoses, cables and tubes.
Totally agree on the whole assisted blade thing not my choice either for the reasons you mentioned plus harder to close. So many great knives out there under the $100 price point. CJRB, Civivi, Kizer, Kubey, Miguron have been on the top of their game giving us amazing value for the build quality and materials you get. The CJRB Pyrite and Kubey Titanium Titius are also great knives that could have been on this list. Have the premium version of the Kizer Escort and it's my favorite cross bar lock that i have ever felt such a great improvement to the design. Thanks for the great vid and keep making sharp things fun and enjoyable.
Completely agree with the take on assisted knives. Though, my main gripe with them is that they're illegal to carry where I live. I'd love to carry my CRKT ritual because it's such a cool and unique knife, but I don't want to get arrested 😅😢
Very good energy in this video ! Thank you !!
It took about six or seven months for the omega springs to break on my escort. They broke about three weeks apart so they are built consistently. I love the escort it really is my most carried knife.
I love the Vosteed Night shade !! ^^
Excited to see the sentinel strike on there. Mine came screaming sharp with great action.
Thanks for the vid! I went w/ Sentinel Strike!
Despite how far companies have come with having smooth manual actions, I still think there is a place for a well done spring assisted action. In fact, my two assisted Kershaws (Tanto Cryo and Turismo that still uses PB washers before they switched the model to using KVT bearings) have a decently smooth action when the speedsafe assist is not engaged (not drop shut, but more hydraulically/glassy smooth). I could see assisted knives being enjoyed as a halfway between a manual knife and an Out the Side auto, however I only like them when they complement a good action as opposed to hiding a bad one (which is why I try to avoid almost any knife with only Teflon washers with few exceptions).
It's the Qubit for me. When you said it was like a bigger Chaparral you had me.
Someone who takes the fidget factory to a whole new level
BANG!!! The bellemy Labrador valkery and gator are badass
I agree about the assisted blades my only assisted knives are the leek and dividend, i have the magnacut versions of both
I have that very same Qubit and love it
Hey Sir thank you for all your hard work and passion you put in to you content and the work that goes in to it you get the thumbs up auto from me. You several other content creators are awesome I'd mention them but I'm a terrible speller and would feel bad for messing up there name/ channel
Nice in depth reviews, looking to move from my crkt m16-14 thing keeps falling apart. I need a work horse and something to take a beating. Any suggestions
Nice list, got a couple on the wishlist already. Thanks, Jerad! 👊
Q: What do you think of Civivi's Nitro V? I hear people are having problems with edge retention on the Vision FG.
People have problems with socks so I wouldn't worry about it.
Hello,
i really enjoy your videos!
from your experience would you recommend Civivi Elementum button lock or Elementum 2 with additional deployment method?
Regards from Poland! :)
Back in the day when I first started collecting knives I loved assisted opening. Quit collecting for about 12 years and was really surprised that no one likes them anymore, I I can definitely that for the reasons given. However, I’m curious I you or anyone you know has taken out the assistance? If so, how is the detention without. Just curious. Thank you for the videos !!!!!!!
Good list. Discontinued Endura wharncliffe in k390 selling for less than $100 a good deal
Replaced the clip of the vision with the one that came with the pyrite. Now it's great.
Love the Sokoke, but mine is really stiff on the drop. How is yours smooth?
I've taken it apart, cleaned it, and tried loosening the pivet a bit, but that just makes the blade have side to side play.
my go to list for under $100. Civivi sencut, vosteed, kizer, qsp.
Agreed on the vision fg, it's the best civivi and indeed best budget knife imo. If I bought one civivi for my small and sweet collection it would be vision fg.
If I were to ask for a fixed blade variant of the nightshade....what would you recommend ?
only one of my cars has a fixed top but the glass breaker is a nice touch
Civivi Amirtie is one I am looking forward to get.
Woah that yojimbo looks sweet.
Good review, Jerad. Can't agree with some of your choices, but a good video nonetheless. Thanks.
I bought the Drop Bear Titanium scales (blue yellow), i carry it at work, but man, it really sucks at opening boxes and removing packaging foil compared to the Civivi Elementum i used to carry every day, could it be that the blade needs sharpening or is it simply the geometry that isn't as well adjusted for the task?
I feel i might have to try more blade shapes before i can make my mind up
Kiser Brat is making me SMILE way way to much. For me the Brat at 90 bucks might be my favorite knife I have right now. That is insane to think about...
I’d been thinking for a long while of getting the Civivi Vision FG, but I’m thinking now that I should save up and get the Flytanium Arcade. 💸 🕹️
Bro that Jimbo with those Titanium scales looked Sweeeet.
Just ordered a cjrb ekko (j1929) based off some research I did this morning. Its been a while since I bought a new knife, and my current knife (a benchmade griptillian) is bad. It belonged to my brother and started life as a serrated blade. It was given to him by his father in law. Apparently the blade got messed up, so my brother ground it down into a tanto style blade, but he never really thinned the blade profile out to compensate for all the edge that got ground off. I need a good knife that will hold somewhat of an edge for me, all day long.. so figured it was perfect combo of ratty knife, but decent blade steel for holding an edge (154cm.) Unfortunately the blade is kind of short now though, as if it wasnt already short enough. I started carrying a benchmade sbk5000, but its really not ideal for the envornment I am in. I make the shells that they pour the liquid metal into for castings, and its incredibly sandy in there and clogs up the mechanisms. This brings me to my current arrangement, my benchmade sbk is getting beat up and I need something to replace it with. I have gone to a boker fixed blade, in a kydex holster/sheeth for my work setup, and purchased the CJRB for my daily (outside of work) knife. Appreciate you taking the time to review these knives for us! It was incredibly helpful when trying to pick one out! Ill report back when it arrives and tell you all about how awesome it is!
Finally! Someone said it! Down with assisted in 2023!
Under 100$ brings collecting into the realm of the many. I tend to swin a lot more in this puddle. Fun ta get a pkg. Great commercial. I wish ya good fortune.
its not a commercial, the ad you seen before the video was
I personally would have to put the Kizer Assassin XL on this list. Still don't think Kizer has topped that as far as button locks go. I'm hoping KnifeCenter or someone does an exclusive with Civivi for that Sentinel Strike so we can get some better steel; the only option right now is their Damascus, which is actually not bad, but only paired with some fairly ugly light green aluminum scales.
I'd say the Kizer Brat needs to be on this list as well
I actually was 100% going to buy the sentinel strike but as soon as I seen that blade steel I said no I would rather they use nitro v or 14c28n and charge more and I would buy it immediately but not with that steel.
Spring assisted knives work for me as I am right hand challenged not handicapped but can not open my right hand and have arthritis in my left hand which makes it hard for me to just flick open a knife. I respect your views on these products but take into consideration those who may need a blade assist knife. That being said I still give you a great rating and thumbs up on this video.
@neevesknives why didn’t the Kansept Reverie make the cut??? 😮
To someone who owns a sheepdog. In your opinion can it qualify as a work knife. I really like the kizer sheepsfoot, blade shape for working around in animal pens, but I like to use my knife so I don't want something for show.
🤔 I'm surprised I didn't see the Kizer Assassin in your list. I think action, feel and sound of that knife are outstanding. Only the blade steel could use some improvement.
Btw, I can't agree more regarding A/O knives.
...maybe someone can pass the word onto Kershaw.
Love the list!!! I know most all will disagree., but I pick the Ekko over them all. I would go Drop Bear, then Vision next.
Pyrite XL is one of the best under $75 for sure!
The superlock on the Vision FG is destroying my index finger, but I love the knife...
I would LOVE it if Vosteed made a 4 inch blade version of The Nightshade.
yeah im trying to get them to do that
ya the vison is the best i still haven't got one those yet
Civivi really did us dirty by discontinuing the Pintail before we idiots could understand that it is a perfect end game user knife
I can split the atom with my Civivi Vision nitro v but can’t get a good edge on my Miguron Moyarle 14C28N. Does 14C like lower grit?
I think the bareknuckle copper xl is unassigned and great jus more thsn limit of this vid lol
Oh my God!!! You forgot the Miguron Moyarl on the list!?!! That's inexcusable!!!
The best 50 knife on the planet
So this is the sweetspot for me. I feel like a lot of knife can be had in the 50 - 100 dollar range.
Frustratingly I decided I was going to get something a little more expensive on the 1st and I decided on the Microtech polymer. It literally just came out and they are all sold out and people are selling them for double the price on ebay. I hate people who buy just to flip.
Other than the sentinel strike I'd say you were batting 1000
That clutch lock sheepdog is $120 before tax. Not sure if the regular version is what you meant
I hope they come out with a different blade style for the vision. It's not my jam.
Kizer Brat? That is a phenomenal knife for the price.I would have put it ahead of The Civivi Sentinel Strike.
the brat is great and coulda made the list for sure i wouldnt have put it in the strike spot but still
Which ones have 3 inch blades?
The riff should be on this list.
Is kizer 20cv heat treat well?
For $70-100 I'd rather get a s35vn 3v or 154. I picked up a brass scaled s35vn for $90.
This is an excellent list! Love the Vision FG, Qubit, and Drop bear except mine is the aluminum handle version. The rest of the knives on this list are in my sights especially that Sentinel Strike.
All chiner special made by commies. For greedy USA corperate owners. Plz buy American. ✌️🍼🤜🔪🔪
What about the Altis?
I'm looking for a good EDC on a budget, but instead of narrowing the list down, you keep making it longer. How can there be so many great knives under $100? I don't think I'll ever decide, so thanks for that. Peace out.✌
Same with me bro.
ya I don't really go for assisted knives either
I can't see a single folder in this price bracket which comes close to the unfortunately disc. Civivi Riffle in action, looks and performance...
I like the qubit shape but I don’t like that’s it’s a plain smooth aluminum scales.
There's a titanium version now
@@NeevesKnives the WE version?
@whatfreedom7 yes the we qubit I have a video testing both side by side if you wanna check it out, I'm doing one on all the visions next
Vosteed nightshade is hands down the best pocket knife under a hundred bucks?
I do love that one as well I hope they make a larger version with a top liner
I think the reason kershaw uses assisted opening besides just being lazy about tuning the action is that most people that don't know much about knives see "assisted" and think it's like an auto and hence cooler. Either way it's dumb
He should start with the criteria he is applying across the knives. I’ve started a collection to determine what criteria matter to me. They have changed with using alternative designs.
I at first thought steel was most important. No longer. Steel is a discriminator but for most uses budget steel such as D2 or 8C12Cr are fine. I have Nitro V, S35VN, and Magnacut. But they do not make the knife work better.
Blade shape may matter for your purpose.
Handle size and shape matter.
Opening method matters. I have come to much prefer thumb flipper. Assisted.
Closing matters. Button or axis lock much better than liner or frame lock because you close with one hand.
The clip matters a little. It should go up to the end of the handle and not protrude to catch on pocket.
Several of his knives do not work for me.
They are not all going to work for everyone, I do have specific videos for specific people this is more of best quality, build etc for the money. I review knives for everyone
How do you spell that first knife?
everything is linked in the description
Jerad, what about ADA or the elderly or people with arthritis? Assisted knives serve these people.
I think you’re referring to automatic knives. If you get a flipper with a good detent it is the same effort to open as an assisted knife.
No, that isn't true. @@bpsdetailing8822
Agreed Sean…..that’s why I carry assisted even tho I own a collection of over 100 folders.
I am not a fan of 14c28 steel at all. I am a big fan of D2 tool steel, and anything 154cm and above. All awesome steels.
when you present a knife, do a cutting test with a sheet of paper, you might be surprised. Thanks my friend
Man, after the debacle of leaving out the moyarl on the last video, i had to unsubscribe. 😅 Absolute bangers in this list. Just got the FG and ita phenomonal. Really want the sentinal strike.
Blade hq has the civivi baby banter in s35 for around $100! And I got the Kizer bugai in 3v for $90!!!
But the Kizer mini critical in 3v for $100 is like the benchmade immunity but BETTER and
$170 less!!😊
Love the Bugai!
Kershaw Iridium.
Whoa slow down partner. Some people like assisted knives solely because they're fun.
👍🍻
Hey Mr. Neeves, just wanted to let you know for future reference that your pronunciation of Coniferous V is incorrect, it's coniferous with an F like in the word conifer, like a coniferous tree
And it’s Coniferous Five, not “vee.”
Hooked on front flippers much?
only 2 knives of the list had front flippers
Assissted knives are 4 people who enjoy knives thst have arthritis!
Assisted for arthritis
Absolutely I did not buy the Sentinal Strike is the steel. I am on my own personal crusade against D2. Not bc it is bad but bc this is 2023 and I can’t see the justification when there is 14c and nitro v available.
Where's the BANG Jerad, you slipping lately
Civivi says the new Vision FG is $118. Coniferous as in Evergreen trees, not Carnivorous. Dude slow down!
I agree 100%. Assisted Knives are hot garbage.
FAANAAMINOL!
The Nightshade has got to be good, since it's not a good looking knife. It's like that ugly girlfriend that's not much to look at. But Man O Man she is sweet
$100 knife made in China for $5
Thumbs down thanks to the nasty assisted knife comments. Works great for 70 year old man with weak hands. (Not all of your subscribers are 20-40 years old Jerad.)
