Serious question: how come you guys don’t put some cool Knife Center stickers in with knife shipments so you can represent on my toolbox?
Ditto!
Stickers are underrated.
Yes. More stickers or patches and less wine vouchers
Yes we need more stickers
Yes stickers, just like BladeHQ!! I got 3 stickers with my latest BladeHQ order and I only ordered 1 knife.
DCA, I enjoy pairing a modern folder primary knife with a traditional as a secondary. This gives me an excuse to carry more knives and lets me "cover more bases". Can you recommend some primary/secondary knife pairings with complementary designs, aesthetic, blade shapes, blade steels, functions, etc.?
I like doing a big/small carry. Usually a standard sized folder paired with a fifth pocket sized option, I was using a button lock Elementum and a Sog Cash Card but have since then moved onto carrying a Paramilitary 2 and Para 3 combo, but I'm considering opting for a fixie in the future for the small carry.
Hi David. I don’t know if the information is available. Could you do a video showing knives officially issued to army/police units? Thanks
Police departments don't issue knives. Certain military units do. I believe currently Ontario knives are the typical issued knives. Basically the kabar style knife just a different company.
There are about a dozen knives in the military/federal supply system that I know of. They include the Benchmade AFO auto, Gerber Applegate combat folder, various bayonets, the Air Force and Army aircrew survival knives, and a few Gerber multitools. The bayonet and survival knives are issued by units to persons deemed to need them. Some units may chose to purchase and issue folders, but 90% of the time service members carry what ever knives they can buy at the PX or elsewhere at their own expense.
I’m sure official use is wider than that. Police EOD and divers for instance must be issued knives. How about CIA?
I see you guys at @KnifeCenter that you really take care of the commenters. I appreciate it slightly larger then average. Thank you. :)
Mr. Anderson, part question/part episode idea: talking about blade steel, can we get a selection of knives that are in your opinion the ideal combination of steel properties and knife specs? Sort of a visual dictionary of what all those steel numbers and letters actually mean. Your big brain knife knowledge never disappoints!
As a hired apprentice at LTWK you really learn how resilient some material are such as micarta
I love my full size Adamas (The exact model shown in video) as my EDC carry, when I'm not carrying that I usually carry my s35vn QSP Penguin with the marble carbon fiber scales. My Food knife is my customized blackout Opinel No.9 Carbone. The knives I hand to people if they need to make a quick cut are my Spyderco tenacious, Civivi Baklash, and my CRKT Folts Minimalist cleaver. The knife I use the least is the ZT 0450 Sinkevich as it was my first $100+ knife and a gift. Other than that I have an old AK bayonet with bakelite handle that just sits around not doing anything.
Holy **** the frenzy is scary as hell.. lol!
Thanks for the video guys awesome as usual !
Thanks for all you do!
The SOG Terminus XR is an awesome knife. I've carried one for about 2 years now, and it's bulletproof.
Simultaneously pulling out 3x espada xl would definitely scare em 😄
DCA and KC staff,
Hi folks. I really appreciate the work all of you put into your programs and really look forward to when new episodes come out! Anyways, I picked up a couple of Mora blade blanks and was looking to make a handle for one from a deer antler we found out back, as well as one from some walnut that we had taken down a few years ago. Any tips for finishing these up such as using a bolster/guard vs ferrule or pins vs epoxy? Thanks in advance and I sincerely wish you guys all the luck in the world with your projects going forward.
It’s funny my friends always bug me for having my pockets full of knives and edc stuff. But they almost use my stuff more than me because i always have what they need at the time
David, I'm not sure there is a blade as intimidating as that hooked recurve serrated Spyderco Civilian: it just screams, "mutilation!"...
DEFINITELY. got one meself and that thing is a pocket chainsaw. 😳
Hi DCA,
I’m from Germany, where we have that weird knife law. So therefore I’m looking for an medium sized edc folder like para 3 or bugout for example. Should have a lock, but two hand opening (!), deep carry pocket clip, price up to 180$ or less.
Keep up the great work!
Greets 👋🏻
Would also like to say, my first real edc knife I bought was that SOG terminus xr per your recommendations, and I've not regretted it! It's my current benchmark to what I need as an edc
Hi David,
My first question was answered brilliantly, so here I go again! Hope you can help me out with another one similar to my 1st question:
I'm looking for a folding knife, with the following features:
1) Flipper (that becomes a "guard")
2) Axis or Similar Cross-Bar Lock (**MUST** be bank-vault, bomb-proof strong)
3) Thumb Hole, either oval or round, doesn't matter, but **MUST** have it...
4) About 3" or more Blade Length
5) Pointy, not Wharncliffe, but needs some belly.
6) Optional, but would be game-winning: Full Flat Grind, finger choil, assist or bearings in the pivot and Deep Carry Pocket Clip
7) See if you can recommend me a budget and a premium version each.
Thanks so much!
1) My experience is that many law enforcement agencies don't issue knives. For fixed blades I used a TOPS Mil-Spie 5 & Ontario/Ranger RD6 both solid knives can be used for rescues, forced entries etc. Not interested in anything fancy must be tough & reliable. 2) For tip/soft pruning I use a Delica. For anything larger I use secateurs (or saw) so that I make a straight clean cut. A serrated blade knife would probably work for some hard pruning but may not give a clean cut. Another great FAQ vid.
Besides the dozier and rat 2 what are some good inexpensive knives for lefty’s 3” or less?
Hey DCA,
I've always been under the impression that a liner lock is a weaker style of lock. But some tactical/ hard use knives use a liner lock. Emerson, Fox, Extrema Ratio, for example. What gives?
It is a weak lock compared to most but most can still hold 100 pounds or more.
The worst enemy of liner/frame locks are quick hard impacts. Slow overload testing, while useful data, is rarely how locks have failed for me. Also of course construction and appropriate blade pivot, tang, handle/frame construction will play a part. In most cases modern folders from well-known companies will not fail you except in cases of knife abuse.
The thicker/robust and tougher (heat treat) the liner lock the better - titanium vs aluminum vs stainless steel and what alloy/grade is used?
I've wondered the same thing. I've been interested in certain tactical or "hard use" knives, but get turned off from the liner locks. I would like a variety outside of my cold steels...
Thanks for another great video. After looking at David's favorite SAK, the S18 looks interesting. Looks very similar to my favorite, the Fieldmaster. Although without the parcel hook.
I rarely(never) use the hook,but would appreciate the main locking blade.
I will be shopping soon. Thanks
I've carried a kabar tdi knife for years. Nothing fancy, sharp at the tip, sharp fixed blade, what more do you need.
A question mark
Hey DCA, I was wondering what you think is the best collaboration knife(knife made with the collaboration of two or more brands/makers)
On the tactical knife question, all the military guys I know carry CRKT M16s. There tough enough for their needs but don't break the bank if they break or disappear.
Hi dca is m9 Ontario bayonet a good companion for hiking/camping if you don't mind the weight?
And also thanks for your very helpful and useful videos
If you are concerned about the dent in handle for the bow drill check out a White River knife- they have one with a metal piece in it
Hi DCA and Seth, thanks for your work! Do you happen to know if there’s any chance that Spyderco or Benchmade make CPM MagnaCut available in their regular production knives some day?
What are your recommendations on small edc/pocket/neck fixed blades? Thank you so much!
cold steel mini leatherneck size is abt 7 inch total (comes in tanto,dagger/spear point clip point) and is also very affordable coming in at right about 30 dollars
I get that a lot with the S.O.G Seal XR flipper , the "persuasion tool" is just "tacticool" & really doesn't serve a purpose. To each their own , personally I appreciate the striking pommel & can see right away the benefits that it provides in self defense / survival situations.
SOG XR - I have one of the early carbon fiber/CPM-S35VN versions that has the same gaudy "SOG" clip I HATED. I sent an email to SOG and mentioned that many of us hated carrying such a not-subtle pocket clip. They wrote back in 1 day saying they were aware and they sent me - FREE of charge - the new slim pocket clip. One Torx bolt and I had replaced the clip, now I carry my CF SOG XR knife in my regular daily rotation.
Hey DCA, I love knives that are a bit gimmicky or have a strange opening mechanism, I've already got a CRKT Van Hoy Snaplock and a Daktyl, and was wondering if you had any suggestions for others?
Hey DCA, I am very new to the knife scene but your videos have me on the verge of becoming a collector... thanks! :D
Just wondering what your recommendations would be for the best fidget friendly/most satisfying action folding knifes would be in say a more budget price range, mid range and at the money no object range. They don't need to be hard working (just used to open boxes and stuff) but having something that feels good to play with is a must! Thinking pretty much anything except a balisong... feel like I would definitely hurt myself with one of those. Cheers!
I love this series. I like to save up a bunch of them and have it on the tv while I'm cleaning house before weekend guests.
Hi DCA & Seth - any suggestions for a grey man knife? Something that goes unnoticed but is very capable for both EDC & tactical type uses?
Ideally not automatic or assisted, and ~middle size blade (3.25 - 3.75 inches).
Looking forward to hearing what you come up with! Thanks!
DCA, really enjoy the show, and thank you for your hard work! My question is, is that i am looking for preferably a folder "hawkbill style" knife to strip wires. Usually bigger wires. It has to be tough and hold a good edge. Im curious to see the same, however in a fixed blade as well. Thanks again, and good luck! 🇺🇸
Hey DCA What should be my first $200 + folder? My collection is 16 pieces deep currently with most of them in the $50 - $80 range as I tried to determine what types of mechanisms and materials I prefer, which was fruitless because I like them all. That said I prefer knives with more than one opening method as I like having a way to open it slowly should I need to. And I don't want anything too tactical looking. Thanks
Currently I find myself edc'ing the Kershaw Shuffle 2 Tanto for it's lightweight and multi functional use, any suggestions for a similar knife if better quality? Thanks in advance
hey DCA, im after a modern traditional folder with a roundish tip or sheepsfoot style blade, needs pocket clip and some fidget factor.
Also a fixed blade for 90 percent food prep and 10 percent camp uses.
budget is loose but everything here in Australia costs near double!
Thanks
hello DCA
i have a traditional knife in 4116 steel which i love and adore alot but the issue with it is that its not as slicey as it used to be when i bought it i mean i could get it shaving sharp but not as slicey as my other knife aka paper gliding
did i screw up the sharpening or did i gave it a conved edge accidentally
i hope you help me with this one
Hi DCA, what are the best knives that are underpriced? not necessarily budget but a knife that you think should cost more becues of a high end materials, good construction or design.
Hey, DCA and crew, great job on the videos! I've got a KniFAQ question. I've recently done some studying on my genealogy and discovered that I had ancestors from Goteborg, Sweden. I think it'd be cool to honor that heritage in my EDC, so I was looking for information on any Swedish knifemakers. I already know about Morakniv, but was wondering if there are any good, folding, EDC knives originating in Sweden. Alternatively, are there other traditional knives manufactured in Sweden and available in the U.S.? Thanks!
Great episode. Thomas was on fire this week!
I like the hatchet knife at the end
Hey DCA, I NEED HELP!!!
I am getting into knives and the first high end knife that I bought is the Spyderco Advocate with the M4 blade, which is not so good vs corrosion, I always put WD-40 to prevent corrosion but it stills rust a little bit, so I have 2 questions.
How to take off the little particles of corrosion without scratching the blade and what is the best type of oil to use to avoid corrosion.
Thank you!
WD-40 is a water dispersant, but there are far better things for protecting from corrosion. Barkeeper's Friend to remove the spots, and Tuf Cloth for protection. -DCA

DCA, seeing all these new, beautiful knives come out, there are quite a few that don't offer lefty pocket clips. Do you know why so many manufacturers omit this from their designs? Also, any suggestions for pocket carry as a lefty with a right only clip? Love the videos, keep up the great work!
I edc a hawkbill every day. As an electrician I use one to strip romex
Hi David C. Andersen, I would like to know when the concept of edc came about and what were the first folding knives to be produced within this concept. Thank you very much. R. Bucci.
Dave! Where ya been buddy? If possible, I would like to see a vid about all 4 inch blades, both fixed and folders….
Love the channel, I took your advice and got a Kershaw launch 1 as my first auto (Love it!). What would be your pick for my next auto...in the $250 range? Thanks in advance DCA.
Go for an OTF - Microtech, Benchmade, Heretic - all offer great choices. Some think it is too small, but I really like the Microtech Exocet personally. They start around $250: kcoti.com/2WFunD6
Hey DCA, I really enjoy carrying a traditional pocket knife for whittling and carving, my current whittler is a Congress style Boker, but recently I've really enjoyed some scandi blades for carving. Do you have any recommendations for a scandi style folder, the more traditional and puuko-like the better.
Tha Casstrom Lars Falt folder: kcoti.com/3sWBDGJ
Hey David n Seth, any suggestions for a good folder for filleting fish??
Hey DCA, which Fixed Knives Would recommend for bushcraft. Carving, lite Batoning and Foodprep should be Great. Easy to mantain. Kydexsheat Would be nice.
Alot of cold steel up there today. I love it
I prune with a honey badger claw aka hawkbill its awesome
DCA, what's the best sub 3 inch titanium flipper with a drop point that has adequate steel for edc and won't break the bank?
What is your pick if you are trying to find a budget (below 100usd) knife that feels more expensive in the hand.
Yo DCA, looking for a cool fix blade for EDC. Preferably scout carry. Any suggestions?
Dca I’m looking for a double edge blade fixed knife I have seen the kabar ek model 4 but I’m not sure if that’s the way to go can you recommend one?
The Ek daggers are nice and robust. Also check out the Boker Applegate-Fairbairn daggers: kcoti.com/38vXLxX
Hey David what sort of cold steel folder would you recommend for under $50. Please advise thanks in advance man. Btw I love the channel and the knowledge and down to earth conversations. Big fan keep doing your thing man. Much love from Toronto, Canada.
Hey DCA hope you enjoyed your time off! We definitely missed those larger then average hands! But my question is looking for a machete nothing to big or ridiculous, but something that will get the job done and will fit into a day pack for hiking. Currently looking at the cold steel kukri, and the tops 170. 10” 1095.
Check out these survival machetes. Perfect size for packability: th-cam.com/video/MiudT82SR_0/w-d-xo.html
What the Government generally provides tends to be the cheapest option. Ask anyone who's worked with "military grade" products.
It’d be really cool to have a beginners guide on buying your first custom/mid-tech
Is the CRKT Provoke tactical or tacticool? I have one and its not very practical for anything but the snnnkt sound and feel of opening it is very nice.
Absolutely tacticool.
Do you frequently carry it? Do you practice self-defense with it? Do you trust your life to it? If you answered "Yes", it's "tactical". Otherwise, it's hipster-tacticool. There are better knives for defense.
It's good for defense if you have the sheath and have some karambit skills. Definitely not useful for much else but it's neat though lol.
@@plasticoflamingo2952 Actually I have found use for it! Its a monster box opener.
Hey DCA, can you explain the difference (if there is) between spring assisted folders and switch blade/automatic folders? I live in a state where I cant EDC a automatic or switch blade, i just dont know if spring assisted counts or not. Thanks for the feedback and love the vids 👍
Assisted is not classed as automatic.
Here is some goon info on the difference. www.knifecenter.com/best-products/best-switchblades-automatic-knives
As to whether spring assist counts as an automatic, the answer should be no, but sometimes local laws can complicate the truth. Always check your local regs. Wish I could be more helpful! -DCA
I like that push dagger though I’m not a huge fan of sarateeted edges
Hey Dca, loved your previous video on what you like as a tactical knife. That hornet seems awesome! I also liked your response on why the genre exists in the market. What's your opinion on the versatility of the kershaw x emerson knives?
Solid -DCA
Hawkbill especially fully serrated versions just lock into boxes and taped up boxes, the best for it my experience.
I understood about 10%, but it was interesting.)) Thanks
Hey DCA, I am looking for a smaller sized edc that has some attitude. I’m between the hogue microflip 1 and the benchmade presidio 2 mini. I honestly can’t decide any suggestions. I know you love the factory edge on the hogues but I’m also liking the deep carry pocket clip on the benchmade. I have never had a knife from either company. Help!
The Benchmade will give you a little more blade/capability and I do like the clip better. The Hogue has that sub-3 inch blade and machine-like precision. Which of those descriptions strikes your fancy more? Go with that one :) -DCA
@@knifecenter I pulled the trigger on the benchmade, thanks for the advice. Now I just wait for the little orange box!
Hey there can you guys please make a video on wave opening and wave featured knives ?
As a 1st time knife owner what advice can you give me? My daughter bought me a 940-1, what are the do's and don'ts of owning a knife like this?
I am having tons of fun with my CJRB Kicker, but I find it pretty heavy for a knife that size. Are there other knives with the combination of crossbar lock and flipper tab that you would recommend? Your site doesn't make it easy to search based on those parameters.
What is the big deal about tip down carry pocket clips? I honestly don’t have any problems with a pocket clip’s position.
Neither do I. As far as I’m concerned, it’s a personal preference. I’ve carried both, alternating between them day to day- I think as long as you know by feel which one it is when you put your hand on it, it’s not an issue. I can open mine at the same speed, as long as you’re not looking frame by frame and at hundredths of a second, etc. You can’t tell that stuff without technological devices anyway, so it’s more just to give people something to argue about. As long as you’re comfortable and safe with what you’re carrying, it’s totally a personal preference.
Tip down requires some additional manipulation to get it open, so it's a bit slower. It's not a huge deal, but if you have a carry rotation of different knives you're generally going to want to standardize on one or the other, and most choose the faster option.
I really like the green polo better than the maroon. Good on you, DCA!
Since there is tactical and tacti-cool for knives that just look tactical, is there a practi-cool for knives that look less practical than they are?
Probably any 3” or shorter fixed blade in either 1095 or 3V. I use my ESEE Izula as a shovel, and it fits in my front left pocket.
Or even any traditional slip joint. People tend to think they’re too frail to be useful, but I’ve shredded up a 100’ square tent to make it easier to throw away using a Case Barlow.
I think i misworded this. Since tacti-cool looks tactical but isn’t, practi-cool would look practical but instead
I love that someone conceptualized this rhyme-based seed of an idea.
Good morning DCA, I want to know if there is a company that make handle scales for the Benchmade Adamas? I recently purchased one and the para-crap simply does not cut it as handle material. Thank you. J.P.
Not that I know of but that would be cool to see. -DCA
The CRKT Otanashi Noh Ken, if flicked open by someone clearly willing to use it, looks pretty intimidating. But since my knife use is not as a weapon and is sometimes pretty rough, I’ll keep using my good old Al Mar SERE2000.
Nothing beats a Felco bypass pruner… my wife has them all over the yard so they are never far away.
Hey David, I am New to Knife Center, and LOVING IT! Ive always thought SMKW was the only place to go and now I found you guys!! Ok My Question in the $200-$300 Range what are your Favorite and best Value picks for a Folder and for a Fixed Blade Knife? Thank you - Will C
If anyone know how I can get a replacement for the SOG terminus xr springs please let me know one side broke and I don't want to send it to SOG because I have opened the knife to clean it and understand how it works(not the reason it broke but warranty won't cover it also used my lubricant of choice so pretty obvious it was opened) knife still looks brand new so I would hate to get rid of it if I can fix it.

Love this series
Hi DCA. Hope you had a good vacation. Seth did a great job.
Yes he did, and thanks! -DCA
Could you recommend a fixed blade that would work well for camping/hunting and would also work well in the kitchen? Thanks
Nordsmith Canteen Knife: kcoti.com/3kORkMh
@@knifecenter that looks nice. Thanks!
If you get mugged, you’re probably going to prefer having the benchmade adamas rather than trying to defend yourself with a case trapper. Some people seem to just not understand that you need lethal tools in order to protect yourself. You never know when that tactical knife could save your life (no rhyme intended)
I always have a fixed blade on me whether it's tiny or large for self defense or more likely snakes lol
Hi DCA,
Long time watcher, first time caller. I will soon be working with a custom knife maker to have a fixed blade of my design made. Just curious what types of questions do you think I should be asking throughout the process? Thanks in advance!
The Benchmade Fact (blacked out version) is the best EDC self defense folding knife that I’ve found.
I might have went for the Voyager Vaquero XL over the Kris, but you can't beat a Cold Steel for intimidation factor
I live in an urban city and am going to work in an office environment, do you have any recommendations for a lightweight knife that is on the smaller end and also good for slicing? Thanks!
Great eastern cutlery or similar "old fashioned" slip joint knives won't scare the Karen's
Alternatively a higonakami is cool and a little less boring since the real ones are hand made from japan
@Paul Smith oh yeah LOL you're right
Hey DCA, Buck is known for getting more performance out of their 420HC bladed knives than other manufacturers because of their heat treatment. Are there other knife maker/steel combos you can recommend as getting a little more performance out of a given material?
1095, gets a small boost from cryogenic heat treatment Nitro V gets a big boost from it other than that idk
What knife has caged washers or bearings? I build bridges and I work around a lot of dirt and sand. My pivot constantly gets gunked up.
Maybe a smaller fixed blade would be more suitable for you I think. Mora, BokerPlus, White river, Ruike, Benchmade, SOG, etc.
Oh… Just realized that CRKT has some folders offering easy disassemble-assemble (by hand) method. One was the Homefront. I think in some cases easy disassembling and cleaning is more beneficial.
my brain IMMEDIATELY went to the Espada XL. I own one and every time I deploy that monster that SNAP just sounds beastly. also saw a comment about the Spyderco Civilian...with a zip-tie mod on the Spidey hole for quick deploy that thing will DEFINITELY make someone re-think their life decisions. 🤣
also...Spyderco Resilience. a VERY decent budget workhorse I never see mentioned...on the larger side for EDC but it works, a great bladeshape, and big enough to provide a little "whoa" factor.
Hey David, I love the KniFAQ videos. I have a question about the music, especially at the end, I love the bass line being a bass player myself. Just wondering if you are a musician, I somehow picture you as a musician? Was that music done in-house? Just curious to know how many of the team and the Knife Centre are musicians? Anyway, keep up the good shows!
Hey DCA any extreme budget below 20$ that are workhorses for big hands.
Channel your inner barbarian..that "axe" was awesome...lol
Halkbill with Seratetons . Great for rope
The FEAR GIGGLES!!!! I love it!!!!😂 good job guy’s don’t change a thing your doing
Would like to see an updated video of overbuilt knives under a hundred bucks
Wish you guys had a place in Virginia Beach. I'd love to work there.
Legit question; my 5 year old Godson wants a knife, as an avid knife user myself I am 100% for it, i even went over the do's and don't of knife ownership. What would you recommend for small hands to use while out camping/fishing? He's carried a Swiss army knife but he found it too bulky (tiny pants pockets lol). Ty!
How about trying a neck knife like a crkt minimalist. Or Le Duck.
I have a question; why is there such negative sentiment directed at assisted knives (when basically) while their mechanism vary, the resulting deployment of automatic knives is similar.
