THANK YOU for batoning sir! Nothing like a high end folder doing Bushcraft work. I aspire to your level. Maybe I'll baton with my pena trapper. Not as expensive, but much more egregious.
"There are shit customs out there, that people pay a lot for" This can never be repeated enough. I gnawed on a couple slabs of Ti and added a useless cleaver "blade"... Give me $1k, please!
Sir in the pantheon of knife reviewers you sir are a god! First team all bro!!! The trendsetter if you will. The knife world is better when you are in it! I sir only a humble disciple of yours...... And of course Lynn. May he ever bless your channel and keep you safe!
I will admit, seeing customs with beautiful b-roll in an assortment of situations is great for someone like me! The hyper expensive knives (that are really art pieces pretending to have purpose) are something I absolutely admire! If I didn't have another equally expensive hobby (home recording) then I would probably sink hundreds-if-not-thousands into a handful of amazing knives! But, as my interests lie in other trivial things the average person doesn't need and would see as "too expensive," I sit on the sidelines and appreciate the channels of those who appreciate! I still have a few EDC's and I'm always looking for that "perfect fit" in my life. And when someone makes a video on a knife I would actually consider, I might even watch it more than once! But I still love seeing people with passion talk about their passion. And you're probably my favorite "personality" in this space. You offer insight, where most people just offer dimensions.
Brian pretty much does knock it outta the park!!! I just got my first @SharpByDesign 2020 EVO TYPHOON a few weeks ago and *spoiler alert* its sooo good! Granted its NOT one of his customs, its one of his Production knives by Reate... But its still So, Soooo damn good!!! I REALLY NEED a VOID! NOT the XL but regular size VOID!!!
Nice video as always. A modern day Socrates. Thanks to you I just deleted Instagram and closed all my open knife tabs on the phone. Looking in the mirror really hurts sometimes. Rock on my man!
Someone on reddit tonight found me worthy of buying his blacked out Mini Tempest for preorder price. Pretty kind considering I'm very sure there are many people who paid in full 10 months ago & still haven't gotten theirs delivered just yet. I didn't feel quite worthy since I already have an Evo Typhoon. But after seeing those Archnemesises...Archnemesi... Sworn Enemies, I'm feeling like I love myself a little more. I can admit to myself that I would like to fondle one. I'm good enough after all. And I can dream. And in the meantime I'll be able to enjoy the two SBDs I'm lucky enough to own. Great video my man, I hadn't seen these customs up close. Also, you speak some harsh truths in this video. Had to be done.
That ending caught me by surprise haha. I wonder why custom makers don't use stronger locks more often, particularly ones that are open to use. I'd love to see more knives with Snecx's superlock.
Haha! This was hilarious my friend! All of these Knife Guy Jokes hit so close to Home it hurts! Great Video Brother and Love everything Bryan makes or designs!
The way your Tempest closes is just like how every knife from Andre Thorburn and Andre Van Heerden I've ever had. Had to sell most of them to pay for dads funeral and a surgery I had(like you said, they're great for emergency funds) but the 2 I kept are special. Never got into SBD knives thought he does great work.
This is one of the more advanced of your Knife Bro videos... quite impressive! That being said, Uncle Randy won’t be pleased with all the poetic flair and hole flicki-ness :)
Ey, so honestly... I'm really not one to do the "patreon" thing or purchase swagg. I am more inclined to support a channel I old in high regard by purchasing items related to the channel content. I'm going to go over to Instagram and slide into your DM's. If I've got no luck there, then I'll be forced to purchase one or so of your "crappy shirts" (your words, not mine) 🤷🏻♂️. I truly love and appreciate the thought and effort you put into creating all of the content contained within your channel. Much thanks my ADVANCED KNIFE BRO MOFO!
I really appreciated the ending. That's why I buy TC Barlows at 3X markup, Shiros, and Sharp By Design. So I can beat the shit out of them in the woods while my Hults Bruk rusts in the barn.
Glad you're back AKB! Was starting to get a little bit worried about you, what with all the California Covid madness going on. The Arch Nemesis WILL be yours one day, and it will baton like a champ.
Hey Boowie. I've missed your crusty bandaids and you're voice as silky smooth as the action of a buck 110 lubricated with tears of Lynn Thompson. Keep it up!-continue to make good videos too! Kisses!
I appreciate your baton at the end. I also like the look of the handle on the Evo Typhoon. I'm glad I fell off the buying/collecting wagon once I found a few decent normie knives for my daily use and before my tastes got too expensive.
To be honest, I am always happy to watch your vids AKB, don't stop as long as your private life doesn't suffer or it makes you unhappy. The knives are are kinda fugly to me, fit and finish might be nice, but except for the chicane I wouldn't want to have them in my collection. And since I started to customise my knives myself, no titanium, micarta or non stainless is safe!
You know the sickness hasn’t progressed to the final stage because as of 2024 I have yet to see a custom made Balisong on this channel. The spicy fidget spinners start around Void XL prices..
Hell to the yes. Big nod and tip of the hat to the skirted knurling. Really liked that design choice on the previous run. I opted for the Micarta inlays just because I thought it looked right to my eye. Although, I don’t think there is a bad looking one. I would like to formally declare to socially distance myself from the hardcore Micarta fan club (you know who you are). I 💜 my Evo(s)! Sad I missed the boat on the XLs too. cc Must follow through with the dumbshit ideas per usual.
Was about to complain that there was no batoning in the video. Thanks, bro. I'm only subscribed for the batoning and not the professional video editing and clever script writing.
I love your videos, I think you're one of the most under-appreciated channels. I'm with you on not spending more than $300 for a production knife. Myself I wouldn't do more than $200. I look forward to future videos.
Lol I love the knife hobby!!!!!!! Never a nickel in the pocket fighting with the ol lady and watching the lights flicker lol hahahah oh the knife life gotta love it!!!!!!! What’s next what’s next come on!!!!!!!!!😀
While you're getting wonderful works from Jersey, may I suggest SDKives/ Nova blades. Then right next door, in NY Sergey Rogovets- Extreme Addiction. Check em out Bro 🤙.
I carry my knife in the front right pocket with my wallet. That’s right Im a front pocket wallet bro. Fucking deal with it. Wait what was my point?! Uh... oh yeah! Pocket peckers don’t bug me none, no how.
it may not matter to you but a big ti knife thats just as light or lighter than on of these, you never heard of twosun? they make some great ti knives that wont break the bank
@@AdvancedKnifeBro then there is another company that make a titanium knife that is just as big and just as light. you stated in your video no other company makes one
Personally my knife hobby hit the later stages with high end cold steels. Esparda xl, large, immoral. That’s about all I’m willing to spend on knifes I believe there about the most durable for the price point with higher end steels. I c an still use them and not feel bad. I would like to see some reviews of regular type production blades mixed in possibly? I enjoy seeing high end Coustom knifes but will not really relate or ever buy one. More people will relate to common production blades under $200 I believe. Take care!
LIES! There's nothing purple can't do on its own. I thought you weren't going to baton anything, but you pulled it out at the last minute. Careful, that's how you end up with another kid.
Don’t fade away mate, I enjoy your videos. I’ll keep watching your vids. Sounds like your winding up your channel? I hope not.😊
Naw. But buying customs is a late stage collecting signal. I have a lot of videos still coming.
@@AdvancedKnifeBro, good to hear mate.👍🏼
@nick sweeney, haha, I’m ashamed....😉
THANK YOU for batoning sir! Nothing like a high end folder doing Bushcraft work. I aspire to your level. Maybe I'll baton with my pena trapper. Not as expensive, but much more egregious.
I’m here for Ganzo and Steel Reserve...every video you drift further from god.
Yep this is more like Advanced Bougie Knife bro.
"There are shit customs out there, that people pay a lot for"
This can never be repeated enough.
I gnawed on a couple slabs of Ti and added a useless cleaver "blade"... Give me $1k, please!
Sir in the pantheon of knife reviewers you sir are a god! First team all bro!!! The trendsetter if you will. The knife world is better when you are in it! I sir only a humble disciple of yours...... And of course Lynn. May he ever bless your channel and keep you safe!
P.S
The knives are straight bad assery!!
Thank god you are back, I was worried COVID got you! Love the videos!
Nope. I’m eve vaccinated!

*Talks about preserving resale value*
*Ends video with gratuitous batoning*
Never change, AKBro. Stay golden.
You had me at "...a turret for the lizard people on top of that garage." The batoning at the end was extra gravy. Thank you AKB.
Brian pretty much does knock it outta the park!!!

Yeah, cool knife, but how many lumens is it?
Nice video as always. A modern day Socrates. Thanks to you I just deleted Instagram and closed all my open knife tabs on the phone. Looking in the mirror really hurts sometimes. Rock on my man!
Thank you for doing your part in making these knives even less affordable ;)
Another home run -- keep them coming! I died at "Crimin'" lol
Brian’s knives are fantastic and his responsiveness and customer service exceeds that already high standard. Big fan.

Also, you speak some harsh truths in this video. Had to be done.
Love that you beat on it at the end. Respect
Thought I was the only 1 who thought that their knife should look as good as they do. Thanks Bro
This man keeps me sane.
Great video. Brian Nà duō is one of my favorite knife makers at the moment
Getting a mention in one of your videos feels like winning
Love the WIP videos!
Advanced Knife Bro so does your mom
Much love from Switzerland
That ending caught me by surprise haha. I wonder why custom makers don't use stronger locks more often, particularly ones that are open to use. I'd love to see more knives with Snecx's superlock.
Brian’s work is amazing... I’m such a fan as well... blessed to own a dagger 🗡... still a favorite maker!
Haha! This was hilarious my friend! All of these Knife Guy Jokes hit so close to Home it hurts! Great Video Brother and Love everything Bryan makes or designs!
Nice to see you back was wondering were you had gone keep up the good work like your flashlight reviews especially the zebralight reviews
The way your Tempest closes is just like how every knife from Andre Thorburn and Andre Van Heerden I've ever had. Had to sell most of them to pay for dads funeral and a surgery I had(like you said, they're great for emergency funds) but the 2 I kept are special. Never got into SBD knives thought he does great work.
He took some time off, but came back with the REAL goods... old photos from childhood! lol
You've come a long way Bro. 👍😉
God looking at knife reviews now is like walking by a crack den I used to frequent on my daily walk to the horological opium den
Very different knife channel, very different format. I was entertained! 👏I am a fan! Please keep up the great work!!!🔪🖤🗡
You did it, you crazy bastard. You did it! Not disappointed at all!
This is one of the more advanced of your Knife Bro videos... quite impressive! That being said, Uncle Randy won’t be pleased with all the poetic flair and hole flicki-ness :)
I kinda like the superb monotone value to your voice. THANKS FOR SHARING AND YOUR TIME.
You're amazeballz!

Awesome vid as always man! Such gorgeous blades. Such hands with perfect movement and synchrony with the narrator 🤣👍✌️
Glad you're back AKB! Was starting to get a little bit worried about you, what with all the California Covid madness going on. The Arch Nemesis WILL be yours one day, and it will baton like a champ.
I like this. I didn’t want to mess with the number of the beast. ❤
Thank you for the great content! Love the video. Awesome!
Well, I don't know how you got a hold of the poetry I wrote in Highschool, but I hope it goes better for you than me.
It’s okay, Brian is disappointed in all of us.

found channel after looking for a review on an Astrolux BLF A6 XPL torch (flashlight) and im in love, new subscriber!
I said this earlier to someone SARCASM puts the spice in life!!!!
No more mr knife guy 🔪
I was ready to be salty but damn me if he didn't prove how advanced he is by pulling out a baton. Good show old chap.
I appreciate your baton at the end. I also like the look of the handle on the Evo Typhoon. I'm glad I fell off the buying/collecting wagon once I found a few decent normie knives for my daily use and before my tastes got too expensive.
I watched the whole video but it peaked (and deeply hurt me) at "A shameful thing you hoard, or toolery you show off to your quote: internet buddies".
Your knife martial arts gets better each time.
I came here for the knives, but I stayed for the batonning.....👍🤘
To be honest, I am always happy to watch your vids AKB, don't stop as long as your private life doesn't suffer or it makes you unhappy.

Stayed til the end, glad I did Knife Bro!

(Good thing I'm too broke anyway! lol)

Great review. Don’t be a stranger!
No blue lines? This channel has lost its way.
heretical video , no blue lines !!!!!!
Great review
What did Ben Franklin say about secrets? Three can make a custom if two are dead? Something like that anyway.
Seems accurate
You know the sickness hasn’t progressed to the final stage because as of 2024 I have yet to see a custom made Balisong on this channel. The spicy fidget spinners start around Void XL prices..

Best review's. Try the Maxace Goliath. Certain people will say it's comically large but it's perfect for my hands. Not everyone has shabaz hands.
Wow bro-man! Do they fit with the beverage of all bros? The Zima?!!
Was about to complain that there was no batoning in the video. Thanks, bro. I'm only subscribed for the batoning and not the professional video editing and clever script writing.

I might be "no damned good" but I see Brend, I want video.
came for the baron test. left because it was placed at the end of the video and i hung in there despite not giving a shit about this knife company
Man you should review the kabar space bar!! The official knife of space force!!
I could just hear Bryan losing his shit everytime you said "wiggles"
Keanison Custom Knives is 3 people making 1 custom knife lol, love the video review btw but I had to throw that comment in 👊👍

Ok you batoned it I’m happier now not such a shitty review and I like it better
Suggested review: Roman by We Knife Co.
Did you get a mini tempest? I got mine! Did the gold shred carbon fiber in drop point
Silver handle, drop point, blue swirly shit. Can’t wait!
@@AdvancedKnifeBro hell yeah dude!
Fancy
I wouldn't worry about hurting that titanium handle. It's bulletproof, nothing to lose. Fire away...
I carry my knife in the front right pocket with my wallet. That’s right Im a front pocket wallet bro. Fucking deal with it. Wait what was my point?! Uh... oh yeah! Pocket peckers don’t bug me none, no how.
it may not matter to you but a big ti knife thats just as light or lighter than on of these, you never heard of twosun? they make some great ti knives that wont break the bank

Take care!
The good news is that nearly all of my reviews are for the price range you are describing. This is only one of a handful of customs I’ve reviewed
Love your vids, jokes, and sarcastic remarks on the buck 110!

Does the tempest texture feel a little griptillian-ish?
Ish yes. But a little smoother. Like candied?
