Great review again man, always appreciate your outlook. Balanced perspective. I've only held one but really want to spend some time with one. Finally got my Malibu though!
The operator is definitely my pick of 'strider' knives but this was certainly something that I could entertain picking up for myself as it's a great carry in anybody's books. It would appear that I have a predilection for Strider large enough to start adding a few to the collection 👍🙂 thanks for your input Jake 😀👌
We typically just call those the 3/4 grind. The disc is an LBS (lock bar stabilizer) disc works tho🤷🏼♂️ CC SnG’s are great knives. However I often ask people to try different models before they write them off. I took a whole year to try all the production folders, and fixed blades (not all the WP’s that’d take a while) before I decided to settle with the SMF. We’re all new to the FWP! Alchemy_1 does a good job explaining how knife company’s deliver what you should expect from their calling card. Strider’s happens to be “hardcore tools, for Hardcore individuals”.. or better known “forged for war” Some are slicey others just tools. Great vid man!
What’s funny is that the percentage of guys breaching doors and doing the kinds of military jobs that Striders make one think of is probably close to zero.
@@beardedgear good point. I commented before I finished watching your review. I looked up some of the other models and you’re right. This one seems to be pretty unique in the lineup.
I know alot of people love them But with that said the only version that l own and will probably ever own is The Operator It's definitely not my best Slicer But l still love it! 👍👊
I go bananas for strider KNIVES (CLASS WITH A SICKNESS BAD ASS ) BUT HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT THE PHYSICAL KNIFE IM A CONSERVATIVE WITH THINGS (RIGHT KNOW) BETTER DAYS AHEAD.......THANKS FOR SHARING....IT'S APPRECIATED.
I couldn’t tell you why but I simply love the tone and aura of this TH-cam channel like at this point I just come to the channel to chill
This is completely off subject but I'm remodeling my house and I like how you guys did the wall behind you.

Thanks dude! Appreciate all of the clarification!
I think it's called a "Monoblock" construction.
The Strider ergosbare still my all time favorite. I am a fan. It is an acquired taste i think. Lol
Very cool. Hope to own a strider one day. Great review 👍
Have you tried the hinderer full track?
Not yet!
I just bought an sng from a guy on Facebook. I’m planning to send it to Tom Krein to work his magic and make it a slicing beast.

I didn’t realize how thin it was. That’s pretty interesting. I always viewed those within the old school ZT vein. Overbuilt.
I think most versions of this knife are much thicker than this one

Did the knife come with its paper work? There is a shit ton of fakes of these out there. Great review thank you🍻👍🍻
wait wait wait, what? Wearin’ gloves and preachin’ indoors! Thats frigin great.
Whaaaaaat? You didn’t clip that sucker to your pocket and immediately jump out of a helicopter? I can’t believe it🤣
Considering Mick lied about his experience as an “operator,” it’s probably more appropriate this way
Dude it’s a folder Strider, need not say more . Just bought one . Either your into them or not . You said it if you have the funds buy it …
Where/how did you get it?? I’ve been searching forever and it seems like they are always out of stock within an hour that they hit a site.
Once a strider...
I'll take it. Shoot an email to steph04 at gmail
Let's be honest strider is trash. Wish I would've thought one though would have made some money.
