KnifeCenter FAQ

[@lerch400block]

Hum, the Spyderco Police 4 would have been a great recommendation. Who would have thought 😅

[@craigb7217]

The ZT 0350 is a great knife for duty, and ZT has a solid warranty and great customer service. I have been carrying and using the 350 for the past 5 years or so, and my two cents are: 1) if the gentleman has been carrying it for a while, he probably doesn’t want to “replace it permanently, but may rather just have something else to rotate in, especially while he sends his 350 away for servicing at he factory. 2) The only knives that I would “replace” my 0350 with on that table is the Full size or mini Adamas, and possibly the PM2, but it’s not as durable as the 0350.

[@RoyalWulffDry]

@@twatmunro Agreed. IMO, the Recon 1 is a close second.

[@tarik1816]

My most carried knife in my work as law enforcement officer was my Spyderco endura black blade with partial serrated. Never ever failed me.

[@SHTFdan]

The American Lawman is absolutely a one handed closing knife. It almost has some finesse about it but plenty robust for hard use. I can’t seem to get it out of my pocket. Not that the America Lawman is difficult to carry AT ALL, but the only reason I ever swap it out is if I ever want something slightly easier to carry (I.e a bugout or baby banter). But it’s almost redundant to do so.

[@tn_original331]

I carried a partially serrated Kershaw Blur for my first three years and beat it up on the street. Great pick. I ended up buying my first Benchmade (840) which also held up phenomenally for years. I picked up the Mini Adamas when it came out and it is my favorite of all 3. Great LE knife, I recommend it to everyone.

[@byronkennedy7912]

I would neither want nor carry an assisted-opening knife as a law enforcement officer for a duty knife ... want nothing to "fail" when one needs the knife. The most-obvious choice was missing from the list ... the Cold Steel Recon 1 folder (tanto, spear, clip in that order) knife at $130ish, a 4" blade length, S35VN or Magnacut stainless/coated blade, and one of the strongest/reliable locks in the industry. Thanks DCA.

[@kellywilson137]

Recon 1 is the strongest Folder for the money.
Im a cook and I use the recon 1 S35vn to cut the steel Oil drums in half to stuff into the trash.
I hope they bring back the XL Recon 1, ild buy 2 of them right off the bat.

I agree with this 100%! I carried a zt0200, and then bought an ultratech. The ultratech was a great knife for duty carry. Mine vanished a few years ago. I thought I’d “upgrade” to the Dirac delta, and wish I had another ultratech instead. I actually am back carrying the 0200 over the Dirac.

When sharpening my knives, I use mostly diamond sharpening tools. Since I have a lot of PM steels (MagnaCut, Maxamet, S30V, S35VN, etc.) regular sharpening stones ware out too fast. With the diamond sharpening tools, the DLC doesn’t have effect on the sharpening process. There will be a bit of black left on the diamond surface, but that is easily wiped off.

[@happykt]

I love my Cold Steel American Lawman and it one of my favorite knives in my 450+ knife collection. If I was in the military again, I'd carry my Cold Steel American Lawman or Recon1 with the Triad locking system. I would not carry an assisted knife. I'd like something very tough and durable and I'd be totally sure that the lock wouldn't fail and I could beat the heck out of it in all conditions.

[@mangobadger]

Recently got an old school Lawman to see what the fuss was about. I can heartily recommend it! Tough as nails but still comfy in hand. Also, maybe it’s too obvious but the Presidio II is always a good choice. Large, versatile, lightweight yet tough and best axis lock they’ve ever made.

[@renegade410]

As LEO for almost 20 years, I have carried a few different folders on duty. The first was a MOD CQD MARK I Auto. When Benchmade came out with the Triage, I switched to that. Then the Auto Triage, which I still carry daily for duty. I carry the original Triage off duty as an EDC knife. I like the ability these knives afford someone in my line of work. The glass breakers on the knives have come in handy to access vehicles. The cutting hooks are indispensable for cutting seatbelts or for removing clothing from injured individuals. I also prefer the partially serrated blades for cutting difficult materials like vehicle airbags that have deployed.
Great video DCA. Stay safe out there.

[@jordangrose698]

As an officer and someone who is really into knifes I carry multiple folders and a fixed blade on duty. I think it is very important to be able to get to your knife from whatever position you are in. So I carry either a Benchmade Freak or a PM 2 in my front right pocket. In my left I carry a Kershaw launch I think it’s the 11. On my duty vest I carry a KA BAR BK 16. That way no matter the position I’m in I can get to at least one of my knives. I use at least one of my knives everyday while on duty and to me being able to get to them when you need them is critical. Keep up the great work at knife center

[@jordangrose698]

Correction the Kershaw Launch that I carry is a Launch 6.

[@justinjung1631]

On duty I go between:
Microtech Socom Elite
Microtech Amphibian
Benchmade 710
Spyderco Manix 2 XL
Something I consider is the ability to use a knife with gloves, latex, Mechanix, etc.

[@douglasfromalberta2456]

When I was “one” I too carried and well loved the ZT 350 tiger stripe. A couple buddies that are still in and on the HRT carry bugouts and bailouts. Right before I retired I was carrying the benchmade AFO 2 auto. Now that I’m out, but still cutting similar materials on a regular basis I now carry and love the Benchmade Freek in CPM M4 and G-10 with IMO the much needed Lynch NW titanium fold over clip.

[@ohboysabu]

When reviewing a knife, it is common to comment on the strength of the lock, but in a practical sense, what does that mean? How strong should we expect a lock to be? Love the channel and thanks to DAC, Thomas, and Seth.

[@pmwheatley]

For law enforcement and military I would go with a fixed blade. No moving parts to keep it simple, especially in a stressful situation.

[@craigdemagall1165]

[@craigprice8425]

Law Enforcement Knife: 1/2 or full serrated, recurve blade, 3.75" blade, flipper or OTF, lots of traction

[@nicholaswolf8492]

I think you hit the nail on the head. I carried a ZT 301 for years and recently switched to a full sized Adamas. The best knife related thing I’ve done for work is to get a leatherman mut on my duty belt. I use it all the time. I see Lots of tool type use and in appropriate knife use on the street.
A lot of cops are not knife people but almost all carry a knife. Lots of cheapo stuff, lots of benchmades because that’s what is stocked at the uniform shops. Few kershaws, pm2s, manix, and a couple micro techs is what I see.

When my brother was a cop he carried a Microtech Ultratech T/E serrated LEO and a 5.11 fixed blade. The Ultratech was an Elmax version and he used TF out of it. The 5.11 fixed blade still looks fairly unused whereas the Microtech looks like it’s been beat to hell. I swear by Microtech because of the beating he put on that poor knife and it always worked.

[@user-uk3rp2cb5v]

Spyderco and Benchmade are the LEO knife snob choices 90% of the time in my experience.Both are great choices, but a little steep for most cops, especially young guys. RAT 1 is a good choice for the guys who prefer to spend their meager public servant paychecks more discriminately. Seen quite a few of them on the job.

[@JackandtheSpiderQueen]

Lots of LEO feedback, very cool. In my 14 years on, I had a fixed on my belt and a folder in my pocket. The the last three are m21 crkt, benchmade assisted barrage, and the most carried is my Buck 898.

[@kjreames]

Microtech MSI would be another good option for a big "Law Enforcement" knife. Fits the budget too!

[@dauayub1395]

I was FLEO and started with a couple of Blurs but quickly moved up to the ZT 0200. Today I would definitely choose the Microtech MSI, any handle material works. I like the one hand operation you don't get from the Blur or ZTs. I would also consider the Lionsteel LE One as it would be a useful blade for cutting zip cuffs, paracord, thick fabrics, etc.

Hey DCA and Thomas, in an apocalypse would it be better to have a beater knife that is a softer steel that can be sharpened on many surfaces in the apocalypse or having a harder blade steel that would last you a lot longer but once it goes dull is harder to sharpen? Your thoughts as always are valued and sought after

[@hatchetjack1031]

Craig, speaking of assisted LEO knives, one name comes quickly to mind for large, beastly folders: COLD STEEL. Almost no one touches their huge knives for size and intimidation: 4-Max, SR-1, Spartan, Espada. However, they've got a new assisted Opening folder that might be of tremendous interest: The Swift III. It has a huge 4 inch assisted opening blade that is made from CPM-M4 steel, a very seriously tough, strong steel. According to their website, Knifecenter is currently sold out of them, but I'm sure they'll be back in stock soon. If you can't wait, there are a few other dealers like DLT who do have them on the shelves.

[@JerryLoffelbein]

Only precaution I can think of when sharpening DLC (or other coated blades) is that it REALLY stands out if you hit the plunge grind and make a smile. It only matters if you care about the pristine aesthetics of a coated blade though. Just be careful around the heel of the blade when sharpening if you care about that.
Of course you can always be ghetto with it and color that back in with Sharpie if you did make a smile. It's less obvious than with other coatings as DLC usually keeps a shiny appearance rather than matte 😂

[@ĶČXXĻ-ĀxÐ]

I've bought dozens of knives since and got little use from them coz I keep returning to the Triage. The strap cutter gets soooooo much use with zip ties, opening kids toys at Xmas and bdays, once u have it u miss it if its gone.

[@Deibodese]

Here’s a question: What is the point of a finger choil? I understand that it’s used as a control point to get a better grip on the blade, but isn’t that what the handle is for? I can kinda see the value on a folder where the blade and handle have to be roughly the same dimensions, so a designer can cheat by making part of the blade function as extra handle, but on a fixed blade it just seems redundant. (Not trying to be contentious here, I genuinely want to know.)

Hey Knifecenter I have a question/challenge for you: recommend 5-6 (relatively affordable) knives that give a good sample of different features to help someone figure out what they like.
As a noob, it took me several knives to figure out my preferences (lock type, handle material, blade shape/size, steel, etc.). Unfortunately there aren't many places to handle knives in person, and buying several to try out gets expensive.
For reference, I started with the liner lock Ontario Rat 1, then a lock back Ka-Bar Dozier hunter in D2, button lock Kizer Assassin in 154cm w/ micarta scales, aluminum Boker Kwaiken OTF, crossbar SOG-TAC XR, and the Spyderco Para 3 LW in Spy27.

I own a Civivi Conspirator (Damascus), a Boker 2023 Annual Damast Slipjoint (Damasteel) and a Spyderco Delica (KC Exclusive VG10 Core Damascus). These are very different knives, with very different blade steels. However, they share one trait. The texture of the Damascus is very tactile…the layers can easily be felt. Why is that? On other layered products, like the Mokuti clip on my QSP Penguin, the texture is much smoother. Thanks!
