Ok hear me out lol... You guys should do a "Best Fidget Knives" video. Kinda silly sounding I know, but a selection of the most buttery, snappy, and satisfying knives around would be pretty sweet to behold...

CRKT CEO is my "dressy" knife. Love it so much I bought a spare. The thumb stud took a week or two of use to get used to, and I would prefer a flipper setup, but the ergonomics and blade are just classy as hell and it doesn't scare people. That said, you arent supposed to put a pen in the outside of a jacket pocket. Inside only
i've been EDC'n the CRKT CEO for the last few months in the office & it's been fantastic. Very unassuming & stealthy for the office environment, which i feel is needed, but sharp as heck & looks great in the pocket.
@@NewfieOutdoorsman I hate to say this but you're totally right. And I actually love these guys on Blade HQ but I'm afraid I don't think they really know what rough and tough is except for the guy without the beard. He actually works outside in on cars and s***

A knife is a tool, buy what you like, just do some research on the maker, company, steel and materials being used 👊)
Well people not in the know would probably think it's an off brand or some weird pen brand in college I kept a SOG Tanto Trident elite in my pocket because of how casual the clip looked in my jeans...then I bought a Microtech Ultratech Bounty Hunter and that totally killed discreet carry lol
Welcome to the classiest Knife Banter about the classiest knives. It's just so classy! Take a drink of water every time we say 'classy.' Me and Kurt just wanted you guys to stay hydrated today 🤣🤣.
I got stopped by security entering the Aero-Space Museum in Washington D.C. a month ago with a 2007 vintage S30V Kershaw Onion, with G-10 scales. I told them it was the smallest knife I owned, the guards laughed, and let me in calling it a "Museum Knife". Definitely a gentleman's knife.
And the guy that designed the CEO has the best last name in the world. And its stamped right there on the blade. (Eh, that's why I got one anyway lol) Finally!! The nail clip made it in a knife banter! I've been advocating for it forever! Edit: that carbon fiber leek is also a composite blade...
For me the Pro Tech Newport has it all for A gentleman’s carry. Just the right size and design to wear with a suit. The auto feature lends a bit of wow factor when presented for a task such as cutting a piece of thread from your ladies dress she is fretting about. Sharp point for any delicate cutting. I only carry it when I’m wearing a suit so it always looks new. So consider it on your next episode of Gentlemen's Knives.
During Christmas, it's common for people in my industry to send each other Harry and David pears. The last Christmas I was in the office cutting up pears with my Kershaw Leek. I can confirm it is a gentleman act
I found you guys 2 weeks ago. Have watched 80 episodes since. I HAVE LEARNED SO MUCH AND NOW HAVE THE BUG. Wife is in to it also. Bought a benchmade bugout and a Kizer Yorki for myself. A knife Christmas. :) Also bought 3 swiss army knives as gifts.
He was taking a leek when the marketing team was trying to come up with a name and he also made the CEO cry due to the amazing design... in all honesty though, I love the Leek and I wish that made it in a different variety of steels... I don’t care about the different colors that they offer besides the different shades of grey
My preferred is the slip joint, leather sheath Fantoni Dweller in Cocobolo scale. The Massdrop Gent with custom snakewood scales is my modern day suit knife and considering the Civivi McKenna in Damacus as a good equilvalent Gent folder. Gentleman carry for me is smaller blade, light to medium duty tasks such as food prep for sausage, cheese, apple or fruit slicing. Ideally compliments rest of attire and accessories... Watch, pen, lighter (torch), flashlight, etc. Thus a new video concept.. Knifes that pair well for a certain style. For me three basic styles based upon shoes and watch... Dress (gentleman), sports (high water resistance), and edc based upon ones occupation.
My favorite classy knife in my collection is the J.Oeser/Benchmade tanto , leather pocket sheath, white-black G10 scales I think and that beautiful tanto blade in 20cv
Hey, you’d probably have a faster response either calling them (if a number is available) or sending an email ASAP. I didn’t look at what you’re talking about but o figured I may be able to help with some suggestions regarding contacting them. Still, I’ve had them respond before (not a complaint but compliment) so you would have good chances getting a response within a few days at least. I believe an email or call would be faster but I’ve never contacted outside of TH-cam since I’ve never been in your situation. Good luck though! They are a great company in my opinion so I have an excellent opinion regarding their business practices and customer service.
e.wells It was 2 sentences....You really took 3 minutes to type out a response but didn’t take the time to read his comment and see it was OBVIOUSLY sarcasm?
Did I chirp this guy at all?? No. I offered advice if he did indeed want to contact them. What is the issue with that? Pieces of shit like you guys are why comment sections are absolutely horrible. I was being kind and I get rebuked for it? Regardless of the tone of the OP’s comment, it doesn’t make me culpable to BS when being helpful and kind. Oh, what’s the harm with presenting a well thought out comment by taking the time to communicate intelligently? Before it’s brought up, yes I did have a typo but I’m on a iPads and honestly didn’t feel like correcting the mistake after a quick proofread before posting the comment. So, you guys can go back to your obviously miserable lives because you all apparently needed to demean someone to make yourselves feel better. Also, I’m done responding since it’s not worth my time at all. Edit : Well, maybe I will respond to any further negative comments that are purposely attempting to provoke me...
I attire myself in a suit every day. My knives in my usual rotation are either a Benchmade Contego or a Kershaw Link in blackwash finish with the grey scales. Perhaps one day I shall adopt a small fixed blade for every day carry, as well.
I know it’s an older video but just got the CEO (thumbstud) today. Love it so far. I may get the flipper in the future but again, so far this is perfect for me at this price point
Kurt, If you really want to sell the "Benchmade Bugout Gold Class" call it a honeycomb pattern, way classier than chicken wire but still the same roots.LOL
I was a bit surprised how unregular it looks, compared to the Böker Scout Honeycomb. I mean it's quite pricy... But yeah, it is a beauty, even though the chicken wire looks not so well executed.
LOVE this video! Thanks. I like to carry the Lil Native CF, Lil Lum, Firefly, Vrango or Pingo Ti from Spyderco. I also carry the Olamic Wayfarer, MBK MOG Mini, MBK Slayback and Apache X-series. I rarely carry anything bigger since I work in an office and I have a Large Sebenza in my desk drawer. Many of my favourites are from the great folks at Blade HQ. 👍
I would agree but having handled it I like it a lot more then many other knives in that size range. It feels light and really does disappear in the pocket. Just my two cents. -Zac
Nice job, gents! Always enjoy a good Kurt & Zac show. Lately, I've been digging this "gentleman's" category. To me, this category should be defined as: 1) Svelte, classy/dressy design (i.e., not tactical, although tac knives are probably my favorite of all categories); 2) Ideally, less than 3" blade length; 3) Light; 4) Discreet clip design. Some others I've been thinking about that weren't in video (many already mentioned here though): Benchmade: 485 Valet, 756 Sibert Micro Pocket Rocket, & 380 Aller; Protech: Newport Tuxedo, Sprint; CIVIVI McKenna; WE 914 Anodyne; Gerber: Straightlace, Jukebox, Quadrant & Pocket Square; Kershaw: Launch 4, Chive; Michael Zieba MS3; Chris Reeve Mnandi; Kizer Lundquist.
Christian Molick I’m sorry but what the hell do you even mean? Like I know honey comb has a smaller pattern but I’m at a loss for word about what the hell you at talking about.
I carry my minimalist bowie in classy situations. And we all know Nick has the king of all zombie knifes zhunter for life. Great video Zachary anf Kurtis.
Blade HQ I don’t really have a classy knife but I thought that with it being so small no one would be scared and it actually saved my brother in law’s tux from the dastardly little threads that were coming off it lol
Knife addict here, love the crkt ceo reminds me of a mini samurai sword.. Like the Apple slices scene😋 , also the we miscreant and carbon Leek. Awesome vids great work guys!
Its funny. Im from Switzerland and grew up with victorinox not only pocket knives all kitchen knives its so standart and nothing special.. But cool to see how our brand gets love around the globe
You know how you spot the gentleman when you go out into the countryside in inclement weather? In among all Goretex outerwear he is the one in the tailored tweed jacket. All your knives are for people who wear Goretex.
Great choices guys! I would add the CRKT Urban Trapper petite, Benchmade Valet, CRK small Inkosi and Sebenza (sorry, I have them both in the exclusive Knife Art carbon fiber), William Henry E series and while I'm in the high end and after my exhaustive search, the not so readily available Gareth Bull Shamwari and my personal top choice, his Trapper.
Just picked up the CRKT CEO and I'm glad that I saw this video a year into the future. Great profile, snappy but smooth, and blends right in as my new EDC!
Great video, and I’m glad you finally addressed the serious deficiency in the last video.
😁😁
About the fake carbon fiber on the CEO? It fooled me.
What about smith and Wesson border guard?
Never got this...what makes a knife classy...or not?

Nothing says "classy" like clipping your nails in public.
ikr, its all about getting someone else to do it for you in public.
like...just who of class cuts their own nails ?
Plus, the SD comes with the scissors. The Victorinox scissors can work as nail clippers, without creating such a thick knife.
How about out the Case Toothpick in Mother of pearl? beautiful gentlemans folder
I was brought up not to cut nails in public i find it unclassy ,just like not wearing belt on your pants 👖 also not classy ...Cold Steel Kudu 😂 😂
@@rjosepha great call! Actually, that MoP Case would be more gentlemanly than ANY knife depicted in the video :o
Ok hear me out lol...
You guys should do a "Best Fidget Knives" video.
Kinda silly sounding I know, but a selection of the most buttery, snappy, and satisfying knives around would be pretty sweet to behold...
All my Benchmade Axis Lock's and my TJ Schwarz Perpetua's are my favorite fidgets.
I'm a spyerdco fan boy but even I grab my 940 for the fidget factor
They already made a video about the Boker Kalashnikov!
Get a “bolt action” defense pen. I couldn’t see spending money on a stupid pen I will end up losing so I bought a cheap one off Amazon. I think I’m going to invest in a good one now that I’ve tried it out. Bolt action is a fidgeters dream.
My mini Kwaiken is my biggest fidget knife. So smooth. I also cant help but flip my Bestech Kendo, another good fidget blade.
CRKT CEO is my "dressy" knife. Love it so much I bought a spare. The thumb stud took a week or two of use to get used to, and I would prefer a flipper setup, but the ergonomics and blade are just classy as hell and it doesn't scare people.
That said, you arent supposed to put a pen in the outside of a jacket pocket. Inside only
I just brought a ceo flipper. Haven't got it yet. How has yours held up over the year
i've been EDC'n the CRKT CEO for the last few months in the office & it's been fantastic. Very unassuming & stealthy for the office environment, which i feel is needed, but sharp as heck & looks great in the pocket.
I’ve been doing the same but I guess I’m a little too rough on mine though I’ve replaced the pocket clip twice... other than that I love this knife
How is it opening does it have the fidget factor? Asking for a friend
My pocket clip broke while inserting into my pocket smh. Great knife in all honesty
You aren’t supposed to have pens on the outside of a jacket... ever
Cut my own pear?? Madness you peasants I have my butler do it for me
This is why we couldn't figure it out! Thanks for illuminating us.😁
What a pesaent a brown profile picture
That gave me a laugh like the Monty python rabbit scene.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Do you have your valet fight your duals for to Sir?

Zac has changed since being at BladeHq. He went from hands on blue collar to white collar wuss.
I would polish off the “CRKT” if I were to wear it with a blazer. I don’t want to advertise it’s a knife.
Well people not in the know would probably think it's an off brand or some weird pen brand in college I kept a SOG Tanto Trident elite in my pocket because of how casual the clip looked in my jeans...then I bought a Microtech Ultratech Bounty Hunter and that totally killed discreet carry lol
Well only knife people would likely recognize what the CRKT means. Could be a good conversation starter.
Only people would would know would be people who know what CRKT is, otherwise no one cares. If they know CRKT they probably like knives too
The uninitiated probably wouldn’t recognize the name and for those in the know I can imagine a knowing smile in passing
I carry a Laguiole knife in an Amourette wood handle with corkscrew. This is my gentleman's carry.
I think the Boker Urban Trapper would be a great gentleman’s folder because of the different sizes and varieties that they come in!
Finally the CRKT CEO gets some shine. Love this knife. Can honestly say that this knife is a must have if you like minimalist knives.
I’ve been carrying the CEO for a while now. Really a great knife. Very low profile and absolutely fantastic at opening excessive numbers of envelopes.
CEO answers the question of “what would a folding filet knife look like”.
The Swiss army passes the lunch room test while most others don’t.
Kurt says he only has his coat pockets because he’s not wearing pants, but he’s ignoring the good old prison pocket.
I just assumed that pocket was already full.
I would put a switch blade in there especially I'm going to be sitting down a lot.
I love the blade on the Swiss Army knife. The classic spear tip is near perfection.
I'm an absolute sucker for gentlemans knives. A classy knife is quite the statement piece.
The first knife looks like something from a John wick movie
I believe John Wick was using Microtech Ultratech.
I have 3 generations of folding Buck knives. All the same model all from my family. I find comfort in that heritage.
My go to gentlemen’s knife is a Protech Newport “tuxedo”.
Classy and classic! Great choice.
You all remember that time Ben thought the M16 was a gentleman’s knife? It made me chuckle. Good Ol Ben... we miss Ben...
Some of these are just as bad to be fair...

It's Friday my dudes and I just got home from work. No water here.
What the!?! No protects in tuxedo?? C’mon now
Should have thrown in a Kizer Söze. Design screams class and looks like an ink pen in pocket
I hate to say this, but please lose the wheel of indecision part. It's just boring and a little cringy. Love the rest of the show though.

fancy knife for me is a laguiole with olivewood handle or lately a lionsteel barlow (ram horn scales) ;)
I carry my buck spitfire everywhere and it rides the line between hard use and classy perfectly in the all silver color scheme
That Gold Class Bugout is classy af.
My current fancy knife is a Microtech UTX-85.
Kizer Feist, such a simple design, front flipper and clean lines, simple class.
I notice that you put a knife in the hand on the shelf behind Zac! 👍 That is cool!
I carry my CRKT/Ruger collab knife as my EDC. Love this little thing
Nothing says "classy" and "gentleman" like... "Miscreant"
🤣True true, but maybe better than the M16?
@@BladeHQ Maybe by a hair...
I just picked up the Spyderco Smock and it is a pretty slick knife. Something about it feels gentlemanly to me.
While I like mine too and choose it because it wasn't a leaf shaped blade. I consider it a little to big for a Gentleman's knife.
Chris Reeve Mnandi is my go to gentleman’s folder.
Amazed that either of the Spyderco Vallotton Sub Hilts didn't make this list. Such a classy looking knife.
And the guy that designed the CEO has the best last name in the world. And its stamped right there on the blade. (Eh, that's why I got one anyway lol)

Opinel no2 has become my favorite gentleman’s carry
I like the CRKT Drifter for going classy. It's slim, simple, subtle, sharp and sharp looking.
am i the only one that finds it weird that a guy named onion made a knife called leek

Makes sense to me.
Ever since I won the Powerball all I seem to do is wear suits and cut delicious pears with classy knives. Kurt was dead on.
I own 3 Swiss army depending on where I’m going I chose one of the three, non threatening and California approved.
Non threatening is why a Swiss Army knife is my EDC. Pull that out and people see a tool not a weapon.
Can it be used in self defence

I carry my William Henry when I'm feeling fancy. Oh also of note, my name is William Henry...
Match made in heaven!
@@BladeHQ will Blade HQ carry some William Henry knives anytime soon?

That's Spanish for "the whale's knife shop"
Benchmade 940, carbon fiber. Beautiful knife, great size, super light weight, little bit of flash.
“I just can’t take him seriously.” Said the guy wearing a bow tie.
Says the guy with the shitty pfp
@@quima5844 looks like someone has a fragile ego
Bow ties can be great if done correctly, this was done very poorly
@@quima5844 you clearly wear bow ties poorly

my dad bought me a kershaw leek red blackwash about 2 months ago and i love it
No WE 704?!?! You guys, it is SUCH a good gentleman's knife. I spent hours upon hours of time in a suit. It is amazing.
Where is the CRKT M16 (only OG’s will understand 😭)
What is up guys :'(
Tymothy Benzinger 😭
legend says he still argues that it's a gentleman's knife. we miss him
WHAAAAT IIIIIISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS UP GUYS
Will Ben Blue now be called OG BLUE?
Cold Steel Rajah II Lockback Kukri in all black is my classy knife of choice.
You know how you spot the gentleman when you go out into the countryside in inclement weather?
In among all Goretex outerwear he is the one in the tailored tweed jacket.
All your knives are for people who wear Goretex.
Great choices guys! I would add the CRKT Urban Trapper petite, Benchmade Valet, CRK small Inkosi and Sebenza (sorry, I have them both in the exclusive Knife Art carbon fiber), William Henry E series and while I'm in the high end and after my exhaustive search, the not so readily available Gareth Bull Shamwari and my personal top choice, his Trapper.
Why doesn’t anybody still make a good spine lock
What about cold steel?

Just picked up the CRKT CEO and I'm glad that I saw this video a year into the future. Great profile, snappy but smooth, and blends right in as my new EDC!
A true gentlemen has their pears cut for them by lesser people😉
Spyderco Chaparral in any iteration - classy and cutty!
That first knife you showed us looks like a samari sword
I have one of those SAKs with the nail clippers. Honestly the best nail clippers I've ever used!
I was genuinely surprised at how awesome they are! -Zac
The most important part of wearing a suit and looking classy is flexing on plebs, and the knife in my collection that flexes hardest in my Norseman.
