Stefan, after 10 years of watching this video on and off I finally pulled the trigger and bought a Hubertus lever lock just like this one. It’s an amazing knife and will be my new EDC. I also just found out that since 2020, Hubertus lever locks have been manufactured by Otter Messer. I hope you see this comment. Thanks for all of the detailed, informative knife videos over the years!
@@disarmyouwitha Otter is a highly respected manufacturer. They make the famous Mercator knife (also known as the black cat knife). I think it's a good thing. The family that owns the Hubertus brand wasn't able to find a successor to run their own factory so they licensed the business to Otter.
Another great review. I think you do an excellent job reviewing knives, Stefan. In particular, I like how you give the history/origin of the knife, which gives it significance and desirability for a potential collector.
So you're a salt-&-tomato kind of guy. My Dutch mother used to keep me guessing by using either salt or sugar on the tomatoes we had. I think the ones with sugar were meant as an incentive to eat more of them. I haven't had them with sugar for some decades now. Most of them now come adorned in Italian dressing now. Beautiful knife. To me, the release mechanism is particularly German. Well presented, as usual.
Thanks, Stefan! I finally have a Hubertus Springer coming my way soon. It's an older one from before reunification (etched "W Germany") and not rostfrei. I look forward to adding it to my collection knowing thanks to you that it is a quality knife.
Other company that has long time experience with Lever Lock Automatic knives is Mikov. It´s a Czech company from Mikulášovice, that makes traditional hunting knives and Lever Locks for many decades. The lower-end production knives have 420 or 440A blades but high-end Mikov Lever Locks have RWL-34 or Damasteel blades and handles from exotic woods,horns and bones. Some of the cheaper autos contain f.e. saw, can and bottle opener or corkscrew.
Very informative video on this particular knife. Had one some years ago and lost it on a hike. Just ordered another one and excitement is abound. You have a great channel so as a knife and gear nut I had to subscribe.
Great review. This is a very neat design, particularity for the time is was patented. I'm glad you detailed the mechanism, most interesting. Thanks Stefan.
Dear Stefan, great video again !!! what a superb review including some historical information. This german switchblade springer is absolutely fantastic... and I was not aware that this knife was a typical german one.
Traditional German kinives... there is, of course, the "Mercator" or "Black Cat" knife - but other than this: it's the "GroBer Springer", the huntsman's/gentleman's switchblade knife, awesome work of art!
Cool never even thought of that! I guess we forget that knives were once an everyday tool that everyone carried. Nowadays people ask why do you carry a knife and is it legal. I guess nowadays most people think of them as weapons not tools.
Hi there, thanks so much for your post, even though I realise it's been quite some time since you produced it. I live in Australia and although I've looked at various sites selling these beautiful knives, it seems difficult to establish which knife is which, outside of product numbers which show nothing when entered on google etc. Which would you suggest as the best site to look or examine these products in detail? Thank you! Keith.
Good question! I store it with the blade folded since the knife was designed for this purpose. Does it reduce the knife's lifetime? I don't know. Some people report that even after a decade or longer the Hubertus springs still work fine. If a spring breaks it can be replaced fairly easily without taking the knife apart.
Thanks Stephan... Some months back i was doing reserach on which would be a good auto-Knife for me.After your extensive film i was very impressed with a good all round explanation and attributes.Coincidentally i had found a site which offered the hubertus. and also other knives-I had bought a japanese one already--five miniutes later literally i found this blog/film. I was thinking damm because the japanese kniife was junk.on a positive when i saw your blog i thought this is the knife for me,so i bought it and i am very happy,i use it all the time,and as i work alone an auto is very very handy.I dont see what all the fuss is about criminality.I mean a kitchen knife is a fixed open blade which is legal in my country,yet an auto is illeagal(Anyway that is another debate) I am very pleased i saw your rundown and when i purchased my hubertus it was as you said..your hands may as well have came out of the screen and let me hold it!!
Wesley Caesar 150 english pounds ,they are $259.00 average.on autoknife.com that is the site i used the knife was sent first as a legal lock knife and then the spring came seperate to the uk,very good srvice
Hi Stefan, not sure if you still doing reviews. Question for you; I purchased this knife, and also purchased a Thiere "le companion". I can't seem to get a good sharp edge on the Hubertus, which I can on the Companion. Any thoughts? Have you found the same?
0:08 Für mich hättest du nur diese Szene in Dauerschleife laufen lassen müssen....ich wäre begeistert gewesen! :-D Feiner Springer...und die von dir angeführte Historik zum Messer/Hersteller,absolut top! Vielen Dank dafür! 30 verschiedene Arten eines Springmessers,habe ich da richtig gehört....uff...beeindruckend! :-O Viele Freude weiterhin mit diesem tollen Messer! LG Stephan PS:Wohlwollend habe ich vernommen,das es in deinem Video nur Gemüse zu essen gab.....gut gemacht! ;-)
Wonderful review. Question: for long term storage, is it better to have blade open, or closed? It seems to me that blade open keeps less tension on the spring and prevents "metal fatigue", but some people disagree. What do you think? Thank you.
Awesome Stephan. Could u tell me who invented the lever lock ? I was wondering and needed more info on it for a video on my lever lock by Microtech I plan to do.
Hunter Green As a matter of fact, nobody knows who invented it. It has never been patented here in Germany. Virtually all knife companies in Solingen have been using it for decades. Nowadays it's mainly used by Hubertus and sometimes by Boker as well.
Your review is great, your ways of presenting the knife are very natural and full of sense. The knife is very elegant, it truly is a gentleman's knife. Could you please tell me how much does it cost? I went on their site but they do not show the prices.
my hubertus needs a replacement back spring it has an ordinary back spring like any slip joint that slows down the blade and keeps it from bouncing back closed well mine is broken it cracked in two I cannot find parts here in the U.S.A if anyone reading this does please let me know
Beautiful presentation. I am curious, will these develop blade play like most stillettos? Will the leaf spring wear out in after years of use? The craftsmanship looks a lot better than an akc lever lock, but I haven't held a hubertus. I just wish these had harder steel than 420, I have seen to many old nice knives that are almost unusable from years of sharpening because the "soft" steel, a buck knife is 420 and I have to sharpen that knife far more than even a 440c blade. Makes a bit of a difference for me because if i buy a quality knife I'm not just buying it for me, I hopefully would pass it on..
+Paul M. Leverlock mechanism is completely different than a stiletto. Every leverlock I've had including Hubertus, Mikov, AKC, etc. were rock solid with no bladeplay at all. :) If you want a classic leverlock with modern premium steel, take a look at the Mikov Predator in RWL-34 or PMC-27 Damasteel. Both are amazing European steels comparable to S35VN/ELMAX.
The point of buying a collector knife, is you don't use them EVER. You cherish them and take care of them. Oil them when they need it. Keep them away from dust. Never sharpen them. You admire them. preserve them. That's how you collect a knife. Otherwise buy yourself a 40 dollar Syderco, a nice Every day carry. A good hubertus runs at 300.00 USD baseline.
+Frank Gee Not some of us. I take pride and get much pleasure from using well made tools, but do so with a sense of responsibility and take precautions. Spyderco might have made it's place in the average man's "edc" role, but that doesn't mean I want to use one. Every one is entitled to their own ideas and we have different tastes(although most people are pretty bread and butter, not me). Use it and use it well, thats what the maker would want. Plus, it's kinda of a bold statement to whip out a $500 knife and the ladies love it for sure If you are prone to lose things or are clumsy you can disregard everything I said though,haha

This knife, or rather a variation of it, was my first automatic knife. I purchased it in the early 90's somewhere near Frankfurt. It is a quality knife that holds an edge and still works as well as it did new. One caveat, it should be kept from grit and lint that you might find in a pocket, in other words: keep it in a sheath or you will have a difficult cleanup. Taking it apart is not trivial, It is held together with brass rivets, you have to grind off the rivetheads and drive them out, and have some brass rivets on hand to put it back together. Unlike your example, but as pictured at 3:17, my blade has cutout for finger nails. If the knife is working correctly you cannot use it to open the blade, but if the blade is stuck, see above, you can use it to force the blade out. Mine has a saw blade that looks just like the one in that picture, it works well. The seller warned me that I could not take it back to the 'State's... Right.
those lever lock autos are interesting. microtech is making a leverlock auto currently. and im sure the hubertus is way more affordable even all dressed up
It's not easy to open with left hands, but easy enough to quickly switch back to your left after opening with your right. I'm sure if it really matters to you, that you could find a left handed auto.
Thank you, Mark! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Unfortunately, I'm not allowed to carry this switchblade here in Germany (and I know it's the same in Australia). By filming the opening sequence at a public picnic area I broke the law. But don't tell anyone! ;-)
Ok, i wrote it a bit clumsy. I ment that all switchblades with a blade more than 8,5 cm are forbidden (and all otf´s, no matter, how long the blade is), not all knives in general. And all Mikov-Knives are above 8,5 :(
hi, vielleicht kann mir einer hier von euch oder du stefanmir helfen..ich seh in vieler deiner videos diese messerständer für jeweils ein messer. ich finde auf amazon aber immer nur 6er oder 10er oder einer die dann aber 2 auflagen haben und nicht so ein pyramieden artiges ding wo an die auch halb geöffnet oder nur mit der klinge auflegen kann
ich finds schade jetzt nicht aus meinr sicht sonder aus der schicht der leute die nicht so gut englisch können..aber geile videos und wehe du höst auf ;D
I had a lever lock automatic knife back in the 80’s when you might get it confiscated by the Police, but, back then, you wouldn’t get sent to jail for having one.
My pleasure! I forgot to mention their website which has an English and German version too - mikov(dot)cz Btw the now popular and expensive Microtech Cobras are more than inspired by Mikov Predator Lever Locks ;). But that´s already another story which doesn´t belong here.
Could it be possible to have an elegant switchblade? I didn't think so but obviously you can. Something for the Tactical Hipster, I think.. Thank you for a very interesting video on a very interesting knife. Also, your Nalgene might just be the least scratched up Nalgene I've ever seen. You need to get that SOB dirty my friend.

11 years old and this video is still interesting and informative! Kudos~
I just bought my first Hubertus and I’m so excited!
The Hubertus pocket knives are now made by Otter Messer, Solingen.
@@StefanSchmalhausoh interesting! Is that good? Or, just different?
Forgive me for my ignorance on the subject. =]
@@disarmyouwitha Otter is a highly respected manufacturer. They make the famous Mercator knife (also known as the black cat knife). I think it's a good thing. The family that owns the Hubertus brand wasn't able to find a successor to run their own factory so they licensed the business to Otter.
i thoroughly enjoyed your review sir, as always, you are a master in illustrating classic European knives, thank you!
Thank you for your very kind words!
I just bought my first vintage hubertus leverlock! I love it very much. A new in box multiblade 9 inch made in 2000.
Good choice!
I have 2 vintage Hubertus lever lock knives. They are both beautiful and functional. Very interesting review in this video.
Thanks for watching!

Thanks for stopping by, Troy! Happy New Year! Here in Germany we still have to wait a few hours.
Just found your channel. I like the history you give with the knife.
To me lever locks are forever associated with the character Johnny Cade from The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton. So cool.
Stay golden ponyboy !

Great video and now that another knife to my wish list. :)
Oh you are a true master Stefan...
Thank you, Ivan!
Thanks, I enjoy your videos.
Excelent review Stefan, very well structured and informative! Could you recommend a good retailer to purchase one of these knives?
I have the same spork! Very nice.
Wow I love this knife!
Great video, really enjoy your reviews. Would like to see some cooking videos with knives. Enjoyed Rocket Salad video.

Thx for the knowledge, big fan...

How do you fix the spring
Meinst Du den kleinen Hebel an der Seite?
what's the brst way to store your switchblade? with the blade folded or in the open position to relieve tension on the spring. thanks
Where can I get this in the us?

I've kept mine closed for 9 years until I sold it last year. The spring was as springy as ever.

@@StefanSchmalhaus which knives do you do use a lot?
@@joecostner1246 As you can tell from my newer videos, my most used knives are French knives.
Hey Stefan, great review as always. It does not seem so but is there any blade play when it is deployed? Cheers!

Very nice review. Beautiful design. I wonder what the price is?
Beautiful piece. Classic German engineering 🇩🇪👍
I have one ,bought it yeas ago now I can't find them.I would like to obtain a camper.
my hubertus needs a replacement back spring it has an ordinary back spring like any slip joint that slows down the blade and keeps it from bouncing back closed well mine is broken it cracked in two I cannot find parts here in the U.S.A if anyone reading this does please let me know
I think you can get a replacement spring right from Hubertus.
You can order backsprings
Where can I purchase this knife? It can be shipped to the USA
Beautiful presentation. I am curious, will these develop blade play like most stillettos? Will the leaf spring wear out in after years of use? The craftsmanship looks a lot better than an akc lever lock, but I haven't held a hubertus.

Would like to buy one
What's really puzzling is how did Hubertus become the patron saint of hunters?! LOL
I have a few really old ones
This knife, or rather a variation of it, was my first automatic knife. I purchased it in the early 90's somewhere near Frankfurt. It is a quality knife that holds an edge and still works as well as it did new.
One caveat, it should be kept from grit and lint that you might find in a pocket, in other words: keep it in a sheath or you will have a difficult cleanup. Taking it apart is not trivial, It is held together with brass rivets, you have to grind off the rivetheads and drive them out, and have some brass rivets on hand to put it back together.
Unlike your example, but as pictured at 3:17, my blade has cutout for finger nails. If the knife is working correctly you cannot use it to open the blade, but if the blade is stuck, see above, you can use it to force the blade out. Mine has a saw blade that looks just like the one in that picture, it works well.
The seller warned me that I could not take it back to the 'State's... Right.
Thanks for sharing your insights and experiences!
those lever lock autos are interesting. microtech is making a leverlock auto currently. and im sure the hubertus is way more affordable even all dressed up
These are so cool. If I'm ever getting an auto folder, it'll be one of these. Is it easy to open it with your left hand?
It's not easy to open with left hands, but easy enough to quickly switch back to your left after opening with your right. I'm sure if it really matters to you, that you could find a left handed auto.
+brottarnacke I think it would if you hold it upside down(lever facing floor) and use index finger to control and fire lever.
Paul M. That's exactly what I was thinking. Pulling it like a trigger.
Great video, as ever. I had one of these in my youth, but here in the UK they are very much forbidden and can land you with a 4 year jail sentence 😞
What about Kitchenknives😂Insane Law, here in Croatia all type of Knives are Legal, also any Dog Breed
You seem to play cards with interesting people. ;-)
Hi Stefan, is it correct that these are now produced by Otter? If so, did Hubertus go out of business? Thanks!
Yes, it's true. Hubertus was owned by the Ritter family but none of the children wanted to continue the business. So they sold it to Otter.
What is the knife at 3:21 called?
I'm sorry, I have no idea. It's an old ad for a switchblade with a shell extractor.
Ich muss ja ehrlich sagen, dass ich nie wusste was das für komische Dinger an "Springer" Messern sind. Aber recht schön anzusehen.

Those small automatic knives were usually part of sewing kits.
TRES BEAU COUTEAU MAIS QUEL EST LE PRIX SVP
sweet
Please send me one slim-line stag and one large springer both switchblades
How do i use this site!!!! Everything is in German.
Thank you, Mark! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Unfortunately, I'm not allowed to carry this switchblade here in Germany (and I know it's the same in Australia). By filming the opening sequence at a public picnic area I broke the law. But don't tell anyone! ;-)
Du hasst ja ein Grund 😂Picnic!!!
Ok, i wrote it a bit clumsy.
I ment that all switchblades with a blade more than 8,5 cm are forbidden (and all otf´s, no matter, how long the blade is), not all knives in general.
And all Mikov-Knives are above 8,5 :(
hi, vielleicht kann mir einer hier von euch oder du stefanmir helfen..ich seh in vieler deiner videos diese messerständer für jeweils ein messer. ich finde auf amazon aber immer nur 6er oder 10er oder einer die dann aber 2 auflagen haben und nicht so ein pyramieden artiges ding wo an die auch halb geöffnet oder nur mit der klinge auflegen kann
Die von mir verwendeten Messerständer sind von W. R. Case. Such mal auf eBay mit den Wörtern "case knife stand".
danke..und vielleicht könntestdu wie bei deinem ersten vid wieder was deutsches machen
GoranPlaysTV Mit Sicherheit nicht. ;-) Das erste Video ist nur aus nostalgischen Gründen überhaupt noch auf meinem Kanal abrufbar.
ich finds schade jetzt nicht aus meinr sicht sonder aus der schicht der leute die nicht so gut englisch können..aber geile videos und wehe du höst auf ;D
GoranPlaysTV Die Mehrzahl (ca. 80%) meiner Abonnenten spricht kein Deutsch.
I can live with the fact that I can't carry a switchblade but I can't own them here in holland either :(
Stefan, it is illegal to carry switchblade in Germany, am I correct ? Such a shame. This knife is true classic.
Wonderbah!
I had a lever lock automatic knife back in the 80’s when you might get it confiscated by the Police, but, back then, you wouldn’t get sent to jail for having one.
My pleasure! I forgot to mention their website which has an English and German version too - mikov(dot)cz
Btw the now popular and expensive Microtech Cobras are more than inspired by Mikov Predator Lever Locks ;). But that´s already another story which doesn´t belong here.
Could it be possible to have an elegant switchblade? I didn't think so but obviously you can. Something for the Tactical Hipster, I think.. Thank you for a very interesting video on a very interesting knife.
Also, your Nalgene might just be the least scratched up Nalgene I've ever seen. You need to get that SOB dirty my friend.
