CJRB Ria its a great little knife
OK ok
Where can a fellow Kansan buy auto knives?
@@bsears85 the links in my description. All those retailers carry high and low end autos 👍
@@metal_complex thank you! Mostly asking as the places I've been looking won't ship them across state lines. Thank you again though!
I won't lie, I am jealous of many of the knives you have on the table. Keep up the good work, do i hear a give a way ha ha.
Loved this video for the background of each knife. Also got the Praxis from my daughter for Father’s Day! This was very interesting and love the fact you use many different knives, even expensive ones. Thanks for sharing MC.
Got the Praxis with Damascus for Father's Day myself. 1st Civivi I own.
daily: massdrop perpetua, picnics: kershaw bareknuckle, laundry: kershaw injection, farmers market: kershaw strobe, utility beaters: cold steel grik and kershaw barge
Happy Father’s Day brother. I had a great day with my son, pregnant fiancé, Father, and bro’s on the boat toady. I carried my zt0095bw on her.
The Cold Steel Mini-Tuflite is my dedicated package and letter opener. Great value for the $. Plus is easy to clean and sharpen.
Thanks you very much for the video. I have many of those knives in my collection. Happy Father’s Day! Take care mate
Don’t feel bad about not using the Dark Horse XM-24 bro. I’ll use mine enough for both of us.
😁
Really liked this one with your personal favorites. I have similar tastes in some areas. I love my AUS 8 RAT 1 that I got for $18. What an awesome beater. Works well. I also bought a 9CR18MOV Civivi, the Naja, similar to yours on sale for $39. What an excellent budget knife. Very smooth. I want a Spyderco, but haven’t gotten to it and not sure which one I want yet. I love Hinderer’s designs. I lust the XM-18, but don’t know if I’ll drop the coin. Maybe another ZT design of his. I cheaped out and got the Thermite. We’ll see. I’m not a nut for the Benchmades as much, but I do feel the Superfreek. I am carrying the Bestech Thorn, perfect EDC size and I’m a fan of the Sandvik steels (12C27) which are underrated IMO. I also got into Moras and love them. So useful. I have a few Bucks, a Buck 119, I carried and a 40 year old Swiss Army fisherman along with a few others. A Gerber multi-tool too.
By the way, what a mad cool wife you have. Mine puts up with my collecting, but yours goes looking for you. That’s special.
Purchased my first Hinderer
XM-18 OD Green.
Can’t wait to get it in
I’m fully planning on using it. 💯🇺🇸
Happy belated Fathers Day! I carried Cold Steel Broken Skull for over a year and just recently "up graded" to the Recon 1 Tanto. They are both very solid and I beat the tar out of them just as you do your RAT, Tuff lite, and Civivi. Great blades and you definitely get your money's worth out of them. I'm currently saving for a Benchmade Super Freek because I really want to try out M4 steel.
My son almost cried when those Pro-Tech Malibu's sold out immediately. He had asked for it for his 21st b'day and would have been his 1st Protech as well. Fingers crossed.
Happy Father's Day! How do you sharpen your knives ?
KME 👍
@@metal_complex I have found the KME to be an excellent system. Good choice, although I do appreciate the flexibility and value of the edge pro apex... if I was loaded, one of the wicked edge systems seems cool. Cant go wrong with any of them. I liked the KME stones the best however
I, using a edge pro apex and love it but man I eat thru stones with all these new steels I need diamond I believe I’m using regular stones with it and it get great results but go thru stones I would love a Wicked edge but I bought ever gadget and leveling glass for the edge pro I’m probably 500 all im
My son in law is a pilot in the USAF an his squadrons motto is "Death Rides A Dark Horse."
Happy Fathers Day! I just got excited when I found out you are in Kansas too :) Great video!
I wish wish WISH the Benchmade Mini Crooked River's blade spine went all the way to meet the bolster. That gap looks horrible but the colors and blade shape is awesome. My favorite is the Lionsteel and the Microtech OTF. May buy one some day if it doesn't have blade play. The paramilitary looks ugly but the one that would be in my pocket most because of reliability and good functionality.
I love your collection tour videos! Awesome knives.. let's be honest, have you ever opened even one bottle with that Carver custom scalpel?? I would be hard pressed to do so. Thanks for the vid.. very entertaining.
Actually yes! It works well! 😊👍
I have a "thing" with using everything I buy. I've been tempted with some that I knew I wouldn't use, but have been dissuaded by that. With that said, I do have fairly expensive taste, (not Hinderer expensive) but I have a custom shop 20CV full size crooked river to a 9400 to a smock all the way down to the rat 1 and 2 (D2) I even snag my old lady's WE Deacon from time to time and that was pricey. The only thing I won't carry is the PM2 that I have WAAAAAY too much money into because of the bronze titanium hardware, bronze titanium pocket clip, and SDK 24K gold shred CF scales. I won't carry that to work lol
That PM2 sounds so badass. Can you upload a video so I can see it?
i love my hinderer, xm18 harpoon spanto, kept it in the box for a year after i bought it, decided to finally carry it, scratched the pocket clip on the very first day out...
Awesome selection of knives but above all, your buddy jeff is badass! 🤣
My brother in law just gifted me a PM2 in Titanium with a Damascus blade.
Hate to tell you but Spyderco has never done a Damascus paramilitary 2.
In France .... no knives are legal outside.
Only at home.
You could hardly carry a toothpick on you 🥴
Got my sheepdog XL and a native 5 in Magnacut… feeling fairly validated in my blade purchasing decisions :-)
The protech strider ti may be the sickest blade ive ever seen. ProTech ill be looking into for sure.
Caveman Edge that is very descriptive. LOL
Holy crap i need a friend named jeff
Happy Father's day!! Love that Zieba .
Oh that Benchmade Crooked River custom....Got a chubby I won't lie..
😂 how could you not need a Damascus scalpel at church! Just Joshin ya, love that thing, I had the same reaction you did when you unboxed it.
I’ve got a Kizer Sheepdog in micarta on the way and I’m so excited
nice video! knives are tools and tools should be used. i have 1 gun-HK and 1 knife-Microtech
I hear you on the treating different knives differently for reasons unknown to me . Like my 0562 TI started getting used immediately but my 940-2001 has yet to cut anything . Don't know why . My 0562 almost replaced my para 3 in my pocket most days . Still keep a bugout in my back pocket most days for backup . And I always have at least two traditional slipjoints and some of those are just for looking at also .
I wanted the 940-2001 but just on principle, I refused to pay $340 for a knife that should have been $280.
I've paid more for knives but when I feel they're really gouging me...nope.
Nice bunch of knives MC... but that little thing...the Curtis ODT, $300, that is insane . No really, that is insane.
Ilove the houge ritter too,I don't carry it much,cause I like lightweight peices for edc,but if I could only have one,it'd be the ritter
Nice collection!
I'd happily Wicked Edge that Zieba for you just to get a chance to play with it.😁 God I love those!
Microtech Socom Elite would be carried in the "hypothetical apocalypse?" Looks like I need to get myself one of those right now lol.
Todd Begg (I have clone of this knife,even clone one of my favorite knives) and Lionsteel are the best!
the sound at 26:51 sounded sounded so familiar I looked around my room and played the clip back to make sure i wasnt insane wow lol
Can you or do you have a video of what tool you use for taking a knife apart
Nice collection.
What do I use my knives for? Opening boxes. What's in the boxes? More knives....
I open my sheepdog xl with a thumbflip and it helps
I've had a hand full of knifes ranging in price $150 is about as much I would pay for a New knife. The Spyderco PM3 I love and getting a Kizer feist in green G10 and black stone wash.
Sadly it seems like the "Jade" g10 is the Puke-y kind and not the wispy nice kind :P
As a semi newby knife nerd I don't think my life will be complete without a pair of rats and a pm 1 or 2
Great vid...Thank you...
I can’t stop thinking about the Malibu...all day every day.
Same here man. My son SO wanted it for his b'day gift and assumed I got it for him yet they sold out immediately. I could see the disappointment I his eye's when he opened his gift even though it was STILL a very nice knife (PM3)
I think Lion Steel is an under rated knife company in my opinion. I have the same Lion Steel knife in Damasteel. Ever think of doing a review on sharpeners?
Use a whetstone.
Great video! Happy Father’s Day
Great collection of knives. After all the explanations of all the knives, you left out the most important one. How in the hell did you get your wife to buy you awesome knives? That Dark Horse is beauty.
😅 I'm not sure. She just does! 😁🤷♂️
@@metal_complex Does she have a sister??? Hang on to her.
I'm a watch collector. Now I'm collecting knives.
What's the knife you've had the longest? I have knives from 20 years ago like my buck 110.
I have an old Slipjoint my dad gave me when I was 9. So 24 years or so.
We can carry whatever in Tennessee lol. A 2013 law made all remaining knives legal to carry which were switchblades.
I use my combat troodon a lot or did and now it’s stuck in the open position 😔
I've cut fiberglass with my rat 1 and completely destroyed the edge.
It makes me sad you don’t carry your PM2. I bought mine like 2 weeks ago and I love it.
Yeah,I've got a custom,and an exclusive in 4v that I'm very fond of
I have a zieba double tap 1 of 1 I'm looking to trade .
You've come far
Would someone be familiar with what type of washer system the Hogue Doug Ritter uses? Thank you.
PB 👍
If you don't want to answer I understand, but I'm curious if you carry a firearm.
Just subscribed. I have a question sir. Where in the blue hell can I get an SNG for $200? I can't find any for under $450
The Protech/Strider auto SNG collab is about $200-$225 at base when they're in stock
@@metal_complex thank you very much. I am just getting back into knife collecting. I have had my collection stolen. A buncha d-bags broken into my apartment and took it all. My Spyderco Shaman that I bought many years ago. It has been a devastating time for me. Again sir thank you
Happy father's Day and ps if u want any thing illiegl come to wisco all knives r completely legalized
ngl I was expecting more high end stuff from such a prominent youtuber. You don't have any Shiro, Holt, Koenig, Grimsmo, Strider/DDC, or Marfione in the collection?
I feel like if I don’t have S45vn or the next gen S95zn or whatever it happens to be I’m a total loser my m390 stuff and S35vn and definitely all my S30v stuff should be thrown in the garbage I don’t deserve to own my collection if I can’t add a S45vn to the collection what should I do Metal Complex?
I don't think the super freek has cerekote. I think that's black DLC. I carry that knife daily.
Where in KS are you located??
You use a knife to shape shipping labels?
Not usually but in some situations where I screw up and need a quick fix
What is king of the budget knives
Spyderco Tenacious
Where in Kansas are you? I'm not to far from kc
MC I love you bud, but it’s a roof, not a ruff
We say it differently here. Not gonna change.
First! Happy Fathers Day buddy!
I use everything. But only the rat gets punished
Busts out ODT: "aw its a cute chunky brick"
Says price: "Thats alot of dough for a little bitch brick" XD
Man the dark horse there it is gotta get me a super freek just because I'll never get a dark horse lol
Mine arrived last Friday... the M4 is amazing, you'd love it
@@ashmerch2558 My favorite Benchmade to date and overall one of my all time favorites.
Great vid buddy. I'll do it as well if you don't mind.
Sure!
@@metal_complex thanks as always
Safe Queen, term does not compute. LOL
I use Kershaw every day.
I just never have liked Gerber personally
you need to pick up a LUDT
I've got a review on it 😉
I prefer the casbah,it's same size,just lighter,and as far as action and lockup goes,there comes a point,it just doesn't get any better-I have three autos like that,the proteh newpoert,the mediator,and the casbah
I will become a patreon if you learn to pronounce Shaman correctly... :P
I appreciate the offer but im gonna keep pronouncing it the way i have been 😉
@@metal_complex Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lol
Hahaha
my dude, you don't need a 100 plus dollars knife to open boxes :)
bruh
Awesome collection! I'm about halfway through the video. But I'm seeing a gap here. No Sebenza 21.
I make a motion that we pool up and get MC a Sebenza 21 large for his permanent user collection. I would contribute a goodly sum towards the cause. Michaele_8891 on IG if anyone is with me on seeing this legendary knife as a permanent cast member let me know. Maybe one of the figurehead metal knights could take the collection, or someone else could work out the logistics of how it could work.
Oh man, thats WAY too nice. You really don't have to do that! 😅
Red Linen micarta large 21 on knivesshipfree makes a worthy candidate
I’d donate to that
@@crudmuffins2828 that's what I'm talking about. Lets do it.
Bro take a day off! Lol it's freaking Father's Day
Well, these are pre recorded. I actually take every weekend off 😊👍
Call me weard but i always use my rat 1in the kitchen.
Junk comes out of every country if you look hard enugh
I will pay good money to never hear you say shaman again
Or just watch something else
Some of these ppl man....
Wtf crawled up their rear end and died?
thanks for the content👍
Shedahhhh all are new....you wake up pls don not you lie on using beating knife
Ya... you're clearly new. I've got videos of me sharpening my knives that show the before and after. Caked with gunk, and then cleaned and sharpened. Thanks Sherlock, but your detective skills aren't doing you any favors here.
For future reference, just because they're clean doesn't mean they haven't been used. Thats called "general maintenance". You gotta use your head man.
