I'll be eager to know what you think. As it happens I ordered the orange and black one too, but this is what showed up, ha! 🤷♂️ Thanks for watching John!
@@mildmannerededc I'll be sure to let you know, I find myself gravitating to either larger knives these days or really small knives I'm kind of done with the 3-in to 3 1/2 in blade size.
This was a great watch for me. I just purchased it and it arrived last week. Really love the style of the knife and I had to go order it a little bit blind as there are few videos on this product. Love the knife and it is very different
Definitely a bigger knife but digging the profile for sure! The fact that they keep it slim for it's size can absolutely make a difference!!! Gotta do the quick flip...lol!! Thanks for the great look at the In Yan Brad!!!
Excellent early review of this great looking knife. Thank you. I was able to pick up one from White Mountain Knives that's now on it's way to me. Can't wait! Oh, and also just subscribed to your channel... I really like your mild-mannered review style.
Awesome, great pick up! The In Yan is flying a bit under the radar I think at the moment... it's a very nicely designed large folder and for the price and construction it gets a 👍🏻from me. Really appreciate the kind words and the sub, thank you Bob!
@@mildmannerededc yeah man…recently I have been into smaller knives, but I still like big, thin, clean knives as well. This has such a streamline profile
Definitely not free spinning. D shaped pivot on this custom collab with Assassin knives. Ali Express has sales on this on the official Kizer stores - keep an eye out - picked up for $48 myself. Incredible knife.
I like the color palette but I’m not a huge fan of the proportions. The weird transition at the bolster accentuates the fact that the blade looks too big for the handle, at least to my eye. Also, the weight… that’s more than my ZT 0640, which is already pretty damn heavy. As a side note, I’m just about fished with community service from getting caught for the old “pull and run.”
Bahahahahaha... yeah that may have been a questionable turn of phrase. It's a heavy knife, no question, but I think the dimensions make it better to carry than you might think. As for the aesthetics... I can see your point, not sure I agree, but that's always a subjective issue. Thanks for watching my friend!
@@mildmannerededc as a side note, do you still own the Civivi Pintail? I picked one up last week and love it aside from the flipper. I’m considering taking out the Dremel and removing the flipper but that’s a bit scary 😧 since I’m far from experienced with this sort of thing.
@@nicks8026 I do still own the Pintail. It's a great candidate for a flipper delete. I wouldn't trust myself with the task, but I'm sure you're up to it!!
I am very glad that you liked my design
Super clever design
Looks like assassin is a Russian custom knife maker and this is a production version of the ARGO. Stoked to check it out.
It is beautiful. I want it for my Kizer collection.
Kizer Micarta really is some of the best looking Micarta out there.
Just ordered it! My first Kizer for a very long time.
Cool! Hope you like it. Thanks for checking out the review.
Another great review. I don’t comment all of the time, but I watch all of your videos.
Thanks Daniel! I really appreciate the support! Glad to see your channel continuing to grow, great content.
Assassin is the designers brand, he's also a custom maker. I just bought the black and orange one and can't wait to get it in my hand.

For sure!! Yeah the old "pull and run" not sure I used the best terminology there. Bahahahahaha 😆 Thanks for checking it out my friend.
@@mildmannerededc lol!!!
This one is pretty cool. The more I'm seeing it the better I like it. Great review 👍
Great action and a large knife 🔪 without being too heavy or chunk eee. Very thin and elegant

Was curious about this Kizer. Thanks for the great review!
Thanks for watching!
In a world of boring 3 inch knives... be a KIZER IN-YAN instead! 100% in on this blade - thank you for the review.
Yes, ARM HAIR. A handsome knife.
Hope the arm bald patch grows back... winter is coming! Thanks for watching my friend!
Awesome knife now I want one. Thanks for sharing
Definitely think you would like this one! Thanks for watching!
Great video Brad as crocodile Dundee says now that’s a knife
It is indeed mate! 😆 Thanks for watching Josh.
The flipper tab on the Dukes is the one reason I have not wanted to purchase that Kizer
Very interesting knife. A bit large for me but probably a lot of people will dig it. Sure looks good.
Too big for me too... but definitely a nice option for those that like big, but not so big it's a pain to carry.
Where did you snag the one w micarta scales? Only options I'm seeing are OD G10 w black blade or orange G10 w satin.
It's on Amazon rn
I think this knife looks AWESOME!
It's a Jake knife.

check out the video of the Kizer production plant on YT. Pretty impressive.
Will do! Thanks for the heads up and for watching!
Hey, do you know if the pivot is keyed or free spinning?
Definitely not free spinning. D shaped pivot on this custom collab with Assassin knives. Ali Express has sales on this on the official Kizer stores - keep an eye out - picked up for $48 myself. Incredible knife.
Orange G10 or the one u have
Definitely not a 'carry in your basketball shorts' type of knife. lol
Bahahahahaha no! I could see a multitude of problem with that scenario. Thanks for watching Louis.
