Really cool, but $240 for 1095 and micarta? All you’re paying for is the design you can buy knives with better materials for cheaper imo.

Knife prices are getting out of hand. When I can purchase a quality firearm for $350 to $550, how can a rather simplistic knife design pretend to command even higher prices? 🤷

Really interesting video thank you!

at this price point, I can give one for each of my enemies

“Grivory” sucks and needs done away with for something better.

Oh I really like the aircraft pilot genre knife.

Four things: 1. Grind the back springs, spacers, and handles flush. 2. Square off the spring ends and tangs. 3. Center the blades. 4. Stop over tumbling the blades. All of these are easily doable and will put Case back in the game.

Hello, firstly, thank you for all the great content! I'm a chef in the UK, my pocket EDC at work consists of a Parker Jotter, a Sharpie and an Opinel #8 (and sometimes a Victorinox Climber), but I'm thinking of replacing the Opinel with something a little more robust and easier to keep clean. I've looked at Boker Atlas and Ontario Camp knives but I wonder if the Ontario might be too big. As it's kitchen use it doesn't matter if it locks and I'm looking at a blade of 4" tops. Can you help with any suggestions? Thanks again.

Do people actually want serrations any more? You lose the usefulness of an important part of the blade.🎸🔪

Benchmade is pricing themselves out of business.

Bro that is not a swiss knife thats a swiss toolbox

when are the new spyderco's releasing? got my pre-order in for the Lil' Native

super tinker!!!!

I think you have already answered your question. You are doing a video comparing many similar knives to a morakniv. Are there knives out there simular?...Absolutely but almost every knife except for a few haven't been in business as long as mora but all are trying to copy the mora...out of every you shared I pick the mora. I have every knife of your table except for 3. I am ashamed to say how many Mora's I own and how many I have given as gifts. I have two moras over 50 years old and they are still going. There is no question which the best knives on your table are....can all of them do the job? Yes....but factor in the price and the working history of a mora.....there is no comparison. The finn hawk has skinned many white tail deer for me along with the Mora's and Marttiinni's. In my opinion and price range...the Marttiinni is the only one on the table that can compare....keep in mind price, manufacturing history and qaulity. If I had to pick one knife to take to the field and bush craft....it would be the Morakniv companion in stainless steel. Even having to modify the spine for ferro rodding.....it is a great all around blade. Great skinner, great food processing and absolutely a great bush craft knife. It's the main reason why I own so many. And by the way...Mora actually sells blade blanks so you can custom make your handle material and style. I have several stag handled mora's that turned out spectacular. Thanks for the video. Really in depth and very I terrsting.

Is the cru wear micarta para 2-3 and manix limited edition or is it standard in their line now?

Anyone else notice all the tiny cuts on Seth's hands? It's like he works with knives.

Outdated and overpriced. They should be ashamed of themselves charging those prices.

I’m proud of you David, you actually announced the price of that new Benchmade with a straight face! 👍🤣🤣

that's straight up just a doohickey at this point

Still too small 😂 , try again !

Dude I love your videos man. I learn things I didn't even realise I should know.

Benchmade won't have your knives go dull and rust when a new model comes out.r And then tell you that you need a whole different sharpening system.😁😂😂

Love recurves and I hope they dont ever go away because people are too lazy to learn to sharpen them

You will never be David.C Andorson

I've never been a fan of Spyderco, due to the "hump", BUT the Native 5 is one smooth slidin' tool!! I juuuust might have to add one to my EDC rotation!! Thanks for gettin' me into trouble AGAIN!!

Sounds like a steel Donald Trump should endorse and carry

I've got one of those old Delica predecessors called the Clipit, with the pocket clip molded into the handle. It has the full serrated blade, which I hated because it was such a pain in the ass to sharpen. Still, I carried it for a couple of years while working in a warehouse until one day I was walking by a cardboard box that was about waist high and caught the clip on the flap and snapped it right off. I discovered that without the pocket clip, the knife was too thin and slippery to get enough grip on for me to easily open the blade one handed. That knife became my beater bench knife, it now just sits open all the time on my work bench in the shop and is used for prying and scraping mostly, or ripping bags and boxes open with those horrible jagged serrations when I don't care about saving the packaging and just want to rip it open in a hurry.

The Buck 110 has gone through close to 40 improvements since it was first released

Love this video concept

64

The original Recon 1 had the Ultra Lock, many said it was a Benchmade Axis Lock copy.

Quality control is a huge problem with case. You just can't buy one without checking it out in person. Fit and finish and failing locks are just a few of many issues

The last one is whole dentist tools kit🤣

Great Topic! and pretty civil comments. My take on the different brands 1. For hard use (sampling of construction materials) cold steel’s improvements and addition of the triad lock cannot be beat, however, Underrated for the same purpose is my tanto Griptilian and I get a lot less commentary when I use it instead of my larger than necessary cold steel. The CS knives do the job better for less money though. 2. For office work/environment, the benchmade stuff just works well. I think the axis locks on my 940 and bugout work better than the one on my older Griptilian though the S30V does not seem to be an improvement over the 154 on the older knife. 3. EDC knives that accompany me into the unknown? Spyderco. I have used them forever, starting with a 90s Delica that I recently rediscovered inside a recliner at my dad’s, through Enduras, a chaparral, manixs (not as good as the benchmade, what is up with the plastic control?) and now into paramilitary knives, I just have to agree with Seth on his brand taste because the Glessers have done such a good job with the different designs fitting nitches. Will a smock replace my 940 as my favorite office knife? That is next on my list.

I used to teach wilderness survival at summer camp with boy scouts. I loved it.

The new North Fork is the first Benchmade folder I've ever wanted to buy, the first Benchmade knife I've wanted to buy in 20 years, and compared to many other models in Benchmade's lineup, it's relatively affordable.

BM=BS

Seth what watch are you wearing in this video??

Get some special runs or batches of various Cold Steels made using different steels.

If Microtech made more conventional knives they'd have something. The autos are novelties and letter openers. Has anyone ever thrust the blade into something solid and snapped off the blade? Sure feels like that would happen.

All back locks should have the Boyd Dent

Benchmade’s designs are so much better than spyderco’s, but spyderco’s blade geometry is better.

It’s weird how Seth can do a whole video without talking about how big his hands are every few minutes. 😂😂 great vids guys just busting agates

Why would you want to split it?

Is there a deep carry pocket clip for the spyderco para or Dalica

Hey guys - I have a question about sharpening choils - spyderco tends to design blades without a sharpening choil, whereas many brands do (e.g., benchmade). Because of this, will one tend to get less sharpenings over the lifetime of a blade without a sharpening choil? If so, should one consider machining a sharpening choil into a blade without one, and if so, will it increase the number of life sharpenings?

I think the modernized Buck 110 and 112 needs to be included

I’d like to see more reviews focusing on individual knifes and then being used.

I enjoyed the history lesson. Thanks Seth!

id like to see Buck improve the Bantam series of knives. 4 position pocket clip would be nice. or 2 position. change the shape of the handle so that you can drop the blade shut on your knuckle the way you can with a delica. also the Kabar Dozier could use better edge termination. it feels wierd complaining about some of the most affordable knives out there, but they could just be perfect if they would update them.
