@rhysdixon2597 No problem importing these or any other knives. As long as you're not contravening State laws, you should be fine.

The optical zoom is 25 x. After that, the digital zoom kicks in to 100 x.

okay that's clear. but How did you use the digital zoom in one movement after the optical zoom?

Just translated your comment. No. Have not used this camera in a while. Have been using the Canon EOS R for a long time now. The G3X is quite an old camera and I don't think it is in production any more.

​@@GearSlobспасибо за ответ. А как вам g3x хорошая камера или не надо ее покупать. Хочу купить ее с рук, Стоит или не стоит покупать ее? Или поискать другую камеру? Мне нужна камера для походов путешествия.

@@Митяй-у5б Я его имел и отдал. Через год купил снова, потому что для меня Canon PowerShot G3X - лучшая камера!

Nice one ! Did you get the clip point or the Wharncliffe ?

Thanks for your thoughtful comment on this 5 year old video. Apologies that you wasted 4 1/2 minutes watching it.

Think that should be fine. From memory, you can get a 13" laptop in there.

It will be fine. I got a zen book pro 14 oled in. iPad also fits no problem.

Think it was an international limited edition, so you would have to look on the secondary market. Just get the Flytanium G10 scales instead.

The Bugout has a pretty serious fan club, but the Deka is all round better value.

Maybe if the choil was a little bigger, wouldn't be a bad thing. Doesn't stop me from carrying it frequently the way it is now. A button lock would be interesting but as far as I know, that's not a Voxnaes thing.

Disagree with you about the Drift. Carried mine yesterday. It's so reliable and comfortable. Don't understand your comment that 'it's not a good cutter'. The blade grind is very thin, and Vanax holds an edge for a long time. Not sure you will like the Waypoint if you don't like the Drift. Thanks for watching.

@@GearSlob I have the drift man. It can’t even slice an apple without using a lot force. Maybe your cutting open boxes with it. I carry this knife mostly for cutting fruits and food in general.

Sounds like you might need to put a fresh edge on there. Like I said in the video, the edge on mine ,out of the box, was dull. Sharpen it up, and you'll be a lot happier.

Yes. In Oregon.

The Veros are great knives. Functional and well made but with a really distinctive and modern look. If you're happy using the Buck knives, maybe stick with them for now. Thanks for commenting and your support.

Not the first time it's happened and certainly not the last. Cats have no respect when it comes to content creation.

Nice one ! Hope you like it. The White and Jade G10 versions are in stock as well.

That sounds really good. With lighter scales, the action should be better and if the lock bar access is improved, they'll be on to a winner ! Thanks for letting me know. I'll keep an eye out for it.

Put a fresh edge on mine and it's like a new knife. I find with most knives, it takes at least a couple of sharpenings to remove any fatigued steel that remains from the factory belt sharpening. This is my only S90V blade so I don't have anything to compare it to in terms of steel performance. The lock-bar access sucks and the action is sluggish but once I get it in hand, I remember why I like it. Thanks for watching.

S90V sucks to put a proper edge on. I would recommend letting a professional sharpen it and check to see if there was a significant difference. Your sharpening tools might just not be up to the task. Are you using diamond plat?

Hopefully, Quiet Carry has sorted out their edges, and you end up getting a decent one. Since I got my Drift, I've carried it more than any other knife in my collection. It's a great knife.

@@GearSlob That's reassuring. The fact that it's impervious to rust lured me in. I've heard mixed reviews, so I'm hoping it will be a mainstay for me. Thanks!

I do like the Yaru but it would be so much better if the lock bar access was improved and deleting the flipper tab is an excellent idea. Same for the F5.5 if the choil was a little larger. In a nutshell, that is pocket knife design. What may be perfect for you or me, does not work at all for someone else. Glad that you liked the video. Thanks for watching and all the best.

Wow ! That's pretty disappointing that your Magnacut blade has chipped. The new Dekas in Magnacut are relatively cheap, so it makes me wonder if there are some compromises in the manufacturing ? One thing I didn't mention is that the action on my Deka is glassy smooth. I usually disassemble my knives and give them some love but haven't had to with my Deka. The upscaled versions of the Bugout, the CF/S90V and Aluminium/M390, should be excellent. They're quite pricey.

For me deka wins in every category. More durable construction (don’t go into the high end bugout - they are too far out of price range to compare to magnacut deka), smoother action, grippier lock and thumb studs, better more aggressive blade grind that is just as capable for slicing but better for delicate work and stabbing. I think you got a lemon because the MC in my deka is more likely to roll slightly than chip in my experience

Deka in Magnacut with custom scales wins to me. But i might prefer the Bugout out of the box (Assuming you are unwilling to upgrade the Deka scales). I do prefer the action on the benchmade though. Did you have the drop point which chipped? curious as the Warncliff seems very durable to me

Yep. Wonder how many more broken Omega spring victims there are out there...Benchmade or other brands.

I have a 940, Bugout, Mini Bugout, and a Deka Wharncliffe. Never had any issues with the Benchmade springs however the Deka broke both springs in a month. Hogue sent replacement springs so hopefully the springs were just a bad set. I have aftermarket replacement springs if needed...

Sorry. Was not my intention to tease. For some reason, there's not many Yaru reviews in English on YT, so when I make mine, I will do a comparison with the F5.5.

@@GearSlob looking forward to it! Very little information out there in English on the Yaru. I was between the two but ultimately went with the F5.5 Ti because it was cheaper. Unfortunately, expensive knives aren't really my thing and now wish I just went with the Micarta instead. As I suspect the hand satin finish won't hold up over time.

The Yaru ? Might have to do a video on that one...

Totally agree. Voxnaes knows his ergos. Get the Ti version and see if you can bring yourself to use it.

It's definitely black. My knife has darkened up a lot over the last couple of days. Urban EDC do have a version in green micarta. Here's a link: urbanedcsupply.com/products/urban-edc-f5-5-green-micarta?_pos=9&_sid=7c27e223b&_ss=r

Looks black on my iPad.

Cheers ! Thanks for the encouragement.

Hope you get a decent factory edge on the Waypoint. Mine wasn't too bad. 'Abysmal' is a pretty good description of the edge on my Drift, although it did give me the opportunity to sharpen Vanax, which was nice.

Haven't noticed any corrosion so far. Carry the Drift a lot and don't live too far from water... The clip and other parts are meant to be marine grade stainless steel so that sounds a bit unusual.

@@GearSlob I can send you some pictures. I did take it scuba diving for a week so it was getting unusual treatment.

It would be a tight fit but I think so. Wouldn't be much room for anything else.

Quietcarry.com Think the Drift is $300 but there is an option with G10 scales. The Waypoint is similar in price.

I have a TRM Neutron 2. It's a great knife, but I almost always grab the Drift. It just feels better in hand and I definitely prefer the QC thumbstuds. Would like to pick up some contoured scales for the Neutron. Apparently they completely change the feel in hand.

@@GearSlob I have 2 Neutrons, one with flat G10 and the other Contoured. The flat ones are more grippy, but the Contoured fill the palm of my hand alittle better.

@@GearSlob what angle are you sharpening the Drift at on the worksharp? I do 17.5 on most knives.

I've since got a KME and sharpen everything on that. The last time I sharpened the Drift it was about 18.5 degrees. Came up really nicely.

Glad to hear the video was helpful to you. Cheers.

I don't have a 70-200 lens but I think the lens, on its own, would fit standing up. If it was attached to a camera body, you would have to reconfigure the inserts and place it on its side.

For a sling bag, you can fit so much in the 10L. Such a versatile option. Thank you for watching.

It's not really designed for that. You could carry a short bottle inside if you had to, otherwise you're looking at going to a larger, backpack type of bag.

@@GearSlob I've been hoping to see someone with a water bottle strapped to the bottom with the included straps to see if it works before making a purchase 😅

@@alexfns2427 you would have to cinch it down really tight and there’s no guarantee it won’t come loose as you’re walking around. From a guy that uses one of these slings every day (I have the 6L version), walking around and cycling, it just doesn’t work for a standard water bottle. There are flat pack type bottles that will fit inside (almost like a flask), but honestly I will just carry a small bottle around with me if I absolutely need it. Absolutely love this bag and after 2 years of daily use, all the materials have held up very well. The only noticeable wear is on the material lining the padding of the shoulder strap.

@@alexfns2427 I’ll try that !

@@alexfns2427late comment I know, you could easily cinch a water bottler to the bottom

OK. Could you expand on that ? Not quite sure what you mean.

@@GearSlob half the time the object was lit....other half it was lost in less than light like a shadow...so you turn it one angle and it's like the knife has no light on it

Right. It's tricky as the main light source is daylight coming from a window on the right hand side. I'll have to figure out a way to light the shot more evenly. Thanks for the observation.

@@GearSlob you can have a small lamp between you and your hands ...but I was also thinking how the black on that knife really wanted to obsorbe light

Feels like they release a new knife every week. Would be hard for them to keep up with stickers as well.

Not sure what you are saying but thanks for your comment.

Ended up with the EOS R. Wanted to use RF lenses and still be able to use EF/EFS lenses. The best of both worlds.

Duly noted, pokemon hat guy. I used a cheap lavalier mic for this 3 1/2 year old video. My equipment and recording techniques have improved since then...

@@GearSlob i shall check it out

Thanks for the positive comment !

@@GearSlob Very welcome, really very good video work or creation in all respects! More success in strength, health and have a nice day everyone! 👍☀️👆

Not quite sure what 'rounded shapes' you're referring to. Seems like you preferred the original version.

@@GearSlob Yes, exactly. My wife has Tote V1 charcoal and it is a real beauty. Tote V2 is dull, almost no accents, shapes more rounded. Ditto for the Sling bags. But - we will go for the Everyday backpack V2, as it is still nicely "boxy" :-) I know that aesthetics is a matter of personal preference ....

@@PetrKrenzelokentirely subjective. I feel the polar opposite

I think Peak Design got the shoulder strap just right. It's thick enough so that it is comfortable to wear for long periods but not overly bulky. Weight distribution depends on what you're carrying and how you have the bag set up. Personally, I haven't had problems with the bag becoming uncomfortable, but I guess that everyone's experience will be different.

@@GearSlob thank you for the prompt reply - and for posting the review video.

Cool ! Have fun with it !

@@GearSlob have a really cool substation from the early 1900s near central montana I want to go test this on.

It is waterproof?

Sorry, no idea. Think it might be time for an upgrade !

@@GearSlob I actually just found out about that! Thanks for that though!
