Colonel Blades - The Best Fighting Knife for EDC | Episode #40
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 июл 2024
- Mickey visits legendary combatives master Al Salvitti, creator of Colonel Blades, in Philiadelphia, Pennsylvania. At an early age Salvitti earned a black belt in TaeKwondo and fought for over 20 years. He routinely trains US Special Forces on edged weapons and originally created Colonel Blades to simplify / speed up the their training process.
For these same reasons of simplicity and effectiveness, the Colonel Blade is ideally suited as a personal self defense knife. With little to no training ordinary people can wield this powerful tool. The colonel blade is also an ideal concealed carry weapon carried comfortably inside the waistband (IWB).
In this video Al Salvitti demonstrates the basics for training how to use colonel blades. Al's son, Nico Salvitti also shares his experiences.

Great tool! Can’t wait to get one for sure!! Great video Mickey!!
I ordered two knifes through Bravo Company and received them this morning. They seem very solid and it is exactly what I have been looking for but never knew it existed. I will order more as gifts for my friends. Thanks
Perfect
Awesome video.. very informative
That looks like an improved, or evolution of the karambit. Me gusta! :)
So practical. This guy's a simple genius.
Tommy and Scotty Spooner are class act dudes. Picked up alot from them many moons ago
Nice video. Cool design.
I REALLY want a clip of the guy shooting at the end of the video!!!!!! That made my week
Hey look Isaac, there it is: ruclips.net/video/rX4Xr_PRpbo/видео.html
Please share ;)
exellent design best ive seen ..
Mike's Freddy Mercury look sold me on this knife
0 McParty14 I was thinkin Frank Zappa, but that works too. Freddie and Frank's love child maybe?
Ed L hahaha!
Nice
Ill take it
CarryTrainer no offense, just havin fun. Love your videos.
I've been seeing these a lot. (John Lovell recommends this knife) I think it's time to get one! Thanks!
Do it. We have been long time fans. Probably some of the longest. Can't argue it's simplicity
When will these be available again? Sold out everywhere.
Hi, I am curious, aside from its larger size, how is this different from the la griffe? In general the usage and design seem to to be similar. The design philosophy also seems to be very similar to the TDI.
I've got one. Absolutely love it.
Hope you used our code!
CarryTrainer got mine off Amazon some time ago for a great deal. The NCO Low Viz is hands down the best defensive knife I’ve ever owned regarding EDC purposes. I wear a suit to work, and can easily conceal the blade without printing.
How do i get a code?
You can’t find this knife anywhere, and I haven’t been able to for a long time now.
W.P.S knife
@@gamalhines9598 Thanks, I’ve seen that and I’ve thought about getting it, but I prefer a fixed blade knife. Maybe I’ll give it a shot though. Fox makes great knives.
fricking awesome
This Knife opens the way for many defensive and offensive moves. Might have to get me one MOLON LABE,, Y’all 🐺💥
How would you compare it with usual punch dagger?
I had no problem getting mine. Great price and fast shipping. The include the trainer and a tac pen with refill ink.
are they stll available?
Which angle should I sharpen the blade? My knife is dull as hell
These aren't available anymore?
Are these punch daggers? Cus their illegal in my state so idk if i can get one legally.
These guys are hilarious 😂
Is this legal to conceal carry in New Jersey and Philadelphia?
It's like a karambit with the ring in the middle. Way easier to use. Brilliant system. I'll definitely check into getting one.
A karambit is meant for hooking and slashing. This is intended to strike, although it surely can slash and be used in reverse grip.
Not available anymore?
Shut up and take my money! 😂 was on the fence on the colonel blades. Now I will buy one. Or two.
Let them know I sent you
God bless ya brother. Educate the worthy.
Are they discounted?
What's its advantage over a push dagger?
Awesome system,yes I like this Knife.

No earthling chews gum that way.
its some fucked up american intimidation
Joe Dickinson *imitation
@@sam.snead. no, that's him trying to be tough lol, I meant intimidate.

lol😅...yeah Joe, and i meant that it was an imitation of an intimidating attitude..if that makes sense..? ..i probably just didnt type it correctly at the time😕🤷🏻♂️
sorry bout that🤦🏻♂️
😄😆😅😂
@@sam.snead. I get it xD
Never been a knife guy but sir you sold me on this, buying it as we speak
As a tool for a very bad problem it excels. Do right
Ka-Bar TDI with finger guard
Use Rat Ka bar is better
@Jim Knight why?
I tried to order one of their folders from their website. The website
said they were out of stock, but I could sign up to receive notification
when they get some back in stock. The notification function didn't
work, so I sent them a Facebook message asking them about it. After
several days, they finally replied, but they didn't really answer my
question. So, I commented on one of their posts, telling them I've been
trying to get a straight answer from them for about a week. Instead of
reaching out to me with anything that could be construed as customer
service, they BLOCKED ME! Are you kidding me?! Now, I've made it my
personal hobby to tell everyone I know online, and in person about the
AT&T-like customer service I received from Colonel Blades. They
WILL answer my question "When will your folders be back in stock?" one
way or another.
dep7.com/product/colonel-blades-folder-knife/ you can buy them here
And not a word to the public. WTH?!
Got same run around from sccy fire arms. They really gave me a hard time from the start! 👎 sccy. Don’t Buy One!
Does it legal to carry?
is this blade legal in tx ?
OK, never seen this dude before. I agree with all the comments that the knife looks a bit sketchy. Honestly, from his look and the "Bruce Lee had nothing on me, OK?" I thought he was going to start saying he harnesses his chi so perfectly he doesn't even need to leave the house to kill bad dudes.
Take a look at who designed it, who uses it and who it was crafted for.
This knife is not sketchy at all...once I saw this thing I was sold. I bought it and honestly carry this more than I do any of my guns. It's very natural. It's just an extension of your hand. If you know how to throw a punch then you can use it. There's no fear of dropping it or having it taken away because your hand is wrapped around it. This is the first (and probably only) knive I've ever bought in my life for self defense.
will there be one with a micarta scales with s35vn
Couldnt say. But I will pass that along to the owners.
I'll stick with a normal pocket knife or one of the micro karambits. Benchmade also has a fixed blade with a similar angle but it's smaller.
So he "designed" a small karambit with a trigger guard?
This is nothing like a karambit whatsoever. Take a deeper look
Poor design. Unpractical
A karabit is a slashing blade this is a stabbing weapon (almost a push dagger). Both have draw backs I do like the Karabit like grip tho
@@antiheroes7972Firstly: In reverse grip you could use this like a karambit style knife. You would know that if you had Karambit training. Secondly: Everyone is entitled to their opinion. This knife is a cool concept but I think it needs some work. Chewing gum while you explain the product is a little ridiculous.
@@javierr.castillo1101 ??? Are you some kinda spec ops dude or do you play a knife fighter on GTA? I guarantee you don't wanna screw with somebody half way athletic packing one of these.
Ka Bar TDI or Colonel?
Why?
was he in Super Troopers?
Gotta have this now! Where do i get it?
Colonelblades.com
Also in PA. How do we get around the intent to inflict bodily injury, lawful purpose carry law?
First, I am not providing legal advice. This is my opinion. Period. Do the research yourself. I believe you are referring to the following
"It is illegal to own any implement for the infliction of bodily injury, which serves no “common lawful purpose”
A small fixed blade is not illegal.
The key here is intent. Self defense is lawful. Criminal intent or action is not. Always look at intent and place that into the context of the situation
I’ve been ask when is the proper time you would use it and then the other question I’m ask what would be the the outcome to the individual using the Colonel with law-enforcement on the individual using it
Lethal force is deployed for the same reason anywhere. The victim was in grave danger of death or great bodily harm
I have 2 similar knives. I have the K-bar TDI and the MT 667 Mtec neck knife. The Mtec knife is almost the same knife but smaller and with a warinclif point. The buety of this knife is that no-one will take the blade from the holder of this knife. Also good price point. I was looking at another similar blade the CRKT tecpatl. The CRKT knife is closer to a T-push dagger. The CRKT blade is in the same ballpark as this knife. I can see myself buying your in the next 3 months. Thanks. This is like a TDI PLUS knife. I like the TDI but wish it had the front finger hole like the Mtec knife. This bridges both worlds. I always like wearing my Mtec neck knife. It's my favorite neck knife.
Can i carry one of these in nyc.... the knife laws a very confusing i dont really understand what i could carry mayb you could tell me if its legal to carry in nyc
I will always tell you to check local law
Hi MIckey, has the Colonelblade company gone under? Trying to get hold of them. The Site is empty and no stock on Amazon.
Nope. Definitely not under. Back on line soon.
@@CarryTrainer Thank you kindly, will keep an eye out.
Amazing design for punching & puncturing, very strategic. Extremely tactical, great for military combat use. Would be hard argument defending the use of this knife in court, even for self defense. Would have to be a great lawyer.
A knife is a tool for cutting & puncturing specifically, and also for self defense, if need be. This knife is especially designed for stabbing. Combat use. Looks like a great self defense knife.
The notion of an indefensible tool due to its lethality is a fallacy. A fallacy based on the idea that the victim waa perhaps not in true jeopardy. Any level of deadly force is a last resort to stop violence against an innocent. If that cannot be proved it doesn't matter if a #2 pencil or a samurai sword were the tool.
Most normie jurors would now be very confused by your use of such big words and rational coherence. And one speck of a previous criminal mark on your record would surely secure you a place down in the dungeons partying with the sodomites by an liberal judge.
Couldn't find this on amazon, where can I buy this?
Colonelblades.com
CarryTrainer just ordered one
Is Colonel Blades going out of business? They do not have any knives for sale on their website and pretty much every other website that carried this knife is out of stock. I would love to purchase one if they were actually for sale somewhere. Thanks.
They will be back on line
I'm not trying to be rude, don't take this in a bad way, but does exhaling when punching of stabbing do anything? Or is it just how people fight?
i appendix carry my firearm now but i love this design
You would carry on your opposite side
Looking around I notice that colonel blades are out of stock everywhere. What's going on with these cool knives. I want one.
Google W.P.S folder knife
Looking for something like this at ur just under 3”...
Nice Blade✔
WHERE DO I GET ONE?
Colonelblades.com
Wow. Is there a store in Taiwan where I can buy it? It's easier for me to travel to Taiwan than to the U.S.
I like it because of how intuitive it is from the get go. Not sure I'll get one as I'm not sure how I feel about using a knife for self defense. I like having just two levels of force escalation. Hand to hand and a fire arm. A knife just doesn't send the right messages and I feel you could easily be demonised should you use it regardless self defense.
And when that gun goes empty, breaks, is taking away, or is unusable to use, such as innocent people in the line of fire? Then what? Do you ever enter a place that a knife is allowed but a gun is not? Options are life. Demonize away, I'm alive to present my case. The notion of force being demonized is often overused. If one is justified they had better be able to explain it.
CarryTrainer Excellent points. This is why you are the Master and I am the student. Thanks again Mick
I have a karambit but I think this might be better?
Many folks compare this to a karambit at a glance. It's nothing like one. A karambit is a hooked slashing tool. This can slash but its made for simple and effective striking. To be used by the lawful in defense of life
A karambit is made for the slash or hook and is really supposed to be double-edge to get maximum effectiveness with the hand-to-hand techniques, but that is illegal to own or use in self-defense. I find a single-edged Karambit to be such a diminishment of its intended purpose in this regard.This knife is more for the thrust and stabbing which to me is what I would rely upon more so in a situation, particularly if someone is wearing multiple layers of clothing in cold weather. Slashing would be more difficult to penetrate on someone with a shirt, overshirt or sweater and a jacket. Karambits traditionally come from areas where it is hot and less clothing worn lends itself for the slash to be more effective. But this also means that I must be able to wield it while wearing gloves in colder climates.
A karambit has a curved blade. The Colonel blade has a curved handle, they look similar at first glance. I personally don't care for the design or to carry it in the appendix carry. I prefer the Fox Karambit 479, I like to carry a knife in my pocket, the blade deploys when you pull it out. Yes karambit is technically a hook or slash tool, but you can also stab with it.
How do I order this... they are nowhere to be found.
Back up soon
Temple or Drexel University?
Temple University... I'm not familiar with it, but it must be near Philadelphia, PA.
Can't get the blades now because of Patent infringement case 2: 19-cv-00696 - ALFRED SALVITTI et al. v. SCOTT LASCELLES
What happened to colonel blade? The website is no longer carrying anything and all his social media is gone. Is he out of business?
Having a hard time finding any blades for sale.
R Mar me too can find anything on the website I think they moved the website
porn stache powers engaged...lol
The Dudley butchers knife is the same and been around for a very long time. Usedin ww2.
The Dudley Fighting knife is a completely different animal
A full pistol grip with a complete hand guard and the blade turned flat, 90 degrees. Not something easily concealed at all. Nor remotely like this design. That's why the US patent office issued several patents on it.
Single-edged or double-edged?
To be honest if this had no edge it would still work well
how much is it?

Looks like a mini Kukri
I carry a 9mm, winchester pocket knife, flashlight,etc, and I push dagger in my boot or on my side depending on what I'm doing, anyway I picked it out bc I box and I'm used to that motions.

Make sense
Puck my big gass!! I just bought kabar tdi yesterday (at an exaggerated price like 8x) and now this tool mocking me in face. This is definitely better than kabar. The intelligent trigger hole kills all other push knive. Seems like its going to be legend expensive and unavailable soon.
What happens when you need to slash. What about when your intent isn't to kill?
Your intent should never be to kill. It should be to stop violence against you. Slash? That knife will slash through a steel trash can. I've a video up doing it. FYI. If you pull a blade, a gun, bat, club or fists there had better be some real danger in front of you. We dont deploy an edge weapon to scratch someone.
Son look like son of Salma Hayek? No?
karambit is the best fighting knife, hands down... Buuuut my EDC is a balisong for multiple reasons; it's intimidating, and I can use it as an impact or striking weapon instead of only having a knife. Also training with a balisong is a great way to kill time lol
I would buy one!
But what if I had on some new jeans I just bought from Walmart I might get blood all on them 🤔
Wow! Nice knife. Too bad it's not made in the states or I'd buy one. First edge fighting knife for me. Made in USA.
I don't get hung up on that. What american made phone or electronic are you on viewing this?
CarryTrainer
I understand that concept. But when I can I buy American stuff. Always the American alternative for me.
Why not a longer blade ?
The question I'd ask back is why? You punch from sternum to spine with this.
Four inches is a good length to do internal damage and still be comfortable to carry. And it would be interesting to feel if a longer six inch blade would feel to unwieldly at the wrist joint with lateral motion when plunging into flesh or making contact against a hard bone with this particular type of hand position on the knife handle.
how this compares to a classical push dagger?
It doesn't compare. Far better
There is no comparison.A push dagger is a real threat.This off shape pos.
I bet you can't get one of these in taxachusetts
Get anuthing you want on amazon.What rock you been living under
I believe in the design, but I'm not sure that I want to stab a 300lb + big dude with an under 3" blade. Wouldn't slashing be best? I know a friend of mine a big guy was stabbed like 6 times and he still beat the guy up that had the knife. Later he sad he didn't even realize he had been stabbed at all, until the fight was done and the knife guy was on the ground. I really like the design but with really small blade I'm not sure if just stabbing works. Anyone out there have any kind of data from researching?
It also appears the knife has 'general purpose' capabilities that could be expanded upon? Especially when you consider we're not spending our lives stabbing/slashing folks. Thanks, and thumbs up!
I am not a proponent of using a tool like this for opening letters and trimming string. Like my sidearm it stays securely in it's sheath/holster, to be used for a dire situation. I carry a small folder for utility work
"Especially when you consider we're not spending our lives stabbing/slashing folks."
Bro', do you even get out much? Or relaxing walks, at night...in Detroit.
In deed buy there are karambits that are straight too.
Anytime someone says "im a blackbelt" without giving details on WHAT MARTIAL ART THEY ARE BLACKBELTS IN my bullshit radar goes off. No offense.
I live in Liberal ran Washington State...... I can not conceal carry any knife let alone a fixed blade.....
So, I have been carrying a Ka-Bar TDI folder for the better part of the last 5 years. The TDI allows the same type grip and punching style use of the knife.
Definitely a better way of fighting with a knife.
Good news the colonel is launching a folder
And negative on the TDI having the same grip. Angles are all different
yeah , right , speaking the guy who wear bandages on other hand point finger 😆😆😆 (just before cut his self with it) , "I never cut my other hand" ... you did it just before 🤣🤣🤣
I have one of those blades and it is sharp and I mean sharp I barely knicked my finger with it and with no pressure it gave me a nasty little deep cut it kind of scared me away from carrying this thing and I carry a pistol and benchmade infidel knife daily
You are not supposed to cut yourself
shape like ' badik bugis'
TDI Ka-Bar clone anyone. In some states it would be considered a dagger and therefore possibly a felony just carrying it.
Not a clone. Not even close and any individual must know the laws of their locale
legit blade. geometry and biomechanics go hand in hand
Take your normal fighting ability and put an exclamation point on the end. Your fighting ability is the statement the knife is the exclamation point!
Casey Buxton ummm, are you an employee? If not, that is incredibly weird.
Mack Durr It wasn’t weird, it was a quote poorly stolen from Doug Marcaida.
Whether it's stolen or not - and ill take your word for it that he's a thief, too - it's weird to offer up a catch phrase for a product, unprovoked and without compensation. You don't think that's weird? If I took a sip of coffee and turned to you and said "the best part of waking up is Folgers in your cup!", you'd think that was totally normal?
I got one and was into my 22nd training minute. Put my knife down and got some green tea to center my chi. Unknowingly sat on the motherfuckin Colonel blade and had to ride lying on my stomach in the ambulance to get it removed from my ass. I can vouch for this knives power.
What??
Such a great knife but for $80.00 bucks noway! I'll just stick to the tdi kabar thank you very much. Maybe if they lowered the price.
I finally caved in and bought the Lowvz. It's my new favorite knife worth every cent. Can't wait for the Colonel Folder. Keep up the great vids man.
Just bought 1 today
I was waiting for slashing moves, especially useful in knife against knife fights. Defange the snake cuts to the wrist, elbow tendons, and slashes to femoral artery, across the abdomen. Stabbing is good but I would like to see how the knife is used slashing to protect yourself from stabbing motions.
Yawn yawn. Let's be real street fights are dirty. The crap taught as applicable is often BS. If forced to violence. Be violent. Period.
Good old sword or asp or baton , can’t go wrong
When next man pulls a blade on you and you have the teach advantage of a retractable asp if you know what your doing man with a blade don’t stand a chance whatever shape or size it is !

Jim I carry a asp met police issue uk
Retractable , no bigger in length than a smartphone but it does weigh some

U like knives I take it
Good on ya mate

If you say so Jim
I was considering it till I saw the price. There's nothing special about the design IMO, and the materials appear basic. The steel (aus 8) is a budget/ foreign steel which leads me to believe its manufacturing is done overseas, especially since I did not see anything that stated made in the USA. I think they could do better on the price.....
preelenede pay better attention. There are options on blade and grip materials, and country of origin is listed for parts and labor.
I stand corrected, I checked again and found a brief description. Although my personal opinion has not changed I wish you all success....
What is their recommendation way of sharpening from this knife
As in angle? Stone type?
The CCW on the holster is cringe af
