    I appreciate that you touch up a knife. It gives a better idea of it's capabilities. Every knife I purchase, I end up touching up the edge, because companies don't normally ship as sharp as I like.

    i own it and i got it on pre order i love it. it is a fun toy it is smaller than i normally carry but it takes a great edge and its different then most other knifes you can have in Californian. if you aren't sure if you want it get it you wont regret it. the only down side is the red on the button will rub off. the button also needs to be fully pushed to open it so it wont go off in your pocket. buy it you wont regret it

    Hey Chris, this has nothing to do with the Kershaw but I just got that jx5 today and it is bad to the bone! I named it after my wife, Heather seeing as how she bought it for me. It hung with a certain highly touted pack axe while performing a side by side chopping comparison. It has earned the position as my primary chopper/ wood splitter. I was kind of surprised by the fact that I could not find your name or logo anywhere on the knife. Thanks again for designing this knife. It's a winner!

    Great review. I’m in LA, LA, Land L.A. so the two inch law is BS but, you gotta comply. I’m on a knife buying binge right now and this one is on it’s way. I just bought and received two Protech Calmigo’s and having a blast with them. One is all blacked out SWAT model and the other is Rose Gold. Love them. Currently on the the way is my Microtech UTX-70 CA (Expensive!) HK Hogue Micro Incursion (Back Order) and this Kershaw Launch 4 that’ll be here by in a couple days. I have to say, this Launch 4 is bad ass bang for the buck! Lastly, your demonstration on cutting was great. With this Launch 4, it’ll be easier to buy the other colors due to price. Not a lot of companies allow you to due that because of price. Can’t wait to get it!!

    Hey Chris,
    Can you order it from Bladehq.com or any online website? Is it against the law for shipping an auto-knife across the state line? Do you have to visit their store and buy it in person?

    $70 is worth for the steel alone, throw in that it's a U.S. made auto and it becomes a deal, but that's always a relative thing, I'd much rather have that knife than a football ticket or a meal at a fancy restaurant. Blade hq has them, including a Damascus exclusive.

    @f22shift 6 лет назад

    New York sucks in this sense. I would own one already and it’s not worth shipping to a New Jersey friend and then again.
    In Manhattan a cop spotted the victorinox tiny keychain knife on my brothers keys clipped to his jeans. He had to go to court and pay a fine. I’m sure much less dangerous than the box cutters the newsstand staff were using. Lol

  • @lucylu7389
    @lucylu7389 6 лет назад +1

    I have been obsessed with this knife ever since you played (yes you played) with it in a previous video. I want one. I covet it. But I'm not going to buy it (haha) because it's too expensive to lose to the Cal cops. They or some security guy would have to check out the laws and regulations of their particular jurisdiction, and I would never see my little toy again. So...o I bought a much cheaper definitely illegal little stabber to play with. It's not made in the U.S.A. It comes with no reviews and is probably going to fall apart quickly. What can I do? Sometimes I need instant gratification. I want to take this to Christmas dinner and impress all my relatives that yes, I am as wacky as they have long suspected. Thanks, Chris, for a very simple but overwhelming video.

    • @lucylu7389
      @lucylu7389 6 лет назад

      This is not a reply; its an addendum. I took my little monster to Christmas dinner. I think they were impressed. My son tried to stop me from carrying it in the car, so I put it in my shoe. (No, officer, I have nothing in my pockets that might hurt you.) You see how wimped out Californians are about self-defense tools? Shesh.

    ''You Don't Need It, You'll Just Want It'', thats about 80% of all the knives I own if not more. The same goes for my guns. Most of them I don't really 'need' arguably I just want. If I lived in a state that cared how long the knife I owned is and/or if it opened using a spring id likely consider this, but I don't.
