Love your show, I know it's only a very small part of what you do, but don't stop doing it, it builds a connection with you purchasers. There are loads of knife shows but none that I know where it's the designers and there's no bullshit. I live in the UK, I have just ordered a lander 3 clip point, can't wait for it to arrive! I lot of online USA knife stores have a lot of terms to ship to the UK, most annoying is the minimum order of $200. You should mention it on your RUclips show, if you don't think it will upset your stockists, only one in the UK and they haven't got much stock. Keep it up guys 😁
What i like about this show it is EXACTLY what we all fell in love with at blade hq and knife banter, for the first few seasons. I want to say thank you for bringing that enjoyment back for us
Guys! How cool is it that Knafs will be in a movie! I'm loving yalls weekly videos. Kinda came at the perfect time when I feel like the knife vids were starting to all feel the same. Keep it up. Thanks
I was just watching an old BladeHQ knife banter vid with these two talking about the whole range of side opening automatic knives from Piranha. They convinced me to buy a Piranha P1 Pocket. That vid is 7 years old according to RUclips. I wonder if they remember filming it. Also I know that Knafs isn't an automatic knife company because it kind of runs counter to their focus in the knife design space, but I'd love to see if they can design an automatic knife that also has their unique character and aesthetic.
You uploaded this at 6am PST, it's still dark. I'm awake - let's do this "nite" thing!! Edit: I'm back from the sale, Lander 1 & clip point Lander 3 joining my Lander 2 G10!
I love my Lander 2 Clip point. I agree that the paper micarta does feel a little slippery when you feel it, but it surprisingly doesn't really effect my grip when I use it. I love the overall aesthetics of the combination of the clip point finish, gold thumb studs, and the brown paper micarta! Definitely my favorite Lander aesthetics-wise. Looking forward to see how the handles patina!
Always love the videos you guys have been putting out. Each episode is entertaining and has something fresh. Having that footage of the movie set was unexpected and just super cool. I'll be watching that movie just to spot some Knafs. "I'll remember this Austin" LMFAO!!!! Sasquach, definitely no. UAP's, definitely yes.
I'm sorry I am the last to know where you went after Blade HQ!!! It was never the same without you. Excited to find you and also your collab with Homestead! Subscribed and joined the newsletter!
I really love the smooth paper Micarta on my Lander 2 clip point. As a matter of fact, I usually sand and polish all of my Micarta scales. I loves me some smoooooth❤
I have the lander 2 clip. Love the look and overall design of the knife but the scales were too slick for me. I sanded them down with 400 grit and it added just a little bit of grip and contouring and I love them now!
Ben, it's not a tank. It's a Ferret, an obsolete British Army scout car. It was designed post WW2 and saw use throughout British Army service through the first decades of the Cold War. It's been out of service since the early 70s, replaced by the Fox/FV721, which itself was replaced by a completely tracked version of the Scimitar tracked vehicle family called the Sabre.
Could we talk you guys into selling just the charcoal micarta scales, the paper micarta scales and the moondust micarta scales separately. In the L2 and L3 sizes?? If I said pretty pretty please!?!?
Your handling of the leak is a funny as it is mature. Big kudos and, yup, that the "world" manages to keep working is no small miracle. Even if it's mostly in some cases. ✌🏼🤘🏼
The way you said Guillaume Bouchard 🤌 Thanks for the show guys, really love watching you! Ps: French Canada isnt really a thing, there are franphones all over the place, but Québec is the only province where french is the only official language.
They REC’d your reveal! That’s my favorite knife store so I’m glad there’s no bad blood. Don’t feel too bad, Mike Kent also ruined my grandma’s 101st surprise birthday party. He didn’t ruin the surprise, we just weren’t allowed to have it in the store because “liquor licenses” or whatever.
Ben's moustache is giving me some Yanni vibes or even an 80's kids show host. 😂 and thanks for reading my comment!!! Big fan of my blacked out Lander 3, awaiting the Lander 4 drop!
Lynch clips are great. I have 2 of them, both of which are on Spyderco's. One of the knives was a custom Yojimbo 2 from Wander EDC that came with a Lynch clip and I really liked. I later order a Para 3 and the default Spyderco clip is way to long for that knife so I ordered a short Lynch clip and its perfect. They make a solid product.
Wow, I was never really drawn to the Lander (huge banter fan tho! 😍) but with that clip point it looks so gorgeous!! Hopefully I’ll pick one up once I’ve ticked off some of the others on my hit list. Gotta get that sexy textured aluminium crossbar lock WE Banter first!
Hey guys! Lyle at REC. Very, VERY sorry that I grabbed the wrong knife for that video... I LOVE Knafs! Grabbed the Lander 3 clip point instead of the knife I was intending to make a video about... We love Knafs and I am very sorry for the mix up. Thanks for being super forgiving about it. - Lyle
As a broke college student living on his own, the Black Friday Lander 1 deal was just enough for me to snatch one! Super pumped! Great episode today, but disappointed in y’all’s lack of faith in Bigfoot!! People will say I’m crazy, but I got first and second hand encounters… the woods are a beautiful and wild place. Love the outdoors and those noises 😂
I would love to hear your encounters! I've had a couple hair raising experiences down in south Florida/ever glades myself. One where no one under the sun could tell me that what I seen was an escaped zoo ape... Nope not a chance, I was watching the nostrils flare through my night force 25x rifle scope and it was only about 170 yards from me. Not fully exposed but the top half was and that thing was every bit of 3 foot taller than I and I'm 6'1. I watched it for about 2 mins before it walked off, he knew something was up but I guess he didn't see me but he was dang sure getting some type of smell that was making that nose work over time.... Two days later in the same area I heard knocks that was fairly close to me and I could smell something very foul and I guarantee it was that animal that I seen 2 days before... I have been over the event many many many times in my head and the only thing I can come up with is it was a squatch. I talked to a warden a couple days later and he told me there has been ape sightings by multiple people and they believe it was a gorilla that escaped it's enclosure and I was like no sir that was not a gorilla I've seen plenty of gorillas in zoos and this wasn't no 2 second sighting I watched him for what felt like 10 mins but it was actually about 2 mins and I'm observing this thing through a 3500 dollar rifle scope that's ultra bright and clear not some 20 dollar wally world special. I know what I seen wasn't a gorilla and I know this wasn't some human in a costume or something like that.
If Knafs is looking to "disappear" the 14C28N Lander 1 in G10, I'm glad I now have three of them (I hope they last forever)! The contoured, G10 handles with light texturing are so, so, so comfortable! They feel like giant jelly beans! I'm gonna ruin them by installing Skiffs. Just you watch, Ben Petersen! Just you watch...
This video sold me on the 3 clip. The shape of the 2 clip point isn't for me, but the shape of this 3 is like a Buck 112, and the handle is very similar too. In fact, the size isn't far off either. Clip points are out of fashion these days, which is a real shame, because I love them. I'll let you know what I think of it!
Update: Received it, I love it. Came centered, no blade play, smooth action, functionally sharp. Steel took an edge easily, and deburrs so easily that the burr disappeared before the deburring stage of my sharpening. Very thin behind the edge, and that's for real, not just a 30° angle making it look like it's thin behind the edge. It's traditional barlow thin, bordering on Opinel thin. It doesn't just have cutting geometry, it has cutting OH GEEometry. The scales are smooth, but they have a tack to them. They don't feel especially slick. And the way the gold liners look like brass, and the micarta looks like wood, is just gorgeous. It's the modern grandpa knife of my dreams.
Hi. I’m not sure if you want to know what those German insults mean. 😂 A Knafs slipjoint would be amazing. Please make sure that the backspring is flush in all three positions.😊
Hello Knafs, for those w/closed minds, it wouldn't matter what kind of evidence that would be shown, they'd find a wat to justify their own closed mindedness! There are vaaaast areas of wilderness in the US that man hasn't been, plus which in the world. Case in point, the native Americans are where the "Hairy Man" came from. Discount things as you will, but I know "nothing is IMPOSSIBLE", period. Just because if you haven't seen something doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Just say'n. Keep up the good work and vids. Be safe and take care, "God Bless", sincerely, Randy. 😇🙏👊
Perfect example a knife companies waits 3 weeks then later a new version of the original this is why in 2024 I decided ask myself do I really need this new version ! ? Is this a real EDC do I need another box to throw in with the other knife's version one , two and three 😮.
So SASQUATCH! Where can we find the models to print. These are really cool, might inspire me to do a set of Lander scales featuring bigfoot. Ironic since both are made up, that is the moon landing and Sasquatch,
Ok about the sawsqwatch question then how'd explain all of the an ancient drawings on cave walls by different cultures all over the world of a similar looking creature
Thank you for the visit Ben & Crew! Y'all are the real deal-cast and crew are Knafs fans all around!
I love how chill you guys are about this stuff, it’s a much better way to approach business.
And they are completely okay with competition! A rising tide raises all boats.
Sigh. The prototype on the desk was me. I feel called out.
Jokes aside- love the videos and you guys rock! Happy holidays!
AJ

Woohoo!! Another awesome Friday with Knafs. Thank you!!
Thanks so much for the shout out guys, that was awesome!
Guys! How cool is it that Knafs will be in a movie! I'm loving yalls weekly videos. Kinda came at the perfect time when I feel like the knife vids were starting to all feel the same. Keep it up. Thanks
When you make really good products like this starts following you! Keep it up. Happy thanksgiving!!

Lol It wasn't these 2..... way back then the bhq staff was diff ppl...
@nickmartino2839 search "bladehq piranha automatic knives" on RUclips and it should be the first vid that shows up if you don't believe me.
You uploaded this at 6am PST, it's still dark. I'm awake - let's do this "nite" thing!!
Edit: I'm back from the sale, Lander 1 & clip point Lander 3 joining my Lander 2 G10!
Your business model is great, and i think it's awesome that you guys were on set of an Angel Studios movie too!
We were honored to have them!
I love my Lander 2 Clip point. I agree that the paper micarta does feel a little slippery when you feel it, but it surprisingly doesn't really effect my grip when I use it. I love the overall aesthetics of the combination of the clip point finish, gold thumb studs, and the brown paper micarta! Definitely my favorite Lander aesthetics-wise.

The weekly show is amazing, loving the army green Knafs shirt.
Always love the videos you guys have been putting out. Each episode is entertaining and has something fresh. Having that footage of the movie set was unexpected and just super cool. I'll be watching that movie just to spot some Knafs.
"I'll remember this Austin" LMFAO!!!!
Sasquach, definitely no. UAP's, definitely yes.
I just ordered the Lander 2 Pocket Knife - Black G10 - Clutch Lock and I can’t wait for my new Tool Burrito
The grey stone wash you guys have is easily the best blade finish I’ve seen on any knife
I'm sorry I am the last to know where you went after Blade HQ!!! It was never the same without you. Excited to find you and also your collab with Homestead! Subscribed and joined the newsletter!
I really love the smooth paper Micarta on my Lander 2 clip point. As a matter of fact, I usually sand and polish all of my Micarta scales. I loves me some smoooooth❤
Please please please make that small clip point a hollow grind. That would be heaven. Haven't bought a knife in years but I'd definitely buy that
I just ordered a Clip Point L3 1st thing when I woke up this morning on Black Friday!!
I love your guys attitude. I know my company would panic and fire so many people over this.
I have the lander 2 clip. Love the look and overall design of the knife but the scales were too slick for me. I sanded them down with 400 grit and it added just a little bit of grip and contouring and I love them now!

I love that you know all of this. Thank you for sharing!
You gotta believe! Love the videos! Just picked up three Black Friday special Landers.
Could we talk you guys into selling just the charcoal micarta scales, the paper micarta scales and the moondust micarta scales separately. In the L2 and L3 sizes?? If I said pretty pretty please!?!?
I agree. There are several newer scales only offered on full knives that I wish they sold separately.
Agree!
I actually prefer L1. Make the scales for L1 too.
Good for replacing worn-out scales!
NO!
Your handling of the leak is a funny as it is mature.
Big kudos and, yup, that the "world" manages to keep working is no small miracle. Even if it's mostly in some cases.
✌🏼🤘🏼
Lynch NW clips are phenomenal! I have one on my PM2, Endura 4, and Blur.
The way you said Guillaume Bouchard 🤌 Thanks for the show guys, really love watching you!
Ps: French Canada isnt really a thing, there are franphones all over the place, but Québec is the only province where french is the only official language.
Great video guys! I just purchased my first knife from y’all, the Lander 3 Horizon Blue G10.
I got that lander 2 clip and I absolutely love it it’s perfect. Great job Knafs
Hey Ben had never heard of funeral potatoes before you, made them yesterday for Thanksgiving they were a hit!
We have funeral potatoes every holiday.
Stache suits you Ben!
They REC’d your reveal! That’s my favorite knife store so I’m glad there’s no bad blood. Don’t feel too bad, Mike Kent also ruined my grandma’s 101st surprise birthday party. He didn’t ruin the surprise, we just weren’t allowed to have it in the store because “liquor licenses” or whatever.
Hey just wanted to say thanks for the last giveaway. I managed to be that guy. Can't wait to hold the lander 2 tanto.
Shouldve called it lander tantwo
You guys could maybe do a video showcasing bens entire knife collection
Ben's moustache is giving me some Yanni vibes or even an 80's kids show host. 😂 and thanks for reading my comment!!! Big fan of my blacked out Lander 3, awaiting the Lander 4 drop!
I love Yanni. I’m thrilled. Thank you for this. 😂
@@benbanters Yanni, Master of piano! I feel like the next step is to add the little patch under the lip, for full jazzman! 😎
The mustache looks fantastic Ben!!!! Handsome btard lol😊
Mega cool Knife I Love IT Pirmin From Switzerland 🇨🇭
Always a wonderful experience!🎉
KNAFS! MAKE MOVIES GREAT AGAIN

I later order a Para 3 and the default Spyderco clip is way to long for that knife so I ordered a short Lynch clip and its perfect. They make a solid product.
Yeah I bought one. I was wondering why I didn’t see anymore of them for sale! 😅Great knife BTW
Clip points are BEAUTIFUL 😍
Didn’t know fake acorns are a thing…now I want some and don’t know why 😂
The uses are endless. Once you EDC fake acorns, you never go back.
Wow, I was never really drawn to the Lander (huge banter fan tho! 😍) but with that clip point it looks so gorgeous!!
Hopefully I’ll pick one up once I’ve ticked off some of the others on my hit list. Gotta get that sexy textured aluminium crossbar lock WE Banter first!
English and French, also couteau means knife.
Hey guys! Lyle at REC. Very, VERY sorry that I grabbed the wrong knife for that video... I LOVE Knafs! Grabbed the Lander 3 clip point instead of the knife I was intending to make a video about... We love Knafs and I am very sorry for the mix up. Thanks for being super forgiving about it. - Lyle
Hey Knafs crew!!! I personally would love a Knafs flashlight and a decked out bandana and a possible collab with Wazoo or something
As a broke college student living on his own, the Black Friday Lander 1 deal was just enough for me to snatch one! Super pumped!
Great episode today, but disappointed in y’all’s lack of faith in Bigfoot!! People will say I’m crazy, but I got first and second hand encounters… the woods are a beautiful and wild place. Love the outdoors and those noises 😂

I know what I seen wasn't a gorilla and I know this wasn't some human in a costume or something like that.
I like the looks of the slope of the clip point on the 3 over the 2.
Loving the scale swapped yonder
We need that moon crew pledge on a shirt
WIUG. I speak Danish Norwegian English and German. and my Lander 2 Tanto with a free burrito is on its way yeah. keep up the excellent work guys.
Fantastic! So much work to speak so many.
I would love A Knafs slip-joint, being a UK person a UK legal Knafs would be amazing!!
You can make almost any axis lock into a slip joint suuuuper easily 👍
@@CDXRK🤔
Shoutout to Patrick!!! 🍻
Amazing video!!!
Patrick for president! 🇺🇸
I just bought that exact Lander 1 with my Lander 2 Tanto on Wednesday 😭
I have the Lander 2 clip point. The paper mi carta is cool but a bit too slippery for my tastes. I prefer a bit of texture on scales.
I heard leak, and i got excited for the knafs slip joint! Nope 😢. Still waiting in Milwaukee.
Thanks for sharing my hooks merch 😁

The clip point looks best on the Lander 3, it has old school vibes... Any Knafs dealers in South Africa?
I,ve seen the Lander 3 fixblade with clip point already 😆😆
vintage photos of the Apollo moonwalkers when they are dirty, covered in dust, happens to look like this knife
the Lander 3 clip point is my fav EDC now, gotta get one asap. any idea when this will be available in europe -> italy? thanks
Make a 3.5-4" blade version of your Landers
Guillaume,french of William pronounced Gee-ohm
Will there ever be a liner or frame lock version of the lander3?
Please Please Please sell the charcoal scales!
you should let kizer do their magic on a sheepsfoot lander 1 , 2, and 3 🔥🔥🔥🔥🚒🚒🔥🔥❤🔥
We are a pretty big deal in the Moon Crew just sayin and Patrick is a Legend!
Any chance for a restock of the lander 2 clip point?
Wish Lander 3 didn't have scales, only liners (or vice versa), so its handle would be slimmer.
Damnit guys, i told myself i was done spending money on Black Friday deals. Just spent another $150 on you guys lol
Damn. Missed the sale :(
Just grabbed a jade G10 Lander 1 yeehaw!
So, just wondering is there’s an Austin knife in the works?
Have you all considered offering earthlingEDC’s 3d printed pocket racks?
Is the lander 2 clip point coming back????
Yall need a salesman like microtech has. That guy instills confidence in the product. Ray helms

Cool knife but I'd opt for a kizer of the same price range.
Can we get the pocket clip in that gold color!!??
Congrats lander 2 clippoint sold out most places like REC and BladeHQ
Don’t hate the salesmen content! You two are salesmen nothing wrong with that!
Beautiful winkler
So SASQUATCH! Where can we find the models to print. These are really cool, might inspire me to do a set of Lander scales featuring bigfoot. Ironic since both are made up, that is the moon landing and Sasquatch,

It's the same picture.
Bigfoot is Kane!!
Winchester Leatherman!
Ok about the sawsqwatch question then how'd explain all of the an ancient drawings on cave walls by different cultures all over the world of a similar looking creature
Wharncliffe Lander 2 anytime soon?
I put Lynch NW clips on all of my knives that I can.
