The fuller is absolutely by design and serves a purpose. It was designed so that you can blow compressed air in the bearings. I read it somewhere on the description by Shirogorov.
Good to know. Thanks!
I don’t quite see how that would work! It doesn’t provide any more path to the bearings than no path at all. Usually there’s a tiny gap between the bearings and the handle or blade that you can get enough compressed air through to blow them out.
You are right, Arius, Specter and Quantum are the top 3 production action!
What about the legendary norseman
Herman Slim?
You might say this in the review, but I can’t wait because it’s the first thing I saw on the knife. I love how the lines on the knife match up. The line on the blade matches up with the mini fuller (idk what to call it) . Even the bottom line on the handle matches the angle of the sharpening Choil....just wow!
Late to this review, but glad to hear the "perfect" feeling. I have one coming now! Thanks!
Same here, I went for the Bronze
@@unreviewed I didn’t realize you had the bronze too!
I’ve watched this like 5 times. That is absolutely, 100%, unequivocally the most beautiful and perfect knife I have ever seen. Ever. Like nothing else is close, and the few that can come close are mostly Shiros too. But yeah, this knife right here, this is it for me man. 👍🤩
Like you, I watched this video several times. MC’s gushing enthusiasm about a knife is very convincing. So, I found one in like new condition on the secondary market and pulled the trigger. Now it’s my turn to gush. Zero regrets. It’s more amazing in hand! Grab if you can find one.
@@tomwebster6747 Congrats man, you’ll have to live the Shiro dream for both of us. Even if my next door neighbor was selling one, it wouldn’t help me, because I couldn’t.. you know.. actually pay for it. Student loans.. 😔 “Money can’t buy happiness..” has been 100% mythbusted. Enjoy it bud! 👍
@@jdisdetermined It's simply called deferred gratification. I lived that way too for many years. I'm now at the other end of the life spectrum. Closer to retirement. Paid off my student loans about 10 years after graduating from college. One of the best days of my life. You'll own your Shiro one day!
One small, but cool, detail you missed. If you look at the back spacer you will see a slight space between both frames of the handle. They milled it to appear to have a 'floating' backspacer but if you take it down contact of the spacer is made within the blade. Very cool! love mine!
Nothing in my collection beats out my shiros for pocket time.
perfect action for me!⚔️
Great video MC
The Quantum comes up often as a recommendation in the Shiro group im in. I do own 3 Shiros although older versions and am curious to experience a newer rendition of a Shiro. While i haven’t handled a Quantum it appears to be excellent and highly recommended by Shiro enthusiasts which is no surprise. Not sure about the fuller design que but maybe i just need to handle one and see. Great review!
Wow I just worked out a trade for a Quantum this morning and can’t wait to actually have it in hand! Great review as always!! Who doesn’t love a good Shiro?!!
Hitler
Just ordered one off Recon1 yesterday. A bunch left if anyone wants. I can't wait to get mine! On the way! I've never handled a shirogorov or anything on this level. PUMPED
Just ordered one of Recon1 this morning ;] on the way as well!!
Such a nice knife!! 4 months later, and I still fidget the heck out of her daily
This knife has ruined most others for me
Thanks MC...i recently got a hation zero. Let me tell y'all its ALL THAT..perfect detent , finishes . If you're on the fence do it
I felt like mine had to break in, but when it did...oooooh yeah.
I have 4 Shiro's and they are incredible. That being said, Andre Thorburn's knives are in a class of their own. If you ever feel like getting your mind blown, try a Thorburn out. Love it, and keep up the great work!
I could be wrong but I do notice that his hardware like the pivot screw and everything is shaped the exact same way he does his O’s on the serial numbers on the certification card
This came up in my "suggested for you" ... Me: I would freaking hope so!
My shirogorov f3ns is hard to explain but when it's in your hands you just understand
Yeah, there's a tool they sell for a whopping $200. Be careful with a flathead or it puts divots in the screws. Also something I didn't realize was the loose bearings. I took it apart to clean (probably sat in the KC warehouse too long and had old, thick oil) and ended up with bearings all over. Only lost one, haha. Still super smooth, though.
Picked one of these up for $700 on eBay. Such an amazingly beautiful knife. The action is sooooooo good. If you have the chance to pick one of these up do not hesitate.
Did so for a little more $$$ and still no regrets. Fantastic knife. MC is spot on!
Just my opinion ok...You have a lot of content and I can honestly say say I've watched at least 95%, you have great vids buddy, but man this is your best video yet ❗ I was saving it for an easy day without distractions because I really liked this Shiro. This is now my next grail❗ Don't know if I'll ever get it, but it's just .... (Speechless) and it doesn't matter if I do get it or not, it exists. And I congratulate you because you elevated your level to that of the blade. Glad to witness your process and this silver unicorn.😁👍👏👏👏👏
Finally got to sit down with my cosmic brownie in one hand and my shiro in the other to watch the review for real. I think you 100% nailed it and were able to verbalize the emotions and irrationalities like "it's the best" perfectly. You definitely did it justice. 10/10 would recommend sending MC your insane knife purchases to help justify them in your head.
😁👍🙌
“Bonka” or “bonochka” is a russian-knife-slang word for “bladestopper”.
I would give anything to be in this kind of market. That thing is truly badass. Thanks for the view at it and your thoughts MC!
Just got a f3 shirogorov ,not all shirogorov knives are created equal, take my advice, stay above the thousand dollar range in a shirogorov, the f3 would definitely be a decent user, if you are willing to pay 700 for a work knife.
I own a Shirogorov Neon Zero, and it is Tony the Tiger Ggrrrreat! It really is an astounding piece of work, action only paralleled by a Holt Specter or Grimsmo. My only complaint was the pocket clip was so tight I had to do some work to make it work.
My clip just broke in over time, but they certainly are tight. I could barely get it on my basketball shorts at first.
Have no problems with the quantum clip, works great.
Just got my first shirogorov quantum
@Metal Complex you should try the gen2. Next level!! Less weight, thinner blade stock, more milling in the scales to a custom devision level......a master piece.
I have a hatiOn and I will say you absolutely need to hold the blade before you purchase it I held 4 of the same model they all felt different because of of the work is hand done I feel every action feels slightly different in its own ways some harder then others
I prefer a penny to adjust the pivot to an ill-fitting screwdriver. It is less likely to mar the pivot screw slot.
I always thought that the innards, i.e. the steel for the liner and frame of a knife should be as good as the blade steel, albeit in different ways. The frame steel should, above all, be stainless! Few things are worse than a fine knife with excellent materials throughout, except, nobody thought about the liner, which is rusty. What are we supposed to do about THAT?
Stunning! Amazing hand ground blade. Thanks MC for the great review👏👏👍👍😍😍
Thanks for the wonderful reviews!! You do great work sir one question can you deploy with the fuller?
One of my Grail knives. For a blade that size, I've never seen anythig as smooth! Does Shirogorov make a thumb-stud knife. I'm a flicker, not a flipper. LOL The detail is perfect! Even the back of the pocket clip is milled to flow with the rest of the pattern.
I read somewhere, that the Russian Spetnaz (sp?) are issued this knife. Do you know if that's true?
I hiiiiighly doubt these are issued to Spetsnaz commandos. I’d wager they get a bayo for their AKM-pattern rifles and that’s it. If they bother issuing a folding knife I doubt it’s a midtech flipper running on bearings...
first i find out belle put things in her triangle, then MC reviews a shiro... how could this night get any better?
Do you go into a rage if you carry and lose this knife? I go nuts if I misplace my Benchmade 940.
I've never misplaced any of my more expensive knives. I probably would though
Hi. Metal Complex. Can i know what is the finish on the handdle? Thank you.
Thanks for the video MC.
Great video! Just to recap...you like this knife?
2 days after getting my first hinderer (Eklipse Gen 3), it already has rust on it. Also, it’s slightly off centered, and I don’t have the $60 tool to fix it. Probably my worst purchase so far.
I've got a hinderer xm-18, and it's wonderful! I have the DLT fullered spear exclusive.
Been considering picking up another one: a no choil spanto. If I can find another ti-scale for sale, I may do it
I made my old tool by filing a slot in a penny. Works for the lockside pivot just fine
Cost me $.01
oOhh god. 🤑🤢
Now I must get one. =) 🖤🔪🔪
I think gen 6 Hinderer just as good and half the price!!!!! Any Hinderer gen 6 IMO. Made in the USA!!!
hinderer is cool but in a different category this is much more like the arius
Makes love to the knife
They're in stock on recon1. Why did you show me this? Lol, dammit. I want one.
You can't flick that blade open?? It looks like you can flick it
i also wanted to tell you not to trip on the folks that USEtheir knives-i have everything from medfor shirogorov chris reeve hinderer and all but tree knives are users and the most are safe queens and i will and am getting even more safe queens-my edc for the last 6 years has beena medford genisis tanto in d2 and it gets sharp as shit so dont stress on the people that USE all their stuff so you do you
I'd love to get this, but i live in canada and live in fear of having this kind of knife confiscated at the border.
That's one of the reasons I'm getting a norseman
@@M13asan amen to that. Wouldn't mind a rask myself.
Stunning ......😲
Love the shiro. Great review, but please, I'm begging you to stop saying the word "right".
Cant help it. Part of my natural dialogue. Its gonna keep happening.
