20 years from now that phone book you sliced up will be worth hundreds 😂
I'll cry myself to sleep, every night.
And also.....I have NO IDEA why I feel this way...... but I just had the most OVERWHELMING urge to want to spend Christmas morning at your house with you guys cooking up a large breakfast for everyone with fresh ground coffee and homemade pancakes with bacon and sausage and biscuits.....opening up all the presents with a nice warm fire going in the background....... lol I know I'm crazy.... but I get that cozy warm feeling when I watch your channel.... you know all wrapped up on the couch with a warm fleece blanket and over sized fluffy slippers for all!!!!! Lol
I'm in!!!
🤣🤣
You convinced me , been thinking about this knife and got one on the way ! 🤗
@@TristateEDC you might want to get a PO Box.... 🤣
I put aluminum scales on mine, (from original goat) and now it makes a “ping” when it closes 👍
Love my demkos... Glad you finally see the light kole
I've had mine for a long time. It's definitely a favorite of mine. I'm hoping to swap scales this coming year. Great video 👍
Thank you good sir! Love the content!
I love this knife I just ordered my 4th one. The first thing I do is take the grivory scales off and slap on g10 flytanium scales. I also have the textured titanium version in 3V.
Making the trip to SMKW soon. Might have to pick one of these up
I love my AD20.5, one of my faves in my collection despite it being AUS10-A and the baby puke green BHQ exclusive. Just love how obnoxiously loud the Shark Lock is.
Yeah man mine 20.5 gets a lot of pocket time! I put the deep pocket clip on it. Makes a big difference. Great vid hope all is well!
that locking mechanism is really great !!
Oh how I've missed that sweet phone book slicing sound
Ordered an Ad20.5 from knife center. They have the 3v version on sale for $165 so I had to pull the trigger. I'm chomping at the bit for mine to show up.
I like the Demko AD20.5 and I am glad like they are coming down in price. A set of O.G. scales is a huge upgrade, and really makes it feel like a premium knife. Sweet hat too man!
Now I need it. I hated this knife at first, but it has brown on me
The box is worth more than the materials the knife is made of. 🤭
Sick unboxing bro. I love Bladeops! They're awesome.
Awesome unboxing, interesting haul of knives. The 20.5 If I was to go for one it would probably be the titanium and 3v version at this point as it's definatly a better knife overall at its price point. Still a solid work knife either way, definatly a bit of a premium for the name though. Thanks for the look see Kole and keep making sharp things fun and enjoyable.
Sweet!
That's a box of heaven 😂 I love my ad20.5 but after I put the OG 🐐's on. I'm excited to hear your thoughts on some knives you wouldn't normally review
It’s definitely a unique one, and I want it
Chuck sold me my first 20.5. Such fidget. Much acoustic. Ooooweeee!
Nice very nice!
Damn you for putting this out. I want to get on the hype train but was backing off. Not sure if the sales right now are worth it or not to pass up.
Empty doodad holes... ILLEGAL!
🚨🚨
do you work in video production? quality is always super crisp.
great videos for real. Also good on you for making the distinction between Taiwan & China
i didn't fall in love with the Titanium version of the 20.5, but i have small burger king hands.
The lock is definitely fidgety, i didn't care for the super different detent behavior, i couldn't reverse flck it reliably without adding a lot of wrist. Your box is also way fancier, had i gotten the grivery in sharkfoot i may have liked it more, but the last nail in the coffin was the tips bevel being wildly uneven.
"small burger king hands" Phahahah
And I am a Hillbilly, educated to be an Engineer turned Insurance Agent, who grew up with a camera in his hands... IF that answers your question lol
@@TristateEDC i'd say it answers more questions that I'd yet to ask. Makes a lot more sense then, Mechanical? I meet a lot of engineers in my day Job of begrudgingly running a smokeshop. We're right down the road from Locked, Mitsubishi power systems, and JBT so I'm always being nosey; Meet a lot of knife pals that way too. Spot someones milled TI or better yet Zircati pocket clip and i know they're a capable spender.
Nobody ever gets the burger king comment so kudos to you good sir.
That’s not a Redoubt in that Benchmade box is it??? 🤔. Can’t wait to see that review
No its an adamas
I spent a lot of money buying knives in the last 10-15 days during the sales, the promotions amongst all the reviews. And I passed on the Demko AD 20.5, I still don't get the hype. I don't feel like I am missing out at all. For those that do love this knife, good on you. Different tastes is what makes this community lively. I type this as I set here fippin my new WE Knife Primoris, in 20CV, Carbon Fiber and Titanium, I paid just under two hundred for it and feel its a much better value than the Demko AD 20.5. Cheers you all.
Same here dude.
i had one for a week or two and the bevel was uneven. Titanium version looked nicer but it was way too heavy.
if they do a smaller version of it at some point i'd be all over it. but as it sits i just didn't care for the detent characteristics. posted a couple shorts with it.
I love it, but yeah in terms of value it’s not great but I love it enough that I don’t care, I just spent a lot of money to build my perfect version of it and I have no regrets! 😂 different strokes for different folks right?
@@andyhayward1261 Yes, of course. We all have free will. My beef is not with the design. I have handled it, its a very smooth knife, great design. But I just can not get myself to spend money on a knife with materials of a low quality and then go spend more money in an effort to make it valuable to me. To each his own indeed. I also do not condemn anyone that buys a clone from China, you can get one in D2 blade steel with excellent quality textured Titanium scales for forty bucks. I have handled one of them also. Its a world wide free market.
@@TopDog8762 yeah I actually got one of the clones to see what it was like and the fit and finish was incredible for the price but the lockbar was thinner than on the real thing so it rattled around and the spring they were using in it was shorter than in the real one so the detent/action was nowhere near as good. Originally I was hoping to take the blue ano textured ti scales from the clone and put it on the authentic grivory version but that didn’t work out. I am going to buy some new springs to put in the clone to see how it improves the action
Never understood the hype behind this knife. Looks like a knife I would get bored of real quick.
Kole my dude. I watch all your vids. I attend your lives. I like. I comment. I’m a paid channel member. All that stuff. Now I need you to return one small favor, aside from glorious content you provide us all. I’ve posted only ONE RUclips vid, ever. It’s a sub 4 min unboxing of the 20.5, in the style of Hank Hill. I’d love for you to take a few mins out your days and watch it and have a laugh, if you think it’s funny. My mom does! I’m not out here tryna get subs for real, I did it for fun. Glad you finally got sharks foot in hand, and you like it. With the right scales, and maybe better steel for “those people” who are all uppity about it, I don’t mind the Aus10 for my needs, it’s a great all arounder EDC. Like you said… 😊 I have 4! As they are great for customization. And the clip point is great too and a tad longer Bye bye now!
with pleasure 🫡
Should’ve got the Demko in 3v
Meh
I like my 20.5 but don't love it. I appreciate the design for what it is.
Do you realize it’s not until 6:00 in that we even get a GLIMPSE of the knife? So much fluff
Yeah, I've cleaned up the fluff in the past year. Now it's like 1-2 minutes pre-amble. ;)
This is such a ugly piece of plastic 😂. Is the Boker the new MagnaCut Sherman or a automatic?
😆 maximizing every knife into 18,000 videos huh?????? Lol????
super excited or this one!
No Papa Kole... No more knives....I cannot afford any more!
