    With “budget” knives as good as those, it’s all about personal preference. Thanks for the nice video.

    I added the titanium pocket clip to my Altus after polishing the wood scales and it made a huge difference in ergos. The Pyrite is really nice and it would be a tough call to say which I like best. I carry both regularly and enjoy them both very much. The Pyrite is a great deal for the money.
    Got mine from WMK for 53 bucks in blue topo scales.

    That altus is a performer. At my corrugated box job, the altus replaced my para 3 In maxament as my go to/ regular carried hard use knife. It sheds cardboard effortlessly and one handed action it great.

  • @davec3651

    I have three pyrites and their detents vary slightly among them, but they're all what I'd consider on the lighter side... they can all be "thrown" open out of the handle using inertia. One of them actually came super stiff, kind of unusable, but that was something wrong with it where the button was grabbing and sticking on the hole in the scale. Once I fixed that, it was relatively light as well.
    That said, I find the action to somehow actially be super snappy with thumb and finger flicks. The action's so smooth and it easily pops and glides into lock. Like, the blade travels lightning fast into lock. I find the action to be exceptional. It's really weird how good it is, even without much stiffness in the detent.
    Well, I guess I'm just trying to say that I don't find the action sluggish the way you do. Maybe your detent is a super dud.

    • @jd4edc
      @jd4edc  Год назад +1

      I don’t think k it is sluggish action, it just so happens that out of the two examples that were in front of me the Altus had the better detent but that didn’t make the Pyrite bad, just not as snappy.
      I wouldn’t say I’m unhappy with the detent on that pyrite though. Just an observation when directly comparing the two 👍

    I think it was 44 bucks for the pie right but man I want the scales for that Altice dude. Anyways if the power rate is anything like the ultimate I’ll be OK with it. Kind of shying away against an expensive knives

    • @jd4edc
      @jd4edc  Год назад

      The budget realm has been kind of boring with a few gem exceptions. Kizer just drop different versions of existing knives, Civivi, Kubey and QSP have really been far and few in between. The drop bear, escort, penguin plus, and pie have been bright spots.

    The composition of Nitro V is not that impressive. I suspect the steel on the Pyrite is just as good, if not better.
