Thanks for watching! My Patreon - www.patreon.com/metalcomplex
I got this about a week ago don't know what the hell I'm going to do with it but it is a beast and I love it 😂
I have no earthly reason to own this but I’m probably going to own this. It’s illegal to own where I’m at unless I’m ‘hunting’. I guess I am a hunter now 🤷♂️
@@nachoisme LOL I used to do the same thing but with a sidearm when I was going fishing or whatever you didn't have to have a carry permit as long as you were hunting so I say I was hunting and fishing simultaneously 😅
Just use it as a knife. It cuts pretty well.
@@nachoisme what commie state do you live in?
I edc it everyday in Cali lol
Coming here to watch this review because these 4 max's are now regularly $50. An easy trigger pull at that price, based on your rec!
For the price I just couldn't resist picking one of these up. I brushed the flats on mine for a two-tone look (and to get rid of the billboard branding) and then stonewashed the whole blade and hardware to knock down the shine. Turned out pretty cool. I'm really glad DLT released these in numbers to supply the demand so that these knives can get out in the wild and be used as intended, rather than flipped on the bay for prices their not worth.
My buddy, who I work with, carries a 4 Max Scout in his right front pocket and a SR1 Lite tanto in his carpenter pocket all day everyday. His belt must be screaming. Gotta love it.
I purchased two original USA made 4 Max knives when they were finally released. I eventually sold both as I couldn't justify carrying such a beautiful & expensive piece of engineering. This New economy variant is right on point for my needs!!
Thanks for turning us on to this one , I’m really looking toward the delivery in a few days. Another awesome DLT exclusive
I know this is an old vid, but seriously Cold Steel can release a "tactical brick" and that thing would be razor sharp.
Hands down my favorite EDC knife. I currently own 4 different variations of this knife. Even after I gave one to my brother.
I installed a Snaggletooth knife opener on mine and bent the pocket clip to loosen the grip a bit. It’s now instant deploy out the pocket and I absolutely love it.
Andrew Demko knows what he is doing. He does great things with heavy duty knives. I know almost everyone here knows that but I love how he can take what is for all terms a survival knife and turn it into a folder.
I just ordered this exact knife for a replacement for my very well loved Recon 1 Tanto. I can't wait to get my hands on this beast and start carrying it for work and everything else!!!!
I absolutely love this knife, I hope you’re enjoying yours.
I bought an original Cold Steel 4Max Scout. I later gave it to my wife's cousin. But when I decided to limit the amount of knives for myself, I bought another one. It is crazy to have and hold this beast of a folder! But I had to have one again, so I bought it again. I also own a SR1 Lite Tanto, so I am use to having bricks in my pocket. But I like these bricks because when stuff happens, these bad boys are ready to rock and ruin! I like the color scheme of this knife, but I would prefer the black blade with the black handle (showpiece) and the satin blade with the green handle (workhorse). But that is just me.
That is a monster. personally, the .75 AR which I love is very close to my limit. Congrats on 50K and keep growing :)
Very cool knife, can't wait to get my hands on one. Definately a great outdoors knife. It will be subject to great abuse by my hand. Keep making sharp things fun and enjoyable.
I got the xl voyager drop point and it scratches that itch
Ordered one 2 days ago from DLT. This is mid size cold steel knife, but the cross section, IS much more robust than ANY other they make.
Funny, I was just thinking I might have to get this knife as I opened RUclips, and this was this first video that came up. It must be a sign!
Ok buddy it couldn’t have been
Colossal Cutter 😆
It had to be
*MegaPounder*
Megapounder sounds like it should be a different kind of video.
@@nathannettik685 yup
Mmmm mmm mm, 💕 that's my kind of knife. So glad that they brought down the price with changing materials. And that handle is sick
Mine is perfectly centered without being mushy. This is my fourth 4Max (original USA 4Max, 4Max Scout, 4Max Elite and this one) and don't ask me what I'm going to do with them. Thanks for the review.
I honestly bought one of these after hearing you describe it as a megapounder in your unboxing
To me this is an apocalypse folder which is why I love it
I am and have been a long time supporter of CS. The company continues to have an excellent selection of knives for any budget. I have always been a big knife guy and this is a prime example of more is better. This knife definitely fits in the survival category. I would trust my life on this locking mechanism. If you want something discreet then get an opinel no.8.
Hi MC, try backing the pocket clip screew out and then reseat it and see if it sets into the backspacer to eliminate that gap.
I've used the JB weld trick to add some slip under the clip to prevent pant blow out. Gonna do the same with this guy.
I’m here because the thumbnail said Megapounder...
Clownishly is a word. You're good. Thought you were pulling a Shabazz? BIG knife. I've got the other version.
Thank for sharing. I just orderd one earlier tonight, was just wondering is it pretty sharp out of the box
The largest folder I have is a Recon 1 with s35v steel and I only bought it for hiking and camping and in case a Mountain Lion jumps on my back and bites my neck which actually happened to a woman where I go hiking-she didn’t make it. They built a turnout on the trail with a memorial bench and plaque in her honor, It’s near the town of Cool in NorCal. I know, I know, a Recon 1 probably wouldn’t help in that situation, but it gives me moral support anyway.
my main edc rotation is either my 4max scout on the stonewashed finish and black handles and my sr1 lite in clip point and i love them
Watching this on my 4 Max Scout and couldn't be more satisfied with it.
FYI these are $83 at Knifeworks when they are in stock 👍.
The 4-Max Scout is certainly one of Cold Steel's best knives. Watch Jimislash's video of him chopping into wooden pallets & it's still shaving sharp at the end with no play in the lock. Probably way overkill for most tasks but it's nice to know what it is capable of.
Great review. Thanks, what do mean "the Benchmade griptilion in this case the Ritter Hogue." Are they the same knife?
I just ordered this and I'm sure I won't be disappointed. 4-Max Elite normally costs around 500 euros here in Finland, so the decision between Scout (130 euros) and Elite was easy.
An ounce and inch! :D Awesome knife and review MC!
This video is a "That's what she said" dream!! lmao 😂🤣😆
It DOES fill the hand...
I love cold steel torture test vids , that thing is a tank ! I really like the sr1 with a tanto blade , I can’t get on board with the 4max the design might be functional but it needs some help in the looks department.
JOEX is the man for torture tests! I love em too.
If I ever needed to skin a pterodactyl, I know what to get👍
Would this be one of the top 10 lou ferigno thunder dragon knives?
Which would you prefer? This one or the AD10
"just slip those in there"
Maybe not the best word choice for something that shape ;)
i saw a cold steel ad15 in green at around 145 on amazon the other day which is awsome
Crazy the problems with that one. I have a regular 4max scout and 2 of the dlt renditions and none of them have those issues. I work maintenance and grounds and use either the regular or Dlt everyday. Works for chopping limbs that get in the way as well. Lol
Got my dlt exclusive 4max scout last week! Yeah yeah! I got it with my ad-15. You're absolutely right about the price of the ad15 going up to much, last year it was right around the price that the lite is now.. stupid
I love this knife!
I have read somewhere that this version has a thinner blade than the standard one. Is that true?
Beautiful piece of steel
4Max means it can hold a maximum of 4 Lynn Thompsons on weight hang test
All Demko/Cold Steel knives use a T10 pivot and T6 screws. Just wipe off the blade. If you have lots of oils in your hands use edci or some oil to wipe down the blade with and it's good as new. Only your knife with that coating looks like that, everyone else wipes it off just fine.
After getting this knife, it’s hard to take other pocket knives seriously. They start looking like toys.
Trust me you don't want this knife being super deep carry, it's hard enough to get out of your pocket as it is haha. That pocket clip is like a freaking clamp, it trashed my jean pockets within 1 day.
I have this knife, it's a Sweet Beast!
Truly a Megapounder!!
My son shared this video with me.
I wish they smoothed down the texture under the clip. Some day I’ll sand my down and maybe carry it but for now it sits on the shelf.
I sanded mine about an inch whide where the bend of the clip rests and now I edc it everyday
Knife is nice,but pocket clip horrible. Where I can buy custom clip for this knife? Any ideas, please.
Cold Steel: “Our knives are so tough they grow their own pair.”
I’ve never seen a shiny DLC like that. Is that because it’s satin underneath?
is anyone else having the problem with the SR-1 Lite that the blade has lots of play? in order to get rid of that I have to tighten the pivot screw so much that the blade doesn't move anymore at all. bummer.
Watching this a year later after I just paid $68 brand new for mine. Absolute beast of a knife.
Same on amazon. Nice knife
The favorite scenario of every 4 Max Scout owner....
At a small birthday party and someone pulls out a Case folder to cut some zip ties off of a child’s new toy
Immediately whips out 4 Max Scout followed by:
*insert Crocodile Dundee accent*
“That’s not a knife, THIS is a knife” 😂
I've actually done this basic scenario twice, once with a Spyderco K2 and just the other day with a Maxace Mammoth, both times while at work.
Neither person got the reference, and both likely thought I was an even bigger maniac than they already know I am.
@@CNYKnifeNerd 😂 they need to up their pop culture game
Not cold steel: “whoops!.. we made it too big!”
My 4 Max has a slight side to side blade play... It's not a problem, just unexpected.
Lmfao... gdi... Now I cannot unsee that clip. Whiiiiich now you just said that lol, I guess I'll accept your apology haha.
So far, all of mine have come blade centered
$75 now
Ok I wasn't ready when you put the sR1 lite on the sreen 😂😂😂 that not a pocket knife
More like a mix between a sword and a hammer
Like a swammer or a hammord 😅
10 Oz. Pffff. My ZT 0308 is 7 Oz and my Steel Will Bruiser 500 is 9.13 Oz. 10 Oz? No problem man.
Thanks for the video my Bladed Brother 👍 ⚔️ ✝️ 🇺🇲
I gotta get 1.
Have you ever handled the cold steel large Luzon folder? I have one and it’s a monster! Pretty ridiculous actually
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Yo MC, I bought it for 80 bucks at knifeworks. I dont need it as I have hinderers , crks etc. But shit ....80 bucks at knifeworks!!!
I held one....definitely not for me but still interesting.
For fun reasons, definitely. For actual use, at that size just get a fixed blade.
Unless you need it to fold
@@metal_complex touché!
My AD10 is enough. Thanks
Oof that clip tho
It’s not DLC on the blade but PVC
Stitches... Harrumph... I just use super glue 😂
What knife did I just buy? Maybe I should have watched this video first. I thought my Civivi Mastodon was big..... lmao
Haha. You said slip one in there. Lol
God Dang it's 10 inches!!! LOL that's what she said!
Thicc boi
I dont like the blade to handle ratio. You should compare it to the sheepdog XL
You could grind the tip of the clip off. 😆 🤣 😂
Just got one for $55
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👌👌👌cool
Technically it's an ounce per inch.....
Only True Cold Steel citizens should make videos about Cold Steel knives.
They are not heavy in pocket. They are not overbuilt.
They are not hard to carry.
THEY WERE MADE FOR SPECIFIC MEN.
If I was going to carry that around I would rather just carry a fixed blade
As far as weight, if you carry a 6 inch iPhone with a battery pack it weighs about the same. I don’t notice the weight when it’s clipped in my cargo shorts, because I’ve carried an iPhone with battery pack for years.
This knife is a perfect carry for riding, you don’t need to take off your gloves to operate it. Or to clip into a hiking pack or bug out bag. My two cents.
It is there like the ball's on an Infidel's blade! 😂😂😂
pay more for stitches than the knife? am I too European to understand that?!
It is going to cost less than the whole pig carcasses you are going to need. Heyahh!
I can reverse flick it and your hands are bigger than mine
Its so fucking expensive man! Why poor people cannot buy one like this
LMAO about the pocket clip shape. Knife designers are a bunch of 12 year old boys LOL!
*MEGAPOUNDER* 😂
First
It's your knife put finger prints on it and don't wipe them off, or do wipe them off. I don't care it's yours. Don't worry about the nags out there. Something like that is made to be used, so use it. Hell that thing looks like it's made to be abused and giggle about it.
This is not a knife for guys in skinny jeans!
I wish it had a more pointy end and the bottom of handle made from steel
