Kizer really is a great company for people like me who can't afford a 300 dollars knife. What you get for what you pay is pretty great. Them and vosteed are my favorite nice but low budget knives.
I finally got a para 2 and it hurt how expensive it was
I agree with you! Especially Vosteed!
Yes!! Very true
Tanto's are my favorite blade shape. Kizer has been killing it! Very cool knife and love the name.
Yeah this definitely going to be my first button lock knife
Been eyeing this one. Hope y’all have a great rest of the week!
Seems like a good buy; I’ve had my eye on Kizer for some time and this video sold me with the metal on metal music when flipping it open! Love that sound. The blade looks great and the price seems fair! Thanks for another great review
I got mine about 2 weeks ago, and it's great!! This is my first micarta scaled knife and I'm on the fence about the feel lol if this knife comes in other scales in the future I'd for sure get another one. Or if someone made scales I'd consider it. My favorite feature of the blade is the line from the tip of the blade to the butt of the handle. That top curvature 🤌🏽
Love mine. Got it when it first hit Amazon and Kizers site. Little button stick but a quick cleaning fixed that. Great usual DD handle, which I love. Cheers!
Good morning complex. I can’t speak for everyone but your insight in 154cm and materials and why you like them compared to other materials is one reason why I watch. Great folder. Just my thoughts.
love that sound!
Just ordered one! I needed a Tanto! Great video! Thanks!
!
Mad Tanto XL please. 4 to 4.5" blade, non-deep carry, tip down clip. Everything else the same.
Oh, real nice. Penny on penny violence is not a laughing matter, sir!
Love my kizer button lock. I've been browsing damned designs for a while, and now it's going to he even harder to hold out!
Good working handle looks comfortable.
Wow, I usually do not like tantos, but that particular blade shape/profile/silhouette is really nice.
Kizer button locks are fantastic once you work out the initial stick. My XL Begleiter is an absolute dream now. Love the design and sounds of this one. That finger choil looks perfect. Definitely picking this one up. Kizer is killing it. Thanks
@@druidic4353 absolutely!
Yup, my Begleiter2 is still holding on to that stick.
@@GatorAaron it’ll work out eventually. My pivot started coming loose initially so I used loctite to set it properly which seemed to help.
Agree 💯 on Begleiter. Favorite Action Knife
prettty sure i need this. i missed out on DDs Fernir folder. i did get the fixed though.
Just not a tan-toe guy but I love button locks and micarta. Hope they do a drop point-ish one.
Those Ontario rats get really smooth after a bit 👍, great user . I like the hidden liners on this and the sokoke 👍. It’s one of things that attracts me to a knife lately . I did a para 3 in cF with backspacer and plug and clip and it’s super nice . The manix 2 turned out solid and a bit heavy with titanium so thinking of switching to skinny scales .
i like the micarta backspacer, i feel like steel is overkill for the strength that is required of this part. but i think they should have cut it so the pattern is facing out like the rest of the handle
Got my Mad Tanto in black a few weeks ago, and havent set it down since. The action is getting even more smooth and free with use.
My only gripe is that they dont have it in G10. Fingers crossed 🤞 that the aftermarket support is there.
I have a couple of Damned Designs and I like them pretty well. That one looks pretty nice. I think I would like it to be a drop point even more.
Yeah, I'm hoping they make a drop point
I will own one. Thanks MC.
I’m bummed I missed out on this, the only one in stock us the black blade. I want the stonewashed blade 😭 hopefully they come out with a ti version
i might buy this one
154cm is *not* tougher than M390, according to Larrin Thomas. But M390 does have better edge retention and corrosion resistance. I know some people are bored with it, but M390 is an objectively better steel than 154cm. But I really do like the Mad Tanto. 154cm is a great steel for the price point. Blade geometry trumps marginally better steel.
😂 The Scrooge McDuck penny pile comparison is awesome!
Yes XM-18
Don't really like the idea of tantos because it seems like they would be tough to sharpen. This looks good, and I might grab one if it were in CPM154 instead of 154CM. Even 14C28N.
Love me a tanto
YES!!!!
I think, that that pocket clip was just optimized to sit on top of scales, not nested. That's why that difference isn't so huge.
On scales of 1-10, Larin Thomas rates 154CM as 3.5 for toughness, 4.5 for edge retention, and 7 for corrosion resistance. CPM154 as 5, 4.5, and 7. Really wish Kizer would charge a buck or two more and move to using more CPM154, or make a premium one of these in 3V or 4V. And I apologize in advance because I know you hate comments like this, but I'm sort of hoping someone from Kizer will see it.
Na actually I kind of agree with this
@@metal_complex how awful (or great) must it have been when D2 was a "super steel". Haha.
I love the look of this knife and can't find it anywhere. Its out of stock everywhere.
M390 winner winner winner
I really like the look of the knife. I do hope they come out with other color variations, I don't like the green micarta scales but do like the blade. The other version I like the scale color but not the black blade, picky I know lmao (I only see 2 versions at the moment, this one and a black blade/black micarta scale version). Hopefully they come out with more variations, I'd love one with Ti scales
The looks but mainly the sound is calling my name I'm going to have to start camping out in blade Hq's site till they re-drop and I 100% agree Kizer has a really great stonewash and normally their heat treat is excellent as well
"M390...just costs more to create the cake mix" - brilliant
Dude I gotta try black rifle coffee espresso with cream!
I love a good choke up choil with adequate jimpimg
Knife looks great, sux I can’t find the stonewashed version available anywhere. Not really feeling the dlc version.
Definitely should have put jimping on the flipper.
Oui loik thit knoif. Reminds me of a Damned Designs knife.
Have you heard if he is doing any other collaborations with Kizer?
Thanks for your input I like caffeine too mostly in the form of coffee- monster tastes good too that being said, I am perplexed that you don’t mention the intended use for the said folding knife because isn’t that the buyers intent( just a thought) was a pocket knife champion since a little kid. Thanks for your effort. 0h intended use refers to blade shape and sizeP.S. Purchased a salami a.k.a. Bellamy slicer on your recommendation
It’s a knife. The intended use is cutting things.
Its a tanto, you do every day cutting tasks with it. I feel like asking for the intended use of a knife is like asking what the intended use of a fork is
I wish this came in a drop point blade
The action sounds like a Rod Olsen Galaxy button lock
"Monster", sponsor this man.
:) best content on yt
Hola me gustan algunas de tus navajas y soy un chico interesado en este tema ¿Me podrías decir donde compras estas navajas si no es mucha molestia? Gracias
This knife needs a sister, drop point with a fuller! Sign me up!
When you smack the blade against wood block that gives me anxiety haha. One day a knife will fail and the blade will swing into your hand 😬
Regarding the name of the knife printed on the blade...l have a relatively large collection going back about 35 years and l have knives for which l have forgotten the names and are not currently carried in any catalogue. I have tried several times to find the original names without luck and this makes it difficult to reference these knives in knife circles.
So l do see a reason for naming knives on the blade.
Mine has major lock stick. 😕
I wish you'd talked about detent. Skipped that part, and it's the biggest issue for me.
I’m on my second Mad Tanto. Why? My first one had a MAJOR pocket clip failure and lost it. Clip on this is super tight, but then it loosened up to a cartoonish level.
Silver dollars in a pile! Sweet
Has anyone tried one of kizers ti clips on this ?
What's the monster flavor MC? I do the white myself
In order: Orange>Ultra Fiesta>Ultra Rosa>The green one>The white one>The purple one>The Gold One>The rest 😊
Kizer has had a great couple of years.
How do I join as a Member to your channel?
Nevermind, figured it out
Pivot lash? My Ganzos don't have pivot lash.
Definitely not flying under the radar… sold out multiple times already… still trying to get one.
What I meant was that no one was talking about it. Selling out can be as simple as there not being many to begin with. Not necessarily a key indicator of anything
@@metal_complex Got it… yeah, there hasn’t been much talking about them. Definitely looking forward to getting my hands on one, and thanks for the great review!
This looks a lot like the Tools For Gents “Rascal” model.
I'm a lefty, but strangely, I flip a knife right handed.
Almost gone
Kizer: Can I copy your homework?
Reate Rascal: Sure just change it a bit so the teacher doesn't notice.
Kizer: Mad Tanto Folding Knife.
Ridiculous. They have in common only use of American tanto blade, bright micarta and country of production is the same.
Looks like they recessed a clip that's more intended for sitting on top the scale. Oh screw it....use what we got. 😂
The handle looks like the Wendigo.
Folding button not good. You may accidentally press and cut fingers
Hey first view
Oh... it's obvious lol 😂😂😂
No lefty love is just lazy $
Why do knife makers use that God-awful looking burlap micarta? Pretty much any other micarta finish looks better, burlap looks like it's unfinished.
