  • Since Cold Steel was purchased by GSM some of the former people have started new companies like Ric Valdez, who formed the new company Ocaso Knives. In this video I check out some of the first models the Strategy from master knife maker Mike Wallace, and the Solstice from Tri-ad and Espada XL designer Andrew Demko. While Cold Steel is known for their massive murder weapons Ocaso knives focused on every day carry and Gentleman's knives.
    Ocaso knives can be purchased directly from their website:

    Well, my goodness...Many moni, say me say many, many, many...I do believe that's the first ever Cold Steel-adjacent knife review to drop a Fugees line. Well done, AKB! It's permissible to substitute the phrase "Lynn's former sparring partner" for "Former Cold Steel guy". Just wanted to let you know

    For the hair I'd recommend looking into oils. I use a mix of rosemary and peppermint oil. I put it in a little spray bottle and spray it onto my scalp every morning and night. My hair is a lot fuller now after 3 months.

    • @nandayane

      One issue with the oils is that they can cause rashes if you have sensitive skin.

  • @jamesbarisitz4794
    @jamesbarisitz4794 Год назад +3

    14C28N would have been a better choice than K110 in my view. The Solstice is slicker and less bland, especially in the red Dark Matter cf. Thanks for the info on the new stuff.

    My guess on how a guy goes from carrying EspadaXL to carrying a smaller knife(which is every other blade on the planet) is that while seated, he dropped his EspadaXL between his legs&chopped off his manhood. It's the only thing that makes any sense. I could be wrong, but I don't think so.😂😂😂 killer blades&killer vid knife bro!!

      So someone new joined the other day… and for several years I’ve just been adding names- and rarely removing them. But I decided to just list the ones that are currently active and clean it up. For several years I usually average 95 ish… and this is that. I’ll probably let it coast again for a while but it’s been something I’ve been meaning to do for a while. I had already uploaded it when the new guy joined so I did a quick re-edit without re-recording. No big losses of patrons- just some housekeeping. Thanks for sticking with me dude!!!!

    Finally one of these new companies doesn't make their knives in China! Taiwanese production quality is consistently much better. Plus you get to support a free people rather than a slave state. Although I guess just like Demko it's only CS offshoots that are able to find connections in Taiwan...

    Okay, the following has nothing to do with this video, but I need to get it off my chest!
    I don't like half stops very much!
    Just recently I cut into the side of my index finger because I closed the knife with my thumb (small slipjoint Barlow) and it just WHACKED into the half stop and right into the side of my index finger!
    Very unsafe!
    But besides that the snappy go choppy is fun to play with, it's just not very save though.
    I rather have that regular slipjoint that just snaps into the handle and not into a half stop. Lucky me it was not a deep cut though.
