@@trini20874 I am not sure that is still the case. If my memory is right they had the sponsors label sprayed on it. That was the case for several episodes, but it disappeared. A sponsorship also only makes sense if you get to know the sponsor, right?
Hey thanks I didn’t notice that the first time around, I wonder if it would’ve gone through the table without going the through the soda, and the angle of impact surely didn’t help, still surprised it didn’t penetrate the table though, just bounced off.
@@imnotsmartbutimdumb I think that's probably just the jacket, which is why it's bouncing off of a plastic table. If you look frame by frame, in some frames it disappears, which I can only imagine its because it's flat and when it rotates with the edge towards the camera, you can't see it anymore.
Hey scott my dad passed away April 14,2023 and was a major gun nut and taught me all he could but didn’t really learn everything so I just want to say thank you for your vid’s I learn a lot and you entertain in the process so thanks so much for all you do your a freaking legend and bring me a lot of joy in these dark times
Hey Colton, Sorry for your loss brother. I know it's cliche, but remember the good times you had and it will bring a smile to your heart. If you have kids share all your knowledge and watch them grow. jb
This is my first time around in this channel, and I can only think about how this guy defines the feeling of "letting the intrusive thoughts win" and how awesome that seems to feel...
ive seen some gun channels in the past and its always neat to see unique firearms or "will it go through X" videos. but what i enjoy most is your personality and the energy you bring to each video. you can really see that you enjoy what you do. keep it up, and thank you for the effort you put in.
I'm pretty sure the chronograph was set for meters per second on that test. 167 meters per second comes out to about 550 feet per second. At under 200 feet per second, that bullet would never have had that kind of penetration in the gel.
That was my first thought as well. That's about what I'd expect from a very short-barreled .38. I'd estimate around 600 FPS out of a 2" barrel, so that totally tracks. 167 FPS is more what I'd expect from an arrow, not a bullet.
For the guy that had to "Stick a Thumb in it", his chill reaction after another gun catastrophically fails in his hands is interesting. Glad there were no injuries, great video.
Same thing that came to my mind when he said "never fired before" and also seeing the recoil and how that blade could recoil back and slice the user if not held properly. Sketchiest weapon I've ever seen.
I wonder how many that makes. Not the number of sketchy firearms. The number of unintentional catastrophic failures. I can think of 3. The big one, the 500 nitro pistol and this one.
As an accredited bladesmith with the ABS I saw that there was a dark spot at the break which an indication that the blade was cracked in the quench I also saw that the grain structure was similar in size to granular sugar with contributed to the overall weakness of the steel.
Super cool that you can spot that just by watching. I looked it up and they don't sell the 38 special version anymore. Would be sick to see more of these though
@@newtsleatherandmetalsmithy1827 Best of luck with your Journeyman test. I think I can safely say you’ll pass with knowledge like your original comment. My grandfather taught me an elementary level of bladesmithing when I was young and I’ve occasionally dabbled in it every once in a blue moon. He used to take old railway spikes and smith them into various different things like parts of jigs needed to help with carpentry, bookmaking/book spines, and various tools like flat head screwdrivers and wrenches. We made a rudimentary, general purpose knife out of one once. It’s held up for well over ten years but can’t hold a precise edge for very long. If you wouldn’t mind me picking your brain a little, what are some things bladesmithing hobbyists should know? And for fun, what different ideas, changes, and techniques would you use if you were asked to make a knife gun like in the video?
Under normal cases, it's probably not even supposed to be used, and if it is, very little, also definitely one not to carry concealed loaded, because it's easier to set off then a gun accidentally, but the manual reload of rounds makes it subjectively safer and a form of self defense that absolutely No one should argue as it doesn't house several shots.
I think it was the stabbing, jerking and twisting that weakened the cheap cast metal by making just enough play that in conjunction with the .38 specials recoil was enough to cause the failure. Depending on if or how it was heat treated and tempered could have also contributed to it.
It's kinda like that weapon from Final Fantasy VIII but more practical. Or if I was in a world like RWBY a weapon like that would be my choice to use (with stronger material of course).
Gun blades actually do exist, but they were all made back when guns weren't very practical or as practical/reliable as they are today. I'm sure one could be made today that's actually functional.
I think the manufacturer expected people to pull it out to show friends and maybe shoot a round or two. Scott put way more than they ever expected through it, lol.
I agree, I think it was meant to be a party piece, nothing more. There is one other possibility however; the fact that Scott stuck the knife into the target and fired at the same time may have also placed extra stress on the gun, since the "forward" part that contains the blade and barrel was quite securely lodged in the pineapple, whilst the "rear" part that contains the firing chamber, breech, and handle was forced backwards by the recoil. This was obviously strong enough to separate the two pieces, and maybe the manufacturer didn't intend for the gun to be fired while stuck in a target. Perhaps as a dual purpose weapon, this gun was meant to be used as EITHER a gun or a knife at any one moment, and not both at the same time. Who knows? lol
I absolutely love how slow the bullet is on the slow-motion. It actually looks like you're using a much higher-end camera like the sort that Gav and Dan use ; )
Tbh it's great marketing, the way he flings them about and dumps cinderblocks and big ol' water jugs on them shows how sturdy they are. I wonder how many he goes through...
I never got understood how that works. Like there was no barrel, i always thought and still do, that it doesnt shoot but rather make the swings stronger when he press the trigger.
The knife pistol looks pretty cool. It feels like a mix of a Derringer and a bowie knife. It's surprisingly accurate I'm shocked, feels like it should b in a wild west or final fantasy game
I've been watching for almost 3 months now and I got to say I've been obsessed! You mix informative with comedy so well. I hope your injuries from that .50 cal don't affect you much, I know that was years ago but still, and can't wait to see more! 😊
Seeing Scott jab the doctor thunder and it spray everywhere at 6:48 , plus the scream, was absolutely perfect. Had me dying because it happened so fast, and so quick, that i didn’t even see it spray the camera.
Came here to say this. The smash cut to Scott gently blowing the knifegun’s barrel clean after obliterating the camera with an impulsive stab was peak Scott.
This is the first video I saw in this channel and I always liked the concept of a weapon like this. As described, this dagger gun seems most effective as a melee weapon with the pistol dealing a killing blow if aimed at a vital spot when fired. Since it can only hold one bullet at a time before reloading and since it's a short barrel it's definitely not built to rely on range combat.
I suppose it can also give you a free hit before getting close. Like, firing a shot off from what seems to be a knife would probably shock and frighten a foe leaving them open. Although an obvious gun would probably discourage any physical attacker from coming close at all...
@@XenonPrimeSBSV You would either use it the way the video shows (stab and shoot) or if in a duel, use the blade to move the opponent's blade out of the way and then shoot him in the face up close.
i love the old folder knife/pistols. my local gun store had a few for sale for ages and no one ever bought them. they are typically single shot and some of them also double as "brass knuckles" because of how the grip works. they are also typically extremely poor quality lol
I can't remember it it's "My Pal" or "My friend" but it's a single finger knuck and a gun. Something I'd love to have in my collection just to own! Just double checked, it's called My Friend by James Reid.
I wanted to take the time to say thank you for putting all the time and effort and money into these videos even when things don’t go as planned you always find a way to make it better. I hope that you have a good rest of your week and can’t wait for the next video.
Seeing the catastrophic failure of the knife gun was entertaining but I'm very glad it failed in a way that did not hurt you. I feel you've had your fair share of that.
@@starkravinglad8099 An explosion (for example, a .50 cal rifle going boom) is a catastrophic failure. Brakes malfunctioning on a car causing a crash is a catastrophic failure. The knifegun experienced a very simple failure.
@@Brigand231 snapping in half and deemed completely unusable is not catastrophic? Just because it doesn't hurt you doesn't mean it's not a catastrophic failure. Always that one person in the comments that just can't leave well enough alone.
nice video scott, about the gunknife, this is miles away from my field, but for an item thats gonna be used for wacking and shooting, that pin its handling too much strain on its own.
I think a lever action for a drop block would maybe last longer than what we see in the video. (Knife+handle is one with enough hallow for the lever, pin, and dropblock.)
My favorite part of your videos is how happy you always are. You truly love what you do and it shows. Its like hanging out with a hype man who's always got something fun to do. 10/10, wish I could subscribe twice
It's fun to see that this kind of things keeps coming back up throughout history. We have surviving sword-guns, mace-guns, axe-guns... From back to the 1500's at least. There was a period in England where there were a lot of guns and concealed gun-sword-canes and the like existed. Pretty wild stuff. You could probably do a good series on weird things with guns in them. Maybe collab with a history tuber that might have access to fire something historical?
there was a lot of stuff like that but most were made as art or a show of craftsmanship. they regularly used because its the worst of both worlds. you are either gunna have a melee weapon with extra weight and bulkiness that fires not very well or a gun with extra weight and bulkiness that you can sometimes hit someone with. the best we ever came up with was bayonets, cuz it was just a spear, the all round best weapon due to how simple it is.
@@jak199527 Some of the axe guns seem like they maintained a pretty good axe shape while making room for the gun bits. Made for a short barrel, but it seems like more of a fire a bullet while closing into axe range weapon where bayonets are stab him if he gets too close while you're shooting weapon.
1500's? I know, gunpowder has a long history, but really usable handguns weren't a thing back then. They used bows and crossbows. Imagine, you have a one shot gun, that takes about a minute to reload and the cavalry is charging. You at least want a spear tip at the end of your musket. That's where it actually makes sense, to add a blade to a handgun and where the idea most likely comes from. The rest is gimmicky and useless, you're better off, buying and carrying a lighter gun and a lighter knife than a fowl compromise of both.
Man this was an episode littered with unfortunate failures. From the table breaking after tossing to the knife gun. Scott it’s clear you’re just too strong for these things to handle 😂
For the Knife Gun, believe it's the tip of the blade in proximity distance from the barrel that gives itself more buck packing more fire. That mini bayonet resembles a mod crafted in a video game.
Honestly, I would say it was legitimate, if it didn't break. However, that was because it was casted, not forged. Had the blade been forged along with the other simple parts, I think it could've held together better, but something that could contribute is the type of metal used. Hear me out on this, but although it would make it an expensive knife gun, titanium alloy or titanium in general, would make a great metal to withstand the recoil of .38 special, and would help contribute to the tensile strength of the blade, plus making it out of titanium makes it corrosion resistant, so you could have it around for longer periods of time.
This was my favorite episode. I busted out laughing when the blade broke and totally lost it with your reaction. Too funny, glad you did not blow your hand off.
Scott, just when I think there's nothing that could top the last video, you bring something else out. Your videos are absolutely fantastic. Not only educational, but also hilarious. Keep up the great work sir. Stay safe and God bless
Good to see the Chip-O-Matic is well! And at least the gun fired that last round safely. Someone in that situation would probably have other worries at this moment. You could try some more antique (probably blackpowder) version to make up for giving those eggplants the easy way out.😁
That was very interesting. I'm a fan of combination weapons, but that was both more accurate & more lethal than intended. If it hadn't broken it might have been worth replacing a knife in someone's EDC kit after sharpening
Hi Scott, good video. That hydrogel you used to measure the 38 special penetration can actually be melted and reformed to be reused so your chipper never had to meet its maker!
@@slashgigawon 😮that’s the first time I’ve ever seen a scam bot comment removed, hopefully it was the whole channel, thatll be up again tomorrow on a different account.
@@kill3rbamb146 I always report them and sometimes check on them, usually they get removed after a couple days. Doesn't really matter though when you can just make a new account in 20 seconds
Thought(s) on the knife pistol: Interesting concept, it would be interesting to see a company take idea and innovate a modern version with a longer barrel. Also, very glad there were no injuries when it failed.
If one was made, it would have to be magazine fed or have an internal magazine. I could easily see a lever action doing the job if they added a blade to the bottom of the barrel and allotted reinforcements to it so you wouldnt knock any internal parts loose on a swing.
Concept is old. If you go back into the pioneering days of firearm development, there's more than one weird concept of knife pistols, knuckleduster pistols, belt pistols.... the concept isn't a new one.
if I had a nickel for every time Scott had a gun explode in his hand, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice. on another note, at least this time it didn't explode quite so violently this time
Don't worry, Scott can always stick that almighty thumb in it if anything goes by the wayside, I mean he's done it once before, pretty sure he can pull it off again if he needed to. As for the knife-gun, I think it'd be more of a gimmicky weapon, you'd use it much like a knife in a fight, then when you've got a good stab in, you finish with the shot. That seems to be the idea behind this design since it did pretty decent job of digging in deep from up close.
Excellent video! Shooting apples was my favorite part just watching them explode! Excellent content and always entertaining thank you Scott you always brighten my day.
I just realized why getting your channel logo tattooed on your inner forearm was genius. He will never have to use a watermark for his slowmow footage, its always there so nobody ever has to wonder "who made this?"
I was really surprised it was a 38. I thought it was going to be a 22. I would totally be entertained all day long stabbing and shooting fruit, that's too fun lol. Another great one from the Scott's. Keep shooting Kentucky boy!👍
You my friend have earned yourself a new subscriber!!! And you you have any idea how many times I wanted to say, “that’s what she said!” Anytime you used the inches and penetration terms?! I couldn’t stop laughing.
Thank you for another great video. The look on your face when you realized you were filming a "when guns go boom" video, priceless. Keep up the good work.
😂😂 those apples didn’t have a chance, that looked like fun!! Scott’s reaction would be mine, just like a kid with a new toy. I don’t say it enough but I always enjoy your content. Makes me smile and something laugh at inappropriate times, such as right after fighting with the wife 😂 btw video ended too soon. I’m glad it broke and you didn’t get injured this time.
I think we need a special 4 million subscriber episode on how exactly you clean up that range after a day like this. lol and anything else behind the scenes! Especially a range tour!
The knife pistol needs work, but it could certainly become viable with some quality adjustments when it comes to sturdiness, and a way to fix in a revolver cylinder (which would probably also fix the first problem)
Its a novelty concept obviously =P But I think it broke because you shot it embedded, I'm not saying that it shouldn't be "rated" for that. But what I think happens is the blade flex's pretty substantially under recoil (you can see it in the slow mo) When you had the blade in the pineapple or gel it had nowhere to go, which put that stress on that metal piece. I don't think they test fired it with the blade embedded that much. Great video as always!
I loved the gunknife, how do I get one? 😁 I think a smaller caliber, with less recoil, extends the durability of the gunknife. Another excellent video. Thanks Scott, have a good week. 👏🏻🤜🏻🤛🏻🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
How do we get nice things? We make'em. I have my own notion of the knife pistol, more like the Elgin "cutlass pistol, that is black powder percussion with a good tempered carbon steel blade. Can do, is in the drawing and collecting parts stage as yet. If I can, you can.
RIP 🪦 lol! I hope you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching! Side note, I’m pretty sure that chrono reading was wrong 😑.

That thing was a revolver too wasn't it?
Also, IIRC he fired that on slashes, not stabs for some reason.

This is the first video I saw in this channel and I always liked the concept of a weapon like this. As described, this dagger gun seems most effective as a melee weapon with the pistol dealing a killing blow if aimed at a vital spot when fired. Since it can only hold one bullet at a time before reloading and since it's a short barrel it's definitely not built to rely on range combat.
😶,.... Same; .... it's my first watch of any of this,.... And I am NOT disappointed 😁
Also can give you a way to more safely approach a threat
I suppose it can also give you a free hit before getting close.
Like, firing a shot off from what seems to be a knife would probably shock and frighten a foe leaving them open.
Although an obvious gun would probably discourage any physical attacker from coming close at all...
@@XenonPrimeSBSV You would either use it the way the video shows (stab and shoot) or if in a duel, use the blade to move the opponent's blade out of the way and then shoot him in the face up close.
i love the old folder knife/pistols. my local gun store had a few for sale for ages and no one ever bought them. they are typically single shot and some of them also double as "brass knuckles" because of how the grip works. they are also typically extremely poor quality lol
Look up an apache pistol
I remember those! Ugly as hell but cool idea
I can't remember it it's "My Pal" or "My friend" but it's a single finger knuck and a gun. Something I'd love to have in my collection just to own!
Just double checked, it's called My Friend by James Reid.
the mall ninja weapon of firearms.
My Dad Watches You! I saw him watching you on our TV (My dad is 56) it brings him so much joy it's adorable❦
I wanted to take the time to say thank you for putting all the time and effort and money into these videos even when things don’t go as planned you always find a way to make it better. I hope that you have a good rest of your week and can’t wait for the next video.
Chip was a valiant warrior. .I wish him a speedy recovery
that ballistic gel was so thick the knife gun struggled to penetrate with the blade.
Seeing the catastrophic failure of the knife gun was entertaining but I'm very glad it failed in a way that did not hurt you. I feel you've had your fair share of that.
The concept itself is kinda stupid lol, you wanna have a knife with the lethality of a gunshot but it's most effective at knifes range...
Catastrophic?
@@Brigand231 The gun broke in half. I'd call that a pretty catastrophic failure
@@starkravinglad8099 An explosion (for example, a .50 cal rifle going boom) is a catastrophic failure. Brakes malfunctioning on a car causing a crash is a catastrophic failure. The knifegun experienced a very simple failure.
@@Brigand231 snapping in half and deemed completely unusable is not catastrophic? Just because it doesn't hurt you doesn't mean it's not a catastrophic failure. Always that one person in the comments that just can't leave well enough alone.
when your mother is britain but your father is american
The table throwing is now one of my favorite thing i love to see in Sott's videos, it always make me bust a laugh!!
nice video scott, about the gunknife, this is miles away from my field, but for an item thats gonna be used for wacking and shooting, that pin its handling too much strain on its own.
Yea it was designed for hunting pigs, not batoning wood
Wtf are you on about? Nobody said anything about batoning wood.
@@frisc0strangler207 Please use it for neither.
I think a lever action for a drop block would maybe last longer than what we see in the video. (Knife+handle is one with enough hallow for the lever, pin, and dropblock.)
oh really what makes you say that?
Scott reminds me of that 5yr old boy, who's prepped up on Coca-Cola, sweets & the joy of being a kid. Just pure destructive, chaotic fun. Excellent 😂
This to be the funniest most entertaining channel on RUclips. My kids and I really enjoy watching the antics. Thanks for making it family friendly
My favorite part of your videos is how happy you always are. You truly love what you do and it shows. Its like hanging out with a hype man who's always got something fun to do. 10/10, wish I could subscribe twice
Scott somehow managed to make a super fun and entering video out of a single shot knife/pistols. What a showmen. Big fan of the wood chipper as well.
It's fun to see that this kind of things keeps coming back up throughout history.
We have surviving sword-guns, mace-guns, axe-guns... From back to the 1500's at least. There was a period in England where there were a lot of guns and concealed gun-sword-canes and the like existed. Pretty wild stuff.
You could probably do a good series on weird things with guns in them. Maybe collab with a history tuber that might have access to fire something historical?
Gaxes?
Only if Ian wears his Gun Jesus costume and Scott wears an eggplant costume during the entire video.
there was a lot of stuff like that but most were made as art or a show of craftsmanship. they regularly used because its the worst of both worlds. you are either gunna have a melee weapon with extra weight and bulkiness that fires not very well or a gun with extra weight and bulkiness that you can sometimes hit someone with. the best we ever came up with was bayonets, cuz it was just a spear, the all round best weapon due to how simple it is.
@@jak199527 Some of the axe guns seem like they maintained a pretty good axe shape while making room for the gun bits. Made for a short barrel, but it seems like more of a fire a bullet while closing into axe range weapon where bayonets are stab him if he gets too close while you're shooting weapon.
1500's? I know, gunpowder has a long history, but really usable handguns weren't a thing back then. They used bows and crossbows.
Imagine, you have a one shot gun, that takes about a minute to reload and the cavalry is charging. You at least want a spear tip at the end of your musket. That's where it actually makes sense, to add a blade to a handgun and where the idea most likely comes from. The rest is gimmicky and useless, you're better off, buying and carrying a lighter gun and a lighter knife than a fowl compromise of both.
Man this was an episode littered with unfortunate failures. From the table breaking after tossing to the knife gun. Scott it’s clear you’re just too strong for these things to handle 😂
Scott testing stuff till it breaks ...not always when he expects it to ! Just trying to get the next line without cracking up was sheer gold 😁
I love all the unique firearms you are bringing to the channel! Can you please do a video on the Punt Gun?
Maybe Scott will do a review of the LGBFJB , fully semiautomatic assault rifle that shoots a 30 caliber clip in just 1 second.
@@jonbrantley it was actually called a 30 caliber magazine clip. Made me think about how much I love the Ford Focus car motorcycle
@@tgi3d881 , lol, and I'm also quite fond of my Pontilac Chevfordlet Olsmobuick
@@jonbrantley the new ThunderCougarFalconBird from Ford seems like the choice to go with.
Omg I love me some Punt Gun 😆
For the Knife Gun, believe it's the tip of the blade in proximity distance from the barrel that gives itself more buck packing more fire. That mini bayonet resembles a mod crafted in a video game.
7:57 you have one of the best maniacal laughters, its wild how it broke
The amount of fun this guy has on a regular basis makes us all extremely jealous
Oh man when that blade broke off I died laughing in anticipation of his reaction which did not disappoint.
Honestly, I would say it was legitimate, if it didn't break. However, that was because it was casted, not forged. Had the blade been forged along with the other simple parts, I think it could've held together better, but something that could contribute is the type of metal used. Hear me out on this, but although it would make it an expensive knife gun, titanium alloy or titanium in general, would make a great metal to withstand the recoil of .38 special, and would help contribute to the tensile strength of the blade, plus making it out of titanium makes it corrosion resistant, so you could have it around for longer periods of time.
@@goatgunner8693 there's a reason you don't see many titanium knives, kid.
@@Mr371312 Could you tell me the reason? I don't know much about this topic
Spoilers!

Dude i missed your videos. This is great keep it up.
Scott I owe you a beer just for having the sheer audacity to abuse a rare collectable like that. Love it man, keep doing what you do best.
This was my favorite episode. I busted out laughing when the blade broke and totally lost it with your reaction. Too funny, glad you did not blow your hand off.
There can only be one Scott, and I sure am glad we can enjoy him! Take care friend!
I love how stupidly entertaining this channel is lmao!
Scott, just when I think there's nothing that could top the last video, you bring something else out. Your videos are absolutely fantastic. Not only educational, but also hilarious. Keep up the great work sir. Stay safe and God bless
Good to see the Chip-O-Matic is well!
And at least the gun fired that last round safely. Someone in that situation would probably have other worries at this moment.
You could try some more antique (probably blackpowder) version to make up for giving those eggplants the easy way out.😁
Eggplant shot at point blank with a blunderbuss would be pretty epic.
@@mcwilliams4546 I would go with the eggplant puree can vs the blunderbuss... or perhaps a small cannon, like Brandon Herrera has.
@@mar71n32n0v1lLL0 a couple solid options as well
Awesome video, answering the important questions in life such as "can you put ballistic gel through a chipper?"
As it turns out no you can't 😢😅
Nope you can’t 👎
The Furby had me rolling
This is probably the funniest Kentucky Ballistics video ever
The look of befuddlement you had as your hand came away with only half the weapon you expected was so damn funny!
Bravo!
. . . Huh.
@@kaseymathew1893 the look on his face when the knife-gun broke was funny
dont comprehend
That was very interesting. I'm a fan of combination weapons, but that was both more accurate & more lethal than intended. If it hadn't broken it might have been worth replacing a knife in someone's EDC kit after sharpening
Agreed. I would have considered getting one had it not self destructed.
Scott single handedly keeping the the folding table industry booming, everybody knows the rules!
First time here, and I am thoroughly convinced this guy has harnessed the soul (and voice) of Chris Farley.
Hi Scott, good video.
That hydrogel you used to measure the 38 special penetration can actually be melted and reformed to be reused so your chipper never had to meet its maker!
@@slashgigawon 😮that’s the first time I’ve ever seen a scam bot comment removed, hopefully it was the whole channel, thatll be up again tomorrow on a different account.
@@kill3rbamb146 I always report them and sometimes check on them, usually they get removed after a couple days. Doesn't really matter though when you can just make a new account in 20 seconds
We need a Kentucky Chippers channel! It’d be way too much fun to see Scott feed the Chip-o-Matic 5000 different things
Scott, your reaction when the blade broke was epic! I haven't laughed that hard in a while! My chest hurts from coughing while laughing!🙃
Not only seeing scott wrecking havoc and having fun doing it. Your videos are funny because the intros and awesome for the videos
Thought(s) on the knife pistol:
Interesting concept, it would be interesting to see a company take idea and innovate a modern version with a longer barrel.
Also, very glad there were no injuries when it failed.
If one was made, it would have to be magazine fed or have an internal magazine. I could easily see a lever action doing the job if they added a blade to the bottom of the barrel and allotted reinforcements to it so you wouldnt knock any internal parts loose on a swing.
@@Confused_Master So like.....a rifle with a bayonette you mean?
Concept is old. If you go back into the pioneering days of firearm development, there's more than one weird concept of knife pistols, knuckleduster pistols, belt pistols.... the concept isn't a new one.
@@ChrisWilson-fl8ly lol I was gonna say the exact same thing.
Already done It's called an M16 with a bayonet attachment.
It's just criminal how much fun you have making this video.
Funny dude, instant sub!
if I had a nickel for every time Scott had a gun explode in his hand, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.
on another note, at least this time it didn't explode quite so violently this time
This is a text for a next T-shirt 😂
You forgot about the nitro express 500 pistol
I'm pretty sure this is a Phineas and Ferb quote
Don't worry, Scott can always stick that almighty thumb in it if anything goes by the wayside, I mean he's done it once before, pretty sure he can pull it off again if he needed to.
As for the knife-gun, I think it'd be more of a gimmicky weapon, you'd use it much like a knife in a fight, then when you've got a good stab in, you finish with the shot. That seems to be the idea behind this design since it did pretty decent job of digging in deep from up close.
Wouldn’t really say it exploded
You got some of the funniest content i seen in a while. Its awesome
Excellent video! Shooting apples was my favorite part just watching them explode! Excellent content and always entertaining thank you Scott you always brighten my day.
Why do I find so much enjoyment watching Scott throw things in the Chip-o-matic 5000 lmao Scott you’re amazing man. Loving all your content!
It's a crazy little machine!
It kind of sounds like it just revs without limitation and vibrates like crazy and will explode at any moment.
5:24 Scott definitely regret laughing after he jammed that grinder knowing how strong that gel is. lol
Ha! I see you've brought a knife to a gun fight... wait a minute what is that?!?!?
You never fail to put a smile on my face and the occasional heart attack from things going boom unintentionally. Stay safe.
never a dull moment on this channel, love the content guys
Your videos are totally awesome ! Thanks for putting these weapons to the test . That knife gun is something I would've bought .
I just realized why getting your channel logo tattooed on your inner forearm was genius. He will never have to use a watermark for his slowmow footage, its always there so nobody ever has to wonder "who made this?"
I was really surprised it was a 38. I thought it was going to be a 22. I would totally be entertained all day long stabbing and shooting fruit, that's too fun lol. Another great one from the Scott's. Keep shooting Kentucky boy!👍
Probably should have been a .22 based on the outcome.
i was thinking .25
I wanna build one, only in 12 ga
For the intro alone, you got a like. You sir continue to make quality content and I genuinely enjoy every video, I've been following you since 2020.
I like all of the extra messy/weird/destructive/surprise/funny stuff you do. Keep it up!
7:50 that well was so incredibly timed i spit tea everywhere
6:48 Haha, Cameraman shot! 😂😂
You my friend have earned yourself a new subscriber!!!
And you you have any idea how many times I wanted to say, “that’s what she said!” Anytime you used the inches and penetration terms?! I couldn’t stop laughing.
Thank you for another great video. The look on your face when you realized you were filming a "when guns go boom" video, priceless. Keep up the good work.
I love how Scott keeps chucking ballistic gel in the chipper 😂
😂😂 those apples didn’t have a chance, that looked like fun!! Scott’s reaction would be mine, just like a kid with a new toy. I don’t say it enough but I always enjoy your content. Makes me smile and something laugh at inappropriate times, such as right after fighting with the wife 😂 btw video ended too soon. I’m glad it broke and you didn’t get injured this time.
*chance
@@ProudToBeWhite yeah that’s what I meant, it’s fixed now.
I think we need a special 4 million subscriber episode on how exactly you clean up that range after a day like this. lol and anything else behind the scenes! Especially a range tour!
Yep, great idea 👍
I love your extremely goofy funny videos like this one. I almost laughed nonstop watching this one.
The knife pistol needs work, but it could certainly become viable with some quality adjustments when it comes to sturdiness, and a way to fix in a revolver cylinder (which would probably also fix the first problem)
Its a novelty concept obviously =P But I think it broke because you shot it embedded, I'm not saying that it shouldn't be "rated" for that. But what I think happens is the blade flex's pretty substantially under recoil (you can see it in the slow mo) When you had the blade in the pineapple or gel it had nowhere to go, which put that stress on that metal piece. I don't think they test fired it with the blade embedded that much. Great video as always!
I loved the gunknife, how do I get one? 😁
I think a smaller caliber, with less recoil, extends the durability of the gunknife. Another excellent video. Thanks Scott, have a good week. 👏🏻🤜🏻🤛🏻🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
How do we get nice things? We make'em. I have my own notion of the knife pistol, more like the Elgin "cutlass pistol, that is black powder percussion with a good tempered carbon steel blade. Can do, is in the drawing and collecting parts stage as yet.
If I can, you can.
Less recoil? Lol
Dude I looked the cheapest one I could find is $1000
