    Really liked your review of the knife. You were very fair which unfortunately some will never forgive them for the past. Like the blade looks like a good clip point. I saw you thumb flip it can you finger or spidey flick it without putting blade play in the pivot?
    Look forward to your other review. Is the Amazon link an affiliate link for you? Hope you and all your family are doing well.

      Yeah, you can, but the pivot does loosen as you use it, so it will need to get adjusted semiregularly or loctited.
      This is just a link to the product, for ease of ordering if you so choose. I don't have any affiliate links or anything like that.
      All is well with the family, best wishes to you and yours as well!

      Spydieflick it with ease, right out of the box. But yeah, keep a check on that pivotscrew! Mine just fell out after a bit of mindless fidgeting🥴 No real problem, easily fixed, but you might want to get some blue loctite, secure the pivot to where you find the action is excellent and then let it rest for a day. It's a great knife at a very nice price😎

    I have one, its pretty amazing especially for the price. The action is as good as any Benchmade which is impressive considering its on washers, and there's no bladeplay. My only complaint is the sharp G10 and the need for some loctite on the pivot.

    I have one of these. It's a great knife for the money. The pivot screw walked it's way out on me, so I threw some blue loctite on it, problem solved. That's really my only complaint, but thankfully, one that's easily rectified. Fun to fidget with, great blade profile, fairly thin edge so it slices well. For $30, it's easy to like. I'm a sucker for a nice clip point, so when I saw it, I had to grab one. No regrets..would I pay more for it? No, but at the $30 price point, I feel it was worth the purchase.

    My first reaction was I never heard of them, but that pivet looks so so familiar. Maybe im just thinking of QSP or something.
    Man its a great time to be into knives. I drooled over the axis lock for years, but up till about 2 years ago benchmade was just out of the question for my budget. Benchmade or the axis lock more specifically. Was may gateway. I wonder if such budget friendly options where available years back, if I would have ever even bothered venturing into the " premium" knife world. Or at least not fallen face first into it 😆

    this knife is very late has insert liners cuts like a champ., You can lay the edge back, it’s been a really good gutter I can’t say it hasn’t been it’s like 30 bucks or something in 2022. Yeah it’s a good one it doesn’t get any attention because nobody makes anything on it. Good thing there’s people like this guy and a couple other guys who don’t give a shit about getting paid to sell knives or or show them or whatever how it works. Just say it’s a good knife at a great price. There is going to be some uproar in 2023 over The prices of knives. I’m sure there’s plenty of suckers out there but they have seriously gone through the roof

      Yep, I always did. That's why I had to give up making videos. I rambled on and on to the point that I missed out on everything else going on in my life.
      My daughter took her first steps while I was trying to explain my opinion on 8Cr13MoV. My wife filed for divorce while I was debating what sharpening system would be best for beginners. And my dog died while I counted down the best aftermarket scales for a Mini Griptilian.
      Even now, as I ramble through this response, I'm missing my turn in the Secret Santa presentation at my company's Christmas party.
      Tough times, thanks for pointing out the mistakes I made when I filmed this video almost two years ago. It reminds me of the work I still need to do to improve.
