- Today we’re taking a look at a prototype of the Solaris, the debut design by David (aka Blade Banter) under his new company name: sOrion Knives. As a space & astrophysics nerd I have a healthy appreciation for the name!
Kickstarter campaign went live on Friday, July 24th & will run until Monday, September 7th.

Sean, thank you so much for taking the time kind words, and the support.
Of course! I’m honored that you’d trust me to be one of the fortunate folks to have the opportunity to check out the prototype! I’m on team Orion for sure!
So happy for David and so looking forward to the success of the Solaris!! Great review and good to hear you again my friend!
Thanks so much JB!!
You're definitely a space geek with those mission patches on the table!
Hahaha! That’s the nicest thing anyone’s said to me all day! Lol. 👊🏻
@@GearedTowardGear1 Heck yeah buddy, you should have seen me fist-pumping when the SpaceX Crew Dragon lifted off! And I'll be watching Perseverance when it lifts off tomorrow
Yes!! I’ll be watching too, I’m super stoked about the capabilities of that rover. In about 7 months we’ll have the Solaris arriving in our mailboxes and the Perseverence arriving on Mars! Haha.
I love the knife, and the book choices. 👍
That was a great video. Not only did justice to the knife but to David as well. Figured you were taking a break. I saw limited instagram because it started overwhelming me. I would get a post 8 or more times about same thing. Glad you decided to do this. Know things are busy for you. Hope the family is doing well and all the work regulations aren't driving you to crazy. Prayers as always take care of you and your family. Stay safe and hope everyone stays healthy.
Thanks so much Rick! It was fun making a video after a couple months off. Things are good though, just super busy w/ work and the family, bit everyone is doing well and staying health. All the best my friend b
Excellent to hear from you again Sean I hope you and the family are safe happy and healthy and hope you are enjoying dad time with your little ones another awesome review I do like this one alot it is well designed and nice to see a button lock we don't see enough of them in my opinion
Hey Jeremy! So good to hear from you man! Thanks for taking the time to watch the video, I think the knife will go over well - it just surpassed 50% of the goal after less than a week so things are looking good. The family is doing great by the way, thanks for asking. I hope all is well with you.
Nice to hear from you Sean. I wish David the best with this, great to see him take it to the next step.
Hey Randy! It’s great to hear from you! I hope all is well, stay safe my friend. 👊🏻
Super cool! Looks like a great knife and a heck of a value at that price! This will be added to my list for sure!
Right on Mark! Thanks for watching boo!!
Loved your review of the Solaris. Backed the Kickstarter Campaign. Have a great day.
Thanks so much for watching. Have a great Friday and a great weekend!
I really like this knife a lot, and I enjoyed the background info. I wish David nothing but the best on this project. I love seeing people I’m familiar with coming up with great knife designs and seeing them them through to production. Also, great to see you back at the RUclips game, Sean.
Amen, Paul! Thanks so much for watching, and I always love hearing from you. All the best my friend!
Thank you it's moving a long almost at 70% backed currently.
It's about time!!! So glad to hear your voice again brother 👊 Space nerds unite💯
Unite!!!! Haha. Thanks for watching Scott!
Going to be getting one for sure. Very cool looking knife.
It is good to see you back. I take frequent breaks from the internet and I am not even a content creator. Just do what you need to do.
It is exciting to see this product finally launch. I also really like the company and knife name. I tried to offer David some name suggestions but the only one that came to mind was Corona. I think it is way to soon for that one lol.
Haha, the corona would be a cool name. Too soon? Maybe. But it would still be awesome.
I think it's neat that you found a knife that sort of reflects your other interests. Great video, my friend.
Thanks so much David!
Hello Sean. Great to see you back. Hope you and the family are well. Can't watch now (on vacation) but will catch up later. Take care my friend.
Hello my friend! Great to hear from you - the family is doing fantastic, and I hope things are well for you too.
Hey Sean, good to see you back brother. I should imagine with two little ones you must be busy. Great review as always, sweet knife, sweet price. Take care man.
Thanks man! Great to hear from you. Hope all is well!
Just bought this 🔪 with Stonewall Blade!
Very cool 🔪 Knife!!!
March is coming. Cannot wait to get my two knives.
Was really cool to see start to this point for this knife. Can't get one but it's awesome to see it.
It’s been a long journey for sure, thanks for watching Jade - always nice to hear from you!
It was good to hear from you, I like the knife I would have to go with the blue stone wash though.
That's one of the options available currently at 86% backed
Good to see you back mate! Nice looking knife too :)
Fredrik! Great to hear from you my friend, I hope all is well!
Yeeeeee Haaa..Good to see ya back..
Hey Ray! It’s awesome to hear from you. I hope you and the family are doing well!
I’ve got two ordered. Can’t wait to mod them up!!
Woot woot! I can’t wait to see what you do with them!
Nice, what mods are you looking to do?
This is my first experience with a Kickstarter campaign and I really hope it meets the $25k goal. I'd hate to see this deal fall through.
The knife I have ordered is the very same as you described you're getting for yourself. Do I wish that delivery would be sooner than February of next year? Well of course I do but, good things come to those who wait. And I think this is something worth waiting for.
Very well said William. I agree 100%. I’m equally excited for David’s success and for the knife itself.
Awesome thanks a lot.
Welcome back GTG the Solaris is a great looking knife I really love it
Awesome thanks a lot for the comment.
Good to be back man! Thanks for watching! It’s definitely got potential that’s for sure - the Kickstarter is roughly 40% to its goal after only a few days so things are looking good.
Whaaaatttttttt????? GTG MAKING A COMEBACK!!!!!!
Haha! Something like that!
Interesting knife for sure. Those bearings really make the action smooth. With such easy action, I’d probably prefer it not have a flipper tab. Would still have the thumb studs and button lock opening, but would give the knife a smoother look and feel. Just my two cents. But a great knife for sure.
Yeah, the action is stupid smooth. It gives you plenty of options for deployment that’s for sure. If you really wanted to you could have your son “delete” the flipper tab for you!
Eyy my dudeee
What’s up Zack!
Hey GTG, do you know where the manufacture/assembly of these knives will take place? It's a great-looking knife.
Hey there, thanks for watching! It’ll be manufactured by QSP Knives in China. I know David looked for a US OEM manufacturer for a while but none of them were accepting new design manufacturing & the price would go up of course. I know it’s something that will be explored more in the future. 👍
Thanks for the word! I hope he can find US (or at least non-PRC) options for future projects. He definitely has designed a sweet knife, here.
That’s the same steel the Mora Garberg is made from?
In looking it up real quick, yeah the stainless version uses 14c28n.
Yes sir. There a carbon steel version & a stainless which is Sandvik 14C28N.
How about talking about the KNIFE!!!
I did, quite a lot actually.
Ships to US only, that needs to change , just missed out on one order right there .
I can understand that, and I think it might be an option to add. Just with shipping issues as of late and looking at cost I didn't know if international folks would be willing to pay a $20-30 premium for shipping as priority internation shipping from USPS is about $30-40. Please let me know your thoughts.
I hear ya Jamie - shipping is wierd right now, but I imagine it can be worked out. Heck, I’ll ship one to ya! Lol. Hope all is well with you.
@@GearedTowardGear1 all good over the pond , hope your good over there , might have to take you up on it , I want to back this campaign , I like to see mans Ideas and dreams come true, plus the knife is cool .
@@BladeBanter I'm used to having to pay extra for shipping , all us UK and international folks are , I've been having folding pocket knife fatigue of late , and have been only been buying custom fixed blades of late , but your story and drive makes me want one of these, plus be nice to enable a persons vision .
I second this - living overseas has forced me to become accustomed to paying extra to get the gear I want!
Holly smokes what were you in jail locked up!!!!!!!
Haha, yeah man! I’ve been in “work & dad jail”, lol. Just staying crazy busy with the new baby and with work. Great to hear from you brother!
Geared Toward Gear yeah man likewise stay safe...... welcome back
Thanks bro, same to you!
