The way people get me going about a product they are presenting, is talking about it casually and with their true personality, not by trying to present it. And this man from CRKT, absolutely nails it.
CRKT is hands down the most interesting and exciting knife brand out there atm. They know how to respect their classics whilst innovating and keeping the creative juices flowing. Gotta love'em.
Ok, thanks for listening on the Provoke! Love the price, totally happy with the materials (not missing the higher grade steel on a model like this for the purpose it serves) but the colors! Please offer a neutral color. Black or grey. This is a defense/tactical knife with electric ass neon colors? Does anyone else think that's a little screwy?
Awesome! One of the most interesting with the new knives, and definitely the most entertaining knife banter ever!!! Great job guys!!! CRKT has great knives some of my favorites.
I have to say, CRKT is one of my favorite brands. Not because they make the best knives, or are the best value, or have the best designs (although they are not bad by any means), but because they innovate and listen to feedback. Love the new field strip, took the loose teflon and fixed it, and made it easier to break down. Great job!!
@Fuck You he’s definitely not there anymore. I don’t think there is any public info as to why he left. Only that he left. I think this was his last video
I'm a CRKT fan and have carried an M16 for years. Ryan did a great job, both with his presentation and with the "Hot Chip Challenge"...lol. Great job guys.
Yeah, makes no sense. Assisted knives are so commonly regulated by states and cities; it's a goddamn wonder how someone used their big boy brain to think that would make financial sense for the company. Smh
I have a snap lock, thought it was a novelty knife because of its unique slightly radical design. It works! I carry it often! I thought it odd at first, but I’ve fallen in love with the simple design!
Two Persian parents... who had three sons born in the United States of America... and the oldest son won three Persian inspired knives, the CRKT Ritual, and gave them to both of his little brothers while keeping one for himself. Speaking it into existence.
That knife is INSANE OMG, THE COLOR THE SHAPE, THE SIZE WHAT A BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL KNIFE KNIFE RITUAL ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. I rarely if ever spend more then $55 on a knife but this one if not in price range will save up for can't wait to see the price. Literally going crazy for this knife will do my best t get 2 one to show off and one for display WoW WoW 😳. I HAVE TO HAVE ONE BADLY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“this knife is already for you” Bromaaaance! :) it’s extravagant and fancy just right as a gift nice to see you guys having fun and good job for all presenters doing it in harmony:)
Love my squid, so many down it. But I carry it all the time and wouldn’t trade it. Whether some view the steel as inferior or not, it’s never not been able to do the job.
For those of you who don't know, lot's of folding (classic slip joint) brands would send a giant display knife with shipments to licensed dealers (mostly German and Italian made knives) to display with the production knives! Some are 1 offs and others are limited runs! You could purchase some of these from Smokey Mountain Knife Works or if you was lucky enough to grab one from the Saturday Night Knife And Gun Show when it was on the air!
@Wil Blackburn I used to like assisted knives but they always feel cheap after I got a couple good knives I have developed a hate towards the assisted what do you like about them out of curiosity
Awesome. Really good video. I like CRKT a lot and it's a great idea to come back and improve existing products. I definitely want to pick up some of these knives. Nice to see the bearings on some more affordable items too and that easy tear down option is kinda neat. I always wanted an easier way to take a dirty knife apart to clean it, or even oil it.
@John Daley you chopped a gigantic, dry bone, and the edge chipped. Whatcha gonna try next, try splitting cobblestones with it? Cold steel knives are tough, but they don't defy the laws of physics.
@Elijah Soper not at all. Crkt doesn’t do a good treatment. Cold steel has done it in the past with a cryo treat (what the chemistry of the steel begs for) and can get close to buck level 420hc from it. Still not a world beater but not the worst
So hyped the LCK is back, one of my favorite knives. Shame it still has 8Cr13MoV and that new assist. Would love to see an unassisted version with better steel!
My problem with the LCK+ (I have the blackout) is the flipper requires an insane amount of force sometimes to deploy the blade. Not sure if I got a defective knife or something, but compared to even something like the Boker Starfighter XL which has a bigger blade and requires a good amount of force, the LCK+ just needs a comical amount. And comparing it to the Kershaw Leek's action is like night and day. The Leek's action is easy, smooth, no problems.
I bought a crkt cruiser special forces years ago. On sale at my local sporting goods store. After years of use, screws loosened. I recently tightened them back up. Outstanding product! I use the bottom end as a bottleneck opener. Scratches on polymer still strong. A metal plate would have helped.
I wish I could work as a blade designer. I'm a blade addict myself I have over 200 that I've been collecting since I was a child and I appreciate everything from high class to daily beaters and have a few design ideas of my own.
This really pains me because I believe that CRKT has some of the best designs in the knife world, but they use subpar materials for their blades. I actually really love alot of the designs from CRKT but i've never gotten any of them because the blades are in 8cr usually. I'm not a snob, I love my D2 blades and 420HC's. But the fact is that CRKT having an 8cr blade in 2021 when places like CRJB, Civivi, and Ontario (Rat 1 and 2) all have just as interesting knives with better materials for the same price or less, has and likely will keep me from getting their knives. And when they do use better materials, like the D2 Pilar their great! Still love the video though!
Now they just need to make their prices competitive, especially given where they're made. Nearly $100 for 1.4116 is a joke, the field strip isn't that mind blowing. That's a $20 knife blade steel.
@@jamesgoodlet7557 I found a knife with the exact same materials, $30. Only difference is the field strip which apparently adds another $60-$70 to the price tag here? Nonsensical.
Every one of those products can be had with premium steel, but even their 8cr has amazing heat treat. Just ask the Veterans who took CRKT knives to war and back with them.
I did not know much about CRKT until this video. I have been using their Drifter well 2 of them. A small one and one a little larger. I love them. Keeps edge well and no plastic. Saw a few i would like to add to the collection though. Thank you.
@@jeremytorres165 because they use garbage knife steel but pair it with this "revolutionary design" to drive up the price. The OD Green bona fide isn't even D2 steel, it's 1.4116, at $100 that's insane. I had to send mine back because I thought both had D2 blades. And to be clear D2 at $100 is insane as well.
Blackie Collins created assisted opening. It was called the strut n cut because of the torsion bar on his motorcycle's suspension. I think Case or Randall may have made it production. It was initiated by flicking ramping on the radius of the end of the closed blade sort of a top flipper. Maybe it was Myerco....?
Any reason they changed the foresight to injection molding? the aluminum is like 3rd best part of my original foresight. Also my first production foresight has needed zero maintenance and the action is still butter smooth. why fix what aint broke! lol but still cool to see its receiving some love.
Talon: "10/10 would not recommend"
Blade HQ: "but it's Ryan at CRKT"
Talon: "...yeah ok do it"
You are a true sport, hands down! That M16 was AWESOME too! 😀
You should look at Joerg Sprave's modification to the Provoke. It might be a good idea to implement into the design.
Sorry... I guess 😂 awesome new spread guys!

Just wanted to say thank you for the updated CEO.
The CRKT guy was really good at presenting their products. Good job!
And his hands have cuts all over them. Lmao. So he actually plays with the knives. 😂
That was definitely the best episode I have seen in awhile. The three of them had really good chemistry.
The ritual aka the gas station knife

i know right i'm gonna have to get some v2 field strip shit

Yep. That was a quote from 2020, and definitely a fitting statement about the year in general I think.
@CRKTOfficial Never Disappoints, every year they blow it out of the water with new models and designs! Keep it up!!
Shout out to Ken Onion for his multiple innovations and designs. Can't think of anyone who's had more of an impact on the knife world. Thanks!🇺🇸
Leek is still my favorite EDC, so much more unassuming than a lot of the knives I have.
One of the most exciting episodes of knife banter. Super enjoyable. You guys are awesome, keep up the awesome work. Happy New Years!
I always love watching the CRKT new knife videos.
Always makes me laugh and the gifts are ridiculous
Ok, thanks for listening on the Provoke! Love the price, totally happy with the materials (not missing the higher grade steel on a model like this for the purpose it serves) but the colors! Please offer a neutral color. Black or grey. This is a defense/tactical knife with electric ass neon colors? Does anyone else think that's a little screwy?
Great show guys!
Much love from Switzerland
Zak hated all of this 😂 poor guy lol. “I’m totally into this” then laughs as he tries not to throw up.
"Oh yeah this assist is great uhuh yeah"
That was awesome the look on his face when he opened the box with the lamp was priceless like a little kid on Christmas
I can't even explain how long I've waited for this video.
The day has come.
where was week one wowsday?
Why CRKT?
@@dieseldabz7104 their designs have always been my favorite. The materials they use... not so much

Awesome! One of the most interesting with the new knives, and definitely the most entertaining knife banter ever!!! Great job guys!!! CRKT has great knives some of my favorites.
Awesome video! This community is blessed with so much good and fun content to keep us happy!
Here’s the deal... first and foremost CRKT is the business... they don’t mess around. Truly quality product.
All extremely gorgeous knives guys, 2021 just got better!
I have to say, CRKT is one of my favorite brands.

Zac starting off the new year right by holding the Giant M-16 by the blade edge.
It may or may not be sharp......
It immediately disturbed me.
I thought it was photoshoped when I first saw the thumbnail
@Fuck You he’s definitely not there anymore. I don’t think there is any public info as to why he left. Only that he left. I think this was his last video
I'm a CRKT fan and have carried an M16 for years. Ryan did a great job, both with his presentation and with the "Hot Chip Challenge"...lol. Great job guys.
They would make so much more money if that whole line up wasn’t assisted and they used actually decent knife steels.
Yeah as much as I like the knives, I agree
I love CRKT's designs and hate the materials. I also think it was super risky throwing out so many assisted knives
D2 is a good budget steel though
@@fullfire0 I don't personally consider 90 bucks "budget" tho

someone needs to sew a giant pocket to store that in
Im a guy i can fit it in my pocket
Might need suspenders for that one.
Omg. The best video ever. Going through something like that forges lifelong friendships.

I have the CEO in D2...would love to see this new one with upgraded steel as well. Great EDC carry.
I'd love to see a total steel upgrade. They have excellent designs.
An M4 CEO = yummy!
The editor that pulled out Bromance at 13:40 deserves a raise. Took me straight back to middle school nostalgia.
great that they're making assisted knives better but in my mind there's literally no reason to make a well made knife assisted
Think its making them more user friendly for ppl who aren't knife ppl. Or ppl or work with gloves.
Agreed make it right and it won't need help opening
Exactly
@Wil Blackburn I used to like assisted knives but they always feel cheap after I got a couple good knives I have developed a hate towards the assisted what do you like about them out of curiosity

This is a top 5 knife banter of all time
"It's ike I'm holding.... a rhinoceros." 🤣😅😆
“I just swallowed, that wasn’t good” & “I shouldn’t have swallowed” are the best lines in the whole video
crkt has been bringing out some great designs but They're not really worth the price and still using 8cr...
CRicKeT never changes
They use some d2 in some models
Or they upped to D2 finally and now they’re charging $125 for D2 😑 meanwhile boker and qsp is selling s35vn for $75
@@night5738 idk my squid has d2 for like $40 AND it has a smoke wash, a contoured micarta show scale and a brass backspacer
And assisted! So much assist this year. All of their designers need to go to Civivi and CJRB

Absolutely yalls best video in a while I'm a huge crkt fan and love when they come around!
LOL, my new green micarta Squid with D2 just came in the mail today.
Best product presentation so far. Kudos to CRKT. Love my M16 14ZLEK!
When are we getting the deets on Cold Steel's 2021 releases. They're late, sale be damned.

Now that was a knife banter episode!!!!
Never had a good flipper and said, "Gee, I wish this was assisted."
