Interesting design! I've all but abandoned carrying cash, but I definitely see this new piece bridging the gap for a lot of people who couldn't get into the minimalist card-focused wallets Trayvax has to offer.
Just received a black one today in the mail. Very nice quality wallet. Awesome it’s made in the USA about 50 miles from me. I’ve had a tri-fold leather wallet for the last 12 years so I decided to upgrade. Glad I did.
I’ve had an ascent for years now and this new one looks solid but my ascent is still perfect (with nice patina) so it’s hard to replace it! Trayvax products are top notch.
This looks pretty cool! One of the main reasons I've hesitated to buy a Trayvax wallet is because of how cash is held. I think I'm going to pick one of these up once they release it with the black metal color.
I have the contour for already 5 years. The reason I chose the contour is because I don’t carry cash most of the time and the fact that the wallet is smaller than your standard pocket wallet made to carry bills.
I have an element, been my go-to for several years and love it. So with say 9 cards and 9 bills, how does the size of the venture compare to the element?
How would this wallet be in the back pocket? I've got the OG still. Wanting to get another Trayvax bc the velcro back is falling apart. Also the metal frame is so bent up from using it as a pry bar and screw driver it is no longer comfortable to sit on.
I know video is older.talon I use the same travax lanyard on my keys and put them in back pocket..but what do you do when you sit down?do you just take them out of your pocket?hope you see this.thank you
I’ve had my element for close to 7 years now it’s been through 3 deployments haven’t changed wallets one time had to warranty it one time for the leather tearing around the button closure coulda got another year or 2 out of it but with a warranty like there’s why not get a new one put on I keep wanting to get a different one of their wallets but old faithful just won’t let me down I wish they would come out with a AirTag holder like ridge has I have a janky leather holder I cut a slit in and threaded on the strap that has held up for about 4 months now but I’d like something that looks a little more intentional
Ive bought many wallets from Trayvax and the trek knife. The knife broke and I had a new one shipped and that knife was dull as hell. they couldn't offer me a refund because they didn't have record of me buying anything. So much for a 65 year warranty
Dig the Trayvax leather … I have been carrying the Ascent for a while & hooked my son up w/the Element … this one might be a contender but the quality on these things are so top notch, hard to think of switching … great review!
I’ve been looking at getting a new wallet and I’ve always had a bifold wallet and keep it in my back pocket. I keep a lot of other things in my front pockets but I’ve been thinking about getting a small Fanny pack/crossbody pack so I can take that with me and keep my pockets free of crap and then just carry a front pocket wallet. I’ve been looking at Trayvax wallets and I love that they’re “heirloom quality”, made in the USA and are minimalist. I’m just worried that I’d just spend the money and hate it and then I’m stuck with it because they aren’t cheap, atleast for me. I really like the Element Wallet, if I did get one of their wallets I think that’s the one I’d get in the Mississippi Mud. I’d also have to get the wallet comb and I can’t forget about copping the Talon Carabiner multi tool! Maybe I’ll just have to bite the bullet and get them for myself for a personal Christmas gift. Love the content Talon, keep up the amazing work and I hope to meet you one day at a van get together, because I GOT A VAN!!! And I hope to start traveling next spring! 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼
Looks just about perfect. I’ve hesitated to switch to the other Trayvax wallets you’ve reviewed over the years for this very reason. I think I’ll try this one though.
I’ve used my contour since 2017, loved it so much I got a second one which is still unused. The only complaint I have is folding bills when I get change at the register, very annoying. This new venture wallet is looking more functional and pretty sleek. Am def buying it
I've been using the original V 1.0 for a number of years. It is finally starting to show some serious wear. I am thinking of getting a new one. Will this fit comfortably in your front pocket? I like the idea of not being able to see cash from the outside of the wallet. I only carry emergency cash. I don't carry very many bills, but I do carry about a dozen cards consistently. I think I know based on the video, but which one is your favorite?
Would love a new element that can carry a tad bit more. The metal on the element would make a good self defense weapon if needed. Right across the bridge of someones nose.
I’ve been using the element for a few years now. I absolutely love it. But am considering another. What makes you always come back to the contour over everything else?
I'm curious, how do some people have so many cards they have to carry? Driver license, 1 debit, 1 credit, key card for work/employee ID. What else is there to carry in your wallet besides cash?
@@RedNeck_Zeus dude Im a bartender. Ive seen people sift through 20+ cards looking for one to pay with...I think it's mostly people with way too manh maxed out credit cards.
@@mrpipps90 too many maxed out credit cards AND rewards cards for stores they only visited once and probably never will again (many that out of business)
Hey Talon, can you please ask someone over at Trayvax to bring back orange color options for their products? I really love the quick recognition of orange. And what's the latest on the 2 Feathers Workhorse Tanto??? Thanks bud.
Just saw you at Groove Toyota in CO. Looked like you were doing a bit of work on your computer so didn't want to bother you. I got a chance to see your Tacoma from afar before it went in for service. Looks sick. I saw a bunch of the staff looking it up and down too.
I still have my Original as well with the whistle attachment when they still had it available as an accessory. I received their new release email, and I do have to say that it’s an interesting piece. I have to ask though, are you carrying the Venture in the front pocket or rear?
@@TalonSei cool to hear cuz the video I saw, he said it was recommended more as a back pocket carry, & looking at the metal frame, it would probably be problematic to say the least. Thanks for that reply though, will definitely give it serious thought.
@@TalonSei thank you for clarification. I have the Original with the high roller band, Ascent,Contour brass,Renegade. Sold the Element to my co-worker after I had the leather re-done on it. Excellent heirloom warranty. Got the Keychain and Original carabiner. Been looking at the accessories more and was interested in this Venture cause of the cash access feature. Just hard to put down the Contour. Venture does look nice though.
Still waiting on Trayvax to make an all leather minimal wallet. I don’t like the metal, especially because my wallet sometimes ends up in the same pocket as my phone.
I just ordered the accent yesterday and used your discount code, and you can either chose to apply the discount code or get free shipping, you can’t get both, that’s really annoying of them, you basically save like 1-2 dollars with the discount code, and if you have free shipping if your order is over $59, and then you apply a discount code, they take off free shipping and charge you $5, you basically don’t save anything, really really messed up and annoying on their part.
Hi, Mr. Nobody. Thank you for bringing up this concern. The only way the free shipping would get stripped away is if the discount dropped the total order below $59. That shouldn't be the case with the Venture's price point. $59 is our magical number for free shipping. If you are having issues at the cart with this, we would love to help you out. Please feel free to email support@trayvax.com if you need our assistance. We're here to help! - Shon
@@customerserviceteam866 I bought the accent wallet and it was $59 originally, and then it I had free shipping, but then when I added the talon10 discount, the free shipping went away and then was $5…
❤️🧡💛💚💙 Yo Dawg… Have Ya Ever Tried The Minimalist Waller Called The “Grp6” ??? ??? ??? Personally I Am Always A Big Die Hard Fan Of The Biker/Trucker Chain Wallets, But Just Today I Came Across Many Tactical Minimalist Chain Wallets & Wallets Will Tactical Style Careeners… That’s Totally Far Out Super Awesome, Dude…
Although the design of the trayvax venture is interesting it more of a traditional style than minimal wallet because when fully loaded it becomes like a less fat fat wallet with the same height and width of a traditional wallet so it can't be considered as a downsized wallet as the only way you can carry it is a back pocket so you still feel like you are sitting on a small slightly more squashed animal or a jacket pocket or I suppose a leg pocket if you wear combat Or cargo trousers.

I got almost all of trayvax wallets. They are all very good. But the AXIS .... hands down for me, their best. It's a shame they stopped producing it.
I’ve had an ascent for years now and this new one looks solid but my ascent is still perfect (with nice patina) so it’s hard to replace it! Trayvax products are top notch.
This looks pretty cool! One of the main reasons I've hesitated to buy a Trayvax wallet is because of how cash is held. I think I'm going to pick one of these up once they release it with the black metal color.
Right now I been switching back and forth from the contour to the summit, but this looks like a great Father’s Day gift for my pops.
I have the contour for already 5 years. The reason I chose the contour is because I don’t carry cash most of the time and the fact that the wallet is smaller than your standard pocket wallet made to carry bills.

Great question. It's not intended for the back pocket. Our designer built it with the front pocket in mind. - Shon
@@customerserviceteam866 Thanks for the feedback Shon. I think I'm going to go with the Contour. Just wish that brass wasn't so expensive.
@@aref4i Brass adds up pretty fast. We get it. Glad we could be of help--and thanks for sticking with the Trayvax family! - Shon

I got the armored summit a couple of years ago and it’s great, but the day the new one came out I immediately bought it. It’ll be a great upgrade
I own the contour and element, and convinced my Boss to gift the contour to 12 lucky employees of the month 😂 love my contour wallet and belts 😊
Bought a black on black summit 2 years ago because of your recommendation! All the way to Holland 🇳🇱 and still love it

Nice video! When's the 2022 EDC update coming? (P.S. you should really check out the Kunwu Tao, beast of a knife)
You definitely turned me on to Trayvax. I have no regrets.

Did you get one?
A lot of stores and restaurants here in Honolulu still only deal in cash (Chinatown) so I have a Recycled Firefighter bifold wallet with a cash band.
Do you still need the rfid blocker with the wallet to block signals ?

@@TalonSei I thought your favorite would be the contour. Thank you for responding so quickly!
Would love a new element that can carry a tad bit more. The metal on the element would make a good self defense weapon if needed. Right across the bridge of someones nose.
I’ve been using the element for a few years now. I absolutely love it. But am considering another. What makes you always come back to the contour over everything else?
I think just the small footprint and minimal design
I'm curious, how do some people have so many cards they have to carry? Driver license, 1 debit, 1 credit, key card for work/employee ID. What else is there to carry in your wallet besides cash?
And a lot of people use their phones nowadays to pay for things with whatever debit/credit account they want.
ID, business credit, personal credit, debit, CCW permit, shift comb, Costco card.
@@TalonSei oh yeah that makes, but I've seen much worse.

I been rocking the trayvax contour for a couple years now. I'm a cash guy so I deff just ordered one of these 🤘🏼
Venture TS special edition coming soon? If not, I'll stick to my ascent thx! Looks sweet though
Looks great! How does it feel weight wise compared to the contour?
3.34oz so feels just a little bit heavier than the contour
if you want an advice from somebody who is just a customer and not a tester:
Get one.
Those wallets are insanly cool and usable.
Hey Talon, can you please ask someone over at Trayvax to bring back orange color options for their products? I really love the quick recognition of orange. And what's the latest on the 2 Feathers Workhorse Tanto??? Thanks bud.
They are built like tanks !👍 Thanks for the review.
I’ve wanted a Trayvax wallet for years but never got one because I tend to need to carry cash. This wallet speaks to me on a personal level
I knew a talon video on this wallet was coming!
hows the magnet on the flap? at any point did it seem like it would flop open?
Just recently watched the video of you showing this to Zack in a pocket dump. Definitely looked like badass wallet

Haha thanks man, I was working on Fridays video! Come say hi next time 👊🏻
Still rocking the TS Ascent. Any chance you'll be doing anymore collaboration pieces with them?
There’s a good chance it can happen. Just gotta think of what I want to make!
Interested in the summit notebook for sure. Any experience with that wallet?
Had one awhile ago but didn’t use it a whole lot so I gave it to a subscriber
Thanks for the review, Talon! - Shon
Just ordered mine this morning!!
Yo! Can yr discount code use for contour?
Yessir. Good for anything on the site 👍🏻
@@TalonSei thanks Talon!
I still have my Original as well with the whistle attachment when they still had it available as an accessory. I received their new release email, and I do have to say that it’s an interesting piece. I have to ask though, are you carrying the Venture in the front pocket or rear?
Front pocket always

It would be nice to do a size comparison to the other Trayvax wallets when you do your update. Thanks.
Will it hold Canadian dollars which are slightly larger than the US dollars?
Yes it will
@@TalonSei Thanks.
Been carrying the Summit for close to 3 years now.
Good video I like the idea of a traditional billfold and 109$ is still cheaper than a ridge wallet!
Less than 100 with my code 😏
Can the Trayvax comb fit in the hidden single card spot in the inside vs being in the front compartment of wallet?
Yes
@@TalonSei thank you for clarification. I have the Original with the high roller band, Ascent,Contour brass,Renegade. Sold the Element to my co-worker after I had the leather re-done on it.

What wallet are you carrying know ?
Will the new wallet fit in the front pocket like their other wallets

Contour > ascent
@@ermal6157 Contour is really good. Ain't gonna lie. 👍
@@ermal6157 it’s all about personal preference.
I find myself often swapping between my Contour and TS collab one
The best one is the Element
Ah I would love to grab this wallet but it doesn't hold Canadian currency they stick out so much
I wish Trayvax would make a wallet that has slots for a pen, flashlight or utility blade etc.

I carry the one on the left..
The ascent is the mvp. That thing is gonna outlast me.
Agreed haha those are bombproof
How much does it cost
$109 on the Trayvax website, use the discount code in the description for 10% off
That looks good but I got myself an open sea leather wallet and really like it
So VENTURE OR CONTOUR ?????
Venture if you like having cash. I hardly ever do so I will probably end up back on the contour in the future.
Contour is still better
Cool wallet, but with all those ones, it looked like you were off to the strippers. Just saying. Take care bro.
