Thanks for you interesting review, I enjoyed it very much. I got one of the first knifes of the TiNy Series and used it quite often. As a little tipp: Use the guard of the handle for batoning wood. It is of course made of solid titanium and will split bigger logs realy easy. This method is also recommended by the knifemakers and works very well. This little knife, ist incredible sturdy. I simply love it! Bye the way: The little screw on the sheath makes it possible to carry it is a neckknife. Greetings from Germany!
That is a sharp little knife! "Laser" does make it sound cooler. I like the educational approach to your delivery. Makes for a good impression and you present knowledgeable.
@@rurealist5907 I just got the UniTi with Survival blade in Magnacut and it's a beast. It's a production prototype so there could be aome minor changes in production ones.
I own two ug-tools knifes, a tiny and a compact survival. Great knifes, I use it for hunting, edc and bushcraft. I agree with everything you sayed. Those guys from ug-tools build great knifes and they heald me from my knive-virus😊
The Lionsteel T6 with K490 steel has become my favorite outdoor knife, but I think this Ug Tini would make an excellent EDC. I’m putting it on my next knife to get list. I definitely need to try this one out myself!😊 Great video! Love the close up demonstrations.👍🏻👍🏻
I stopped using my folders and just throw this thing in to my pocket. No lint, no dirt, easy cleaning... and weigs even less than most folders. Thanks!
@@frostys_bushcraft I’ve been carrying edc fixed blades for about seven years now. Lionsteel B35 is my current favorite, but I also really want to order a TJ Schwarz Overlander. Seems like a great edc in Magnacut.
Johnathan Cupp: I have fixed Overland from TJ Schwartz and it's incredibly sharp and capable design. I also have LionSteel T6 in K490 and I agree it's superior! I put it with JRE industries Bushcrafter sheath model U.its wonderful!
T6 is a big ol' knife... comparable with UniTi with Survival blade in size but probably twice the weight. One thing I live about Lionsteel is how neat and precise everything is. Really clean machining all over. Thanks!
With the UltiLink you can remove the sheath and rotate it full circle, so go from vertical orientation on your belt to horizontal carry and every other degree of setting.
True and it's a great system but with 30 degree increments not really the best to fine tune orientation without using tools. That being said, I love using it as it's quick and holds firm.
@@ssunfish I'm close to getting rid of most of my knives and leaving just the UG-Tools ones, the Skrama and maybe one or two other knives. TiNy is so good I don't even bother with folder anymore.
I could be wrong but when you were showing the lanyard holes in the butt of the handle,12:46 it seemed to show a tiny split or crack. I reviewed it and can't tell 100%. Perhaps you could take a look. Thanks, I love the channel, always informative, professional and relevant.
Hi, interesting review! Just for your information - surprisingly you can use the handle as a wedge for batoning. It is made for this type of stress and you can hammer on the handle with the baton.
CPM Magnacut has been out only two years. It is the only alloy designed to reduce or eliminate formation of Chromium carbides which are more large and irregular shaped carbides as well as not as durable as most other carbides and nitrides. Before no one tried or wanted to know how to reduce formation of Chromium carbides.
I keep a Spyderco Squeak with titanium scales in my truck as a quick package opener and utility knife. At -20F and below, it's unbearable without gloves. G10 and micarta actually work better in extreme cold. That said, I love titanium scales in 3 seasons barehanded and 1 with gloves.
@@adx442 Not directly comparable UG tools prints hollow! titanium handles. So not only has titanium itself low heat conductivity and capacity but what has even much less? Air. The handles volume is mostly air. Average wall thickness is only 1mm...and its still so strong that you can baton the handle through wood. with your spyderco you only got titanium scales around a stainless steel core which you will even directly touch I know from comparing that a mircata scale knife is much less comfortable in very cold weather. The only thing that comes close to a UG tools is my mora bushcraft but that has a rubber handles and is not fulltang. So less steel in the tang just like the UG tools has not much steel in the tang
@martinerhard8447 The Squeak sprint was full Ti scales (it's a slip joint, no liners). Interesting point about the new molding/welding tech, though. My sample size is just 1, but I do prefer Micarta or G10 with bare hands when it's very cold.
@@adx442 I am looking at a pic right now and on the backside (so where your hand touches it while you hold it) there seems to be stainless steel of slightly different color between two thick titanium scales. The clip and screws are also ss i suppose? One can see how little material is in these titanium handles if you compare the weights. The UG tools TiNy with its bigger blade is 80 grams while the squeak sprint is barely lighter at 70 grams What I want to so is...there is currently nothing else comparable on the market. You basically have to get one or trust reviews.
Yeah, it's a premium product with a premium price tag. There's lots of good budget options out there, even newer overpriced Moras are still a good option.
I looked at their knives, interesting designs; but price is high (Eu vs American dollars), which I am sure that both MagnaCut steel and titanium handles is why. And for me, having a full tang is very important consideration when choosing any fixed blade knife. With all that being said, any knife that can withstand being batoned through a pelvic bone is very impressive Vedran!
Well, premium product with a premium price tag. I'm actually not that big on full tangs... had a lot knives without it from Mora, Eka, Cold Steel, Benchmade etc. and never had a problem. Properly designed tail tang, like on Skrama or Ka-Bar's LHB will stand up to a lot of abuse. This is something else with a really short tang embeded in pute titanium so we'll see how it standa out long term.
A full tang is not needed the metal at the back of the handle is not doing anything for strength. A rat tail tang that has good radius at the blade and around 2/3 thickness at the blade down to 1/3 at the end of the end of the handle is probably as strong enough such that the tip would break before the handle would.
Oh, it really needs diamond sharpeners. They make an easy job of sharpening super steels like this one. Regular whetstones or even ceramic ones are just... a pita.
@Frosty's Bushcraft I was looking at a couple from Amazon was looking at a couple of old military surplus and 1 of condor but what ever your recommend my friend
I'm afraid I can't really say anything clever... I only ever used HelikonTex Numbat, BastionGear Frosty (the one I carry is my design) and tried HPG at one point.
Hello Frosty, for a knife that doesn't even have a "Full Tang" blade, the price is excessive in my opinion. There are better ones on the market for less money. Batons with a steel that is only a few centimeters worked into a plastic handle can not last long. Otherwise a nice video from you. Greetings from Germany, Selfmade. 👍
The handle is made from titanium with selective laser melting. The handle itself is tough enough to use as a wedge to split wood. It's basically tougher than any G10/fulltang handle out there. What knife do you suggest has better steel & ht for the price?
show me a knife of this size that is lighter, stronger, and built with this premium material! let's go ! great, no idea but the main thing is crap writing
@@frostys_bushcraft You're right. I didn't get the point about the titanium. Unfortunately, my English is too bad. It's been 43 years since school. I'm sorry that some felt offended here.
@@ssunfish I was all about camping but I'm kinda starting to like reviewing things so I'll probably just do what I feel like doing at the moment and have time for.

@@ssunfish love using both, the TiNy is my EDC and UniTi became my go-to for outdoors
One guy says he has three since he started using them and doesn't want any more knives, but his UG Tools knives.

Have you looked at the Extrak from Hogue? It’s “only” 63-64 HRC, but 0.9 oz lighter and full tang.
I've seen ot but... I dunno, looks like those extra thin handle scales were an afterthought. Doubt it's comfortable to use.

Yeah the fun thing with titanium is that the heat capacity and heat conductivity is very low and not like steel. So you wont get cold hands
