    The Cormorant does look like the bird and isn't far off from the Spyderco Smock. I can't wait for mine to arrive! I love fidget knives and it looks like fidget heaven! I wish there were more reviews of it out there. I think the x's will look good being red when I dye them. Love your videos man.

    • @tombrown8800
      @tombrown8800 3 года назад

      I bet it would like great with those Xs dyed red ! Knaf Sergeant, & I think Luv Them Knives checked it out. As an aside, I once knew a Brian Baker, not you of course.

    • @TheKnifeBeater

  • @Jaybird165
    @Jaybird165 3 года назад +1

  • @cdigman
    @cdigman 3 года назад +2

    Instead of swapping the scales on the Feldspar, I think it may be a prime candidate for a dye job! BladeHQ has a very interesting video on how to do it, I’ve never done it myself, but their results looked great!

    @manifestgtr 3 года назад +1

    Ranging from $15-80, this is my “can’t go wrong” list, starting with the cheapest....Opinel #7 carbon ($15, old school but awesome, you can make them sharp enough to cut atoms), cjrb ria and feldspar ($35ish, depending on your taste...they’re both incredible), civivi odium ($50, feels like a $200 knife, good D2), spyderco dragonfly 2 ($80 and worth every penny). For fixed blade fans, the mora classic line is almost perfection. They’re $30, stupid easy to sharpen and they’ll survive the apocalypse.

    I just bought a Kubey(Dugu KU159 model) with Aus10 steel and Carbon Fiber handles.Its just beautiful.I paid around $60 dollars for it and the action -both on the opening flip to the closing action is just about the best and smoothest I have experienced.Even compared with my more expensive knives.

  • @pewpew7711
    @pewpew7711 3 года назад +2

    I've had my eafengrow 950 for a couple months and mine is in jade but i took it apart and messed with the omega springs to make it easy to use. I can unlock it with just my thumb

    • @matthewadler1329
      @matthewadler1329 3 года назад

      Just be careful. Those springs are comprised now. Not saying they will break on you, it's just more likely once you bend em. Omega springs used to be hard to come by...not sure if that's still the case. I tried taking out one spring, and leaving one in, and it actually worked pretty well.

    • @TheKnifeBeater

    Hey Jay hate to disagree with you but I've been eyeing that Cormorant since I first saw it, wish it was a smidge longer. You introduced me to 2 brands that I never heard of. So many now I can't finance 2 or 3 of every brand ha ha.

    • @TheKnifeBeater
      @TheKnifeBeater  3 года назад

      No it's okay Tom, I welcome your opinion, it helps give me a different perspective. I don't think I explained myself very well in the video because I do like the Cormorant, it cuts well and the action is great. I'm just not a fan of the blade shape.

    • @TheKnifeBeater

    @Khronokai 3 года назад

    Oh sir... You did NOT sell that IKIV well enough! I got the same design and it wasn't until I got past the bling that I found the ergos were great for how angular and ugly it is. AND, the best part is your thumb slides down the scale to wedge under the thumb stud. From there it's natural to flick out and that thing flicks out authoritatively, it's really satisfying! I had to keep from playing with the axis lock first to truly appreciate it!

    Im always concerned about buying a knife on Amazon. For example... I have seen Cold steel ad-15s on there that are no doubt knockoffs. Out of curiosity I went onto Aliexpress and found the same ad-10 knife on there for dirt cheep. Obviously not the real deal. My thinking is that someone is getting these in bulk and selling them on amazon.

    • @TheKnifeBeater
      @TheKnifeBeater  3 года назад +1

      No. Most button locks have an internal cylinder called a plunger that moves to unlock the blade. A liner lock uses a thin piece of metal for the lock bar that is part of the liner, which is why it's called a liner lock. Hope this helps Louis.
