A sharp knife is a happy knife! Thanks so much for the kind words brother!
Great machine. Can one get your master pieces in Africa?
Ive bought several knives and always got the most amazing customer service and advice from Ridgerunner! Please support this amazing business!
Respect!
That Tepfer Armory Model XIII is amazing! I absolutely love mine. Def a masterpiece and supporting a great small business! Go get yours asap!
Dude I love your knives. So jealous of your skill.
You let him call us a West Coast State lol 🤮
East Coast men don't wear their wives' hats!
🤣
Your right we buy our own!
Right!
😂
Don't blame the West Coast. It is the Oregon influence. Those guys are nutters.
Sorry, us North Carolinians do NOT claim ANYTHING west coast. And yes, i speak for all North Carolinians. Disclaimer: Cary, Chapel Hill and Asheville... well, you can have them.😂
I think it’s a subtle hint that he thinks the poles have already shifted.
You forgot lumberton but, that’s a different subject
@@Gray_Bear_Review bahah, thats a different planet
What about Wilmington? I hear it not great.
What about Wilmington? I hear it not great.
You nailed that review on the model XIII. The original name was Persian fighter. But everyone hates Iran. Thank you for the time you took to do this video. All us NC boys really appreciate it. Get in touch with me through Jason and I’ll get you a scrap axe with the next batch I do.
Thank you, Kyle,
Yeah we hate who Israel tell us to hate right
People can hate a nations government, but still respect the skill of a good weapon. Especially a nation where knife fighting is still a very real thing. Persia has always been one of the greatest weapons makers in all of history.
@@beentheredonethat5908 facts. I love Iran. Most people in the US who buy knives do not unfortunately.
@@kyletepfer6438 are these available? I have not seen your stuff before. It looks excellent. I’m a blade maker and enthusiast and this thing looks 🤌🏻
A scandi grind is absolutely not a tough grind. They chip easily because they're so fine at the edge. A convex would be much stronger, but wouldn't bite into wood as well.
Scanti is pretty much only good for wood and general bushcrafting stuff, I tried to skin a deer with a scanti knife and it definitely couldn't compete with my normal case 366 or the yakut knife I've been messing around with for a few years now
Came for this comment. And WS said it so confidently. I didn't even finish the video.
An advantage is it gives you a large flat area to lay against a sharpening stone so it's a little more dummy proof than some grinds but toughness is not really the idea
I bought my son a microtech for his 13th birthday. He’s 15 now. Loves his knife. He has a large collection, but always has his microtech on him.
Wow, so many subtle design elements in that last knife, masterfully executed!
These guys at RidgeRunner are a 30 minute drive from me! It's great to be surrounded by so many awesome knife makers in NC👍
The handle on that combat knife is very reminiscent of a Shamshir or Kilij, and the blade is similar to a Jambiya, so you're right about the Arabic influence.
Yes. I teach sword fighting and is immediately what I saw. Then while looking at it more the lethality and purpose driven design is oh so desirable. I know NEED one ha ha ha
@@DD_Dietriech right? That knife is rad af!
As a North Carolinian, and on behalf of my great state, we respectfully decline the claim of being a “west coast state” due to states such as Oregon, and California.
not saying i disliked North Carolina but it seemed pretty liberal compared to Ohio
@@mikes.8823 only like 3 areas are. We don’t claim those areas lol
@@mikes.8823 it's definitely no south Carolina that's for sure
Florida here- hold my beer.
@@colsonallenpure1468growing up in North Raleigh I completely agree
How is that not a winkler?
Looking at his other knives and hawks, he's "heavily influenced" by winkler 😅
I was thinking the same thing.
Someone said he worked at Winkler
That’s what I thought. He’s just ripped off Winklers design.
Great company and an even better man. Can’t go wrong with supporting Ridge Runner Blades.
Cody, My home state of North Carolina can never be a west coast state...Says the east coast NC guy...long live the Proho 😂
It’s a wharncliffe not a wyclef, and you have had it before on the Gerber speedball
As a pastor who loves his Microtech, maybe I'll start doing that while I'm teaching...
That will keep the back rows awake.
American bladeworks is just a guy and his wife working out of their garage making some great american made and affordable knives
I've been carrying a chinese $15 dollar knife I got at a gas station or something for like 8 years now. Use it daily with no issues.
A knife is only as good as your sharpening skills. Most people buy expensive knives yet suck at sharpening.
@@VVrayth You forget than the type of steel is also very important.
You’re the reason why I bought a 940. I’m happy to see a new unboxing video from you.
4:31 Just so you know, the grooves on the spine of a blade for your thumb is "jimping", a choil is a cutout on the edge side of the blade that you can put your index finger in.
3:19 the gentleman who owns and makes the primitive woodsmen knives used to work at winkler knives. He left to pursue his own knife making company and with Daniel winklers blessing he took a lot of the information he learned there and applied it to his own knives. Especially the coating that is used on his blades I believe it’s the same makeup as what winkler uses on his blades I.e Daniel’s blessing of course. They are both located in Boone,NC and are both wonderful companies! I own winklers but haven’t ponied up for a primitive woodmens yet but I’m sure I will next time I’m in Boone for a mountains trip!
"If it gets a little dirt in it, it won't work."
**laughs in fixed blade**
OTF's make terrible utility knives. They can't hold the blade tightly and still work. Biggest reason I prefer side-folder automatics.
Those are rare issue secret knives. Issued for the Mini Sub's Frogman on inland lakes on the EAST Coast. The West coast uses a different version. Each Forest Service Seal team has these special knives as standard issue.
Looks a lot like the Winkler Belt Knife. Similar duty as well. Great looking tool.
My thoughts exactly. That knife was definitely influenced by the Winkler Belt Knife.
I think he use to work for winkler
Well no dig against this knife maker, I don’t think shapes are patented lol. I hope he keeps improving on the design and so fourth.
If that fluorescent bead is soft and feels like rubber, then I’m almost positive it’s a castration band for livestock. Looks exactly like one and tons of uses besides its intended purpose.
Just for the record that Glock knife is probably the best $30 knife ever made. Plain simple and if you had to use it to dig a hole it wouldn't break your heart.
As a foreigner residing in the Philippines I'm not allowed to possess weapons. The rules are so strict that technically, if you are into archery, the individual arrows have to be serial numbered and registered. Enforcement is a completely different issue but a foreigner is a guest in the country and damn well better act like one. At home however, an eight inch chefs knife is a cooking utensil regardless of how big a wound channel it can inflict. Most of the blade styles of Philippine fighting knives are available as yard tools. Historically, that's exactly what they are. Few people could afford a special knife just for combat. They used the same blade for jungle cutting and everything else.
I have a Tepfer Blade VERY similar to that. Bought it from him in person. Kyle is an amazing person. Love his blades.
The East Coast slander is wild honestly. There are so many incredible craftsmen out there. Lots of old fashioned skills and knowledge. East Coast Proho is a powerful man.
My daughter’s birthday is coming soon I think she would love that purple one thanks for showing it.
There's nothing wrong with a Glock field knife.
It's just like a Glock pistol.
You don't have to care about it, or do anything more than basic maintenance on it. It's going to work every time you need it to work.
Glad to see you came to your senses and recognized NC as west coast.
That distal taper IS showing off in the sense that it takes genuine skill to forge it but it also improves the balance.
Not being a jerk, but that is most likely cut from a sheet of steel,.machine CNC, ground down, and not forged. Not many knives are actually forged... That's for TV.
Props to NC maaaan!
Watch any of Ridgerunner’s unboxings, they are all Fizz makers! So many of those hand made knives are just gorgeous.
It’s a warncliff 😮
Wharncliffe
Tepfer Knife -
As a person who knows Western and ME combat knife systems.
From Marine Reconnaissance Kabar to Silat and Kali karambit.
This knife seems to me as best of W versus East.
Looking more like Golok Keris, with the sweeping belly and semi turned up tang with the knobbed back end to prevent slippage, especially when wet.
During combative movements. Light yet devastatingly sharp.
Would work well also, as a utility ability for fishing ,hunting, is probably the best designed knife I have seen in a long, long time.
Appears to be extremely dexterous when in the hand yet does not have the ring hole as a karambit but sufficient knob to counter grip. Or to not lose a finger from attempt disarm.
Thanks for bringing this knife to light.
I carry a Benchmade Infidel OTF 3300, it's a great all-rounder, very capable and strong.
I carry either a Benchmade auto Stryker or a Gerber 06 Auto. Both are tied for my favorite.
@@Turkeythigh420
Nice 👍
That last blade needed no presentation. It speaks for itself.
I've been wanting a few new knives. I'll be looking up those for sure
Oh my. That purple microtech is absolutely beautiful with the black anodized blade and window breaker on the back. I'm definitely picking one up.
I'm new to the knife world, and after buying a few, I can definitely say that I'm a fan of automatics over flippers. I recently purchased a Cobratec Ryker (I believe that's the name) and it has been my standard since. I'll follow the links provided and see if there's anything up my alley on his site!
Love the thickness of the tang, shows that it's battle ready imo
@wranglerstar thank you for recognizing NC as a great place. I’m a native to NC and love this state. We do have the best knives!
I have a Winkler Belt Knife with the tire rubber scales. Very similar design. That blade must feel amazing in hand
I’ve had my eyes on one of those bush crafters for a while now. I live close to Primitive Woodsman in the mountains of Nc. His knives are amazing.
It is a "Tepfer Armory". Looks pretty useful...
I gave you a thumbs up just for the remark you made about playing with the knife in church! LOL! Been there, done that!
940 is still the favorite! Some come close but not quite! Thanks Cody
Tepher makes excellent knives, as do Dan Winkler and Jason Knight.
That last one looks like a perfect boning and quartering knife
Nice! It's a time proven design going back hundreds of years. Even that distally tapered tang is a feature of swords. Helps with balance. As a custom blade maker myself I really appreciate those little touches like that.
You can’t fool me, you’re GarandThumbs dad 😄
Sootch is his Dad.
Well done Mr. Barr!
A sharp knife fidget device alone is funny enough but doing in church sounds like a bit in a Naked Gun movie lol
I carry a benchmade 940 Osborne as well! A classic.
Sweet knives! Very kind and generous of the fella to send all that to you. Love all the knives but especially the last knife, meant for utility and crazy efficient at eliminating any threat that stands before you, if you know what I mean.
Well I'll be. I'm buying a new knife or two today. I was just about to order from BladeHQ.
I'll check out Ridge Runner.
Bought all of my Winkler knives from Ridge Runner… great site!
You are going to win the man that's dies with the most toys!
6:37. “Not going to get autistic ‘. I’m dying over here
After 2 decades plus, as a combat viable straight up "go to war" knife. My primary is and has been the Buck Nighthawk. It had just recently been given the green light as an option for the Seal teams to choose to carry when I was attending BUD/s. Mine has been unbreakable after close to 30 years now and has proven itself through thick and thin. After some serious work with a Gerber ceramic sharpener back then it has kept a dangerously sharp edge that cut me to the bone with once. One slip was all it took.
What do you recommend for hoses for proho fire kit? Got 6 of the sprinklers like you have with bases and 2 gas 2-stroke water pumps. Pumps can use 1" or ght. Thinking toy hoses but not sure the best amount to get
I'm surprised and happy to see you are a 940 guy. That thing has some wear to it and daily use.
Can Jason create a Wranglerstar blade???? Makers mark and all?? Take my money now
I always wore a Spyderco Delica jn serrated edge around my neck when rock climbing, backpacking & offshore fishing because it’s secure and easier to get to then my pocket.
If NC is classified as a west coast state then im a west coast man
correct,
@@wranglerstar honored
Makes you a California liberal.
North Carolina men are built different.
Welcome, brother! Here is your gift basket. It has smoked salmon that has been smoked with alder wood, hazelnuts, marionberry jam, some smoked tritip, a Gerber pocket knife, and a bottle of chardonnay from one of our many vineyards in the Willamette Valley. Enjoy!
I am a huge fan of sheep foot blades so I carry a Kizer on me for EDC. Well done Jason
Jason Barr knows his knives!
He gets to the point!
Okay I will see myself out now 😂
Just recently picked up a tops knives Armado 6.5 and it gives me similar vibes to this. Very beefy, ultilitarian, but can also be used as a combat knife. A little on the larger side but the reviews of it dont lie.
I thought it was expensive, when I paid $155 for my knife on sale. My knife is made in the USA. The whole knife is one solid tang knife. The tang is thick.
Absolutely beautiful pieces Thanks for sharing 🙏
Looks like Winkler, walks like Winkler, quacks like Winkler
That tactical knife reminds me of a kukori style knife. I really like it
“I’m not going to get all autistic about it” 😂😂 that was vary relatable
that small bushcraft knife is the exact one i need even though i didnt know it existed until now.
I may have found two new knives to add to my collection, Tepfer model 13 and a Woodsman Foxfire!! both works of art.
Nice selection of knives. Looking forward to hearing more reports after extended use. The American Blade Works folder blade style is a Wharncliffe, not a Wycliff. Also, it's not difficult to taper a tang. It's no more difficult than tapering the blade, which is something every bladesmith can do. But it does take some skill to shape and attach scales to a tang tapered in thickness.
I love the old school style vids!
That blade looks and awful lot like one of MS Daniel Winkler's blades. No doubt it will serve you well!
I like to support North Carolina knife companies. I brought a bunch of knives home from gun shows when I found out that it’s a local knife maker. I think the last two that I’ve bought were serendipity forge and another out the front knife company called hellcat tactical.
Nice Cody! i just bought my wife a Microtech Mini Hera II in that exact same color set, i carry a combat Troodon Gen III
LOVE that purple! i have a red ultratech with a two toned black drop-point blade
First impression of the “combat” knife is its similar to a Winkler knife.
You may not be a knife collector, but what you are is a knife connoisseur. Yes, connoisseur implies some amount of expert knowledge on a subject. Your expert knowledge, as a ProHo, is in a knife's usefulness and suitability to your intended use case.
He does not have expert knowledge misnaming a wharncliffe
Them switch blades could literally get me 4 years in prison here in the uk
Sucks being a subject.
Time to spill more tea? 🇺🇲🇺🇲🤙✌️
In the UK, possession of an offensive opinion can get you the same.
suffering a heat wave too over here in Canada eh .. the wide continuous curve to the edge makes this a great knife. Also the way the point is shaped upward above the angle of the handle makes it effortless from point A the waist ...to point B ...the gut.
The small fixed blades work well appendix carry. Look up the clinch pick, Shivworks and Craig Douglas for a host of ideas on how that knife can be utilized.
Black Scout Street Pick is a nice defensive knife that is usually carried appendix
"I'm not gonna get all autistic about it..." too funny.
Funny thing I got an Osborne 940 years ago for Fathers Day, because you recommended it, and I see we have the same color Microtech, but mine is double edged. Now my wife has been wanting a purple version of mine lately just like your wife's.😂
Very nice knife! What’s the watch? I kept trying to positively identify it, but couldn’t get a good shot.
Not sure if its legal in your state but the Reate Exo seems like a pretty bomb proof “folding knife”, may be worth checking out!
No, that's the Italian who make the greatest combat knives in the world.
The problem I have with the knife is that you cannot just grab the combat knife compatibly any angle.
Learned long ago to not worry about gutting anything. Why do I need to disturb a great bag to hold all the innards.
That combat knife looks like the old timer sharp finger
Looks like Overton got that otf cleaned up nice
If you like that fixed blade you should look into a Winkler knifes they are the best all around knifes he has recently linked up with case knives I don't know if it's a good or a bad thing
Beloved 🙌

As a long time fan of your channel and I know it’s one more thing to do but I think the wranglerstar war band should start a once a week podcast. When you said how you and the war band get together and talk about your edc I thought how I’d like to hear that conversation.
I think it’d be good for young men learning what the purpose of a “warband” is and how important the quality of these people are.
Especially for the coming struggle. 🍻
