I wanted to respond to your apology video, but you turned comments off on that one.

This guy has always been a shady dude. Metal Complex endorsed him as well. He needs to get away from *all* of the knife community. His apology video was pathetic. He couldn't even give a legitimate reason to *WHY* he had been doing this. For the simple fact he wouldn't get caught?? I really hope he sold off all his knives & trys yea spoons or something. He really took advantage of a great community, apparently just for the hell of it. Because he offered absolutely no closure to the people he fu*ked for so long. Shame on him. He also thought he was "so big" that they would just be rumors that would be shook off within a few days. Nope.

The roughness of the scales on my rsk large folder bugged me too, and started to tear up my pants a bit, so I took sandpaper to it and knocked the edges down a bit.

That is very slicey indeed. I've had my eye on this one since it was released. I have only a few fixed blades and they are all smaller, more pocket-adjacent than overbuilt tactical nonsense. Thanks for the review!
@@Shhhh__LL I've been thinking long and hard about your responses here and the only thing I can come up with is that you don't understand how time works. You might not realize that humans perceive time in a linear fashion and that when a comment is left on a video in what we call "The Present" the person who made it cannot yet know what events have not yet happened in what we call "The Future." So when someone like you comes along and reads a comment that is now considered to have been written before "The Present" that is what humans call "The Past." If you're the kind of entity who does not understand these concepts, then it's easy to see why you would reply to my comment, which I left in "The Past" before certain events transpired ("The Future" from my perspective). Maybe this helps you understand time a bit more and why your reply to my original comment was so amazingly stupid.
Good vid Slicey for a fixed blade. I think it's an ok knife but at that price there's too much competition and better blades for that price. So it's too pricey for what it is.😁👍
I carry fixed blades everyday. I didn't buy that knife for 2 reasons. Slightly to large for EDC and that sheath. I don't mind getting a aftermarket sheath but I didn't find anything available for the knife. Custom sheaths go up in price. A knife has to come with at least a usable sheath for me to try the knife out before I spend more money on it. That sheath is really bad.
I just found out about the scandalous activity- but honestly, it’s been a year. If you’ve made things right it’s time to get back on the horse. I didn’t come here for entertainment or for buying anything from you. I still appreciate your insight on knives. I don’t patron anybody on RUclips… and I never win when I enter contests. I do, however, research the shite out of a blade before I go after it. You started reviewing knives because you love them. People buy nice knives because they love them. Don’t stop reviewing them. Thanks.
The alien knives tutank has caught my eye, mc did one couple weeks ago unboxing and I liked the way it looked and size, not big on carrying one but I wanna change my opinion on that, I want one I can place in my pocket hate hanging stuff on my side, so I suggest fixed blade that with a sheath could be easy Carry in the pocket for edc use, and protech sbr fixed seams interesting as well
Slicey, I’ve been a big fan of your channel but I don’t have any clue what’s going on. Your apology seemed genuine enough but my recommendation is don’t run away and hide from it. Don’t block comments. Only bad things will come from that. This is only going to make people more curious, create more drama, and people are still going to find out anyway. It’s also a bad look because it comes off as unrepentant and deciding to leave things as they are rather than correcting them. When it comes to scams, the scammer often just disappears and people are often left to dry. Don’t let people think that or feel that. I hope everything can get worked out soon. Love your reviews man.
@@SRVandDtrouble I just bought my first knife from a random stranger on Best Damn EDC discord. I was pleaseantly surprised by how friendly and fast the seller was. For the most part our knife community isnt that big but its a very good positive community. Which makes it all worse that Slicey took advantage of other peoples kindness and support. How pathetic is that. He literally had his youtube channel doing well and he couldve just kept growing and getting free knives for reviews and selling, but he decided to cash out for a couple thousand bucks. What a loser POS
He didn't pay multiple people for services performed (Articles written), and various knife forums are EXPLODING with people who claim he sold them knives and never shipped them.

It's not a few isolated incidents, it' a long term pattern of behavior that indicates a fundamentally dishonest person.
I am a big fan of fixed blades. I have probably 3 fixed blades for every folder in my collection. for the $200 price tag, I would expect either kydex or leather, preferably with a dangler option. I am not trying to insult Doug Ritter, but if you want to get a similar sized knife, with outstanding quality, Esee and Tops bot have options that are outstanding and have better carry options. one suggestion, if you are going to review fixed blades in the future, getting some B roll outside, doing knife tasks would up really help with the depth of the review. this blade looks like it would handle notching, and batoning very well, and rope/paracord cutting ( the finish on the end of the cord is as important as the speed and ease of cutting for a lot of outdoors people like me) other than that, not a bad job reviewing for something outside of your bailiwick
Yeah... I'm thinking about changing up the format a bit, but not sure I'll be doing all that stuff. Maybe SOME of it. Makes the videos literally 5-6 times the amount of time to make.
@@SliceyDicey I hear you. the videos my son and I make for our channel take a lot of effort, with my limited mobility, and lack of a vehicle to carry my chair, it is a pain to get to the woods. it can be a 4-5 hour day to get a 45 min video with some action shots of cutting and such.
Maybe check out Armatus Carry Kydex Sheaths. He made me 2 super slick, durable ones for my Nyala and a custom skinning/hunting fixed blade I got as a gift. They came out great and have put them thru their paces hunting.
Ok Slicyman what U did wrong was not mail that great hunk a steel to me for early Xmas. Ohbuhaha. 😜 dreams sometimes do come true as I write this from my hospital bed after back surgery.
I love your reviews. I love Hogue. Likewise, Senior Ritter. But this is one of the ugliest fixed blade profiles my peepers have ever peeped. Also… THE PRICE!!!
Good review. For the future consider fixed blades carried around the neck, in pocket and those fancy personal steak knives (oh wait those are folders) I know 2 different guys that own that Ritter and both ordered custom sheaths without ever using the original one. One was in kydex and the other was in boltaron I think.
Hey, man, I just wanted to let you know you have my support. I just saw your most recent video and you have my support. I don't know what all is going on in your life but I hope it all works out and I'll be praying for you.
Easy to support when you weren't one of the people he scammed and are still waiting on a knife bought 6 months ago. This behavior makes the knife community look bad.
@Stutterin` Bob that's a ridiculous comment. He stated he wasn't really sure what was going on. I would be furious to if I got screwed out of something but I'm just now learning would always happening and I would have left a comment saying that he had my support at first. I stepped away from the knife Community months ago and I'm checking back now and I'm just now learning what's happened. I don't know if this stuff was done through malice or if he had a lot going on in his life. Nowadays everybody wants to burn somebody at the stake without giving them a chance to make it right. We'll see if he makes it right. At this point he still has my support because I followed him for a long time and I always liked him. He would lose my support if he didn't try to make things right. People seem to forget that we're all human and none of us are perfect

I do not believe that cancel culture is productive and I believe people that keep that spirit alive in the world need to look inward very deep at themselves. EVERYONE makes big mistakes in life. EVERYONE! With that said, this is a huge mistake and people have every right to be upset. Also, everyone should be forgiven at some point especially if there is true change. It’s simple, Slicey needs to make this right with everyone he wronged. Also, I believe transparency is important to explain to everyone why this happened. The only way you can truly change is to air all of the dirty laundry, admit the faults, and turn away from those actions. I’ve learned repentance is to completely turn away from the wrong and in doing so this creates a transformation. If at some point you truly repent I know there will be many who stand behind you. There’s a lot of work to be done. Don’t ever give up! There is forgiveness to be had!
Scammers are the worst of the worst in this community. Sure eventually he should be forgiven but he should no longer use his platform to do giveaways, sell knives, or take donations for a website thats never going to happen. He's proven he can't handle that responsibly over the past couple years.
@@oldaccount7463 These are all valid points and I’m not going to say you are wrong. However, I will say that cancel culture is wrong. Completely wrong. In fact, I’d rather live in a world with scammers and no cancel culture than a world without scammers but full of cancel culture. The problem I face is our current world is full of both…pretty sad. Don’t see it changing anytime soon
@@rob10ring Sure he can stay in the community. But the accepting knives from companies & doing fake giveaways, accepting money for a website that will never come, and not delivering on knives he sold needs to stop. Scammers are ruining the knife community.
Any fool can criticize, complain, and condemn-and most fools do. But it takes character and self-control to be understanding and forgiving. Remember, when you judge you define yourself, not the one your judging. You never know the whole story. Everyone is in earth school. I find no fault with you Brian. Hang in there. God loves you.
Yeah, all that turn the other cheek shit doesn’t do a thing for me. This guy is a con artist. Con is short for confidence man. Meaning he gains people’s confidence, in order to take them for something they didn’t intend to give him… any fool can walk through life pretending it’s all sunshine and rainbows, and blowing himself over how intelligent and forgiving he is. But you’re just a mark for con men like Brian so congrats
God loves him, but He hates sin. Stealing is a mortal sin, a grave action that is committed in full knowledge of its gravity and with the full consent of the sinner's will. Such a sin cuts the sinner off from God's sanctifying grace. The man is a thief and got caught and in our society he has to pay a price.
theres a difference between not shipping one or two knives then not shipping a bunch of knives to various ppl. One mistake is like forgetting to send ONE knife. he purposely tried to scam, thats not a mistake. thats somethign he did on purpose
@@Checkmate1954 Not only is it a sin, but its more disgusting that he is doing this to people who supported him. Literally people who donated money for him to acheive his dreams and he just shits all over them. sickening
He is a great guy. He made mistakes. He is going to make things right. Let his actions prove who he is. Character is seen when someone admits their failures and does what they need to do to make things right. Let’s see what he makes happen. No one here is a perfect person. Humanity is not a surprise. Remember this. Support each other. Give our Brother a chance.
He's scammed people over a year by not shipping knives he sold. Also the past year he has had dozens of streams where he is happy to take our donations. We don't need this behavior in the community. Its easy to forgive when you weren't the one effected and aren't waiting for a knife you bought 6 months ago.
@@jumpkeys that doesnt even matter. The fact that he wasnt sending knives out to the people that supported him is sickening. We let his actions prove who he is. He has been doing this for awhile.

@@Shhhh__LL I thank you for showing everyone you know how to build a strawman but not being smart enough to engage in civil conversation.
@@Shhhh__LL I've been thinking long and hard about your responses here and the only thing I can come up with is that you don't understand how time works. You might not realize that humans perceive time in a linear fashion and that when a comment is left on a video in what we call "The Present" the person who made it cannot yet know what events have not yet happened in what we call "The Future." So when someone like you comes along and reads a comment that is now considered to have been written before "The Present" that is what humans call "The Past." If you're the kind of entity who does not understand these concepts, then it's easy to see why you would reply to my comment, which I left in "The Past" before certain events transpired ("The Future" from my perspective). Maybe this helps you understand time a bit more and why your reply to my original comment was so amazingly stupid.
Good vid Slicey for a fixed blade. I think it's an ok knife but at that price there's too much competition and better blades for that price. So it's too pricey for what it is.😁👍
I carry fixed blades everyday. I didn't buy that knife for 2 reasons. Slightly to large for EDC and that sheath. I don't mind getting a aftermarket sheath but I didn't find anything available for the knife. Custom sheaths go up in price. A knife has to come with at least a usable sheath for me to try the knife out before I spend more money on it. That sheath is really bad.
Your review of the purple and grey custom Bugout is why I am now obsessed with Benchmades.
Come back Brian
Almost 200 bucks and u get a nylon sheath, that's a turn off right there. Love the knife the sheath could be way better.
U took my forskin
Hahahahaha
Come back slicey!
Nope
I just found out about the scandalous activity- but honestly, it’s been a year. If you’ve made things right it’s time to get back on the horse. I didn’t come here for entertainment or for buying anything from you. I still appreciate your insight on knives. I don’t patron anybody on RUclips… and I never win when I enter contests. I do, however, research the shite out of a blade before I go after it. You started reviewing knives because you love them. People buy nice knives because they love them. Don’t stop reviewing them. Thanks.
That guard seems super out of place to me
Yeah....Like a flipper tab somehow jumped into the design? 🤔
Can’t really carry a fixed blade so I don’t have many ( five or six) but it’s cool to see a few reviews here and there
Fixed blade reviews would be welcome and appreciated. Thanks Bryan👍🏻
The alien knives tutank has caught my eye, mc did one couple weeks ago unboxing and I liked the way it looked and size, not big on carrying one but I wanna change my opinion on that, I want one I can place in my pocket hate hanging stuff on my side, so I suggest fixed blade that with a sheath could be easy Carry in the pocket for edc use, and protech sbr fixed seams interesting as well
Slicey, I’ve been a big fan of your channel but I don’t have any clue what’s going on. Your apology seemed genuine enough but my recommendation is don’t run away and hide from it. Don’t block comments. Only bad things will come from that. This is only going to make people more curious, create more drama, and people are still going to find out anyway. It’s also a bad look because it comes off as unrepentant and deciding to leave things as they are rather than correcting them. When it comes to scams, the scammer often just disappears and people are often left to dry. Don’t let people think that or feel that. I hope everything can get worked out soon. Love your reviews man.
Its easy to think his apology is genuine if you haven't been waiting 6+ months for a knife you purchased from him.
@@oldaccount7463 what knife are you waiting on?
@@SRVandDtrouble I just bought my first knife from a random stranger on Best Damn EDC discord. I was pleaseantly surprised by how friendly and fast the seller was. For the most part our knife community isnt that big but its a very good positive community. Which makes it all worse that Slicey took advantage of other peoples kindness and support. How pathetic is that. He literally had his youtube channel doing well and he couldve just kept growing and getting free knives for reviews and selling, but he decided to cash out for a couple thousand bucks. What a loser POS
He didn't pay multiple people for services performed (Articles written), and various knife forums are EXPLODING with people who claim he sold them knives and never shipped them. Additionally, many of his Giveaway winners never received their items, and suspiciously, some of the knives which were sold (some actually sent, some not) appear to be knives which were already won in giveaways, many of which (the knives) were donated to his channel by manufacturers with the stipulation, or understanding that they would be given away (but they were sold instead). It's not a few isolated incidents, it' a long term pattern of behavior that indicates a fundamentally dishonest person.
This is one of VERY few fixed blades I find attractive and kinda want to by. Seems like it might be a gateway drug knife…
That's a gateway you want to walk through. Fixed blades are your friends.
That's funny how the 4Max Scout is larger when opened. The RSK is more nimble
Not a fixed knife guy here...
I am a big fan of fixed blades. I have probably 3 fixed blades for every folder in my collection. for the $200 price tag, I would expect either kydex or leather, preferably with a dangler option. I am not trying to insult Doug Ritter, but if you want to get a similar sized knife, with outstanding quality, Esee and Tops bot have options that are outstanding and have better carry options. one suggestion, if you are going to review fixed blades in the future, getting some B roll outside, doing knife tasks would up really help with the depth of the review. this blade looks like it would handle notching, and batoning very well, and rope/paracord cutting ( the finish on the end of the cord is as important as the speed and ease of cutting for a lot of outdoors people like me) other than that, not a bad job reviewing for something outside of your bailiwick
Yeah... I'm thinking about changing up the format a bit, but not sure I'll be doing all that stuff. Maybe SOME of it. Makes the videos literally 5-6 times the amount of time to make.
@@SliceyDicey I hear you. the videos my son and I make for our channel take a lot of effort, with my limited mobility, and lack of a vehicle to carry my chair, it is a pain to get to the woods. it can be a 4-5 hour day to get a 45 min video with some action shots of cutting and such.
@@OtherThanIntendedPurpose well… now I feel like a lazy ass.
Only way I really love carrying a fixed blade is scout or appendix carry. 4" is about the limit of what is discrete for me but YMMV.
Are you going to start making more videos?
Maybe check out Armatus Carry Kydex Sheaths. He made me 2 super slick, durable ones for my Nyala and a custom skinning/hunting fixed blade I got as a gift. They came out great and have put them thru their paces hunting.
Ok Slicyman what U did wrong was not mail that great hunk a steel to me for early Xmas. Ohbuhaha. 😜 dreams sometimes do come true as I write this from my hospital bed after back surgery.
Damn! Hope you get better soon! I'm looking at neck surgery someday. Hopefully not for a few years.
I love your reviews. I love Hogue. Likewise, Senior Ritter. But this is one of the ugliest fixed blade profiles my peepers have ever peeped. Also… THE PRICE!!!
buy
He'll scam you mate
Good review. For the future consider fixed blades carried around the neck, in pocket and those fancy personal steak knives (oh wait those are folders)
I know 2 different guys that own that Ritter and both ordered custom sheaths without ever using the original one. One was in kydex and the other was in boltaron I think.
I REALLY don't like stuff around my neck, but I know they're popular. Perhaps.
You need to start making videos again!
MOUNTAIN MAN BRIAN IS BACK BABY!
HA! I've never been a mountain man lol.
Hope to see you very soon Slicey. We need your content back. The knife review world is getting out of hand and needs some sense brought back 🙏.
Time to come back Brian
Review bps knives....my favourite knife company. Hand made Ukraine knives for a hell of a bargain
Hey, man, I just wanted to let you know you have my support. I just saw your most recent video and you have my support. I don't know what all is going on in your life but I hope it all works out and I'll be praying for you.
Easy to support when you weren't one of the people he scammed and are still waiting on a knife bought 6 months ago. This behavior makes the knife community look bad.
@Stutterin` Bob that's a ridiculous comment. He stated he wasn't really sure what was going on. I would be furious to if I got screwed out of something but I'm just now learning would always happening and I would have left a comment saying that he had my support at first. I stepped away from the knife Community months ago and I'm checking back now and I'm just now learning what's happened. I don't know if this stuff was done through malice or if he had a lot going on in his life. Nowadays everybody wants to burn somebody at the stake without giving them a chance to make it right. We'll see if he makes it right. At this point he still has my support because I followed him for a long time and I always liked him. He would lose my support if he didn't try to make things right. People seem to forget that we're all human and none of us are perfect

@@Pharto_Stinkus how did you get all this information? You must have done an extensive investigation. Unless you're just puking out things that you've heard and don't really know if there's even a slight chance that you could be missing something he deserves the chance to make it right. You must already have your mind made up I can tell by both of your comments. It's not really smart to go into something with your mind made up when you really don't know the ins-and-outs of a situation. Good luck with your continued investigation on the matter.
Slicy hope you continue!
Continue scamming?
Continue stealing?
I am sure you are perfect! We all screw up, I happen to like his video's, so each to his own!
@@bothompson4911 well I never sold a charitable donation from a company and made a profit off of it. Cause that's a crime, 501C fraud is serious.
@@bothompson4911 except this dude has zero remorse for fucking people over. It's not screwing up when you are maliciously stealing from others for your own gain. But hey, I'm sure you are just as shady!
Where's my money or my knife???? lmmfao just kidding keep up the reviews.
I do not believe that cancel culture is productive and I believe people that keep that spirit alive in the world need to look inward very deep at themselves. EVERYONE makes big mistakes in life. EVERYONE! With that said, this is a huge mistake and people have every right to be upset. Also, everyone should be forgiven at some point especially if there is true change. It’s simple, Slicey needs to make this right with everyone he wronged. Also, I believe transparency is important to explain to everyone why this happened. The only way you can truly change is to air all of the dirty laundry, admit the faults, and turn away from those actions. I’ve learned repentance is to completely turn away from the wrong and in doing so this creates a transformation. If at some point you truly repent I know there will be many who stand behind you. There’s a lot of work to be done. Don’t ever give up! There is forgiveness to be had!
Scammers are the worst of the worst in this community. Sure eventually he should be forgiven but he should no longer use his platform to do giveaways, sell knives, or take donations for a website thats never going to happen. He's proven he can't handle that responsibly over the past couple years.
@@oldaccount7463 These are all valid points and I’m not going to say you are wrong. However, I will say that cancel culture is wrong. Completely wrong. In fact, I’d rather live in a world with scammers and no cancel culture than a world without scammers but full of cancel culture. The problem I face is our current world is full of both…pretty sad. Don’t see it changing anytime soon
@@spencerpardue422 scammers are way worse than cancel culture lmao. That's not even a comparison. You're comparing snowflakes to scumbag scammers.
not with the knife community. A lot of toxic people in it
It’s time to come back. Everyone likes a comeback!!
The hardest thing we have to do sometimes is to forgive ourselves. I personally hope to see you back real soon🙏
A scammer doesn't belong in this community period. He stole from multiple people and companies.
@@oldaccount7463 Let he without sin cast the 1st stone. Hope you find it in your heart to forgive for one day you may need forgiveness. ❤
I hope he's learned and gets another chance. We can do that.
@@rob10ring Sure he can stay in the community. But the accepting knives from companies & doing fake giveaways, accepting money for a website that will never come, and not delivering on knives he sold needs to stop. Scammers are ruining the knife community.
Any fool can criticize, complain, and condemn-and most fools do. But it takes character and self-control to be understanding and forgiving. Remember, when you judge you define yourself, not the one your judging. You never know the whole story. Everyone is in earth school. I find no fault with you Brian. Hang in there. God loves you.
Yeah, all that turn the other cheek shit doesn’t do a thing for me. This guy is a con artist. Con is short for confidence man. Meaning he gains people’s confidence, in order to take them for something they didn’t intend to give him… any fool can walk through life pretending it’s all sunshine and rainbows, and blowing himself over how intelligent and forgiving he is. But you’re just a mark for con men like Brian so congrats
God loves him, but He hates sin. Stealing is a mortal sin, a grave action that is committed in full knowledge of its gravity and with the full consent of the sinner's will. Such a sin cuts the sinner off from God's sanctifying grace. The man is a thief and got caught and in our society he has to pay a price.
theres a difference between not shipping one or two knives then not shipping a bunch of knives to various ppl. One mistake is like forgetting to send ONE knife. he purposely tried to scam, thats not a mistake. thats somethign he did on purpose
@@Checkmate1954 Not only is it a sin, but its more disgusting that he is doing this to people who supported him. Literally people who donated money for him to acheive his dreams and he just shits all over them. sickening
@@Phaminator525 is there anywhere else other than OCD4EDC and super steel Steve that explains what happened?
He is a great guy. He made mistakes. He is going to make things right. Let his actions prove who he is. Character is seen when someone admits their failures and does what they need to do to make things right. Let’s see what he makes happen. No one here is a perfect person. Humanity is not a surprise. Remember this. Support each other. Give our Brother a chance.
He's scammed people over a year by not shipping knives he sold. Also the past year he has had dozens of streams where he is happy to take our donations. We don't need this behavior in the community. Its easy to forgive when you weren't the one effected and aren't waiting for a knife you bought 6 months ago.
@@oldaccount7463 what knife did you order?
@@jumpkeys that doesnt even matter. The fact that he wasnt sending knives out to the people that supported him is sickening. We let his actions prove who he is. He has been doing this for awhile. How do you forget to ship out a knife? forgetfulness? laziness? or bad intent? i highly doubt he forgot that many ppl who give him money so hes either too lazy or is just a scammer
@@Phaminator525 I’ve known him for a long time. When people do things out of character there is a reason. It _does_ matter. It may not matter to you. It matters to me. I will be waiting and watching and communicating.
@@jumpkeys that's not out of character. He's been doing that for years.
