I love reading comments from fellow knife, enthusiasts!!! 🤔I’m an auto enthusiast also.. same thing happens with the best channels … Reminds me of what a friend of mine , his grandmother used to say , ‘two knuckleheads are better than one’ ; almost every time we worked together, he took the opportunity to say that. Enthusiasts brainstorming /sharing . By the way I came here by way of the knife doctor … Any other folks in the audience: does this does this discussion remind you of : at the past Blade shows.. sitting at the tables in the back by the concessions… taking a break… and pulling out recent purchased knives and sharing and talking about them? Well, specially, us older guys that needed a half hour to an hour break. What amazed me and my daughter ( frequent companion in all three days of the show) was that we were speaking to folks from all over the world!!! I can’t over emphasize the experience that both of us had there … Also several conversations with Ethan Becker… over the years… I often thought it was amazing that he remembered my daughter and I . And same was true with several other venders. Great folks that were interest in speaking to you about knives whatever sharing they could do.. Genuine people. I didn’t make it to the last three shows .. Just had a total knee so I should be in good shape to return next year. A aspect of the show : lots of folks talk about the cost/ money (in not wanting to spend it). But if you’re a knife enthusiast… going there and talking and learning, and just listening to folks ; taking in all that information… the seminars… Without making a single purchase, the experience is awesome. Being around like minded folks enthusiastic about a tool…. You just have to set limits.. be focused on your wants and needs (have a list?). Most of my last 20 years has been a Camillus/ Becker / Spyderco Fan … haven’t really much looked at other knives… only picked up a handful of other makes. Either was a giveaway price/loved how it felt… … but basically haven’t straight too far from my main focus. I loved your comment: how a knife takes you back… I have knives that my daughters have used when they were small.. now their kids are that age… I use knives that my dad used.. heck I use a shovel that my dad owned (that I reconditioned on my 2 x 72) . Every so often I re-oil it with tung oil). I compost in the ground all of our vegetable scraps (I tell the neighborhood kids I feed the worms when they ask me why I’m doing)(crazy old man).. but every time I touch that shovel, whether using it or reconditioning it… it takes me to a ‘special ‘ place. Sorry got carried away 2 cups of coffee should’ve had one.
Yes Kevin 1994 Atlanta blade show knife of the year!! all the first Alaskan knives where all made from D2 steel that is highly under rated D2 holds a better edge than CPM S90V and Maganacut!!
Tell Wade that Case made a set of shears, the ones I have seen were made for bird hunters and used to dress out game birds The shears I have were from about 1986-1988 and given to me by my employer as he took several of us guys to his ranch near Loredo to hunt Quail and he gave all of us, about 12-15 of us a set of those Case shears with a factory sheath
Steak knives are serrated in 99% of cases specifically becauseca fine edge will roll right over as soon as it's pressed in to the hard plate. Serrated edges stand up to that type of abuse without much issue. You will see fine edge steak knives here and there but for the most part it's pretty rare.
Man what a great atmosphere. I feel like im sitting there with yall. Great group of guys and some really amazing knives. Man that 1800s us navy stag knife is simply beautiful. And i actually have that exact boker usa electricians knife. I commented on one of Kevin's videos and told him i seen it at a antique store for 40 bucks and asked him if i should go back and get it and he said yea you should get it. So i legit went back the same day and picked it up. Its in amazing condition. Great video brother. Glad you got the chance to sit in. That would be an absolute blessing 👊👍👍
First I like to Congrats on your son Graduating H.S. He looks like he has good head on his shoulder Yall did right..The knowledge that all three share today at the table priceless...Cant wait to see more colabs..I really do love those slips yall made..I have an old pair of acme boots that is tough leather im gonna atempt to make a slip for my E.D.C..

Awesome video, so excited to see yall handle modern knifes. Thats what got me into knifes then GEC got me into the world of traditional and i found knife doctor. Knife krazy is taking back to the modern world now. 😂
Well I enjoyed the hell out of these videos (part 1+2 I mean), and I really hope to see y'all sit down together again. Would love to see one with your boy in it as well, anyways I'm subscribed now so when that happens I'll find out pretty quickly. Thanks fellas
That US Navy is unbelievable awesome....I sent knife Dr. a few pics of a jim bowie pocket knife with Owens Coal Miner Special stamped on blade & red bone handle but he couldn't give any info...some others were saying it is part of a 7 knife set very rare...hoping knife Krazy can help me out on finding more info
i look for ward to watching knife dr & hes friends ..i picked up a ka bar vietnam from usmc was used ..the guy passed away in 2016 ..so here wife selling
Im going to poke fun and throw a joke on the modern folders. I call the modern folders hipster knives, our grandfathers and dads wouldn't be caught with a modern folder in their pockets, especially the ones with the so called super steels that a person couldn't sharpen with a stone.
I will throw this back at you. One reason they wouldn’t have one in their pockets is because they didn’t make them back then. Here’s another way to look at it. If you have any guns, do you only have black powder guns and single shots? Or do you have an AR or Glock? The automobile you drive. Is it only a 1950 car or truck? Or do you drive a modern vehicle? The tv you watch, old tube or flat screen? I can go on and on. Times change and new things are made. Doesn’t make the new things bad? Something for you to ponder on. Thanks for watching my channel.
@@KnifeKrazy.People like what they like but I think most people who are into modern folders are because of status and brand recognition, like Benchmade Spyderco, Micro Tech etc. I will admit most Spyderco's are fairly practical, ergonomic, and usually fits the hand well. Not all but a lot of modern folders are so unpractical. A lot of these knife companies are now making knives look like futuristic spacecrafts that have the most unconventional, unpractical blades that actually make it cumbersome to use or cut. It's like all these blade manufacturers are all in competition to see who can make the most expensive, funkiest, gimmicky, furthest thing from a knife and call it a knife. Knife Center puts out a video every week or so of the latest knives on the market and I watch it just for a good laugh. It's become a comedy show because of the knives these manufacturers are putting out. I also watch it to see the latest mediocre Benchmade's just to laugh at their prices. But back to the traditional knives, they just work, they're classy, they look good, and most don't cost a house payment. I guess I'm a analog man living in a digital world. And about the guns, I love all guns, old, black powder, AR's, modern, small and big.
what time frame do your friends thing the ka bar made in ..like to see there opinion...i just got me another ka bar & handle light brown but was actully in vietnam & used by an usmc vet
Which book did you and Eric get that you were talking about? I just bought The Complete Book of U.S. Military Pocket Knives by Michael W. Silvey, hoping that was it.
Hey I have a question about my leatherman I just got in the mail. Do you know if it is made in America? No where on the tool is the USA stamp. And they put Portland Oregon also. But this supertool 300 doesn't show either. If it is made in USA, then why can't they put the stamps on the tool?
All Leatherman’s are made in the USA. The reason only a few models have USA on them and most don’t. Is because the models without is not made with enough USA made parts. It requires a certain percent of parts made in the USA before they will put the USA stamp on their knives but they all are assembled in the USA with some USA made parts. Just not enough percent to get the stamp.
Just joined your channel because of the knife doctor
Wade has a little story with every knife. Love his enthusiasm! Great video!
Thank you.
Watching good ol boys sit at a table and appreciate knives together is about as good as it gets. Great video knife Krazy. Man that was great

Thank you and Happy 4th to you.
I would throw mutually-respectful hands with a bro that disses on Spyderco
Think that antique stag german switchblade had a jeweled rivet fitted in that hole
Cabela's and Bass pro shop have been selling the knives of Alaska for many years.
That US Navy is unbelievable awesome....I sent knife Dr. a few pics of a jim bowie pocket knife with Owens Coal Miner Special stamped on blade & red bone handle but he couldn't give any info...some others were saying it is part of a 7 knife set very rare...hoping knife Krazy can help me out on finding more info
That one don’t ring a bell. I’m not sure what that would be worth.
How many years of knife knowledge can you get at one table?
You are right about that. Thanks
If you are a friend of the knife doctor, you are also a friend of mine, by the way, your father is an incredible guy, take good care of him.
Thank you.
You should get wade to get the little case bead for the leather to hang on the sharpener
Good idea. 👍🏻
If that’s Westinghouse… wow… that’s all I have to say.
34:35 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Great video! Love all your alls videos. What would you recommend for USA made knife for all types of flipping and fidget friendly?
Not sure what your budget is but, the Spyderco Para 3 and Para Military 2 is a fantastic fidget USA knife.
@@KnifeKrazy. I been eyeballing the camo one like knife dr has just need to break down and drop the cash lol

Not sure the year. Thanks for watching.
Which book did you and Eric get that you were talking about? I just bought The Complete Book of U.S. Military Pocket Knives by Michael W. Silvey, hoping that was it.
That sounds like it might be the same exact one. The one I have is titled. “Pocket knives of the United States military by Michael W. Silvey”

The Free P2 and Free P4 is USA stamped. The new ARC is USA stamped.
@KnifeKrazy. ok, that makes sense! Thank you sir.
