The first Enzo (now Brisa) you showed is the Elver and not the Trapper. I prefer the Elver. I'm surprised you did even find one since they are out of production for some time already. I always make a difference between the knives you need and the knives you want. But I'm a collector so when I see a very good deal on a knife I like I buy it and if I no longer want it probably sell for more than I paid.

I think you just sold me a woodcraft, love my Bocca pukko, more I look at this the more functional it looks 🤔 definitely needs new kydex and ulti clip

I like your channel, glad to have found it ☝️

Nice mods for daily carry, buying a lot of sheaths for waist carry, may cut their spinner and put an ulti clip on 👍

After years of collecting everything hatchets ,clevers,to mini spidercos l enjoy kitchen cutlery because I get to use them every day

I don't believe for a second that buck changed their handle material for environmental reasons. There's no way it wasn't a cost cutting measure that didn't work out.

I'm not sure you want to question the masculinity of every Australian man. We live in a country with highly restrictive knife laws that even limit capacity to carry a mutli-tool. Funnily enough, we still manage to open boxes and so on without carrying a knife.

Well this was fun. It's been awhile since the "Right amount of Wrong" club got together. Don't mind if I warm myself by the fire...Macallan 18 Year Old Double Cask? If you insist...just 3 fingers is fine. There is a never ending tension here isn't there? The spirit is willing but the flesh...ah yes. Weak indeed. The sharing of ideas and promises, empty or otherwise, is why we gather. I'm writing down the explanation of comparing D2 to O1 right now. It sounds like an excuse but really...So reasonable. So, so...necessary. How could the most important person in my house refuse?! As the lead Necromancer, visionary and slave to the algorithm, you are obligated, nay compelled to feed the gaping maw an endless daisy chain of creative morsels. Different models, steels, edges, applications, sheaths...and we are grateful for your sacrifice! No rationalizing necessary. You are but a supplicant to the machine. Thank-you for both the invitation for indulgence, prudence and oh, the depravity of it all! Can I have an amen?!

I was never stopped for a pocket check in NY or the city and ive walked with knives in public everytime. Right past cops many a times. Now Philadelphia on the other hand...... Lmao

Bark River suuuuuccckkksssssss

A man needs a pocket knife. I've carried one daily for the past 25 years. The brand does not matter as long as it makes me more useful. I really enjoy your videos!

spot on!

Years ago at the BLADE SHOW at the Becker stand they were pushing that point ..weak point. This was back when they were ending the old stamp. they had a show special of the Escabars bk 14 .. at $15 a piece .( I dropped a years ‘allowance’ there n then lol) . They must’ve had 1000 there. But they were showing that by stamping them : the knives were caused to take a one to five degree bend at the stamp… they were putting on the glass counter and you could see it.. now those are small knives… and they may be just a small percentage of rejects or seconds… anyways I just thought I would throw that out there.. Also, I heard on the blade forums that those black coated Beckers was common to find the blade finish, not as finished as a usual noncoated knife. I stripped and polished with my 2x72 and wet sanding paper over ? 4 hours trying to make that bk2 a show piece .. in the end I gave up . But it doesn’t ‘stick’ like it use too. Ha ha

New subscriber here. I used to go to Blade show for a few years , quit three years ago. Was into pocket knives and 5 inch lock backs for many years . Inherited a bunch of knives from my dad. ( he collected USA,made Schrade) My daughter started going to blade shows with me and got me interested in tactical knives. I quit going about three years ago (it’s saving me a ton of money !!! ) You’re right , I only use about six knives. For EDC and projects /around the house. I’m 66 and all my kids, grandkids and son-in-law’s, all have Swiss army knives and Spyderco delicas from me . My dad worked at fabricating and testing hydraulic cylinders…. in his old toolbox were a couple old hickory knives that he used to cut the packings. I restored those old carbon steel wooden handle knives and try to make use of one when I can . They sure take a sharp edge…. Somehow you mentioning the mora makes me think of the old Hickory. ( u don’t have to spend a fortune on a good tool, there’s plenty of deals out there) Best to you.

I live in the UK carry a Eye Witness Barlow probably get away with it non locking blade under 3” etc because in the UK you can’t carry a potato peeler in public lol Love your content 🔪

I've missed your humor! Good to see you back! ✌🏽

I’m confused. Are these Tom’s knives, or Knifetime Story’s knives?

Never watched you before. That took a turn at the end I didn't see coming. Well played.

Best intro and first line ever.

Great vid. Good to learn a bit about Randall knives. I would like to get one, one day. Prices though? Ouch! I first heard about them reading a story in Blade Magazine decades ago. A knife collector/dealer bought one, found a service number on it and tracked down the former owner who had hocked it many years back. The former owner asked about the price and it was too much, he wanted to by it for his son who was graduating and infantry course somewhere. After talking to the former owner, he mulled over it a bit, then packed it up and sent it to him, possibly with a note about making it easier to contact him for the next time around.

Sound wisdom. zane

Because a 4-inch blade is illegal to carry in Commie Colorado I had to buy the Buck 112 instead of the 110. The shorter blade on the 112 ranger is no problem and works for all my cutting needs.

The enzo is an enzo elver.....not made any more

Guilty as charged. 🔪

👍👍👍.🇺🇲🔪🌲🔥

You don't have a pocket knife? Well, you have a pocket don't you?

I watched a 13 year old video about the SOG Agency. Looked sweet. Of course it's not manufactured anymore. Hey but it looks like a Randall Model 1. Oh yeah, they are hard to get. I bought a Blackjack Model 7.

I don't have a knife collection habit. Except for a Esee RB3, BPS BS3, El Chete last month and a Becker Kephart arriving tomorrow. But as I previously stated I do not have a knife addiction.

Irish!!!! You said you were done buying knives! (UNLESS you bought these for the channel..... 🤔) I bought the Enzo Trooper and love it! Missed ya, Tom, you old curmudgeon!

Enjoyed the hell out of this video. Dang! Now I have to get a Garberg. Thanks!

I agree. I own 8 knives. They all do different things with their different types. Plus if I manage to break one I have 7 more as a backup. So instead of waiting for a replacement I have them already for rotation. Well that’s what I tell my wife. I’ve been in the dog house ever since. Cheers.

You’re either in an orgy or at a party. You can’t be in a party and at an orgy… well I suppose you can be at an orgy if your the water boy and not on the field.

Whar happened? I distinctly remember you doing a video some time ago declaring that you were done accumulating knives and were even getting rid of a few. So easy to back slide. On the other hand, it's your money and your passion, so I would say why not? Your heirs probably won't appreciate what you leave them anyway. Enjoy it while you can.

Are you saying every man should only own one knife? 😂

Are you saying every man should only own one knife? 😂

100%

I’ve slowed down my knife buying but I know that sooner or later I’ll be back in the saddle again, running that charge card acct up….but I love it!

I like skeletonized :) Balance, what a concept...

That looks like an old Enzo full tang Skinner...Its not the Elver but could be possibly a full flat Elver? Thats weird looking....definitely not a Trapper.

Amen sir. Amen.

Can’t take a penny with you buddy. You enjoy your hobby. I’m 6 months and 19 days into my no new knife for a year resolution. I’ve hung tough. I am noticing I’m enjoying my collection and realizing if I ever spend another dollar on a knife I’m just being eccentric. I’m noticing gravitating to smaller blades and full size handles in my daily tasks around the property. I enjoy inexpensive knives and agree Mora could fill all rolls of knife use, and spending big money ain’t necessary, but there’s a difference in working wood with a Bark River 3V Gunny Scandi and a Mora Companion. A fellow should indulge himself if he works and earns a living. Glad you have some new projects to customize and tinker with. Always good to see you put up a video buddy. Thanks. Those Esse leather pouch sheaths are really good. I use them on several of my Mora knives as well. Knife Connection sells really nice leather pouch sheaths with danglers or W/O and with firesteel loops. I have several of them.

Waiting to open a box ...less then 2 weeks to go. Inside is a Manix 2 Crucarta. Its been sitting here for a couple weeks now. I'm testing my willpower till it gets closer to my birthday. 😬 Any thoughts on Cruwear steel? Can you match my willpower? I am a rock...I am an island.

Agree with you 100%. But why do we keep buying them? There’s that natural urge for “something new”, something shiny. But, I think it’s also the constant bombardment of advertising from knife manufacturers and retailers. It’s constant…

Why would you loan an expensive knife and not demand it back. Let them buy their own.

lol 😂 yeah I have more knives than I can carry. 👍🏻
