Mr Carr, just wanted to say I’m a big fan, heard you on Cleared Hot, just finished the Terminal list, and it’s incredible addictive. Can’t wait for to read the next one. Thank you for your service 🇺🇸✊🏽

[@ryanj9245]

I love half face blades! One day I will be able pick one up. Glad to hear the company is doing good and it’s growing, they are some of best looking knifes and blade designs!

[@mattiecrashcursed]

I appreciate you guys giving back in constant effort. Love and respect to you both.

Sounds like Bito graduated BUDS just before my brother Mike. Mike went on to SDV Team 1. Wondering if they crossed paths. Unfortunately, just laid my brother to rest, he finally succumbed to a TBI from that cluster fuck humanitarian mission in Honduras.

Thanks for the convo with Andy! Always great to hear what he has going on. He's an amazing entrepreneur!

[@internet_internet]

Thanks for doing these videos for us, G. I appreciate you.

What it takes to live the dream : grit , conviction, passion and to take care of those around you that are helping to build it . Best of luck ‘Bito. I plan on being a wine, gear and blade owner soon ... also. Should check out Tacticon .. really cool gear from some military vets

[@riffedwood5597]

Best blades. Can’t wait to see them on the screen!

[@glenncunningham6397]

What a great guy. Thanks for another great podcast, Jack.

[@bmcantrell619]

thank you dudes for this

[@boonedog1457]

I enjoyed your Podcast. I was on my Elipticle Stair Climber, listening to you guys. Time flew by! A great conversation. I felt as if I were right there, but my Mic wasn't working! Lol. 😂 Also, love my Half Face Blades knives. They are tougher than nails. I display them right next to my Winkler Knives. Both are bad ass knives!

[@travisbond635]

Ive been trying to get my hands on his blades for a while now. Yesterday was the day. I was able to get my hands on 2. The SHPOS and the CROW JR. I cant wait till they arrive. I love your book brother. Keep em coming. May God bless.

[@brisonpalmer6730]

This is an awesome podcast Bito is an incredible dude. Would love to own one of his blade’s someday.

[@deadboys007]

[@BenJamin-ne7wb]

The hot sauce that you can get on the HFB website is amazing too!

[@jgunther3398]

enjoyable and useful conversation. i just heard of half face, and thought it was some kind of take off on half-ass since it sounds like that. glad there's more interesting stuff behind the name than that!

[@internet_internet]

Such an awesome guy.

[@zibabird]

Thank you Gentlemen, shared!

[@mobilesolutionsfl]

This will be fun. Two guys talking over each other for two hours. I made it seven minutes in and that was it for me.

What audio book site benefits you most? Looking to listen to your audio books

[@billbored8277]

I got a Half Face knife back in 2016, back then you could just email them, tell 'em how you wanted it customized, and it would show up! A little different now I've heard, hard to get one.

[@bkdesignr]

that freakin 'hatch hand' sounds miserable. love those half face blades. if i can ever get the drop on one in time to get one i will.

[@flyingirish31]

Love Andrew and his blades. Can’t get over how he pushes Christiansen tho. I’ve had nothing but terrible experience with them particularly with 300 PRC chamberings. Terrible QC and not much better CS. Exactly opposite of HFBs! Andrew, they need to pay you to get them in line!

[@gregoryferguson3575]

What he doesnt know is the Vans are fucking crazy rare and hard to get too. We need more defcons

[@bigbunduru5136]

Isnt this an old podcast ?

[@tanksherman9875]

I own multiple Bito blades, and I’ll never sell them.

[@pyeitme508]
