Seconds have always been great user knives. They have always been sold by small hardware stores as Seconds for farmers

[@BigRedEDC]

True Jason

[@timb4425]

Andy offers a great value when buying these seconds. For the most part, they are still in great condition and would make a fantastic user. I would not hesitate buying one of their seconds. Thanks for making this video JB. I am sure it puts many folk's mind at ease.

[@BigRedEDC]

Completely agree Tim!

[@GromMolotok]

That's extremely impressive. I didn't have any concerns before, but this really stresses just how high their standards are.

[@BigRedEDC]

Thanks so much Grom

[@RadioGeekBlades]

Thanks for showing us what a 2nd is and what to expect. 👍

[@BigRedEDC]

My pleasure my friend!

[@ericstarr9399]

Thank you so much for bringing this video to us! Would love to see a part two where you go back after having Andy's answers!

[@BigRedEDC]

I was pretty much right on with my assessments.

[@WilliamsKnifeLife]

The good thing about having high standards is that a second comes across as equal to something other companies would claim as first quality. Great value. I'd buy one.

[@BigRedEDC]

For sure William

[@craigwilkes]

Love that orange swayback. Very nice for “second”. Thanks JB.

[@BigRedEDC]

Have a good day Craig

[@PocketRazors]

Thanks for another great video Sir. It’s so refreshing to see companies that still take quality control this seriously. When they feel the need to mark the blades so they can’t be resold on the secondary market as first run, that says a lot to the quality of these seconds. Rosecraft hasn’t made it into the collection up to this point, but they have certainly moved up the priority list in a big way. Checking out a few of these seconds, might just be the perfect way to get more aquainted with them.

[@BigRedEDC]

Andy and RoseCraft are doing things right for sure! Thanks so much for watching Mark

[@terrancecoard388]

I added a Grey Clinch River with a cosmetic defect to my order. Wish the folks in Bradford, Pa take notice! As always...thanks for the discount!

[@BigRedEDC]

Awesome Terrance

[@davidwilliams1805]

Seconds can still be some very nice knifes for sure! Thanks for the information JB! Keep being awesome my friend!

[@BigRedEDC]

Absolutely David

[@radar468]

I went to their website mid vid and the loosahatchie is all sold! I cried a little bit and then finished the video. Lol. Their seconds look better than some companies firsts!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@BigRedEDC]

Uhoh....sorry radar

[@jimmiecrowe520]

Impressive seconds for sure. twenty years ago, these would be first run knives, Thank you JB!

[@BigRedEDC]

Thanks for watching Jimmie

[@byronkennedy7912]

Just some of the beats value knives in the marketplace! Thanks JB, kudos AA and Rosecraft.

[@BigRedEDC]

For sure Byron

[@nwav5699]

Thanks BigRed, I didn't know RCB seconds exhisted! Just ordered a Ocoee River Kayak- cosmetic second. Looking forward to it!

[@BigRedEDC]

Right on! Hope you enjoy it!

[@peppereddingo9339]

These seconds look better than a lot of the "first quality" items offered from other companies. Thanks for the closer look.

[@BigRedEDC]

That's for sure my friend!

[@gadgetgus]

Hey JB 👊🏼 Those mechanical seconds are fine by me 👍🏼

[@BigRedEDC]

Me too Gus!

[@davidkurle5418]

I'd have absolutely no problem carrying any one of those👍Great video, buddy!

[@BigRedEDC]

You and me both David!!

[@terrancecoard388]

Notification for the Briarpatch just showed up and is in my cart...will check out their Seconds.

[@BigRedEDC]

👍👍👍👍

[@Marco_Ye]

These are a good opportunity to pick up a RoseCraft and see if it is your jam. Thanks JB.

[@BigRedEDC]

Great idea Marco!

[@kccisco777]

They look great, thanks for sharing

[@BigRedEDC]

Thanks for checking them out!

[@EdwinDekker71]

I think this is great QC and an example to other brands.

[@BigRedEDC]

Most definitely!!!

[@KevinSmithandKnives]

Very informative! Definitely worth the price!

[@BigRedEDC]

Yes indeed Kevin

[@chrishinkle5982]

Thanks for sharing JB👊🏻

[@BigRedEDC]

Have a good day Chris

[@shamuscollins5861]

Definitely worth the risk, if this is a good representation of their second. Thanks for sharing bud.

[@BigRedEDC]

No doubt Shamus

[@blovins729]

If those are seconds, I would have no problem buying one. Well worth the cosmetic/mechanical flaws that seem to be barely noticeable.

[@BigRedEDC]

Most definitely!!!

[@randallreed1926]

After watching this video, I decided to purchase a Beaver Creek Barlow mechanical second. Honestly, the only thing I can find wrong with this knife is where they marked the knife as a second! This knife is beautiful.

[@BigRedEDC]

Awesome!! Very glad to hear that

[@chaddamron3877]

I got a beaver creek full price SOLID - surgeon blade 2nd had mushy back spring meh still great - and cosmetic 2nd on French broad which is a Lazer slicer - lil crack by one of the pins - no Fs given - great blades solid performance big fan

[@BigRedEDC]

Glad to hear that Chad!!

[@SpecialEd_59]

I have a couple seconds from RoseCraft but I don't even remember which ones they are. They all are great knives,

[@BigRedEDC]

Lol....right on Ed

[@beeferbaron]

Quality right there!

[@BigRedEDC]

Yes sir

[@eanmichael75]

Thanks bigred bfor the info

[@BigRedEDC]

For sure! Have a good weekend

[@twiceborn_by_grace]

I waited almost the whole video for you to bring up Case. 😂

[@BigRedEDC]

🤣🤣🤣 Just wait until my Case video next week! Should be ood for a laugh...lol!

[@Wheelsandblades-f1r]

Awesome thanks for sharing

[@BigRedEDC]

You bet! Thanks for watching

[@tylerwilliams1088]

Man! I missed the 2nds sale on the Loosahatchie again. 😢

[@BigRedEDC]

Sorry to hear that Tyler

[@OFatherEDC]

Great minds must think alike. While watching this whole video I was saying to myself RCB seconds quality is still better than Case's quality.

[@BigRedEDC]

Lol...yeah they are!

[@ratride1]

Even though they are seconds the bone handles are beautiful.

[@BigRedEDC]

Yes they are

[@lewisgreenway5065]

Wow kudos to the QC department maybe they could train Case in how to do the job, like you I am upset at the quality of the Case Copperhead I bought not bad enough to send back but far from top quality, would never chance buying another Case. However I would happily buy a second from RoseCraft great video and do please follow up on what Andy tells you. 😁

[@BigRedEDC]

I agree 100% Lewis!

[@kenwilliams2219]

Good company when you have to put their seconds under a microscope to find fault. Thanks Andy and thanks JB.

[@BigRedEDC]

Definitely so Ken

[@kathleensmith370]

I would be proud to have the seconds

[@BigRedEDC]

For sure Kathleen!

[@ryandye6242]

Big Red!!!!

[@BigRedEDC]

Howdy Ryan!!!

[@yannikw1709]

I’ve been trying to get one of these in Aus for a reasonable price. This might be the route !

[@BigRedEDC]

Well worth the cost at full price but can save going this route

[@yannikw1709]

Would you know of any sites that offer shipping to Australia? C. Risner seems to be the only one but shipping is still $54 !

[@BigRedEDC]

@yannikw1709 wow...that might be your best chance unfortunately. Shipping to Australia is expensive! I sent a coin and sticker to a channel member and it cost $20ish for something that small.

[@kevink.2719]

Very interesting video

[@BigRedEDC]

Glad you think so Kevin!

[@pnwfunstuff2218]

In my opinion many of us would just throw these slippys in a pocket with our keys, so I Minor chip in the bone is nothing. Watching this and seeing the standards they hold themselves too makes me want to buy one.

[@BigRedEDC]

Right on my friend!!

[@davidhelka8929]

Interesting stuff very minor things it seems are wrong great video man 👍

[@BigRedEDC]

Thank you David!

[@thomasmcdonald4425]

Good stuff

[@BigRedEDC]

Appreciate it Thomas

[@CrispyCritter04]

Nice JB

[@BigRedEDC]

Thanks for checking them out Crispy

[@_MiMo_]

I think the defect is that they were mislabeled defect.

[@BigRedEDC]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@annasoH323]

Oh, phew, there are still some left! (I reaaaally need to finish my taxes first though…)

[@BigRedEDC]

Tis that season for sure!!

[@cheesymoonworkshop]

Good video

[@BigRedEDC]

Thanks for the visit

[@jeffjackson5331]

None of those issues are issues to me. I would buy and use them all day long.

[@BigRedEDC]

Agreed Jeff!!👍👍💯💯

[@jeffjackson5331]

@@BigRedEDC yep

[@mikereese15]

I was not at all concerned and actually stared at the seconds page for 5 days. Im just not a slipjoint guy. But they all look good and Im sure would be fine. At least for me

[@BigRedEDC]

Right on Mike!👍👍
