The placement of the retract switch is actually ingenious. When you stab someone, the blade will pierce them, then automatically retract instantly because the full stab depresses the retract tab, allowing for a lightning strike and a fast withdrawal, likely before anyone even knows what's happened, because it will look like you just pushed them. Very Assassin-y.

@@wolfie6005 Nah, I'm the loud, cheerful kid who smiles all the time and tells jokes, but has a fascination with mechanics and tactics especially as they apply to medieval and melee weapons.

[@LibertasVideo]

Haha! I know, it been a long time coming!

[@calcugedhion1592]

If there was also a safety tab/button on the side of the covering that would lock it up while retracted so you don't accidentally extend it then it'd be literally perfect for a real assassin.

[@paulchro_]

I wouldn't say perfect since most assassinations today are done remotely like with a bomb or sniper rifle (and the obvious string could give it away) but yeah it could be a very good choice for CQB in clandestine ops

Ubicollectibles should do dual Action Hidden Blades like this One Great Video Thank You❤️

[@LibertasVideo]

I agree! It would be really cool. If I remember correctly, the dual action mechanism might have more legal issues involved with it than say a single action spring assisted blade.

[@aquilaibn-laahad9439]

@@LibertasVideo OTF blades are illegal in Canada. I was able to order my dual hidden blade somehow. Thats probably because the blade is flimsy. It's probably also categorized by law as non functioning replica. If i tried to order a Micro Tech OTF switchblade into Canada, it most definitely would not clear through customs.

[@greenghost7907]

Hey, great video! Well developed and you speak very well! It may just be my phone, but might I suggest using an EQif possible for your audio? It’s a tad over saturated, If I’m saying that correctly. It peaks occasionally, but otherwise I have no other critiques. The production quality is great, you’re very informative and even your advertising for the links isn’t annoying at all.

[@HETZERCOM2000]

Please make more on this. I'm getting it soon and I just wanna see it in action my friends.

[@obr_plays]

I ordered mine and it came in. It works well until you've used it a decent amount of times with the pull on the string and retracting. I've noticed that the skull insignia is glued onto the base which fell off a couple of times, in which I had to re glue it back on. On the second day of playing around with it, it starting jamming up but I eventually fixed it, or so I thought. Turns out that on the bottom of the mechanism, there are two loose pieces that actually fell out of the device. I managed to put it all back together but the two pieces mentioned easily fling off when you have the hidden blade facing flat down. The pieces also fling off when pulling on the string which is a major downfall to this product. Disclaimer, this is for my hidden blade that I ordered from the link and could be different to others that are shipped. I'm currently trying to find a fix for this but I am not able to find any sort of help.

[@milansvarc9734]

Oh, thanks for info, i am currntly looking for a dual action metal hidden blade and this is important fact

[@cristiancollazo5]

Bruh the sound it makes is so awesome idk why it makes my assassin heart feel good

[@jeremiahthornton7938]

Hey, Libertas! I've wanted to make my own hidden blade props for quite some time. When I finish my first, could you please review it? I'd love to hear your opinions. And better yet, I could learn if you have any issues with my blade, that way I can fix it. Notes: • The blade will be featured in a How-To-Make video (based on Indy Mogul's "Backyard" FX series). So, if you want to make it instead, you can. • There will be two versions of the blade in the tutorial: a BFX prop and a forged prop. Since you like the more realistic ones, I recommend you watch the second half of the video. • The mechanism will be based on the official concept art for Assassin's Creed and Altair's codex page from the second game. This might enhance its durability, prevent jamming and allow quick extension and retraction of the blade.

[@felipebascunan8977]

Can you show us more hidden blades like this one ??

[@joshblackhawk8625]

can you make a video showing how the mechanism works?

[@Manicies]

Question: could you theoretically trim that tab down to open up a bit more wrist movement? Based on my knowledge of how DAOTF mechanisms work, combined with what I see here, it does extend even further while the blade is out, so it doesn't seem like it should affect the ability to retract the blade

[@Vampklz]

You could file it down but it might be harder to reach to retract the blade

I wish I had a good answer for you. ImdeePain Reborn looks like he makes some sweet hidden blades that utilize the string.

[@S1RCARNAG3]

Perfect timing with this video. I actually recieved Ezio's and Edward's Hidden Blade today. Took a month for both to be mailed to me as it comes from Hong Kong. Cost me 78 dollars each which isn't too bad. Downside is Ezio's Hidden Blade wasn't exactly the same as the one in the picture they were selling. The base is supposed to be metal but instead it is plastic which I do not recommend people to buy because the hoop that holds the strap to wrap around your wrist broke. Edward's is all metal which is the exact same one in your video Libertas. Its extremely fun, badass, and addictive to keep extending the blade over and over again. Edward's Hidden Blade looks almost exactly the same as Mcfarlanes plastic toy as Ezio's Hidden Blade doesn't even look close to Neca's plastic toy which kinda sucks. Oh and the fact that it broke literally in minutes that I was using it

[@LibertasVideo]

Yeah the Edward one is pretty sweet! In what way did the Ezio blade brake? Just the hoop? Or did the actual blade break as well?

[@S1RCARNAG3]

@@LibertasVideo just the hoop but that's ok because I'm gonna have the steel piece to be cut so I can replace the plastic base and I'm gonna replace the plastic blades with stainless steel and sharpen the blade

[@LibertasVideo]

Very cool! Good to know, as I am very interested in the Ezio hidden blade a well. I like your plan of replacing the hoop with more durable materials. Another idea would be too make a leather mounting plate - similar to what was seen on the McFarlane Edward Blade. I did something similar when I made my Edward gauntlet, so that the leather would take the strain of the straps rather than the thin plastic on the hidden blade housing. But your idea sounds like it would supply even stronger support. Very cool and thanks for the input!

[@S1RCARNAG3]

@@LibertasVideo anytime I'm always glad to help you with whatever materials you want to go with your hidden blade and I love your real leather gauntlet. Unfortunately I don't have the skills to stitch leather so i used the actual base covers from both mcfarlanes and necas fake leather toy to mount the hidden blades. Funny enough the mcfarlanes fit perfectly onto Edward's hidden blade where ezio's was a little too long so I had to cut through the fake leather to slide in ezio's hidden blade. Both fit nice and sturdy except for ezio as it hangs off a little due to the hoop snapped

[@user-lw8jk6nv7l]

I managed to cop an extended hidden blade a while back. I have a crappy video of it on my channel. There's a new one with a leather vambrace. Also, I did a crap ton of research on these, and apparently they used to be a kit, and what is important is that you really need to adjust it yourself to get it to work right. I had the old red and black one, but sold it after I poloshed it. I plan on getting more and making more videos.

[@LibertasVideo]

Very good to know! What did you have to adjust on yours to get it to work better for you?

[@user-lw8jk6nv7l]

@@LibertasVideo i adjusted the tightness of the screws, and even rotated the spring to make it tighter. I then took steel wool to any sliding components, then polished. I specifically sewing machine oil on it due to how thin the oil is. Edit: Dry graphite lube is amazing too. Especially the stuff that you can spray. But I think you will be fine with the plastic blade, but use the dry lube for it. Only use oil of you have a full metal one. I'm about to get the new one that comes with a vambrace.

[@LibertasVideo]

Awesome! Thanks so much, and I will definitely keep those tips around as I am sure they will be very useful in the future. I'll also keep an eye on your channel to see what you think of the new one with the leather vambrace!
