Ex-09 Damascus clone, and Nautilus clone, how are they?

[@aemax_]

Just bought a nautilus clone before this video came out and was worried about how good it was going to be. After watching this I'm now really excited to try out the clone, thanks for making this video! (also that white and black is TOO CLEAN)

[@DJEyelessPyro]

👌

How is it PacK?

Hi. Are you planning on getting Alien by TheOne? I’m asking because I would like to see your opinion on Falcon vs Alien.

Yeah he said he ordered some last video in the description I'm pretty sure

thanks mang, helpin us all dodge the shit clones with these reviews

[@hourglasseyesflipping]

I didn't think it was that bad TBH. I like the idea of switching the blade for a trainer blade.

Nice reviews as always pyro! I know this is completely unrelated to the reviews but can you still do the combos you did on your last Kraken clone overview?

[@DJEyelessPyro]

what do you mean can i still do the combos lol

[@97markviii]

I got mine and luckily enough the bushings were pretty spot on not requiring much tuning. The inlays are just superglued in. I took one out and re-glued with better superglue, the inlays all came flush except the one I re-glued. It's got good balance, I was surprised how light it was compared to similar butterfly knives I have. I feel like some would want more weight at the end of the handles as the stock spacers are quite light.

[@IckyStickyRicky123]

Cant wait to hear your opinion on the alien, I ordered one myself and am super excited for it

one problem i have with baliplus is recently, they’ve been putting logos. that’s just bad to me.great knives, certainly better than theone, but i wish they would stick with the bp logo

[@Kraumyke]

Hey man if I wanted to get a bali and my choices were Falcon Kraken or Naut what would you recommend? Are they all good and its preference based or is there one that is superior to the other two?

[@DJEyelessPyro]

all are good, falcon is superior if youre getting trainer, kraken is superior if youre getting live blade, dont get theone nautilus, get baliplus, its handle bias, so it depends on what youre looking for

[@Kraumyke]

[@WartimeProfiteer]

what's your opinion on the naut live blades?

[@DJEyelessPyro]

i assume you mean by theone, the tanto is good, trainer sucks, bowie is eh

[@skullsmasherlv2243]

wat store did you buy the naut on?

[@DJEyelessPyro]

store doesn't matter

[@97markviii]

I am still waiting on this bali. I got the trainer and the ex10 live blade (like you mentioned you were going to do). The carbon inlays are an easy fix as they either used too much glue or the inlays are slightly oversized. Just looking at it you can tell it's going to have handle bias but in my experience removing those spacers makes it flip far worse. I've heard with the trainer flips better but I'll wait and see for myself. It is usually better if the blade has more weight at the end but having more weight at the end of the handles helps with that IMO. The trainer was $95 and the live blade was $25 not including taxes. It's one of the more expensive clones if you want a live blade, but as a trainer it's about the same as most other titanium clones.

[@DJEyelessPyro]

i really loved the design of the blade, so, i needed it, and imo the trainer for it is really ugly lol

[@97markviii]

@@DJEyelessPyro Yeah the trainer blade is like a very bad Rhapsody copy

I mean maybe I'm making excuses for it but I feel like the CF not being flush on one side could be a good indicator for what side you're grabbing. It seems like the flush side is the bite handle. I'm sure it's just a matter of shotty QC but it could be a good design point to do. As for the Natalius I'll probably pick one up if they start making the black and red with the inked blade.

[@DJEyelessPyro]

its 100000000% inconsistent quality control, and its not a pro, its definitely a con

[@brandon_crow1291]

@@DJEyelessPyro oh not I'm sure it is. I do think that it would be a subtle thing that could be a cool desing feature if someone were to do something like that intentionally. But ya in this case it's a QC thing for sure.

[@DJEyelessPyro]

@@brandon_crow1291 doing something like that wouldn't be noticeable for bite handle indicator, on paper good idea, in practice, useless

[@brandon_crow1291]

@@DJEyelessPyro aye fair enough, I just try to think of interesting desing ideas to kinda break up the samey sort of feel that I've been noticing with bali designs lately. At least on the more budget end. Im sure some don't or wouldn't land and some would.
