[@Barryhatchet]

The ruler was definitely the star of the show

[@optimuscrime608]

The button stick goes away. Mine was extremely sticky and hard to push, almost impossible to open at times but it has broken in sooooo nicely it’s crazy! Best button lock knife detent I’ve ever felt in my life.

[@Mainrollman]

On my short list for Blade Show.

[@ronhendy5228]

Keep up the great content Tristate! Every time I see ultem I think of you.

[@kathleensmith370]

love the look and finish of this one

[@krazy_roach1698]

Thanks bro 🙏🏼

[@michaelinsc9724]

Definitely needs a Wharnie! Stunning knife! Really like my Wharnie ABW.

[@TheWhiskyExplorer]

I mean damnit! I need it and can’t afford it. It goes on the wish-list. Thanks Kole!

[@isaiahbarnett9062]

"I love it, needs a wharrny"

[@jpolhamus71]

The button stick is cause he used a heavy button spring so knife would have a great detent

[@LonnieHutchinson90]

Damn that’s beautiful!

[@donniebarajas8564]

😂 "we got a box"! Yew maykuh me laffff Wait.... we just got a pic of your "O" face.

[@Pete_Fish]

That’s a Good Looking Knaf, nice acousti 😎

[@kingsnakejake6205]

Hello Tri-State!

[@jesseleep8921]

The step milling

[@the_knights_edge]

Nice one

[@myjourneyEDC]

Love it !!

[@paullmight42]

Oh cool....another button lock...

[@reneramon]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@mikemclaughlin5255]

Yay😢

[@jpolhamus71]

You can bet a wharnie will be coming soon.

[@KevinSmithandKnives]

I love it! Mine came yesterday. I swear tho, mine is nebula nebula fat carbon and it's awesome.

[@optimuscrime608]

Yes it is actually called American camo carbon.

[@chriswebb3018]

A button lock that id buy. Definitely not interested in the dime a dozen Chinese button locks. The only other button lock I've ever handled is the was the protech Malibu. Everyone should be done with Chinese knives and there would be a whole lot more affordable American made options.

[@Hyboe]

I gotta say, I love your videos man and with all love I have to say, you have the strangest fucking pinch grip I've ever seen anatomically on a human being. I try and fail to recreate it comfortably every time I see it. I'm convinced you have to be a gecko or some kind of humanoid lizard to fully utilize it. Have a great day!

[@TristateEDC]

🤣🤣🤣

[@Imme...1]

America

[@DarkDrako313]

Just got mine, and I'm kind of disappointed... major major button stick, takes two hands to disengage the lock... screws were loose and blade off center, not to mention the finish on the blade seems... less than ideal... pretty bummed...

[@sterlingstoots3215]

Man I was getting ready to purchase one in 80s camo carbon. Thanks for you're honesty.

[@tommyl8452]

Button placement isn’t very pleasing to the eye tbh is this a prototype

[@enriquescott2983]

I have a question for you why do you always shake your head side to side back and forth you look like a cartoon😮😮😮

[@TWknives]

Forgive me father for I have sinned. I am a week behind on the papas videos and i am thirsty for some content. Blessings
