My Epic 1-Off Battle by Frank Fischer: THE Game Changer.

[@SlightlyNotorious]

This, mate, is my favourite knife I've ever seen on your channel. It's a piece of art and I want it bad.

[@hupkat]

Best quote of the video "Dont be mean to blind people". Had me cracking up! Another fantastic video on one of the most beautiful knives I have ever seen. Great job Jim.

[@ssavage666]

I'm absolutely in awe and after seeing your pics I'm sold. I won't rest until I have one of these beauties for myself!!!! Congrats Jim I think this might just be the crown in your collection. Frank makes one gorgeous knife man congrats

[@ingoddafeario2757]

This is the most unbelievably gorgeous knife ive ever seen!

[@vermin33]

You have a lot of beautiful pieces, but this one has raised the bar to the heavens. I love it and it is truly one of the best looking I have seen. Worth every dollar. The blade is amazing and the handle OMG.

[@thedougler516]

By far outta every review you have done, (and I have watched them all) this knife specifically franks' Battle is my favorite. And you have done a ton of videos but it just has that special overall quality that hits every mark in my book. Well done Frank, well done Jim!

[@brocksdaddy081910]

This has to be the best blade shape and grind I've ever seen.

[@wilkesbryan9707]

Super nice "Battle" I had spot in Franks books and your video inspired me to order this particular model!! Keep on rocking the great videos out !

[@CasonovaCorkClub]

Truly a Work of Art, .. and i don't throw those terms around loosely, since i'm a art lover. I never knew they made folders like this until i came across your channel today, .... I THANK YOU!

[@AceRazor]

You're a sharp mind Jim. Lovely to enjoy your videos! Well thought out and pointless to argue as some would. Tremendous score.

[@blue13sarge]

Congrats on that magnificent piece Jim!!! I am so happy for you that it has you so excited! Frank hit that one way out of the park! I cannot wait to own one of these beauties!

[@dacathey]

Frank's level of quality is very impressive. When I got my Battle it was so much above what I had experienced with any other knife in my collection that I started thinking about selling my cheaper models and having just a few quality knives like this. I can see that your knife has enhancements to mine and I'm sure by the time I get my next one they will be even better. Great video and camera work BTW. Wow my 2nd shoutout.

[@PioneerSaturnDougie]

Absolute piece of art. Something to be truly proud of...for both Frank for making it and you, the owner.

[@Thatrollingmaster69]

Damn ! This knife is just perfect ! I am truly amazed by the amount of details, precision and work that have been put into this knife ! This is by far the most beautiful knife i have ever seen...EVER ! Congratulations Jim and thank you for showing us this masterpiece ! I can't wait to see how you are going to follow up this knife, but keep it up ! Have a nice day sir !

[@Seveneleven44]

What a beautiful piece of craftsmanship. Truly a masterpiece.

[@joeyz989]

This knife just looks perfect! I can only imagine how the action on it feels, would love to feel it for myself! My favorite things about it are that amazing looking marble CF and also the orange peel/egg shell finish on the bolsters. They contrast each other superbly! Great vid Jim thanks

[@WyattWillis88]

Good God I've never seen a better knife or knife I want more and I'm certain I will never see its equal for the rest of my life. I can't even think of words to describe how perfect a design and execution this work of art is. Words like stunning, mystifying and exquisite dont seem strong enough to describe how this makes me feel to see

[@TacticalXRays]

congratulations, truly outstanding work. thanks for this awesome look in hd! you're having a massive hard on for this blade, and rightfully so!

[@Mosseri]

Thank you for sharing this stunning one of a kind piece!

[@HairyBlackBeard]

That is indeed a very wonderful knife, more so but as you said, there are no words really.

[@yinzer86]

Just when I thought you couldn't top some of the knives you've featured, you bring your custom Battle to your channel. Perfect! Just got a Brous Mini-Division today! Thanks for your review on it. BTW, I can't believe a few people would criticize this video. They must suffer from "blade envy". If you have the means to enjoy a $2k+ knife, then go for it! Thanks for all you do for all knife guys out there.

[@9872354610]

I think it's a good contrast that, back-to-back, you post a Will Moon with all of its flaws, sent out from a maker that clearly doesn't have the same desire to send out the best possible knife he can, and this masterpiece from a maker that won't rest until it is as good as he can possibly make it. Regardless of the prices of different custom knives from different custom makers, I think we can all agree that every maker should be delivering the best possible product that they can to the customer. Maybe some day Will will get that concept, Frank's definitely got it. Thanks for always being honest in your reviews, keep em comin'.

[@miccont09]

Well worth the wait to see this knife reviewed, thanks for sharing it with us Jim =)

[@joshuajacob6402]

That knife has such precision in it and I really appreciate the hidden hardware. To me that is knife making at its best. I'm a huge fan of Stan Wilson's work too. Definitely a work of art.

[@ronaross1]

My,my - that is one of the greatest knives I have ever seen.

[@GreatToastMigration]

What an astonishing knife. That has to be my favorite knife in your collection. That is my grail knife.

[@Jonas-I]

Couldnt help it! Got in on the wait list. Thanks for the video man.

[@ronaross1]

Hi Jim - I started collecting 5 months ago and was perfectly happy with production knives. Then I discovered you and you have been tempting me with all the goodies you show. This morning I sent Frank an email for a customized Battle, hopefully I will hear back, but I know you will end up costing me a lot of $$$. Keep up the good work. I joined So. Calif Blades and am handing out fliers for the Expo.

[@Mojo-fg7ps]

8 years later and I still come back to see this vid! Jim, you got to do a long term review on this soon just to put her on every one's mind again lol!

[@chaosbeyblader]

i would be afraid to carry this beauty on edc especially if i rode a harley as yourself but i know how you are an d respect you, to be fair you truly made me realise how much i adored knives and now have started collecting i thank you from the top of my heart jim nice knives

[@COBHC8890]

My favorite knife you have personally!!! Its perfection!!!!!

[@KingsPoolandSpa]

My favorite knife of yours. I'm a sucker for re-curve. Beautiful knife

[@PedroMagrico]

Love that CF, and what a clean knife, one of my favorites from you Jim. Hope to have a chance to get one of frank's knives, but on my list I still need to get a Jim Burke VSS for Grail Quest!

[@weidmannsheil007]

Absolutely stunning!

[@jps3b]

This may be my favorite knife of all time. If I could only have one, this would be it

[@DjRjSolarStar]

This thing is fucking insane - possibly my favorite knife now, with the Yuna Hard 3 coming in second. Absolutely stunning.

[@SPCMRNLEON]

I have to get one of those! That is sooooo sooooooo nice! Really like the combo you went with. I would've done the same things. Although maybe I'd like a Starfire Damascus blade! :)

[@erikxroads]

"Don't be mean to blind people!" lol You crack me up Jim!

[@vermin33]

Well cops are, they tase, beat, shoot and kill deaf, dumb and blind people. must make it right

[@swollennut6995]

If you ever get a chance to flip a custom G&G Hawk R.A.M, man it sounds like nothing I've ever heard before, its like the calking of a gun . That is one beautiful knife Jim, your a lucky man.

[@jameslester6785]

I really love this knife in all aspects. It is so perfect all others seem to pale. A true benchmark.

[@billomead]

Best knife you've ever reviewed, and that is saying something...

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

Thank you, and I agree.

[@willcox5056]

That tanto recurve blade shape is my all time favorite. Amazing

[@bloodngutts7298]

My eyes are bleeding from looking at is knife. I makes poor Wills knife look even worse. I love Wills work and I know he will make your new knife absolutely killer.

[@neilmilburn5149]

A Masterpiece, it should be in a glass case in a gallery somewhere.

[@andyjohnson9402]

Coolest flipper ive seen ever. just started carrying a Katana.( love it ) but .....dang. tanto harpoon Awesome.

[@CNBaker94]

Putting an order in with Frank is the best email I ever wrote. Now I just have to wait.....

[@shogekimura]

oh also its pretty bold of you to say this is the best flipper you've ever handled, EVER!! i mean with the caliber of knives you come across, thats a pretty damn ballsy comment to make, but ill take your word for it ;)

[@joeygonzo]

Incredible work. The Balabushka of knife makers now is FF.

[@Ab82903]

Beautiful knife! Congrats

[@vdub5818]

Everything is done so well on this knife, but damn did he do a great job void filling that marble carbon. I absolutely LOVE marble carbon, but finishing it is a PITA. I need to shoot Frank an email asking for some tips with it. I void fill then finish sand and I always seem to find more voids afterwards. Wears on you after the 3rd or 4th go.

[@Eyeball1975]

That seems a bargain for $2000. That is a stunning bit of work.

[@rbrittne]

Eyeball1975 quite a bargain...ill take a dozen....There are some people that if you tell them this plate of shit tastes so awesome for $500 ...they will buy and eat it..... sound familiar dude?

[@shogekimura]

ok last comment… I WANT THAT SOUTHARD TARSUS! so absolutely beautiful. ever since i picked up the spydie southard, all i want is a custom…someday she will be mine, oh yes, she will be mine...

[@lanehoward8612]

the fit the finish is wonderful

[@enriquesmith3249]

One of the best I seen

[@mikehughes4824]

Well hell, everything I was thinking positive has been said! Epic knife . You lucky #&*#!!, Enjoy!

[@ummtone]

That is a stunning knife! I would love to edc this!

[@lanehoward8612]

the 4.25 blade length would be the one I woukd want :))

[@captainganja0]

Frank Fischer is the man. Great knife Jim .I would do anything for a knife like that even butt 2 butt lol. Peace & Love 2 All.

[@sharpshizz]

Speechless...

[@drumnbass8]

One word for this knife... wow

[@moviking]

That would be XXX Knife Porn, congrats on owning that fine piece of artistry. And thx for the new wallpaper :)

[@taazen74]

Oh.........fantastic.......

[@shadymattuk]

Speechless! I got nothing to add that you haven't said already!

[@CasonovaCorkClub]

THE ROLEX of Knives!

[@3signets]

Mr. Jack A$$ You know your watches !

[@Tbone42tx]

THAT'S ONE NICE BLADE!!!

[@3vil3lvis]

This is a work of art. In your will you should donate it to the Smithsonian.

[@brandonfeole6336]

I kinda wish that the lock up was slightly later. I realize it's probably strong enough, but I like having the lock a little bit later. Beautiful knife, I would like that with mammoth tooth (or whatever it's called xD) scale.

[@veristoic1993]

DAMN, did he hide the lockbar cutout behind the cf?!!?!??? What kind of sorcery...

[@ciroxmen]

Where can I buy your knives because I really like the style of the blade I'm a huge collector and want to be able to find unique ones that I can collect

[@8bitflea]

Now I really can't wait for mine

[@shogekimura]

these kinds of blades (and most of your current pieces) are no my style at all, but i absolutely love the craftsmanship. i can appreciate the hard work and dedication that goes into each and every one…something that cannot be said about many, many other knives on the market and even the ones that are my favorite. MY dislike is only skin deep my friend. bravo on being able to get one happy for you

[@tcharlesmiranda2637]

You can see the influence of his father Todd Fisher and Stan Wilson 2 Master knife makers'

[@SweetSpotSC]

Sweet! Great video.

[@Rockapotamus24]

That's an amazing knife and craftsmanship. 2 grand well spent to open boxes and cut phone book paper. Or maybe that would be even too much for this knife.

[@vladtepez873]

Masterpiece

[@slayinputangg]

All class...

[@brd2deth939]

Perfection

[@Kowan57]

Gorgeous knife. No way I'd pay that much for a knife and use it though.

[@jamesp4896]

I love this knife

[@NeptuneKnives]

you really love knives. hey look oromoto is here!

[@zachridgway7416]

Beautiful, though the pocket-clip sticks out like a sore thumb - it's probably the only thing I'd have different. Your collection and uber-high quality videos are always my first choice when I need some exquisite blade-porn. Thumbs up, Jim!

[@robertvisina7692]

…for followers of the religion of fit and finish, the video elicits a near Pavlovian response. Makers and collectors alike take note: Created by Ron Lake and taken to amazing levels by Stan Wilson, Frank Fischer practices the new standard daily…he is destined to be one of the greatest…

[@harleymgalleryknives6081]

How much do you miss this piece? Your soul must be broken!

[@harleymgalleryknives6081]

SiNcereX Yes he did.

[@James-lo5ne]

Jim, did you every think about putting the mother of pearl into the pocket click on your archangel?

[@c1829]

Incredible Jim! Congrats. On a completely unrelated note, what do you think of Les Voorhies knives?

[@matsonruddellcertifiedarbo8815]

So cool, nice grind

[@bryangarcia3941]

i just bought my first knife off of amazon and its nothing great but its something, and im already really into knives. this 1-off here is beautiful and i get why its so beautiful to you as well but i cant see myself dropping thousands on a knife. do you really use these knives or just for show ? either way, great collection

[@alessandrothugknifeforhate4517]

Booom beautiful explosion

[@wuslon8]

As an object this is amazing, a piece of art really. That said, in my book that isn`t a knife. With those two recurves it will be almost impossible to sharpen for anyone but a master sharpener and while that shape is good for stabbing and slicing ordinary cutting will probably not that easy. Now, some of you will probably say, big deal, that knife was not created to do ordinary things with, and that`s exactly my point. No offense, Jim. Have fun with your knife.

[@livefree306]

Awesome jim

[@trancization]

Would love to get a knife like that. Time to save up $2000 and see if I can get into the books

[@trancization]

Would love to learn knife making from Frank. Do you think he would accept an apprentice

[@dddeeeaaabbbsss]

you should do a full collection video i think people would like to see that

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

I have been asked many times. I won't be doing one. My entire collection is here, just in individual videos.

[@SD260785]

hey Jim i want to see your whole collections of knives man ,can u show us all your collections in a video plz

[@everydaybladesinc]

Why do so many of the Custom builders do recurve Blades? I’ve never been a fan of recurves.

[@SDknives1]

This is my new grail

[@Smegger]

Epic knife Jim

[@xlasvegan7x]

Would be cool to have you as a gun reviewer.

[@James-lo5ne]

wow jim... this thing is a 10

[@georgecostanza2695]

It does look like it's held together by sorcery... or glue😂
