[@turtlepwn101]

I really wish they would do another run of the brass and copper versions. The mini is a PERFECT edc size too

[@Capthowdy098]

Currently have the Carbon Fiber Proponent in pocket right now. May have to snag this one as well. I am a lover of the overbuilt everything.

[@garyokie4893]

Bought a G10 version for $55.99 from Amazon. I freaking love this knife! Love the flipper. This is my very favorite knife, even over my premium knives. Every time I flip the blade out it makes me smile and laugh like a kid. What a blast! My new EDC. Great review MC!

[@pretentiousname01]

I really like the “broken sword” blade shape

[@Skyzw2]

It's called a wharncliffe blade shape if you want to look at knives with the same shape

[@chipe420]

So sick. I have the green G10 version and it's freaking ridiculous. It came sooooo sharp. Love to open it with a momentum flick. It's just awesome.

[@HarryBallsich]

It is a beauty. If I didn't buy the black titanium handled one already I'd pick it up.

[@johannessmith1369]

It's going for ~$200 right now on sale on their website. Doesn't seem bad at all for what you're getting at least if you're looking at how much material went in to making it. It's definitely a chonky boy.

[@LionMetalMusic-videochannel]

keep in mind: i don't believe the liner lock are good, but here only titanium (more expensive-S35VN BLADE) versions have liner locks! cost 2 times more then (D2 steel) liner locks !!

[@rsiraistlin2473]

​@@LionMetalMusic-videochannel just bought the titanium 35svn for 180 on their site. This one he reviews. Very happy with it.

[@AKaveman]

I've got one in G10 and one in carbon fiber. Love this chonky slicer

[@Hungrybird474]

Couldn’t believe how easily this knife spidey and thumb flicks , for real . This is a beast of a knife , even in g10 . it’s a chonker . I heard there was a brass version that feels like a brick , lol .

[@NotBrutality-101]

8:38 I couldn’t agree more. Been collecting and a sub for years, there are a few Cold Steel monsters. But this is on its way to me right now and I’m very excited. Edit: I own a Yojimbo, love it. Always wanted to get a jumbo but when it was buying time it didn’t get considered. Once this arrives I don’t think a Yojumbo will ever be thought of again.

[@NotBrutality-101]

After EDCing for a few weeks I can say it’s one heck of a defensive knife.

[@wesleymadsen4357]

I picked up a nib 2017 reate Hills titanium s35 for $120 at an overpriced local knife store. They don't sell reate but I found it amongst their stuff. Man it's Good

[@wesleymadsen4357]

I also bought this knife today off your link lmao. Overbuilt and I can't wait

[@7grahamh]

Once again I’m late on stuff. I just pushed the button on the black G10 model. I hope I like it as much as you guys. If so, maybe I will save up for the titanium one.

[@mikereese15]

Love the proponent and would love to get my hands on this version

[@shawnstpierre3689]

Ordered this version last week can’t wait to get it

[@XrayMike17plus1]

That looks great in Ti frag. Still not my choice of blade style but cool nonetheless. Maxace has several models with additional stop pins.

[@alfredjarry503]

I just got the g10 version in the mail today... Only bad thing about it is flipper tab. You have to wrist flick it every time because light switching it fails every time. But for $70 i really can't complain. I almost bought titanium version several times , but couldn't justify paying almost $200. I guess you get what you pay for... Maybe the g10 version isn't as smooth , or i got one that needs adjustment.

[@ix8750]

Man, I just can't get behind frag pattern handles it's just not my thing. They just always seem to subtract from the look of the blade somehow to me. I've been looking for an RMJ tactical Unmei for awhile and I found some variant with g10 frag texture handles and I was tempted to buy it and swap out a different scale if I can find or make one but I didn't grab it and ever since then I just really regret it...

[@Aaron1NonlyAC]

I absolutely love my knifecenter exclusive proponent, but this NEXT LEVEL mc!!!! Knife Art baby!!

[@Bear-nu8xm]

I have the mini titanium version. It's amazing!

[@TheBeardofDOOM]

Holy crap that is a stunner! Yep. Just bought one. Thanks for being a bad influence 😂😂

[@LionMetalMusic-videochannel]

keep in mind: i don't believe the liner lock are good, but here only titanium (more expensive-S35VN BLADE) versions have frame lock! cost 2 times more then (D2 steel) liner locks !!

[@jonenglert5809]

The liner lock ones are great i have both this one and the black liner lock and I use the black liner lock and keep this one as a safe queen, I've used the black one g10 d2 liner lock one at work in the woods took down a small tree with it worked great

[@LionMetalMusic-videochannel]

​@@jonenglert5809Finally i get black one too, it's great knife(liner 🔒 plus pin)!!

[@johnboschen5018]

Just watched the video and had to order it. I can't wait for it to come in.

[@WhuDhat]

hey MC & ALL I'm in the midst of quite a dilema right now, I'm stuck between choosing one of the 2 DLT exclusives for my first spyderco, the s90v or the cruwear pm2? what are your thoughts/ recommendations good knife people?

[@Errcyco]

That for $200 is actually pretty sweet.. but that’s about a Kaviso Penguin too haha. If I had $250 for a knife right now I’m probably going w the Penguin though.

[@Gizmalien74]

Trying to convince myself I don't need another Proponent, while at the same time, telling myself it would look really good, and heavy, carrying both of them as EDC.

[@trevorwatson4969]

Why would you not show it next to the alpha beast or the Titano!?!

[@-yomamasnuggets1143]

daaammnnn boi that slap!!

[@jasonvellinga9924]

Remove the head rest and look at the 2 ends of the metal rods one has a point it’s for smashing the windows to escape ur car in water or fire situation

[@ahoyt653]

9.2 on the slap

[@bawihmung3544]

Do you trade knives? I got a Marfione/Strider MSG that I am trying to trade for a Stub.

[@krazy_roach1698]

Thanks

[@12345678927164]

It’s like a broken sword made into a knife. Imagine the fan fictions you could write about this

[@StanJurgelsky]

I want to buy one

I own the MM Carbine Rifle, the PMP Alpha Beast V2. I got the AC Proponent G10 blackout and it is a joy. I got the Black Titanium, S35VN Proponent and it is my favorite EDC. That is until my Phil Harvey Gladius gets here. Oh, Metal Complex, Jim Skelton, Beez Blades, Rollshambo and others, have caused me to spend lot's of green backs. You Metal Complex have cost me the most. You should have a context below your channel. MAY CAUSE TEMPORARY KNIFE INSANITY.

[@horacetrull656]

Picked this up for $170 on Amazon.

[@GrimLocke161]

It’s gorgeous, but also not entirely for me, though I would be more interested if it had the blade to handle proportions of the Spyderco Yojimbo.

[@GrimLocke161]

Comically, the blade length on the Proponent is .6” longer than the Yojimbo, but it’s so much thiccer that that isn’t apparent 🙃

[@Zaque-TV]

I have the g10 version. It DESTROYS carpet.

[@nilmergrellik]

swastika logo really popping off on this one on the pivot.

[@gpw8786]

Can't see a Swastika here

[@metal_complex]

Gotta remember the Swastika wasn't invented by the Nazis. Was a symbol of peace originally amongst other things. Easy info to find. Knee jerk reaction to assume Artisan Cutlery is somehow saying "hey guys, we love Nazis"

[@nilmergrellik]

reminds me of one of my favorite Robin Williams' standup bits, "The Confederate Flag is just a symbol of states’ rights and the Swastika is just a Tibetan good luck charm." I'm sure that's what the average person thinks of when they see that. I love my CJRB knives and the Proponent looks wicked, just wish they would take the feedback because I'm not the first one saying it. BTW, love your channel, I wasn't trying to throw shade/hate!@@metal_complex

[@nomadjedimaster7690]

Yo!!!!!!jumbo!!!😂 suddenly runs off like napoleon dynamite 🧨..

[@2_Trillion_galaxies]

The Tip would be fragile,

[@ky1ebetts]

Looks like a seatbelt cutter.😐

[@supersymun]

Thuck!

[@ŞĻĄĄŊĘŞĤ]

I hate Artisan's logo. I know 'hate' is a strong word, but it is what it is. Thanks, MC!

[@rman.]

I hate their knives

[@ŞĻĄĄŊĘŞĤ]

@@rman. Maybe it's because it looks like the Giants' logo. LOL

[@rman.]

@@ŞĻĄĄŊĘŞĤ perhaps but I've never seen a knife from them that I've liked.

[@havoc1zero]

Kind of ironic to hate a symbol that was adopted as a symbol of hate.

[@emesser7087]

This is the real cybertruck knife. Absolutely useless but still kinda cool or does exist

[@zade8586]

I mean cmon, it’s a brick and pretty impractical for most carry, but “absolutely useless” is a big over exaggeration. It’s still a plenty functional knife

[@stuartsmith3359]

Just ordered one off Artisan Cutlery’s website, with and extra 10% off code. 180$ for this awesome massive chunk of titanium and s35vn? Uhhhhh yeah, this was a no brainer for me. 🤘🏻

[@vl7920]

ridiculous

[@rickledford2953]

You have such passion for knives. I respect that about you. And I have researched the price for this knife. And I have to say. It is a really good value for the money. But the knives I buy. I use. and I will pass him down to my son.

[@skycentipede74]

↣ First time I’ve ever instantly bought a knife from one of your links after watching a vid

[@WhuDhat]

if you want the biggest, most intimidating box cutter in the warehouse, Artisian has you covered

[@LonnieHutchinson90]

Sick
