I always love all the “that’s not going in the video” moments that did, in fact, go in the video

[@Knives101]

Great choices Bird and Frankie! Hope Bird is doing/feeling better lately. Great video Frankie and Bird aka the best knife/edc couple!!!

[@BladeObssession]

That guy had an awesome selection and I really like y'all's picks

[@Hectorszenshopedc]

Edibles and shopping ❤❤❤❤😅😅

[@SparrowAg]

It's like a mini Blade Show. Great setup there.

[@BirdShotIV]

It’s pretty good for a small town show 👍👍

[@timtitus2532]

Oh yeah I love Frankie's bird art 😁

[@AlexsKnivesSuch]

I was at the gun & knife show in Missouri. Saw a few Olights and Olight batteries. Saw microtechs, kershaw, cold steel too. As far as knives go. I got a Cold Steel Drop Forged Hunter fixed blade.

[@bordercollie7798]

Fun video! Glad you went!

[@hdrider2071]

Miami dolphins bailout😂 nice choices!

[@Lunarpreparedness]

You guys gotta grab a Native 5 Salt in Magnacut. They’re so good

[@TheBDubbs3]

Yeah get one and Rit dye the scales.

[@kennyvaughn3912]

The pricing was really decent on most of those knives you were showing... I will mention that the ESEE 4 has an extremely small handle so I would go for the 5 or 6. My daughter uses the 4. Love your choices of both of the Benchmades.

[@JeffryCollins4199]

Rest choice, Frankie. Your new Benchmade matches your watchband.

[@Christopher33312]

Frankie's comment made me think... At least *most* scars come with good stories 😜

[@danofiremano]

I have the regular Bailout with the Green scales & Gray (M4) blade. I named him Zoro! ~ 😆

[@lwilson95990]

Very cool, never been to a gun show here with a selection like that our a knife store !

[@nvalley]

I still have a frankie bird from bhq on my fridge!

[@Pete_Fish]

You guys are very entertaining, always enjoy your content, Thanks 😎

[@BFVgnr]

Yes, the M18a1 mine, anti-personnel is still in service. And after a bit of looking, I found an Urban EDC Lander in green/black. Traded a sheepsfoot Mini Grip for it. Now to order some of those snazzy scales.

[@dailygearguide]

You both picked out the best looking options 👍 nice work

[@johnhannon8372]

Yeah I seen you two at the Greenfield gun show today didn't want to bother you while you were dealing with Brad but it was pretty awesome seeing you two and you made some great choices with the benchmades knives you picked..👍

[@BirdShotIV]

You should have said hey! Next time

[@dtjarks]

Nice! That orange and teal reminds me of what they call the Gulf livery in diecast. One of my favorite color schemes! Usually reversed to primarily teal and orange as a secondary, but I like it either way! 😊

[@jamesstephenson2346]

..idk bout crazy toy car world but gulf livery color is fue to the gulf racing gt40s

[@TimsSchoolOfFish]

Great stuff! I can’t go to Gun and Knife shows, because I have a terrible affliction for both and will leave completely broke! 😆

[@powerups5434]

Thats a nice looking knife you guys left with.

[@thenextarcher]

Great video. Always love these gun show videos. I might have to reach out to Revolver tactical to see how much those two Microtech LCC are.

[@jamesstephenson2346]

If they were more than 2 dollars each they are overpriced. Complete trash knives

[@jonbwalker]

Revolver tactical has a sweet selection of Pro-techs and Microtechs. And I've been looking for that shot show Fact for a while now.

[@IvIidnight]

I like the Full Immunitys, but I am definitely waiting for the Full Autoimmunity.

[@stephenswindle3839]

I want the full immunity auto as well, but right now it seems hard to find or limited stock going out to retailers, but I’ve got time and patience, and the green and blue gonna be a hard choice.😏💯🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏

[@RobBernhard]

I really like the color scheme of the limited Bailout. There were a couple deals right when they released that I very much regret passing on.

[@bhunt919]

Anyone know what that blue handled benchmade was to the left of the bronzed custom malibu?

[@BirdShotIV]

That’s the Casbah. Now you have us eying that one… Apparently the blue is discontinued.

[@bhunt919]

@@BirdShotIV bout to look it up now lol

[@ronaldmoore7698]

Seen you guys yesterday at Greenfield at Brad's Booth

[@BirdShotIV]

You should have said hello!

[@ronaldmoore7698]

Didn't realize it till I got in the truck you walked around me while you were filming the but you cut me out lol

[@esfwr17]

That Malibu is insane. I love Protech

[@KillianDuncan]

Frankie's full immunity was born on my birthday 🎉 great choices

[@cintage]

I like the steel of the knives you bought. ;)

[@TheBDubbs3]

In reference to that Koenig knife, you may have not gotten one for the same reason I haven’t. They always sell out super fast in their small batch drops and then everyone on the secondary market wants 1100 for an 800 dollar knife. Just kinda hard to get one. I do eventually want to get one though, maybe one of their flipper delete models, they are really excellent. I have handled a few over the years. Good stuff

[@WWEDC]

I bought the CRKT biwa after seeing it at bladeshowTexas but then I found the CRKT Spew and hands down I prefer SPEW over Biwa for EDC. I literally carry it every day unless I’m wearing a dress.

[@BirdShotIV]

Gotta try ‘em out if ya can! 👍👍

[@croakthedj]

Frankie is that a swatch watch?

[@BirdShotIV]

Yes, I really need to do a video on all of them. -Frankie

[@timtitus2532]

I've been told that M4 steel will rust not sure about that and I own a Bailout in 3V steel and grivery handle scales, I think you have the aluminum handle scales, less flex, a couple of good choices and a very good video. Thanks

[@BirdShotIV]

Thanks Tim 👊👊

[@Christopher33312]

That's a good video subject... All your various non-black knives... 😁😁😁

[@BirdShotIV]

That’s likely to be a video series

[@funkycool]

Lmao that random "Wheeeww!" 19:44

[@AlexsKnivesSuch]

Halloweenie I think is a movie.

[@Christopher33312]

That green is cool Frankie (and I'm not usually fond of colors...)

[@Christopher33312]

Well Dang... I like that orange too. I must be going insane 😜

[@BirdShotIV]

It was my first choice but it was her knife. After handling them all, she ended up liking the green the most

[@ssunfish]

Funny, but I'm sick to death of black knives and guns!!!

[@chef_rockyc]

Great grab, I want Both the colors are awesome i want the OTF

[@Veesaki]

Smells the beards and leather the man's world ! You are dead on gun shows the place where I found a Randall Made Model 14 Viet Nam era great video ! 👏

[@williamleidy6713]

Bird is that limited Protech black blade or satin blade ?

[@BirdShotIV]

The one I was EDCing, that model has the black finished blade. Sorry, we should have shown that one at least deployed.

[@birdmanne]

Gun shows here in Georgia only ever have a bunch of otfs

[@BirdShotIV]

I suppose we are lucky to have a serious dealer that does these local shows

[@jasonmccomas7220]

All I have to say is the honey badger will be back in the cockpit and on the F1 grid racing again this weekend!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@BirdShotIV]

haha Not this weekend though, Hungary next weekend. It will be fun to see how he does against Yuki..

[@jasonmccomas7220]

@@BirdShotIV it’s Danny Ric. The smile of F1. I hope yuki and Daniel can now attack the top of the midfield. I can’t wait for Hungary!

[@davegoodridge8352]

Nice Knives

[@mikemckenzy]

I really dig the immunity line. I was ready to buy one when they announced them, but they took so long to come out I moved on and now I’m unsure. Frankie!? Should I get one???

[@Frizzlefry7]

They are really small. If you have Frank sized hands and don’t mind the butterfly 🦋 tax, go for it.

[@BirdShotIV]

They are small, but some people like that. Nwss -Frankie

[@Christopher33312]

It's been a while since I've been to a gun show... Maybe I'll go to an upcoming one to meet your friend 😁

[@BirdShotIV]

3rd 🥉

[@jamesoncross7494]

I like both those Benchmades. The bailout is my favorite but I live next to the ocean so the m4 is no good for me. I wish they would make one in super stainless like the new steel CPM Magnacut!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@the_swinging_axe]

Great video!

[@BirdShotIV]

Thanks for watching 👊

[@joebreeding449]

The green one looks better... I wish you guys would start looking at twosun knives you can almost get them everywhere now awesome..!! 💪😎

[@BirdShotIV]

We have had twosun knives in the past

[@joebreeding449]

@@BirdShotIV would love to hear your take on them. Thanks for all the great video's sir.

[@aaronmulcahy2004]

👍👍& a band aid!

[@Frizzlefry7]

That bailout looks so good. But that almost 300 price tag. 😭. I think I need to get a Ben Blue Godson first for half the price.

[@jamesstephenson2346]

Liven that mall ninja life huh?

[@Frizzlefry7]

@@jamesstephenson2346 yes

[@ssunfish]

I was looking at Shot show exclusive Bailout this week at Sportsman's warehouse. Frankie picked out the Full immunity that I wanted. Woodland green. The M4 is great idea...hope they pushed the thermal cycles, cause Benchmade got a bad name for sending out expensive alloys too soft. I wouldn't get my skirt blown up by them doing Magnacut.

[@ssunfish]

I liked your purchases and your video!!!!

[@brettt1268]

They had a Microtech Stitch I would be losing my mind

[@powerups5434]

put sprinkles on that microtech

[@BirdShotIV]

and then it would sell?? 😆

[@mebourke1]

Why can't ghosts make babies.......because they have hollow weenies!

love that FI

[@kevinAuman1]

Oh man that Chris Reeve fixed blade is one I am after!

[@BirdShotIV]

He probably has it on his site. Tell him you saw it from us! 😜 -Frankie

[@staxx7753]

I think yall both made some awesome choices i like them both & i think they do look halloweenie 😂

[@redbullbundy]

I would have picked the green immunity. It is small but still plenty of knife for 99.9% of what you need a knife for.

[@Hectorszenshopedc]

What a display🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂

[@rcjoe406]

That green benchmade dang

[@alpine1600s]

🤣 Why does that one blotch on Frankie's shirt looks like an AK pattern rifle.🤣👍

[@BirdShotIV]

Appropriate for the gun show 🤷‍♀️

[@KillianDuncan]

Just grabbed the knifejoy 20CV wharncliffe Delica for 89; should be here Monday

[@BirdShotIV]

Spyderco wharncliffe 👍👍

[@andrew5117]

I’m with you on wanting new zt and spyderco designs. Wish zt would go back to the big overbuilt stuff. They just keep throwing the same stuff out and slowly increasing the price of the same models every year. When I bought the 0450 I paid $140 now that knife is around $220ish. We need more from these usa companies the Chinese companies are running circles around them and it makes me sad. I’m not a Benchmade guy but at least they are throwing new designs out even if the prices are a little crazy. Might just be me but I’m not buying a Benchmade that costs more than a Hinderer. Benchmade quality is nowhere near Hinderer but that’s my opinion. Rant over lol love the videos guys!

[@BirdShotIV]

Thanks for sharing 👊👊

[@Hectorszenshopedc]

Frankie needs weed like me😂😂😂🎉😅❤❤❤❤

Civivi P87 Designed by Kaila Cumings

[@riverrunner23]

Those are a couple of nice pickups, congrats. I've got the itch for a purchase and that exact Bailout is one of the 3 finalists. Already having some 3V blades has put it in the 'show' placing, though. Leaning heavily to the Spyderco Strectch 2 XL gray G-10 w/CruWear steel. Thanks, and enjoy.

[@BDevi0us]

Hey! Bronze again

Actually… 4th No medals for fourth 😢

sold

[@unfi6798]

Cowabunga.!

[@briancarroll6139]

This must be a little older. The Kershaw Launch 16 is out and I already have one.

[@ssunfish]

I waited so long for Benchmade Immunity to come out that I lost interest. I got a Paramilitary 2 in green aluminum and it's nowhere near the same knife. Auto immunity looks unique. Now that the pandemic is behind us, the name isn't as meaningful.

[@ElStriker777]

Chris Reeve's knives, in my opinion, are everything what's wrong with the knife world.🧐

[@airadaimagery692]

I totally agree with the need for more American made knives, and I’ve always loved benchmade knives, however, I feel it’s more important that that our American companies support the American constitution.

[@BirdShotIV]

We’ve tried to avoid the politics 😬😬

[@airadaimagery692]

@@BirdShotIV trust me, I’m the last person you will ever see debating politics. But in today’s world it’s just gotten more and more obvious that we can avoid reality all we want, but we will never be able to avoid the consequences of ignoring reality.
