Thanks, KnifeCenter I was fortunate enough to catch one of the WTG V44X before they sold out.

Great set of collection this week with a couple of unusual ones. Perhaps Knife Center can do an update of "Unusual Cutting" tools for the New Year.? Maybe start with Mocotaugan. Safe new year guys. Cheers from Australia.

[@SamPeabody]

About 30 years ago I remember a guy showing off a pocket knife, trying to see who could figure out how to close it. It was a manual opening, locking knife with a pivoting bolster release just like that Pro-Tech Whisker. This is the first time I’ve seen a knife with a lock like that since that day.

[@jasonmccomas7220]

I have been checking YT all day for the new knives video! Finally!!!

[@bryanmatney4955]

This is such a good channel and weekly for shoppers and collectors, even though I love browsing the catalog, having a detailed opinion to go along with the item, is the main reason I go to knife center first when buying a knife, all the way from Washington State, thanks a lot Dave and everyone at knife center, keep doing what you do, we’ll keep spending the money we probably don’t need to, but do anyway 😉

[@tmille10]

Lord Mr. Vic and those guys put a scary edge on every knife, that edge is glowing sharp, you don’t truly know a cut until you open your skin on a brand new WT Nomad 😅

[@MightyRedHat]

Love the Satyr!

[@joelopez3954]

Im surprised you didn’t call the Microtech stitch a Harpoon spear point. It does look wicked though!

[@danielnarbett]

QSP have stolen my name - I am the walrus! 😂

[@mdubb4855]

Pro Lite got reintroduced in tanto and saber blade styles. They also made a Working Man's branded version and that description really fits the clip point version you demo'd today. In a lot of ways I prefer my Pro Lites over the Air Lite - the Pro Lites have thicker handles with more rounded edges. Don't abuse your Pro Lite (opening paint cans and other "use a pry bar instead" tasks) and it will stay stronger than any so-called "tactical folder" I've seen. Needs a little more often edge stropping than the AUS 10 Air Lite, but pretty easy.

[@bryanmatney4955]

And just wanted to reiterate how impressive qsp knives are, just got a karambit folder for 40 bucks, I have so many tactical/defense knives at every price point and they have to be one of the best value knives I’ve added to the edc rotation, super impressive, it’s no wonder you are repping a qsp knife every week, thanks again

[@chrishinkle5982]

Thanks for sharing bud!👊🏻

[@Bighungry89]

Right on the money with the Dregoth inspiration. I wamted to mix a smatchet and tracker. Work tuff gear did it justice for me

Thanks David - and greeting's from Glasgow , I always tune Into your show , Always an eclectic mix of steel , for myself to salivate over - even though our ridiculous laws in Scotland make it illegal to carry anything but a folder under three inches Kindest regards and keep up the good work

[@nelsonortega888]

Happy new year to you and your team I love watching your videos keep up the good work!! Came across a knife that caught my eye. The Toor Darter Fixed blade would love to watch one of your videos or maybe you have one I missed talking and medium size tactical blades such as the Toor Darter and some others to compare . Price size and sheaths . Thanks again for all you do wishing yall a Happy New Year !!!

[@LarsRibe]

The ProLite is back! Finally- I'll have the blue/clip point. No need to wrap it up. It's a right'a'way user.

[@FrankDyke]

Vosteed Griffin blade type should be called a "toucan-bill."

[@christolley4946]

Those WT knives always get me💙💙💙

[@JAB671]

That Griffin is talking to me. For one thing it looks as cool closed as it does open - maybe even cooler. I may be reading too much into the name but I think 'Griffin' is the perfect name as a Griffin is a mythical beast with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle and, to me, when closed it has sort of an eagle's head appearance but when opened the blade looks like what could be seen as a lion's claw. I like the Walrus, as well, because I like trailing points. Not even sure why because that is not always the most useful, all around blade shape for general use. Maybe because, as a kid (and still, now) I always liked the look of a Sharpfinger. Whatever the reason the shape resonates with me on fixed blades and it is cool to see that shape in an affordable folder.

[@SamPeabody]

I see your thinking on the smatchet inspiration for the Dregoth, but I definitely see a Kukri there too. Put 2 kukris together back to back and you’ve got the Dregoth.

[@Bighungry89]

My main points of inspiration was the smatchet and tracker. It's a amazing thrower to be so big as well

[@mikerollins3088]

I know someone who pronounces it as "Douche-hound"😂😂

[@cylentone]

That Dregoth reminded me of an old Schrade design, the SCHF9. If those old Schrade knives had better scales and somewhat better steel, they would be awesome.

[@jerrypomroy2375]

Happy Holidays, DCA & Thomas! Maybe a question for a KniFAQ. I finally have my wood burning fireplace in working order & looking for a good inexpensive fixed blade option for batoning firewood for mostly creating kindling. Also want it to be able to shave wood to create tinder. These will be it’s only chores, so toughness & edge retention will reign over stainless. What say you?

[@mswindoc]

Would you consider using the Vosteed Mink as a pocket carry?...of course, without the DOTS clip.

[@jamesgoodlet6554]

Protech like Spyderco need to come out with some new knives and designs and not the same old stuff!

[@stonefox9124]

[@rickanthony5147]

Dave thank you and Thomas for your great work. Sometimes I can’t carry my chisel which sometimes I have to pound the handle strike plate with a hammer. Is there a foldable Tanto or chisel blade? To handle being struck by a hammer on occasion that you can recommend. Thanks

I need the WTG Dregoth. I'm not sure exactly what I need it for, but I'll figure something out.

[@shanehatcher9394]

The only time it’s a reverse Tanto is if both edges are sharpened. If not it’s NOT a reverse Tanto.

[@presidentmerkinmuffley6769]

Dregoth reminds me of the Condor Bushcraft type knives, rather than a smatchet.

[@RovingRoninEDC]

Knife Center Specs call it a “Combo Spear Point”

[@Jayeff30]

Is the Backside 7SDM already "discontinued" as noted on your website. That was quick!

wouldn't a reverse tanto be sharpened on the second edge like a tanto?

Do we need a new name for the reverse tanto? We don’t call a Wharncliffe a reverse straight back. Or a trailing point a reverse hawkbill? Or a sheepfoot a reverse drop point?

[@chrisharrison9575]

I need your help a friend has been looking for a knife a coworker had. He splices fiber optic cable. The knife never needed sharpening and was a plus $300 model. It's flipper tab was situated so the action of pulling it out of your pocket would deploy the blade. He's been looking for it for about 10 years.

[@brianrichard1768]

Looking for the knife nobody makes. D2 3 3/4 blade. Deep carry tip up ( kizer type). Thin but Curved handle. Axis lock. Hole (spyderco like) for opening. Glass breaker. jimped thumb ramp. manual flipper with jimped finger guard. thumb studs a plus. Bottle opener a plus. $80 - $100 range.

[@craigvaccaro3572]

Isn't the Microtech Stitch a "harpoon"?? No..?

[@mikesummers8141]

So I’m not trying to be a smart a** here. This is a serious question. Is that Artisan Satyr sold just for looks, just for a knife collection in which it’ll never be used? The reason I’m asking is because the HRC on it is 59.3. Yes, 59.3 for S90V at $200. Are there folks out there that would use it as their actual “working” knife with a Rockwell that low? Again, just wondering. I mean you can get a Spyderco in S90v for less than that and the HRC will be 62, 63. So I’m guessing the Satyr is just a collector knife right?

[@pretentiousname01]

All I know is that different steels have different optimal hrcs. I dont know what it is for these steels though

[@Xander_Park]

I like tacos 🌮 😋

[@mikerollins3088]

Where did you read the Hrc for the Satyr? Also Im pretty sure Benchmade made the S90V Bugout with a 59-61 Hrc. The Piratech Kraken was also around 60-61 Hrc. These are not that far off from and both of them cost about $80+ more than the Satyr, just saying. I actually don't even like the Satyr or even care about S90V because even though it'll hold an edge a while its toughness is horrible!

[@mikesummers8141]

The optimal hardness for S90v per experts is 61-62, but the harder the better for edge retention. The Satyr’s 59 is far from 61-62. A difference of 2-3 when it comes to hardness makes a significant difference. I received the 59 HRC data for the Satyr from Peter’s Heat Treat, a well respected USA facility. My brother sent his Satyr in for hardness testing and it came back at 59.1. My best friend sent his in as well and it came back at 59.4.

[@mikerollins3088]

@mikesummers8141 Im not saying s90V can't take a higher hrc I know it can and I've seen it higher before. I also know a change of 2-3 in hrc is significant, I was just telling you what I've seen as well. Typically the higher you go in hardness you'll have better edge retention but you'll lose something elsewhere (in this case I believe its probably toughness) and maybe they like the balance of where its at 🤷‍♂️. Maybe they're not familiar enough with the steel or for the price point this is where they're at? 🤷‍♂️Idk bud I've seen people run Magnacut at 60-61 in the Rockwall and now they run it 1-3 hrc higher. I find several companies run certain steels a little lower way more often that the alternative whether ots intentional or not. Thanks for letting me knw where you got your testing done cuz I was genuinely curious how you knew (only because the Hrc is not always listed) and most give you a range and not an exact reading unless you do what you did.

Reverse TAINTo

[@emersonb5764]

First one is a prime example of why it’s BS an expensive knife would have a frame lock. It’s the laziest possible lock design and is bested by almost every other lock type in terms of working well without interfering with the pocket clip use and detent strength depending how tight you squeeze it. To each their own, but as far as I’m concerned frame lock belongs on cheap budget knives. An expensive premium knife should have a little more effort put into the design. At minimum do it like the Peña trapper and barlow. Even better, push button, cross bar or shark lock.
