Marfione Custom Combat Interceptor: Aggressive Beauty

Badass is a word often overused. I think it applies perfectly here.

[@christopherscott1834]

Great video, Microtech always nails it, that Interceptor blade is amazing, definitely better then the hell hound. Keep the vids up, the up close with details is perfection 👍

[@MrSakoTRG]

So glad you touched on the Jimmy Lile & Jack W Crain knives of the 80s. As soon as I saw these on Marfione's IG I thought it is so close in design to those knives (particularly the Crain Life Support knife). It is such a great homage to those 2 knives.

[@chrisallistar8007]

If there was ever a moment I had respect for your love and taste in knives......It was this video!

[@MacroMachines]

When I first saw Jim's videos I simply could not understand the desire for flip knives/ autos, fixed blades just appealed more to me. But as I watched a few more videos I started to understand, now I really understand, and I'll admit I now own a few flippers and just can't get enough of them :)

[@IAA015]

Just got my own marfione custom. The apocalyptic & toxic green hardware & finish. I just couldn't resist!

[@Deathcoreskater-sn9qk]

"If i were a knife maker..." Little did he know.

[@timcourage]

Jim, Jim, Jim sigh love your posts, can't help coming back.

[@mactheknife801]

Awesome score, I am always on the fence to which is my favorite of theirs between the Scarab and Combat Troodon - loving the shit out of that version and the hellhoud

[@troywheatley744]

Well....now that you n your gal are ambassadors you probly track down both eh !?!?

[@utahknivesandgearnick7647]

I have #5 of that exact setup👌🏼 freaking amazing!!!

[@UncleJDCarp]

2:40 - I know back in June of 2016, the use of the similar-to-production scales was a con - but today, those exact scales make it easy to set apart the earliest Interceptors. Gorgeous knives. I have s/n 006 of that same run.

[@nickg2954]

Gotta fucking love that mirror finish..

[@unleasheth]

OMFG I LOVE THIS! GOTTA HAVE ONE. Have had a microtech 120-1 for a couple years now but omfg I LOOOOOVE THIS

[@vansien]

absolute quality review and explanation, many thanks.

[@aarongentile7232]

the mirroring is amazing!

[@HeavyMetallHammer]

i can only press the like button once................... amazing engineering and an even more amazing blade shape

[@randyscj429]

Hello, 😍👍👍 The types that you review, I'd never be able to own one. I'm a certified knife-aholic! Those two don't mix - because I'm totally disabled, forced to live off of what those in DC (that have all the $$) feel as though they're being generous with out having to live off of their own generosity to find out just how "ingenerous" 😞 it actually is (I'm also a Vet, 12.5yrs svc)!!! Your clips are as close as I'll get to them! Thanks, be safe, take care, "GOD Bless", sincerely Randy. L8TR!!!☺

[@sputumtube]

Beautiful engineering and very desirable. Not expecting a full destruction test or anything, but a simple paper-cut demo (and perhaps a glass-break) test would be nice just to show that it can perform as a knife rather than pocket jewellery.

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

Used to do it (watch my really old videos), but it was pointless and just made a mess. What knife won;t cut paper? Even a "decent" knife will do that. Besides, in the price range I typically buy in, a damn sharp edge is a given ;-)

[@StinkyBlack1]

i got a pack of razers for 99c thatll cut paper all day. totally silly.

[@alexaslan7077]

Good taste + score Jim! Let me know when you tire of it, ready to buy it from you! BTW, knew it was only a matter of time until you discovered the flashlights! Next: pens, cameras + fast cars... And thanks for the informative + entertaining videos!

[@Lack_of_response]

the blade of an 80's action movie survival knife on a Microtech OTF is both adorable and scary, like an ewok with a lightsaber.

[@ShastaMcNasty0226]

Holy hell that is freaking beautiful.

[@totenkolps.thompsons.3103]

Simply fucking beautiful....

[@DavidM-lj5yv]

That is a beautiful knife. Wow. I bought 2 MK7 Cyphers last month both with wharnecliffe blades as I really like the wharnecliffe blade style. Have a Combat Troodon serrated d/e on the way arriving tomorrow. But that mirror finish is just amazing. My next purchase will be a Marfione custom.

[@ShadrikEaston]

omg... Its a tiny version of the other two. I know thats obvious but next to each other its REALLY obvious. fantastic.

[@k9teamzagrebskolazapse149]

Interceptor Mad Max,beutiful knife

[@erikedwards5744]

I really like this knife and want one. Everywhere I look it’s out of stock. Where can I find one? I’d be happy with any finish.

[@MacroMachines]

I always loved the concept of OTFs (and this one is by all means exceptional) but the proportion of blade to handle always seems too small to me :P

[@briarhugo3650]

you probably dont care at all but does anybody know a trick to get back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb forgot the account password. I love any assistance you can give me.

[@laytonabel542]

@Briar Hugo Instablaster ;)

[@LCO213]

The mirror polish on blades always looks janky to me. I've never found a use for a saw back knife, and on a small knife like this it seems rather pointless. Might be fun to collect, but i like to collect knives that are useful to me.

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

Then you need to experience Marfione's mirror and Rockstead's mirror. There is no waviness, no haziness, it literally looks like a mirror. Perfectly smooth and ripple free surface with a perfect shine.

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

Also, I'm not a lumberjack, so this knife is useful for me.

[@donovansuh3747]

What about this knife makes it good for self defense?

[@chumccurry1765]

Donovan Suh Sir, with 1500 US dollars price, you may bought 4 product edition of this kind.

[@zach9680]

Still like the Hellhound more.

[@kerryrwac]

Jim as I recall Tony made you a custom OTF because the standard one came as a dagger only but you can't carry one in Texas. Now will the sharpened clip put this one it the "dagger" category ? just wondering. I can't even own one in the great white north.

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

I think it's a grey area because the topside of the blade is not sharpened all the way, only a small portion. It's not a true double edge where each side has equal cutting edges.

[@kothaelser3282]

Do you know any knives which have a mirror-polished bevel and a dark etched damascus flat?

[@theplasticdesert2408]

Beautiful and bad ass.

[@eddie2000ad]

omfg its beautiful, i love this channel for its amazing reviews on quite honestly the nicest flip knives out there, but i personally prefer the full tang blades that don't fold (im no expert on knives by any means so excuse my ignorance to blade names)

[@eddie2000ad]

fixed blades yea that's the word i was looking for

[@Tbone42tx]

ID LOVE TO HAVE THE FIXED BLADE INTERCEPTOR ONE DAY DOUBT I WILL BUT I DO HAVE THE COMBAT TRODOON AND LOVE IT...BY FAR THE BEST MICROTECH BLADE PROFILE!!

[@troywheatley744]

Why are you yelling

[@troywheatley744]

;)

[@NathanRyan1234]

Great video and knives. Well done. Your hands are looking better as well.

[@evilagelist3089]

If you wait too long on the fixed blades, they may not be time frame and production relevant.

[@sharpshizz]

They're legal here in UT and I'd probably carry one if every MT or T.M. Custom OTF that I've owned didn't have failure to lock-up issues. You're not missing much...

[@samcalderon5496]

Holy crap that thing is amazing 🤤

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

It really is. Tony sure can polish!

[@bangbang51211]

That's such an awesome looking blade. I wish OTFs were legal in Colorado.

[@getoffmylawn8986]

if you ever jammed a knife with a saw like design into a rib cage. you will never get the knife back out.

[@NC-curious]

question : why is the cover never made of titanium, a good blade with a good quality cover. yes i know the price is higher but it wil last longer

[@sukumarpaul1949]

This big knife shown in 'Commando' movie.

[@iena71]

Finally a fixed blade on this channel! I'm a subscriber but I never watch your videos about folders which can never be realy used

[@MacroMachines]

It's not a fixed blade. It's based off of one, but Out The Fronts are automatic, not fixed

[@Watchandcutgearchannel]

that is an AWESOME blade... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! great job micro-tech

[@gavinreddig3969]

Ben waiting forever

[@Ditudoequipamentos]

ola como faço para comprar esses tres modelos?

[@timcourage]

This deserves much, much more eloquent than badass. I can't admire Tony Marfione enough. This is just, just forget money, value here is not measurable to my estimation. Money seems like an insult hehe.

[@oliverbladek2137]

Can you make your top 10 knives again, Jim? I would like to know what are your current favorite knives.

[@GFINHK]

A beautiful blade. Would I be correct to assume that the blade locks? In the UK lock knives are illegal :( I don't know when it became law but I used to carry one in my pocket everyday

[@devildust1003]

of course it locks! and lock knives are not illegal in the UK, you can own one, just not for carrying. but this is an automatic otf anyway,not a lock knife, so technically you can't own one anyway.

[@zombieclad5660]

You can’t carry this or own it in the uk cuz it counts as a flick knife which has a button

[@beefcurtainz69]

Omfg!!! I need that!!! Simple as that. It is amazing!

[@bogoljubdjordjevic7528]

I was always wish to know what knife is that Bili machete that is my wet dream from boy age,when he stand on that fallen three and take that huge knife

id love to own one of these fixed blades but if i did it would be a total safe queen and i cant justify the price at the moment maybe one day

[@DanielGarcia-zw8nx]

Love that blade and the otf i recently found out that they were legal here in Texas since 2014 I would love to know where to get that knife at at a budget price

[@Mr.Beastforpresident]

But Jim can it butter a biscuit?

[@TYPHIS4]

Fantastic. Thank you

[@bUtMyRiGhTs]

Why don't you use something to point with while you are talking about the knives? Not only will you save your fingers, but you will also protect the knife from your bodies oils...

[@mikebillman8089]

Inspired by Jack Crain and the knives he made for the movies Commando and Predator.

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

mike billman Sooooo, did you listen to the video at all?

[@mikebillman8089]

Indeed I did... Crain should have been mentioned in the first 20 seconds of the review...

[@timcourage]

Jaw droppingly cool

[@mk-ey2kp]

always see pocket knives. Have you ever looked into fixed blades such as sage blades?

Save or go cheaper. eBay search proelia love the folders especially the tanto D2 steel bearings and only about $150.00

Hey Jim. Can I have this knife, for free? Pretty please?

[@alexpatton9205]

i have a sog lmfao you knifes are fucking amazing1!!

[@ArtemisiaAbsinthium]

it looks like Rambo knife (united cutlery ) and Predator knife (Gerber). Retro design

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

Did you not watch the video where I discussed this in great detail? And no.. the "Rambo knife" is NOT a United Cutlery and the Commando knife (not Predator knife) is NOT a Gerber. The First Blood and Rambo knives were made by Jimmy Lile and the Commando knife was made by Jack Crain. United has a license to reproduce it, and on the Gerber... they're known for design theft so I can't say for certain what they're doing.

[@ArtemisiaAbsinthium]

+Jim Skelton yes i did, but it reminds me on the bowie knife that was in predator, the scene with the indian guy, it was a gerber model but i can't remember the name, it was a time when gerber made his products in usa not china. sorry for my bad english I am from Croatia

[@Jonanthanhyt]

Forgive me ignorance- how is this not considered a switchblade?

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

Who said it wasn't?? "Switchblade" is just a common term for automatic, which this knife is. It's an Out The Front Automatic.

[@Jonanthanhyt]

+Jim Skelton I guess what I'd like to know is, what the legality of this knife?

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

You have to check your local state laws, every state has a wildly different take on auto knives.

I bought a knife for its saw back. It's a 16 inch tactical Bowie knife, the teeth on top go for nearly 6 inches, they are 1/4 wide, 1/4 tall, and are staggered to a needle point, tanto style blade, 2 inches tall and and the belly, and tapers from the belly 4 and a half inches then is strait, it's a monster, you probably wouldn't like it though. Whatever you stick the Bowie into, you are pulling out half of the guts when you pull it out, it's nasty.
