My favorite budget knife now has a premium version!!!

[@CosmicJhana444]

Thanks!

[@doodysdaggers]

Damn man thank you!!

[@silasking6279]

That is the exact model of the fancy Qubit I want, looks even better than the pics. Def getting one

[@peen2804]

i highly recommend it if youve never had a knife with WE's blue stonewash. it is BEAUTIFUL in real life even videos dont do it justice. my all time favorite scale finish.

[@scottmoore5839]

Just ordered that WE

[@doodysdaggers]

Sweet!

[@solomonkane408]

I got the all titanium version great great knife thanks for reviewing it and letting people see it not too many reviews out there .

[@timtitus2532]

I really want the titanium handled and 20CV blade. Good review. Thanks

[@timtitus2532]

Why not?

[@Allislandrenos]

@@tacticalcenter8658 the satin blade is 59-61 HRC, and the coated blade is 58-60.

[@kathleensmith370]

thanks for showing- so many good knives available

[@Marco_Ye]

Congrats on the new addition. Take care.

[@robertbrunello]

I just ordered a set of skins for my Quibit! Cheers!

[@justinhopkins5036]

From where?

[@ting280]

good color choice for the Civivi skin. I like it a lot. and it looks like Lynchnw has blue ano Elementum clips in stock, idk if they fit this but it looks like it.

[@danpennella]

That’s awesome you finally got one! The Qubit is one of my favorite budget knives as well and the WE version looks like it’ll by far live up to the name. You got the exact version I’d want because I love WE’s blue stone washed handles; I have 3 already!

[@peen2804]

WE's blue stonewash is my absolute favorite finish. the way it subtly "sparkles" gives it a frosty look and that matte feeling the finish has feels so so so soft and grippy vs bead blast Ti

[@danpennella]

@@peen2804 I couldn’t agree more! It’s a phenomenal finish and looks amazing on top of everything else.

[@peen2804]

@@danpennella WE's blue stonewash is my all time favorite finish and its not even a competition. its just soooooooo nice

[@peen2804]

i have 3 blue stonewash WE's too! qubit, vision r, and beacon. i'd love love love to get the new blue falcaria. check that out if you havent seen it. What are your blue WE's?

[@Sal_car88]

I have the purple aluminum Blade HQ Exclusive with S35VN. I feel like its a good in between. Got the skins for it too since its kind of slippery, the skins are pretty cool.

[@ronaldroberts8515]

Thanx for sharing as Qubit is next on my list as I just picked up Kizer original. Like the one u added to the handle and the other is sweet as well. Take care.

[@Hungrybird474]

Nice Doody . Looks like it pops open easily .

[@rshear618]

I really like the stonewash finish on the handle of the WE!!

[@doodysdaggers]

It’s beautiful!

[@turnbasedtoddy7664]

I would LOVE a mini Qubit with something like a 2.8in blade and about 6.5in long open.

[@annasoH323]

Premium Qubit you say? I’m paying attention. It’s cool seeing them upscale and downscale designs along their company lineups.

[@1ecobeast7]

Def one im adding to the collection

[@jakefromohiostate]

THANK YOU for covering the detent strength!! I’ve handled the Civivi Qubit, it felt pretty good as well. Are you going to put those stickers on the WE handle as well?

[@doodysdaggers]

No probably not, I’d hate to cover up this beautiful stonewash 😉

[@jakefromohiostate]

@@doodysdaggers yeah man I had the WE Culex with that same treatment…it does look good. But the slickness bothered me

[@tgonzalez1983]

Nice! I really want one of those but can’t afford another premium knife right now. Looks awesome

[@liamkaloy]

the bigest pro of original qubit is narrow blade thickness

[@stevegareau123]

Nice little blade 👌

[@paulmills426]

I always liked the design of the civivi Qubit. The WE version is a little bit different but still what I'd call a banger. 🔥🔥🔥

[@KnifePleb]

The WE version you show in the video is only $172 using your code in White Mountain right now!

[@doodysdaggers]

Yeah that’s where I got mine! Crazy good price

[@Allislandrenos]

Just got mine. Great purchase!

[@Allislandrenos]

Love the blue titanium! Very stiff action, but I'm sure that it will break in...and the blade looks great! Thanks for the video.

[@SteelAddicted]

I really really think u should check out the remette rhino. The newest one they have its a button liner lock and the detent is amazing. I'd really like to see what u think about it.

[@SteelAddicted]

U can’t remove them but they fold up out of the way I haven’t had any issues sharpening mine. The action on it alone is worth any other inconvenience but I love the thumb studs they land in a super nice spot and there nice and big the front flipper is usable but not the best. The audible noise it makes because it’s a button liner lock is amazing I fidget with it more than any other knife I own

[@SteelAddicted]

No it’s still a very good edc 14c28n steel and it’s a knife not a toy but still the action is so good it’s hard not to want to open and close it.

[@ahoyt653]

I don’t know, I already bought the BHQ exclusive in S35VN….but the titanium….damn it….

[@Careoran]

man that sticker looks awesome, but can not find the link you wanted to add below ... can you please share, cheers

[@Careoran]

Thanks 😊

[@the_knights_edge]

Great lil knife

[@russ_simz]

I got a WE Qubit and yes, the detent is super snappy, but mine doesn't lock up if I open it too hard. The knife jumps out of the lock in the open position, when I flick it maybe 3 out of 5 times. I'm hoping it will break in after a while and correct itself. It's just one of those things, every once in a while you get a knife that is missed during QC.

[@doodysdaggers]

Interesting, mine doesn’t do that. Yeah might break in, if it doesn’t you could always send back

[@peen2804]

hows your qubit fairing? the few people ive seen mention this issue have said it breaks in and no longer is an issue. was that the case for you?

[@peen2804]

does yours still do this? from what i understand this can happen to a lot of button locks in general and usually will break in and stop happening after some use

[@Mggibboni]

Love mine and I've been waiting on you to pull the trigger! Strong "detent" right?

[@doodysdaggers]

Extremely strong

[@Mggibboni]

@@doodysdaggers you'll also notice that the cutting length on the WE is a bit longer as well!

[@trlarosa]

Looks amazing. Love the aluminum handles. I’m actually attracted to the Civivi version for the bottle opener. That is so convenient! 😂🍻

[@chandlerchhem2128]

I just got the polished TI, my copy is kinda difficult to open compared to my other knives. Are these just naturally stiff to open? Not use to the stiff feeling, thanks

[@doodysdaggers]

They’ve got real stiff detents, yeah. I love it, but it may be a little too stiff for some. Give it a few weeks and it’ll probably go wear in and become easier

[@johnwatson8112]

I just received the polished TI as well. I absolutely can not open it with the thumb stud…detent is too tight. I contacted Deadwood Knives and they told me it was meant to be opened with the button lock…..LOL, wth is up with that? I applied some KPL and we shall see what happens.

[@johnwatson8112]

@doodysdaggers……maybe we can work out a trade!

[@doodysdaggers]

@@johnwatson8112 haha that’s some bullshit they don’t know what they’re talking about. Yeah lube it up, maybe even put a drop in the plunge lock too where it’s rubbing on the tang

[@chandlerchhem2128]

@@johnwatson8112 mine broke in really nice!! It gets smoother! I thought the same in the beginning but it wears in so smooth

[@lord.needham]

Sweet.

[@SwedishPete]

Video idea: Doody thinning down the blade with a belt sander 😉 No this is I think the first we knife I'm actually thinking of buying.

[@doodysdaggers]

I’d ruin the knife haha

[@chemicalburn3320]

You love those kizer pocket just as much as me bro! They fit on freaking everything and work great look amazing also!

[@sobxscooter8157]

Great comparison. The Civivi holds my heart, but the WE is on the wish list.

[@doodysdaggers]

If you love the Civivi you’ll flip out over the We 😉

[@LowkeeSmooth]

The blade is actually longer on the WE

[@JorgeGarcia-ph1lw]

Do you find the action with the thumb studs on the WE Qubit to be stiff sometimes painful? I notices that with some titanium scales this can be a thing? Any thoughts ? Love your content btw

[@doodysdaggers]

It is very stiff yes. It will loosen up after a week or so

[@ThePrime957]

Alright I’ll buy it

[@doodysdaggers]

Good

[@Monsoonpain]

I don't own a Qubit...it's seems so simple , plain.. why the fuss ? It is THAT great ? Should I get one ? I got a RAT in D2 , after the hype...and I DID LIKE IT ALOT

[@doodysdaggers]

It is that great 😁

[@NeevesKnives]

great video and great knife, im kinda jelous of that blue stone wash it looks damn good under the camera i can only imagine in person.

[@doodysdaggers]

Oh yeah in person it pops!!

[@browsman2328]

I have the Civivi Qubit and the button lock Elementum. The Qubit is a good knife with an excellent blade shape and it came very sharp from the factory but I don’t like the looks of the bottle opener and I prefer a flipper Like the Elementum. Just a personal choice, and I’m not going to pay We prices.

[@Barney_Greenway]

What I find really funny, that in Germany the Damasteel version sells for over 600, I think 🙈

[@doodysdaggers]

Geez!

[@awc-bm9qb]

What pocket clip is on the civivi?

[@doodysdaggers]

It’s actually a Kizer deep carry clip. Available on their website

[@BennyBladez-]

All right Dood l, I’ll get one.

[@richardrivard487]

The we or the Trm newtron

RGT

Ok I buy

[@klrktsr]

What's the color of the skin? Is this Ranger Green?

[@doodysdaggers]

No it’s natural or light brown or something

[@klrktsr]

@@doodysdaggers hm, I don’t see that color there. Did you mean caramel?

[@DrDrewdude]

Idk which one I like the looks of better especially with those RGT stick ons

[@doodysdaggers]

It does look pretty sick with some faux inlays

[@knifenoob5411]

14c for 65$ is no great . Should be 85$ for S35vn. That would be a good deal. That’s the trick nowadays a really well built great action knife but less than meh steel. Now a great deal is S35vn for around 80-100 . I’m waiting and only buying knifes like that

[@benjamingeiser]

Blade HQ has their exclusive Civivi Qubit in S35VN for $69 right now! (March 21, 2024)

[@russholcomb]

don't like the bottle opener durrp

[@paullmight42]

It's a sick knife design, i just hate that it's a button lock...The We is gorgeous with that hand satin...

[@bicskamaxi648]

This knife has the worst action I've ever experienced. It ruined my finger. It costs three times more than the Civivi version, it has better materials and worse action. I dont understand why manufacturers blast or put coating on the surfaces of the lock. When they don't do this - like on this cheaper Civivi model - it works like a charm.

[@peen2804]

i like how you think your singular unit of a knife is representative of all units of said knife. I also like how you give 0 explanation or context for why its "the worst action" or what "ruined my finger" even means. i have a the black one and the blue/satin both with very, very good and identical action lol. if something is wrong then exchange or return it. a radical thought i know

[@royal1956]

Am I deaf or did I just listen to a knife video with no mention of blade steels ?

[@danpennella]

At the 7:37 mark he mentions it is 20CV

[@youssefamarirable]

Yup he did mention it

[@carvedwood1953]

Original is better. Can't change my mind. And the bottle opener is a great feature.
