Perfect Score!? TRM Neutron 2: Review, Sharpening, Testing, Bricky, Everything. NEWTron.

[@maxlvledc]

In the first minute I could already tell this would be one of the greatest videos ever made.

[@sixfootseven]

Bricky has made an appearance and spoken. Everything is right with the world.

[@krustysurfer]

A calcium deposit in the kidneys of this channel.......

[@Thexaios]

The world needs you, Pete. Given that Advanced Knife Bro hardly makes videos anymore, someone needs to fill the void of comedic but informative knife wielding deadpan snarker. It's your time to shine, so shine like you gave yourself a mirror polish on the KME.

[@WillEDC]

Your Nick impression 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@lindboknifeandtool]

Your wranglerstar apostle p moment is a lot of people’s experience with you 🤯

[@ryanvalicek7291]

here since you had like 7k subs. this channel still kicks ass.

[@CedricAda]

damn man thanks you’ve been here since the worksharp 20° per side days at leastbl!

[@stevespolarich8449]

This is the "greatest hits" review we didn't know we needed. Thanks for the review and the laughs. I love my Newtron!

[@JustinPet77]

How am I just finding this now? This has to be the best video ever made. Cheers

[@ethanboucher5914]

This video was fucking awesome, cheers from Massachusetts!

[@holdencaulfield1983]

Yours is the only knife channel I subscribe to. The entertainment style is like no other.

[@TheBeater2382]

I know I'm late to the party on this video but I've had my Adam for 2 years and I absolutely love it. Just ordered neutron 2 and magna cut can't wait

[@colinjewell6551]

I love the flicking open of the atom to the SpydieChef very well done!

[@Ocean-ir3cx]

Great Video! Really enjoyed how you filmed yourself using it on the field.

[@krazmokramer]

Nice video Pete! I'm glad to see that I'm not the only person using 2 stroke stops on his KME. KME told me I only needed 1. Thanks for this look at spring in Australia! Can't wait for this hotter-than-hell summer to end in the USA. Stay healthy!!

[@hubrechtpeeters644]

Love how you manage to express such a nice awkward feeling of happiness of getting a knife for free for your favorite knifemaker. Thanks for the many hours of infotaiment you gave me. Greetings from Belgium.

[@knoxknifemods]

Oh man, this was a great one. Even as a TRM fan and owner though I have to jump on the side of CRK, just my little opinion of course but I think they make a sturdier, better balanced knife. The blade of my Atom tends to get its alignment out of whack, to the point that it will rub the liners, if I use it on a zip tie or anything tougher than that. I thought about filming it but I’m not trying to shine negative light on TRM, they are awesome people and an awesome company. Mileage and use varies of course! Loved the video Pete.

[@imgadgetmanjim]

My Atom has the same issue. I have 2 but have carried only one as an edc knife. The blade got out of center twice so I stopped carrying. I did change the scales but wondered if titanium or some metal scale would stay aligned better. The Atom is a very slicy knife, thin and sleek. Not a super heavy duty knife but I like the blade do much.

[@invictus3598]

I really enjoy your honest and candid reviews! I'm certain it must get a bit tedious to identify and communicate distinguishing features for all your knife testing, but you do it so well! That said, the most enjoyable part is watching the effort and skill you demonstrate developing the quintessential knife edge. Truly, I value your opinions, because you're the best! Good on ya, mate!

[@ramzcoldlampin5460]

The feline intro was wonderful! Great video Pete!

[@snakehead324]

Oh how I’ve missed bricky..

[@CedricAda]

big bricky announcement tomorrow

[@sublyme2157]

This may be my favorite video you've done yet

[@beyproctor7673]

I loved this video more than some. The dramatic sky above your sharpening station was a nice view! Now I NEED a TRM knife.

[@AXEUS111]

well done vid. you're right about being off the last few months. it's good to have you back.

[@DullPoints]

Great vid as always! You bring up some interesting points about the vids people expect you to make. I never thought that everyone must want you to review their favorite knifes to validate their purchase. Good on you for going with your own style.

[@j.k.7807]

Thanks Pete for another fun video. It was great to see you back in lab again,

[@fredderf7333]

I believe that this vid has been the one that has amused me the most. Love all your vidz. Thank you for all you put into these.

[@phatmasterq]

u freaking legend pete. never stop.

[@mrc2205]

Hi. I agree I do prefer the TRM’s over the Sebenza. But my real question is, why does the dress fit?

[@edcevo3052]

I don’t give a dam what u get for doing your work! I can’t get the CKF evo 2.0 outta my pocket. The neutron would be a great fifth pocket knife for me. I need to get one. Great stuff man! Keep up these bangers!

[@kymcopyriot9776]

Great entertainment to wake up to, thanks Pete. A lovely mix of factual and frivolous. The Neutron looks amazing but sits well above my spend ceiling for this hobby and that’s okay. It’s made even more okay by the fact that they’re so difficult to get! If the knife was more readily available the temptation to splash cash on it would be more ‘real’.

[@Bigdogtom68]

Very good cut test result, right there with the Magnacut you just did and S45vn. Don't let Uncle Randy use it!

[@kylemccaffrey3003]

When I first started watching your videos I thought, “wow these videos are great! I trust his opinion but don’t think I’d ever buy a spyderco spidiechef” 6 months later I am typing this comment with a spidiechef on my nightstand 😂 love the content and reviews Pete. Glad you’re back to making videos, those couple of weeks were rough without you.

[@randyduncan795]

Do you get any hazing from friends or coworkers over your channel? Thank you for the entertainment and knowledge you share.

[@profesorEDC]

Another home run Pete👍 thanks for the effort and sincerity put in. So great to watch content like this.😊👌

[@yesh3]

i carried mine today, lol! it is a favorite for sure. My Esee Zancudo gets used a lot, too because cheap skinny nuetral-shaped slicer. great vid as usualll.

[@brettforsythe9401]

No bs, this is one of your better videos. Totally get the kind of burnout with the hobby, glad you're getting past it. No shame in being a fanboy of your favorite stuff. Keep up the exceptional work.

[@craigwilliams7046]

Great video Pete! This one belongs in the HOF of knife knowledge and entertainment.

[@tysher7353]

Backyard shots brought a tear to my eye! So majestic.

[@_BLANK_BLANK]

Love the itchy and scratchy shirt.

[@jameshealy4594]

I think TRM is giving amazing value considering the size of the company and the quality of the knives. I still prefer my Sebenza to my Atom, but that is probably down to some price/confirmation bias as well as a few little things like preferring a hollow grind and a chunkier handle. The quality is bloody close given the price difference! Would love CRK to step up to magnacut and let S45 be a short-term patch. This channel is what deserves a perfect score.

[@ranger5281]

Based on comments from Tim Reeve made at Blade 2021, I think you'll see exactly that move. Magnacut would solve a couple problems for them: (1) only one blade steel in their shops (which I wouldn't have thought to be much of an issue, but Tim says it is) and (2) their fixed blades would be tougher (than S35VN) AND highly corrosion resistant without a blade surface treatment (versus 4V or 3V). I think they are limited only by Crucible's output capability/willingness.

[@stevendalton7686]

The calcium deposit of truth! OMG, great video!

[@rustyknifelover4463]

Bricky has spoken. I would love to get a NEWtron. I have the TRM Atom and absolutely love it. It needs a smaller companion.

[@trkman76]

Maybe ur best video yet, just keep being who u are, thats why I tune in, no apologies needed!

[@kylearmstrong6876]

TRM is getting much more from you loving their Atom trust me. Well done and good on you for accepting it

[@DullPoints]

You should have your chickens pick a favorite knife. Scatter them around the yard and see if they walk over to any of them.

[@Cahwai]

Oh pete; i got a little intrigued with improving my spydiechef and put some spare benchmade washers i had laying around that are bigger it’s honestly amazing the improvement. May be something to look at is some bigger PB washers (i went T10 pivot size and longer)

[@datafoxy]

Well I just bought a neutron 2 today. Looking forward to using it.

[@KnifeNinjaEDC]

Congrats on getting in on the drop! Don't forget to join the FB group if you haven't already

[@coreystafford7008]

There’s a reason I have both a large and small sebenza as well as an Atom and Neutron. I agree with what you’re saying, definitely different knives for different purposes but if I only had to keep two of the four both crk knives would go

[@mrc2205]

Hi. I just got a TRM Nerd. It’s a little knife, but it’s a ripper.

[@gaberoo9099]

Crazy medieval chanting...love it.

[@KnifeNinjaEDC]

I really loved the concise and short KME tips 👍 Also to remove old lapping film, a hair dryer is helpful

[@mungo75]

I'm more happy to see the oodie/comfy again than anything else.

[@ronaldbarnes8302]

Nice to see Bricky again. With your awesome opening song you should do a duet with Bricky. Nice knife and review Pete!

[@CM-ef8fu]

I came for a disturbing intro. I did not get disappointed. +1 Love it you crazy legend!

[@bobbthompson]

I bought my Neutron 2 and it's my second favorite knife!

[@oscr_zen]

I might not care that much for the knife, but the sharpening tutorial was low key one of the best I saw!

[@CedricAda]

thanks im working on a full on kme video after 1000 sharpens next

[@oscr_zen]

@@CedricAda superb, looking forward to it!

[@wr3921]

Picked up a Neutron 2 and liked it so much that I followed up with an Atom. I really like them both, but I've got to say I prefer the Neutron, it's the perfect size for most of my mundane uses while still disappearing in the pocket.

[@christamu2]

Nothing could possibli go wrong. This truly was the best video ever. Now let us never speak of it again.

[@feral664]

Sharpening in a snuggie... epic. Your steel reviews give your thoughts on knives instant credibility.

[@doughoffart1247]

I used to think you sped up your knife-cutting scenes, but now I'm not so sure. I think you may have achieved a Fry-after-100-coffees level of speed and enlightenment. Good on ya, Pete

[@OTG414]

Curious if you saw/heard Larrin Thomas comment about 20cv and m390 at bladeshow, and what you thought about it? He doesn’t seem to share your affinity for the steel.

[@williamscott2901]

I would love to see a comparison between the tactile knife co Rockwall thum stud vs TRM neutron 2

[@ep3214]

The comment of the 940 and Wranglestar’s moment in You Tube history rang true to me.

I must fidget with my knife to much. I have a bencmade Crooked river, bug out, bug out CF, and Griptillian that I am procrastinating on sending back for new springs.

[@krismartin1181]

No it because benchmade springs are hot garbage. I changed my springs, I forget where I got them not benchmade but I never had a problem after that. If you do send them back they will break again and again goodluck

Are the external stop pins on that halfbreed doing ok? Looks like they are being pried off.

I must admit I have not been kind to this knife.

[@CSomeWood]

Love the reference to Chris reeve . However I don’t keep them in the same threshold as quality but in my like ability they get carried equally . Love the neutron can take a beating considering the size of the blade it’s like a 3’’ scalpel

Get that extra 10% handle improvement with some Match Anderson TeroTuf scales. I got mine in a burgundy that have stayed a nice pretty pink.

Love ya Pete, but the 945 looks like a withered dryed out pickle. Tastes aside, I do miss my little ol Neutron. Great little slicer.

[@glocjt]

You're a treasure, Pete.

[@KnifeNinjaEDC]

Three Rivers Manufacturing is a wonderful company ❤️

[@suttonmatthew]

The Spydie Chef is much better for slicing. No thumb stud and LC200N, but the whole knife is impervious to corrosion. What about the BM 940-1?

[@gregorywalker4997]

loved the review! if it was easier to get, i'd go for it. that said, i'm already knife poor.

[@bevinmodrak4997]

I don't think you mentioned the liners are titanium as well. Seriously GREAT knives at an unbelievable price and the QC is otherworldly. A good comparison is my Maxamet Sage, which is a fantastic knife at the price point. The TRM is better. Full stop. I have no interest in a CRK after getting my TRM. Hard to pick between the Newtron and the Atom. They're so light they disappear in the pocket. Glad to see the candy cane micarta, looks better in your vids than on their website. Thanks so much for doing this.
