Qvist Variant PE - New Kickstarter Knife!

[@tkindschi]

Kind of wondering what the supposed advantage of a "swayback" handle is? Just by looking, it seems a bit awkward, but I don't know....

[@leotam3372]

I guess it's "different" - but it's comfortable in paring cuts

[@etaknar]

Swayback let's you put a lot of force on your slice while cutting on a board, because it changes the relative angle of the blade as it comes out of your hand. It's an advantage of geometry. There is a reason so many old knives had that shape.

Thanks for bringing this up. I always like traditional designs in modern stainless steels, especially for that price and from a knife maker like Jacob Lundquist.

[@tunturikuningas5393]

I wish that knife came with a white handle. would be so cool!

[@watsonlitchfield2306]

I don't care for it, but to each their own. Thanks for the review. Great channel.

As soon as you said it came in blue, I knew I had to get one. I don’t know what it is about this knife, but the more I look at it the more I like it. I don’t want to wish away the summer, but I’m excited for November now lol

Really a great looking knife. I will be a customer of Qvist for that price and Sandvik blade steel. Great video!

[@badmunkyedc1]

Interesting swayback design, and the price is very noice!

[@Hobbofett]

I own number 7 of the custom varient, its superb my favorite knife, ill be picking up a production i like the design so much so i can have a beater . Jacob is a great guy to deal with, even if your not buying a knife. Support this hes probably got other designs in his mind, i still havsnr snagged one of his nifty little multi tools yet though.

You took me from from meh to somewhat interested in 10 minutes. Cheers!🍻

[@michaelduke2498]

Thanks for the intro to this knife. I’m a sucker for a swayback. Just made my pledge…

[@aurora_knife_and_tool]

Jacob is such a good dude. Definitely getting in on this. 🤘🏻🤓

[@etaknar]

I backed it. The design called out to me immediately. It's clearly going to be a good food task knife with that handle profile and I prefer a hole to a flipper, also because the tab ruins use on a cutting board. Also it's available in a bright color. Nice.

[@erhon5]

I’m excited for this I really like the design (and I like that he’s from my state) and so its cool to be able to check out the design. Who knows if I like it a lot I may try for the custom
