SOG Twitch II: "Cryogenic EDC" by Nutnfancy

[@morbidminister6669]

if knives can talk my twitch II would tell stories that would draw attention to DCFS... if the knife were human. bought it in my college years and i used the thing to slice through hundreds of beer cans. i used it to cut copper wire while scrapping electronics for some spare cash. I tore this thing through carbide sharpeners with sick amounts of pressure before i knew anything about sharpening. i used the spine to pop open beer bottles and beat on things...after all this the knife held up and is still soooo solid. i remember when my twitch II lost a screw from the pocket clip...the knife was so great and meant so much to me i started taking screws out of my macbook to replace the missing screw....such a great knife. has awesome looks and awesome function for what it is.

[@watsonfett]

Carried this knife now for 4 months and its great. One of the best EDC knives I have had the pleasure to carry.

[@05mustanggt91]

Not only are we lucky enough to have knife manufacturers cracking out sick and cool blades but we are lucky enough to have people like nutn cracking out sick and cool videos!! Thanks for all you do for us Nutn and Crew!

[@aznelite325]

the first minute and a half proves you're staying true to the name, nothin' fancy, just the goods. keep up the great work!

[@fcruzcba]

The blades on these knives are what made me fall in love and I'm not talking just about looks but just how tuff they are and how long they hold an edge even with heavy use.

[@jokermann77]

I have this little blade and I LOVE IT!!!!! I've had one for a couple years now! I actually given this little knife as gifts. Its a GREAT blade!!! Highly recommended to my friends!

[@Tacticalopsec101]

I just got mine for $4.28 after taxes! I scored that deal at a thrift store. The knife is still like new but the edge needed to get fixed. Its razor sharp now.

[@brandonb5269]

Saw this video and went out and bought the knife tonight, so far I am very impressed with this knife and have already started using it. Mine does have a little blade play but so insignificant that it should come out with a little adjustment to the pivot screw. Thank you for the recommendation Nutnfancy.

[@ClubAverage]

Honestly i like your intros on the adventure/training videos. Other stuff is not so necessary but i LOVE your still frames and incorporated video clips in your reviews! Just excellent. Keep up the good work Nutn.

[@method55]

I've had one of these as my EDC for the past three months. Use it every day, to every other day. Still reasonably sharp, no signs of corrosion, action still smooth and fast. Love it. Thanks for the review!

[@eanchak1]

My first EDC knife was the Twitch II, 6 years ago when I was in school. It broke in the washing machine, and I carried about 5 other EDC knives before I got another Twitch II, been carrying it ever since. I love it.

[@Psyclaws]

Dude, I’m so pumped to see that you dig this blade! I’ve been carrying a Twitch II M-F, 8-5 for about a year and love it. If you are an IT-type or desk jockey who needs a small EDC blade that is sleek in pocket, the Twitch II is for you. I bought mine despite the fact that you had never reviewed it; I just figured you didn’t dig the aluminum scales. I’m feeling pretty vindicated now that it has found its place in TNP though!

[@ForbinColossus]

Hey Nutn, it's your VOICE that's the music! I mean it. Your delivery and thoroughness keep me tuning in. I don't need music and effects, just good vids and more EDC & tactical coverage. Nice knife - nice review ! Here's to you and yours, Nutn ~~~ best wishes for a healthy & Happy New Year ~~~

[@cowboytgl]

Thumbs up dude! this knife has been in my edc for years. Being a pipefitter I probably abuse it just as much as I "use" it (I.E. scraping gaskets off flanges and such) and it has never failed me. this knife is well recommended!

[@wanted83]

Amen brother! We watch your videos not because of music and fancy editing. Less time spent on that will give us more what we want- the content!!! Thank you for your hard work.

[@OpaKnows]

I'm having another go-around with SOG again lately. Loving it. What I really need is an Aegis. Don't know why I don't have one yet. Love the blade shape. The Twitch is good, too. Like the Vision series, have the Mini X-Ray 5-6 years now, still carry it once in a while, work it into the rotation. Thanks again Nutn, always educational.

[@unomas58]

Music or no music,its all about the content of the video.Another great video Nutn.

[@z0mb3rry]

Just picked up the Twitch II with the Rosewood handle, very pretty knife. Love the point, carry clip on the correct side, and very fast opening. Thanks Nutn

[@rorypenty]

Hi nutn watching here from the UK, ive just bought myself a twitch 2 after watching your review and I have to say I am very pleased with it. Top review as always

[@rickpayne90]

Kickin' it Ole school with Nutnfancy....cool blade nice edc..thanks for bringing it to us, and keeping it real... peace and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

[@Sasquatch230]

What a fantastic little knife, definitely picking one up! Thanks again Nut'n

[@Blessedhart]

I carry my EDC blade in my wasteband semi horizontal. I love low profile knives. The thinner they are, the better for me. I wear dress pants and its the best way to hide it. plus noone would ever know it was there unless i took off the belt. Thanks for the review and introducing this knife!

[@nupersoob]

i really should've went to bed like an hour and a half ago but these knife reviews are so entertaining

[@MATAtheFIRST]

I am loving that little kershaw chill i bought due to your review, it's ROCKING! Keep it rolling!

[@piketactical]

Some people complain about the random chatter in the videos... I like it. It is the personality and backbone of TNP. Ramble on Nutn!

[@bower230]

yep, just picked one up at lowes myself. 36 bucks for a solid assisted opening knife. Great call, thanks nutn!

[@zerodayexe]

Came to youtube for the Kershaw Scallion, and was instantly hooked on your channel. I LOVED my CRKT M16-14M while serving, but it's impractical for civilian carry and it's sat in my hiking backpack since. I wanted something smaller, lighter, black on black, flipper deployment, assisted open, and tip up clip capability (that's why I was interested in the Scallion). I spent most of my Sunday watching your reviews, and I *just* ordered my black/black SOG Twitch II. I'm stoked, thanks for the info!

[@Dubbin1]

Nutn you did it again, I picked up the Twitch II tonight and love it. Got my blue Spiderco Persistence earlier in the week and my blue Spiderco Ambitious will be here in the morning. This is the week of buying Nutnfancy recommended products only. Also tomorrow I will be picking up the Leatherman Wave and to finish my shopping spree off I will have a 4' S&W 686.

[@murr626]

I love the fact your friend is not a knife dude. And he loves it.. I just ordered it. Seems like my perfect EDC. Man ..you teach me so much. it's amazing watching your vids. You Rock! Thank you so much for your info. Can't get enough! I'm learning so much. Amazing information. I'm a sound mixer that travels. Now I know what I can travel with and what I should not because of your info & some others as well through your site. I really appreciate your informative knowledge. NOW I KNOW! And will follow you indefinitely..and others with amazing information. This is what it's all about. Wow! Thanks Nutnfancy! really.. ~Murr

[@WatariKashi]

Excellent review! Almost 110 000 subs, great job Nutnfancy

[@meuberepic]

hey nutin, you are my favourite reviewer on youtube. i don't think you can have quality video without length, and so much of gear philosophy is the given persons thought process. you are amazing because you tell all the thought process and back up opinions with facts.

[@brandonboelter5953]

I would just like to thank you. if not for you I would not have even gave this knife a chance ive had mine for 48 hours and I cant stop using it.

[@jumpa01]

Seriously it is an addictive knife ... be careful if not respected , it will bite you !

[@eappel77]

kick ass review nutnfancy this is what you need to keep doing.... Keep it old school BRO

[@adaman04]

Love the old school shemagh tabletops. Your editing skills are definitely good and great quality, but I usually start the vid then go get a cup of coffee and come back. Haha, keep up the good work Nutn.

[@nutnfancy]

@Psyclaws Glad to help out bro and sorry it took my so long. But buddy with his Lowe's Twitch II got me interested again. Great blade, super fast, and THIN. Your right; it's a great office knife choice.

[@Seth.Caster]

Looks like a good, dependable knife, great review Nutn, perfect vids to be watching when recovering from jaw surgery :D

[@TheDishD]

Great reveiw on a very nice blade once again Nutn', keep doing what your doing brother, in 2-3 years your "style" of vids has gained over 100,000 sub's and countless veiws... enough said. Best wishes and stay safe brother.

[@nutnfancy]

@SergeiMosinJr You're right...it did take time! I think the CS Kukri dominates the KaBar, also in the Project for testing. Don't get me wrong, KaBar Kukri is also awesome but does not have the same swing weight and thickness. However I'm just starting its test phase and I may be in for some surprises.

[@yellow599rider]

Already got a Flash II Now I gotta get another one. Dang it. Oh and dont ever sweat the vids dude, They are the best on youtube. Long or as short as you want em there Nutn.

[@ObserveandChill]

I initially was gonna return this before i even got it in the mail. But as soon as I saw it, I HAD to try it. It's staying with me.

[@kilroyfrills3084]

This about to be my dad's birthday gift.

[@kilroyfrills3084]

Getting the wood handle version.

[@Nurple17]

I just bought a Twitch II, a Flash II and a couple of Victorinox. I love them all.

[@nutnfancy]

@QuietBearr Hey QB, good to hear from you again. Great comment on the cryo too.

[@anestischatzibeis]

yeah i agree its a very practical blade with the right size.in many situations like small detailed work you need a small sharp blade not a big knive.I m a kabar folded knive fan but this is a cool solution!thanks nutnfancy for the cool videos!

[@anger_resolution]

I came across this little gem at the local sporting goods store...I flicked it open once and I had to buy it. Its funny to read the reviews on Amazon, as there are several mall ninjas on there that gave it 3/5 stars. I bought this nice cause its quite inconspicuous yet very functional, yet technologically advanced. I work in state government and wear dress slacks often and this knife says "gentleman"

[@SchneiderStudios]

I subbed to you back when you did knife reviews. Now I miss them.

[@Biohazard3435]

I've had my SOG Twitch 2 (Aluminum) as my EDC for about a year and a half. I think it's awesome for an EDC. I haven't had any lockup issues. Worth the money.

[@foodlovingpig]

You may not have all of the cool visual effects for these videos, but you've got awesome whipping sound effects that more than make up for it.

[@StreakOfBlue]

@nutnfancy I prefer this style over the other review style. That is not to say I don't like the other style. I just prefer this one better. Hope you had a good holiday nutn. Keep up the good work! Thank you for your services sir.

[@itsabitboring]

Great review, nutn. I agree, it's a great EDC knife. I got mine after searching for an alternative to my CRKT Drifter, which is also a great knife that I bought after seeing your review. Unfortunately, I was stopped by law enforcement after the Twitch handle was spotted from my pocket. The AOknife was interpreted as a switchblade. I read my state laws prior to EDCing the blade but I was convinced by the manual that it was not a switchblade nor a gravity knife. So be careful out there. It happens

[@astaschak]

So I just got this at lowes with the aluminum handle, and i just love to fondle it, in the 2½ hours I've had it, I've used it probably 10 times and I've opened it maybe 200 times already lol. I'm gonna say it was the best $30 I've spent to the date so far. It was on sale, and its just a sexy knife.

[@tristantrb]

When I bought mine the pivot screw was a bit tight out of box, wouldnt deploy all the way to lock everytime. Backed it off just a touch and now it deploys nice and fast and locks up on every deployment. So if you guys are having issues with deployment just loosen the pivot a little bit.

[@gigemlaw]

This vid made me realize that I miss some of the old school vids. For simple table tops we really don't need all of the extra production. Get in, get out. Thanks dude!

[@chyweezy2020]

Luv it, just handled that knife and just bought it from my budy for $20 .... He had know idea . .... Keep it up dude

[@ArmedVegan]

Nice old school review. Looks like a cool EDC. Thanks for posting!

[@Psyclaws]

Btw, I went with a Spyderco Persistence for my weekend EDC. Great blade and AWESOME TNP review! Keep up the great work nutn!

[@hagerwarrior]

Thanks been waiting for this review even know I've carried a twitch ll for 2 year and love

[@K4LA55]

Nutn reviews, I buy. Ordered a CS Gurkha a couple of days ago, and now a Flash II. Call it peer pressure. Good stuff.

[@EatCarbs]

Great review! Thanks for all your hard work.

[@silverblotter]

I just got my twitch 2 in the mail just now VERY HAPPY WITH IT AS OF YET !!!

[@MrYACYAS]

Jeez another knife I want now. It only took me 4 months to find a dang kershaw skyline : ) another fine video nutn.

[@chachioriginals]

Its funny i came along and saw this knife review today; just yesterday I installed a replacement pocket clip on my sog twitch xl which I love! my edc, well one of 'em. Anyway thanks for the vids, my post a vid on my xl later.

[@RickMcQuay]

Good knife, been carrying one for four years.

[@TheTacticalDAD]

Great Vid. I love SOG. I own few like the Power Assist B66 Multitool, SOG Access Card 2.0, the Twitch Tanto XL. SOG has great customer service, Love it ! My XL is heavy but the size and the blade WOW ! you forget is heavy. Now I will stay away from the Fusion Primitive Jungle... $45 lost in garbage.

[@crooner022]

Gotta love the these vids, thx nutn.

[@JoeDurobot]

@AllfatherGuideUs I havent been asking for a shooting video with all the sounds effects made by Nutn by mouth.With the "BANG!" when he shoots and the "BING!" when it hits the metal target.That would be priceless. Thumb up anyone who would love to see that happen!

[@GuerrillaJJ]

I've been looking for an EDC. Thanks, great review.

[@dashady187]

Great vid, but I also like the flashy stuff it's one of the things that puts your vids on a whole other level.

[@1AbominAble1]

I love that Kershaw NRG, great knife! Nice to have the ol school knife review.

[@Koolkid736]

just ordered this knife on amazon (along with the kershaw cryo) can't wait!

[@jermlac]

i have one of these knives that i bought to replace a lost leek (same price range). i have really come to like the blade shape and even though it is a little heavier than the leek i was used too, the twitch 2 still disappeared in my pocket. i also love the brushed color clip and the graphite-ish color. the knife disappears in khaki slacks just as well as blue jeans. and because the blade is aus8, it does not have perfect edge retention, but it will sharpen up like a razor.

[@AkeelaTheGhost]

Hey Nutn glad to see a new knife review. Seems most of your videos lately have been on firearms. Still, loving the project and keep up the good work.

[@davk003]

Think this knife is next on my list. They are coming out with one with wood scales and a satin blade. Love the look of it and I have plenty of all black blades already.

[@LANewspace]

Thanks for the review! I have had both the aluminum and Zytel versions for about a year and although I love them both, I actually dig the Zytel one better. The scales are slightly thicker and it just feels better in my hand. I feel the balance is better too, as the aluminum one is a bit back heavy. My Zytel copy does not have the slop that your friend's showed, so maybe he got a lemon.

[@ssthirdgen]

Though not advertised the pocket clip works as a bottle opener. For an EDC blade this is a great feature, even if SOG did not intend it for such use.

[@TacticalBBQ]

nuf said. It's been ordered! Thanks for another great review!

[@wvflash]

ive had mine for two years. Love it! I dont have blade play and it locks up great. really sharp, light with one hand operation. Blade play? must be the plastic version. If I lost this knife would really miss it.

[@darkmummy9]

Looks like a good billboard knife, might find its way into some gift bags of mine soon.

[@KyleObst]

Good timing I ordered this knife earlier today

[@MochiNPRA]

You sure love knives!! Yet another good review.

[@nutnfancy]

@omegahpla Awesome comment...five star. I have heard Tron does indeed suck and as you point, another great example of a poor story. I love listening to a good story teller and I do my best playing the part in philosophy vids. I think you'll like what's coming up. Peace.

[@StreamerHouse]

Fantastic vid, hope to see more

[@jaybeesworld]

absolutely love this blade

[@ddbethke]

Great Review, I now own it and it is the best Knife I have ever owned!

[@fcruzcba]

I love these as edc knives I went out and the twitch II it bigger brother the twitch xl Tanto and are both part of my edc one as primary and secondary nice review

[@TheShadowSpartan1]

just bought the twitch II with the wood handle, cool factor is through the roof!

[@john2737]

I love the old school reviews!!!!!!

[@aTellerOfTruths]

Nutn, thank you soooooo much for NOT wearing clear nail polish when reviewing knives. There's nothing worse than seeing a hardcore edged weapon being filmed up close with pretty fingernails holding it, as so many others do. It makes me feel violated somehow.

[@360chris88]

good video nutn and veri keep up the great work

[@djohnson052783]

Send it back to the factory. I have two, and have seen two others. All of the specimens are aluminum scaled. Great knife!

[@SmokingSevens]

Thinking of picking up a Benchmade, Kershaw, and/or SOG knife sometime soon... But right now I'm drinking the Spyderco Kool-Aid pretty hard right now. In love with my flat ground ZDP-189 Endura 4.

[@yellowbusguy]

I'm amazed that you can squeeze more than 17 minutes out of a simple pocket knife review.

[@cutlerylover]

good knife, good points/opinions about it

[@Gideon_Judges6]

I don't mind the music at all. I see it as a tool to fill the audio gap when showing slides of still photos, short video clips where the audio is not so important, text-laden screens where there is no narration, during intros and outros. I do agree that some folks go overboard with the music, but I don't think Nutn's ever really been guilty of that in any of the video's I've seen.

[@nutnfancy]

@millster101 Good to know and getting feedback like this helps. Some blades that I really like get the full edit.

[@sapphiro]

Hey! nutn great to see old-school knife review. You didn't explain this strange locking system, first time I see this kind. It looks like another weird invention like Benchmade Nagara's Nak-Lok which is very weak and easily develop blade play. I'll stick to my frame-lock CRKT Drifter. Nothing can beat it for the price. Oh btw for khukhri coating I use only patina, It looks sick on mine ;)

[@BradMaestas]

Loving this knife. Got it and a Twitch XL as an add-on to an order at The Clymb and while I find the XL's blade kinda weird and out of proportion with the handle (though it still performs), the II is about as perfect an EDC knife as I have found. Nice review!

[@BradMaestas]

+ford fairlane Size, mainly.

[@ArtisanTony]

I am stuck on my Oso Sweet at the moment. Nice review!

[@jack_batterson]

As an EDC, seems like a SAK, e.g. Cadet or Soldier, gives you more capability for the size and weight. The one-hand opening is nice, but how important is that for a small EDC? I have a Twitch II, and it is a fun knife, but most days a SAK finds its way into my pocket. SAK is hands down the most useful knife ever.

[@MegaCorndog]

This is my #1 edc. Love it.
