One of the best or probably the best collection video I've seen. The only knife I see missing is the BM 940.. Great knife choices...

I always liked how you will have an expensive, high end knife and have a ton of wear on it. That's what attracted me to your channel. Most guys who plunk down the cash to get a Sebenza will end up having them as safe queens but you actually use them and I like hearing them slick open and closed and can tell they are well worn in.

My first GEC was my #92 talon. I bought it after watching your review years ago. Been a subscriber ever since, and always look forward to your honest reviews.

Im a new knife collector, in the sense I just started reading and learning more. Ive had knives for years of coarse. Just bought a para2 and am waiting for it to come in the mail! nice collection man, good points of view and nice story with the military spyderco. That thing is huge and looks so comfortable!

You have a lot of my favorites (mainly a Spyderco guy) up there! I am similar in keeping no redundant knifes. Two PM2's, but different steels, two Mili's, two steels etc. PJ knife at night has got to be light! Manix LW is a good choice, PM3 is good too.

Same taste in knives brother, as I live in UK my EDCs are usually GECs and my Talon or Outlaw(761213) are at least iegal. I use my Spydy Mil a lot in the kitchen. I help out a lot on a shooting estate and farm so its nice to be able to use most of my collection, which are highly illegal to carry on the streets here.

Looking forward to your thoughts on the Para 3. I sure love mine. So much that I (for a while) forgot about my PM2s. I appreciate the shorter blade for better tip control. Feels just as good as the PM2 in the hand. A little wide in the pocket but easily forgiven for the easy opening with the Spydie hole. I

I bought 4 of the 20cv grips when they just discontinued them and the 154cm models. Got the full size and mini with both blade types and in black or satin and one partially serrated. The mini with the black blade has been bout all I have carried the past couple months.

Nice easy open mod brother, two knives that are really functional that I like is the old Jon Graham midtech razel , just a great shape for use , and I got one of those msg3 the strider/marfione integral , I did a trade and got it for a lot less than retail, but it feels just like a sng but is m390 and way thinner ground than the strider sng, hardware sucks but you can buy the tool for the pivot for 20 bucks but ide expect the tool if I paid retail

The Ritter Griptillians are discontinued but Hogue is making them now. Not sure how they do it, guess they don't call it a Griptillian but its a Ritter and looks just like it with M390. I guess Hogue has the H&K contract now too and they are making basically the exact same knives for H&K that Benchmade did in the past too. I kinda want to get one of those new Hogue Ritters but they are hard to get. I have 6-7 Grips already though not sure I need more. Have a few of the 20cv models with the grey G10 already. Both sizes small and large with both blade styles and in both black and satin and one partially serrated besides my standard small grips with 154cm including one with the tanto which I normally don't like but I like the mini grip and I got one of the new s30v ones too since they were on sale on SMKW for like $79 a week ago so figured what the hell. I have a few Benchmades on the way from Rifle Gear too. With the shit they stepped in chopping up guns and donating to anti gun liberals some sites aren't carrying their knives anymore so I have got some really good deals. Got the Fact for $145, the standard s90v Arcane for $175, and the Nakamura Saibu for $170. I might order a couple more before they are all gone too. They had the Pagan and Infidel starting at $299 too hell of a price but for some reason they won't ship the autos says in store only. They had the Bugout for $90 wanted one of those but all gone they have the Damasteel one for $500 though just don't really want to spend that kind of money on it but its a good deal. Have a couple other Gold Class knives too.

You're not a true knife person I take it. When you get up and go somewhere in the house in your PJ's, you take a knife. Usually something lightweight because PJ's are usually thin and don't support a lot of weight. Delica is a good choice, I usually use my Walmart $3.87 G10 flipper because it's fun and has serrations.
