That knifes salesmen is a really amazing singer!!! Great video brother thanks for sharing!!!

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

I believe sales guys got quite a bit more Talent than I do with that bass voice of his LOL. Thanks Glock I appreciate it brother

[@BigRedEDC]

Oh my god man!!! I'm still laughing my ass off from that intro!!!! I wasn't as impressed with it as some were but still a pretty solid knife! Brilliant video brother!!

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

Haha I thought people would get a kick out of that intro. Yeah I was a very impressed with it either which I was surprised because I really like the design of it but it just didn't feel good in my hand. Thanks JB I appreciate it brother

[@NeevesKnives]

I really like this knife, one of these days! Hopefully il get the opportunity. Liked the vid as always lmao

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

Thanks! I think I like this knife a lot better if they didn't have that giant cutout for the compression lock.

[@paddyspotatopeelers2154]

Usa,s got talent for you my man. A voice of an angel. Lol🤣🤣🤣 Atb paddy

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

I don't know maybe a fallen angel lol. Thanks Paddy I appreciate it brother

[@rickkerans8485]

Great intro. Now I got that tune in my head. AAHHHHH.. I like the Shaman I think the palm swell gives it a good grip. Sure that nub is annoying at first. After 10 minutes with it I was able to time it and it became a non issue. Stay safe and your blades sharp.

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

I so wanted to like this knife so bad because it's so beautiful. I don't know if it's because I have a smaller hand that it doesn't fit into my hand quite well or if that blade to handle ratio just throws me off. Thanks Rick I appreciate it brother you stay safe as well.

Awesome vid can't get the song out of my head lol

That is one of those songs that just gets stuck in your head forever lol. Thanks Lee I appreciate it brother

[@hilltopknivesandgear8103]

Well said brother. Good vid!

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

Thanks BJ I appreciate it brother 👍

[@ShortcutReviews]

"The giant chunk".... yeap that pretty much sums it up.

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

Does it not! Like literally that's what I could have said for the review giant chunk of s30v LOL. Thanks Chuck

[@stevepickering2360]

I love my Shaman!

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

I think this is one of those knives that either you love it or you hate it there's no medium. Thanks Steve

[@misterbaker9728]

Been on my wishlist for ever. Just the price damn near 200. I always view it as a Manix with a compression lock

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

I will tell you first-hand it is definitely not a manix with a compression lock. The handle's quite a bit Slimmer and it just doesn't quite seem to have the ergos that the manix does. But this is just me I know a lot of people that really love this knife. Thanks man

[@abnergaldos8695]

Bright Eyes Turn around and sell me all the knives that you have, Turn around and .... Now that was one of the best intros I've have seen.

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

Haha! You know I like to have a little fun with it. I knew I was going to make a fool of myself but I just didn't care LOL. Thanks brother I appreciate it

[@abnergaldos8695]

@@BlueCollarSurvival You didn't make a fool of yourself, I wish I had that kind of confidence. Dont stop believing. 🤣😂🤣😂

Hey that's a good song idea as well!!!

I'll keep running with it as long as y'all keep watching.

LOL! oh gees... lol turrrrnnn arouunnnddd .. good review :)

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

Haha yeah I couldn't help myself on that. Thanks Alex I appreciate it brother

[@eugenemonica5890]

Lmao that was hilarious loved it brother not a big fan of the compression lock other than that really nice knife thanks for sharing brother 👍👍

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

The compression locks have been hit-and-miss with me. I'm glad you enjoyed it Eugene! I'm having a blast doing all of these videos!

[@angelguidesabbath]

Always thought the Shaman was pretty sweet. I could not believe they would let that nub at the compression lock slide. 😏 BCS so did Gary snag that manix 2 after all? 😁

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

I was surprised that Spyderco let that nut go to you know somebody had to have noticed it. I was really wanting to like this knife I mean like really wanting to like it but it was a no-go. Yes Garry actually did contact me and I got his package heading his way. Thanks Robert I appreciate it brother

[@radwayb]

Glad I caught this review for sure definitely not interested in that knife now. I don't know if it's just me but where that compression like is looks like the cut away is huge. Like the biggest one on their knives. Love sales guy!

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

All that cut out for the compression lock is massive. It probably wouldn't be too huge of an issue if you were left-handed but as a righty and a hammer grip it just cuts right into your hand. Haha Sales Guy is something else. thanks Brian I appreciate it brother

[@JadeSchafer]

Great rendition haha. That doesn't really seem like the knife for me. Great review my friend.

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

Haha I thought that would go over pretty well. Yeah it's really not the knife for me either with that big cut out for the compression lock and the blade to handle ratio. Thanks Jade

[@aunali8868]

Epic

[@Orochi_001]

I can’t bring myself to buy any of these compression locks where bits are swinging in the lock finger’s path. It’s way less elegant, which seems like a weird move for Sal & Co.

[@Eldofarmboy]

Let me at it...😈

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

You know I feel like this is a knife that is definitely worthy of the Woodland tactical treatment!!!

[@marshalllaw123]

I'm gonna be hearing that "turn around" every time I try to close my eyes now. I'm ok with that. Also, I agree: that nub sucks.

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

You be picturing sells guy's face every time that song comes on now LOL. I can't believe that nub was even there. Who in their right mind thought that going through the compression lock was okay. Thanks brother

[@johnscarborough4746]

Yeah with a Manix 2 in my collection the Shaman just doesn't fill any need for me.

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

It's funny that you say that, because I feel the exact same way about my manix 2. I was really hoping to like the shaman but it just doesn't feel right in my hand. Thanks John

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

Check out the PMI and Rockwell spreadsheet put together by Blade Banter, Kurt, LTK, Steve, Gerald, Kenny, Elliot, Ryan, Clint, Jack and others I may have forgot to name. This is great information to the knife community and consumers a like. Check it out at docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OepNr_D4lqbdTFqdqWl1rmAd4bOzPzJe6J0iEWrdJGU/htmlview

[@JOMO_EDC]

😂 love it

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

Haha! Thanks Jeremy I had one heck of a time doing it even if I did make myself look like a weirdo.

[@Outpost_76]

The Shaman has been the biggest let down of a knife I bought in a long time. So many ways it could have been better.

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

Yeah I honestly was just a few slight changes they could completely turn this knife around into a good product. Unfortunately Spyderco missed the ball. Thanks Gerald

[@bubbapeppers4354]

Well done Justin... not for me...

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

Yeah not really for me either I was hoping it was going to be but just in turn out to be what I thought it was. Thanks Bob appreciate it brother

[@glalih]

If you don't by knifes from this store you loose.

[@BlueCollarSurvival]

It's the best place in the world to buy knifes LOL
