This was a great idea Taylor. I've always appreciated how you don't limit your videos to premium EDC. Some of us don't have a lot of expendable income.

[@jaycowper]

I enjoy finding out about good gear for not very much money.

[@knifedaddy5791]

Thanks for the constant content! Keep it coming!

[@margueritemitchell1829]

I❤️my tiny knipex locking pliers. Hello from British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦👍👋I miss harbor freight. Every year in February my brothers and I used to go down to visit friends and family....which included trips to multiple harbour freight locations.

[@guillermosalas2267]

more videos man!!!! just make more , its so much fun , even tough im not in the states i enjoy every minute of it.

[@ahmedaladraj]

Congrats on 200K, you deserve it 👏

[@Lilshrek22]

Love your content keep up the amazing work and by the way I love your new setup

[@saxcobra895]

I really like that Doyle utility knife and the the driver set. The mini vice grips are intriguing as well.

[@Bazwalt]

Been a bit since I watched your videos. Love the new intro.

[@Mattcruzedc]

I’ve used a master craft utility knife for 13 years while working at Canadian Tire. The only thing about it that would give me problems was the clip because I would clip it to my thick leather pouch and from daily use, the screws would always come loose.

[@adrianzaragoza4983]

Great Vid bro! I like these series. Do a Target one next!! Also you’re looking slimmer dude!🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@davidvance3527]

I keep a pair of the small locking pliers in my camping mess kit. Very useful.

[@evangordon2653]

I personally have one of the quantum (harbor freight) flashlights he reviewed, and i agree with his observations in this vid. I have used and abused that flashlight and it still works. Have dropped it in water, oil, etc and it didn't faze it. Its been dropped more tines than i can count from heights that would ruin most other cheap lights and it survived. Just my two cents worth. Also, loved the vid, great content.

[@Leoblaze24]

Watching this video helped me purchase a good knife from Harbor Freight and it wasn't that bad of a price. I do appreciate you helping with all the knives at Harbor Freight.

[@marcxgajeton]

“You buy things from Harbor Freight you don’t mind having to replace.” Well, you didn’t mention the best part about those Pittsburgh pliers: the lifetime warranty. You only have to buy them one time. If they ever fail, take them back and HF will replace no questions asked.

[@kamshoaf7343]

Looking great man,

[@taifu13781]

Bought that 14.99 knife after seeing your first harbor freight video. I figured I needed the other features and keep it in my car. Definitely oiled up the pivot when i could. Now it can flick open but definitely needs a lot of gusto to do. Kinda wished I bought the other one...but again I wanted the seatbelts cutter and glass breaker

[@nicholasjackson69]

Thanks for showing some affordable ETC I looked up the pry bar that you carry it was way expensive

[@Kleiner_Lutz]

When I saw the Doyle utility knife in the thumbnail I thought it's a milwaukee fastback at first. I edc the fastback at work and I straight up love it

[@youknowwithMartyKauffman]

That secondary camera really crispy

[@MichaelVarlotta]

I have the Pittsburgh micro driver set and it sucks. The chuck on the driver doesn't stay tight no matter how tight you make it. As a result, if you need to put pressure on a screw to tighten it, the bit just falls into the handle.

[@lukepaulson3428]

Picked up a Shirogorov off Harbor Freight yesterday! 💥

[@woodlandreconjoshdrakes5509]

Dude, that watch!! I got to get one

[@ThumperThumper-uo9oo]

I have that flashlight owned it for like a year and daily carry ever ever had a bad experience with it. Always reliable and dropped alot it's my go to light to save my Surefire G2 for

[@kimpaulsen893]

Taylor, the key knife is a old invention. We had some, inherited that were in the neighborhood of 70 years old.

[@1D10CRACY]

Funny enough, I've had one of those harbor freight key chain knifes on my keys for the past 15 years at least. I am pretty sure I paid less than a dollar for it at the time. They use to have a round top, looks like they updated it a bit.

[@Dwizzlejay]

oh crap its Taylor....miss your pocket now reviews and revisits, banging job...

[@tariqkamil7853]

Key knife to open the 2nd package.

[@jugajones]

I went with the tanto blade (better for scraping paint ) the serrations work great on polyethylene line, and I work in the glass industry (breaker is handy once in a blue moon) we will see how this thing holds up in my work environment. my last cheap Tanto blade would come open in my pocket. Think I will use a carry case for this. I have been using the Leatherman T2 and I hate it. Even if it happens slowly I must be able to open my knife with one hand. Oh yeah and thanks for the great vid.

[@michaelallen-scottrogers5912]

At Lowe’s you can get a 3.25” d2 with aluminum scales made by crescent for about 30$

[@chrish5018]

I picked that knife on clearance for $9.97 about a month ago. I bought three of them. Doesn’t look like they’re carrying them anymore. I found them in only one Lowes out of the 5 I’d been too.

[@texaslh9]

Looks like harbor freight just released a new version of the $9 knife without serrations.

[@chrish5018]

I got the old version on clearance for like $7.50.

[@lucm70]

In Canada, we have Princess Auto that is about the same as Harbour Freight but I'd be curious to see what you could find at Canadian Tire, they have great tools and decent knives.

[@XxAlphaDevilxX]

Lol I had the 34 piece bit and driver set and it worked for the little things I needed it for. Always kept it in my car since that was usually what I used it for and somehow I lost it though.

[@joy.kachru]

Could you have a look at Milwaukee Fastback 48-22-1505? Would love to hear your opinion.

[@bryanstone654]

What's the model number of the mini vise grips you liked better than the Irwin? Thanks.

[@rcash3625]

So I bought the 3.6 in gordon from HF SKu 57584 and comparing it to my kershaw volt 2 for the price its dame good... doesn't open like the speed safe. but the feel is basically the same and it comes out of the box SHARP and also made from the same steel 8Cr13Mov. Its a Deff buy

[@TedBorel]

Team Tip-Down EDC for my pockets 😄. I have almost sliced my fingers trying Tip-Up carry.

[@dirteater3169]

That sounds like the knifes fault

[@elmerlopez3924]

Awesome stuff, try the dollar store next!

[@aldever4968]

The 2.99 racheting driver is better than other mini racheting drivers in the under $20. Range. The plastic wheel also comes off for a 1/4 " socket set up.

[@adude7050]

The wide Milwaukee that was wide has on board blade storage.

[@henrycollins2478]

Locking vice grips: the best fidget toy

[@jonathanbullman7058]

About those window breakers. Starting in 2020 all new vehicles have safety glass all the way around so those window breakers are no longer useful. The windows may shatter but they'll remain intact. Saws are required to exit a window now. Besides that you'll have to exit a door or trunk.

[@nathanodle8039]

Going on a long trip this summer and we're stopping by the largest knife shop in the world and they have so many different brands and cool knives any suggestions on what I should look at getting around 150 to 200 dollars. Too many for me to choose from thanks Nathan

[@khalidtaha567]

Hey Taylor I can't seem to find ur old diy videos Did you delete them?

[@kermitthepog7063]

Can you do a video on UK legal knives please

[@chaddamron3877]

picked up a socket set from them for like 14 bux and changed out my O2 sensor in the car , saved a ton of cash

[@gizzmo2875]

There is a third Fastback, it is similar to the large version you have. The difference, it doesn't have the chamber for the extra blades and is about the same thickness at the Doyle. It is my go to work knife and lives in my safety vest.

[@nenharma]

If it's the one with the screwdriver, there's a small slit inside for one blade. Has come in handy so often.

[@garrettmeyer9674]

Edc from Buc-ee’s

[@Cragun.]

Why the hate on the tanto blades?

[@oneshot574dx7]

Where's our Friday night hangout

[@caliswagg707]

Do a Dollar Tree EDC

[@justacameraman4900]

I have that key knife and the black handled one. The black handle one server died as my edc knife for I think a year? I can't remember if I got it before or after the c0of hit, but it worked well for what I needed, only sharpened it a few times. And the key one I got because I like collecting small cheap knives. I have this one (from a different store) that's a rip of of a small spiderco (I think) and the blade says "stainless china", I could def break it with my hand but I find it funny how trash it is. Also I'm only 17 (I have a different knife now but I was 16 when using the black handle one) and I don't ave a job so it's not like I was using it for anything crazy but for what I did, it got the job done. [Edit]: not the tanto style blade, I mean the other one he shows a bit later on

[@bsd9230]

Put these in what case? Anything from HF?

[@quinnmclaughlin7537]

honestly, I own a Paraframe, I'd choose the HF version, the action on my Paraframe is worse and the frame is So skeletonized it's not only a lint magnet, any time I use I am Extra careful to not cut myself, I still own it because I can't even pay people to take it. PS that lil keychain razor maybe just what I'm looking for.

[@mattl5238]

it sounds like your little irwin grips had an issue, ive never had that problem

[@korgan7779]

Yeah, like everything people will try to judge something for what it is not instead of what it actually is. HF stuff is quick or even one time use for the price you pay. If you want something that will last forever you buy something designed to last forever and you maintain it as such. People don't seem to understand that for some reason these days. Common since ain't so common anymore. I actually prefer to use old tools that have already lasted someone else lifetime and then will continue to last someone else after me.

[@that_4007]

There is a penlight for 15$ that’s is called the infray pen light it is 220 lumen idk if that is true but I have one myself it’s good for the price

[@leoslash]

I whole-heartedly believe that he could scrounge random items from the trash bin, delicately place it on a table with fancy slow pan camera angles, combined with ginger reverent touching and make that useless crap seem phenomenal.

[@jmn-5554]

Nice

[@franckjaredd]

I think we have a different definition of edc; I thought edc was things you can comfortably fit in your pockets. Your talking about things in my truck tool box lol

[@jonathanbullman7058]

As far as carry knives my favorite is actually a Milwaukee fast action. It's cheap and sharp. Their fast back utility blade is the best on the market too. Button flip

[@kellywelch3]

For a little over twenty bucks, a ThorFire flashlight is far superior!

[@dragon-id5uj]

"who designed this packaging? it's the worst" 99.9% sure it's that way to deter shoplifters from manipulating the product in a way that allows the knife to open the packaging from the inside. I was edgy in my early 20s and figured out how to bend the box so the blade pierced the plastic bubble...

[@Aaronwaynemack]

died laughing 2:34

[@texaslh9]

When you replace the crappy batteries with better ones the flashlights get brighter.

[@mattharvey968]

How much of this gear gets used versus gets thrown out?😆

[@mercedes6852]

👌👌

[@WhoIsSerafin]

And he still has all his fingers from this 😂

[@RenatoG1848]

The reason the lock up is so tight on that knife is because they had a lawsuit with a knife a couple of years ago, it wouldnt lock and people got hurt.

[@Zaine30]

Hi

[@billrivers7558]

Sad when the packaging is better than the knives

[@smilingbeard5199]

No WFN

[@roberthernandez321]

You don’t even look like you go outside lol

[@adude7050]

the $9 knife is a CRKT rip off.

You can see the dull spot in that cheap folder from a mile away
