Great video, and I’m glad you finally addressed the serious deficiency in the last video.

[@BladeHQ]

😁😁

About the fake carbon fiber on the CEO? It fooled me.

What about smith and Wesson border guard?

[@BOOSTEDLASER]

Never got this...what makes a knife classy...or not?

[@nikosfilipino]

@@BOOSTEDLASER a classy gentleman's knife has: · a non-threatening look to it - small and relatively thin - usually a deep carry pocket clip for better concealment -lightweight ·beautiful/aesthetically pleasing -perhaps a little bit of bling -really nice colors that aren't loud but are noticeable and work well -something you can pull out and people would be intrigued rather than scared. A gentlemen's knife doesn't have to be expensive, but think of it like watches. To the uninitiated you can go around wearing a casio ediface and people may think that looks dope, but what does a ediface look compared to a Rolex if you catch my drift. Both have their roles and places, i wear an edifice everyday. But, when you tryna flex which one you gonna take?

[@will14292]

Ok hear me out lol... You guys should do a "Best Fidget Knives" video. Kinda silly sounding I know, but a selection of the most buttery, snappy, and satisfying knives around would be pretty sweet to behold...

Get a “bolt action” defense pen. I couldn’t see spending money on a stupid pen I will end up losing so I bought a cheap one off Amazon. I think I’m going to invest in a good one now that I’ve tried it out. Bolt action is a fidgeters dream.

[@jamiemacphee3477]

My mini Kwaiken is my biggest fidget knife. So smooth. I also cant help but flip my Bestech Kendo, another good fidget blade.

Nothing says "classy" like clipping your nails in public.

[@keithbeckett1349]

ikr, its all about getting someone else to do it for you in public. like...just who of class cuts their own nails ?

[@MrSiestaFiesta]

Plus, the SD comes with the scissors. The Victorinox scissors can work as nail clippers, without creating such a thick knife.

[@rjosepha]

How about out the Case Toothpick in Mother of pearl? beautiful gentlemans folder

[@ilijabosnjak76]

I was brought up not to cut nails in public i find it unclassy ,just like not wearing belt on your pants 👖 also not classy ...Cold Steel Kudu 😂 😂

[@colinmartin9797]

CRKT CEO is my "dressy" knife. Love it so much I bought a spare. The thumb stud took a week or two of use to get used to, and I would prefer a flipper setup, but the ergonomics and blade are just classy as hell and it doesn't scare people. That said, you arent supposed to put a pen in the outside of a jacket pocket. Inside only

I just brought a ceo flipper. Haven't got it yet. How has yours held up over the year

i've been EDC'n the CRKT CEO for the last few months in the office & it's been fantastic. Very unassuming & stealthy for the office environment, which i feel is needed, but sharp as heck & looks great in the pocket.

I’ve been doing the same but I guess I’m a little too rough on mine though I’ve replaced the pocket clip twice... other than that I love this knife

My pocket clip broke while inserting into my pocket smh. Great knife in all honesty

[@sparks6177]

You aren’t supposed to have pens on the outside of a jacket... ever

[@tuomasholo]

I would polish off the “CRKT” if I were to wear it with a blazer. I don’t want to advertise it’s a knife.

[@88FCRX7]

Well people not in the know would probably think it's an off brand or some weird pen brand in college I kept a SOG Tanto Trident elite in my pocket because of how casual the clip looked in my jeans...then I bought a Microtech Ultratech Bounty Hunter and that totally killed discreet carry lol

[@Epotheros]

Well only knife people would likely recognize what the CRKT means. Could be a good conversation starter.

[@RubleInnawoods]

Only people would would know would be people who know what CRKT is, otherwise no one cares. If they know CRKT they probably like knives too

[@KENNETHCARNIE]

I carry a Laguiole knife in an Amourette wood handle with corkscrew. This is my gentleman's carry.

[@Lawraven]

I’ve been carrying the CEO for a while now. Really a great knife. Very low profile and absolutely fantastic at opening excessive numbers of envelopes.

[@ElTigrre8]

Finally the CRKT CEO gets some shine. Love this knife. Can honestly say that this knife is a must have if you like minimalist knives.

[@sensei1326]

I carry my super classy zhunter as a secondary to my kabar swabbie

[@alwaysanovice]

I have 3 generations of folding Buck knives. All the same model all from my family. I find comfort in that heritage.

[@yogililly1]

My preferred is the slip joint, leather sheath Fantoni Dweller in Cocobolo scale. The Massdrop Gent with custom snakewood scales is my modern day suit knife and considering the Civivi McKenna in Damacus as a good equilvalent Gent folder. Gentleman carry for me is smaller blade, light to medium duty tasks such as food prep for sausage, cheese, apple or fruit slicing. Ideally compliments rest of attire and accessories... Watch, pen, lighter (torch), flashlight, etc. Thus a new video concept.. Knifes that pair well for a certain style. For me three basic styles based upon shoes and watch... Dress (gentleman), sports (high water resistance), and edc based upon ones occupation.

[@landonkettrey9496]

My go to gentlemen’s knife is a Protech Newport “tuxedo”.

[@BladeHQ]

Classy and classic! Great choice.

[@patricksmatrick6193]

That Gold Class Bugout is classy af. My current fancy knife is a Microtech UTX-85.

[@rsmith2658]

I carry my buck spitfire everywhere and it rides the line between hard use and classy perfectly in the all silver color scheme

[@ves4345]

I carry my CRKT/Ruger collab knife as my EDC. Love this little thing

[@puuz287]

fancy knife for me is a laguiole with olivewood handle or lately a lionsteel barlow (ram horn scales) ;)

[@res1dentcyn1c]

Kurt says he only has his coat pockets because he’s not wearing pants, but he’s ignoring the good old prison pocket.

[@kirkjohnson9353]

[@danxthexman82x7]

My favorite classy knife in my collection is the J.Oeser/Benchmade tanto , leather pocket sheath, white-black G10 scales I think and that beautiful tanto blade in 20cv

[@Greg-bz2bf]

LOVE this video! Thanks. I like to carry the Lil Native CF, Lil Lum, Firefly, Vrango or Pingo Ti from Spyderco. I also carry the Olamic Wayfarer, MBK MOG Mini, MBK Slayback and Apache X-series. I rarely carry anything bigger since I work in an office and I have a Large Sebenza in my desk drawer. Many of my favourites are from the great folks at Blade HQ. 👍

[@klahowya_capo]

CEO!! LOVE IT!! That cool ass Benchmade is not chicken wire... its Fish Net Stockings!!

[@kiltymacbagpipe]

CEO answers the question of “what would a folding filet knife look like”. The Swiss army passes the lunch room test while most others don’t.

[@scottf7154]

I found you guys 2 weeks ago. Have watched 80 episodes since. I HAVE LEARNED SO MUCH AND NOW HAVE THE BUG. Wife is in to it also. Bought a benchmade bugout and a Kizer Yorki for myself. A knife Christmas. :) Also bought 3 swiss army knives as gifts.

[@theprofiler8531]

For me the Pro Tech Newport has it all for A gentleman’s carry. Just the right size and design to wear with a suit. The auto feature lends a bit of wow factor when presented for a task such as cutting a piece of thread from your ladies dress she is fretting about. Sharp point for any delicate cutting. I only carry it when I’m wearing a suit so it always looks new. So consider it on your next episode of Gentlemen's Knives.

[@BladeHQ]

Great suggestion!

[@Majk0vv]

I just love the gold accents of my old classic Leatherman Flair, best gentlemans tool ever

[@mattharris5535]

Chris Reeve Mnandi is my go to gentleman’s folder.

[@mlenart000]

I just picked up the Spyderco Smock and it is a pretty slick knife. Something about it feels gentlemanly to me.

[@stoutdog56]

While I like mine too and choose it because it wasn't a leaf shaped blade. I consider it a little to big for a Gentleman's knife.

[@tylerdoestech]

I attire myself in a suit every day. My knives in my usual rotation are either a Benchmade Contego or a Kershaw Link in blackwash finish with the grey scales. Perhaps one day I shall adopt a small fixed blade for every day carry, as well.

[@cmac1100]

And the guy that designed the CEO has the best last name in the world. And its stamped right there on the blade. (Eh, that's why I got one anyway lol) Finally!! The nail clip made it in a knife banter! I've been advocating for it forever! Edit: that carbon fiber leek is also a composite blade...

[@BladeHQ]

Rogers gang represent👊

[@JC-cv3up]

Surprised Zero Tolerance Sinkevich 0450CF didn’t make the list. Carry it at the office all the time.

[@frankbick6953]

Nice job, gents! Always enjoy a good Kurt & Zac show. Lately, I've been digging this "gentleman's" category. To me, this category should be defined as: 1) Svelte, classy/dressy design (i.e., not tactical, although tac knives are probably my favorite of all categories); 2) Ideally, less than 3" blade length; 3) Light; 4) Discreet clip design. Some others I've been thinking about that weren't in video (many already mentioned here though): Benchmade: 485 Valet, 756 Sibert Micro Pocket Rocket, & 380 Aller; Protech: Newport Tuxedo, Sprint; CIVIVI McKenna; WE 914 Anodyne; Gerber: Straightlace, Jukebox, Quadrant & Pocket Square; Kershaw: Launch 4, Chive; Michael Zieba MS3; Chris Reeve Mnandi; Kizer Lundquist.

[@vblack7372]

I know it’s an older video but just got the CEO (thumbstud) today. Love it so far. I may get the flipper in the future but again, so far this is perfect for me at this price point

Hey, you’d probably have a faster response either calling them (if a number is available) or sending an email ASAP. I didn’t look at what you’re talking about but o figured I may be able to help with some suggestions regarding contacting them. Still, I’ve had them respond before (not a complaint but compliment) so you would have good chances getting a response within a few days at least. I believe an email or call would be faster but I’ve never contacted outside of KZbin since I’ve never been in your situation. Good luck though! They are a great company in my opinion so I have an excellent opinion regarding their business practices and customer service.

Did I chirp this guy at all?? No. I offered advice if he did indeed want to contact them. What is the issue with that? Pieces of shit like you guys are why comment sections are absolutely horrible. I was being kind and I get rebuked for it? Regardless of the tone of the OP’s comment, it doesn’t make me culpable to BS when being helpful and kind. Oh, what’s the harm with presenting a well thought out comment by taking the time to communicate intelligently? Before it’s brought up, yes I did have a typo but I’m on a iPads and honestly didn’t feel like correcting the mistake after a quick proofread before posting the comment. So, you guys can go back to your obviously miserable lives because you all apparently needed to demean someone to make yourselves feel better. Also, I’m done responding since it’s not worth my time at all. Edit : Well, maybe I will respond to any further negative comments that are purposely attempting to provoke me...

To solve the issue with pockets getting shredded from knives with G10 grips get some high end 5.1.1 pants with reinforced pockets for EDC knives. Had my 5.1.1 pants for 7 years and wash them weekly they have no color fading, no staining and no pocket shredding.

Fits easily in suit pants pockets business shirt pockets and is in my mind Yhe best all rounder . Weighing next to nothing . My usual edc is an m16folder on the road but around the office or nights out the higonokami is the clear winner for easy conceal carry

[@stoutdog56]

Great choices guys! I would add the CRKT Urban Trapper petite, Benchmade Valet, CRK small Inkosi and Sebenza (sorry, I have them both in the exclusive Knife Art carbon fiber), William Henry E series and while I'm in the high end and after my exhaustive search, the not so readily available Gareth Bull Shamwari and my personal top choice, his Trapper.

I alternate between two knives that I think are great EDC blades for an office setting; the ZT0770CF and the Benchmade Osborne Design 940 with Red Resin Infused Carbon Fiber Handles (although this is a SMKW dealer exclusive knife - sorry BladeHQ). Both have front and rear carbon fiber scales which makes for a very light knife, both are deep carry and both are about 3.5" closed. The ZT is super thin, too, making it very comfortable in the pocket.

All are made with Cobalt because it is non magnetic, therefore does no throw off a compass while at the helm. The marlin spike is titanium for the same reason and comes in handy for a multitude of non-sailing applications. Light weight and I wouldn’t be without one. Gentleman’s knife indeed and a peace officer wouldn’t have a problem with it.

The most important part of wearing a suit and looking classy is flexing on plebs, and the knife in my collection that flexes hardest in my Norseman.

for a fancy knife I use a bugout mini in white with the stonewashed blade easily my favorite knife

[@zachstuff]

Digging the Gold Class Bugout! Use mine each week! We won't tell anyone Kurt, just send us some knives too! Have to agree with aftermarket scales for your knives! So many great materials and choices. Also carry my 940-1 Benchmade Osborne in CF and the new CF Proper! Keepin it classy!
