[@chrisluther8425]

I love Craig Brown's knives. I just recently got the Brown Cortex V2 bolster lock and it is an absolutely amazing knife. It has by far the best action I have ever personally experienced.. And there is something about Herman knives that I just really like. I think the Herman Sting is going to be my next big knife purchase.

[@ryansmock2717]

Wow a sneak peak at the Stovepipe too!

[@GLOCKsh00ter24]

Man I thought for sure Mr. Monochromatic wouldn't like all that color on the Brown, LOL. Also, how about that detent ramp? So nice!

[@ethanackerman2174]

Have you seen his herman?

[@GLOCKsh00ter24]

@@ethanackerman2174 I sent these in for MC to check out. The Ovium is surprisingly slim, skinnier than the Slim, and carries like a much smaller knife than it is. Very fine tip and thin behind the edge. Still just under 9" in OAL though.

[@Stahlwerk88]

He’s talking about MC’s Hermann.

[@GLOCKsh00ter24]

@@Stahlwerk88 ohhhh, I read it has "this" Herman. The question makes more sense when read correctly.

[@peggynulsen1365]

Those are both very fine examples of custom folders. Your close up of the details really show off the talent of these guys. I'll probably never buy a knife that expensiive/well made but I sure like looking at them from your enthusiastic perspective.

[@Cid_1]

Absolutely stunning knives. And a great teaser for the Stovepipe.

[@firstlast2514]

The sound on Herman... Jeeze. That sounds so sick

[@totizabayle377]

Those are beautiful looking knives that are great for EDC. I like my Coldf steel American Lawman and SRl1 lite for serious EDC though. Great presentation.

[@Stahlwerk88]

I like the scales, and I like the anodization, but I don’t like the combination. I’d want the scales on a plain ti frame, or full ti with the anodization. I guess that’s the beauty of custom knives- get it how you want it.

[@carlodanger8187]

That looks like my old Brown. I don’t remember what number it was but same colors and micarta. Fantastic knife

[@Sleepy_spartan717]

I’m not sure which I like more. The Brown is stunning and I love the build. But that Herman is stunning and I love the way they ring on deployment.

[@silentblackdisc]

That Herman has me salivating, love the way they resonate. One day!

[@mattg2935]

Just a heads up. Something weird happened at the end of the video with Stovepipe video

[@tristandauod]

That's a perfect blurple ano!🔥😍 Shifts between blue and purple depending on the angle and light. Not just a single color in between blue and purple.

[@michaelhammond7115]

Wish you could get your hands on one of Herman's Black Ti Slim or Sting folders. All of his knives make that "schtiing" sound. Hard hard to get

[@JustIn-op6oy]

Modified sheepcliff or wharnfoot are my favorite kludged together arbitrary names for that blade shape. It's extra fun when it's also blended with a drop point or cleaver, which only offers more room for silly variations.

[@JustIn-op6oy]

Also - in other videos I've thrown out other absurd word salad describing that shape. I hope people caught on that I was being silly.

[@superrad1659]

That Brown knife is so gorgeous! Saw it on the table during the Live stream and couldn't stop looking at it LOL. Love the color, the quality of micarta, its just a wonderful piece. And the Herman... well, nothing really needs to be said on that one other than "Good lord is that beautiful." LOL Very nice stuff.

[@original696sin]

It’s Blurple. Lol. I like it a lot. One of my favorite Ano colors too

[@Frank-vo9xo]

I think them giving you that tool is pretty cool just like Chris Reeves does I wish hinderer and shirogorov would do the same thing

[@edwardk6764]

Wharn-sheep-cliffe's foot? Love that blurple anodization.

[@ShastaMcNasty0226]

Love that ano on the Brown and it has me wondering if I might be able to get something similar when I finally do the ano on my Spydiechef lol. Also, the close-ups are amazing and I might possibly speak for a good number of the ones loving it on your vids when I say the following. It has so much more to do with the quality and clarity of the close-ups then it do that you are doing one.

[@joshstarkey8883]

"Sheepscliffe" is perfect lol I'm gonna start using that

[@c_solly5892]

And a good close up view of your gaping thumb wound from your battle with Nick. Lol

[@BERETTA9mmUSA]

Beautiful Knives for sure. 🤠👮🏻‍♂️🇺🇸👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. B9USA Sr.

[@kosher8720]

I heard no sing at 03:56 I did hear Wolverine’s iconic “snikt”

[@bwd8664]

I have been trying hard to get a cortex and somehow I kept missing. Now they're discontinued, bit bummed, hopefully a V3 will come.

[@verpine3534]

I really like both of these knives. If I had to choose just one, it would be the Herman. However, wouldn't it be truly funky/incredible if the Herman, with it's awesome machined Ti, was polished and had that blue-purple anodizing with a black CF insert? I think so!

[@HeyItsCoates]

As that camera punched in I thought of "Extreme Closeup!" from Wayne's World

[@jamieluvsknives3912]

I never understood what you meant by the herman knife sings until I purchased a sting now I get it you are so right it freakin sings !!!

[@chriss8206]

Two awesome knives I'll never afford. Very generous person to send them in. Can't wait to see the reviews.

[@metal_complex]

Oh I have to send them back. I don't keep this stuff lol

[@SkunkPunch73]

That as you put it sing is stuck in my head! As for the first piece yeah I would say it’s got an iridescence about it for sure atleast it sure as hell looked like it was changing from blue to purple and back. I bet the actual price on either of them is a decent second hand car 😆. Have a beautiful day M_C stay safe and healthy brother 😘👍🏼

[@JamesWilson-lg7bx]

I have that exact same model same color and everything it’s a great knife but every so often the flipper tab it’s hard to deploy I guess is trying to break that detent

[@mattg2935]

Really like that Herman!

[@robertf3340]

What model exactly is that second one you showed? Can I buy it now, is it available? Wasn’t able to locate it on their website.

[@davidneczypir6396]

Great video.. what would be a great knife for everything i wanted very sharp.. ?..not too expensive either.

[@bamaknifeguy]

Oooooooo Weeeeeeeee !!!! That Herman 😍😍😍😍👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

[@Headhighinc]

I like light houses and seashells

[@jonathanwatson268]

That's really cool ano. Also, that blade is clearly a round ground reverse tanto sheepscliffe. Duh 😂

[@jfriedman5274]

love em.both and that purple blueish ano came out sick on that brown but for me having almost any other knife next to a herman is hard to look past Herman's inanely High level of. craftsmanship he just takes it to another level that other makers would be charging twice as much as he does so I've got a ton of respect for what he does it's just so damn impressive I'm mean seriously who else really does it like him every single time I've never seen one of his knives and been like well that doesnt make sense all his stuff is gold the only other 5hing I could want is a.notch or hole or thumb studs ya know!

[@rustyknifelover4463]

Great pair of knives. @Metal Complex I am hoping to see your thoughts on the Mach51 soon. The Kickstarter is closing this coming weekend. Thank you Richard.

[@charleswood2182]

Like the Herman, but not as much as the one I bought after seeing it I believe here: the Dragonfly. It's awesome, I like the blade better than the one in the video here so I didn't feel I missed out on something much better. I enjoy the Dragonfly more than the two knives I have which each cost more. The Herman is convincing out of the box. The small sebenza 31 I bought, it may take some time to work in. Anyway, they wouldn't be grail knives if I didn't notice the bank balance go down and cringe.

[@DSNugent91]

I've been trying to get a cortex the last 3 mo ths before he stops making them but i missed out. Hopefully I'll find one I like on the secondary.

[@johnjacop]

I like how the note said “doubt you’ll like the color” but he actually loved the color lol

[@steveburdette1478]

Herman now has a dragonfly slim you should take a look at it

[@CB-rk1qc]

I love the brown knifes knife, when you say they are tuff to get how tuff to get like 1 in 10 chance or if I really wanted one what are my odds of getting one and approximately how much do they cost if you don't mind me asking? Sweet knife man!!!

[@mattlombardi54]

Man, those are some really beautiful knives.

[@RadioMcRadioface]

Nice job on the close-ups.

[@chriss8206]

Wow if the herman was switched with the colors. Burple herman .

[@Ty3516]

Those two knives are a beaut

[@Lack_of_response]

Wharnsheep is my favorite new blade shape word. I’m waiting on someone to call something a reverse drop point

[@geezus1515]

Yeaaaaaaahhhhhh the close ups 😮‍💨

[@sverresteinsland5582]

CPM 154!!!!?? At that price i want…. Just kidding, very beautiful pieces of art there, MC! Love how that Herman sounds!

[@AlphaMachina]

Funny, when a knife like that "sings" it's a bonus feature. But when an Eafengrow does it, it sounds like shit and you wanna loosen the liner lock a bit so the detent doesn't "sing" anymore.

[@dr.anthonyforgione4253]

Wow fantastic photography! What camera is it?

[@metal_complex]

My phone. Galaxy Note 20 Ultra

[@russellvonastel7111]

Love this channel

[@LEXxTALIONS7913]

Very cool this one👍

[@scottyh.6992]

As far as spending a lot of money on a knife, I think I would lean toward a Herman.

[@BrandonRideout135]

I swear this man opened the package with a spoon

[@shroomboy432]

I swear he didn't

[@jeffcanyafixiy]

M.C‼️‼️ 👍👍 Gorgeous‼️ Definitely knife art, from the design to the many, many hours of machining. Stay safe, stay sharp! 👍🇺🇸👍🔪

[@briancook955]

Wat was the color on Brown blade

[@shaggy_e210]

Looks like I'm gunna have to sell a kidney and lefty for these🤙🏻😂😭

[@LUC.Knives]

Dang that Brown has gotten around. That's my old knife lol EDIT!! Both of those knives were mine! lol

[@GLOCKsh00ter24]

I thought for sure MC had reviewed an Ovium at one point, but when I saw he hadn't done either I had to send them out to him.

[@patrickharrison4746]

Um what's up with the stovepipe review snippet at the end??

[@metal_complex]

I accidentally combined an outtake from that review on the end of this video. No idea how it happened. I've got an edit processing so it should disappear soon

[@olyone]

what is that tiny knife in your intro on the far right.,... it is super small ??

[@metal_complex]

Curtiss ODT

[@wupwop]

Heck yeah

[@gingerarmstrong4782]

That is dope

[@engineeringgoat8576]

End of the video really confused me haha

[@metal_complex]

Somehow my Stovepipe review got cut into the end of this one. No idea what happened there. I'll have to edit it

@@metal_complex You don't see any design resemblance between the first knife and CIVIVI Elementum?

[@metal_complex]

Lol. Can I meme this? Good God man 😆

[@vbelbel490]

@@metal_complex Sure.

[@metal_complex]

@@vbelbel490 awesome. Thanks bud. Seriously though, Civivi knives are the most bland and unoriginal stuff on the market. Great quality for the money, but everything they make is essentially borrowed basic elements from other designs. It's a fact pretty much everyone has come to accept. The Chinese brands are definitely not the ones coming up with the main designs 😉
