That tops is either a Street scapel or street scaple 2.

[@jcook989]

Great blade 👍

This is just what you wanted us to see. Your closet is stacked with Opinels, isn't it.

"2000 uploads, 99% of it goes back", I like how he forgot the second half of the sentence, "and the other 1% is by Rick Hinderer". (Great video and great collection, MC!)

[@metal_complex]

🤣 your math is 100% accurate 👏👏

[@ryanallen616]

I think it’s so cute how you two coordinated collection videos today! 🤣 But seriously a good KZbin day! Knife envy overload today. Thanks to the both of you for all you do. You will probably never know how many people you helped get through 2020 with consistent upbeat videos to divert our attention from a horrible period of time in history. I’m truly grateful. Hats off to both of you!

A long awaited video! Looking forward to this. First thumbnail impression: So many Opinels! 😯

[@darkness8151]

Thanks for sharing your collection man. I have always been a knife user/enthusiast as well. Thank you for your channel and what you do for other user/enthusiasts like ourselves

[@t_mac010]

Definitely a long awaited video! I totally agree with you about knife use, I've got several knives inherited from my grandad that I don't see ever leaving the shelf.

[@shroomboy432]

Yeah i have 2 knives from my grandfather from wwII. He got them from his parents who got them from a friend. Definitely just showpieces

💡 do a video on the differences in cases pelican/avalanche and how they hold up under different situations

[@30kHunter76]

As a new Protech owner I was a little disappointed when you said the Microtech Stitch was the hardest firing side opener...lol...not that it matters. Both fire hard and they're great knives. I still can't get over how the Protech fires. Love it.

[@cliffhouser9138]

Great video! The Hinderer Bowie is my favorite! I finally acquired a Hinderer after months of checking the retailers daily! It is my "save queen"!!

[@peterpuleo2904]

Those cases are sturdy and practical and portable, but I like to keep my collection visible without the need to remove and insert. Great review !

[@LexBarber]

I love your videos…the Hinderer users part had me dying laughing! “These are users”!

[@joshworth777]

Very nice collection and video 👏. Was looking forward to watching this all day and finally got to it. Was worth the wait.

[@sweetdrahthaar7951]

I’m determined to watch this entire video although it may take me a few days. I’m retired and still too busy to pare out this much time all at once. This will be fun and very likely expensive. Thanks MC 👍🏻

[@roy_geebz]

"I do what I want with the stuff I paid for" perfect response!

[@tobyhall1167]

After you review the Tuff lite mini, you should mod it to remove the serrations and put a chisel grind on it. I did that to mine and it cuts great.

Thank you for showing us your collection my man. You got one hell of a collection. Hopefully one day mine can be like this.

[@edcko10]

Great collection! Thanks for sharing MC!

[@scottdavis3187]

Re: the shortened Kapara... Oh it's "Blade Chops"!!! I was having the hardest time finding them because I thought I heard you say "Blade Shops" and of course that didn't lead to anything. Same here! The Kapara is a fun fidgety but I don't take it out much. ...looking into doing the Chops thing, THANKS MC!

[@JakeLH22]

Currently flipping my Eklipse Bowie working finish. She’s wearing her smooth CF this month. Back to natural Micarta after that

[@jodde73]

The more you look at this knife, the more you’ll like it if you are into design balance and perfection in details. There is a flow in every line, and there are lines that line up in three different positions of the blade. The logo is on the inside of the liner..

[@Sillyworld82]

Real talk, I subbed for the troll scolding as well as the knife talk 😂😂😂

[@khakicampbell6640]

I like your techniques for pre-emptive troll abatement. Nip it in the bud! 👍😎 🤣 (The Hinderers clanking together DID give me a few shivers though, gotta say. lol) Fun and interesting video, thanks!

[@mcsquirgle]

im going to be keeping my eye out for a koenig arius for you. there was just a drop of them on urban edc supply two weeks ago but i wasnt aware that you didnt already have one

[@Darth_Raider_]

That black and gold shaman is sick

[@I_Might_B_Wrong]

I have never been able to stop myself from carrying and using knives. I just get excited and have to take them out. Some don’t get used very hard, though. The only ome that gets ZERO use is a CF Sebenza 21 that I bought as they were being phased out. I carry a 31 now though.

[@arguchik]

Holy crap, that Opinel #13 is a folding machete!

[@picnicsinspace198]

I WILL have my Rockstead someday soon, and I WILL USE IT! I use alllllllll my knives. The Rockstead is my grail knife.

If you take a shot for everyone he says “moving on here” you won’t make it to the end of the video lol great collection! I’m jealous.

[@jonathanwatson268]

On the modding topic; my AD 20.5 will become one of my most expensive knives once transparent knives starts making Magnacut reblades for it.

Amazing. I love every single knife you have. My most expensive is a CR Sebenza but my favorite is an all black Benchmade H&K Axis with a clip point in D2. Nothing special but it just fits in my hand so perfectly and made in the USA 👍🏻
