Love your videos! Just want to point out that Kamikoto knives are unfortunately a scam: it's a Chinese company using subpar materials. I don't mind the sponsorships since they pay the bills, but a word of warning for audiences.

Kamikoto knives use low grade SUS420J2 steel, Its high in chromium but low in carbon so it wont rust but it will dull very quickly.

[@robertdeen8741]

You just reminded me of a story I was told. My friend said when he was in grade 4 or 5, don't recall and not important. It was considered an honour to empty the waste paper basket, well can really, for the teacher. Sure enough, his day came and he proudly took the waste paper down to the boiler room. Problem being, the janitor was napping. No problem, my friend opened the door to the firebox, or whatever it's called, emptied the bin and quietly left. Here's where the problem enters. The 2 empty cans of clear spraypaint from artclass in the bin. He was halfway back to class when the loud boom shook the school. On the bright side, the boiler door was only blown off one of its two hinges. He never mentioned what happened to the janitor. Talk about a rude awakening!

[@gnarthdarkanen7464]

A bang that big??? I can promise you neither of those cans was entirely empty... OR that one was at least half filled... Likely a slow leak had let the propellant out... I've thrown many MANY cans of everything from spray paint and adhesive to starting fluid into fires... Growing up in the county (as opposed to city living) has led to some very dubious hobbies... AND a properly empty can of spray paint, clear coat or otherwise, will give a fairly audibly pop, but have neither the umph to shake a building, nor the concussive power to knock even a light sheet-steel firebox door loose of the catch (which usually only requires a slight lift as you pull to open it) let alone misalign or break a hinge... Totally full, and without propellant, most paints will create a pressure but the cans tend to have a weak point, where rupture occurs and a majority of the sounds is rather similar to a rocket, shooting flame outward over several meters... but again, no thunder, no glory, and no shrapnel or concussive damage... Optimal (if I recall correctly) depends on the paint particulars... Red Devil brands tend to do best a bit under half full, and can flash-out like a grenade, giving you about a 30 foot diameter to the fireball overhead... There was a "Dollar Store" paint (not that it was the namebrand of the store in question, only that you frequently found it in such stores in the States... Seemed to perform best at around 2/3 full and those could be truly impressive, though they weren't a reliable explosive mix.. The cans were also somewhat dubious for structure... some holding out well long enough to give way with remarkable explosive intensity and rocking out 50 foot or larger diameter balls of hell and raining shrapnel and burning debris as far as 100 feet depending on size and weight... even if the can had landed well on TOP of everything... Others sputtered madly and randomly, dancing about a bit in the flames and cinders and red-hot coals as little 10 inch balls bounded in various directions and stuck to anything they touched... adding to the freakishness of the site and leaving bubbling and burning trails in their wake... BUT BY FAR, Ether Starting Fluid in any form was the winner... I once tossed a matal bottle of the stuff (the first I'd ever seen) with almost a quart inside... and the fireball that ensued from that burn-pit was something barely spoken of outside of D&D fiascoes or perhaps something akin to the Bible... Don't screw around with Starting Fluid OR Ether... Diethyl or otherwise... That's not a toy! I'd have much nicer eyebrows if I hadn't... ;o)

Get yourself a steel also, not a sharpener, a "steel". Send it in to be professionally sharpened, unless you understand how to sharpen at specific angles or you'll ruin the edge.

They're possibly made of Japanese steel, but it's 420J2 steel, which is quite cheap.

The can't hold an edge, which is why you get the whetstone. Kamikoto is also just another out of many dozens of businesses created by the same scammer from Poland, who moved to China to avoid the authorities. It is one out of 4 of the businesses he created, and only got successful because they managed to fool people into thinking it was good.

Kamimoto knives are a scam!! This was just recently revealed on other channels (along with and associated with Established Titles) Please don't support them, I really, really don't want to have to unsubscribe from T2!

Fake knives, poor steel and not even Japanese, their a Chinese scam.

Mongol reporter: So, Genghis, how did the battle go today? Genghis: We won, naturally. Mongol reporter: That's good to hear. And does your battle pony have anything to add? Genghis: He would, but he's a little hoarse.

Kamikoto Knives is not the real deal. It's a scam owned by the same chinese parent company as established titles (Another scam) you should be careful before accepting sponsors..

[@EriSenshur]

Woke up to a Thoughty2 video, already a good day!

[@googleisacruelmistress1910]

Actually Kamikoto knives are made from 420J2 steel, a really cheap low end type of stainless steel which has absolutely horrible edge retention and should never be used for knives, especially ones that expensive, you really should do more research into your sponsors before promoting them

[@MrBeetsGaming]

You say that like you would have had a clue about it if not for some KZbin videos calling them out... Why is everyone acting like they personally figured this out and are saving the day

[@googleisacruelmistress1910]

@@MrBeetsGaming you say that like it makes this better, it just means that all they had to do was do a basic search to get this information but that they didn't even do that, Plus I actually did know that they were crap before that, I was considering getting some when they first started doing sponsorships on KZbin so I looked this up all the way back then

[@DavidBrocekArt]

Ok this is probably my favorite Thoughty2 title text change: Original: "How Britain Used Rats To Destroy German Factories" Edited: "How This Explosive Bat Almost Destroyed Japan In WW2"

[@CptFuzzball]

Both Kamikoto and Established Titles are scams though.

[@SHADOW-pu6qm]

Love this channel bro, been watching you for years. Glad to see your OK bro wish you all the best and family when 2023 comes bro

Kamikoto knives are a scam you should better research sponsors

[@F1eldHonor]

Horses used by Poland in WW2 weren't quite used to charge at the enemies but to lug around the heavy AT weapons. And ironically horses weren't phased out during WW2. They pretty much served as part of logistics anyway. So what if they weren't as useful as tanks in combat? They have had other uses.

[@loduk102]

@Thoughty2 how do you feel about the recent accusations that Kamikoto Knives and Established Titles are a scam? Do you feel like your audience are being scammed out of their money? How do you feel about encouraging your audience to buy scammy products?

You know, he probably has no control over advertising. I don't mind you being upset at a scam, but automatically being shrill and scolding without knowing who is really responsible for the ads means you just want to yell at someone. Why don't you contact the Better Business Bureau and see about reporting the company you feel is scamming, instead of attacking the narrator....
