The TJ Schwarz Overland Sport Knife: A Quick Shabazz Review

Today, we'll take a look at a smaller version of a very interesting knife from TJ Schwarz, the Overland Sport.

[@MikeJ602]

He’s back!!! Ohright

[@davidmiller1938]

My Sport is fantastic. The behind the edge geometry makes it very slicy. The Magnacut runs at 63-64 Rockwell. I sharpened mine at 17 degrees per side on a Wicked Edge sharpening system and love that long lasting edge.

[@Valheru808]

those Ulti Clips are nice. I use one on a small fixed blade in the pocket, and love it. This knife looks very interesting. Thanks, Nick!

[@Soyokaze404-yc1dt]

If Jschlatt and Swaggersouls had a baby with a higher pitched voice, Shabazzy would be the outcome.

[@CSGraves]

I too wince at the 'preachy T' on UltiClips. Reminds me of Spartacus' suffering on the Appian Way. That said, I haven't found a better solution for many of the smaller fixed blades with kydex sheaths in my collection.

[@slalomnorth]

Dcc 2.2 clip is pretty solid as well as the mummert

[@CSGraves]

@@slalomnorth I'll look those up, thanks!

[@ericj1500]

Nick my boy, nice to see ya man!! Love the overlands personally.

[@pauljosephbuggle3722]

I'm not a fixed blade guy (illegal in Spain) but I think I'd go for the bigger one. It looks very useful.

[@AndyMcGehee]

TJ is absolutely wonderful to work with, too. He seems to exist in a world of pure reality rather than one in which “our policy” is treated as if it were a law of physics, the latter being something I have dealt with over and over again and only seems to be getting worse.

[@tj.schwarz]

Thanks, Andy. That means a lot!

[@clintcrosby6337]

Nice fixed blade. I need more. Thanks Nick

[@nelsoncam123]

my dad introduced me to mad magazine as a kid I loved the reference

[@Tony42Rivers]

Wonderful, wonderful lil fixie

[@mattchat2875]

Overland, still have. Overland Sport, gave to my son since do not like small knives where they can be ouch. Literally that wonderfully sharp and metal

[@nmarkus666]

People started throwing out “Sport” to denote “smaller” or “less significant” a lot of car makers call their base model the Sport now. Just my .02 on that. The overland full size is just the overland. I did buy one!

[@HappyOrwell]

omg. Everytime I think I'm satisfied with my collection.. haha this is a beautiful little knife

[@blackhogarth4049]

I have one of these and I love it. I found out my preferred way to carry it is with IWB loops. I can't seem to find a good position in my pocket.

[@RaulRodriguez-rv3qy]

T6 bit man himself!

[@destro6971]

Ultimate clips are great for keeping a sheath in place, but they are a Danger to car door paint. ☠️☠️☠️

[@brettbullman6387]

door frames, countertop corners, steering wheels, kids faces, etc... :)

[@InGratitudeIam]

Enough on the sheath already! There are options that don't require pocket carry, Nick.

[@VeniVidiVid]

“Just plain Yogurt“

[@Corbs627]

Taco over pancake every day and twice on Tuesday.

[@wyattbreymeyer4033]

hey i have one of those! the grind is absolutley superb!!!

[@buckaroobanzai2551]

George Castanza reviews knives. Got it.

[@CNYKnifeNut]

Im getting serious deja vu here

[@alanfisher6704]

Just got mine in yesterday, I love it!

[@Sharpaholic-1]

I finally pulled the trigger on one of these. This video was making me drool. He just needs to add a couple more colors of micarta.

[@greggordon6215]

I just did the same and also wanted a different micarta but I'll take the green. Looking forward to holding this little beaut.

[@Tkfl567]

It’s a perfect neck knife.

[@Greenmachine305]

Awesome little knife.

[@_BLANK_BLANK]

Something about ulticlips. Is you can use them on your belt if you want I'll ad. Personally i think leather makes more sense for a pocket sheath. Idk if kydex makes as much sense.

[@TXFarmRoad]

AKA ... And more appropriately known as The MILLIT Aireus 👍🏻

[@wisruteb]

This is a great EDC fixed blade. I carry mine in a leather sheath that rides much lower in the pocket.

[@matthewweaver1123]

Are we allowed to call you T6 now? 😄 Ps. I could absolutely see this being my first fixed blade. Awesome review.

[@beardguy788]

I've wanted one of these for months. Unfortunately the "great economy" is squeezing me hard right now.

[@Youtube-Censorship-Police]

can't stand squeaky metal complex , so i'm always happy when nick releases a new video, no matter what.

[@Sleepy_spartan717]

TJ in fact WAS the designer of the Arius. He had a really nice little home machine shop that he makes these out of. The overland and sport model both have been on my list for a while. I like the look of the sport more but the size of the bigger one is ideal for me. I’m just going to have to buy both lol.

[@davidmarshall7752]

I still think TJ Schwartz is a men's clothing store chain.

[@petedavidson712]

That would look great in my yoga pants! Can you get it with half serrations?

[@void1984]

That's not necessarily a pocket sheath. You can tie it to your belt vertically.

[@Kilt_Camera_and_Carry]

I like pocket fixed blades ... Might want to add that to my knife box

[@grovesy333]

Good thing about fixed blades is no moving parts

[@jpf5920]

Random Q: Have you ever used a knife made of obsidian?

[@Luc1dRock]

Just bought this knife today.

[@DonFarmer-sh7ml]

still the best. thanks for the review

[@Bu11etnB1ade]

We going to see the confidant soon?!

[@scootertribeg1708]

Love to see fixed blades!

[@TTT-du6oj]

A good knife review from”The Nick” is a nice addition to a rainy Saturday afternoon here in the Volunteer State👍

[@townes_]

Another homerun

[@markcanfield435]

Yoga Pants

[@tgonzalez1983]

Good review Nick. Man, I’d love a mid sized edc version. Bigger than the sport but not as big as the OG with the sport style scales. Taco kydex sheath to save on real estate. I like it a lot but one is too big & the other too small. Large hands cutting with small knives is challenging & uncomfortable. Plus I never pocket carry fixed blades. Scout carry on my waist with soft loops is the best way for me

[@jackmarkham1516]

I use flat Kydex sheaths without a clip of any kind. I put the knife and sheath in my pocket. When I want to use the knife, I take the knife and sheath out of my pocket, remove the knife from the sheath, and put the sheath back in my pocket.

[@todaysgrailtomorrowsbeater]

Niiiiick!!!!!

[@NickShabazz]

Niiiiiico!

[@charlesard8639]

Nick, you are the man, brother.

[@FinickyVoid]

The Good King Shabazz posts a video? I watch. I like. I comment. I confirm the subscription bell is set to "all". Good day to you, sir!

[@jeremiahmoody6271]

For me, the sheath works best as IWB rather than in the pocket.

[@jackroy9094]

The man. The myth… The Legend

[@edrader]

the edc fixed blade, another fad like timascus, fat carbon and jade handles

[@cloudcleaver23]

Even in a modern market context, people have been carrying little EDC fixed blades for a LONG time. If you search a forum or something for the ESEE Izula you'll see people packing them back decades. It's just always been a minority preference compared to folders.

[@kurbaniak]

Decade of only fixed EDC. Mostly because of the size of these and the fact that flippers might sound cool but I’d rather get to business.
