Nice list. I can roll with you on putting the Hinderer XM-18 at #3. Shiro are top notch knives after all. BUT...no Sebenza on the list?? I mean, that's almost criminal. Most enthusiasts, notice I didn't say collectors...put Hinderer, Chris Reeve, Strider (no particular order) as the holy trinity of knives. I am one of those people. Sure, there are "nicer" knives. But those 3 encompass all there is to love about knives. Just my humble $.02

1980-81 3 dot Buck 110 with the better 440C steel which was the last time they used it. I have some of the blades on this list and all of these "super duper" steel knives sit in a box collecting dust. The thicker, squared off bolster 3 dot 110 is the best version Buck ever made. It's also the masculine version and what the 110 should look like. It's the only blade you'll need. Reason being, easy to sharpen to a razor blade, no moving parts, no internal springs, no screws or a pocket clip that destroys pockets. Just an all metal handle and a very strong lock back with a spring bar. And I'll have to add (just for the hell of it) it has killed Grizzlies before. The best part, I just scored my third one for a little more than $40 in perfect condition. Runner up I would add the Gerber 06 Manual with S30V or the Benchmade Ritter Griptilian M390 with AWT aluminum handles and maybe the Adamas 275. I just don't see the point in purchasing knives that cost as much as guns.

Beyond amazing. I'm used to $250 (each and I use 4 of them) Japanese water stones and an $800 guided sharpening system. If you want the best edge...wet stones . ..but you're gonna spend time and money. The difference between a wet stone edge and this device is maybe 5-10 percent. No one will ever notice. However.. make sure you don't take off too much material from your knife!

I agree with a lot of your choices…the ranking is another thing but I also respect your overall feel about it…you know I owned better half of these knives but recently sold them all, except for Spyderco Kapara, Civivi Elementum and Spyderco Police…I also didnt sell even one Victorinox knife or Opinel knife…ive actually gone through the journey of finding the best knife for me and I came to realize i dont want my folding knife to be thick as hell in stock and TBE…for prying I have fixed blades, for sliciness I have Opinel…opinels are also just so much more customizable than most of the knives you mentioned…you get 0.007” TBE which is just a dream…i spent so much money on high end knives...man i regret it now cause the thrill of owning them was only temporary and soon it became an unhealthy addiction…Rocksteads cant even be used to nicely cut through an apple, I mean what do you actually pay 1500$ in such a knife…design, quality but utility not so much…i sold it all and took my girlfriend for a premium vacation instead…the best choice i ever made

@@evanacey1414 do you actually use your knives? If you did, you would perhaps understand my side of the argument…its not the steel or brand that cuts, its the geometry and TBE…Shiros are like 0.015” behind the edge, Hinderers like 0.028”…now compare it to Opinel, you get 0.007” TBE, its a noticably better slicer than Shirogorov, I know that because i had owned 3 Shiros and actually used them for hard work…

These knives are interesting and show some differences on our own requirements (for example I want my knives one handed ambidextrous). However, I honestly think leaving off the Benchmade 710 off the list is just a miss. It really helped make the modern EDC knife seen as well as being the first Axis lock. Just my thoughts.

In reference to the rockstead and maybe all "overpriced" knives: what people don't realize is that extra cost does not often come from materials but from quality control. I work in quality control as a QA Lab Tech. Higher quality control means more expensive equipment capable of a higher degree of accuracy, more discarded cutting tools as they are exchanged more frequently because as they wear the accuracy is decreased, and more product being rejected for scrap in general. This is where we start discussing if it's worth it and as MC says it's entirely a personal choice

Why then does knives like civivi or ruike have better overall fit and Finnish than the over priced Benchmade?
@metal_complex
@metal_complex 2 жыл бұрын
1. They don't. That's a pretty exaggerated statement. 2. Civivi/Ruike are made in China (dramatically lower labor costs) and generally are utilizing lesser materials, especially when it comes to steel. Benchmades are expensive, but not "overpriced" just because they cost more than Civivi/Ruike knives. Now you have the correct information 👍

I have to throw my hat in the ring for Kizer. I think the Sheepdog and the Gemini are two of the best designs we've seen in a long time, especially on knives that aren't running you hundreds of dollars. The Gemini in particular is fantastic, being a Ray Laconico design, and the Gemini is just a production version of his custom Gemini that he put out. They recently released a version with contoured micarta handle scales, and it's one of the most comfortable, dextrous knives I've ever held.

Yea I’m not a blade hole kinda guy, just can’t get over the look so to me I’d rather have my elementum over any knife with a hole in the blade

@@TJTroubleMaker the elementum is one of the only knives I've bought multiple versions of lol. The S35vn model is flawless in my opinion, don't have a single complaint and it's all under $80.

any Kershaw assisted flipper in 20 cv is easily the best. removes all the issues of loose hinges adjustment washer polishing etc without he button issues of automatic knives. perfect blade shape like the f3 ns 1/8th the cost. solid metal frame and liner. sturdy clip. can't go wrong. but i do like your suggestions.

Seeing some of the knives that you put ahead of the Chris Reeve Umnumzaan, I totally understand it being in the upper teens But to me, that knife is the greatest knife of all time, and I agree it is absolutely the best design CRK has ever come up with. I have a new drop point one in magnacut and my goodness it is incredible 🤩

Recently have been watching some of your reviews. I really enjoyed your Top 50. Amazingly watched the whole thing and it opened my eyes wider to the world of production folders. What, no Boker Mermaid on the list? 😂 Keep up the excellent content-subscribed.

Just goes to show how everyone values knives differently. I tend to like a more minimalist design to my knives. ie Quiet Carry Waypoint, Sebenza 31 Small, Fox TUR or other knives by Jesper etc. But I'm glad to see the Altus on there ;P That's a knife that I think is beautiful in design but also has great functionality to it.

If you can get a first or second Gen American Lawman I highly recommend. They both have steel liners so are thicker and heavier. The first gen has a more useable choil.

Lanyards are important to many people. I don’t carry my knives my pocket. I carry knives in nylon or leather pouches side carry on my belt. Using a clip in my pocket I find really uncomfortable. I’ve carried a knife since I was 8 years old, but carrying something big and flat is not cool. A landward helps me extract my knife easily without looking. Interesting video.

I'd take my ZT 0560BW Elmax over all of these knives, apart from number 1, which I would have bought if I could find one I liked. My first knife was back in the 90's, a Spyderco Provinater, now have various knives for different things. Sitting at about 10 now, not a huge collection, but a fussy buyer😂. Thanks for the list, may check out a few.
