The Truffles Knife by Aurora Knife & Tool is a Game-Changer

The Truffles Knife by Aurora Knife & Tool is a Game-Changer. We once again have another edc knife design from another knife community member. This time we have one with brand new innovation and I think your going to like it. I was surprised how much I liked the knife and I think you will like it too. In this video we take a close look at the knife and talk about the good and the bad so you can try to determine if you want to get one yourself.

That is a sick knife. The button lock pivot is a game changer.

[@aurora_knife_and_tool]

Thanks! We think so too! 🤘🏻🤓

The Kickstarter starts August 2nd. $179 during the first 24hrs, then $189 after that.

That’s badass, I love compound ground Tantos. I’d honestly like to have S35VN over most M390. They treat it so soft most times that it’s not getting any extra benefit.

[@aurora_knife_and_tool]

Thanks man! Yeah the factory says the HRC on their S35VN is 60ish, so that works for me! 🤘🏻🤓

[@rblnk123]

I will buy this one. Thanks for sharing

This looks 🔥🔥🔥

[@Cletus_the_Elder]

It's a good looking knife. Blade reminds me of the Mini Evo tanto a bit. I get a bit of a TwoSun vibe in the fabrication.

[@DullPoints]

Man, I love your through you are with the design thoughts. Real excited for this designer and new OEM.

Great looking knife. Would love to see that Ti textured in diamond or stripes. New locking mechanism is super cool as well. Thanks for the look!

[@aurora_knife_and_tool]

Hey thanks! I’ve got several variations in mind for the future, but the first gen will be in the configuration. So if enough folks jump on this one, I’ll be able to offer more variety in the future! Thanks for the input!🤘🏻🤓

[@TheWhiskyExplorer]

@@aurora_knife_and_tool best design I’ve seen this year. Keep up the great work!

[@JasonLeeDeeCee]

I love the blade shape. the knife profile overall is great. I could do without the flipper tab, really. If the lock works then it’s a step in the right direction for knife innovation. Looking forwards to seeing more of it!

[@aurora_knife_and_tool]

Hey thanks! I imagine there will be some folks who do flipper deletes on Truffles. I typically don’t go for flipper tabs, but for me the flipper adds to Truffles’ stance when open. No accounting for taste I suppose! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@sonnyrobinson3701]

Wonder about disassembly whether the push lock mechanism would present any problems of reassembly or not. Overall like the design, blade steel, and fit finish. Neeves knives has video showing how it looks and operates, that looks like may be in depth if you take pivot out and button off.

[@aurora_knife_and_tool]

Yeah, there’s a lot of extra parts so I was a bit nervous when I first took it apart, but it’s really not too bad. I did a takedown video on my channel as well in case folks missed Neeves’ takedown. 🤘🏻🤓

[@DZNTZ]

It’s nice! I like the grind(s), like the blade shape, and the overall design. I would DEFINITELY have liked to see no clip hole on the show side - that bugs me, but it is a nitpick I guess.

[@craigholman9804]

Seems like the Gerber Paul knife is the likely predecessor to the new designs of this type 🎉 imho.

[@aurora_knife_and_tool]

Maybe so - The internals are quite different from the Gerber Paul, but since I didn’t create the lock itself I’m not sure what the inspiration was. I’ve also heard comparisons to the Deadlock, but as far as I can tell the similarities are mostly that the mechanism is in the pivot. B’Yond EDC is also dropping a button lock with the mechanism in the pivot, so it seems like something several folks have been working on. Thanks for the comment! 🤘🏻🤓

[@TimothyHuntC]

Looks similar to the one I have.

[@timb4425]

Still have not been able to find the Kickstarter on this knife. Any updates

[@endlessnameless6480]

[@aurora_knife_and_tool]

Thanks! I’m really stoked to be among the first to bring the Roundhouse Lock to tha peoples! 🤘🏻👏🏻

[@Joshua-lx4ck]

I have been waiting to see a lock mechanism in the pin pivot. Man the last couple/few years we have seen much innovation in the pocket knife world.

[@Joshua-lx4ck]

Stassa23 I would love to see the teardown of this particular knif.

[@chriswebb3018]

Cool knife , and like the new locking mechanisms. Considering it's a Kickstart and people gotta put up there money for this knife to be made the price shouldn't be above 175, and 200 for direct sale. To me that's a fair ask for a knife nobody but reviewers have handled.

"bad work accident" [sees hands] DID YOU WORK IN HELL'S FACTORY?!?!

[@kylekarcher]

Seems like you could accidentally disengage this lock with that big of a button

[@aurora_knife_and_tool]

Yeah the button position and its size has been a potential issue for many folks. I made a short on my channel showing how difficult I find it to accidentally press the button when using various grips, but I’m looking forward to getting it into other folks hands to get their takes as well. Thanks for sharing your concern! 🤘🏻🤓

[@kylekarcher]

@@aurora_knife_and_tool It's awesome to see you taking into account some of our concerns. Appreciate a designer that interacts with his potential customers. Thank you

[@aurora_knife_and_tool]

⁠@@kylekarcherMost def. Knife folks are my favorite folks! 🤣 I will also say that most designs are use-case specific, and this one is definitely designed to be a light EDC user and a fidget freak’s (like myself) dream. So this is definitely not the knife I’d go to for hard use, not necessarily because of the lock but because of the blade geometry. Basically anything I wouldn’t do with a liner lock I wouldn’t do with this knife. Just my thoughts on it! 🤘🏻🤓

[@apaulosmith5653]

Looks like a knockoff Paul knife

[@aurora_knife_and_tool]

Yeah I’ve heard some comparisons to the Gerber Paul and Deadlock mechanisms. Definitely some similarities on the outside, but the internals of each mechanism are pretty different. For instance, to me the Deadbolt is a stronger locking mechanism since the Roundhouse Lock is essentially a liner lock with a button release. I’m not as aware of the Gerber Paul lock, but it is really cool to me that so many folks found unique ways of solving the same problems. B’Yond EDC also released a pivot button lock this year as well. What a great time to be a knife nerd! 🤘🏻🤓

[@apaulosmith5653]

@@aurora_knife_and_tool the Paul is worth a look, the button is attached to the blade so the handle pivots

[@aurora_knife_and_tool]

@@apaulosmith5653Yeah it looks cool and I’ve heard nothing but good stuff about the Paul knife. I think what’s cool about this one though is it’s essentially open source because I don’t have exclusive access to it. My assumption is that the Paul knife design is exclusive to him (which is totally fine - if I had designed the Roundhouse Lock I’d probably keep it to myself too) but that does limit the number of people who can use it. So it’ll be cool to see how other companies use this lock in the future. 🤘🏻🤓

[@WAR-4-YHWH]

Jus being honest. That eye sore is a no go for me..... Looks like something's broke off... Fix that... What were you thinking?

[@aurora_knife_and_tool]

Hey thanks for the comment - if you’re referring to the open clip hole on the front as the eye sore then rest assured the production model will have a clip filler. If the whole knife is the eye sore, that’s a valid take and there’s not much I can do about that! 🤘🏻😜 Thanks for taking the time to share! 🤘🏻🤓

[@WAR-4-YHWH]

@@aurora_knife_and_tool thanks for replying... No I think the knife is a sleek build. I've made a few myself. I was referring to the open clip, and a filler would be great! Thanks again, I'm always brutally honest to help folks. I want to see good folks succeed!
