Turner CNC Ed Calderon Elvia-C -- Pikal Knife Up Close

[@JeepsandTools]

Most people don’t know how crazy the bevels are on those blades. They have a deep hollow grind at the heel that then blends into a flat grind to reinforce the tip.

[@wingardwearables]

Do you think you could get Jeff Turner on your podcast? They’ve been making very fine looking blades for these past few years-distinctive designs.

[@OGBladeReviews]

Perfect! Been wanting an Elvia from Turner for a few weeks now, since locating then. Great point down blade! 👍🗡️👊. Thanks Bob!

[@harvestblades]

The Elvia is sweet! I carry a fix blade on belt most often my CRKT Obake, but often a Dexter Russel pairing knife (I like it better than the Victorinox). I made the kydex myself & added the pinky groove & since I had the kydex my cost was like $12! That is hard to beat for that price, & whike it isn't as tough should I stab into bone the Pairing knife with most likely get me through that eventt & then end up in evidence. I work private security & executive protection so having such a small, light, but effective knife near my midline is a great tool for breaking a grapple, & creating space to safely deploy my handgun. Hard to justify the additional cost & weight, but maybe if I get my hands on one I'll change my mind.

[@ungabunga6735]

Been wanting one of these for a minute now. Waiting for the next drop hopefully I can get a serrated one. Until then I’m carrying a Fred Perrin le fruit knife lol.

[@harvestblades]

What do you think of Fred's fruit knife & have you gotten an Elvia yet as comparison would be nice as well.

[@patina_turner6791]

These are so bad ass, deffenitly something on the wish list

[@21deadshot]

What is the Company that you got that Wave Feature add on, in the Emerson Elivia? I’ve been trying to find one and do t want to buy another 300 dollar knife when I can buy the Feature as an add on. Thanks

[@TheSogGrunt]

Woah!!! I absolutely love this one!!!! Excellent!!!! Thank you for showing!!!

[@gregoryrogalsky6937]

Nice little blade.

[@3ncrypt3dcod3s]

I hate to say it, but Turner CNC's weakness has always been in their sheaths. I really like their knives and own an Elvia C myself, but my sheath also had that rattle when I first got it. The draw was also overly tight until I re-heated the kydex to make it a bit easier. Also another problem is that you can't get a full purchase on such a small knife due to the sheath riding up so much on the bottom side. This is okay if you're using an ice pick grip because that back notch on the handle helps you grab with your thumb and forefinger, but in a traditional grip you're stuck drawing the knife with your pinky, ring, and middle finger which really isn't ideal. So you can't really run it as smoothly as a clinch pick (unless you modify your sheath). Just some food for thought! Edit: 10 months after posting this, TurnerCNC made a pocket sheath which changes the design and allows you can get a better purchase on the knife👍

Knifemakers need to take notes from TKell and learn how to do sheaths/carry options. No one does it better!

[@readyme]

Do you have a video on your customized fruit knife? Looks like a good starter knife.

[@apolitis1]

the first one is wicked. Most ppl don't realize you don't need a huge blade to cause serious damage

[@ungabunga6735]

They put a video on Instagram using the elvia to stab into what looked like a tenderloin and they pulled the knife down and the wound just opened pretty much butterflied the tenderloin. It was pretty amazing how much of it they were able to open up

[@k9teamzagrebskolazapse149]

Im from EU, so i bot similar but litle diferent knife from Bastinelli Anomaly it has a good grip, and i think that is good for its purpose. Also has good sheat who is multi cary on the belt and disigned is to not slip not taken from your hends ,and when its slipery that isnt problem cos it has gyipming and hole for finger. Also, it is not a big knife. But serves purpose like biger and with litle training you can bee real good real fast.

[@indiopeltier9758]

This one is a nice lil piece

[@johnlivington7480]

Very nice sheath

[@jaydejesus759]

Stupid question. But, would it be legal to carry in CA?

[@masonball5]

Should be. I’m in Ca and all fixed blades are legal, so long as they are not concealed (unless you have a CCW, which is possible in at least 2 counties).

[@9thchamber499]

Pretty sure your not even allowed to pass gas in public over there in Comfornia

[@MrKitty-zv3dl]

Nice little knife but I'm too old to learn how to use it effectively other than an ice pick motion or stick and tear.

[@ungabunga6735]

Something is better than nothing 🤷‍♂️

[@homeboygetyourheadright3713]

Where can I buy this

[@ungabunga6735]

Turner cnc but they make them in batches and they sell out almost immediately. I’m saving for the next drop. Good luck hope you get one

[@giuliano_Ron]

Pikal style the best in real Life

[@konstantinekarvounis5250]

Thats wicked looking very scary.

[@groundfog]

Wicked!

[@konstantinekarvounis5250]

Scary looking

[@kennymckown8603]

I like these little knives for defense but they would be perfect for me if both edges were sharp ! Then I could pull the trigger ! That would then be a serious cutter !

[@sethprice241]

Wordup.

[@temistoclessocratico3310]

That's not for defense. Is for offense

[@Hudson4426]

$285!?!

[@chummymcgee2823]

How much does this thing cost? $500 usd? Turner CNC overcharges for everything

[@DABA2024]

Not even close, and worth every penny.

[@ungabunga6735]

Yeah way overpriced I think it’s like 350 you could just get a Taurus 9mm for less with ammo and call it a day!

[@all_out_of_bubble_gum]

Useless as Long Not Double edged. Just a Marketing gimmick

[@gasparortega8838]

Sweet blade
