Ben, Austin, Zac, Kurt, and Jamie. Make it so!

Yes this needs to happen.

[@Leftyotism]

@@knafs_co Hell yeah brother! 💪🥰

[@AnthonyAwaken]

This is what the internet has been missing for years! Glad to have you guys back on a show :)

[@SK-wi1cx]

Good to see you two talk about knives again after a long time!

[@WorkSharpOutdoor]

This is a show the knife community has needed, and Ben, Austin and Jamie are the best people to deliver it! Super excited for this!

[@TalkingDonkey2]

Beyond excited to have the two of you back doing videos again!!! What-is-up-guys!

[@timbober1]

Proud of what you’re building.

[@campbellmdfkr]

Yehhhhh¡¡ glad to see Ben and Agustín back... Is been a while¡¡. The team complete is back¡¡¡

[@Santiagotc13]

So glad “Banter” is back on KZbin and with almost all of my favorites hosts at least in the room.

[@benbanters]

Banter. Banter? Banter. You're talking about the knife model, right? ;) Thanks for watching, Santiago.

[@ErnestPworrell88]

I miss zac's channel, but its good to see you making conent Ben! Have been watching you guys since blade hq days.

[@WayofKnifeEdcGearHouse]

Heck yea guys! This is fantastic 🤝

[@willfoulk4338]

So glad to see a Knafs knives info show on KZbin! Please keep this series going 🙏🏼

[@paullambert4445]

So glad to see your new channel. Great to also hear about Zac and Jamie. Knife Center has never been the same since you guys left. 🎸🔪☮️

[@valentinrodriguez2101]

Would love a lander fix blade if y'all made one

[@knafs_co]

Stay tuned.

[@OneMinuteKnifeReview]

wow, feltlike a flash back......what is going on??? lol, happy to see you all back in the saddle on here!

[@thefrenchkaddict]

Thanks guys, what a pleasure to see and hear you talking 😜

[@mrnorcross]

Great video, guys! So much fun! This is why we all love Knafs!

[@PensandPenBlades]

Glad to see you two back and making videos together! Great video and look forward to more in this series!

[@HorsepowerHeaven]

It’s amazing to see you guys back at it! Always appreciate the content and hearing what you have to say. I would love to see you do a video with Zac when he stops by your shop! Since I’ve gotten my sebenza I’ve stored two full size knaff burritos stuffed with other edc knives away and only carried the CRK. Love it but I do need to get me a Lander 3 it’s perfect!

[@Leftyotism]

Not gonna lie, since the big knife law change in Germany (2013) I switched to carry more fixed blades. Since a folder that locks can't be one-hand-opening (or rather a folder can't lock one-handed). And I like to not have to use 2 hands and still have security of it not being a slipjoint. I also carry a slipjoint though and a two-hand-opening folder that locks. So they just made me carry more knives, and they tried to get knives off of the streets. lol

[@mrchiefbs]

Interesting insight! Thank you for sharing

[@awwwshucks443]

Classic prohibition outcomes.

[@robynwilson6884]

I was just researching knife laws in Germany today. Definitely some very specific rules to follow.

[@ADAMGILBRT82]

Whereas on a sidenote in Australia fix blade is more frowned upon than a folding knife.

[@Leftyotism]

[@airtadeo8570]

I MISSED YOU GUYS! HERE YOU ARE! have on some secret heroes of the knife industry: workers, designers, camera people. SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU ALL AFTER LEAVING YOUR LAST JOB ATH THE hq.

[@rob10ring]

The best show in knives! I’ll bet that even non-enthusiasts would enjoy this. I’m super sick(one of those both ends things) and didn’t think I’d make it through a 23 minute video. I totally got to escape that world for a moment. Thank you.

[@benbanters]

It’s an honor. 💪 Good luck out there. 🫡

[@jasonscott6906]

Great video Ben, I love that Austin works with you and now Jamie, that’s awesome. Great products guys.

[@jasonscott6906]

I had just got into the hobby and found blade hq right around the time when it was you Ben and Austin and then you and Zac so it’s good to see you and Austin again on screen, good memories.

[@Grimsgiver]

Awesome show guys. Looking fwd to future episodes keep up the good work. Love my lander 1 and 2

[@knafs_co]

Only have to wait one week!

[@Justinator616]

Watching you and Austin’s bladehq videos during Covid launched my knife life. It was also when I finally landed a big boy job and could afford higher quality knives. Great to see you two at the helm again!

[@miseenplace9339]

Rarely do KZbin videos, much less ones that focus on my favorite hobby, make me chuckle...but "Was it happy though (little accident)", broke through my stoney-faced appearance...thanks for lightening up life for me on a regular basis...oh and btw, and don't tell anyone, but of my 100+ knives, so far, my favorite carry piece is the Baby Banter, think about doing one in Vanax Superclean, LC200n, H2 or something more corrosion resistant than Nitro V (think using on a daily in coastal Virginia with crazy heat and humidity owning a lawncare business)...

[@aldenbarbieri]

OG of knife banter!!!!

[@eriktaylor5704]

Excellent video. Great to see you both behind the knife news desk again.

[@EastCoastMan603]

28 years at spyderco. God bless you lady. Guys this is why we need to support USA companies. Benchmade, Spyderco, etc. these companies are paying good people, good money. Stop sending your dollars overseas for robot/slave made knives. That is all.

[@knifedaddy5791]

Awesome show guys! Thank you! I would like to see Jamie, Zac and Kurt make a guest appearance as well - loved seeing Zac already!

[@tw2034]

Austin! Dude was the best! Glad to see him again.

[@roberthicks686]

I was curious about the space kitties hanging up in the shop. Now I know the story.

[@lwilson95990]

Great video and knives, need more of the old blade hq crew especially kurt and zac !

[@profesorEDC]

Awesome format, good job guys👌

[@rubencortez9198]

Nice! I’m very excited for this channel.

[@lorenfuchek105]

Awesome show looking forward to more. Good to see Jamie behind the camera. Can't wait for more.

[@entertheFinn]

Awesome video! Thank you for the background and news. Looking forward to all those new Lander parts!

🎉🎉 It’s as if I just aged backwards and am starting over with my KZbin knife journey! You’re all incredible and bravo!

It's now 2017, and you're $50K less poor. ;) Welcome!

I would like to see an interview with 2nd Change George. His knife history is interesting, and it's still going.

[@ek16824]

This is awesome, I missed the old Knife Banter videos you guys used to do. Pumped to see you both back at it

[@lonestardude6283]

Great stuff! Great to see Austin back in front of the camera where he belongs!

[@MichaelTaylor-yz1ss]

Melissa's pocket check at Blade Show is the most entertaining knife content that I have seen in the past few days (except for yours of course). Anyway, show her some much earned love and bring her on. Love Zach and Jamie too.

[@benbanters]

I added her to the list! She's a champ.

[@truthseeker6045]

Omg 😱 I am so excited about this !!! What I wanna see ?? ( You asked ) * I want flannel shirts with your logo’s for crying out loud . * I want lots of Ham Hands, Zac, and Jamie guest appearances. * I want, we the people, the silent friends at your knife banter table, to get involved with giveaways! Someone needs to get a PO Box ( No creepers at your house ) where we can send in cool fun stuff to make giveaways. ( Stickers, coins, pocket jewelry, knives, artwork gadgets of all kinds ) Senders could get a shout out … * I want Jamie memes back … his humor is irreplaceable! * I want to see more camping ⛺️/ survival vids … minus Ben hand cuts * I want to see DIY knife mod vids * OMG as I am typing .. watching … YOU do have a place where we can send stuff YESS! * How knives are made * All the ways a knife can deploy … there has to be some unique ones out there . I’m so excited for this show I can’t stand it !!! ❤

Thank you. Appreciate what you guys do.

Thanks for watching!

[@P_Rodd]

Love it! I would say dont feel pressured to all the segments every week. If there is something for a segment that week, freat, if not, save it for a future show. That will keep the episodes tight and with better content.

[@roberthernandez6349]

So much fun. Keep it up!

[@timnichol6566]

Nice to see Ben and Austin talking about knives again!

[@frankiejdwm_edc1037]

I'm actually going out to install a Panasonic bathroom fan today. I do got to say as far as bathroom fans go they're probably top of the line. Alot of CFM, and they are so quiet you don't even know they're on until you put your hand or a piece of TP against the grill. And the fact that you can set to 50/80/100 CFM is also amazing...... Now for some EDC related stuff I will have my full Ti Hinderer Project X in my pocket, and hand today to help with the install

[@benbanters]

Can't beat those WhisperFit models! Except people would leave bad reviews on Amazon because they were too quiet-- tryin' to cover up... noises. Enjoy the install!

[@gitarboi6760]

Love my lander, gave mine to my son when he left for college and got another, pimped it with wood scales.

[@ADAMGILBRT82]

Thanks for posting love the content

Great stuff fellas, I'll see you next Friday hopefully.

looking forward to more of these on whatever schedule you feel like pushing them out on. yonder looks cool, I'll probably pick one up since it's up my alley. same with a lander 3 with trout scales

[@matthewh8589]

Love the premier ep! Can y'all talk about the history of Spyderco's trademarked Round Hole? I feel like Ben & Zach have alluded to it in past videos and I'm just dying to know! Also: could y'all please fly Pete from Cedric & Ada up from Australia to be on the show? At any rate...Thanks for the Premium Knife Content & keep up the great work!

[@drewp_edc]

Love this! Please make a Knafs Lander fixie 🙏🏾

[@duartduplessis1046]

Finaly they reunite💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

I wish Knafs and big idea could collab on a folding pliers. Not a multi-tool, but a great set of folding needle nose pliers that can fit in the pocket.

That's my "fixed blade" lander . Thanks for featuring my knife😅

What iiiiiis up guys? I saw those space cat pictures when I visited the store June 12th! Cool to hear the story behind those. Picked up a blem Lander 1, love it. I'd love to see Advanced Knife Bro, Nic Shabazz, or Finch Knives on here!

Ha! We almost called them to see if we could buy the name "Knife Banter" off them, but decided "Knafs at Nite" feels more like our childhood growing up with Nick at Nite. ;)

[@bdm3052]

The best duo from blade hq

[@thewaterwarrior9817]

Have you thought about maybe making a secondary insignia to go on the knife blade? I feel like the entire doesn’t always aesthetically match the designs. Maybe you could make a cool “K” or something?

[@benbanters]

Excellent question. I've thought about it, but Kershaw has been using a "K" for years, and it doesn't quite seem searchable enough for SEO purposes. It's a hard question that I haven't figured out a clean solution to yet. Thanks for the suggestion!
