This is what 140 knives looks like!! 2 Year Channel Birthday - State Of The Collection

[@domeromer]

Thanks for the update. Looking forward to all those backlogged videos.

[@KnifeNerdery]

Haha I'm not looking forward to spending all the time editing them, but I'm definitely excited to finally have them up on the channel!

[@christianmcbride9905]

Wow! Solid knife collection, really nice choices and mostly top shelf stuff. Very .uch enjoyed watching this, thank you.

[@KnifeNerdery]

I'm hoping that I can cut the size down by at least half, if not 2/3, by the time I do the next one. But I said that last time, and the opposite happened. 😅😅😅

[@2873lonewolf]

What an absolute baller collection! The attachment to each and every knife, from the way you speak about them, is so cool and different. It was fun watching you nerd out a bit, I've always loved your passion. If it was anyone else, i wouldn't have watched 2 hours+ video. Have a great weekend Kevin and keep enjoying our wonderful hobby(addiction).

[@KnifeNerdery]

Hahaha the pro move is using 2x speed on all of my videos. 🤣😅 Really glad you enjoyed it though! I haven't talked that fast in a video in ages -- this could have been a way longer video 😅

[@ericblue9647]

Great vid! It took me a couple days to completely watch but enjoyed it. I like your taste in high end production and really liked watching the gadgety portion! Keep up the great work.

[@KnifeNerdery]

Hahaha I respect the perseverance! My pro tip recommendation is to put all of my videos (well all videos, honestly, but *especially* mine) at 2x speed 😝😅

[@ErsanSeer]

Damn. I may be a hoarder too because I only got into EDC back in February and I recognize most of your knives lol. I've become thoroughly obsessed and have started designing my own knife that's inspired by the Paysan, Nightshade, Evo 3, Whippersnapper, and Lamia. Prob gonna do the whole OEM thing with Reate or Bestech or something. Damn, I really am an addict because I'm looking forward to going through the whole 2 hr video lol. PS... Lemme buy that Monza when you're ready to let it go 😁

[@KnifeNerdery]

Hahahaha that is a very relatable fast spiral into madness. And those are some really solid designs to riff off!

[@Idaho_Knife_Climb]

Hey Kevin! Excited to see the collection!

[@deanmarker991]

Kevin! I love the collection, but I love your "House" poster even more! The first time I watched that film as at around 4am while recovering from the flu and I couldn't sleep. Rest assured I had NO idea what I was getting into but left with one of my absolute favorite fever dream films i've ever seen. I always love to see when others have enjoyed it as well :)

[@KnifeNerdery]

Good eye! I wasn't feverish, but I actually first watched it at 4am going in totally blind, too! I've inflicted it upon/gifted it to many in the years since, but a few months ago I had the amazing experience of getting to see it on the big screen with an audience of enthusiastic die-hards as part of a film studies class on the film!

[@iker42]

Finally getting to watch this after returing from Blade. Fantastic to finally meet you and what a fantastic collection. Keep up the great work and can't wait for the next upload.

[@KnifeNerdery]

I'm still not fully recovered from blade -- I got 11 hours of sleep between 8:30 am Wednesday and 11:30pm Sunday. I'm not a mathematician, but I'm pretty sure that's not enough sleep. But yeah!! That's definitely one of the absolute coolest parts about Blade: so many people that would never otherwise get to cross paths are all finally in the same place! I'm really glad we got to actually meet! I'm going to be doing a Blade recap video, talking about the experiences and showing the small stash I brought back. I haven't filmed it yet (like I said, still feeling like a zombie!), but I'll probably film it this weekend and upload it as soon as I'm done. What'd you end up bringing back with you?

Yoo!!! That’s the wharnie whippersnapper you bought from me on the swap!! Really really miss that thing. Super super snappy and glassy. I was the original owner and bought it from lamnia.

[@KnifeNerdery]

Hahaha that's awesome! And yup! Still in the collection. The Whip is a fantastic knife!

[@KnifeNerdery]

It still blows my mind. He does such amazing work.

Love the "Show the collection" I love TRM (Got the Neutron 2 and Atom) but where are the Spyderco's? I forgive you 😂 keep up the great videos!

[@KnifeNerdery]

🤣 There's a couple hiding in there -- several Smocks, a McBee... Are there others? I've been eyeing some of the weirder, older ones. And I've kinda always wanted a Chaparral in Birdseye Maple. Which Spydies are your favorite?

[@cec732]

Have you tried the Grismo Saga and OZ Little John pens? Would like your take on those.

[@KnifeNerdery]

Haven't had the pleasure of either. The Saga is higher priority to me since it's got a novel mechanism, but the Little John looks like minimalist pen glory. I've been hunting the perfect (for me) Saga config, but I'm not sure they've made it: I want a no-logo tip, but on a no-ano body.

[@cec732]

@@KnifeNerdery Hope you find your config.

[@mikeschroeder7703]

The slots in the Shockbomb 2.0 are for putting tritium in it. AMAZING knife collection. I thought I had a lot of cool knives. I have a lot of old school Benchmades and Reeves, but man, my collection pales in comparison. Excellent video too! Your knowledge and memory of all these knives/makers/etc is staggering.

[@KnifeNerdery]

Oh that makes total sense about the tritium slots! You know, I've never once had any of those little trit vials. They'd definitely be fun in something like that. And I'm glad you enjoyed the video! The collection has unfortunately grown even bigger since filming this, but luckily I've started moving a few along. What are some of your favorite knives in your collection? I've been really enjoying exploring some of the older knives like you mentioned, and they're near impossible to find half the time!

[@Robs_Nerdy_Knives]

1:27:36 I’m not a fan of the Vision R at all because the Snecx button is too uncomfortable. On that note is the Sandrin lock as strong and pokey as the Snecx lock?

[@KnifeNerdery]

The spring tension is a bit lighter, which helps, but the bar itself is a) shallower, b) considerably narrower (because it has to fit in the same space as the narrow blade stock), so those pose their own challenges when disengaging. I find it works best if I curl my finger over and use the tip of my finger (almost but not quite my nail).

[@Robs_Nerdy_Knives]

@@KnifeNerdery That is really helpful and helps me avoid a $400-$500 experiment. I’d love to check one out one day if just in a store but I will avoid buying it. I really appreciate the response! 👍

@@Robs_Nerdy_Knives I'm happy to send you mine to check out!

[@michaelbonade4667]

Love collection vids…and particularly content with out of production pieces…2 of your CRKT models have been on my list for some time…but, limited funds, limitless love for knives….so in time they will be acquired… The Walker and the Elishewitz…CRKT operate in a particular price range but they can and do produce knives of very good quality, along with amazing designers….and they do their best to stay true to the original/custom designs….they were part of my introduction to modern knives and collecting ten years ago

[@michaelbonade4667]

That Russel made Crawford design….right up my alley…knives like that make a collection….we all end up collecting a decent amount of what is in production at that moment, and if you look at a lot of collection vids showing off contemporary collections there is just a sea of titanium folders with blades that have oval holes in them…and 3d machined clips….its run its course….always look back to the years before…because the modern folder isn’t that old

[@KnifeNerdery]

It's always crazy to me when I learn some new factoid that puts the age of the modern folder into clearer perspective, 'cause you're absolutely right -- it's not that old! Like I've heard stories of flipper tab knives from decades earlier, but they weren't mainstream on knives until Kit Carson's M16 model from CRKT in 1999. But that's not even 25 years ago! (Another great example of CRKT being the incredible risk-takers that they are. I admire the hell out of their long history of experimenting with new knife mechanisms, and bringing clever designs from brilliant custom makers to the masses.) A collection of mechanically interesting knives has always been the desire for me. I love modern knives, and I definitely get swept up in the excitement of new releases and whatnot, but I've been getting the most satisfaction out of these deep dives into the history of knives and mechanisms lately. I just acquired a few really strange and wonderful pieces recently! And learned of a few others to hunt for. The hunt for older knives -- or even just to learn about older knives -- is a very different one. Most of this information is just not digitized! These histories exist primarily in books, trade magazines and flyers, old paper knife catalogues, or just the memories of the old-timers who lived through it. Makes it really, really hard to fact-check anything! But the challenge of discovery has always been one of the most fun parts for me, so sometimes it's for the better? Case in point: I just picked up a tiny little knife that I can't find any information on. It is -- basically exactly -- Barry Wood's "Swing Lock" mechanism, which he patented in 1968. But it has a tang stamp ("ETHAN ITALY") akin to, but not identical to, a brand used by Sam Polk in the early-mid 1950s to import Italian stilettos into the US ("ETHAN 1953 ITALY"), and is marked "PATS. PEND." on the inside. Who made this? Who was trying to patent it? And could it actually predate Barry's patent by 15 years? MYSTERIES!

[@BuffaloNickel9]

AMEN When you got to the Tactile Turn Rockwall at 26:40 I couldn't agree more! Nice materials and the Milling is great but I expected so much more from tactile turn having owned their *most excellent pens.* Your detent ball literally fell out on camera. I had one ship to me with a very loose scale, stripped screw, and the worst sharpening job *I've ever seen* on Magna cut, butter-knife dull! The *most troubling* problem with them, thank you for mentioning, is the biggest design flaw being the thumb stud! It's impossible to access it consistently (for me at least)! How has no one discussed this? my finger just slipped right over it a good 60+% of the time. 20% of time it came halfway open and was a liability to slice a finger, the final 20% of the time it deployed marvelously like a damn rocketship... Needless to say mine went back within a day or two. I had the rockwall with dimple design scales. If you can't deploy a knife, and even if I did it won't cut due to a blunt Edge, what good is it? It seems their most recent release was a dud as well- forgot the name of it. *I love their ink pens, so that's the positive-their bolt action and my favorite slide click mini pen!* P.s. I love the hell out of the Spyderco Smock also! That's one I'll keep and carry forever. My detent is perfect like your m390 Smock, love the reverse flick, and the Hollow Grind is insane-mine's a laser.

[@KnifeNerdery]

Ah man, sorry to hear you, too, have had bad QC issues with Tactile. I got to meet them briefly at Blade this last weekend, and they really are genuinely nice, enthusiastic people -- I really want them to succeed! But it feels like they keep getting in their own way a bit by prioritizing growth over making sure they nail the basics. And it really does feel like it's coming back to bite them, 'cause it's hard to bring them up in conversation without *someone* having had a bad QC issue that they immediately bring up. And for good reason! That kinda stuff just shouldn't happen at that price point, and it leaves a strong impression on people. The thing about the thumb studs is just baffling to me. It's a totally manufactured problem that just doesn't need to be like that, and would honestly be incredibly easy to "fix". But they've stuck with it and keep sticking with it, even now on a new tanto model. Again, I really, really want them to succeed. They're very talented machinists, their hearts are in the right place, and they're doing that all right here in the US. I love that. I just want them to take all this customer feedback to heart and worry more about the state of the products they're sending out.

[@justakbeachbum2311]

Wow! I've been looking at Swanepoole myself - any quick thoughts?

[@KnifeNerdery]

Aesthetically I think it's fantastic -- it's the kind of shapes I would want to design if I ever made a knife. And if you're looking for a smaller custom user, it seems pretty solid. But it's definitely a weird combination having a tighter washer action on a front flipper. I actually lightened the lock bar pressure on it -- it was exceptionally stiff (and definitely not flip-able) when I first got it. You can tune a CRK to be flick-able, but if you leave it tight you can at least slow-roll it out. Tight front flipper slow roll is possible, but less easy. It also has a pretty beefy grind, so it's not inheriting that aspect of the CRK. A friend has one of the ones with an opening hole, and he says it flicks open pretty easily, even with the stiffer washer action. I don't think I like the look of it (or most, at least -- he has a couple different hole shapes) as much, but that's probably the one I'd get if I could do it over again.

[@KnifeNerdery]

Unfortunately (all depends on your perspective), they don't do that stepped milled finish anymore on the Skaha. Their newer finish is arguably a "better" finish functionally (less drag, more uniform), which is why they switched to it as their business and resources grew. But the old finish just has this striking look to it that gives it a neat "cool factor", which is sadly lost.

[@Dracomies]

This batch has a 'tiny' bit more clutter compared to the first batch (your other vid). I feel like the first batch had a lot of clean, elegant, beautiful minimalist designs. This one has more of a mix of just 'ones you can't get' but not exactly ones I would consider - probably good performance though.

[@KnifeNerdery]

Great observation! I'm curious which stand out to you as ones that shouldn't be there? I've definitely accumulated quite a few knives that I wanted to check out but shouldn't/don't want to keep.

[@Dracomies]

@@KnifeNerdery It was a pretty long video on both ends but I do remember some time points. So in your first video at (55 minutes) you have this titanium section and it was awesome. Literally everything on there was awesome. But in this video there's some more added where (to me) I wasn't a fan of the looks of the knives. So examples are...and I didn't have time to go over everything but.. the Smoke Mini, the EMP Knife (looks gaudy to me), the Thick Boy (not a practical knife or useful in any way), the Lioh Mah knife (overkill in size and not good looking imo), I kind of stopped right there. But it's just moreso I felt like your first video a large majority were holy cow awesome looking - and i feel this one was more niche. That being said, I should mention that I'm more attracted to understated minimalist designs and not super crazy ones.

[@KnifeNerdery]

@@Dracomies hahaha yeah, I agree on all of the ones you mentioned. Except the Smoke Mini. I adore that knife. But I am not much of a fan of the EMP Nymble; the Thick Boy is delightful from a tactile sensation way, definitely not an elegant knife; and the Field Duty 3.5 was a FOMO pre-order mistake that I didn't realize was going to be as huge and extra as it is!

[@Idaho_Knife_Climb]

1:18:20 I believe that’s called a compliant mechanism!

[@KnifeNerdery]

Hell yeah, that's absolutely correct! For anyone reading this that's unfamiliar, a "compliant mechanism" is an object that uses the flexural properties of the shape and material to achieve motion or transfer force, rather than a conventional joint. It's a really cool and clever concept in mechanical engineering that's been around for a long time, but has definitely taken off in the last decade thanks to 3D printing, since it makes it so easy to create odd shapes out of a "single piece" of material. There's some fantastic videos out there of the wild mechanical contraptions people have built, all without any standard joints.

[@Idaho_Knife_Climb]

@@KnifeNerderyyou’re a fantastic teacher and have a knack for explaining things in a very digestible way. To anyone else whom is reading this: You can find these mechanisms in things like your phone, a lot of them are microscopic and if I remember correctly these mechanisms are integral in your phone understanding it’s orientation, G-Force measuring devices, and I believe in some vehicles this is how your airbags deploy. I might be incorrect in regards to airbag deployment, however there are a lot of these compliant mechanisms used in avionics as well.

Ooof, the international shipping insult to injury. Really sorry to hear that, man! Like I said in the video, I really want Tactile to succeed -- they're nice folks trying to do something really cool -- and they do have serious machining chops!

Nah, I've just got way too many, so a) some sit for months without even being picked up, and b) some I bought specifically to experience and understand their mechanics, and they aren't actually something I'd want to carry. A good example of that is the Attaboy that I got to experience and dissect the Deadbolt Lock; but it's a chunky little knife that I'm not actually interested in carrying. But I have carried the vast majority of my knives, and my highest end pieces are nearly all regular users.
