The best EDC self defense blades made.

[@therealdomesticatedsavage724]

This dude makes an insane knife and the fact that he seems like the kind of person you’d like to grab a beer with is even better! If you’re waiting for a blade and it’s running a bit behind, trust me...it will be worth the wait!!

[@TkellKnives]

Thanks for vouching for me Sir

[@CA_0341]

I was honored to have watched and listened to this whole video. I let it play while working at the house; after getting off my 14 hour shift. I don’t say that to sound like “hardworking” man, I say it because your spirit and heart flowed through the video. Your faith and beliefs were as evident as your passion for knife making. Thank you sharing this, and I’m glad I found you when I did. I’m always late somewhere, but it’s never my timing, it’s always His. Semper Fi Brother!

[@TkellKnives]

Thank you Brother. It’s been a journey, the support means a lot. I’m incredibly honored. We work very hard to not loose ourselves in this crazy world. Things have gotten so weird lately and staying the course takes daily prayer. Semper Fidelis Brother.

[@seagray5727]

This is the best knife marketing video ever made. Period. Much love to y'all!

[@TkellKnives]

Thank you 🙏

[@sharingallgoodfruit8513]

I've watched MULTIPLE of your videos and THIS video IMO is one of the Best because you BOTH expose a portion of your hearts/motive, the history behind your company, design aspects, and quality/integrity (no BS/no questions lifetime warranty. We done guys!🇺🇲👍

[@TkellKnives]

First of all, thank you for watching. I appreciate that especially considering the quality of some of the older videos lol. My wife actually told me a couple weeks ago this was her favorite as well. You are right -here we just lay it out from the heart. Thank you again, sir.

[@MrEd-dc6mh]

Hey! Love this video. It solidified why I signed up for your Patreon supporting TKELL. You're a True American Story! How hard work and American values...awesome knives! Thank you!

[@TkellKnives]

Thank you brother, that means a lot. I just responded you your Patreon message 4 mins ago. You have impeccable timing

[@chaderosiers]

I watched the entire video! I love my TKell knives. I have a ton of knives but yours are truly my favorite. A buddy at work showed me his TKell knife last Thursday. He was blown away at how awesome & heavy duty it is. We both talked about that insane sharp V grind on it. I’ll keep bragging and showing off my sweet knives & you keep making an awesome product. You’re an awesome Marine Tim. Semper Fi brother

[@TkellKnives]

Thank you Chad. That means a lot. Semper Fi Brother

[@mattadler4710]

i made it through the whole thing, and I know you are doing it right. People get backed up, and overwhelmed sometimes, and the people who know what they are waiting for will understand. I know, with time, things will go smoother. I wish you the best man. Honesty and quality is what this industry is built on, and you know what you stand for. Never doubt yourself.

[@TkellKnives]

Thank you very much for your support. I'm trying to setup to be able to handle the higher volume

[@stephenjajo1027]

I have used the heck out of my Tkell Knives and they are still sharp as all get out! I carry one daily along with my EDC. I may have to get the Custom Shop Marine logo on a knife in the future they really look great.. Have patience folks Tim will deliver as promised and the wait for the knife is worth it. I own three Kell knives and my son has one and they are outstanding. Glad you are doing so well Tim, "Semper Fi!" Steve

[@TkellKnives]

I see the 423! Welcome aboard. Thank you for your future business, for buying American, and for buying local.

[@sunbunbradley]

I went on your website and checked out your knives. In my opinion these have to be the best deal for a quality knife. I am glad I found this I am going to buy one of your blades for sure. I am a UNITED STATES MARINE and a multiple war veteran, and I train MMA. After cardio and our training for that day we finish up and break out the rubber knives and knife fight I really learned a lot. It is so exciting I have to say I am not to bad at handling a blade , and I know the one you make will be perfect for my needs. Great job really bad ass Semper Fi Bro ! You will hear from me as soon as you make some!!!

[@TkellKnives]

Semper Fi Devil. Thank you for the feedback. I try to do things a little diffent. You know like think about how a blade is to be used. Reach out thru the website contact form, and I'll send you the veteran discount code. Which blade are you waiting on?

[@Dennis-dk4ir]

TKell knives are awesome! Great videos and super quality and USA made veteran owned!

[@firebush]

i’ve been looking for a more self defense focused fixed blade recently to carry and thankfully i stumbled across your blades on a youtube review. there’s a lot of options out there but yours are absolutely among the top ones in the running. sweet video, thanks for the real takes!

[@TkellKnives]

Thanks Mason. I’m glad you found us.

[@rjzlwop3153]

Sir the longer the video the more excited I am about listening to it you just make them and I will watch them with my ears

[@TkellKnives]

Thank you very much Brother

[@adsagp]

Thanks for the video, good to learn about your knives and philosophy about making them I stumbled on your channel today. I appreciate your openness and honesty. I live in a different country and wouldn't be able to get one of your knives here. One day it would be good to have one. Keep up the good work, all the best to you and your family.

[@TkellKnives]

Thank you, Adam. I really appreciate that. I do ship out of country if you are ever interested. All the best as well.

[@silverbulletfury2660]

I hope you continue to grow and do well. You make an excellent and practical made in the USA product.

[@TkellKnives]

Thank you my friend.

[@gaberoo9099]

Gotta get to a blade show just to see your knives in person. They look awesome and that coating is crazy cool.

[@npenick66]

I wouldn't worry about the wait times, it's posted pretty clearly on your website what the timeframes are. I've prepaid for blades that were giving me a 6-9 month window on when it would ship to me. My daily utility knife is a Creely Mako, it has a 6 month wait time unless you want a certain steel like the magnacut that I ordered then it can be much longer. Very good knife that I recommend to any other knife nerd but it isn't a defense blade. That's why I'm waiting and watching for the next Nightguard drop. But then I'm old enough to remember ordering things from the Sears catalog in the summer and getting it when snow was on the ground. We did our Christmas shopping in June so that we'd get it in time.

[@TkellKnives]

Thank you sir.

[@DaveLikesKnives]

My little Pirannah took 3ish weeks to arrive and it hasn’t left my side since. If I’d had to wait for 3 months, it would still be one of my very favorite knives. Supply issues suck and I’ve got customers of my own that don’t understand that. Keep up the good work.

[@TkellKnives]

Thank you Dave. I'm honored that it travels with you daily. Your right about the supply chains. Most everyone is understanding and I get that everyone is excited to get their blades. It's stressful for sure.

[@tommoore4717]

[@TkellKnives]

It’s a great knife. Let me know how you like it.

[@frankieb9444]

You may want to consider putting this video on the Channel Homepage, if I wasn't already a new sub and a new customer, this would have won me over for sure. Your last response to me mentioning how awesome the Raider is with the Sentry grip got me salivating a little, so I got a question for you...I was thinking about jumping onto the pre-order train for one and noticed on the website it states an estimated April 15th "shipping" date. Is that date a "shipping out to customers" date or the date of when orders start getting processed? I only ask because I am out of town in May and it would be very useful to bring with me. Thanks in advance

[@TkellKnives]

That’s a good idea about the homepage! Thank you. That is a little of both, we anticipate starting shipping to customers in the order received by that date. The Raider is very popular and just opened up for preorder last week so right now you would be close to the top. The preorder list have gotten pretty lengthy lately with my growth. I only put out the number of blades I have the steel for on preorder so that I don’t seek more than I have. It’s not all the time but it’s getting more common that batches sell out before they finish and only those on the preorder get one. The piranha for example is close to selling out and it has quite a while before that batch is done.

[@frankieb9444]

@@TkellKnives Appreciate the detailed explanation, I'm focusing on the 2 knifes for my immediate need but will keep this info in mind as I continue to shop throughout the year. With your insight, I'll be an early bird and pre-order within the week..thanks Tim.

Welcome to the family

[@IvIidnight]

There is a massive market for blacked out blades. Not grey, but black blades, scales, liners, hardware...you get it. You have a lot of awesome knives and I, personally would buy just about any of them I could get blacked out and I guarantee I am not the only one. Please consider doing at least one in the future. Especially any EDC fixed blades.

[@TkellKnives]

Great feedback. Black is my absolute favorite color. The last hurdle is the black blade. I'm still looking for a way to get the NiB black.

[@NichGatton]

TKell makes an incredible blade. If this is your first time here, check out the Bushman video on his page. I’ve personally put mine through those same torture tests and it holds up just as well as the one in the video. I’ve beat my TKell knives up and they’re holding up great. If you made it through this video, you know this guy now. He’s the same on the phone and in every video. You won’t be disappointed if you buy a blade from him.

Really don’t get how anybody can live through what we have and not understand there is literally nothing you can do to make supplies ship faster. My wife and I ordered a new truck almost 10 months ago, still waiting . That is insane, but I know the auto manufacturer wants my money as much as I want my truck. People need to use common sense , You guys want to sell knives more than we want to buy them. A little patience and common sense goes a long way. Keep up the good work. Allen
