Lionsteel Skinny: Two Months of use

[@just9911]

It’s a crying shame that this channel doesn’t have 100k subs. Definitely one of the best knife channels ever.

[@Edcreviewer]

Couldn't agree more, I've watched Pete many many years now and never understood how a channel like metal complex is at near 700k yet Pete's is so much smaller and talk about a real travesty is Outpost 76, one of the absolute best of the best knife channels at is at like 6k. Metal complex contributes nothing to the knife world, no useable data what so ever just the typical know it all type stuff that knows it alls say when they really don't have a clue of what they are talking about. Yet he's blown up (all the giveaways help with that I'm sure) Beez and tristate are two more that contribute nothing more to the knife hobby then click my links yet they are quickly gaining on Pete in follows and in a much shorter period of time.... Pete, Alex/outdoors 55, G at Outpost76 are the 3 knife channels that deserve to be the biggest, they haven't sold out and pushing links to try and make a living shilling knife and the data they present to us is valuable as a lot of these knives we plan on buying and knowing how they perform is important. Pete really deserves that 100k plaque and honestly really deserves a million... But sadly that million is gonna be metal complex with his huge ego and look at all my expensive knives I get for free delivery and providing literally nothing of use to his viewers with what he says.

[@Edcreviewer]

Another chronically under subbed channel is "the home slice" the guy that does all the dual grit edge testing... Very nice human that is fun to talk to and does as scientific as possible testing while not in a lab. He is only at like 7k and the man deserves 20x that.

[@TheBeater2382]

I agree. Every other you tube knife reviewers are the same boring reviews

[@archivist17]

Pete turning from strict librarian into bombshell by removing his glasses, and shaking his hair loose....

[@kvernesdotten]

I just saw this knife on youtube! It just posted a video called "two months with a skinny and dirty Australian"

[@andrewdarowski1975]

Thick knives seem to be part of Lionsteel's thing. They made the Ago, a super skinny fixed blade, and its 4mm thick. That's more wedge than blade at that size. I dont know why they do it.

[@Edcreviewer]

Yeah the are definitely not stranger to vastly over thick for the knives purpose type stock thickness and grind. It's just part of lionsteels M.O. why they do it I'll never understand.

[@jesseadams45]

Crocks fully engaged in sport mode is the sign of a knife reviewer with conviction who doesn't half ass anything😁

[@WillEDC]

7:23 exactly what it reminded me of. actually ZT were horribly unsharp from the factory and end up with big edges like this. those were the days when you needed a kme or similar to reprofile the factory edge. I sold them all off. great action poor knives

[@Edcreviewer]

New Cedric video drop hell yeah!

[@TheBeater2382]

A Narrow profile knife is for me too

[@JustSnowglow]

You say "Diarrhea baby poo", I say "Earth tones" 😌

[@JohnDoe-zb7dz]

Interesting blade. Reminds me of one of the Swiss Tech models I've seen but more premium. Side tip. One of the main benefits of raised beds is not to walk in them and compress the soil. Mine are only 3 feet wide so I can work from the sides. Think aeration mate. 🤗

[@OGMoose-rm7vz]

Oh Pete! 😢 i love you too! ❤

[@bboyshr6]

Awesome mate! I put a 14 degree edge on my Lionsteels, I think it helps with sliceness . BTW they do have the aluminum scales in black also in DLT trading

[@thoughtstream9591]

I lost my Stretch 2 in K390. And they are out of stock waiting for Spyderco to make more. I am sad about that and this video needs a comment, so there you go. Also please keep up the great videos!!!

[@CedricAda]

Oooh hope they keep making them in k390. Although im sure the next cool steel they use for the seki knives will be cool, whatever it is

[@loosieclocker]

More dog appearances in the videos 🙏

[@adx442]

Flipper, bearings, not for me, but I'm really glad to hear Lionsteel is hardening Magnacut better!

[@mcsquirgle]

I came close to buying one of these but did not in the end. It probably would have sealed the deal if it was hollow ground. Im rooting for Lionsteel and the rest of the Italian conglomerate of knife makers though. We will get a winner sooner or later.

[@pscheck8983]

toolcat is back!

[@Edcreviewer]

I had a 3800 dollar lithium battery bank back up cook it's self off about 3 weeks about. Was only a tick over a year old and had a catastrophic failure.. not gonna lie it made me sick and right after the warranty ended. Thankfully I paid the extra 300 for the 4 year warranty and another one is on the way right now.

[@krissteel4074]

I guess they keep it thicker for durability, taking into account there will be people out there prying off old paint can lids and beating it into lumps of hardwood or something. So the less recalls to the factory means a general material cost/problem of breaking is diminished. which would eat into their profits. Sometimes you just got to make things for the lowest denominator of customers!

[@paullmight42]

He said fuck...

[@kathleensmith370]

ovewrall a good knife

[@tombrown4683]

Pete I would have never made the mistake you did. Red & black is a favorite knife color combo for me. Wish I had been aware of the St. Nicks Spydercos earlier. Still snagged 2 from them. BTW great review. Got zero Lion Steel knives so far but who knows what the future holds ? Would like to hear about the solar battery situation, when you are ready.

[@Edcreviewer]

The red and dlc Spyderco exclusives from st nicks are my fav exclusives as I love 4v and doc and red looks amazing! To date I have every Spyderco exclusive they have dropped!

[@Disruptrt90]

@@Edcreviewer I also love the red and black. sadly I didn't see any of the st nicks exclusives until its too late.

[@AlexLullos]

neat

[@Theknifeknut]

Have you sussed out the qsp vault yet?

[@sebastiankruse1009]

regarding your repeated choice of babypoop and diarrhea coloured blades and handles, if you haven't already that might be your subconcious trying to tell you to have children :P jokes aside, watching your video it occured to me how handy it is to have a knife at hand around the house at all times for all these tasks and how that convenience is entirely anulled by having to set up a camera to film how practical your knife is and how your're saving time not getting a rusty, dull garden implement to tear open packaging. have a nice australia!

[@tacticalcenter8658]

Lionsteel gets no respect from me after selling poor performing m390 for a very long time without fixing the heat treat.

[@Edcreviewer]

Facts, they know it now and have know it for years. The m390 they put out is to soft and performance is no where near what it should be. Totally unacceptable yet people continue to buy/support them.

[@davidf3974]

Nobody seems to do good 20cv/ m390 to the point where I avoid it all together

[@michaellee6868]

Thanks. I just bought my solar batteries! P.S. Has anyone done a good job of putting both chopping and slicing blades on one device?

[@brandensutton2324]

🤘

[@snakehead5444]

Pete, I’d send ya on my dime a homemade 1084 flat ground lighter duty fixed blade to test if you’d be interested.

[@PalehorseThirteen]

But I like the colorway....

[@John.VanSwearingen]

classic LionSteel slim thick build not classic LionSteel heat treat

[@fancyhitchpin8675]

Don't infer any hidden meaning, but that skinny knife might be skipping leg day.

[@carlstanland5333]

4:48 Those shorts are… ummm…

[@powersww1reset]

You’re an interesting fucker, Pete! Not too many gems, such as yourself out there! Rock tf on mate🤙🏼

[@JohnC29]

Dr. Thomas, not Mr. Thomas. Mr. D. Thomas is his Father.

[@Edcreviewer]

Mr Thomas is perfectly sufficient. Larrin is not the type of guy that wants to be called doctor in the first place. Ask him and he will tell you just as he told me.

[@Hectorszenshopedc]

why so gray my scientist friend 😅

[@DinoNucci]

Need mini version

[@-Agis-]

That's a good looking knife. Does it run on bearings or washers?

[@fancyhitchpin8675]

Washers are bearings. I believe this one is on ball bearings.

[@Pablo668]

Good review and good to see you upload again. Do you wear those shorts on your onlyfans?

[@Aaronsimpson555]

Well first I suppose

[@-Agis-]

Well, any thoughts on the knife then? ..or did you just feel the urge to comment without anything to say?

[@Aaronsimpson555]

@ it’s just a fun thing people do when they happen to be online as soon as the video is uploaded Calm down mate

[@ejan8088]

I have some expensive knives like ZT, two Hawk M.U.D.D. knives (no longer in production) etc. But I completely stopped buying them because apart from the Hawks which are pretty original, the rest cannot justify their prices. For me a knife like Ruike in Sandvik steel is actually all I need. Excellent finish, easy to sharpen, tough and pretty well ground, i.e. really slim. This is what I carry most of the time. By the way, these two Hawks are for sale if anyone is interested.

[@Jake-bt3fc]

I wish all knives were skinny. The only part that cuts is the edge.

[@EricBrownWins]

no chrono trigger music. no like button.

[@LeathermanSurge-q6l]

Please forget about the knifes we need more multi tool videos / Swiss army knife /leatherman

[@Edcreviewer]

Couldn't disagree more.
