I dig this knife so much. The look, the size, the overall aesthetic. If I didn't already have three times more pocket knife than I needed... be honest, I'd still struggle with the price point. I'm not begrudging you the price, mind. I'm sure there's a good reason for it. I'd really love to have one, but it would be tough to justify.

How do you sharpen a tanto. Do you first sharpen the primary edge then the tip? What kind of sharpener would be best?

@TheWeaversofEternity 9 ай бұрын

Yes, you would sharpen each of those edges in separate motions as to not round the tip where the angle change is. I think the Worksharp Precision Adjust sharpener is the best budget guided sharpening system out there. But if you want to go old school you can get a couple of sharpening stones and freehand it. A lot of practice is needed for freehand though, so I'd suggest the worksharp

Cant find it on their website and the price wasn’t mentioned in the vid, unless i missed it, but i get the impression its going to be over priced for what it is, hopefully I’m wrong

@TacBlades 9 ай бұрын

It's quite a nice design but I am not keen on that tanto tho lots of great options at that high price so a difficult buy.

@joshcarter-com 8 ай бұрын

Really interesting knife and an excellent review. I love the minimalist aesthetic but I don’t care for the all-flat blade grind. Many tantos use hollow grind on the main edge for better cutting but flat grind on the tip for strength; it’s a “best of both worlds” approach. All-flat puts a lot of blade width behind the apex, which is less than ideal for slicing. (You mention this around 6:30.)

Kickass vidja, and killer knife! I always appreciate a good quality knife. I have a couple of Spyderco blades, (Manix 2, Tenacious), and I love them both. Although, the Tenacious has been nicknamed blood-letter because for the first month of owning it I cut myself with it a few times, lol. The two knives I think I want the most are a CRKT Provoke, and and Emmerson karambit, but with me needing wood tools I can't justify buying them...yet. I've been deep into knives since I got my first Barlow slip-joint folder, and haven't looked back. Cheers, and thank you for the great review.

@agoosteel 9 ай бұрын

Blade isn’t for sale yet so you didn’t miss it. What would you consider overpriced tho?

@TheWeaversofEternity 9 ай бұрын

Thank you! My very first knife that got me into the hobby was the Tenacious! I still have it and it's in my car emergency kit. I'm quite sure I cut myself with it too! lol I've considered the CRKT provoke as well. It's so cool, but as you said, it being a karambit it's practicality is limited. It would be fun to play with though of course. Thank you for watching and commenting!

I’m not into small knives at all, yes I do have a couple that were gifted to me but I’m going to stick with Takumitak full tang D2 blades for just $70 no matter which one out of the D2 series they are all exactly the same price and truly you can trust even your life with them. No I’m not advertising for them in anyway it’s just knives I truly trust at a heck of a great price, they are even CNC machine cut for true accuracy every time. Have a great weekend everyone, Namaste.

@TheWeaversofEternity 9 ай бұрын

That's great! And there's nothing wrong with budget friendly knives either. Everybody should just get what works for themselves, what they like, and what they are willing to pay. Thanks for the comment and watching!

I have so many knives, and I am not even a collector. I just like different knives for different purposes. Will I purchase another? Yeah probably, but it is not a priority for me. I will probably get another knife sometime this year though.

It's funny. I have many, many knives in my collection ranging from a $160 full DLC Protech Runt 5 to a $2100 RJ Martin Denim Overkill, but have never once owned any Chris Reeves models. I do like the Inkosi with the insingo blade, but i'm not a fan of hollow ground blades so never wanted to try anything from CRK. Guess maybe one day I'll try out a CRK since I'm liking my new CKF Rotten Evo 4.0 even though it's a hollow ground blade. This knife is certainly not to my liking and I'm guessing he's using a Chinese OEM which is a definite pass for me. I won't buy any knives made in China regardless if the OEM is Civivi, We, Bestech, Rike, or even Reatte. Tbh, Herman is probably my favorite knife maker, but they cost a pretty penny.
