What's New With The Finch Knife Co. Model 1929

[@davidinghram2494]

I got the last new Crawdad 1929 from Spencer this morning. I am very pleased and lucky to have it. It`s just beautiful!

[@BigRedEDC]

Awesome!

[@KnivesFAST]

Great vid. Love mine a ton. Carry it often. Thanks for sharing

[@BigRedEDC]

Thanks for watching brother!!

[@knaftasticedc956]

Awesome jig..gotta get one of those for sure..thanks for the show JB

[@BigRedEDC]

Good to see you Rodney! Thanks brother!

[@robertfogle654]

Definitely a nice mix of old and newer styles. Beautiful little knives. Thanks for sharing.

[@BigRedEDC]

Thanks so much Robert!

Now I know the true beauty of these traditional meets modern. I really like the jigbone handle with a flipper action, it’s a nice take. I moved as a child so I didn’t spend much time with my grandfathers, moving to a state where I had no family other than my mother and sister. I now have a classic slip joint knife that belonged to my grandfather, well I left it behind at my mother’s and she has a bad habit of losing my belongings but when I had it in hand it was special not for how fancy it was yet for the memories ingrained into the handles. The blade was well kept sharp, great shine and the edges it’s a shame I couldn’t have learned from him while I still had center vision back then. Whoa, I didn’t mean to type what I was remembering but you really brought me back to the few memories mentioning “Pa’s (grandpa’s) knife.” I am liking both traditional and traditional/modern folders with and without pocket clips. I feel that the jigbone is perfect without but damn then I am left having it lose in my pocket sideways or preferably fifth pocket or inside jacket pocket. I am starting to take a fancy to traditional and modern takes of traditional folders. Oh, I remember my grandfather’s slip joint folder was used for fishing or at least that was the impression I got while holding it and the spot stain of blood that only would be left from such a thing as fishing. I really missed out moving out of the country to the big city as a child where crime bs was the replacement for fishing. Joyous blessings all. ☯️

[@BigRedEDC]

It's awesome to have those memories. Glad this could be a spark for them. Thanks for watching Greg!!

@@BigRedEDC Actually was a folder with a nail nick and lock back. Won’t bug much more after this but do you know how to make a monkey’s fist?! I’ve been wanting to learn but I have yet to find a video with enough detail to feel confident enough to make an attempt so I have yet to order para cord yet. I am not at all ever going to be a laniard on my knives kind of guy but instead want it for my keys and possibly my wowtac a1. Any suggestions where I could learn or any ideas? You might know of something that might be of help. I could buy one yet I want to go through the frustrating struggles which will make the success that much more rewarding/full filling. Thanx for tolerating my lengthy comments, I’m more of a listener when not at the keyboard online.

Those 1929 Finch knives are super cool. And the redesign improves the overall looks tremendously. Thanks for sharing.

[@BigRedEDC]

Glad you like them! Thanks for watching B WAX!

[@davidkurle5418]

I think the older model looks great, and the new one looks even better! My favorite Finch knife by a mile. Cheers, buddy!

[@BigRedEDC]

Right on David! Thanks for watching!!

[@rabadabadoo491]

Finch have absolutely nailed it. Get the bone and denim on the Holiday as well.

[@BigRedEDC]

Right on! Thanks for watching Rab!!!

So sweet! I like that they moved the markings and like the dark micarta! 🔥

Me too Cody!! Thanks for watching!!!

I totally 100% agree the perfect blend of traditional and modern. I can't wait to get one of these in hand.

Got the original 1929 in the muted yellow G10. Had to get the jig bone WOW! Love my Holliday white bone too!

Awesome Jay! Thanks for watching!

[@yeetiesandwheaties]

Baron's Man Cave in Memphis, Tennessee now carries Finch knives if anyone is trying to see them in person.

[@BigRedEDC]

Oh cool! Thanks for sharing!!

[@theedcden5515]

Very nice! I really like that they went with jigged bone! It’s like a beefy Barlow flipper. The jigged bone is my favourite 1929 but my eyes are still locked in on the Ox bone Holliday. Thanks for showing the new 1929 off again!!

[@BigRedEDC]

The jigged bone does look fantastic! The Ox bone Holliday is still my favorite!!! Thank you very much for watching!!

[@264bjoseph]

I usually don’t like wide blades.... but I think I’m going to get one. I just love the blend of classic and newer knives.

[@BigRedEDC]

Very good! Thanks so much for watching!!

[@3wheelmannc860]

I picked up the Holiday and Cimarron from DLT and they are fantastic small knives. Crawdad is sharp, but I would like to see the 1929 with a primary scale color of red bone type with black within that.

[@BigRedEDC]

Not planned for the 1929 that I know of but they do plan on a new release later this year in red smooth bone! Looking forward to that one for sure!!!

[@wasnt_it]

I agree, the jigging and the colors on that version are perfect against the sort of brushed steel finish.

[@BigRedEDC]

Really does look fantastic!! Thanks Acetone!!

[@rickkerans8485]

That moving the markings down to the tang is incredible. I didn't mind it the other way but that is just a perfect look. The Dark Denim looks really good as well. Neef the Cocobola when I can get it. The jigged bone is the perfect combination of traditional meets modern. Great video. Finch is really putting out great knives.

[@BigRedEDC]

Moving the markings was a great move for sure! The jigged bone looks so good to me! Thanks so much Rick!!

[@MichaelR58]

I like them both , but the jigging is cool with the luminous shield , thanks for sharing , God bless !

Thank you very much Michael!!

Such a great design. I love the updates as well. An awesome modern traditional. Great video brother 👍

[@BigRedEDC]

Much appreciated Jeremy! Thanks for watching!

[@jeroenvoss6231]

I can"t choose, they both are very nice i like the bladshape, the fit and finish, the whole design is great. It"s one of the best designed knife that I have seen the last years.

[@BigRedEDC]

Right on Jeroen! Cant go wrong with either one!! Thanks for watching!!

[@TheLastRanger]

I didn't mind the name out on the blade. I think the original positioning was fine. I'm a big fan of the badge/shield in the scales too. If I had to choose my Favorite is a tie between Tikuna and Holliday. You need the red g10 handle of the 1929. I got mine from TradionalPocketknives.

[@BigRedEDC]

I didnt mind either but does look much better on the tang!!

[@zacharydeshazo3121]

Just got my holiday in ghost g10 and it’s freaking ridiculous…Can’t wait to get a matching 1929.

Awesome Zachary!!

I am trying to limit myself to 2 knives this year because I am old and I have more than enough. This one looks great. Like you said, it's a great blend of traditional and modern. I'm old enough to be a grandpa, I just don't want to feel like one.

Michael, White Mountain Knives sells Finch. They deliver to Canada and get things across the border. I was skeptical so I ordered a Kubey Nova...$70 US including shipping. I did not have high hopes. Sure enough, it showed up today. Did not have to pay duty or taxes!!

Wow amazing looking 1929 knives. My question is people really like them but how often do they actually carry them? It would be more of a knife form when you dress up for something special, or if you have a nice office job. Very classy looking traditional.

[@skcamerican]

Yeah, I’m with you on the Finch. Really beautiful designs, merging the classic pocket knife with modern technology. I dig it. I find many modern knives to be cold, miss the warmth of wood and bone of grandpa knives. Grandpa knives ain’t no fun to flip, though. Plays hell with the fingernail. :) I need a Finch. The refresh is fine. I like the old shield better, but no biggie.

[@BigRedEDC]

Very good my friend! I agree with you! Thanks for watching
