Sad because it's true

[@bani_niba]

What a rarity - talking to a sane person on a knife-enthusiast channel.

[@BradGryphonn]

Pete sitting in his Chinos and blazer sipping on red wine while Tree destroys the cool of his knives is a joy to behold.

[@sonofliberty78]

You married extremely well, mate. Your wife’s patience for your knife obsession is quite commendable. 😁

[@dangreb8257]

Kinda funny to me that folks perceive other collectibles as “normal” : stamps, coins, watches, teacups, first editions of books, baseball cards… But maybe because knives have such a clear-cut functional purpose - it’s hard to separate the function and perceive the collectible aspect… 🤷‍♂️ It’s enjoyable to watch you two converse / banter - thank you for creating such videos 😊😎

[@krazmokramer]

Dude....you lucked out big time. You're a super nice decent guy, BUT, your wife is SO tolerant! First the Pastoralist hat thing, then the knife for her birthday. The term Bobbitized comes to mind. This was a very fun video. THANKS TO BOTH OF YOU! Happy Birthday, Theresa (sp)!! Maybe you should rename this channel to Cedric & Ada Gear and Outdoors And Family Counseling.

[@J3RK115]

Me: *Watches video despite the title* Also me: *cries whilst holding my knives*

[@tidge879]

Years ago I bought my wife a victorinox classic, just for her keyring. She looked at me the same, like I was insane. A few weeks ago, she lost it, missed it, and took mine off my keys, now I'm victorinox-less and she's happy.

[@nandayane]

I gave my wife a knife, exact same reaction. Bravo to Tree and all of our partners that tolerate our strange hobby, keeping us humble.

[@Grummash]

It’s so refreshing to hear your Mrs say.. “it’s a bit boring...”. Nobody is honest enough say that about some fashionable knives 👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@DL-ij7tf]

I genuinely don't understand the obsession with the CRK Sebenza. It looks okay I guess, very standard with standard features and materials. I don't get it.

[@CNYKnifeNerd]

@@DL-ij7tf You know how you can look at certain things (not just knives, pretty much anything) and narrow it down to within a few years of when they came out, but others just look timeless, like when you look at an early 90s NSX and it still looks great today, but an 80s Countach is peak 80s design. That's the difference between trendy design and timeless design. There's nothing objectively wrong with trendy designs, but there's something special about a design that looks good at any time in any situation. That's the Sebenza.

[@lionknives3]

Man I never saw you smiling so much! Just awesome to see you both together! Greetings from Austria

[@TacticalNooby]

Oh my gosh! I can't stop laughing! your wife is a great sport for doing this and taking video. I will not show this to my wife, but my daughter who has a few knives might watch it. Great video!!!

[@sweetdrahthaar7951]

You two are so much fun. I still remember the camping trip by the river that never happened because of the sketchy folks that floated by😂

[@kevola5739]

Your discussion brings up a very good point about how to carry your edc. While most edc afflicted seem to focus on “what” to carry the decision seems to be determined by the “how” to carry options. In your pocket is only convenient when your pockets are not full with other must have items. Adding a pouch or bag seems to lead to attempting to carry more rather than conveniently carrying the organized necessities. The emptying of the purse seems to confirm this. Having said that, the purse with the bow on the side paired with the Fossil watch is a very classy combination. It reminds me of the saying “ Fashion is fickle but style is timeless”. Well done!

[@kermitthepog7063]

The bag dump was honestly my favourite part. For similar reasons to why I enjoyed your video showing us how and where on your person you carry all your EDC gear, it's something I find very interesting about EDC but it's hardly ever discussed.

[@pateralus9]

Tree, you're the best. I hardly ever say stuff like this, but you two are genuinely cute together! I'm so glad she's honest here about knives. I collect & am always searching for the next thing, & am always justifying another purchase like a lot of us. But at the same time, I admit it's completely ridiculous to have more than, say two knives. And I only say two instead of one because it's good to have a backup in case anything happens to the first. But that's it. And yet, I still own about thirty knives. Which isn't even all that bad compared to a lot of us! And I try to keep the value on the most expensive ones at less than $300. And even then, only about ten of them are worth more than about $150 USD. Anyway, I love hearing a truly honest opinion from someone who's got a completely untainted view of the knife & EDC world (aside from any tainting Pete has done to you already subconsciously haha). Pete, your wife is clearly an intelligent & kind woman. And funny!! :o)

[@reallife3338]

Couldn't you say scissors are technically a double-bladed knife with a weird handle? It's a long shot but had to try 🤣🤣

[@wtfmrb293]

I got my wifu a basic mora 511. She’s super impressed

[@dickshadow3861]

I gave my wife a lightning OTF with dagger profile and a beautiful We Knife Cirrus. The lightning sits in a kitchen cupboard and is used almost daily for Amazon boxes. I think she would as easily use scissors but ended up enjoying the OTF action and showing it off to her friends. The We sits in her dressor drawer. I dont believe it has so much as opened a letter. Great vid man. I think many of us can relate to this experience.

[@Cid_1]

Fun fact: Lett Vind actually means Light Wind. Like after a bean burrito.

[@mmikee407]

Pete, you have a gem of a wife to quote Nick Shabazz 😁. Reminded me of my own. Sweet, understanding, down to earth and does not feel jealous from the hobby or the women you intend to talk to about knives if that may ever happen 😁. I believe having a wife like her renders all other women ( with due respect) null and void. Bless you both. Greeting from Brissie.

[@lindboknifeandtool]

Me following a femal knife collector “Why tf are you following her?”

[@PinataOblongata]

This is my favourite knife video of all time. Your wife is awesome and her watch looks sweet :D It's completely true, there's no good reason for an urbanite who doesn't go hiking/camping every weekend to carry a knife (I often go for walks in nature to do some bird photography or just for the exercise, but even then a keyring torch has been more useful thana knife). For handy-man or other trade-related purposes, there's usually a better tool for the job that you can carry in a tool bag/box, or a simple Stanley knife will actually be better or at least do the trick. If you do end up carrying one all the time, you will eventually come across a time when it comes in handy, and without it you might have had to improvise something else, but you'll be carrying it for no reason 99.99% of the time. Often just having one in your glove box, centre console or bag/backpack/briefcase is likely to make sure that on the odd occasion you might need one, you've got one available (and if you keep it in your car it can be one of those belt-cutter & glass-breaker combos as a par of your safety kit, but most knife people hate those, heh). Really, blokes just like the man-jewellery aspect and they have this fantasy that they can seem both useful/prepared and stylish and maybe slightly dangerous/cool to random people if and when someone needs one for something and they can, ahem, whip it out and show it off. I say just investigate what's out there and choose the best for your purposes so you've got one on the off-chance you ever need one more directly handy than a kitchen knife, and then get on with your life. TBH, the fact that Knife Centre in the US can upload a "new knives of the week" video every single week and there are so many designs and people dedicate so much time to geeking out over their specs and stuff is all a bit weird and sad - it's time, energy and money that could go inti more important things or things that would at least get more use Iike scented candles ;) ). And the people who pay thousands of dollars for "safe queens" when most of us are struggling to even pay the power bill and you could buy a decent 2nd hand car for the same price... disgusting to me.

[@ST-ue5fb]

Tree - "What makes it quiet?" LOL!

[@LisaInTheSkyMU]

I don’t EDC the little Spyderco you gave me, but it comes out for all packages. I really like it, hasn’t needed a sharpen yet 😊 Nifty little knife 🔪

[@deathbyastonishment7930]

You both look healthy and happy, thanks for being a good sport Tree

[@susans.2664]

Don't know why this year-old video popped up but I'm glad it did! You two are absolutely wonderful to watch and so funny. I am a woman who bought her first knife (on old Olsen lockback) 30 years ago and today have about100 of all types, modern and traditional. Just used my Tenacious in M4 steel to cut a cracker box for recycling. Earlier I cut back some brush during my walk with the dog. And I use folders at the dinner table. Love knives!

[@Hexonip]

I found your channel today via your "British Shorthair Cat Review" and absolutely dig what you're doing here! Just a quick anecdote regarding how I started carrying a flashlight/torch: I too had used my phone for a light as needed, however I was working on a snowblower machine and scratched the shit out of the glass screen (expensive flagship type device). I ordered my first EDC flashlight that evening. For those of us fortunate enough to have reasonable pockets in our wardrobes it was a seamless addition. Things like the Streamlight Microstream with a AAA battery are such a convenient form factor that I've never second-guessed the decision. My wife uses my flashlight often as well, but primarily due to pocket limitations she does not carry one -- even though she acknowledges the value proposition. Cheers!

[@wilsonline90]

Imagine if the wife was a KZbinr that review purses and gave you one. And made you carry it for a week. lol

[@JohnSmith-pu3pm]

I have been watching your vids for years, and I LOVED THIS. Like you said, no agenda, truth. And I found it funny that you were the one who needed the glass of wine. I often work with Ranch type guys, and they usually carry a knife, but a lot of them carry scissors in a sheath as well. Scissors are prolly gonna be the next TACTICOOL accessory, because the fact is, they work. Well. Circly is my new fabborit technical knife term. "Squishy" is second. I love a circly squishy knife. However, I'll be selling all my knives because the hobby is ruined for me. Thanks wife.

[@BradGryphonn]

The discussion about what knife one uses in the kitchen was interesting. I always have a knife in my pocket at home (currently my big Crooked River) and generally use the pocket knife rather than open the drawer to grab a kitchen knife. After use it gets a quick clean with a disinfectant wipe and back in the pocket.

[@d4mdcykey]

Pete going all out here with the wine and sharp fashion, it's like if Father Knows Best suddenly started hoarding knives and the family kind of goes with it but is not quite sure how this will end. By the way, your wife seems to be a wonderful partner and her sense of humor is on-point.

[@Thomas-dz4eg]

She is an adorable lady. Always enjoy having her in your videos Pete!

[@Forester17]

Love it Pete, just watched this with my wife and we could relate to everything! She even went to get her handbag to see what was in it after the video

[@destro6971]

Greetings Onion Wife! Your sacrifices for our amusement are appreciated. 🤘🏼😆🤘🏼

[@TODinWY]

Wife's birthday was yesterday. She got an Endura in a specific color. She Loved It!

[@slalomnorth]

This is great, my girlfriend is the same way. She’s like, what do you need all these for? Breaks my heart every time

[@loz6518]

Just goes to show some things are universal - like our partners being supportive but not really understanding our obsessive hobbies. I tried with my wife and through the tears of laughter she settled on the Victorinox. She has since used the knife many times - to remove the wrappers of chupa chups, which are too tough for my little kids. The scissors have saved more than one cracked nail and twice she used the knife at a picnic. I guess that counts as EDC and I’m claiming that justifies all the money I spend.

[@stevestory8483]

Should totally do a car safety/car edc kit video

[@palangston1]

Oh man I’m dying right now. I’ve been trying to push an edc knife on my wife lately. I sent her this, apologized, and promised to try and stop bothering her with it. 😂😂😂😂

[@Shanes_sharp_sheet]

This was great!, pretty much the way my wife is with her knife (para3 20cv DLC grng10) if she needs a knife for a task and everything else she has tried fails, and she happens to remember she has a knife..great!!! But yeah, she absolutely loves her para 3 when she remembers she has it..lol!

[@mattlilly2303]

I would think the company has gotten a lot of useful criticism from a point of view they may not usually get. More so in a far more realistic attitude where she wasn't looking for reasons to use it ( aside from the yoghurt and like ).This is a REAL, real world review. Well done.

[@knownaigm]

She made a great choice. I have that same Latt Vind mini, even the same color, and it's such a great day to day user. The like squashed-pill overall design of it actually is super comfortable in use.

[@johnscarborough4746]

Happy birthday Teresa!!!

[@InsAznKlown3]

That is the same model knife I picked for my wife as well and she loves it. The detent was perfect for her and she feels like it has an amazing action, and she also liked the aesthetics/colors.

[@gregtomamichel973]

Every now and then I try to mention something about my interests to my wife and 2 teenage daughters..... tumbleweeds.

[@onesky8647]

All she needs now is a fire steel, then she’ll be able to start a fire anywhere. Pete’s salami strategy of small steps is working. :)

[@louferrigno4712]

To be honest I use my edc flashlight much more than my knife

[@edwardmorley8359]

Good choice. Minor suggestion: If you're going to reverse grip, flip the knife around so the edge is out and away from you; this also gives a more secure grip, and if it does slip it will cut a finger instead of your palm. It's much less likely to slip because your choil is gripped with the fingers instead of sitting on your palm.

[@tombrown4683]

Always enjoy seeing the misses in your videos. That's because of the great chemistry you two have & is readily apparent on screen. Tree you are such a good sport in these videos & I appreciate you honest appraisal. There is no pandering going on here ! You are both very fortunate - such a great couple !!

[@JoeyKnifeInnovations]

The best knife episode so far, ever, anywhere in KZbin 😂 I can totally relate. My wife is exactly as pragmatic as youres, but she says "It is nice that you always carry I knife If I ever needed one"

[@officialandproper]

Happy B day to Tree! Always good to see you on the channel, and thanks for the good humor and the devastatingly honest view of pocket knives and such. 😄 I'm fortunate in my household that my GF will happily indulge me with questions like "oh no, an envelope. How will I possibly open this?" 😀

[@_BLANK_BLANK]

Lol.i always love these videos that involve dragging theresa into to it.

[@mgrsdgfsdafsdgrsdgfsdg6980]

Half the time my knife is just pocket jewelry. Its like the 21st century version of men in the Renaissance wearing a sword (I would use the correct terminology but YT would prob censor it lol). BTW need more puppies.

[@AliceBrumley]

Love your wife! She is such a good sport. I’m a mom, and I use my knives all the time. Cutting the little plastic strings that attach tags to new clothes, cutting tape when opening packages, cutting open plastic packaging whe the “pull here” tab fails and rips off, opening plastic clamshell packaging, cutting down cardboard boxes to fit better into recycling bin, cutting off the long hair that gets wrapped around the beater roller bar of my vacuum cleaner, slicing gigantic pizza/hot dogs at the Costco food court (plastic knives suck)… so many uses! There was a spell where it was so useful to have a knife when out and about with toddlers and having to cut food down to pea-sized pieces. If you buy your wife a bouquet of fresh cut flowers, a very sharp knife is essential when cutting the bottom inch of the stems so the flowers can drink the water. Scissors will crush the plant cells and the flowers won’t be able to thrive as long. (Hint-hint!)

[@AliceBrumley]

Also, she can use her knife to sharpen her ikea pencil now. lol!

[@tombrown4683]

Forgot to say, Tree you are looking sharp, & thumbs up for your commentary at 12:30 on the video. Like honest reaction, so much better than hype I see on some knife channels !!! 👍👍👍

[@javiersaturno9689]

This is the best video of the year, and I have loved many of your vids. She is lovely. And yes, we are sick. Congratulations on so many levels.

There are many things You can do quicker when you're used to carry and use a knife. ... in my opinion...but im a kind of person who feels that something's not wright when i don't have a knife with me. Greetings from Poland. Cheers

[@alfredoflores2859]

I’m fairly new to your channel. I especially like this conversation between you your significant other. To this day a knife remains my first significant gift to my romantic interest. I’ve found their reactions to be a great indicator of compatibility. I married the woman who wore my gift, and she carried several through our time together . I’ve gifted a few since. If they don’t put it in their pocket it doesn’t work out..

[@johnhughes905]

That’s the most honest and pragmatic review we’re going to see. Ha! Don’t be disappointed, we all have different passions. I guess it’s true that we sometimes give other gifts we would like. Your wife loves you anyway.

[@area51.52]

Your wife is funny, Pete 😂. I like when she’s included in your videos.

[@scdub]

That’s probably the funniest video you’ve posted yet. Your wife is adorable, and I’m sure she’ll come around if you just give her a few more knives. Does she have a fixed-blade survival knife yet??

[@erict149]

I feel your pain my friend! My wife doesn't get my addiction and sees absolutely no reason to have more than one knife. I just got a Kubey Tityus ($40) and a WE Mini Malice ($250) and she said they look like the same knife because they both have blue handles.😁But just like your wife, mine is pretty cool about it and lets me indulge, within reason of course. Hell, I'd go broke buying knives if it weren't for her keeping me in check.😏

[@Grummash]

You two are brilliant together!

What are the elements of the hobby beyond the utility of just having something sharp nearby?

Well, lad, let's hope that you have some additional romantic gifts in mind...its obvious by your consumption of the grape that the possibility is going through your mind that you might end up in the dog house... :))) Interestingly enough, I liked & chose the red knife prior to you both discussing it...Your wife is a great sport in doing this great video...may you both continue to have a long & happy life together...Happy birthday, ma'am!

Very interesting video, I feel your pain Pete. My wife doesn’t really like knives. But she saw my Lightning OTF, and played with it a little bit. Then she said “I’d carry and use one of these” So I bought her 2 LOL. 1 lives in her purse, and the other one in the drawer in the kitchen. I just thought it was funny, because she liked the Lighting better than my Spyderco’s lol.

[@JohannSwart_JWS]

I'm kinda wondering what outcome you expected from this risky endeavour. When she started dumping her bag, I thought - no way this is gonna be honest. But trooper like she is - there came the tampon as well. Good on ya both mates. Respect.

[@adammcguinness9950]

Your wife has the same attitude about pocket knives as my wife/daughter. Both of them are certain that I only need one, they all do the same thing and look the same. They don’t understand that each one has its own job and and and and….😂 I’ve given them their own knives but it’s an uphill battle. I wish my wife would carry a 4” blade, my daughter isn’t ready yet. My wife carries a Spyderco Honeybee. It’s a good ‘little’ knife but even that is still in its box.

[@hillbillyfromtheswamp6223]

Absolutely hilarious!! Love seeing all the positive smiles. Great video guys!

[@BigBellyEd]

Making this video must have cost a lot of prestige points.

[@archivist17]

So, now knife KZbin is over, what are your plans? 😆

[@Airik1111bibles]

My wife actually likes small fixed blades for the kitchen but outside of that she thinks I'm pretty much crazy. You need to find a knife that has a lip balm built into the handle or better yet instead of a firesteel it could hold mascara .
