X's Folding Knife Collection

[@darkchild57]

You've got a really nice refined collection my friend. Always a joy to watch a collection video from you!

[@X4CTO]

Thank you brother, I like this case a lot. I've been using it for a couple of years now so far, not a single issue to speak of.

[@X4CTO]

Well I'm glad I could help renew your outlook on blades, such a great hobby in my opinion, I've loved blades since I was 8 or 9. You're very welcome, and thank you again for watching.

[@Will4bes]

Well watching your videos has given me a renewed outlook on knives, and i've restarted colecting them but most are hunting and CRKT,Buck knives. Thanks again for the great video's.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you my friend, I appreciate it. I really like the ceramic ball over the steel ones, it's harder, better looking aesthetically, and more durable over time. Not that the solid steel balls exhibited any issues, but it's just another bonus in my personal opinion.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you, I appreciate it brother. I just didn't carry them as much... I still have about 5 Cold Steels I'll never get rid of. This was not my whole collection as I mentioned, but it's my favorites that I'll probably never get rid of unless something I can't resist comes along as a trade or something. A few of these will NEVER leave my possession.

[@X4CTO]

Well was... I have Alexandra and she's helping me feel better. She has a special way of doing that for me. LOL. Thank you brother, I appreciate it.

[@xFrostedFlake]

Please don't play that song ever again in a video.

[@X4CTO]

Yes I did, traded it to a friend that fell in love with it more than I did.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you brother, I appreciate you stopping by always.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you, I appreciate it. B&W and Pelican cases are excellent for everything. I've been using them for years.

[@deputysheriff100]

Great collection. Last week I did something I've never done before. Bought a Sebenza 21 with micarta handles from Blade HQ (My wife told me to go ahead & get it). My first really expensive knife. Love it. But even now after getting it I find I still love my Endura 4 (black scale & brown scale) and my Para Mil 2. Having the Sebenza is a rush but just can't stay away from my Spyderco's. I think you feel the same way I do about them.Don't keep Alexandra waiting too long. %^)

[@xj53pq7]

The way you swapped out the liners on your benchmade bali's looks really good!

[@X4CTO]

Thank you, I appreciate it. I do love my collection so far, and I definitely don't mind spending money on what I love.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you. These Limited Edition Grips are excellent in so many ways over the ones I had in the past, I'll detail that more in the video I do on them. Talked about them a bit a few videos back, but they're very much worth it.

[@spyderco329]

Badass collection x you really slimmed it down to the best of the best

[@X4CTO]

Ahh, a fellow Spyderco enthusiast. Nice. My favorite brand my friend. Thank you brother.

[@TemporallyAnarchaic]

I'd had in mind that swapping the G10 on the original 51 and 51-1101 would be amazing from the moment I unboxed my 1101, just hadn't gotten around to doing it yet. Seeing how the black and gold turned out in this video inspired me to finally do it. It looks so good.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you, and I appreciate you watching. I did have my custom scaled RAT-1, but I sold it to a friend not too long ago. I might end up getting one of the gray or orange ones though. I always thought the RAT-1 was and excellent knife as I've talked about it in many of my past videos.

[@X4CTO]

I have been carrying my Dodo a lot actually, was in my last EDC video and it's pretty much been between the Dodo, Sebenza and my CPM-154 Blur for a few weeks now. Thank you, I appreciate you watching.

[@X4CTO]

I got it from my local Fry's Electronics store. It's a B&W Type 50 case and it's been perfect for this.

[@whiskaleafa]

"You can't beat that like a sore dick" Subscribed!!

[@X4CTO]

Thank you bro! I am in love with the black/blue Para 2 for sure.

[@TrueWorldEarth]

Looking good. Love how you have that case setup. -Chris

[@Will4bes]

Cranberry Black coated M390, Awsome knife, Great videos as always X.

[@ivanstojanovskichann]

Love your blade choices. You must have put a lot of love and money into your collection.

[@X4CTO]

It has what you call "pluckable" foam and you can pluck out little rectangles depending on what you want to put in there.

[@X4CTO]

I got the knife case at a local Fry's electronics store, it's a B&W type 50 case. The Dodo is a sweet little blade for sure.

[@X4CTO]

Right now it's either my Southard Flipper, Vallotton, or one of my CF/CPM-154 Blurs even. I really love this Southard a lot for an all around EDC blade.

[@Tony_Seed]

why do you keep paper towels next to you bed? lol

[@X4CTO]

I will go check it out as soon as I can, I appreciate you watching.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you. =) I love all these ZT's, especially that 0550.

[@KankukanAiki]

I love these kind of videos!!!

[@X4CTO]

Thank you brother, I appreciate that. This is a B&W Type 50 case. Great case.

[@X4CTO]

Well I am glad to hear that, the LD41 is an excellent light. The A100 is a nice looking blade, I may eventually look into one, I'd need to handle it in person and see how I like it.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you bro. Hopefully I'll have about 20 new videos uploading soon... HAHA. Just got my software issues sorted. Lots of content to get up.

[@maritimespook]

Sweet case and collection my friend!!

[@X4CTO]

I got it at Fry's Electronics awhile back. Just search B&W Type 50 and you'll find it several places. If you want to look at an actual store then electronics, or sometimes sporting goods stores will offer them.

[@X4CTO]

I agree completely. I think it would refine the Para 2 a bit as well. I mean I don't have a problem with the clip it has, but I've just always loved wired clips. I love the black hardware on all black or colored handles too. I want to get some blacked out hardware for my Ti Millie so I can drop the black blade back in her. =)

[@X4CTO]

I got it at my local Fry's Electronics store a couple of years ago. You might check the Fry's website to see if they have it on sale or some of the other electronics sites. It may very well just be that it went up in price over the past couple of years though, I've not checked Fry's for these a while.

[@70VAR]

Badass collection brother, staying sharp as usual!

[@X4CTO]

Ahh OK... well I don't know that I will ever let it go, in love with it... but I'll definitely remember that.

[@X4CTO]

Yeah it would go darker or lighter than I'm thinking too, I've dyed a lot of G10 red... but I want that Endura trainer red. Very vibrant and cherry red... dark scarlet would look sexy too, but you'd need really light G10 like foliage or light gray to start with for that to work.

[@X4CTO]

Yes I have indeed, narrowed it down to the ones I really love and use the most. I will build it back up with some higher end blades I think though. Well welcome back, and thank you my friend. =)

[@eaglemasterdan]

Great collection man!!! Alot of awesomeness in a pelican case!

[@X4CTO]

I love my 755 MPR's. Thank you my friend, I appreciate you watching.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you, I appreciate it. I still need to get the foliage green Smallfly myself.

[@Hawkgx28Pyro]

Always like watching collection videos.

[@X4CTO]

I love the Manix 2 Lightweight, many times I've sung it's praises in videos. People were concerned about it's durability and such, but way back in my videos and now, it's still holding up great. ZDP-189 is some crazy stuff, holds an edge for what seems like ever. HAHA. My current favorite is M390 and Spyderco's CTS-204P is quickly becoming a favorite as well. I'm loving my Blur with CPM-154 too, great stuff. I can't help it, I'm a blade steel junkie of sorts. =)

[@X4CTO]

Thank you, I appreciate that compliment. =) I am in love with the black/blue Para 2. Damn $370 for a Ti Millie? Well you know what... knowing what I know about it now, I would have paid that myself. I love that knife so much. I like it better than my Sebenza in a few ways actually.

[@X4CTO]

I have no clue, I might do the math one day... but I know it's priceless to me because I love these, they're my babies. =)

[@Throatwobbler_Mangrove]

That suitcase is worth more than my truck probably. Beautiful collection.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you my friend, I appreciate it. Plenty more on the way.

[@X4CTO]

I had a Civilian in my possession for a few months, I liked it a lot... however... I have others I prefer more for the task that the Civilian was intended for. I used to always preach the benefits of the hawkbill blade design in my older videos, all that still stands.

[@X4CTO]

Well thank you brother, I certainly appreciate that. These are my babies.

[@aricschannel1]

Hey x thanks for the advice on the southard flipper.

[@sinrik77]

Brother, you have a REAL nice collection. You know I just dig them P2s. Lol glad to see a new vid from you

[@K-P-EZ]

Earnt yourself a new sub my dude! Keep the great work coming!

[@X4CTO]

Thank you for the compliment by the way, I appreciate it.

[@X4CTO]

Easily one of my favorites to carry.

[@KidDeuce34]

Very awesome collection bro. Just started mine bought my first knife tac force speedster model. I GOT a question where could I get a case like that?? I WANT to put my knives in there until I by a display case

[@X4CTO]

I got it from my local Fry's Electronics for around $70 or so. It's a B&W Type 50, you can probably find it cheaper online.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you, I appreciate it. These are my favorites, pretty much let everything else go. I'll build it back up with $200+ knives though. HAHA. I'm spoiled now.

[@X4CTO]

Nice. Enjoy them brother. Those look like workers for sure.

[@dannothemanno11]

ive got a 5" perseverance and a beta-5 coming my way, looking forward to getting em and testing em downrange

[@X4CTO]

HAHA! Well it's on the way to you so hopefully it will be there soon. I have yet to look at many of the 2013 collections of knives, I will start browsing around again soon though. I'll have to check out some of the new Cold Steel blades indeed.

[@X4CTO]

I agree, great knives. Oh and I wish they would do the wire clips on many more of their knives, I love Spyderco's wire clips, been saying that forever. I would have liked a wire clip on the Para Military 2 myself.

[@1002grunt]

Sweet knife collection.

[@X4CTO]

It's a B&W Type 50 case, I got it at a Fry's electronics store.

[@X4CTO]

Well thank you, I appreciate you watching.

[@X4CTO]

I have two safes. One for my guns and one for knives. I put this whole case into the safe when I'm not here. The case is a B&W Type 50 case.

[@X4CTO]

Indeed. I still have a couple more Enduras around that weren't in this video. Like the Glock Tool Endura and my trainer, those stay in my EDC bag. And I have about 13 more around the house as well that were not in this video. I am very much anticipating the knives that will fill those slots too, not sure where to go with my collection next at the moment though. HAHA.

[@huiwang7878]

can I have more information about your first knife that call fixed blade. where I can got it and how much around? I really like it.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you bro. Always sharp indeed. =)

[@HOODTRACKZ8]

The blue milli looks dope as hell!!

[@v8esprit]

Dang that blue PM looks so awesome X! I just got back from a trip and opened my blue m390 up this morning. Playing around with it at work. I'll be doing the operation tonight, splitting the scales between the blue and the murder black. I've never uploaded a video but I just might try my hand at a video response... I've got something that will match up pretty nice with the knives... if you are lucky, I'll share... but that's going to have to be a surprise. :)

[@X4CTO]

Agreed, I completely concur. Thank you!

[@X4CTO]

Yes it does, works very well in fact.

[@X4CTO]

You're welcome, and thank you for watching.

[@X4CTO]

Well I appreciate you watching, glad you love it. =)

[@vikingssoul]

Thats why I thought of you, after years of videos I know you are no BS like me and these are right up that alley, brutally simple.

[@Gearnut26]

Yeah like I said I've been loving the look of that blur. Looking to grab one soon. I'm not as picky with steals, to a point. Perhaps that will change over time, though...I mean, heck, when I started my knife collection a year ago I thought I'd never get anything bigger than the bear grylls scout folder...and now I'm currently carrying a large Espada, spyderco centofante 3, manbug, and an urban pal tucked away. And today's a light day ;)

[@X4CTO]

Hey brother, you're not bugging me at all... I always like talking to you all when I can. I am honestly not sure where you could find a G-10 Endura, it's been discontinued a long time ago so they're harder to come by on the secondary market. Maybe the forums or ebay perhaps. I have this one in brand new condition I might be willing to sale for the right offer as well. I was considering selling it a few months back. Either way, I wish you luck.

[@X4CTO]

I used liquid Rit dye and boiled it with a little salt in the solution to help with adhesion. I was going to make a video on it, I think I might have one somewhere on my channel. It's very easy to do.

[@X4CTO]

I think more makers should use M390 and CTS-204P... such great steels. Unfortunately they're not used as much, compared to S30V or 154CM... I like CPM-154 a lot more than 154CM too, that's one that's close to M390 in terms of performance in my testing so far. That Kershaw Blur with CPM-154 is a steal at around $100, I think it would have sold at $150 or more even. I recommend it highly and I'll be doing a video on it soon.

[@doc1361]

Subscribed. You're too funny. Keep up the good work man.

[@X4CTO]

It's a B&W Type 50 case, I got it at my local Fry's Electronics.

[@X4CTO]

The CPM-154 Blur is excellent, love the steel! As for a good way to get into M390, let me think about that. Cold Steel's AUS-8A and Spyderco's VG-10 has been great for me as well, good steels in their own right. I love S30V, most of what I have is S30V, just a great steel all around. Back to M390... well you can get a limited knifeworks exclusive Benchmade 710 in M390, the Para 2, or these 755's can sometime be on sale at knifeworks. You're looking at $150 ish up though.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you brother, I appreciate it. I keep this box inside of a 1000 lbs. safe when my hand is not firmly wrapped around the handle of said case. LOL.

[@heynewgirl]

The endura g10 dyed in Scarlett will look awesome

[@X4CTO]

Thank you, I appreciate it. Yeah I've seen the Darrel Ralph AXD, not bad at all... but if I'm dropping that kind of bread I'd honestly probably buy another gun. I've been staying around $300 on what I buy. My Sebenza was a gift from my Ex wife, so I don't know if I would have went up to $400 on a blade, maybe since I do love it knowing what I know now.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you my friend, I appreciate that compliment. =)

[@X4CTO]

Traded it to a friend that loved it more than me.

[@CatacombCustoms]

Awesome collection mon ami, love that dodo- how is the ceramic ball compared to steel?

[@X4CTO]

I've had several Bucks (still do), Schrades and Case knives. Sold most of them though. I have some older videos on a few of my Buck knives floating around out there.

[@X4CTO]

I got my knife case at a Fry's electronics store. It's a B&W Type 50 case.

[@X4CTO]

Thank you my friend, I appreciate that. HAHA! When I'm making a video nothing stops that. We were laying in bed playing with my knife collection, I was trying to show her how to flip a balisong but she was a little nervous of it, liked it though. =)

[@X4CTO]

Well the B&W cases are very secure, and they come in all sizes.

[@ikarus1415]

Nice collection!

[@Thespydercoronin]

great collection x i personally like the foliage green smallfly
