@@SensationsRim as another commenter said I don’t think rattlesnake would be willing to put his name on it if it wasn’t m390. I’d have to agree with that logic but I haven’t sharpened mine yet and so when I do I’ll get a better feel for the steel and try to report back. Thanks for watching.

@@Doughnutt_edc I’ve never held the padre but the compadre for me is a very good size. I can’t get a full 4 finger grip on it without using the choke up. It’s very comfortable given it’s not contoured. I have a full review of it up if u r interested.

Thanks for helping the algorithm, so this content reaches as many people as possible. Ur support is appreciated.

Thanks for watching.

They did a lot right with this knife and like I said as soon as I had it in hand it was obvious that time and effort went into designing this knife. I was really happy I decided to get one.

It really was a very surprising find made me excited to see more knives with these tuning board things as I think most people wanted a factor for the sound but not factor had it so this gives u that every time u close it and open it they just need to refine it to where it’s a super satisfying ting.

@@EDC_DRE I can’t wait to here what u think and I’ll look out for the video I truly love mine

@ have you tried any of the CRK clones?

@@EDC_DREno I haven’t the only clones I have r spk Rosie mcnees 3 and 3.5. Squirrel master xl, factor, emp edc in Ultem by jeabrother, 2 little fixed blades by jeabrother that r boker clones I think. And a green thorn shiro bio. That’s it. There r many more I’d like to buy I’m really thinking about that spartan harsey plague doctor by jufule it looks so nice also the meriken ultimatum as well. What ones do u have?

@ this will be my first clone

@@EDC_DREI was going to tell u if I was going to order a crk clone I’d go green thorn I believe there build quality from I’ve seen to be better than jufule and I believe the blade will be real vg10 I know on some of jufules they r older runs and he dosent seem to list the steel which probably means it’s like 8cr or something pretty cheap imo. The one green thorn I have is so well made it’s hard to believe at $75-80 it’s the shiro bio clone in vg10

@@michaelmann8647 I wish I was still young sigh. My daughter just turned 18 about to leave the nest and head to college 😢 I’m 41 about to be 42 come Feb 11th lol. I really appreciate u watching. I love knives and I just enjoy talking about them and I just don’t have any friends or family that r into them like we r so this is a way for me to jibber jabber about them and not get that look like what is he even talking about lol.

@ We’re not too far apart….turning 50 and I’ve got a 22 and 20 yr old I found you just by research knives I was into, once I realized you had several I was looking at - subscribed. 😎 This Kunwu is cool then I looked up how much it costs. I’m more your budget and clone level of craziness.

@@michaelmann8647​​⁠ if I’m being honest I shouldn’t be buying knives in this price range. My next review will be more in the higher end of what I should be spending on a knife $115-120. I love feeling like I got a great deal on a great piece. I can for sure say I don’t feel that with this knife because it’s in that price category that’s just to high for me personally. The next knife I’m going to review is nicer than this kunwu better action better ergos just a better knife imo for only $115 vs the $300.

@@SteelAddicted oooohh, teaser! That's kinda my ceiling too. I just got a couple vosteeds in that range and it wasn't easy to hit the buy button

@@michaelmann8647I hear u what Vosteed did u pick up? The Martin by chance?

@@MindOfMilton it really is I’m going to probably make a video about it today since I’ve been able to carry it for a few days. An all around great knife with wonderful fit and finish. 👍

@@yehasyavuz that’s why it’s called best value knife of the year and I explicitly say that multiple times. I never said this was a budget piece in any way shape or form. Sry if u got the wrong idea.

Thanks a bunch for watching I really appreciate it.

@@FerretChloride no I haven’t it just looks so small every time I see a video of it that I was to scared to pull the trigger. I did just order the feweed from wmk I was hopeful I could use the 10% off on it but no luck still it will show up quicker than through Kizer. I wanna see if the dlc version of it will have that same silky smooth closing action. Have u see the vanguard breaker that thing looks very nice I hate I missed the full dlc version as that’s th e one I want. Also lemifshe just released a new one I’ll show u a link for it

Agreed, I should have mentioned that luckily, it's internal stop pins.

​@@SteelAddictedYes it is, and I have cut my own sharpening choil in it. Same goes for the mini.

@@HagyviewI haven’t had to sharpen mine yet still holding on strong with a strop now and then but tbh it’s overdue and I keep putting it off for this reason as if u hit that plunge with ur stone it’ll take the dlc off and look extra terrible so I’ll have to add my own with the dremel like u have.

@@EDC_DRE it’s a winner for sure everyone should own one imo.

@@pateralus9 lol I like that. That’s what I’m going to start calling it. Nice 👍

@@pateralus9 thank u for posting that here. I sent in an spk to apex alchemy and he has a video on his channel doing the hrc test it was a 60.5 same with the lemifshe mcnees 3” which I can say is a better made clone than the jufule 3.5 imo anyway. I really appreciate u taking the time to post that about the fosie and Rosie. My stop pins r both tight but I can pry it apart without tools and it goes back together just fine but it is for sure tight I’ve heard others complain about that as well. Lock bar disengagement on my pj copy is fine but not so much on the radial which is stiffer to disengage. My detents were also light very light luckily u can move the lock bar and greatly improve the action. I’ve ordered a set of skiffs and they should be here soon but I’m not holding my breath as to how much it will improve the drop. I’m prob going to send in a fosie to have the hrc tested as well just to see where it’s at but it does hold an edge just as good as my spk clone imo. I wonder if the new batch he just listed will be better like the spk was because the spk was greatly improved from batch 1 to batch 2 better plunge better action more refined over all. Again thanks for commenting. 👍

It’s very very nice I should have picked up a kunwu a while back. This thing screams use me with its ergos and the edge they put on it. It’s a winner through and through. Now I keep looking at the timascus clip and back spacer my girl is going to leave me I’m sure of it. Lol. I hope u had a good new year 🎉

Idk if u saw but they r back in stock 👍

@ ohhhhh sooner than I expected 🤣 damn it that’s gonna be a late night purchase this weekend, I can feel it in my bones.

@ lol I hear u. Hey will let me know if my mcnees spine whack video is to harsh???

@@SteelAddicted for sure dude! I’ll leave some feedback for ya 🤘

I finally wired up the courage to move over my daughters copy the one in this video and ur right I was able to improve it greatly and I used the sharpie method like u said and it worked I had tried using graphite from a pencil but that didn’t work. Thanks a lot for the info much appreciated.

Nice to hear ur take on it. I think once a knife maker reaches the success that warrants a clone of there model the clone almost brings them more recognition and sales because if its good enough to be cloned it almost elevates the statues of the og. That being said I’ve seen them clone some knives that r way off the beaten patch like the squirrel master xl. It’s almost like the owner bought a real one and said fuck it let’s make a clone just because we can. In that case I’d say it’s an issue but the real versions of those r usally true customs and so at that point we r talking about a different audience and price for the og. Idk I’m conflicted part of me likes to think if the midtech production knives (oz machine, mcnees, spk) we’re more fairly priced and readily available (mcnees shouldn’t be included here I think they r pretty fair and available) then they wouldn’t get cloned or if they did the clones wouldn’t sell like they r. The Rosie clone has sold over 700 units last I checked it will be in the thousands soon. If oz wanted to they could have released a budget version of the Rosie but what r they going to do charge 450 for g10 scales and 14c28n? It just wouldn’t sell but people r happy to over pay for the ti and super steel. I say over pay but the equipment to make these folders is astronomical I’ve done some pricing and a run down of some of the actual machines in there shops ur talking $100,000 plus easily maybe pushing 2 depending on the models and how new they r. So when u start factoring in that plus if the maker wants this to be their real job and not a secondary hobby just to live decent u need $30 an hour imo if u own a house and have a mortgage in today’s economy. So idk is $600-$900 to much for a usa made midtech maybe but not by as much as I’d probably like to think. Then again abw and trm put out some great usa made gems for under or right at $400 so I just don’t know. I do know if people feel like there over paying for a name and that same company is creating scarcity with there product by not meeting the demand it’s prime real estate for a cloner to come in and make bank. I like many people just want to be part of the crowd we r sheeple and sheeple do sheeple shit.

@@SteelAddicted I feel all of thos to my core. I easily have 10 grand in my silly little shop and it isn't fully functional. I need another 10 grand to be able to make a knife from start to finish without leaving my shop. I'm picking up what you're putting down.

@ man just buying a true cnc machine like haas vf series or fanuc robodrill ur talking big money and that’s just cnc not including a cnc lathe, laser engraver, grinders, sand blasting station, tumbling set up and any other stuff I’m missing. Of course these items are bought little by little and u up grade along the way but I think people see a fixed blade and assume a folder wouldn’t be much harder to produce. Which from what I’ve gather couldn’t be further from the truth no offense as I know u make ur own fixed blades and I am in no way trying to take anything away from what u make they r beautiful and time consuming in there own ways, but to achieve the quality and action to charge $700 for a folder and be able to simi mass produce them this is what it takes.

@SteelAddicted right, no offense taken ! Fixed blades are definitely easier to make by hand but both can be. Still need those bead blasting stations , tumbling stations, mills , drill press, band saw, 2x72 grinders. Big wheels , small wheels , heat treat oven, plates stainless steel wrap...price all that stuff too. 😎🤘

@ yeah after all that it’s no wonder knife designers just turn to china to make the damn things for them. Lol. I’m telling u it’ll shed a whole new light on ur perspective for people who make things buy hand or with cnc and makes me respect the craft more and more. I think like metal complex has said it’s easier for people to distill things down to there simplest forms and rationalize them that way, instead of stepping back and taking the time to work through it and break down everything that goes it the item ur saying isn’t worth said price tag. But u know to a lot of people a light is on or off. Something is or it isn’t. That knife is worth x that knife isn’t. I’d be a hypocrite if I said I wasn’t guilty of that line of thinking myself from time to time.

@@SensationsRim I would assume they r. I can try with my radial and plain Jane but they r both from batch 1. I’ll try just to see and get back to u latter today when I get home from work

@@SteelAddicted I asked Jufule but his translated response was confusing then he said maybe. Sales slowed down so there's still some inventory and time to think about.

Yeah I wouldn’t bank on it working if it were me.

I’ll never buy another real McNees! I gave 600 for it new, had a huge lockbar gap. Looks awful

I've heard a lot of people complain about lock bar related issues with the real from lock stick to over travel. I think mcnees has finally admitted defeat and started putting lock bar inserts on his newest versions I thought I saw something about that but I could be wrong. I would love to check out one of the new ones with the wavey milled line pattern on the titanium.

@@SteelAddictedmine has no over travel or stick but it just simply looks bad with that huge gap.

@@sethprice241 I know right

@@Hagyview it’s from jufule but I wanted people to be able to see them in action before they buy them. I wish he could post a video of him flipping them on the listing.

@SteelAddicted Yes I know, he sent me this one today.

@ oh ok lol I figured u knew but u know I can be slow sometimes. They all look good I’m honestly willing to bet they r better than the 1st batch. I just had apex alchemy do an hrc test on the spk clone came back at 60.5 hrc

@@SteelAddicted Just watched it a minute ago 😆😆

AliExpress jufule Rosie I’d rather not do the link I’m not sure if I’ll get in trouble for that or how that works. Lol I’m probably being stupid but just download the AliExpress app and search for jufule Rosie and u will see it

@@Jaysedc that’s the one I ordered there up now

@@BladesOnABudget no problem. I hope it helps u decide if u want to get one it’s a great knife imo.

@@sergeiokatieff1060 that sucks. It’s nice fixed blade I haven’t really used it to see how the steel holds up I really need to.

@@Luis-ml3uz I don’t I can try ask him to see if he will give me a time I tried to explain to him that a lot of people r wanting these and I think they will sell fast again so I’ll try again

@SteelAddicted if you find out let me know, I'm trying to get my hand on one of those. Happy new years man

@ yeah for sure I’ll make a another shot if I get any new info just sub and turn on notifications u can turn them off in the next few days but that way if I forget to comment to u here u will see it.

Yes! I've been searching

There up to buy now

Good to hear that. I have ordered the bath 1, but it is lost on the way 😢

@ did he refund u?

Not yet, but he assured me not to worry and that he would refund the money as soon as possible. The website doesn't allow the refund option yet because they say it's still on its way. I have to wait a few days for them to process the information that the package is missing. I spoke to the sender the day before yesterday, so it will take some time for something to happen.

@@Hagyview how long ago did u buy it?

@@SteelAddicted Around November 12. It was strange that the package hadn't moved since then, so I wrote to the seller. I don't think it's their fault, I just feel bad that I have to wait for the next Drop.

I told u it's crazy how nice it is right. I was blown away and still kinda am. I've tried to get my daughter to sell me her blue ano nature grip cuz it's as good as mine, but she want part with it lol. Apex should get the knives I sent Tom I hope I dont eat my words about the hrc but I swear it's on par with my kizers in 154 imo.

@@FerretChloride I meant to tell u to I wrote a comment telling people about ur Rosie fosie video in my fosie review video I hope u didn’t mind. U will have to tell me how the new ones feel compared to the blue ano. U got lucky to snag one of those I thought they had been sold out for a min. I honestly don’t see how the real one could be much better. But maybe I’m just wanting to think that.

@@SteelAddicted lol good luck getting that one back 🤣 it’s so smooth. Love the way it feels in hand. but if it’s really 60 HRC I’ll be seriously impressed. I’ve been beating on the Fosie for the last week and it’s still gliding like a champ. Then about ten passes on the strop and it’s good as new. And thanks for spreading the word! That means a lot! That’s my first time trying to talk on camera so there’s gonna be a learning curve lol. But yeah dude I can tell you it’s gonna be wayy too damn close in quality for that 1000$ price tag difference. Like I’m looking for sweet looking knives that I can actually use without feeling like I’ve just destroyed a huge investment. These fill that gap quite nicely

@@FerretChloride I agree completely it’s the main reason I end up carrying the spk so much or the Rosie or mcnees clone I love my divos and deville but one drop on the concrete and I might shed a tear or 2. All 3 of those clones equal one of the divos lol. U should try the mcnees it’s super nice as well. I’m really eyeing that spartan harsey plague doctor it looks so good and the action looks to be as good as the spk from the videos I’ve seen on Reddit. U think the hrc will be at least 58-59? that’s my guess. I saw on Reddit where a guy said he tested his fosie and it was a 58.8 but u know how that goes people love to blow smoke.

@@FerretChloride and no problem about spreading the word I felt like it was odd that I couldn’t find any videos about these clones on UA-cam especially after seeing how good they r made. Or at least the jufule lemifshe and green thorns from what I’ve handled and I only took the chance on them after reading Reddit glad I did. Also I meant to say I liked ur Rosie video a lot I thought u did a really good job. I think u should make more I enjoy hearing other people’s opinions about a knife. I don’t really want to see specs or any of that I just want to hear what u think about the knife u know lol.

@@andrewmcbride88 this one has a lighter detent than my blue ano one with the nature grip pattern still a nice knife. It seems his early releases had a soft detent as this one was from his first batch like 6 months ago.

@SteelAddicted yeai seen your other comments. Hope mines OK. Have you tried bending the lock bar in a bit?

@ yeah I was able to on the nature miles but not so successful on the stonewash version I’m about to load a video about the spk

Thanks I really wish it had a better detent.

@@EDC_DRE this one is the version 1 so from his first batch. It has a weaker detent and the plunge wasn’t as good on this first run one. I still enjoy it but it’s def a light detent

I should have said I bought this one like 6 months ago. If u r to buy one I’d go for the newest version he has the nature grip in grey or the all grey with grey hardware and clip. That way u know it’s from the latest batch and the detent and plunge should be good

@ I ordered that one waiting on it currently from what you let me know in your other vid 🙌🏻

@ which one this one? The same one in the video

@@EDC_DREI just checked I guess he made more of this version as well cuz now it’s listed with the other 2 newer ones and the blue ano which is out of stock so I’d assume any version u ordered would be the new run either way I like this one to it’s just not as snappy as my blue nature grip.

Lol yeah I'll try to remember it should be within about 2 weeks I've been checking in with him he told me 1st or 2nd week of January. I think he's making a skeltonized version and more like these 2. I hope he has more than 400 this go round as he will sell as many as he can make I imagine.

@@jdisdetermined yeah this is not as smooth as the real FerretChloride made a video comparing both of them the fake vs the real and that was his biggest take away was how smooth the real is
