Wow! Amazing fixed blade review. Thank you for all your hard work and for passing on your experience and knowledge. A+++
Very glad to have an appreciative audience Ryan! 🗡️♥️🗡️🔥
Not enough people review fixed blades. I'm glad you do these videos
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching! 🗡️🔥👍
I agree. I’ve been finding more interest in fixed blades the past couple of years.
Bastinelli Chopper, T.Kell Hawk, and the Compliance Edge DCK are definitely the top 3.
This is awesome really!
Thank you for this channel and what a Channel it is! This motivates me with my small collection.
Thanks❤✌🏻
Glad you enjoy it! 🙏🔥🗡️
Absolutely killer blades Dave!! I like the Dirk Pinkeeton, TKell&the Williams blade the most outta all of em but they are all killer!!
Very nice selection of knives.
Thanks for watching! 👍
Wow nice collection! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Awesome knives👍I own the Bastinelli Chopper and the Microtech Socom Alpha Mini Warcom but full serrated.
Great choices! 🗡️👊🗡️
AWESOME review ! Those are all really great blades , and my favorite size for my EDC and knife tasks! This is a great video. My favorite 2 knives are my Winkler Crusher Belt knife with rubber handles, and my Skallywag Tactical and TOOR knives collaboration called the MUTINY and it is the perfect blade for me I love it!
Have a great day and keep up the great videos and information
Thanks so much for watching and your likes! Have to get a Winkler one of these days! 🗡️👍🔥
Super Slicey Selection! Thanks for sharing! Please sir can we have some more!
More to come! 🗡️👊🔥
I have a Striker from TKell and it's pretty awesome, it has a small handle but the ergos on it are great
Good to know! 🗡️👊
Honored to make your top 10! Thank you!
It's hard to pick the best one of yours, Dirk! Thanks for watching... 🙏🗡️👊
Wow there happened so much with selfdefence nives
MKM TPF Pocket Fixed Blade or VIPER Handy (when released) is going to be my next EDC fixed blade.... check them out!
Thanks I think I got the Viper in the collection somewhere....
They all look pretty cool but I will stick to my cold steel counter tac 2 and safe maker 1 and 2 push daggers due to their easy concealment and a great hand guard. Don't get me wrong, these looks awesome but imo some of them lack in safe hand guard and the blade tips do not look as robust as the ones on the knives I mentioned. Maybe it's because I carry them mainly for self defense purposes and the knives you show us can be used in a variety of diffrent ways. For diffrent purposes I carry civivi chavalier or victorinox alox bantam. Greetings from Poland, great content.
I can't edit the comment for some reason so Ill ad it here: My favourite one is the DCK what a handle! Btw I suppose these high value knives companies should put stainless steel on more often as from a guy who carry knives a lot It's much easier to catch a corrosion with a high carbon steel blades when carrying it on a hot day close to body. Of course you can put an oil on the edge etc. but at the end of the day a more softer steel is less likely to snap the tip off which is more important to me than holding an edge for 2years of continouous usage.
We certainly all have different needs and knives to meet them, as well as different backgrounds, so sounds like you have a good setup. 🗡️👊🔥
… I’m felling a little bit aroused right now looking at that table, not gonna lie, hahaha.
All great but that Williams, those damn bastinellis, the beautiful Compliance Edge and the tsukamaki wraped-one (forgot the name), are all I need right now.
Thanks for watching! Tsukamaki wrapped blade is by Aaron Bieber, AB Knives. ♥️🗡️🔥
@@OGBladeReviews thank you for showing us this great selection!
AB Knives, got it, man.
Thanks!
What is your favorite TKell knife for self defence, and which one you prefer instead as a genral EDC? I'm trying not to buy them all at the moment haha
For strictly SD, take a look at either the MR-1, or the Nightshade in reverse tanto version with the tri-edges
@@OGBladeReviews thanks for the heads up, I do have the night shade on his way already but I was thinking about also getting something a little bit meaner just in case them there cardboard boxes get a little bit too aggressive with me...
If you're looking for a slightly larger blade from T.KELL, definitely check out the Ops-Hawk! Did a review not long ago....
@@OGBladeReviews that's a sweet one for sure, and yes I did check out your review. Any reason you'd pick that over say a Guardian or a Nightguard? Maybe the grind on those is too specific for defense and not as versatile?
Just longer and more hand-filling, but may be too large for your carry preferences....
Sheath quality on high end knives is JUST starting to irk you?... It's been over 10 years, but at least TOPS has started to address this. Low quality sheaths coming with good knives grinds my gears too!
Did I say "just starting?" 🤔🗡️👍
@@OGBladeReviews yesir, I think it were those words, which is why I emphasized 'just'. But I was just jerking your chain about it, as this has been a thing for a while at least with certain companies as I'm sure you're aware because I'm pretty sure you were just using an expression.
No worries. Been tracking blades for fifty years, but am noticing that Bastinelli needs to bring sheaths up to the level of the blades ... 👊🗡️👊
I don't believe many of these self-defense knife designers have actually really thought about what really happens in a knife fight.
I personally know blades smaller then 3in are worthless in cold weather.
One great point is the sheath needs to be able to be carried many different ways. Depending on weather clothes and most importantly comfort.
Also a point many don't understand if we are forced to use a knife. We want to be able to justify our actions.
That said stabbing repeatedly is hard to defend in court.
A slash to a tendon to stop from being hit. Is a easier case to make
Many of these designers seem to take inspiration from Hollywood.
I personally carry a coldsteel vaquero xl. Anyone can say stuff about lynn Thompson but they must admit he is a martial artist. On one video he explains why he still carries a vaquero xl. Serrated.
Don't get me wrong any knife beats a blank but these overpriced Hollywood art just aren't realistic for walking through Baltimore city.
My opinion but in my favor ive over 10 years of FMA and many years of other martial arts. An more then 30 years living in inner cities.
Thanks for your comment. For most, the use of a bladed tool in a last ditch, split second encounter remains entirely speculation. But choosing one size or method, I tend to side with the experience and philosophy of Mike Janich regarding a Wharnecliff style smaller blade for its ability to cut through layers to get to the target. If you can carry larger in your environment, then certainly go fore it!. The development of smaller fixed blades with higher price tags might be out of reach for many, but just as with any other tool some are willing to pay a price for quality, even if it's only their perception and not a reality necessity. 👍🗡️👊 For reference, my own FMA experience goes back to the mid-1980s under several noted instructors, including Dan Inosanto.
@@OGBladeReviews I trained in Florida under Tuhon Ray Dionaldo and his people. Then in Maryland with Apolo landra.
The thing about that wharnecliff blades. When we were trying different things jackets with met and pool noodle. Many tries didn't cut anything. It really kinda was a eye opener. I might have to make a video about it. We couldn't film our training because 2 of the guys were under cover. Not sure what they are always very tight lipped about work.
Anyway changed my mind about small blades. In summer time probably fine.
Yes, as FMA teaches, small blades are for point work, swords are for edges. Have you connected with any of the Ed Calderon (Libre) people who practice on actual meat targets (hogs) and layers of clothing? They seem to have a clear mission for using small blades and backed by Ed's years of real experience as DEA and cartels.....
