@Dariel Kenneth it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my account :D
@Shane Azariah Happy to help :D
AD15 all the way. AD10 pocket clip looks super huge and I like the unique lock on the 15
Have you handled the 15? I just got both delivered and i totally agree about working against yourself to open it. Closing it is a chore, it's just not as fun as i thought it would be
AD10 for me - A BEAST man... Good stuff LTK
The 10 is really becoming the universal favorite of the 2. For all the reasons you mentioned. The only thing I hear anyone complaining about on the 10 is that clip. I like both. Each has its strengths. I would suppose the biggest reason I also like the 15 is just the really different design. Neither is easy to take apart in fact 10 may be harder due to all the pins. I don't get the box on 15 showing colors that the knife doesn't come in. Intuitively the 10 wins uniqueness I think goes to the 15. Since I like big knives of course I like them.
Love the video man ! You answered all my questions bud. 🙏
Gotta have both of them! I already own the AD 15 custom made by Demko and I don't have the problem opening mine that you do. In fact it flips open with my thumb easily. I did however take it apart as soon as I bought it and cleaned it up. Mine drops shut and I can swing it open and closed like an axis lock.
AD10 with the blade profile of the AD15.
I thought you would love the AD15. I think you gonna have the same problem with CRKT Seismic when closing. The execution on the AD10 looks fantastic. I mean I am hardcore Tri-Ad fan and I dont mind how stiff it is close but the AD10 looks super smooth. I saw a guy in another video middle finger flicking it. Its very well executed.
This review is very helpful. Thanks!
Got an AD-10 few days ago. Feels great in hand. The look of the 15 doesn’t appeal to me.
THE 10 !!!
Got the AD10 a few days ago and I am loving it. Hate the pocket clip but loosened the spring tension and I can live with it... Everything else is perfect, best ergos of any folder I have handled, best action of any triad lock I've handled and just overall extremely impressive for the money. Makes me consider getting a custom AD10.
Love your videos buddy! You have a new subscriber!
Really nice knifes review.
Both these knives are so beautiful I'm a have to go with the AD-15 I'm ordering one getting the green color and I'm a dye the scales black.
I have the AD-10 since about a week, and ordered the AD-15 yesterday, because it looks really great also
I just got in the AD-15, haven't done the unboxing yet. Also the Kuby Tityus just arrived last Wednesday...haven't done the unboxing of it either.
Both Great Knives,all depends on your own personal choice!!!!
I like the Scorpion lock as long as your hand is holding the knife it’s impossible for the lock to fail
Fun review...
From the vantage point of the camera lens we see 1-3/8" tall on the AD-10 vs 1-1/4" on the AD-15.
I got both..I like the 10 better..its a beast..the 15 is cool but kinda awkward an the grip is the most aggressive I've ever felt in a pocket knife..definitely a jeans shredder
Try opening it like a pm2 sort of, i had the same issue, mine is more broken in now, and the pull up and sort of wrist it out is better, although it can sort of over travel but still lock in.
The AD10 is great for when you’re stepping out and don’t feel like fussing with a fixed blade/belt set up and need to be in and out of a vehicle, but don’t want to have to adjust a sheath etc...but at the same time need something heavy duty you can trust to cut, pry, and stab. Clip in and go.
I’ll pass on the 15, though I admire the ingenuity of the lock.
Chose the AD15 last night because already have the 4 Max Scout (which is also awesome) and not getting the AD20 yet.
I put some original goat ti scales on my ad15 and I love it
Honestly deep carry drives me nuts. I want to access my knife easily and positively. Not fart around digging for it so sheeple can't see it. I couldn't care less what people think about me carrying a knife and if I did id put it in my waistband
Как раз выбираю между этими двумя позициями. Не нашел сравнения на русском языке. Но включив этот ролик с удовольствием его посмотрел. Конечно же не понял многого, т.к не очень силен в английском, но голос и харизма этого чувака, сделали свое дело. 👍😎
First off this was two years ago it’s 3/8/21 watching this . I have the AD10
Really wanted to get the 15 too , kind of like don’t really want it anymore . Another words thanks I hear where you’re coming from it is personal preference. Think I can live without it.
I had the same thought about the AD15 box... Such a small box for such a chonky knife
The price is good enough to get all 3.
$40. AD-15 lite
$109. AD-10
$80. 4Max Scout
All 3 are really great knives
I got bit by my AD10, i find if i stick my index finger all the way to the front of that front finger notch, i can get that choil to land on my fingernail with no harm, then i can pull my finger out, give the knife a nudge, and itl drop closed
what happens if tou squeeze ad10 really hard - does that compromise the lock?
I think we can all say that we're happier than a camel on hump day whenever you release a killer video like this. I do I have say I'd go for the AD10 all the way. Solely because it's different. Great video!
AD10 all the way
I think the general feel within the community is a preference for the AD10 for the reasons you have stated. The AD15 is still a cool knife with some unique features. Both are solid offerings by Cold Steel. Good review LTK!
Thinking about my first cold steel. I know they are out of stock but I am willing to wait. Anyway, should I go with the AD-10 (new when they restock) or the 4Max on the secondary market at about $250?
AD10. They are in stock on knife center
AD10 all day.
hello my friend i have question x you , do you know if the AD10 hollow ground is discontinued now , i just see on most knife web site they stock the Flat ground now , i ask you been in the USA may have better news , kind regards
VITO LAGINESTRA I don’t know. Maybe you should contact a USA retail store or contact Cold Steel. Thanks
Just got a hollow grind version from klingenreich.de.

I'll stick with my Code 4 XHP Clip point!
I like both. Got an AD10 on the way so I can beat the holy sh** out of it. On a large knife I don't care about the pocket clip. I carry large knives just for the WTF looks
The AD15 for sure isnt as fun to play with as i hoped, it could loosen up more. I have developed more skill and hand strength to close the knife easier. But opening is tough on the thumb. Its for using, not playing with. I like the AD10 but concerned a bit about the hollow grind
Hal Cooper I had the same issue with stiff opening. 2 things you can do to improve it. First is adjust the pivot an 1/8 of a turn, HUGE difference, make sure to do,the adjustment with the blade in the open position. Secondly leave the knife half open when you’re storing it for like a week and it will help loosen the spring tension....
@@Damen0530 thanks, i will try it and see if it helps
Yesss , Cold Steel Baby !! I have both , they're both F**kin Awesome , and for the money , just buy both , its definitely the closest I'll ever come to a custom knife. The Scorpion lock is a little tricky at first , and it will bite you if your not careful , I caught the tip of my finger behind yoke and the blade came down and almost took the tip off my finger . But ounce it breaks in its awesome , I grab the top of the yoke at the corner and now the blade just drops like a PM2 , and my finger isn't near the cutting edge. Now the AD10 is just "butta smooth" out of the box , and the fit and finish is the Best I've ever seen from CS , and I own a lot of CS knives , the Ultimate Hunter was nice and smooth and the AD10 is twice that , and its a Beast without being a Beast , it definitely does not feel like 6.7 ounces . IF I only could have 1 , I would go AD10 , before having both in my hand I would have went Scorpion lock all the way because its different , but now that I have both , the thick , smooth Tri-AD lock and contoured g10 handles just does it for me , theirs nothing like feeling the safety of a Tri-AD lock in your hand . But , for the money , just by both ,you won't be disappointed.
Is the triad lock easier to close now. I had a code 4 I couldn’t close and when the blade fell bam cut my pointer finger really bad. Thanks
Thomas Osteen The lock on my AD10 is definitely easier than it was on my 4Max. But I got the Italian 4Max and it’s much better than the American made one. I got my finger cut badly on my 4Max as well.
If you keep your index finger in the top finger groove when you release the code 4 loco, it drops, but doesn't cut or finger. The unsharpened part hits your finger instead!
I think that the AD-10 locked become a true knife. The AD-15 drive me to a reasonable doubt, especially by the barrette that clinch the blade when it is open.
Prefer the AD10, not keen on that scorpion lock at all.
Now if we can just get Demko to let Cold Steel make the AD20 ;)
Scorpion Lock. A puzzling solution to a non-existent problem.
nice comparison ltk.....looks familair lol. least ya broke in the triade lock 😂. i was amazed how smooth it was also.
I really like the AD-10, but, that AD-15 is a total no-go for me. I don't like the look of it, plus, I know I would never get used to that lock, and, I'd never be able to trust it enough to carry and use it in EDC. The AD-15 just looks ugly to me. The blade profile is good, though. I really like that.
Mike Uman the lock is super easy once you get used to it, and it locks up very tight. I bought it mainly because it’s such a departure from everything else out there...ymmv
I used to go by Mike it's my name in English lol
i wan da 10 right now
They should have called the ad10 the mini max!
Too bad that back bar is aluminum, otherwise nice looking knife.
Build quality is better on the ad 15. Also has a slimmer profile also lighter. Better clip better asthethics better grind for hard use. Sorry but ad 15 is better.
Ad-15 Out of stock on white mountain of course. Lol. LTK wanna sell yours? Same user name on IG or message me if interested. Either way love your videos keep up the great work.
Steve Milk They were on loan. I’m in line waiting to buy one myself. Lol
LuvThemKnives missed that part. Lol welcome to the waiting game ha ha. Thanks for the reply and keep up the awesome work. Love your channel.
Also Nick Shabezz prefers the ad 15. He is a true knife Guru.
They're..both..hollow grinds..? or the 15 is flat? 15 for me then. I can't see the point of having a very big, hefty, sturdy knife and have it hollow ground. As if the blade wasn't wide enough to grind nice flat bevels. I mean, the AD10 has the stronger build, but it has the weakest blades of the 2...a high hollow which makes the presence of the Tri-Ad Lock very questionable.
The clip on the AD15 is better and can be right or left (but the very tractile G10 can be an annoyance for sure).
The AD15 is lighter for the same mensuration.
It's objective but I think the blade on the AD15 being a bit less belly and a bit more pointy is also better for general usage
The AD15 is a better designed knife all around (and is only 10 bucks more) . Plus the lock is fresh and would make a cool new toy ;)
ps: doesn't look like the passtrough hole is meant to reinforce the lock (ala extrema ratio RAO) at all from what I can see here, as it doesn't contact the blade in any way long after the lock would have failed
The 10 is hollow but its is VERY mild... I usually dislike hollow grinds but I don't mind it on this one at all. As for the rest of what you said sorry but TL:DR.
10 is hollow As for the rest of what you said sorry but TL:DR.
TheOneAndOnlySame hollow grinds cut better, but the new ad10’s are flat ground.
you may love dem knives...but its obvious talking hands, playing, didn't do his homework before turning on the camera and fiddling with these. Wow, there's just too many talking, fidgety hands, with knives channels! Want the real scoop people just watch Cold Steel's videos.
What a ridiculous review. Waste of time.
