    GP035 Samior is my EDC. I love this knife. Incredibly light and razor sharp.

      Is it possible to get a replacement screw that holds the belt clip on? Mine fell off and disappeared, otherwise still love the knife and carry it every day 👍

    Well done comparison - agree with your conclusion.
    Never heard the clip referred to as a "belt" clip.

      Hey both of ya, the clip doesn't care what it is clipped to : >
      You can also clip it inside, or outside of your wasteband, or onto your shirt, or belt loop. The clip doesn't care. 😊
      You can even clip it inside of your sock!

      I remember, some years ago, there was a TV shopping channel for knives that always called it a "belt,boot, or pocket clip". Each host said it so often about each item that the words came out in rapid fire succession sounding like one five syllable word.

    I think I like the Samior better for breast pocket carry. It's clip and butt-end will easily pass as a pen at a glance whereas the CRKT advertises that it is a knife on the clip

    Could you comment on the fact that the CEO appears to have a thicker blade? You state blade thickness is the same. I’m wondering if you feel the thin blade is likely to break.

    M390 doesn’t compare to low end Chinese steel. I was about to buy a ceo but looked at the steel. Good thing I stopped and looked at my options! I just needed something cheaper to use everyday, rather than microtechs and such lol

    • @jeffhicks8428
      @jeffhicks8428 Рік тому +1

      Steel is so much less relevant than most knife bros think. the issue is its used as a marketing gimmick by companies like spiderco. Steel choice does matter. Aand in an edc knife you do generally want a decent amount of wear resistance if you can get it most of the time, especially in a smaller lighter use knife.. but, it doesn't matter nearly as much most think it does. Its not the first thing you should be concerned about at all. Aand most steels aren't THAT much different for a given use. Like the difference between aus8 and m390 is a decent difference, some users will notice it for sure, but the difference between aus8 or say 440c, not so much. At that level it literally don't matter.

    Yes, but if you were attacked by a wolf or a bear, could you stab them in the carotid with this? Is it strong enough and long to penetrate? I'm searching to buy the lightest thinnest knife possible for trail running. A friend of mine was attacked by a bear on a run and somehow a pistol did not stop the bear but a knife to the neck did the job in less than a minute.

    • @johnnydoe66
      @johnnydoe66 Рік тому

      I would think a neck knife would be a better option if quick defense is what you're looking for. The CEO or similar are gentleman's knives and not really built for self-defense, but would work in a pinch. Any knife is better than no knife.
      I always carry some type of fixed blade when in the woods where I have quick access for that possible scenario you mentioned; bear, cougar, or any large predator. Sorry for rambling.

      They’re designed for “gentlemen” aka people who work indoors at office spaces all day. Of course they won’t hold up to the abuse that knives made for carpentry or survival can handle, they’re made to cut tags off of clothes and open packages,

      @ceedub619cameraman3 correct, both my phone and this tablet are made in Vietnam, profits to Korea. Worth noting that iPhones are now made in India, though given their support for Russia through fuel purchases that's not much better. I only buy Chinese goods of any type as an absolute last resort.
