I've reviewed the Duk and Dukling they were both amazing imo, I said they were like a 2021 style sebenza
So much yes, my next video on it is largely making that point 🤣
Was gonna say all that stuff about the Sebenza 😂
That arius!!! Wow. Love it
Great knives great video
Nice scores dude. The zirc is a nice touch. My buddy scored a Rosie for me. talk about a real good homie. speaking of proxy lol
That DUK looks like what a Sebenza should be
Agreed 🤘🏻
Gotta disagree with ya on this one. I think the sebenza is exactly what a sebenza should be.😂🤷♂️ The sebenza looks more classic and like a "basic knife" than the DUK, which is what it is trying to be. All the function of what a great knife should have and nothing extra. DUK seems more delicate than a sebenza (at least the blade shape/geometry), in which the name meaning "work" wouldn't really fit.
@@tristandauod I just think that the Sebenza has not evolved. The XM-18 went from teflon washers to the Triway pivot system. To each their own but if they ever made the Sebenza more "fidgety" this is what I think it might become.
It’s what new knife guys think the Seb is
Killer score!
2 really nice knives. The black out arius looks awesome. Congratulations on adding them to the collection!
Thanks for playing matchmaker! ❤️❤️❤️
Dude I’m so glad it worked out!
The new wallpaper is trippy 🥴
Yeah it is 🤣🤣
I went Eutsler then Oz to start, scored both. Also hit a lotto for Merriken. Nice trio for me.
Congrats. That was my exact plan. I got to the Eutsler table at 11: 03 and the 11am FCFS knives were already gone. OZ line was already halfway to the door. Koenig was my third (only because I already have three and a fourth in the works) and that line was already massive. "No plan survives first contact" and, being my first show, I was definitely overwhelmed... in good way tho. Were you the fellow with the blue Merriken?
@@TheStabbyCyclist yep 👍🏼
Congrats on both knives. Your DUK is the configuration I’m looking for too. Enjoy it and keep up the great work. Looking forward to the avant.
DLC Arius just posted on Bladeforum for $1525😂😂😂
Congrats! Great Scores!
Table price on a DUK is always a steal and that is a great one! That murdered out Arius is fantastic as well! These are easily 2 of my favorite pieces in my collection. Style 57 Arius and green micarta bolster lock DUK.
I saw you there. I was in the longest line waiting for Oz machine. I scored #391 Roosevelt
Congrats! Welcome to the club! 🙌🏻
No one does dlc like rockstead still in my opinion
You are so happy with your new knives you made me 😊
Epic haul dude. Happy you got that arius especially. Love the strategy for the Eutsler. Only thing is I’m amazed ppl ask you to proxy at all. Pretty personal thing to ask. Love that you explained it, even though no one should expect you to explain yourself. Now go scratch that Arius up!
I held that exact knife at CCKS. It’s a
Beauty!!!
I saw you was gonna say hi, but you were busy talking to someone.
Ah bummer! Next time just interrupt haha, I wouldn’t have minded!
I always wanted a blacked out Arius. That blade exceeds my expectations. Wow.
Ditto🗣💯‼️
Good story Jake. What is the Oz. Roosevelt table price? Secondary?
Roosevelts started around $600 table, and on secondary they tend to be at least double for now.
@@beardedgear 10-4
I light coat of oil will darken that DLC up really nice..
I was thinking it looked like a sebenza as soon as you opened it. Nice scores for sure 🔥
Really? I own my share of inkosi and Sebenza's and don't see it...at all!
What a great looking knife though...dig it.
I was wondering why everyone keeps comparing this to a sebenza...
Killer purchases. That DLC is beautiful.
You can start a proxy service where you charge $300 lol. Little side hustle for more customs
I have no interest in doing that lol
Only 1,044.00, huh.....
Sick scoops on the murdered out arius , that knife is the buisness
Saw you there but you were talking to a vendor so didn't want to interrupt, I came so close to purchasing the Shirogorov Quantum from Recon1 but didn't :( Now the shame of leaving empty handed is settling in LOL. I'm getting a Flytanium Talisong Z balisong this Thursday and a BRS Latch-less Alpha beast dropping relatively soon so needed to save for those. That Quantum will be purchased at some point though, it is somethin! This knife addiction is whooping my bank accounts ass.
Haha it’ll do that. And you totally should have said hi!
That Arius is seriously beautiful, but I have to say, granted I haven’t handled an Arius yet, I think the Avant is a better knife for me, and I’m so happy to have one coming.
Damn, I’ve been hunting a DUK forever (pun not intended) but all the configs I’ve been into have gone instantly on the FB group. And I’m so jealous of that DLC Arius too, I wanted to get in on the auction too but I can’t compete with 10 grand.
Yeah that auction was absolutely wild haha
@@beardedgearStill not even close to the craziest one, I don’t even look at the Shiro auctions but from what I hear in the group $10K is less than half what they go for.
Also afaik Kody hasn’t made any DUKs in cpm-154 in a while (think he just had a backlog of waterjet blanks) and those are exclusively in 20cv and damascus now. I think all the show DUKlings were CPM-154 though.
🔥🔥🔥
$1000? Don't they retail for around $600 or less
How is the Arius considered a “custom” when it’s completely machine ground and finished?
I don’t consider the Arius a custom, they do make some that get hand work and are considered customs, but their knives are what I would categorize as small batch production, or boutique production.
Aww. . .c'mon man, you wouldn't proxy for me? Out of the 8.7k of us that follow you if only 10% of us asked you that would only be 870 that you would need to proxy for. That's easy bro
Both of those knives are garbage
I think we have completely different understandings of the word garbage.
Is that Greg Medford?!?!?!
Knifecritiques, is that you?
i got there at 11:30 - koenig was raffle only and the #ozmachinecompany line went to the entrance. congrats on rare duk and arius pickups! 👍
