    Jason seems like such a modest, down to earth dude. Part of why I collect certain knives is because of respect for the brand and maker and I definitely have respect for him.
    Keep on cruising up, Jason.

    I'm so glad Jason is into bio-mechanical art. I definitely appreciate his knives for that reason and I am very proud to have one of his knives in my collection. Thank you for your passion and inspirational work, Jason.

    Just bought the Brous Blades Virtue and I use it everyday at work. Cannot say enough good things about it but I'm glad to have another one of his knives in my collection.

    Brous blades rock! I have a bionic first gen as one of my favorite EDC. Got the multi tool last year and another this year at blade show. Keep up the amazing work you do!

    I love Brous Blades. My brother must have gotten all of his starting knives like the. Division, Reloader, T4. Silent Soldier. And the Ti Silent Soldier. He eventually sold them all but that started my knife collecting hobby. I love Jason's work. Awesome looking designs and very reasonable prices for American Made Knives. Keep it up dude. I hope for great things.

      BROUSBLADES Jason, I just want to let you know that your knives are the most beautiful of any on the market to me. You are an artist whose purity of vision is obvious. As art is ever in the eye of the beholder, and tearing down is exponentially easier than the building of anything, never give audience to the nay sayers. Congratulations on all of your successes--and especially on being able to maintain your focus upon that which matters most, your wife and child. We pray for your continuing personal, business, and family success. And I look forward to assembling a collection of your work. Truly, best regards.

    Since I saw and owned your silent soldier flipper I’ve been a fan. Just bought the xl framelock and need to “recollect” the original models.. triple threat was a beast. I do however prefer your older designs man that ssf is one of the most beautiful knives I’ve ever seen or owned

  • @7darkstorm
    @7darkstorm 8 років тому

    Just keep doing your thing Jason.. I love unique blades not a fan of same old same old too boring like so many out there. Your knives are unique but yet functional as well not everyone can bring the two together and make it work . Recently bought your new vendetta wicked , Thanks for the great knives !

  • @Spitsz01
    @Spitsz01 8 років тому

    Just bought the Raven online (I live in Holland, the Netherlands), because I'm a fan of Syd Mead and thought this knife should have been in "Blade Runner" somehow. Can't wait to feel it!
    Syd Mead is a brilliant futurist designer, maybe check him out?
    Keep up the beautiful work and stay gold man!

    I have A Reloader, a Mini division, a Bionic 2.0, a SS Ranger and a VR-71. No one has better "bang for the buck" knives than Jason does. The mini division and VR-71 flip as good as the Todd Begg Bodega I payed $1500 for. Also, Jason stands 100% behind his work.

  • @TheStabbyCyclist
    @TheStabbyCyclist 9 років тому

    I really appreciate the work Jason has done, and Keena gives top notch customer service as well.
    I've owned three Brous knives, one of the first Division flippers, a limited run full titanium framelock SSF, and the recent titanium framelock SSF XL. Three excellent knives. However, I sold all of them. There are just too many similar, high quality folding knives that are hundreds of dollars less expensive. I know their operation is relatively small but the knife market is flooded with midtechs these days and, I'm sorry Jason, but there is no way in hell that your recent SSF XL is worth nearly $200 more than a George Talos or a Southard Avo.
    On the upside, Jason definitely has a niche pinned down with his H.R. Giger influenced styling, so he's got that going for him. My recommendation would be to keep that unique style, but try to expand into some different blade steels (maybe S35VN, CPM154, or CTS-XHP) and for the love of God try to bring those midtech prices down.

      @howabouthetruth2157 8 років тому

      +Maxwell Super (Atomedge Sharpening) I was thinking the same thing. Seems like a nice hard working young man, but "bio-mechanical" art was popularized by H.R. Giger, and I don't care what anyone says to defend it, by saying "It's only art"..........it is purely demonic.......and that's ALL it is.........demonic. It blows my mind how so many people are atheist or agnostic, yet they defend and embrace all this demonic stuff. If only they realized what it truly represents. They are fooled & tricked into believing it's all harmless and even fun.

    Why don’t knife makers keep the knives that are actually sought after in stock. The Ranger V2 hasn’t been available for too long. Instead that make knives nobody really wants or can afford. Love his stuff but cmon.

      PkwyDrive13 Yes I do, I have had several of my friends buy one of the Bionic''s (1.0 and 2.0) and had nothing but problems with them, most of us buy knives via the Internet and reputation is everything.. At up to $200 there not what I would call inexpensive knives and people work hard for the money, to spend on a knife... !!

    • @TheStabbyCyclist
      @TheStabbyCyclist 9 років тому +12

      Ben Gonzales No.
      If anything, maybe the next Tony Marfione. Which is approximately 70% a complement, and 30% an insult.

    • @danzigrulze5211
      @danzigrulze5211 9 років тому

      Ben Gonzales With the bulky ugly designs he has been making, nope not a chance in hell. His prices are grossly inflated, knifes are too big, bulky, and his designs aren't really special. Sure he might use top grade materials but as for the knives themselves aren't very appealing.

    • @shagnasty4740

    • @Keen_Edge
      @Keen_Edge 7 років тому +1

      SonOfAHerbert no, he's not doing any innovating like Chris reeve did. He's just taking other people's designs and badgering when they figure out what he's done.

  • @joeygonzo
    @joeygonzo 5 років тому +2

    He went Chinese. And heavy black friday discounts. Killed the resale value of his knives. I'll never buy one again.

    @danzigrulze5211 9 років тому

    Knives look like cheap Chinese knock off designs, I don't care for Brous Blades, sure he might be a great person but sorry I'm not going to buy any of his over priced production knives. Then again, some people like his designs, but tell me this, where is the innovation of design? He isn't bringing anything new to the table that we haven't seen already and lots of these weird designs, see Quartermaster, are just plain ugly.
