    The best part for me is air travel is a no brainer. Remove the blade before going in the plane. Pick up readily available blades at your destination.

      That’s an excellent point! I did find that workpro blades work best. 👍

    Fantastic knife: drop shut action, perfect centering, no blade play. I am tempted to buy at least one more and keep it in reserve.

    Appreciate the review. The points you presented was enough to steer me towards purchasing multiples. Some already given as gifts.
    I'm a novice to folding knives. Surprised by your demonstration on how quickly the blade could be deployed with that thumbscrew. Nearly mastered that technique now. Many thanx!

    Probably made at the same factory in China that makes fake Bugouts...but it's the best design for a utility knife blade out there. Gotta recognize that. Ordered.

    • @projectpinehills

      It is a great design, thanks for the feedback. They have another flat slider utility knife I want to try as well. 👍

      Definitely not, it's most likely manufactured bi Kizer knives like the other OKnife. Benchmades patent expired on the axis lock, that's why lots of Knife manufacturers are coming out with "axis" lock knives

    Mine has a faulty blade locking thing?? I flicked out the blade to use it once, and it shot out, and almost damaged my equipment, and very easily could have seriously harmed someone. I've since switched back to my daily driver... But I agree with you on all the points about the quality besides that. I miss it, actually. Quite a bit. Might just buy another one to see if it's better...

    • @projectpinehills
      @projectpinehills  2 місяці тому

      Got to ensure the set screw is secure. My U1 works better with workpro razor blades. Not sure if that’s the case with all U1 knives. Thanks for watching!

    Don't usually buy Chinese but olight really hit the ball out the park with this knife. Am not afraid of breaking the blade or letting someone borrow it that will dull the shit out ur knife. It's a great knife and well built. Got one for me and one for the wife.

    • @projectpinehills

    I have that ordered and I'm looking forward to it arriving even more after watching your video. One thing though about the paracord. Does it go through the hole on the clip? It looks like there's a lanyard hole on the backspacer in between the 2 scales.

    • @projectpinehills
      @projectpinehills  8 місяців тому +2

      I was wondering who would catch my mistake :) Yes it has a dedicated lanyard location. I think olight shows a picture of the lanyard attached on their website. It is a great knife. Thanks for posting and thanks for watching! 👍

    Lol. That's funny, you take off the pocket clips too; I do it as well: it's uncomfortable and changes the dimensions. Drop them right into my back pocket, I'm oldschool: I suppose.

    • @projectpinehills
      @projectpinehills  2 місяці тому +1

      The clip getting hooked on something while clipped on your pocket, that’s a good way to lose a knife… plus it scratches up a lot of stuff… no different than a belt buckle. Thanks for watching! 👍

    if people buy it massively then only for 2 major reasons they aren't aware of: dealer availability of a big brand OLIGHT, and very low price. it's easy then to talk oneself into liking it, even if it's not likable. not really hehe.
