I appreciate your attention to detail Johnny.
Nice tips, thank you.
I avoided the clip problem by immediately removing it and throwing it in the trash, I absolutely hate pocket clips on knives. I now don’t have any problem getting this knife in and out of my pocket or the sheath I purchased for it. Plus that darn pocket clip is not digging into my hand.
im exactly pocket clip hater and this is really ugly one ..so i will do the same (thrash immediately hhh)
This is becoming one of my favorite Channels.....Great Info!
I have never, ever had a problem with the screws on an AD10. Never even considered any "countersink" or anything else. They are the easiest knives to disassemble and assemble. This guy just had a bad one or something.
I had purchased this earlier this year in late spring. Being left handed I swapped the pocket clip with no issues. I did keep the clip screws with the clip. I love the knife, it's a beast!
worthless video....
One of my top 5 knives. I did the preorder at knife center and got the hollow blade. The action out of the box was perfect.
I picked up an AD-10 just last week. The screw problem appears to have been corrected. I took the clip off, bent it like I wanted to, put it back on, and had no problem. What I will say, though, is that now, if you try to put those screws back in WITHOUT the clip, they won't snug down all the way. At least on mine. YMMV.
Previously I have heard of this brand but my brother recently bought a CS folder... amazing how solid these are built, even the lower end. I decided to buy a CS too... I think I will go with the AD-10..
You will enjoy the locking mechanism and the hand grip, its like a VISE grip, NO way to slip at all, regardless of whatever your doing:) Should mention the sheep dog XL, the locking mechanism is different, but this knife does get your attention n ANY situation.......it comes in three sizes!
Thanks mate. 💪
This was good info. Thanks, buddy.
Excellent eye for detail!
Great info! Mine is on it's way...
Thank you sir 👍 Just can't differentiate between the hollow grind and flat grind,too thin a line.
Thanks Johnny, I was bidding on a hollow grind, but forgot about it because I was working at that time and lost out on it. I'll just have to wait for another to come up for sale 😩
You should give us a close look at the screws. That would be great.
Bought one couple weeks ago, love it, solid
Great to hear!
I WANT AN AD10 SOOOOO BAD. With four kids I gotta make sure they get the Christmas they deserve, hoping the AD10 is still available next year! 🤞
You have your priorities in order my friend!
Good father.
I just bought the 4 Max Scout and it makes me smile. My next knife was gonna be the AD 10. But looking at the Ultimate Hunter below your AD 10, and what you just told us, I might have to do some more thinking. (And I hate thinking. Especially before I buy a knife. Ain't right.) 😁👍
Thanks for mentioning. Made the same experience. The screws are crap...
If you slide coins one at a time under the clip, stacking, you can precisely control the clip adjustment. Like three quarters is good usually for me.
Playing cards works too.
Good Stuff.. I just bought mine BEFORE i viewed this so I was worried.. but I seriously doubt Ill be taking mine apart anytime soon.. Cold Steel and Knife Center are both very reliable and I would contact them and possible send it back for REPL before I took it apart.. Still a very informative review!! Excited about gettig the AD-10
Good video bud!
I’m so glad I saw this 😅
i went for the buffed Edition, the 4MaxScout!
I bought an unit around a year ago and my verdict is that the difference between the original and the clone lies in a slightly lower quality in the clone's steel.
I recently bought an AD10 Lite and 4Max Scout. Cold Steels new owners have become greedy and second rate as far as quality control goes.
I've been buying Cold Steel products for over 25 years now and after I get a couple of knives I've been wanting from them I'm done with the greedy knife peddlers for good.
I hate buying anything from them to be honest but nobody else makes big folders like they do.
I'd love to see some other manufacturers start to make huge folders. I don't understand why none of them do. because there's definitely a market for them and it really doesn't cost a lot more in materials to make them.
Great video. Question. Where is it made?
Taiwan
Johnny, good video. You are very perfectionist. Anyway, it's an excellent product, right? Please if you had to choose between Recon 1 and AD-10 regardless of the price, which one would you choose?
Yes excellent product. Recon 1 for me.
@@JohnnyJuke
Thank you so much for everything
It’s hard to focus with so many things distracting the camera’s focus in the background 🌚
👍👍👍👍👍
I know this is an old video but I can't find the ones you mentioned about making the AD 10 smooth.

@JohnnyJuke Thanks for the reply however that link is for the tuff lite not the AD 10. Also you mentioned it could be done without taking the knife apart.
@@Staticjm35 I will take another look for that video. Cant remember the name, but I can do another video on it if I cant find it.
@JohnnyJuke Would be much appreciated. I sure can't find it searching UA-cam or Google. I have a new AD 10 and it's anything but smooth.
can you please show us how you put a "half stop" in that knife?
This knife doesn't have a half stop.
@@JohnnyJuke BUT CAN YOU PLEASE PUT ONE?
Does anybody else have an ad 10 that while closed the blade has some up and down play. Mine will rattle sometimes and sometimes it will be locked closed solid. Great video, liked and subscribed 👍
I'm afraid to do another video of the short comings of this knife. What you mentioned may be worth discussing on top of a few other elephants in the room.
Maybe when you have a chance you could measure the length of the screws? I’ll measure mine as well. I’m wondering if they have increased the length
I did a video of this issue when the knife first was released. Cold Steel may have seen the video and corrected the problem.
@@JohnnyJuke I just just measured mine and it’s a 6mm long T6. They look like a 2-56 1/4” button head.
Those things will make it a no go with me.
This clip gets no respect and I'm sick of it.
You need a beefy clip for a 7 oz knife.
I like the finish because it goes with the blade. If the clip was black it would blend w the handle.
And lastly. Loosen the clip very easily and wo damage by anchoring the top w l thumb and gently prying the bottom w narrow utensil.
My favorite weapon knife.
I just ordered this off of EBay for 120$. I hope it’s not a fake. I guess once I get it I will know
I might be late be if there's a little misprint on the word "Steel" or if the s35vn has a big "s" it's fake
Really no excuse for "Cold Steel" not putting different size screws to fix that issue. And you say "If" the lock is stiff? I've never had a Cold Steel that didn't have a stiff lock up. It's why I stay away from there stuff for the most part.
Glad I skipped on this
My least favorite CS in my collection.
