I've found the choil to be perfect for wrapping my index around the blocky pivot area allowing me to really choke up on the blade with middle finger in finger groove. Don't need to jam my index all the way up in the choil but still somewhat inside the choil. If it wasn't cut out there the blades edge would be on my index finger in that choked up grip. Love the smock and the malibu!!! Great viedo bro!!!
Yeah I have a pr1 too and has zero lock stick. I thought the first runs had no lock stick but I could hear yours clicking in the video. Guess I got lucky with mine. I got pr1#351
Nice video.. did you polish the blade or is that how it came every malibu I've seen has stonewash for the blade. I noticed yours has stone wash on the spine tho which looks super dope 👌
Cracking video review. Refreshingly lucid with a style and perspective really enjoyed... New sub. As I type this, I am waiting for my Blue reverse tanto Malibu to arrive in the mail. I ordered it on Friday night (from Germany) and It's now Monday morning , so still a couple of days to go and I am watching every review there is on the internet about this knife, which has been out and impossible to get for over a year now. I live in the UK, so double hard to get. Only two more days to go now...I'm excited...very excited.
I am with you on the Fidget Factor, when it comes to my personal everyday carry folders that go to Work with me... I totally agree, Bro. Great Video. Knives that,make Great Fidget Knives, "ROCK!!!" :-) :-) :-) Peace, Stiletto :-)
Good review and nice mod job on the Smock. As of this post, I've got a MaliBlu Wharny arriving later this week. Do think the Wharny gives the knife a sleeker, more consistent silhouette, whereas the line of theTanto seems abrupt, interrupted.
I just hate the lock stick. I got a first production Malibu that has No Lock stick but they implemented some sort of lock stick as a safety feature on the newer models. I hate it. Still love the Malibu tho.
Modify the choil on the Smock and make it a semicircle like the original Smock custom. I did mine the second day I had it. Quite usable now for choking up. It should come that way from the factory. Check it out. ua-cam.com/video/UfUkNkRdi2o/v-deo.html

Jeremy Suggs this is a great point. That choil does have a few extra use cases. Thanks for watching!
PR=Production Run
nice video. Great voice as well.
I definitely learned a lot more than five things. Great video.
Snuggletummy glad to hear that! If I reached the bare minimum then we are winning.
PR1 = Production Run 1
Mister C thank you so much!

Absolutely awesome review. Love your delivery style and commentary - incredibly refreshing perspective and thoughtful analysis. Subd. Keep it up!
Wade G thank you wade! Take care!
Im patiently waiting for the blue tanto to come out. Instant classic.
When it drops you’ve got to give me a heads up! That’s exciting.
a full modded spidercrap vs the malibu?
