    I LOVE my Kershaw Livewire! I picked up a blue one with the stonewashed bayonet blade at my local knife store back in December and I have carried it almost exclusively ever since! The action is so much better than my Microtechs.

    G'day Aaron, great point on variety mate, I dont think these are good defence tools anyway, more about the fidget and cool factors I reckon. Back in the day we could get the odd auto here, (minus the spring), the one I particularly remember was like a "medieval dagger", far more interesting than something presented as a space age tactical weapon IMO.

    I have the Livewire w/drop point Magnacut and it really is a great OTF. I have only two complaints: 1) the pocket clip and 2) the grip of this doesn’t impart a lot of confidence. The handle is a bit too smooth for my taste. I may try the carbon fiber version. Other wise, I love this knife when compared to my other OTFs this one wins hands down.

  • @aaronhome27
    @aaronhome27 Місяць тому

    Giving an 8 for the pocket clip is extremely generous. I bought one, got the cf model, and don't carry it due to the clip. Don't know who designed that for Kershaw but it's so much of a pain that a lot of people who have bought it don't carry it as well. I'll carry it when I can find a replacement clip. Till then it sits in a drawer and I won't be buying more as I had planned too.

  • @bigpatt8372

  • @killough71010
    @killough71010 28 днів тому

    I agree, the clip sucks. Love the livewire, the easiest otf to actuate I've come across. Easier that my microtech Glycon, ultratech, and Hogue Compound. It's a joy to use, but the pocket clip sucks. Mine came so tight that i nearly pulled my pants down, trying to get it to clip to my pocket. I had to bend out the clip a tad to make it work.

  • @gdude7397
    @gdude7397 2 місяці тому +1

    I really struggled with choosing between the DE and Tanto blades. If they offered a Tanto serrated, that would have swayed me, but I went with the DE because that's the one blade that is only going to work with an OTF, double action knife. It would be insane to carry a single action OTF knife with DE blade, especially a sharp one - especially if you're on a blood thinner as I am. Do you care to explain the right application/ benefits of a Tanto blade?

    Yes pocket clip sucks. It lacks flexibility as well. My HK (Hogue) has the best clip ive used in a while, wide secure and easy to pocket in and out. The livewire clip i had to bend to where its off the body by a couple mm and it still hard to get on my Carhartts

      Very minimal. The livewire has less blade play than my 500$ microtech glycon. It's also much smoother and easier to actuate. The livewire is very impressive! I also like it better than my Hogue compound.

    Ok now, let's tell the truth and be honest. OTF is a waste of money. Fragile, complexity of many parts than can go wrong, must kept absolutely clean, cause the slightest dirt and dust will cause function problems, terrible for edc, and many more......and the most important? Prices are bad jokes. Useless for everything, but just to fidget the fire button on off while watching a movie, sitting on a comfortable couch.

    • @mikeh4711

      You must not have any experience with otf’s as many of your comments are incorrect. They are a huge help when you are working up high or in a tight space. I even dropped one in gardening soil clogging the opening, tapped it a few times to clear the dirt and worked fine.
