Showing off my newest purchase from Herman Knives

- Today's video is pure, unadulterated knife... uh... visual content, as we take a look at a few of my favorites from Herman Knives and Polish Custom Knives, and I show off my latest purchase: A Full Dress Sting.
We in the patreon are the best damn financial advisors around
As the "Best" Financial Advisor, I definitely support this statement.
Brother, I know you do it subtly. But the Batman mask absolutely cracks me up every time.
Never apologize for the BLESSINGS you’ve received through the efforts you’ve put your hand to. Beautiful knife! Well deserved! :-)
As a huge fan of Herman who recently purchased his first one (Ishtar), I visit the site regularly to see his newest creations. I wondered who bought that Sting. CONGRATS! It's a beautiful piece made by an incredibly talented craftsman.
Congrats! The “base model” Sting is much more my taste but I can certainly appreciate the full dress one for what it is. It’s great to see the iteration in his work. Hopefully he doesn’t Grimsmo the prices.
Agree! The base model is nice and understated. Just my own opinion but I think the other three are simply gaudy. Some people love that stuff but I prefer a knife that speaks much more softly.
I totally agree on the idea of supporting small makers and the like in the community. Thank you for doing so. Oh, and WOW.
Omg!!!! I'm in love....that is a beautiful piece!❤
Congrats Nick!!!!!! You got me into Hermans, so thank you! Happy that you were able to get such a beautiful piece!
Congrats Nick, truly a work of art. We all knew you'd eventually end up with a full dress knife, you just needed a little push to do so 😉
That's not just a knife...it's a work of art. It's why we do what we do.
I don't even want to think how many $$$ are sitting on Nick's table 🤑!! Herman has propelled knives to a whole new level of classic pieces of art - I had to pause several times just to stare at these beauties. You say you're gushing - gush away what else can you do when holding these knives. Well done & excellent vid.
Happy to see you so happy!
Nice! That will be perfect for your next camping trip...
Such beautiful knives. 😍😍
That's a beautiful knife Nick! Lil bit jealous 😆
These are some beautyfull knives sir...wauw.
That full dress one is almost sufficient to make me go back to work. And Nick. I'm glad your decided to Polish up your puns.
I think you made a great decision. I too am insane but Being able to afford nice things is a big part of why I go to work. Of course taking care of my family is super important but sometimes it’s nice to be able to treat myself to something absurd. I’ve been eyeballing some thing from Herman For a good while, there are a few knives in that price range that I’ve been eyeballing I haven’t been able to make a firm decision yet. Enjoy that 💎 and Thanks for making a video about it!
Wowza. That thing had my heartrate spiking! haha What a freakin gorgeous piece of artwork!
Congrats Nick, you HERMED it for sure !!!😎😎😎
Keep doing you Nick. I love your content.
Now that's a KNIFE and the blade 🔥
I love seeing fine workmanship like this. I have yet to ever handle a knife with Damascus or timascus components. I do appreciate being a fan of a particular maker - I just ordered my third Boos Blades... And I blame you for that! 😄
Gorgeous knife Nick!
Congrats. Nice purchase. I'll be heading in the PCK direction hopefully soon.
One day, I will have a Herman Full D. Great vid Nick, keep up the great work.
Polish it! This is an outstanding piece!
A beautiful work of art.
Don’t feel too bad Nick, after two years, I finally broke down and picked up a Chris Reeves knives large Sebenza 31 with natural micarta inlays!!! No regrets!!! 😂
Wow nice new pieces Nick, don’t listen to the haters. You deserve to enjoy things like this. Just recently found the channel about a month ago. Absolutely love your channel and the way you articulate your knife reviews. I almost can’t watch any other knife videos if they’re not you. Keep on doing your thing sir👍
Beautiful collection of Herman's! 😍💪🗡
This is one beautiful knife.
Congrats Nick. I was eyeballing this before I got my Sting last week.
You’re killing me here!!! Omg that is so beautiful :)
Wonderful!
Wery beautiful, and wery good knives. 😁👍👊 You see Barbershop Customs, and TD Custom Knives. 👊👍😁 Greetings from Poland. 👍😁👊
Unpopular opinion/reminder: Two of those Hermans will get you a Planet Ocean 👀
Sweet blades Man !
Congrats on the aquisition, Nick! Surely a gem! These knives kindof remids me of/looks like a Shirogorov and a Grimsmo made a blade-baby named Herman. Too rich for my blood but boy are they beautiful pieces!! Timascus and milling look gorgeous, and I especially like the shape of that wharncliffe blade.
Not really a gem. More, the Cullinan Diamond.
Wow that's beautiful. You deserve it. That's the type of knife that immediately has me going to the website to look for one.
I Think the core of damacore is chemically identical to Vanex , which makes a very nice steel indeed. Congrats on this pice of cutlery art 👊🏻
That knife is beautiful
Ugh, your videos about Herman convinced me that I "need" one, so a bronze Ishtar 82 is now on its way to me. Thanks for all the great videos!
Going to check them out now thanks nick
Nick, absolutely stunning knife! Congratulations, I feel your joy. I recently picked up the Slim and am equally in love. Phenomenal knife. I paid a G and would do it again without hesitation.
So cool love it 😎💯👍
Super-cars of the knife world.
That is an amazing work of art! Congratulations on the purchase and I'm sure you will begin cutting all available zip ties with that 😂
Wow, Ok, that was a stunning knife! Congrats on getting one!
Nick’s knife arc - inevitably drawn towards another level of fancy. Kinda the opposite of mine, but fun to watch nevertheless. Like the guy next door with the collection of luxury cars.
Congrats Nick...
simply stunning!! Kinda jealous 😂
Very nice knife!
This is one of those knives that just make me sigh and feel empty inside, because I could never afford it.
I love it.
This video should be x rated, Dang what a sexy blade.👍🏻
Not into that gaudy timascus (but gimme dat blade)….Luckily I do own a more recent Sting (the design has been refined since yours was made 🙃)…and yes…Barton’s ROCKS!
They are all beautiful. They do watch cases?
That knife is a bargain!
I'd prefer the base, more subtle model. I like the texture, but I feel overload with too much colors on the new one.
I’m not a fan of Damascus, but that Damacore on the Ishtar is blowing my mind
Wow that Damacore
It's fantastic. Not my jam but i do appreciate what it is.
That knife is WAY outside my price range, but that's sure beautiful.
I'm happy with my reate jack 1.0 it's a beast and 450$ I could totally see going to the 2k price range for the rite pice I don't have too too many a dozen or so but I'm really picky about what I pick up
Not a fan of Damascus or Timascus, but whoa that is a beautiful knife. I think because the Timascus isn’t that crazy in your face colors and patterns. The Damacore pattern is also one that if
I were to get a Damascus blade would be my choice. Great acquisition and I’m sure it’s going to
bring you a lot of joy. Are you going to use it? Be well
I just received my first Herman knife. A standard Ishtar that I bought on the recommendations of both your good self and @metalcomplex. It is an amazing piece of workmanship and definitely won't be my last. Polish Custom Knives were a pleasure to deal with to and had no dramas shipping to Australia.
How much did it end up costing? And was there any issues coming through customs?
How long did shipping take?
Only asking cause there's one im looking at on the site and im in Australia too
@@pronoobx G'day mate! It ended up being pretty quick delivery, they use DHL. I had to send customs a pic of the knife and a link to Polish Custom Knives website to get it through, but that was no real hassle and DHL took care of it, just monitor your tracking and if it gets hung up jump on the dog and bone to DHL. A basic US to AU converter on google will give you a decent cost estimate. Definitely worth it, great Knife! Smooth as!
@@bennyc409 thanks. Did you send the link and pic as a precaution or did they ask for it after it had got into the country?
Its very tempting after watching reviews on them
@@pronoobx nah mate I realised the package had stalled in customs so called DHL and that's what they needed. No worries though.
@@bennyc409 oh right, so nothing to worry about really just order and keep an eye on the tracking. Thanks again.
Now to decide if i want to pull the trigger haha
Makes sense to me, not everybody has room for 30 more Delicas.
Great video and beautiful knives Nick! For an idiot with some gorgeous knives, you speak with great wisdom and truth, SUPPORT ARTISTS. They bring beauty into our world and raise our minds to contemplate nobler things in life.
Heck yeah
Niice
I wish they made something along the lines of the Sting with carbon scales and washers and a bit harder M398...
That knife really needs a serrated edge.....(I kid, I KID!)
When a company makes a knife that makes the guy who sees ALL of the knives giddy, I'd say they did something right.
It must just be a trick of the camera, because Nick goes on and on about the fit and finish off these knives, but it sure looks like that inlay on the Ishtar doesn't line up properly. I went back and watched the review and There was no mention of it. But man does it look like it's either proud of the scale or there is a gap you could get a fingernail in near the point of the inlay.
The Inlay on the Ishtar is higher up, but uniformly so all around. That's the aesthetic.
Ah, okay I can see that. I Guess I assumed that the inlay should be flush with the rest of the scale like the other one. Thanks for the reply!
Maybe you should do a comparison of $3000 knives, maybe that'll put the return of value in perspective.
That's beautiful. Has Pete done edge and mustard testing on Damacore yet? If not, maybe you should send it off to him to have a go? 😉
Frankly I think this needs to be a shot across the bow of America makers. Like hey guys, step your game up. This is what you are competing with
I mean, there are plenty of small American makers competing well here. Koenig, SharpByDesign/Brian Nadeau, Holt, Skiff, and a few others.
@@NickShabazz fair enough. Even Ozz machine company to your point. I just feel like I haven't heard you or other reviewers gush about those brands as much as Herman. I guess I'll just chalk it up to recency bias and also gush at that sting. Great video Nick
I think that's recency bias. Check my videos on the Skiff or Holt Specter. :)
No cóż ,piękny.
Dibs?
Nick flexing!
Not for me, but they do o look cool 😎 nice video.
These verses of shiragorov what would you recommend
Flex!!
2500 DAMN i am struggling with the price on an Olamic
Only one thing missing Nick. You didn't say but I digress. It's probably a first on your channel.
The wharncliffe is so thin and sexy. Knife porn like this should be illegal!
How would you compare it to a Shirogorov?
4:20 swish
Lovely!
The proud inlay looks like a mistake though. Less so in person?
What is Diemascus I keep hearing
What purpose do we serve besides bullying you with money
Do you still have a grimsmo Rask? How does it compare to the sting? They seem very similar
Thats one sexy knife.
We watch his videos, he buys $2000 lint collectors.
I don't even like that a little. I would not keep it if it was given to me but would happily sell it to someone that would appreciate it.
It’s your ‘damma’ knife
Wisdom or cheese Wizz. It's all the same ;)
The milling on the timascus looks like build in finger prints and killed the aesthetics
Eye of the beholder.
Went full scotty kilmer at 7:02
I did like them till i heard the price. whehhhh
"It's going to be my everyday carry". Are you insane.
I’ll admit from an appreciation of metallurgy, the patterns are stunning. And from a knife-making standpoint, a fantastic example of workmanship. I appreciate their using a liner lock instead of taking the lazy way out with a frame lock. Very impressive. But crap people, can’t they figure out a way to etch titanium into different colors? The combination of purple and blue in the timascus is Just a turn off for me every time. I do find it more pleasing than the other knives with the combination of dull gray and the bluepurple. But I just find it to be irritating to my eyes, like crimson and gray. Sorry OSU fans, but those two colors are hideous together. Lol. But the patterns and workmanship alone on this one could make me overlook the color thing cus it’s just that damn stunning otherwise. If I were in the market for a knife that expensive that is.
