for $1000, those issues that you addressed seemed like a pretty big deal. If you are buying a bali over 500, there should be no issues with it durability or design wise.
Great vid, just wandering if you will ever do a vid on the Ti Lucha? By the way keep up your honest reviews, I personally appreciate that you tell it how it is and don’t hold back on what you think.
Orca 100% just cause the monarch being a pinless design, it had alot of problems, basically the handle gap gets smaller and smaller until they are touching each other...and that is a big flaw for a thousand dollar Bali, unfortunately steel smacking titanium is not the best.
You're off the mark regarding bushings and bearings you just never felt a good bearing knife other than that one you have there. Plastic cage bearings on good they need replaced with skiffs
Take note of the date, I have tried multiple bearings knives since this video was published , even v1 and v2 elbs which are regarded to have some of the best bearings thanks to the ikbs, in fact I made a video on it. So yes I have tried a good bearing knife. Bushings are still better.

I never heard anyone call bushings smoother then bearings, most people's main complaint is that bearings are super fast not the other way around

I’m getting one in for anodizing so it’s definitely a possibility
Are you gonna be doing tutorials again? I would love to learn how you do the choker fanning. Pretty good review by the way
Actually JK machines the knife Joe helps with finishing them. They also both worked together on the design.
Really nice review bro!
If you want actually great feeling bearings, ELB and JL are masters of bearing balis.
JL?

monarch vs orca? Your thoughts
